Chapter 142: Violent Male Beauty
The flame singed his hair, but he was also an elite.
With a sneer, he jumped backwards, and the flaming whip fell lamely to the ground. He was just about to scold Lin Huang for the unexpected attack when he felt hot on his head.
His hands reached to touch his hair, and he realised his head was on fire. Worst of all, the fire was sticky, and it quickly transferred to his hands.
Before he could say a word, the fire spread to his entire body, and he was quickly reduced to ash.
Outside the battle platform, everyone was flabbergasted.
They were still waiting to watch a good show and didn’t expect the opponent to suddenly catch fire and die.
"What kind of fire is that?" someone wondered.
"It is different from the fire in the last fight." Another commented.
"As expected of phoenix fire. It’s not easy to handle."
"Did you see how it stuck on him? It looks like you can’t escape if even a lick falls on you."
Other challengers seemed to have realised the danger of fighting Lin Huang, and several retreated further from the battle platform.
"I don’t need to rest. You can quickly come up." Lin Huang shouted.
She specifically stared at the three members of the Death Flower Ascension Front who stood closest to the battle platform.
The three felt like they were stared at by a poisonous snake and a chill crept up their spine.
’There is no chance to take advantage here.’ The three thought and decided to give up on Lin Huang.
Although she was a special target, their life was more important.
When they thought of the death of the last challenger, they left without reluctance.
After all, Lin Huang was not the only special target.
Even if they couldn’t catch up with the famous special targets, they could still deal with some of the others, like the person outside the battle platform next door.
With such thoughts, they turned their attention to the second platform.
At this time, the platform was empty, and several people were brawling just beyond the platform boundary.
When he looked, Xuan Ke saw Jiang Yue amongst the fighting people.
’Does this make sense? Is it useful to fight outside?’ He wondered, and his eyes filled with questions.
In the end, the outcome of fights outside the battle platform didn’t count for defeat or victory.
’Should I help him?’ He thought as his eyes assessed the situation.
Jiang Yue had his whip out and was constantly whipping the people trying to get on the platform.
However, the others weren’t so easily bullied. They also didn’t allow Jiang Yue and a few others to get on the platform, which resulted in the current fight outside the arena.
’Should I take advantage and quickly jump on the platform?’
The monk dismissed the thought as soon as he had it.
This second platform was next to brother Yu’s platform. Xuan Ke was sure that brother Yue wouldn’t be happy to see him take it.
If he dared to jump on this platform, he dared to be sure that brother Yue would never end with him.
Xuan Ke was pretty sure that Jang Yue would challenge and fight him ruthlessly to grab the platform.
Rather than do such thankless work, it was best not to get involved with the second platform.
After making this decision, Xuan Ke felt relieved and no longer had a psychological burden. He completely abandoned Lin Huang and her platform to watch the good show of the second platform.
Unfortunately, he was the only one who chose not to get involved.
Before he could shout a warning, one of the Death Flower Ascension Front who escaped from the first platform took advantage of the chaos and jumped on the second platform.
As soon as they saw this, the people fighting outside stopped their movements and turned to the person. All had red eyes, and the black-masked cultivator shuddered in terror.
For a moment, he regretted learning a movement technique which allowed him to jump on the platform faster than his peers.
However, this regret was only momentary.
When he thought about it, he remembered that the platform battles were one-on-one. As long as everyone did not attack him all at once, he had a way to survive.
At this, the person relaxed and even had the mood to glare at the people who had stopped fighting.
"Hurry up and get on." He shouted rudely.
Everybody froze for a moment and then dashed to the platform simultaneously.
This time, Jiang Yue was determined.
He coated his feet with qi to increase his speed, and sure enough, he got on the platform faster.
"Jiang Yue, Sea Cloud sect, special target." The cultivator on the battle platform sneered behind his mask.
"I don’t need to know your name." Jiang Yue said.
After being entangled outside the platform for so long, he was in an incredibly bad mood.
Now that a Death Flower Ascension Front member had delivered himself to him, Jiang Yue took it as the heavens answering his prayers.
This person was the perfect tool to exorcise his suffocation.
After thinking that, Jiang Yue didn’t hesitate. He coated his whip with qi and swung toward the person.
Without waiting for the outcome of the swing, he rushed forward and kicked when he got close to the enemy.
The enemy had not expected this.
In fact, the whip was easy to deal with since the opponent moved as soon as he swung. This caused the whip to struggle to maintain its power and trajectory.
As a result, the whip attack was not powerful enough to warrant too much effort.
However, before he could do anything, a kick came from his left.
He couldn’t feel any martial art aura from the kick, but the leg was coated with qi and couldn’t be dismissed out of hand.
’What’s wrong with him?’ He wondered in annoyance.
In a fight between cultivators, attacks without martial arts were a waste of time. Without martial arts, it was difficult to injure another cultivator, and the opponent didn’t expect Jiang Yue’s random kick to be too powerful.
Because of this, he used his body to block the attack and didn’t even bother to add a layer of qi as protection.
However, he soon regretted that decision.
At the ninth level of the origin forging realm, Jiang Yue’s force value was almost one hundred thousand kilograms.
Ordinarily, a cultivator of the same realm would barely have fifty thousand kilograms in force value. However, Jiang Yue obtained the maximum force value of ten thousand kilogrammes at the peak of the meridian awakening realm.
After breaking through to the origin forging realm and cultivating to the peak of the ninth level, his force value had grown exponentially to more than fifty thousand kilogrammes.
For a long time, his force value didn’t improve, and Jiang Yue thought his body had reached its limit.
This thought did not change until he began to cultivate in the thousand herbs garden. Specifically, it changed when he first refined the fragrance of ginseng essence.
At that time, a lot of the essence couldn’t be refined, and it accumulated in his body. However, Jiang Yue did not laze around and occasionally tried to refine the essence.
After many months and a lot of effort on his part, his force value was quickly approaching one hundred thousand, which was the limit of the origin forging realm.
With his current force value, one kick was incredibly heavy, and would not lose in power to a low-level silver-rank kicking martial art.
Unfortunately, the opponent discovered this matter too late
By the time he thought to protect himself better, his body had already been kicked across the battle platform.
Before he could get up, the other had already arrived next to him.
In the next short while, violent kicks rained on the person’s body, and he had no chance to turn over.
Without resistance, the person lost his breath, and Jiang Yue kicked his body out of the battle platform after grabbing his things.
After that, he sat cross-legged in the middle of the arena and began to adjust his condition in preparation for the next challenge.
While he was calming himself down, others waiting outside the platform weren’t calm.
"This..., this..., is he the male version of the violent beauty?" Someone whispered.
However, everyone was a cultivator.
Although the voice was low, the words travelled a distance, and everyone agreed with him.
When Jiang Yue was outside the battle platform, he used a whip to fight, and his attacks were still within a manageable range.
The others didn’t expect the person to transform after getting on the battle platform.
The transformation was even of the violent kind, and many people couldn’t help but shudder.
While everyone didn’t know what to say, an amused laugh echoed around the surroundings.
Xuan Ke turned to look and saw Lin Huang staring at Jiang Yue with a fiery look in her eyes.
When he saw this, his body trembled in trepidation. He pretended not to see anything and quickly rushed toward the third platform.
