Chapter 9: Battle Against Zhao Xiong
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The unrecognized registered disciple competition continued in full swing.
Huangfu Longdou also came to the venue to observe the competition when he completed today's self-discipline training.
The two disciples of the Third Level of the Qi-Condensation Realm were fighting in the arena.
These two were both unrecognized registered disciples, and Huangfu Longdou had seen them often in the sect.
Naturally, he was somewhat curious about their battle.
The two of them continued to battle with their sword techniques.
There were voices of praise outside the arena.
"Senior Li is amazing. His sword technique is like a river that flows continuously. The River Sword Technique wouldn't have such an effect without three years of training."
"Junior He isn't bad either. His sword technique is as smooth and natural as the breeze, and the Breeze Sword Technique lives up to its reputation."
The battle between these two people was relatively good during this period.
Even the sect master of the Heavenly Sword sect, Chen Xuanfeng, was nodding his head in approval on the high platform from time to time.
Although the strength of these two disciples wasn't high, the sword techniques in their hands were familiar.
They would be able to become the mainstay of the sect when their realms increase.
However, Huangfu Longdou kept shaking his head at this moment.
He had already learned the top three divine abilities.
It could be said that there was no divine ability in this world that was more powerful and exquisite than these three divine abilities.
Naturally, he had a sharp eye for these techniques.
These two disciples' moves were extremely crude, and there were flaws everywhere.
It could be said that he could still defeat these two people even if he didn't learn any powerful divine ability.
Not to mention Huangfu Longdou, who had grasped some divine abilities.
He could defeat these two people with just a breath.
Their sword moves were trash among trash compared to the divine abilities he had obtained from the system.
He lost interest after watching for a while.
A shout appeared on the stage at that moment.
"Match 131, Huangfu Longdou versus Zhao Xiong."
"Huangfu Longdou and Zhao Xiong, please enter the battle arena."
"Huangfu Longdou and Zhao Xiong, please enter the battle arena."
...
A tough man appeared beside everyone's ears after a few more cheers from the inner disciples.
He had a centipede-shaped scar on his forehead, and there wasn't much hair on his head.
His face was covered in stubble, and his muscles were bulging.
He was a body-refining cultivator.
Huangfu Longdou also stood on the ring at that moment.
"My God, it's Senior Zhao Xiong!" A disciple exclaimed.
"What? Is this senior strong?" An unfamiliar disciple asked.
"A body-refining cultivator, he's strong!"
"No way, this person looks a bit big. There's nothing special about him in other places."
"Tsk, I doubt you know this. Senior Zhao Xiong isn't an ordinary body cultivator. He lived in the Demonic Beast Mountain Forest for three months!"
"What? This senior can live in the Demonic Beast Mountain Forest for three months? Is it that exaggerated?"
"It's more than that. Senior Zhao Xiong's cultivation method isn't ordinary. He constantly engaged in life-and-death battles with demonic beasts, and it was even the Earth-Shattering Bear in the Demonic Beast Mountain Forest."
"What! Earth-Shattering Bear? A powerful demonic beast that can kill a Third Level Qi-Condensation Realm cultivator with a single palm strike. Are you sure you're not wrong?"
"Hmph! Does any of the wild beasts in the Demonic Beast Mountain Forest have the ability to split mountains and rocks?"
Hiss!
A large group of disciples sucked in a breath of cold air.
He had never thought that this man with an ugly face would be so terrifying.
"The little bald man next to him is in danger if that's the case."
"Of course. Look at how weak he looks. It's probably not even enough to take a punch from Senior Zhao Xiong."
"Wait, don't you think that this man looks familiar?"
"Oh right, the elder said that he's Huangfu Longdou, right?"
"Yes, why did he become bald?"
"It can't be. Is there anyone that thinks that he can be as strong as Senior Zhao Xiong just because he is bald?"
"I think this kid is here to make a joke."
"Just because he was able to defeat Wang Yi and Zhao Ye, it doesn't mean that he can defeat a cultivator who is also a body-refining cultivator."
"Yeah. After all, Wang Yi underestimated his opponent. Also, he didn't have any actual combat experience. That's why Huangfu Longdou found a loophole."
"However, I feel that Senior Zhao Xiong can no longer defeat him."
"Hehe, are you looking down on Senior Zhao Xiong?"
"How is that possible? Look at Senior Wang Tian on the other arenas. His gaze has always been fixed on this Huangfu Longdou."
Everyone followed his gaze and looked over. As expected, they noticed Wang Tian's cold gaze continuously looking over at Huangfu Longdou.
"I think Huangfu Longdou must have knelt and begged for Senior Zhao Xiong's protection this time. He would immediately run to the Thinking Cliff if he could not get the protection. After all, no one can go to the Thinking Cliff without the sect leader's approval."
"That's right. Huangfu Longdou's life could be spared like that."
The disciples around him all felt that his analysis must be correct after listening to it.
And these words also entered Zhao Xiong's ears.
He smiled slightly, feeling very satisfied in his heart upon hearing the flattery of his juniors.
Huangfu Longdou was a weakling in front of him no matter how he looked at Huangfu Longdou.
That made him even more confident in obtaining the victory of this competition.
"Ha, your name is Huangfu Longdou, right? Hurry up and surrender. I don't want to hurt you because you imitate my hairstyle," Zhao Xiong said confidently.
Huangfu Longdou was slightly stunned.
He hadn't even won yet, and he was already pretending.
He couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
Huangfu Longdou stretched out a finger and said to him, "I'll defeat you with one finger."
Zhao Xiong laughed out loud when he heard that.
"Haha, little brat, you're too funny. Fine, since you said that you'll use one finger to fight, I won't bully you. I'll defeat you with one finger."
"Yes, Senior Zhao Xiong. Defeat this little baldy. He doesn't have the strength, yet he still dares to show off in the sect. He deserves a beating."
"Right, let's teach him a lesson. Use your fingers to stab him."
"It was unforgivable that he still dares to imitate Senior Zhao Xiong's handsome hairstyle. Quickly defeat him."
...
A large number of words drowned out Huangfu Longdou's voice.
Everyone didn't think highly of him, especially those disciples who had already lost. They felt even more unhappy.
They wished that Huangfu Long would lose at once so that they could be more comforted.
However, just as everyone thought that there was no suspense in the battle...
The two of them collided directly.
Bang!
An intense collision sound rang out, and dust filled the air.
That was the sound of flesh colliding.
A figure flew backward like a kite with a broken string under everyone's expectant gazes as the dust gradually dispersed.
What surprised them was that this figure was their Senior Zhao Xiong!
