Chapter 441: Increasingly Difficult Battles (2/2)

Unfortunately, Xiao Chen had carefully analyzed his own matches, so did not make the same mistakes again.

Instead, he could even make use of these arrogant thoughts and act accordingly, achieving unexpected results.

“This fellow has very high fighting talent. Although he did not win every match with ease today, he has still won them all.”

“Let’s continue to watch first. If Jiang Zimo and the others do not perform well, I will bet five thousand Medial Grade Spirit Stones on him.”

“Unfortunately, Wrestling City has too little information on him. They did not advertise him at all, but focused on Ding Fengchou and the others instead.”

Xiao Chen successfully won match after match, making the crowd hold some expectations for him and arduously discuss his strength.

When all the eighteen matches ended, Xiao Chen had already paid a significant price—he even seemed to be in somewhat of a miserable state. However, he still managed to climb up step by step, obtaining a complete victory.

Xiao Chen’s clothes were tattered and wounds of various sizes covered his body. Anyone could tell that Xiao Chen did not obtain these victories easily.

“I think it’s best not to bet on him. Normally, when the prize of Medial Grade Spirit Stones breaks ten thousand, some experts would become interested. Thus, if he manages to it up to that amount, the peak experts would start coming out.

“He would not be able to win as easily as today. He will definitely not find it easier tomorrow and the day after tomorrow will be even worse.”

After the eighteenth match ended, Xiao Chen became the first to obtain 28 consecutive victories. Although he had proven his strength, the crowd did not think much of it.

Hence, Xiao Chen was not very popular. Most people thought that when he accumulated a sufficiently high Spirit Stone prize, his streak of consecutive victories would be broken.

Xiao Chen suppressed his internal injuries and walked up to the grey-robed old man. There, he received his reward of 7,400 Medial Grade Spirit Stones.

Adding in the three thousand Medial Grade Spirit Stones from yesterday, Xiao Chen had already obtained more than ten thousand Medial Grade Spirit Stone. That was about a tenth of his fortune already.

The grey-robed old man who handed the Spirit Stones to Xiao Chen felt a pinch in his heart. He said, “Congratulations, you are the first contestant to obtain 28 consecutive victories.”

Xiao Chen smiled faintly and thanked him. Then, he received the Spirit Stones and walked back to his corner.

He sat cross-legged and started to treat his injuries. Today’s fights’ intensity had at least doubled compared to the previous day. Furthermore, he had not used any Essence at all. Thus, there were a lot of hidden injuries left in his body, and he had to quickly get rid of them.

Putting the injuries aside,, Xiao Chen had continuously used only his Vital Qi for seventeen high intensity battles, so he managed to gain some new understanding in the path of body tempering.

If nothing went wrong, Xiao Chen could end up shortening the time taken to cultivate the Firmament Body Tempering Art’s fourth layer.

Many of the people present looked at Xiao Chen and shook their heads slightly; they still felt that it was useless to cultivate at this point.

“Ha ha! No wonder he has to work so hard. Every victory was difficult for him. It would be strange if he wasn't this hard-working.”

“The people of the Great Qin Nation do not seem to have much talent. They are not very smart either. If last minute cultivation would be effective, then why would we work so hard normally?”

“Indeed, it is clear with one look, he normally does not put in that much effort. Otherwise, he would not think of cultivating in such a situation.”

“Carefully observing the opponent’s techniques and skills is more important at this point. What he is doing is just stupid.”

All kinds of sharp and unkind words rang out when the crowd saw Xiao Chen sit down cross-legged once again. They all mocked him, but a tone of jealousy could be heard in their voices—they were jealous of Xiao Chen’s streak of victories.

That was especially so for the contestants who fought before Xiao Chen. None of them had obtained this many consecutive victories. Furthermore, none of them thought themselves weaker than him.

Xiao Chen was able to do it, but they were not—the disappointment in their hearts could be easily imagined.

When these people saw Xiao Chen’s strange actions, naturally, they could not resist taunting him out of spite.

That was especially so for Yun Ping. Today, he had continuously won up until he got defeated in the last match again. He was in an especially bad mood, the person who spoke the most unpleasant words was him.

“He is even able to obtain 28 consecutive victories with such strength, he’s really got a shit-ton of luck!”

Xia Xiyan, Jiang Zimo, Mu Xinya, and the others whom Xiao Chen got along with did not find this weird. Furthermore, they knew that he did not care, so they just ignored this group of people.

However, Xiao Rou could not resist. Back then, Xiao Chen helped her obtain an iron medallion. This had improved her impression of him significantly.

Furthermore, Xiao Rou was still quite young, her way of thinking was still quite naive and pure. When she saw the crowd taunting Xiao Chen continuously, she could not help but defend Xiao Chen. She said, “You all are not even able to match up to his results. Yet, you are not embarrassed to mock others. You are all truly shameless.”

Yun Ping laughed loudly and said, “All we are doing is stating facts, how is that mocking him? Furthermore, what is the point of consecutive victories? All we need is sixty victories in total.”

“That’s right, all we need is sixty victories. With his strength, he had already found it hard to gain victories today, so will he still be able to continue this tomorrow?”

“Furthermore, what qualifications do you, a little girl, have to lecture us? You did not even manage to obtain five victories yesterday. Ha ha ha!”

When the group of people heard Xiao Rou say what was buried deep in their hearts aloud, they were instantly displeased. Thus, they started criticizing her.
