Chapter 954 – Another Punch (2/2)
……
.……
……
Xuanyuan Po walked off the fighting platform.
The crowd parted like a tide.
The Demi-human Court official slightly arched his brow as he looked at Xuanyuan Po. He summoned a subordinate and ordered him to investigate Xuanyuan Po's background.
In the first match, Xuanyuan Po had relied on his strength to beat the Xiang clan descendant silly, which was already enough to stun him and the official from the Council of Elders.
But this in no way compared to the shock delivered by this battle.
Because Nie Chi was a true demi-human expert.
When the Demi-human Court official saw Nie Chi's lightning-fast blade, he became extremely sure that not even he was a match for Nie Chi.
Yet Nie Chi had lost to this bear youth's fist!
If Nie Chi was a true expert, then what was this bear youth?
……
……
Xuanyuan Po walked up to the small table.
This was his third time today coming to this table.
He noticed that the minor official's complexion had already changed many times.
At the start, the minor official's face was all disdain and derision, then it was shock and evasion, and after that was shame and anger.
Now, this minor official was ghastly pale, like he was suffering from a cold. But he was also sweating profusely.
When Xuanyuan Po walked to the table and cast his shadow on him, he began to sweat in streams, instantly soaking his clothes.
An official on the side asked in concern, ”Cao Si, are you okay?”
Xuanyuan Po finally learned the official's name.
The minor official mumbled out a few words. He attempted to wipe the sweat off with his sleeve, but this was far from enough.
Xuanyuan Po knew the cause, but he didn't much care. After confirming a few details on the register, he left.
The minor official raised his head and stared at Xuanyuan Po's back, unable to suppress the memories of the words he had said in the small tavern several days ago.
He had been deeply inebriated at the time and had forgotten most of it, but today's events had given him such a fright that he could now clearly remember those words.
”Isn't this a cripple!”
”Do you really believe the boasts of a cripple like this? And an expert of the Tianhai clan… He might as well just say it was Tianhai Shengxue!”
”Bear cub, stop right there!”
”Just look at his arm. This is a cripple without a single bit of strength, only good for washing dishes. And he has the nerve to say that he was a supervisor of the Orthodox Academy?”
”That's the Orthodox Academy we're talking about here! If you have that capability, what are you doing washing dishes here?”
When he thought about all the nonsense he had said to this person, his sweat began to stream down even faster.
And then he remembered that he had even spit in front of this person, at which point he began to feel dizzy, almost passing out.
Xuanyuan Po walked out of the crowd and to the corner of the street, then he took out a beef bun from his bag and began to eat.
After the first battle, he realized that matches were truly exhausting, so he went to the steamed bun shop and bought the last tray of beef buns.
As expected, even though he had only made two punches, he felt absolutely starving.
The buns were already cold, the meat juice somewhat congealed, so they weren't that tasty anymore, but he ate them with great diligence.
The crowd watched him with equal diligence.
Intense matches were still taking place on the platform, but nobody cared.
Everyone was looking at the street outside, at Xuanyuan Po, at his hands.
It was like the meat bun in his hands was the world's tastiest delicacy.
