Chapter 974: Chapter 418: The Global Martial Arts Tournant Begins at Last!
“Swish…”
The sky filled with dust fell, like raindrops hitting the ground.
Lion King Kawei’s proud heart was nearly shattered. This was his first true and complete defeat, an utter loss without any reasonable excuse to find. Previously, Kawei had lost, but only against the older generation of strong opponents, and even then he retained so dignity.
But today, facing Bai Xiao, such a young Secret Martial artist, Lion King Kawei, although a senior, was utterly defeated, crushed from start to finish. If it hadn’t been for the intervention of the Sword Demon, his life and death might have been in the opponent’s hands.
The intense fear, laden with the scent of death, forced Lion King Kawei to lower his proud head and admit this grievous defeat.
After this battle, he no longer had the strength or face to participate in the Martial Arts Competition. Furthermore, Kawei might experience extrely strong aftereffects. The key Proud Heart cultivation of the Holy Lion Sect is actually a very sharp double-edged sword. A Proud Heart cultivator, starting from a young age, continuously winning, can advance rapidly, breaking through all kinds of bottlenecks in that montum of consecutive victories. The more victories, the faster the cultivation, and the stronger the Proud Heart.
Once, a Proud Heart cultivator leveraged this to break through the limits of the Peak Faction Master and successfully stepped into the Grandmaster Realm, a highway to the heavens.
However, everything has its pros and cons.
Proud Heart cultivation, if won, naturally goes smoothly. However, if once defeated, particularly with a significant setback, the consequences are extrely terrifying. All the aura accumulated from previous victories would be completely depleted, and one must start from scratch. If the Proud Heart shatters, one must overco the obsession in their heart and repair the Proud Heart anew. Otherwise, they would regress instead of moving forward.
Lion King Kawei found himself in such a state now.
He was defeated by Bai Xiao, a younger junior, and defeated across levels.
His Dao heart obviously shattered.
The entire person was absent-minded, eyes filled with a dense shadow.
His body trembled and was barely supported to stand by the Sword Demon.
“Ta ta ta…”
The two walked slowly toward the main hall of Po Suo’s Hidden Blade Pavilion.
After fifty or sixty ters, the Sword Demon turned his head, looked at Bai Xiao still standing motionless, and a rare glimr of a strange color flashed in his eyes.
“Such a formidable Secret Martial…”
“Only forbidden!”
“This Martial Arts Competition finally has sothing novel.”
…
Amidst the sound of lapping waves against rocks.
Bai Xiao stood bare-chested, his robust body under the sunlight exuding an ancient and primitive aura of iron and blood. His skin emitted a faint glazed golden hue, constantly shattering the dust and dirt falling from the sky into puffs of powder.
In the field of view ahead, a stream of black information passed by.
[Your Profession “Martial Arts Grandmaster,” Experience 1500!]
[Profession: Martial Arts Grandmaster LV.3 (5530/9200)]
Still quite a long way to go.
Bai Xiao’s eyes flickered as he was about to turn and head toward the pavilion.
Another ssage appeared on his retina.
[Profession: Martial Arts Competition Fighter (Inactive)]
[Condition: 1. Strength at or above Senior Faction Master √, 2. Have qualifications to register √, 3. Martial Arts Competition in four days ×]
“A brand new profession?”
“It should be similar to the forr Dark World Fighting Competition participant profession.”
Bai Xiao’s eyes narrowed. The activation preview of the profession popped up now, indicating that Chairman Shen had likely helped him register for the event just now.
“Dark World Fighting Competition participant profession has limitless bounty missions and four-stage champion missions, one allowing to earn abundant Potential Points, the other even providing four opportunities for Professional Enhancent…”
“I wonder if this Martial Arts Competition Fighter profession will have similar professional tasks?” He slightly flickered his gaze, expecting sothing…
Of course, even without this Martial Arts Competition Fighter profession, Bai Xiao had to participate in the Martial Arts Competition. Right now, he stands on the threshold of the Transformation Realm Master limit; his Qi has been tempered to perfection, but the Martial Arts Will has not yet been successfully condensed. To speed up the process, or even achieve it in one go, he must use large quantities of Enlightennt Tea leaves to continuously stimulate the Master’s Enlightennt of the Glazed Enlightennt Lotus Platform. The high-quality Enlightennt Tea leaves Bai Xiao previously obtained are not nearly enough.
Three taels are still a bit too few.
Currently, there’s no enemy from the Evil Ghost Court on the wanted list delivering Enlightennt Tea leaves to Bai Xiao again. The closest opportunity is the Martial Arts Competition. As long as he reaches the Top 16, there are rewards of Enlightennt Tea leaves. Entering the Top 8 even gains more than a pound of Enlightennt Tea leaves, with quality assured, at least within ten years of age.
A pound is ten taels.
Ten taels within ten years of age of Enlightennt Tea leaves.
The effect probably won’t be worse than three taels of five-year Enlightennt Tea leaves.
The more, the rrier!
“If I can reach the Top 8 in this Martial Arts Competition and acquire the reward of Enlightennt Tea leaves, I might be able to attempt condensing the Martial Arts Will, stepping into the level of the Peak Faction Master, which increases the odds of winning the championship…”
Bai Xiao thought to himself.
Now, although his combat power is astonishing, his realm is still a bit low. Against ordinary Peak Faction Masters, it’s not apparent; he can compensate with two extrely powerful Forbidden Secret Martials along with formidable four-dinsional attributes. However, if it’s a powerful enemy like the Sword Demon, it’s not that simple. The Sword Demon, half a step into the Grandmaster, is rumored to have already mastered a Forbidden Secret Martial.
