Chapter 364: Three hundred and sixty-four: reap what one sows.
Perhaps only the Jade Pot Sect Master Yu Shu, aside from the Great Elder Lu Zhan, might be discerning something amiss, his heart suddenly stirred - could this matter be related to that cheap disciple of his?
Indeed, Yu Shu guessed correctly; be it Mo Qing’s rapid advancement in Meridian Qi Cultivation or the abnormality in the Meridian Refining Technique, all were inextricably linked to Yun Xiao’s assistance in controlling the "Pure Yang Immortal Body."
This unique physique, unseen even by the Divine Soul of Yun Xiao’s past life as the Long Xiao Battle God, once controlled, might mean Mo Qing’s cultivation potential could even surpass that of Ling Wan, who possessed the Mixed Element One Qi Body, and could potentially be even more formidable.
Below the Arena Hall, with Mo Qing’s help, Chang Qing managed to thoroughly purge the poison blood within his body, yet the tournament fight ultimately ended in defeat. Staring at the triumphant Bi Luo above the stage, Chang Qing was frustrated.
Nevertheless, skill inferior to others, Chang Qing knew that facing his second senior brother from the Poison Vein lineage, even given another chance and with extra caution, his chances of winning would not exceed ten percent.
"Chang Qing senior brother, thank you for the match!"
Since he failed to take Chang Qing’s life, Bi Luo put on a generous demeanor, saluted with a fist above the Arena Hall, and then leisurely stepped down amidst the cheers of many Poison Vein disciples.
When the crowd saw the two contestants for the sixth match, interest sparked anew because one of them seemed somewhat unfamiliar to them - a corpulent young man.

Recently, Tao Chun’s mood had been less than splendid, as his master, Elder Yan Chun - a former Commander of the Xuanyue Empire’s Xuantie Army - had betrayed the Jade Pot Sect by stealing the Sect Treasure, turning into a traitor of the entire sect.
