Chapter 14: You're blocking the way!

  Just as Feng was about to step up onto the last step, he suddenly felt a piercing chill coming towards him...

  A light spin, taking advantage of the wind's momentum, dodged that attack and leaped onto the stage!

  Standing on the stage, his eyes gleamed with a fierce black light, coldly staring at his opponent, his aura was in no way inferior to that of an elementary Xuan Master.

  Originally, Feng Ji was not planning to take anyone's life. Although he loved martial arts like his own life, he wasn't a bloodthirsty person. Moreover, he always believed that since it was a competition, they should stop at the point of defeat, why must they take someone's life? However, the actions of the person in front of him had completely infuriated him, so he also didn't plan to show any mercy!

  After making the decision, Feng Li immediately counterattacked...

  While in the audience seats, Leng Ruo Xue and others had their eyes fixed tightly on Feng Jie who was on the stage...

  "This kid is quite clever." The old man nodded in satisfaction and praised him.

  "People can die in this match, right?" Cold Snow looked at Blue Ming and asked lightly.

  "Eh! Yes." Lan Meng replied, gritting his teeth, while in his heart he mourned for the mysterious master for three seconds. Alas! What a jinxed guy, you say who else would be unlucky enough to offend that extremely protective lass.

  After getting a definite answer, Leng Ruo Xue stopped talking and focused on watching the match on stage.

  The strong wind on the stage, after a loud and frantic blast, directly summoned its own beast...

  "Wow, it's a dragon again!" Someone in the audience shouted as they saw the giant dragon reappear on stage.

  "What the Nima, when did the dragon clan become a big white cabbage?" someone cursed with envy.

  For a moment, the audience seats were in an uproar, and everyone was unable to remain calm...

  Lan Meng was also stunned, staring at the massive object hovering above the arena, speechless for a long time. After regaining his composure, he couldn't help but wipe away the cold sweat on his forehead, thinking to himself, "This is truly abnormal!" The Cold Snow group actually had two dragons! It's known that dragon clans are extremely proud and have always disdained forming contracts with humans, let alone being forced into one. Moreover, dragon clans possess formidable strength, making it impossible for anyone to coerce them into a contract. Alas, he wondered how they managed to achieve this.

  "Xiao Xue, you actually didn't tell me that you have two dragons as contract beasts!" Lan Ming looked at Leng Ruo Xue with a hint of resentment and complained.

  "What's there to brag about?" asked Leng Ruoxue disbelievingly.

  "On the continent of Haotian, I've never heard of any strong practitioner who can contract with the dragon tribe." Lan Meng said very seriously. Alas! Can this girl's reaction be normal? Why can she be so calm?

  "That's because you've seen too little, the Dragon Clan isn't anything special." Suddenly spoke Ice Qí, who had been closing his eyes and pretending to sleep.

  “……”

  Lan Meng felt depressed, this little dog actually said he had seen too little, wooo... how did he fall to the point of being despised by a little dog now?!

  "Haha! Xiao Bing said it so well." Seeing Lan Meng eating, Leng Ruo Xue couldn't help but laugh out loud and stroked the soft fur of Bing Ji.

  At this time, the strong wind on the stage had already ended the battle. As for his opponent, he was pressed into a meat pie by the giant dragon's big buttocks and died again.

  After the judge announced Feng Ji's victory, he hastily jumped off the stage and returned to Leng Ruo Xue and the others.

  "I've finished the task." After saying that, Feng Jie sat down.

  "It's two o'clock." Leng Ruoxue reminded Xu Heng with a glance.

  "Hmph! They only won because of the giant dragon, it doesn't count as real skill." Xu Heng said with some indignation, but in fact, he was secretly envious of the two old men's good fortune. Why did they get to have a giant dragon?! They were just mere mystics after all!

  "Isn't having a beast pet a part of one's strength? If you have the ability, why not go contract a dragon too? Don't be like someone who can't get grapes and says the grapes are sour!" Leng Ruoxue said with a hint of mockery.

  "You... don't be too proud of yourself, there are still six games left. The real tough opponents are the ones behind you, the previous ones were too weak." Xu Heng retorted, not wanting to show weakness. At this moment, he really hated these few ugly freaks, but he was very confident that they would definitely lose in the next few games.

  "Thanks for reminding me, I'm waiting to collect the money." said Leng Ruoxue with a smile.

  "Little doll, I'm on stage now!" The old man said at this time.

  "Hmm, be careful!" Leng Ruoxue reminded, having the precedent of the previous strong wind, so they had to raise their vigilance.

  The old man stood up and slowly walked onto the stage...

  In just over ten minutes, the old man defeated his opponent without even using his strongest move, and after the referee announced the result, he hastily returned to his seat.

  Then Lin Liang took the stage...

  He also easily won without using Beast Beast.

  Next, it was the turn of the Feng family's eldest elder to take the stage. Although it took a bit of trouble, the result was still satisfactory. After his giant dragon appeared, the audience on the stage was blown away...

  "If it's snow, we have 500 million, right?" The old master of the Wind family stepped down from the stage and asked directly.

  "Uh, there are still three games left. If we win all of them, then we'll have 1.2 billion." Lan Ruoxue said with a faint smile, heh heh, this money is really easy to make.

  "The remaining three games, your opponents are all very strong, you will definitely not win." Xu Heng said somewhat exasperatedly, damn it, how did these people get so lucky? They actually won every game, it's infuriating.

  "What if we win? Do you want to raise the stakes? Or, is anyone among you daring enough to bet with me?" Cold Snow gazed at Zhou Kun and others not far away, saying provocatively.

  Still want to gamble? Xu Heng looked at Leng Ruo Xue with a strange expression, they had gambled several rounds, as a result, his wealth accumulated over the years all went into her pocket. He didn't have any money left to gamble, and he also didn't dare to gamble with her again. His greatest wish now was that in the next three matches, even if they lost one round, at least it would leave him with a few hundred million.

  "What? No one dares to gamble with me? You guys are really too timid!" Cold Snow continued to provoke them, seeing that they had not reacted for half a day.

  "I'll bet with you, how much?" Sun Meilin said loudly, she couldn't stand being looked down upon by an ugly freak, and besides, she didn't believe that these ugly freaks would win all three matches in the back.

  "Of course it's still 12 billion, do you have it?" Leng Ruoxue asked with a hint of skepticism as she sized up Sun Meilin.

  "I'll bet double, no, I'll bet three billion, do you dare to bet?" Sun Meilin shouted angrily, and Leng Ruo Xue's suspicious gaze made her feel uncomfortable all over.

  "If you're not afraid of losing, then what do I have to be afraid of betting?" Lan Ruoxue said calmly, after all, she was a master of swindling people out of their money. If someone was willing to give her money, she had no reason to refuse!

  "You're a goner, Ugly Eight!" Sun Meilin said confidently, as if she had already envisioned the scene of Leng Ruo Xue being trampled under her feet and humiliated in every way.

  "Let's not talk about winning or losing for now. According to the old rules, bring out the money and I'll check it first." said Leng Ruo Xue with a smile.

  "You ugly freak, do you think I'd still try to welch on a debt?" Sun Meilin bellowed, hardly daring to believe it. Damn it, in the entire vast expanse of the Great Heaven Continent, aside from this ugly freak, no one else had ever dared to treat her like this! She truly hated Leng Ruoxue to the bone now.

  "Three billion is no small sum. If you can't come up with it, I won't bet with you." Leng Ruoxue said in a somewhat chilly tone.

  "Ah, Lü'er! Don't be too hard on her, she's the young mistress of the Sun family after all. But it seems like she really can't handle 3 billion!" Old Man Zhou said with a very understanding tone, but in his heart, he was already laughing out loud, haha, this money is earned so easily, you know, Lü'er and her two companions are actually the strongest among everyone, so this money is simply picked up like that.

  "Yes, let's just forget it! Let's not make things difficult for Miss Sun." Lin Liangyi said with a serious expression, his words implying that he was considering Sun Meilin's feelings.

  "Xue Er, let's not gamble anymore. The last three matches are all tough ones, and we really don't have much confidence in winning." Leng Jingtian also advised, his strong and handsome face subtly showing concern.

  "Who says I can't take it out? Here!" Having heard the three of them, Sun Meilin angrily took out her own silver card and handed it to Leng Ruxue.

  Leng Ruoxue took the silver card, checked the balance, and then handed it back to Lan Ming. In her heart, she couldn't help but sigh, "Alas! These aristocratic families are really too wealthy, casually giving their children tens of billions of dollars as pocket money, it's truly too extravagant!"

  Lan Meng took the silver card again, and his heart was already somewhat numb. Because he felt that Leng Ruo Xue and others were really too abnormal... He wondered why he felt so unsuccessful compared to them?

  "Director Zhou, don't you gamble?" Leng Ruo Xue shifted her gaze to Zhou Kun's face, which had been dark the whole time, and asked lightly. She was also somewhat surprised that this time Zhou Kun didn't stop him; wasn't Sun Mei Lin his cousin?

  "I'm not interested." Zhou Kun said with a gloomy face and an unpleasant tone.

  "What a pity." Cold as Snow's face was full of regretful expression.

  "Xue Er, I'm going on stage now!" The demon suddenly spoke up.

  "Ah, you demon, you must work hard! Thirty billion is beckoning us." Lan Ruoxue said with a light smile.

  "Don't worry, I won't let you down." The demon lord guaranteed, and it wasn't just a matter of winning this one battle, if Snowy wanted the moon in the sky, he would find a way to pluck it for her.

  After finishing speaking, the demon walked onto the stage with big strides and a flowing pace.

  "Do you know who his opponent is?" Sun Meilin asked with some excitement and curiosity.

  "I don't care who he is, anyway, my man will never lose." Leng Ruoxue said with great confidence. She was very clear about the strength of the demon, that guy wasn't just good at coaxing her, if anyone dared to underestimate him, they would be in trouble.

  "You're quite confident, but unfortunately, his opponent is a madman, one who won't stop until he's killed his opponent." Sun Meilin said, not caring whether Leng Ruo Xue wanted to know or not.

  "As for your opponent, haha! That's a renowned genius from the Vast Heaven Continent, so in this regard, you two are quite similar, humph! With such strong opponents, I'd love to see how you plan on winning." Sun Meilin felt a sense of pride in her heart, as if she had already seen the dawn of victory.

  And just as Sun Meilin said, the demon on the arena was indeed trapped in a fierce battle...

  On the stage of martial arts competition.

  The demon gazed coldly at his opponent, a middle-aged man in his forties with the strength of an elementary mystic. However, this person's strength was significantly stronger than Lin Liang's opponents and should be considered the strongest among all the opponents they had encountered so far. Moreover, this person was extremely ruthless and had made several attempts to kill the demon, but each time he was easily deflected by the demon, which thoroughly enraged him.

  "Damn it, what are you hiding?" the middle-aged man roared in anger, the man in front of him was as slippery as a fish, he had used many tricks, but unexpectedly, none of them worked on this person, which made him somewhat flustered.

  "I won't hide, do you want to hit me?" The demon-like figure said with a smile that was not quite a smile, his dark and shiny eyes emitting an intimidating glow. Compared to his opponent, he seemed very relaxed, and also seemed to be treating his opponent like a monkey.

  "You're not allowed to hide, let's have a fair and square fight." The middle-aged man said in a half commanding tone.

  "You want to fight fairly? What was that just now?" The demon sneered, ridiculing him. This man's methods were extremely ruthless, and he still wanted to fight fairly with him, how laughable.

  "That's what I call taking the initiative, do you understand?!" The middle-aged man said disdainfully, his fiery eyes staring at the demon like a poisonous snake, as if he wanted to put him to death.

  "Since you've said so, I'll fulfill your wish!" The evil and charming smile finally decided to take action, heh heh, who made him receive the urging gaze from his dear wife!

  A dark and mysterious power, like a shadow, wrapped itself around the middle-aged man's body, binding him tightly, while the middle-aged man didn't even have time to react...

  "Damn it, what the hell is this, let me go!" The middle-aged man roared in anger and tried to struggle free from the black rope that bound him, but he couldn't break free...

  "You've been jumping around for long enough, it's time to quiet down." The demon said calmly, and then he used his favorite fist attack again, tightly clenched fists, one after another, hitting the middle-aged man's body...

  Soon, the middle-aged man was beaten into a bloody mess. The onlookers in the audience were stunned by the violent methods of the demon, because they were all Xuan Masters and knew that no Xuan Master would give up using Xuan techniques to resort to close-range physical attacks. Hmm! This was absolutely not the kind of thinking a normal Xuan Master should have. At this point, the demon had already been proudly included in their list of abnormal cases.

  Time is slowly passing by...

  The demon was also a bit tired, so he sat down on the platform with a plop and said: "I'm tired, I'll take a break before continuing to beat you up."

  The nearby referee couldn't help but roll his eyes, he had been in the Xuan Shi Association for so many years and had never seen anyone take a break during a match, let alone continue to fight after resting. Alas! What is going on here?!

  "Judge, he fainted, what to do?" The demon looked at the judge with an innocent face, his eyes extremely pure!

  "You win." The referee looked at the figure lying on the ring, completely unable to fight back, with a bloodied and battered body, and loudly announced, while also wiping away the cold sweat from his forehead. Oh man! This guy is just too violent! At this moment, the demon had already left a deep impression of being a violent man in his heart.

  There are two ways to determine the winner in a match. One is when the opponent concedes defeat, and the other is when the opponent has no ability to fight back, of course, this is time-limited, it must exceed ten minutes. Simply put, the opponent must fall down and exceed ten minutes, otherwise, as long as they can still stand up, the match cannot be determined to be over. And that poor man obviously belongs to the second category.

  "Xu'er, I won." The demon returned to his seat and said happily, hugging Leng Ruo Xue.

  "Hmm, not bad." Leng Ruoxue praised generously, glancing at Sun Meilin and smiling slightly.

  "What's there to be proud of? There are still two more matches!" Sun Meilin shouted angrily.

  "Do I have a choice?" Leng Ruo Xue glanced at Leng Qing Tian and others beside her, asking indifferently.

  "No!" The crowd chorused in unison, leaving Sun Meilin almost breathless.

  "You... humph! Let you guys be pleased for now, the one who laughs last is the real winner." Sun Meilin said with a hard mouth, after finishing speaking, she turned her head to the side and ignored Leng Ruo Xue and others.

  Leng Ruo Xue and others naturally wouldn't bother with her either.

  "Why don't you use Xuanji?" Lan Ming asked with some curiosity, Ye Chen's methods had shocked him, eh! It was really too violent.

  "I did! Didn't you see?!" The demon blinked, with an extremely innocent expression on his face.

  "I'm saying later, why did you use your fists?" Lan Meng glared at the demon with a cold gaze, and he had a deep understanding of the skill of pretending to be stupid like Leng Ruo Xue and others.

  "I want to save my strength! Aren't there many more matches ahead? I don't want to reveal myself too early." The demon's words were a matter of course.

  "Oh!" Blue Ming nodded slightly, and the demon's words made a lot of sense.

  The game on the field continued, with some people rejoicing and others worrying, but it couldn't stop the progress of the game!

  As the first round of competition was about to come to an end, it was finally Leng Qian's turn to take the stage.

  Leng Qing nodded at everyone in the morning, then held his head high and stepped onto the stage with an air of confidence.

  His opponent was a young and beautiful woman, whose strength was equal to his, also an elementary Xuan Master. However, this woman kept making eyes at him, throwing flirtatious glances, which made him feel very disgusted.

  On the stage of martial arts competition.

  "Please spare my life!" The young woman smiled what she thought was a charming smile and said softly.

  "Enough nonsense, let's get started, don't waste any more time." Leng Qingtian said in a cold and unromantic tone.

  "You really don't know how to cherish a beauty." The young woman said with some resentment, she had always been confident in her appearance, but unexpectedly today she kicked an iron plate, which made her feel very embarrassed.

  "Your nonsense is too much!" Leng Qingtian said with some impatience, and took the lead in attacking...

  Auditorium

  The old man was laughing so hard in his seat that he was doubled over and tears were about to come out...

  "Haha! Cold kid actually encountered the beauty trick, what a pity! The woman's mind is in vain." The old man laughed and said, where did Leng Qingtian understand the person who loves flowers and jade? Using the beauty trick on him is like playing the piano to a cow! Heh heh, and that guy hates most, it's this kind of woman with a lot of heart, but also thinks she's right!

  "Xiao Lanlan, is this woman very powerful?" Cold-as-Snow asked with some curiosity after glancing at Lan Meng.

  "She's Yan Shuer, the fifth-ranked beauty of the Great Continent of Haotian. Her strength is on par with your grandfather's, but when it comes to dealing with men, she has her ways. Many powerful men have fallen under her skirt and obey her every command." Lan Meng let out a soft sigh as he explained.

  "With that little charm, she wants to seduce my grandfather? She's not even as good-looking as my maid!" Cold Snow said with some disdain. Although it is said that beauty is a woman's deadliest weapon, but if it's used on someone else, she doesn't care, however, if it's used on her grandfather, that's something she cannot tolerate.

  "Xiao Xue, there are many powerful people around Yan Xiang'er." Lan Ming reminded, implying that he should not provoke her. Unfortunately, Leng Ruo Xue would not do as he wished. The young mistress of the Sun family, who didn't even put Yan Xiang'er in her eyes, why would she be afraid of her?

  "If she didn't come to provoke me, I naturally wouldn't take the initiative to stir up trouble." Leng Ruoxue said calmly.

  While the two were talking, Leng Qingtian on the stage had already defeated his opponent cleanly and efficiently. Meanwhile, Yan Shuang'er was carried off the stage for the first time in her life.

  "Wow! This guy really doesn't know how to cherish a beauty. He's actually willing to be ruthless with such a stunning woman."

  "It's just that, however, it's also quite enjoyable to watch a beauty get beaten up."

  After Leng Qingtian won, the audience was boiling again, and many people were discussing it, while more people were gloating...

  Leng Qing Tian calmly walked down from the stage, preparing to return to his own position, but when he passed through the audience's passageway, he was blocked by a tall and sturdy man...

  "I challenge you." The burly man said with a face full of anger, his deep eyes filled with murderous intent.

  "Wow, Yan Shu'er's sworn brothers are going to avenge her!"

  "Xuan Wang actually dares to challenge a junior Xuan Master, fortunately he can say it out loud, isn't he embarrassed!"

  The audience began to discuss again, and Leng Qingtian also learned the identity of the man in front of him from those gossiping voices.

  Xuan Wang, still the same woman from just now!

  However, just now on the stage, life and death were not considered, but now that we have already left the stage, Leng Qingtian really didn't have any extra patience to entangle with him.

  "Get out of the way, you're blocking the road!" Coldly said Tian Tian, with a hint of coldness in his eyes. Humph! What about the Dark King? He didn't believe that as a Dark King, he would dare to kill him in public!

  "I've said it before, I'm going to challenge you." The burly man repeated stubbornly, seeking revenge for his woman without regard for his own identity or the rules of Xiangyang City.

  "I refuse!" Leng Qing Tian coldly said, then tried to bypass the burly man, but he was like a small mountain blocking his way.

  "You don't dare to fight? I've never seen a Xuan Shi as cowardly as you." The big man sneered with contempt.

  "I've never seen a Xuan Master as shameless as you, the great Xuan King actually dares to challenge me, a low-level Xuan Master, and asks if I dare to accept. I don't know whether it's me who is stupid or you who is stupid!" Cold Tian sneered coldly, humph! After all, he was once a great general, as the saying goes, "lose the battle but not the formation". Although his strength may not be comparable to this man, in terms of momentum, he absolutely cannot lose.

  Leng Qingtian's words resonated with many people in the audience. In the vast continent of Huatian, it was not uncommon for the strong to bully the weak. However, many people did not have Leng Qingtian's aura, charisma, and courage, so at this moment, they admired and revered him greatly, because he had spoken out their innermost thoughts.

  "Grandfather, what's wrong?" At this time, a strange and cold figure like snow appeared, walking over with the demon.

  "It's nothing, just met a roadblock." Leng Qingtian explained softly and used his eyes to signal to let his granddaughter feel at ease.

  "It seems like it's not a good dog!" Cold-as-Snow said indifferently after glancing at the unfamiliar muscular man.

  "Ugly freak, who are you calling a dog?" The strong man heard this and suddenly got angry.

  "There's a saying that goes 'a good dog doesn't block the way', who's blocking someone else's path, of course it refers to who." Leng Ruoxue smiled and explained.

  "You're looking for death!" The sturdy man got angry and casually released his own mysterious skill...

  However, Xuanji was unable to emit it as he had wished!

  "What? Won't you be too weak in your Xuanli, unable to even release your Xuantong? Alas! You must cultivate properly! Don't spend all day challenging this and that for the sake of a woman. Be careful not to kick an iron plate, or else you'll lose your own life." Leng Ruoxue's words were like those of an elder, serious and heartfelt in her advice, with a gaze full of deep expectation, as if she had high hopes for him.

  And that sturdy man was educated by Leng Ruoxue's coldness, and he became dazed and a bit silly...

  Even the audience closer to them was stunned for a moment, and in their hearts, they couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow! This woman is really awesome, she even dares to educate the mysterious king!"

  "Grandpa, let's go back to our seats!" said Leng Ruoxue, and before leaving, she looked at the man who was still in a daze with a hint of disappointment.

  "Alright." Leng Qingtian suppressed his smile and followed Sun Nu back to their seats.

  As for the sturdy man, by the time he came back to himself, Cold-as-Snow and others were already out of his line of sight.

  An hour later.

  "It's my turn." Leng Ruoxue stood up from her seat and said, this was already the last ten matches of the first round, unexpectedly, she didn't appear until so late.

  "Xiaoxue, be careful." Lan Meng said with some concern.

  "Don't worry, I'm here, Xiaoxue won't lose a single hair." Bing Qi guaranteed.

  "I advise you to just concede as soon as you go on stage, you're not even a match for Su Nan." Sun Meilin fell silent for a long time before speaking again, and with an expression that seemed to be considering Han Leng's feelings.

  "Thanks for the reminder, but retreating without a fight is not my style." Lan Ruoxue said calmly. Since Su Nan was a genius, she had to teach him a lesson, how could he just admit defeat as soon as he got on stage?

  After finishing speaking, Leng Ruo Xue left her seat and proudly jumped onto the stage...

  By the way

  Thank you for the beautiful crystal and flowers from jenhui.

  Thank you Qīn Mèng Gōng Chǎng, 734760280, wlhxy96 for your votes.
