TFHS: Chapter 171

After seeing Xiong Kui appear, everyone showed surprise, and Gong Liquan finally felt that he had turned the game around.

It would be best if Xiong Kui could seriously injure Bai Qiaomo so that he wouldn’t be able to participate in the arena battles in the next two days.

“Xiong Kui, this is a very strong player. You can let go and fight.”

“Okay, watch me.” Xiong Kui patted his chest with a banging sound.

Everyone could tell what Gong Liquan meant. Some of the cultivators watching the battle showed their concern for Bai Qiaomo.

Ji Yuan frowned. He hadn’t expected Gong Liquan to bring Xiong Kui out.

Xiong Kui was a brainless guy and wasn’t originally on the list of contestants. However, Ji Yuan believed that his name must be on the list now. It would be easy for Gong Liquan and the others to do this.

“Senior Brother Zong, will Bai Qiaomo be okay?”

Zong Yupao became curious this time. “Aren’t you very confident in Bai Qiaomo and thought that I might not be his opponent? Why did you change this time?”

Ji Yuan choked up. “Hasn’t he fought dozens of battles without a break? I’m worried that he has overexerted himself.”

Zong Yupao’s lips curled. “Do you think Bai Qiaomo is so stupid that he hasn’t considered the current situation? Just look at Feng Ming.”

Feng Ming happened to be waving at Bai Qiaomo in the audience at this time. “Brother Bai, kill that big guy!”

Ji Yuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. It turned out that he was worrying in vain.

Bai Qiaomo heard Feng Ming’s voice and smiled. Then he leaned on the spear with one hand, took out a pill with his other hand, and put it into his mouth. At the same time, he urged his dantian to speed up the absorption of the medicinal power of the pill and vital energy. It seemed that a vortex of vital energy formed around him.

Zong Yupao had good eyesight and noticed Bai Qiaomo’s abnormality at a glance. “He has a Green Yuan Bead on him. The quality isn’t bad. Perhaps it is medium-grade. In addition, if I’m not mistaken, the pill he took should be a best-grade pill.”

Ji Yuan suddenly had a headache. He really worried in vain. “Why am I finding out that these two guys are richer than those of us in Imperial City? Are these things so easy to get? They even spent more than 10 million yuan crystals.”

Zong Yupao was silent for a moment. Then he said, “I have enough of other things, including yuan crystals, but I lack the best-grade pills.”

Ji Yuan rolled his eyes. “Who doesn’t lack best-grade pills? Of course, except these two guys.”

Zong Yupao was silent. He found that he was actually a bit envious of Bai Qiaomo for meeting a good alchemist and booking him in advance, marrying into the family without hesitation.

Zong Yupao couldn’t help thinking that if there was a genius alchemist like the ger called Feng Ming, he would marry that person without hesitation instead of just immersing himself in cultivation and letting his father worry about his marriage.

It was a pity that he didn’t know earlier that there was an alchemist genius like Feng Ming.

Fortunately, Feng Ming married Bai Qiaomo early, and Bai Qiaomo himself was gifted and very powerful.

Otherwise, countless forces in Imperial City would have their eyes on Feng Ming and try every means to separate him and Bai Qiaomo, making Feng Ming their own. The imperial family was no exception.

Bai Qiaomo’s battle today was likely to dispel many people’s little thoughts.

It wasn’t known if Bai Qiaomo did it on purpose. Zong Yupao looked at Bai Qiaomo on the stage and thought playfully.

Not everyone could see the situation. Gong Liquan and his accomplices felt proud when they saw Bai Qiaomo desperately swallowing pills to restore his strength.

As expected, Xiong Kui’s appearance scared Bai Qiaomo. Wasn’t he very rampant before? Let’s see what he could do after being defeated by Xiong Kui.

They couldn’t wait to see Bai Qiaomo being defeated.

Xiong Kui looked like a humanoid wild beast, and it was similar inside. Unlike other cultivators, his eyes flashed with excitement and bloodthirst. He was eager for a bloody battle.

If he grabbed the little guy on stage by the shoulders with both hands, he could tear him in half.

He had long been eager to get on the arena. The fight between those guys in the arena seemed extremely boring to him. How could it be called a fight without blood?

He walked toward the arena step by step. Before going onto the arena, he looked at Feng Ming, who was jumping violently, and showed a malicious smile.

Cheng Miao was shocked when he saw this. Shi Yan quickly blocked his grandson behind him and clenched his fists, wanting to teach this guy a lesson.

Feng Ming wasn’t afraid at all. He clenched his fists and waved them. Did Xiong Kui think he was scared? Was it a big deal to be big?

Feng Ming shouted even louder, “Brother Bai, kill him! Don’t let him enter the finals. He is an eyesore.”

“Okay.” Bai Qiaomo replied without hesitation while still absorbing vital energy.

Qiu Yi ran to Ji Yuan’s side and was a bit worried when he saw this scene. “Isn’t Feng Ming worried about Bai Qiaomo at all?”

“Why is Junior Brother Qiu here?”

“I was originally practicing alchemy in the pharmacy, but I came over to take a look when I heard about the situation here.”

Qiu Yi lost to Feng Ming and was very upset, so he seized every opportunity to improve his alchemy skills. He concentrated on alchemy while others watched the competition.

Ji Yuan said, “It is good to come out and relax. Junior Brother Qiu, don’t be too tense and worry about what they will do. In any case, I don’t think they look like they need anyone to worry about them.”

He didn’t forget the strange look Feng Ming had given him before. That person was sick.

Qiu Yi was speechless, but he still had to see it with his own eyes.

On the stage, Bai Qiaomo had a cold look in his eyes, and his aura rose again. The speed of the vortex of energy in his dantian accelerated again, and the energy from outside rushed in, causing a huge impact on his meridians. However, Bai Qiaomo didn’t even frown.

Xiong Kui jumped up, his body rising high.

Then he slammed heavily on the arena. The onlookers heard a loud noise. Then they saw that the surface of the arena was cracked. They were shocked. The body of this big guy must be extremely strong.

At this moment, another bang was heard. Then someone found that some fragments fell in front of Bai Qiaomo. It was only then that someone realized what it was.

“The fragments of the Green Yuan Bead.”

“Oh my god, Bai Qiaomo absorbed all the vital energy of the Green Yuan Bead, so the Green Yuan Bead shattered.”

At this time, the surge of vital energy on the stage also stopped but Bai Qiaomo’s body was surging with vitality. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he had fully recovered, and there was no sign of overconsumption at all. How could he recover so quickly?

Some people suspected that the pill he swallowed before was the best-grade pill provided by Feng Ming. Even if the number of best-grade pills refined by Feng Ming was small, it should be enough to supply his own people.

Combine this with the replenishment of the vital energy in the Green Yuan Bead, and the onlookers were envious and jealous. It was great to have a genius alchemist around, so that the best-grade pills could be reserved for themselves.

The disciples of Sihong Academy only found out during the alchemist competition that Feng Ming was able to refine best-grade pills.

The reason why they didn’t appear on the counter of Wuyi Pavilion was because Feng Ming kept all the best-grade pills to himself.

The more they thought about it, the more jealous they became of Bai Qiaomo. However, the disciples of Sihong Academy were definitely on Bai Qiaomo’s side at this time. They hoped that Bai Qiaomo would do as Feng Ming said and defeat these big guys, preferably preventing him from entering the finals.

Bai Qiaomo gripped the spear tightly and threw it forward. The spear made a buzzing sound and seemed to come alive. The fighting spirit in the arena was instantly ignited as the protective formation rose up.

Xiong Kui shouted loudly and strode toward Bai Qiaomo with big strides. At the same time, he clenched his fists and smashed them forward hard.

The audience had no doubt that if Bai Qiaomo was really hit by this fist, he would probably be beaten to the point of vomiting up blood.

Bai Qiaomo didn’t bother dodging and even thrust forward his spear.

The tip of the spear collided with Xiong Kui’s fist, making a sound like a metal collision. Then Bai Qiaomo swept to the side like light smoke, and the spear changed its offensive direction, sweeping toward Xiong Kui.

The audience members were quite surprised. They looked closely at Xiong Kui’s fist and found that it didn’t even break his skin. How could his physical defense be so powerful? How could they continue fighting?

Gong Liquan and the others all showed happy expressions, eager for Xiong Kui to slap Bai Qiaomo into meatloaf.

Xiong Kui was their secret weapon. Not only was he a humanoid beast, but he was also a humanoid weapon and didn’t need the help of other weapons.

There were many banging sounds on the stage, which were the sounds of Bai Qiaomo’s spear stabbing, sweeping or hitting Xiong Kui.

However, there were no signs of injury on Xiong Kui’s body, which made the other essence liquid realm cultivators think. If they were Bai Qiaomo, how would they break through when faced with an opponent like Xiong Kui, who had an extremely strong body?

They could see that Bai Qiaomo’s current battle strategy was to use his superior speed and flexibility to dodge Xiong Kui’s attacks while trying various means of attacks to see if they would work. However, they couldn’t see any results now.

Cheng Miao saw that Bai Qiaomo’s figure on the stage was so fast that it left an afterimage, but he was unable to cause any harm to Xiong Kui. Cheng Miao couldn’t help grabbing his grandfather’s arm in a worried manner. “Grandpa, will Brother Bai Qiaomo be okay?”

Shi Yan wanted to roll his eyes, but he held back when seeing his grandson’s worried look. He replied in a low voice, “Don’t worry, this kid can’t lose.”

This kid’s goal was to become the champion. How could he fail now? It was just that his real means hadn’t been used yet. He didn’t believe that Bai Qiaomo only had this little means of attack now.

This made Cheng Miao feel a bit relieved.

Chen Tianlang and Pei Yingmin were a bit worried because they didn’t know Bai Qiaomo’s background very well, but Pei Yingmin was seizing this time so that more disciples from Sihong Academy could enter the finals.

The arena that was originally able to withstand the battles of those at the peak stage of the essence liquid realm now had many cracks on its surface.

People like Zong Yupao noticed that these cracks weren’t created by Xiong Kui alone.

Bai Qiaomo only showed his speed, but anyone who paid close attention would find that his physical strength wasn’t weak. He stomped his feet lightly on the stage, leaving several cracks on the stage.
