Chapter 161 Tiger Roar Mountain Forest
"Yun Xiao, this kid, seems to have some tricks up his sleeve. It’s just unclear if he can truly defeat Guan Tong!"
Mo Qing, slightly lost in thought, suddenly heard a peculiar voice beside her and involuntarily turned her head for a glance. However, she did not join the conversation.
Mo Qing was intelligent and perceptive, aware that Xue Gong had always harbored some hidden sentiments towards her. Reasonably speaking, he was fairly impressive too, ranking in the top three among the young generation of the Jade Pot Sect.
Yet, for some reason, Mo Qing felt nothing for this stunning and exceptional genius. In fact, she was somewhat displeased with his... hypocrisy, especially after her recent inexplicable interactions with Yun Xiao, which only made her find Xue Gong more annoying.
Poor Xue Gong, the top medical pulse genius of the Jade Pot Sect’s inner sect, remained oblivious to how his status in this junior sister’s heart had plummeted due to that rag-clad youth on the stage.
Having made that slightly sour comment and seeing no reaction from Mo Qing, Xue Gong felt somewhat embarrassed. When he turned his head, he somehow found himself, inexplicably, rooting for Guan Tong—hoping Guan Tong would keep that kid called Yun Xiao stuck on the second platform for good.
Perhaps it was what they called gut feeling and envy. Even if Xue Gong was unaware of Mo Qing and Yun Xiao’s exchanges, he instinctively disliked the rag-clad kid, which wasn’t quite in line with his identity as a Medical Pulse Master.
While Mo Qing and Xue Gong harbored their own thoughts, two fellow disciples in the southeast corner of the arena, Bi Luo and Yin Huan, watched the rag-clad youth on the stage with great interest. Perhaps their thoughts were even more complex.
As for what these spectating geniuses were thinking, the two on the stage had no time to care about that. It’s worth mentioning that, at this moment, everyone’s gaze was largely focused on this second platform, making the battles on the other three seem rather dull.
Spectators had grown tired of higher rankers defeating lower rankers. If, in this fight, Yun Xiao with his late-stage Meridian Gathering cultivation could defeat Guan Tong at the peak of Meridian Gathering, it would truly be spectacular gossip.
