Chapter 278 - Top Grade Opponent (1/2)
“If you do not wish to have your face split in a bit, you better not start taking any actions. I did not have enough fun fighting just now,” said Ling Chuxi in an extremely dangerous tone though her expression remained calm.
Lan Xinyu immediately halted her steps. The fifth princess glanced at Lan Xinyu with eyes full of pity then patted her shoulders, a gesture of pity and understanding that they were both in the same boat. Both of them were unfortunate people… They were two weak young maidens who had the misfortune to meet a “bully” such as Ling Chuxi and could only yield to her in “humiliation”.
After that, Ling Chuxi and the rest checked out the information of the opponents they would each face next.
Zhang Dongzhi. This was Ling Chuxi’s opponent in the next round.
If she did not remember wrongly, this person was ranked second in the book of compet.i.tors that Feng Yan Union had compiled, a mere second to Baili Han. Hearsay, he had already reached Battle Qi Level 9 and was just a step away from breaking through to the realm of Great Fulfilment.
With such a level of cultivation, perhaps he would have been considered a strong opponent in the past, but now Ling Chuxi totally did not care as the difference between the levels of Battle Qi Level 9 and Great Fulfilment was too great. It was not as simple as the difference between being at Level 8 and Level 9, but rather, it was the life and death experience of Heavenly Lightning Striking The Body separating these levels that made all the difference.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk. I’m up against the contestant ranked at number two,” announced Ling Chuxi as she looked at the information of her next opponent. Then her eyes lit up and she quickly ran off, heading out of the residence.
“Master, where are you going?” asked the fifth princess.
“To place a bet. No one thinks that my cultivation is stronger than him right now. So, many will be betting on him for sure. Taking advantage of that fact that my cultivation level has yet to be exposed, I need to earn more money quickly,” answered Ling Chuxi softly.
“That’s right. Why didn’t I think of that?” said the fifth princess as she smacked her own head and then quickly went to catch up with Ling Chuxi.
The rest of the group who were looking on from behind watched the two girls’ retreating backs helplessly and then quickly followed suit as well.
After they all placed their bets, the sky had already turned dark. The group of them returned to their respective dwellings after eating dinner, all of them intent on taking a good rest to welcome their matches well the next day.
