Chapter 36: Luck
Chapter 36: Luck
"I'll continue."
On the stage, Tian Zhen had a troubled look on his face. He didn't feel that it was easy for him to win just now.
A Bone Refining demonic beast was pulled up.
It was a mystic rock tortoise with extremely strong defense. The score was marked as seven points.
It was even higher than the score of fire-biting tiger which Li He had defeated.
The mystic rock tortoise got onto the stage and kept hiding in its shell. Tian Zhen took the opportunity to go forward and landed a few strikes with his palms.
His palm technique was indeed unique. When he used it, one could hear the faint sound of thunder.
The palm force continuously landed on the rock tortoise's body, which was covered in a hard shell. After several strikes, the impact of his attacks penetrated through its body and caused the stage to shake!
Crack!
The mystic rock tortoise seemed to have been awakened by the strike. It stretched out its four limbs and suddenly exerted force.
Its body was like a small mountain as it leapt into the air and dove in Tian Zhen's direction.
Boom!
Its heavy body fell down.
Several cracks appeared on the white stone platform.
At the final moment, Tian Zhen rolled and dodged the attack.
When he stood up, his expression was uncertain. At the same time, his palm prints changed and his palms overlapped.
The booming thunder became even more intense!
The crowd below the stage was a little shocked.
"Ha!"
Tian Zhen took advantage of the time when the mystic rock tortoise was still in a daze to circle to the back and strike with all his strength.
The body of the tortoise had actually moved by an inch!
Moreover, the force penetrated through the tortoise shell and struck the tortoise's body. The remaining force from the impact continued on and broke a flagpole below the stage.
"He has actually already cultivated the force." Luo Ran's gaze slightly focused.
If he mastered the force, it meant that it was only a matter of time before he broke through to the Spiral Force realm.
At Tian Zhen's age, once he broke through to the Spiral Force realm, the probability of him entering the inner sect was very high.
In other words, Tian Zhen was actually a quasi-inner disciple.
"You've misjudged him. An expert doesn't necessarily have to be flamboyant," Ge Zhili said coldly.
He was used to fighting with Luo Ran. They would take a jab at each other at every opportunity. None was ever pleased by the other.
Luo Ran was indignant, but Ge Zhili was right. A Bone Refining expert who knew how to use force was indeed an expert.
Even if he were to face him, he might not necessarily win.
"Continue."
After Tian Zhen defeated the mystic rock tortoise, he did not leave the stage.
Soon enough, another Blood Refining demonic beast was pulled up.
This Blood Refining demonic beast had a total of five points, which meant that its strength was extremely close to a weaker Blood Refining demonic beast.
In the end, Tian Zhen relied on his unique palm technique to win by a narrow margin.
After this, he walked down the stage.
"Senior Brother Tian, everyone has been deceived by you. How can you say that you aren't good at close combat? You're clearly very strong!"
Yang Yi stood up and smiled bitterly.
"If I am dragged into a battle of attrition, I will definitely lose, so I can only end it quickly. Coincidentally, my family's Thunder Pattern Palm is good at dealing eruptive blows. Coincidentally, my constitution is extremely compatible with this martial art, so I was lucky enough to defeat three demonic beasts."
Tian Zhen's expression was solemn.
No one knew if what he said was true or not.
In any case, Yang Yi did not dare to believe it.
He was afraid of being dragged into a battle of attrition, so he could only defeat the enemy with one move.
There was no problem with that.
After a wave of climax, it was the Jiang Sisters' turn from the Anther Gang.
The elder sister, Jiang Qing excelled in using whips.
Her whips were chaotic. They resembled dancing wild snakes. She defeated a Blood Refining and Bone Refining demonic beast and scored 10 points.
Jiang Hong, on the other hand, was weaker. At the Blood Refining stage, she was able to defeat a four-point Blood Refining demonic beast.
This could only be said to be within expectations.
Next, it was Yang Yi's turn.
After Tian Zhen's outburst, everyone was looking forward to the performance of the other Qixia sect disciple.
"Junior Brother Yang, your sword," Tian Zhen reminded.
"No need." Yang Yi smiled and walked onto the stage.
"He's arrogant." Jiang Hong was watching him.
Since he brought his sword here, he should be a sword cultivator. If he was not using it now, it could only mean that he wanted to hide his strength.
After all, this was the first round, so it was understandable if he did not want to reveal all of his moves. However, usually, the participants would only be thinking of conserving their energy or refrain from using a technique or two. It was rare for someone to forgo their weapon altogether, like what Yang Yi did.
Yang Yi stepped onto the stage.
He quietly waited for the members of the Rope Fire Gang to pull the demonic beast over.
This was a Blood Refining wind spirit monkey.
It was worth four points.
The moment the cage was opened, the wind spirit monkey dashed out quickly.
However, it did not pounce on Yang Yi. Instead, it grabbed the gang member who was transporting the cage, scratched him with its claws, and flew to the side like the wind.
This scene was somewhat unexpected.
Yang Yi's eyes were filled with suspicion. He quickly went forward, wanting to block its path.
However, the wind spirit monkey was extremely agile. It knew the difference between itself and Yang Yi, so it ran away and did not fight.
It nimbly ran to the edge of the arena.
It even turned around and squeaked a few times, as if it was mocking him.
Whoosh!
A stone flew over and pierced through its head.
The wind spirit monkey was still grinning a moment ago. The next moment, its body stiffened and it collapsed to the ground.
"Change it to another one."
The person who made the move was Mo Wuxie.
The job of the supervisor was not only to protect the safety of the contestants, but also to deal with the demonic beasts that wanted to escape.
The gang member who was scratched was carried down to have his injuries treated.
Then, someone else pulled a demonic beast onto the stage.
Yang Yi cupped his fists to greet the gang member.
Then, with a solemn expression, he stared at the demonic beast that was on the stage. If it were to escape again, it would be too embarrassing.
This was a four-legged lizard that was half the height of a human. Its skin was rough and its flesh was thick. It was also given four points.
Yang Yi did not recognize it.
However, it was only at the Blood Refining stage, so he did not hesitate. He channeled his strength forward and punched a few times.
The four-legged lizard's skin was rough and its flesh was thick. Moreover, there seemed to be some kind of poison on its skin.
Although Yang Yi's punches were effective and made the beast scream in pain, he still felt that his fists were slightly numb.
He made a prompt decision and took a piece of cloth to wrap around his fists.
After dodging the four-legged lizard's tongue, he leaned forward and punched heavily at its head.
This punch was not fancy, it was purely a crushing force.
Boom!
The four-legged lizard fell to the ground.
Even the ground below was somewhat shattered.
Yang Yi jumped back and stood still.
This was his first time defeating a demonic beast.
This feeling of surging emotions was hard to describe.
It was not good, but it was not bad either.
After calming his mind, he said, "Continue."
"Although the poison of this green-skinned poison lizard isn't fatal, the numbness will last for a while. Are you sure you want to continue challenging a Bone Refining demonic beast?" Luo Ran exclaimed.
"Continue." Yang Yi did not waste his breath.
A black striped bear that was two stories tall was pulled up.
"Ha, 10 points! Brother Yang, you've won the lottery. That's the strongest combat strength of a demonic beast." Luo Ran could not help but laugh.
If it was given 10 points, it meant that this black striped bear was extremely strong.
An ordinary Bone Refining martial artist might not be a match for it.
It was one thing for Yang Yi to draw a 10 points score card. For him to be matched against a 10 point Bone Refining demonic beast now, he was not very lucky.
"I reckon that the first person to be eliminated will appear shortly. His fists are poisoned, and he can only use 70 to 80 percent of his strength," Jiang Hong gloated.
If Yang Yi had not been so pretentious in the beginning and used his sword to fight against the green-skinned poison lizard, this would not have happened.
From her perspective, Yang Yi had brought this upon himself, and was not worthy of sympathy.
Yang Yi did not pay attention to the movements below the stage and silently sized up the black-striped bear that was twice as tall as him.
With his level of strength, he could roughly gauge the difference between the his enemy's strength and his own. Therefore, as long as this black-striped bear did not know how to use force, he had full confidence in winning!
