Guang Fu watched in horror as the wing got closer and closer. He instinctively closed his eyes, not willing to watch his death happen before his own eyes.
After so internal conflict, Guang Fu's eyes opened again. He decided to die brave and courageous instead of acting like a coward.
Guang Fu watched the wing reach within a few inches of him. Suddenly, the shield emblem on his chest began to glow. Then, a golden barrier appeared around Guang Fu, stopping the wing in its tracks.
Guang Fu's mind raced as the crane stood shocked. In less than a second, Guang Fu's slash cut the crane's head off.
Its head flew far away and landed on the ground, its eyes still opened wide. Guang Fu fell on the ground and sat there. He too was shocked by the developnt.
He hurriedly took the shield emblem off of his chest and looked at it. It was similar to before, but the gold on it was more dim.
Guang Fu spent the rest of the day staring at it. After a day had passed, the gold was looking the sa as before. This proved a few conjunctions that Guang Fu had made in the last day.
First, the shield emblem was very likely a special defensive weapon. From its brief performance earlier, it seed to at least be of the void traversing realm.
Second, it seed to automatically activate when its user, or Guang Fu, was about to die.
Third, it seed to have the ability to recharge.
If Guang Fu guessed right, the emblem was sothing that could be used a few tis in a day before it stopped working. After a day, it would recharge.
Guang Fu couldn't help but be amazed at his luck. The providence he had been given by Zhou Fan was showing its effect.
An item owned by a poor beggar and sold for cheap actually turned out to be a defensive weapon that would be expensive anywhere in the world.
Guang Fu had gone out searching for silver and found diamond!
As the day ended, Guang Fu regained his composure and reported his situation to the talisman. After a few "Are you insane"s and so "Who do you think you are"s, Guang Fu was given the order to stay put as previously planned.
Naturally, the events were reported to higher ups. Most of the information was concealed by Guang Fu, only ntioning that he took down an injured cultivator a tier above him.
Luckily, he was barely punished. Instead of giving him contribution points for killing a third tier nascent soul realm cultivator, he was given the contribution points for killing a second tier nascent soul realm cultivator.
Despite the punishnt, he was given complints by the higher ups.
After taking his replacent's body to the teleportation array and having it collected, Guang Fu waited in his location for 6 months.
Only after 6 months did a new challenger walk into the square.
As the barrier ford, he spoke. "I have good news and bad news for you. The good news is, if you win this, you will be left alone for quite so ti. The bad news is, I am one of the strongest talents of the beast world."
The one speaking was a large hippo twenty feet tall. He was purple and fat. He was at the 6th level of the nascent soul realm, two levels above Guang Fu.
Despite his declarations, Guang Fu smiled. He had a trump card that guaranteed his victory.
Without allowing the hippo to speak further, Guang Fu got up and ran towards him recklessly. The hippo was surprised, but laughed and charged forward.
Guang Fu ford a sword of light Qi using all of his power without even caring about defense.
"Fool!" The hippo said as a water needle ca out of its mouth, shooting toward Guang Fu at an incredible speed.
Guang Fu laughed and got closer before swinging down. As he swung down, the water needle hit him, or rather the golden barrier that appeared, and bounced off.
The hippo's eyes widened as a wave of light Qi hit the hippo full force, knocking it back into a tree. Despite its great size and incredible defense, it was on the verge of death. Guang Fu did not waste ti as a large landslide earth Qi crushed the hippo to death.
The barrier fell down and Guang Fu was declared the victor. He took the hippo's corpse and roasted it over a fire. Luckily, the hippo was dead and its defense had fallen greatly.
Otherwise, Guang Fu with no fire affinity and no experience in using or practicing fire techniques wouldn't have been able to enjoy the al.
Guang Fu reported his victory to the talisman which had previously received word of the hippo's challenge.
"Congrats on the victory. The hippo was one of the great talents of the beast world. As previously shown on the wall, you will get rewards equal to that from killing a 3rd tier nascent soul realm cultivator." The talisman inford him.
Guang Fu nodded as he calculated his points. Ignoring the points from simply staying stationed, he now had 2,097 contribution points.
When his break ti was up and he went back, he would be able to lavishly enjoy his ti. As six months passed and Guang Fu was waiting for a notice from the talisman, he received new orders.
"Due to the beast world deciding to leave the square guarded by you alone, it has been requested that you keep your post. In order to compensate you, we will triple the contribution points gained from staying. Along with that, we have given a heavenborn the job of buying items for you and bringing them to you. He will be available once a year and will arrive soon. Apologies and good luck." The chanical voice said.
Guang Fu wasn't sure what to think. On one hand, he got more contribution points and a personal shopper. On the other hand, he was forced to stay in a constant state of battle readiness.
Eventually, Guang Fu sighed and waited for his personal shopper to arrive.
