Chapter 475: Dao Power (2/2)
Miaomiao widened his eyes in disbelief. He finally realized that he had underestimated Zhang Fei's counterpart!
BOOM
The chest of Miaomiao caved in, and he was sent flying a hundred meters. He tumbled and rolled on the floor.
Fortunately, he managed to organize his body before he fell off the platform. Now, he stood on the edge of the stage.
Zhang Yide scoffed and pulled the knife from his neck.
”You've played enough. Now, my turn!”
”Tsk!”
The table was turned! Miaomiao sensed the looming danger!
He had no other way to kill Zhang Yide!
BEEP!!
The sharp whistle noise resounded in the space and distracted everybody. Only then, all contestants realized that 10 seconds had passed.
The mysterious voice returned.
'A new pair of hunter and prey has been selected. The new hunter is Liu Xuande, and the prey is Brocell!'
A red gem appeared on Brocell's forehead. Then, a new knife fell on Liu Xuande's hands.
The luck of this villain was still too strong.
”Hahaha! I have the knife!”
Liu Xuande took the knife and turned around. He scanned everyone on the platform to find his prey.
Then, he realized that Zhang Yide had stolen Miaomiao's knife.
”Yide! Ignore that brat and kill that black-clothed guy! We can share the red gem if we work together!”
Zhang Yide paused. He turned around to look at his elder brother for a moment. Then, he glanced at Miaomiao.
”Consider yourself lucky. I'll kill you next time.”
Miaomiao frowned as that line was strangely cliché. Logically, he should have declined Liu Xuande's order and pushed on the attack to kill Miaomiao.
Zhang Yide and Liu Xuande's decisions were oddly stupid. It felt weird.
A second later, Miaomiao widened his eyes and looked at his chest. The injury just now had been healed, but he looked at something else inside him.
'Was that the power of my new plot armor? Did it make those idiots stupider?'
…
Meanwhile, Xiahou Dun and others gathered at the north area of the platform, observing the chaos from afar.
They were the only ones who stayed away from conflicts and fights. Since they already lost a member when they had first arrived, everybody avoided the red tiles like plague.
Xiahou Dun counted the number of participants. Including Brocell's golems, 111 contestants remained.
When the qualifier round had started, there were over 200 contestants, and the majority of them were Brocell's golems.
Brocell also bragged that he had brought more than 500 of them, but they were destroyed when he immaturely challenged the platform before the game had even started. As a result, he ruined his manpower.
Taoties, aka Ling Tianlong's pets, were also wiped out during the early of the game, and the credits went to Xiahou Dun and his gang – They were the ones who slaughtered them as soon as the first game started.
And now, they only needed to kill 12 more to end this qualifier round.
”Yuan, let's jump into the fray. We have the advantage of the size and weight. We can't miss this opportunity”
All cyclops were in their true forms as five-meter tall giants. They didn't have their weapon, but their physiques were superior to the senile human cultivators.
”Who should we target next? Those wolves were too easy.”
”Get the easy targets, the human cultivators without Qi. Of course, we will go for Liu Biao and Liu Xuande's men. Don't touch our allies.”
”Of course!”
Xiahou Yuan nodded. He turned to his men and gestured them to move.
Instead of going after Liu Xuande and Zhang Yide, they beelined toward the back of Guan Yunchang, Huang Hansheng, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou's team formation.
They flanked the battalion of Miaomiao's enemies.
…
At first, Huang Hansheng and others attempted to steal the head of Ling Tianlong. But once they began fighting with Miaomiao's men, they became engrossed in defeating their opponents.
Jia Shan, Ma Ping, Mao Xueyan, and Mao Dandan teamed up against Yang Liang. Zhao Bao soloed against Wen Chou. Dian Wei and Huang Hansheng duked it out to vent their anger.
As for Guan Yunchang, he faced several cultivators from Miaomiao's side at once.
Qu Yi, Zhang Liao, Fogan, Pang Lingming, and Ma Shoucheng surrounded this red-faced man. They panted as they couldn't keep up with Guan Yunchang's martial skills and his undying physique.
The gap between the 8th-stage and 7th-stage began to show as Guan Yunchang took no damage from these men's Dao Power and physical attacks. On the contrary, every punch and kick from Guan Yunchang broke their bones.
The gang was at a disadvantage against this War God's counterpart.
”Don't get cocky!”
Zhao Yun, Ma Xingjuan, and Kang Yan stepped up to assist Zhang Liao's team. They sent their punches to Guan Yu's face at once.
Guan Yunchang stood there and took the hit. Then, he harrumphed.
BOOM
The unyielding will of Guan Yunchang resonated with his War God Dao, the dao that he pursued when he formed his Dao Pillars when he was a 6th-stage cultivator.
The invisible shockwave knocked the girls flying backward.
Guan Yunchang kicked the ground and sent a straight punch to Fogan's face.
Fogan sensed the danger as the oncoming punch contained a powerful force behind it. He raised his arms to block it.
BOOM
The thick arms of Fogan were broken from the blow.
”Bastard!”
Fogan roared even though he was in pain. He tried to activate his Orc Lord Dao and Bloodlust Dao to empower his physique like everybody else.
Jia Shan, Ma Ping, Yan Liang, and many cultivators bellowed and activated their Dao to enhance their physique.
Currently, the experts already discovered the loophole of this game. Although they couldn't use their Qi, their nascent soul, or elemental power, they could still activate the dormant power of their dao pillars to enhance their physical strength.
And for those who could borrow Dao Power from their Dao Gods, they began revealing their cards.
