370: The Strong Square Off

The Strong Square Off

Baili Han was infuriated by Zhao Xuanming's words too. He wanted to teach the other party a lesson, and rushed towards Zhao Xuanming to slap his face.2

Zhao Xuanming's expression instantly changed. He had not expected them to have such a strong person on their side. Even a Battle Qi Level-8 could not land a blow.

Suddenly, a shadow flew out of the carriage, and something hit Baili Han's palm.

Boom! It was like two giant rocks had collided; the noise was enough to make the ground shake.

Baili Han took a few steps backwards, taking a while to regain his balance. 

A young man dressed in black was standing ten steps from him. He looked at Baili Han coolly.

Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen were stunned. They were the ones who understood Baili Han's cultivation the most. Although he did not use all his strength, they could tell that the other person did not use his full strength as well. Baili Han had actually been forced into taking a few steps backwards by the other person. It was now obvious that the other person's cultivation was definitely not below Baili Han's, possibly even stronger.

 "Who is this guy?" The two of them looked at the young man at the same time. They could only feel chills and a murderous intent emanating from his solid and lean figure.

"Good skills." The young man looked at Baili Han casually. His eyes had a vicious gleam to them.

"You're not bad either." Baili Han stared back at the man unflinchingly.

A strong aura erupted from both of them. A lantern hanging at the door of the gambling den swayed even though there was no wind, its light clearly dimmer. 

The atmosphere became heavy, and the surrounding crowd involuntarily moved backwards at the suppressing aura.

The two figures disappeared from their spots at the same time, and in the next second, Baili Han and the young man had collided. Their movements were so fast that besides Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen, nobody could see them clearly. They could only hear something that sounded like thunder rumbling before a thunderstorm.

The two opponents' Battle Qi was crashing into each other outside their bodies, creating a whirlwind that sent sand and pebbles flying.

"Such powerful cultivation! This seems to be the cultivation of the realm of Great Fulfilment. Who are these people?" The surrounding crowd had to keep moving back. They were fearful but also delighted - the assessment competition had not yet begun and they were already witnessing a rare duel between two masters. There were many people in the crowd that had watched the assessment competition more than once, so with their extensive knowledge, they could more or less make out both of their cultivations.

Both Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen's hearts sank. Outsiders could only see that the both of them were fighting spiritedly, as if they were neck to neck. However, she and Ling Yichen could see that Baili Han was already at a disadvantage, and as time progressed, it became more obvious. While Baili Han seemed to struggle more, the other young man dressed in black fought with more courage and energy as the battle progressed. It was as if each time they fought, his Battle Qi became a little more powerful.

What was different about his Battle Qi?

The two figures suddenly came to a stop. A fierce flow of Qi exploded, but the young man dressed in black stood there, unmoving, while Baili Han was forced back again and again. He only managed to stabilize his body after seven or eight steps. His face was slightly pale, and if one looked closely, they would notice his hands behind his body were trembling slightly.

The place where Baili Han had stood earlier now had a muddy pit one foot deep. Even the mahogany pillars of the gambling den's doors looked like they had been slashed by knives.

It was obvious that Baili Han had lost in this fight.

Ling Chuxi and Ling Yichen looked guardedly at the young man opposite them. They had clearly underestimated him earlier, his cultivation was unexpectedly tyrannical.
