Chapter 318: Qin Xiaozhu Understands!
"What a big mouth!"
Qin Zi snorted coldly and said, "In that case, let’s not waste time. Come up to the stage and fight!"
"I was just thinking the same."
The young man in white smiled arrogantly, then stepped into the air, walking toward the battleground.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
With each step he took, the light surrounding him intensified, along with his aura.
Gradually, the aura emanating from him began to exert a sense of oppression on his peers around him.
That feeling was as if facing an ancient Fierce Beast—the seemingly elegant young man in white was terrifying!
And as Qin Zi watched him approach step by step, his body instinctively became excited, his blood boiling violently.
He needed such an opponent!
"I understand!"
Suddenly, a flash of insight hit Qin Zi’s mind—he seemed to understand why his father had set up the pitch-black barrier.
It was actually meant to let him experience more battles and compete with more prodigies, thereby accumulating combat experience!
Like the young man in white before him.
If the scene where he had just crushed the young man in purple had been seen by others, would this young man in white be so reckless to make a move? Perhaps he would weigh his abilities first.
If the opponent were in too much of a rush to bring his equipment, he might hide in the crowd, not daring to challenge him.
This would be a tremendous loss for him!
After all, only by fighting against all kinds of strong opponents can one hone their combat power and broaden their horizons.
Otherwise, it’s easy to become a frog in the well.
"Buzz!!"
And when the young man in white stepped onto the battleground, the black barrier rose again, enveloping the stage.
The young man in white was not alarmed, as he had watched from the crowd and knew there was nothing wrong with this black barrier.
"Kill!!"
"Break!"
Inside the pitch-black barrier, a fierce battle unfolded once more, echoing with low, chaotic sounds of impact.
The battleground trembled slightly.
The soundproofing effect of the black barrier was excellent, and it also blocked divine senses from prying, so outsiders could not see the battle’s progress.
Though unfortunate, it was still acceptable because, compared to the process, they cared more about the result!
Soon enough.
The battle ended.
"Wow!"
The barrier disappeared, and two figures appeared in everyone’s line of sight, standing opposite each other, both looking somewhat disheveled.
Comparatively, the young man in white looked more battered, with several holes blown open in his clothes, while Qin Zi’s clothes were at least intact.
"Did he lose?"
"From his aura, he shouldn’t be any weaker than the person before, maybe even more extraordinary, yet he lost?"
"Haha, that’s right, after all, Qin Zi is almost unrivaled among his peers. It’s not that easy to be..."
Someone chuckled bitterly, realizing they were mistaken; Qin Zi was so strong, not just anyone could defeat him.
However, before they finished speaking, they suddenly heard a tearing sound.
"Tear——"
"Pfft——"
Qin Zi’s previously intact clothes suddenly tore apart, turning into countless shreds that flew to the ground.
His tall and muscular upper body was exposed to everyone, glistening with a metallic sheen under the sunlight.
"This!!!"
"What’s going on?"
Everyone was taken aback.
This scene was abrupt, bringing about a reversal of perception because it suggested... Qin Zi seemed to have lost.
"Hmm??"
The young man in white frowned, looking puzzled because he remembered not hitting him directly.
Why would his clothes tear?
Could it be due to the energy force?
"Take it!"
At this moment, Qin Zi entered his act, coldly tossing a Token to him.
His expression showed a mix of unwillingness and frustration, yet he accepted the result.
The young man in white awkwardly caught the Token, frowning even more, thinking to himself:
"He clearly won, but is deliberately acting like this. Does he intend to flatter and ruin me?"
"Hmph, but this is good as well, I never fear flattery, but losing would tarnish my image."
With that thought.
He put on an air of arrogance, as if fully assuming the role of the winner, and said indifferently, "Thank you."
After saying that, he took the Token and soared away.
The crowd watched this scene, lamenting endlessly, and now, when they looked at Qin Zi, they felt less respect.
At this moment, Qin Zi, in their eyes, seemed like a tattered quilt—tattered and not warm anymore.
Lost twice in a row!
With this, he seemed less invincible, as someone stronger might always exist, and Qin Zi wasn’t truly unrivaled!
"I’ll face you!"
At this moment, a young man who had held back for a long time stepped out, brimming with enthusiasm.
He was a descendant of a Martial Emperor and considered a very remarkable talent, with the bearing of a Great Emperor.
"You think you’re worthy?"
Qin Zi snorted coldly, although he deliberately created a façade of defeat, not just anyone was qualified to challenge him.
He needed truly monstrous talents to challenge him to increase his combat experience, while weaklings... could cool off somewhere else.
"Whether I’m worthy or not, you’ll only know by trying!"
The young man retorted with a cold snort.
He wasn’t entirely arrogant or irrational, but with all eyes on him, he couldn’t lose his momentum.
Moreover, his admired junior sister was present, so he couldn’t afford to weaken his spirit now.
He could afford to lose but not to be timid!
"Then let’s give it a try."
Qin Zi said calmly.
Then, the young man rose into the air like a nimble Serpent and leaped onto the stage.
"Pfft—"
But before the black barrier could rise, he was kicked down from the stage by Qin Zi.
Whoosh!
Watching the young man’s body streaking across the sky like a meteor, the crowd was dazed for a moment, then suddenly realized and began to smile wryly.
"Ah, what were we thinking before, after all, Qin Zi is Qin Zi, not someone ordinary who can be shaken!"
"Indeed, while there’s always someone stronger, there really aren’t many young people in the Nine Heavens Realm stronger than Qin Zi..."
"Yes, not just anyone can defeat Qin Zi; we merely chanced upon it, which is the survivor’s bias."
At this moment, a disdainful voice sounded again.
"Haha, ants will always be ants, raising one to the heavens to hide their weakness is truly pathetic, truly laughable..."
This was a burly young man.
With a bear-like physique and tiger-like steps, his body shimmered with a glass-like glow, exuding a profound aura.
Behind him manifested a massive Vajra Arhat phantom, trembling with every step he took.
"It’s happening again!"
Qin Zi’s eyes lit up as if seeing prey, but he quickly concealed his excitement, pretending to be facing a great enemy.
Because his father had said.
The true hunter always appears as prey, he has to disguise himself as prey, luring the opponent...
At this moment.
In the heavens above, Qin Chuan sat amidst the white clouds, a tea table before him, teapot placed on it, sipping tea alone.
He held a teacup, glanced below, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.
This child can be taught!
Qin Xiaozhu had fully grasped his intentions—or at least, Qin Xiaozhu thought he had understood them.
Indeed, everything father does is for you!
And in a moment, the system notification chimed again.
"Ding! Your son humiliated the Heaven’s Chosen of the Emperor’s third Heavenly Layer, Ordinary Vajra, automatically recharging fifty thousand Father Points!"
"Your current Father Points balance is... six hundred fifty thousand!"
And at this moment, in Qin Chuan’s perception, many Heaven’s Chosen were rushing in from all directions.
