Chapter 316: Clean Victory (1/2)

BOOM!

After ramming heavily into the spiritual power ward, Shi Nan fell onto the ground, and was unable to stand back up.

Blood ceaselessly poured out of the corner of his mouth as he attempted to get back on his feet. However, he failed after a few attempts, and thus eventually gave up. Sitting on the floor, he glared at Nie Tian.

After throwing the Rage Punch, Nie Tian didn’t even spare Shi Nan another glance, and walked straight out of the central stage.

The spiritual power ward at the perimeter of the stage split open and created a opening for Nie Tian.

Only at that moment did the spectators on the stands come to realize that the battle was over.

A huge uproar rose inside the Blood Fighting Pit.

“Am I seeing right? Shi Nan actually couldn’t withstand a single strike, and now he can’t even get up?!”

“What just happened? It happened so fast that I didn’t see it clearly. I just saw Hua Tian suddenly appear in front of Shi Nan and strike him with his fist. And then, Shi Nan flew backwards!”

“Was it really a battle between an early Heaven stage fighter and a late Heaven stage fighter? If we are determining their strength by their cultivation bases, shouldn’t Shi Nan be the one to have defeated Hua Tian in a flash? How come it was the other way around?”

“Dear lord! I’m afraid the rumors are real! Hua Tian actually did kill dozens of Dark Moon experts and Hunters in the Void Illusion Mountain Range, the hilly area, and the wasteland!”

“It seems that a cultivator’s cultivation base is indeed not the only standard to determine a man’s true strength!”

All the spectators who had paid spirit stones to enter the Blood Fighting Pit were caught up in intense discussions with each other.

“Shi Nan is such a dumbass!” Dong Li said, gritting her teeth, not excited in the least even after winning numerous spirit stones since she had placed her bet on Nie Tian.

For some reason, upon seeing Shi Nan lose so completely and Nie Tian win so effortlessly, she was actually very angry.

“Shi Nan knew absolutely nothing about Nie Tian. He had no idea that Nie Tian has mastered strange movement magics, and that he is always wreathed in a mysterious magnetic field!” Since she had dealt with Nie Tian before, and through her endless pursuit of him, she had gained a clear understanding of the different types of mysterious magics he used.

She believed that if she were to fight Nie Tian, she definitely wouldn’t fail so utterly and quickly as Shi Nan did.

The reason why Shi Nan had suffered such a complete loss was because he didn’t know anything about Nie Tian, yet was blindly confident in himself and didn’t keep his guard up.

Dong Baijie took a deep breath and said with a grim look in his eyes, “He’s even more powerful now. Aside from the magnetic field and the movement magic he just used, he knows another secret magic that allows him to condense the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth into energy balls. If it weren’t for the fact that there isn’t any spiritual Qi here, and if the battle took place in the Void Illusion Mountain Range, Shi Nan would have suffered an even more thorough loss.”

Upon hearing his words, Dong Li instantly thought of the Hunters who had been bombarded by Nie Tian’s spiritual energy balls, which contained toxic spiritual Qi, and died horrible deaths.

A chill ran through her body as she cursed, “That man is such a freak!”

“Big Brother Shi…”

The handful of guest elders of the Blood Skull who were standing beside Shi Hui wished to speak, but stopped on second thought, their faces filled with mixed emotions.

Shi Hui’s face was very grim as he looked back and forth between Shi Nan, who struggled a few times, but still couldn’t get back on his feet, and Nie Tian, who didn’t even spare Shi Nan a glance after throwing the punch and walked right out of the fighting stage.

“I’ll go back to my cultivation room, Uncle Shi.” With these words, Nie Tian walked through the gate of the Blood Fighting Pit.

Beside Shi Qing, a few Blood Skull experts who managed the Blood Fighting Pit stood aghast as they looked Nie Tian up and down, as if they were looking at a monster.

Shi Qing snapped out of his daze and hastily replied, “Good, good.”

With these words, he looked up at Shi Hui, who was standing on the bleachers, and asked under everyone’s gazes, “Brother Shi, about your agreement?”

Cold words came out through Shi Hui’s gnashed teeth. “Every word I said counts.”

Shi Qing smiled as he nodded. Then, he turned to Nie Tian and said warmly, “It’s done. From now on, Shi Nan’s cultivation room will remain vacant. You’ll be able to use both Heaven stage cultivation rooms however you like, and cultivate wholeheartedly. You won’t need to worry about any further disruptions.”

“If that’s the case, many thanks.” Nie Tian clasped his hands to pay his respects and then walked away from the Blood Fighting Pit.

The Qi warriors who had limited spirit stones and thus had been waiting for the result outside the Blood Fighting Pit, saw Nie Tian walk out and immediately learned the result.

Under the crowd’s shocked and revering gazes, Nie Tian rapidly left and went straight back to his cultivation room, where he resumed his devoted cultivation.

On the balcony of the highest stone pavilion in the Blood Skull’s headquarters…

Cai Lan, the head of the Blood Skull, waved his hand, and the the gigantic, crystal-like prism grew dim and flew back into a corner of the balcony.

Cai Lan rubbed his chin as light flashed across in his eyes, as if he was deep in thought.

The other two Worldly realm Blood Skull officials also narrowed their eyes as they recalled the scene where Nie Tian had defeated Shi Nan in the blink of an eye over and over again.

All three of them remained silent.

Only after a long time did Cai Lan stop pondering and ask with a plain tone, “What do you think?”
