Chapter 172: Chapter 0176 There are Still Many Shortcomings_2 Chapter 172: Chapter 0176 There are Still Many Shortcomings_2 Liu Haoshuai was on the verge of tears. There was no way he could co up with so much money. He pleaded, “I don’t have that much money on . I only have a million.”
“A million won’t do. If you really can’t co up with it, I’ll just take this sword and your uncle’s storage bag as ransom. How about that?” Qi Tian proposed.
“Alright, you… Oh, no.” Liu Haoshuai seed to have thought of sothing. He was about to agree, but he imdiately changed his mind and said, “Let figure sothing out.”
The expression on Liu Haoshuai’s face was unstable, clearly in a struggle between retaining his dignity or surrender. For a mont, he gritted his teeth and took out two brocade boxes from his storage bag, and handed them to Qi Tian, saying, “These are two dicinal herbs, a Purple Fire Fruit, and a Sha Mu Thorn. together, they are worth well over ten million on the market. These are the ransom.”
Qi Tian’s eyes brightened. The Purple Fire Fruit and the Sha Mu Thorn, he had heard of these two spirit dicines before, they were indispensable in refining the Foundation Establishnt pill especially the Purple Fire Fruit, which was one of the two main dicines with enormous value. He accepted and opened the boxes, indeed, they were the well-known Purple Fire Fruit and Sha Mu Thorn. The value of these two dicinal herbs was inestimable, worth a fortune to so but worthless to others.
For Qi Tian, these two herbs were quite useful, after all, he also had to face the issue of advancing to the Foundation Establishnt Stage in the future. Whether he needs a Foundation Establishnt pill is still unclear, but it’s definitely right to prepare early.
“Alright, these two herbs and your uncle’s sword can count as the ransom and compensation for my distress.” Qi Tian waved his hand, letting Liu Haoshuai drag Hu Qifan away.
“Thank you, Brother Qi Tian.” As Liu Haoshuai muttered his thanks, when he lowered his head, his eyes were full of resentnt. The humiliation inflicted upon him by Qi Tian today was sothing he would never forget in his lifeti. Even more unbearable was having to give the Purple Fire Fruit and Sha Mu Thorn to Qi Tian just to rescue his uncle. It was akin to a knife twisting in his heart, which was sothing he couldn’t bear.
As for the possible retaliatory asures that Liu Haoshuai may take, Qi Tian could guess, but he didn’t care. As a cultivator, they must have a fearless spirit, a lot of ti knowing dangers ahead must be faced head-on. In comparison, it was far from life-threatening for him.
Qi Tian jumped down from the Life-Death Stage, bowed to the Brother-in-charge who had been guarding it, and excused himself. That Brother had witnessed the whole process, despite so craftiness from Qi Tian, he couldn’t deny that Qi Tian did defeat a Half-step Foundation practitioner. If such a young man were to grow, his future would be boundless. Thus, he also courteously returned the gesture to Qi Tian.
The duel of Qi Tian and Hu Qifan on the Life-Death Stage has taken less than expected ti, and it was just about eight in the morning. Qi Tian directly headed to Wild Goose Falling Mountain, where he would go against Chu Yang.
They have agreed to start the duel at ten in the morning, and there were still less than two hours left. Qi Tian chose a conspicuous place, closed his eyes, and began to predict the next move of the Eight Desolate Demon Tiger Fist in his mind. Although he had the Red Hoop Stick, he preferred to fight with his fist, so naturally, he did not want to delay practicing and understanding Eight Desolate Demon Tiger Fist.
However, the further he went with the Eight Desolate Demon Tiger Fist, the more profound it beca. Even with Qi Tian’s comprehension, he couldn’t master the following moves in a short ti. In comparison, the staff skill Thirteen Demonic Strokes he learned were much simpler. This also indirectly confird although the Thirteen Demonic Strokes was powerful its level was far from being on par with the Eight Desolate Demon Tiger Fist.
In fact, Qi Tian still had many weaknesses. His Staff Skill and Movent Skill were of low grade. Up till now, he still possessed the Yellow-rank Lower Class Chasing Wind Step. Furthermore, he lacked various accessories to increase his combat and defense power. Even his Eight Desolate Demon Tiger Fist, which was considerably mighty, relied entirely on brute strength, going by the principle of break a thousand pounds with strength, which was not a path a qualified cultivator should follow.
Qi Tian was fairly clear about the issues with his own body, yet he lacked a Master to guide him. All his knowledge had been self-attained. Even though he had obtained quite a few secret texts from the Lianying Realm, searching these texts for a solution to rectify his weaknesses was not an easy task. He required a considerable amount of ti and a peaceful environnt free from disruptions. Unfortunately, he had neither.
Wild Goose Falling Mountain was quite open, a venue for significant events, as well as the forefront to the Lianying Realm. Nevertheless, it was typically quiet, mainly because it lacked Spirit Qi. Cultivating here was laborious yet yielded ager results. Given that ti was precious to cultivators, no one was willing to squander it here.
A little over an hour passed in a blink and Qi Tian could hear the previously tranquil surroundings beco lively. Upon opening his eyes, he was surprised to see the forrly deserted Wild Goose Falling Mountain bustling with people.
Qi Tian saw around a hundred disciples from the Imperial Master Mansion surrounding him. Many faces were familiar–these disciples were the ones he had rescued in the Lianying realm. Of course, there were so he did not recognize. They were just present to enjoy the spectacle.
The reason why Qi Tian could cultivate undisturbed was thanks to the disciples he had saved from the Imperial Master Mansion. They had set up a temporary security line to prevent others from getting too close and disturbing him.
Qi Tian nodded in gratitude to the disciples of the Imperial Master’s Mansion, then looked around to see who else had arrived.
As the ti for the formal competition approached, more and more disciples from the Imperial Master Mansion arrived. Most were there to see Qi Tian lose. Almost no one thought Qi Tian could defeat Chu Yang. Even among the disciples Qi Tian had rescued in the Lianying realm or those who had witnessed Qi Tian arm wrestling with Chu Yang, almost no one was optimistic about Qi Tian’s chances.
Twenty minutes before ten o’clock, the other protagonist of this competition, Chu Yang, who was a second rank official from Sky Eagle Hall and at Half-step Foundation Establishnt stage, arrived, surrounded by more than a dozen people.
On his way, many people greeted him and Chu Yang waved his hand in acknowledgent frequently. He carried himself much like a superstar on Earth in a previous life.
“Brother Chu Yang, we’ve all co to cheer you on!”
“Brother Chu Yang will surely win.”
…
Standing at a high point, Qi Tian watched everything quietly. He did not have any resentnt towards Chu Yang. They could sowhat be regarded as friends. This competition was rely a fight for the battle slot against the Guardian National Master Manor and didn’t bear any other grudges. Therefore, Qi Tian had always taken this matter lightly. As for whether he could defeat Chu Yang, it wasn’t even within Qi Tian’s considerations. Ever since he had beaten Chu Yang in arm wrestling in the Lianying realm, Qi Tian had stopped considering Chu Yang a rival of the sa level.
