C88 Evil White
There are only a few matches left today, and the rest of the contestants are mostly at the early ninth stage of Qi Refining. Only the white-clothed man who had been staring at Ye Hong Tian was at the eighth stage of Qi Refining, and this was the man's match.
The man in white's name was Xie Bai. It was unknown whether it was his real name or a fake name, but Ye Hongtian knew that there was no sect or family with Xie's surname. Ye Hongtian felt that Xie Bai was most likely using a fake name.
Xie Bai came to the ring and ignored his opponent. He started to look around in the audience. Finally, he fixed his eyes on Ye Hongtian's position and gave Ye Hongtian an evil smile.
Ye Hongtian frowned in the audience. He stared at Xie Bai in the ring and thought for a while. He had never offended this person on his way here. Why did Xie Bai target him?
"Could it be that the Ouyang Clan has already discovered me and sent Xie Bai to kill me?"
Ye Hong Tian finally concluded this possibility, but he immediately denied it. Xie Bai was only at the eighth level of Qi Refinement. Ouyang Hui knew that he could kill a Qi Disciple at the seventh level of Qi Refinement. It was impossible for him to send someone at the eighth level of Qi Refinement to kill him.
If he could not figure it out, Ye Hongtian would not continue thinking about it. In any case, he just had to avoid fighting Xie Bai. Xie Bai was only at the eighth level of Qi Refinement. It was hard to say if he could survive this battle.
At this time, the match on the arena had already begun. Ye Hong Tian stared fixedly at the two people on the arena. The more he looked, the more serious his expression became.
In the illusion array, Xie Bai didn't even look at his opponent. His gaze was always on Ye Hongtian, as if he could see Ye Hongtian through the illusion array.
Logically speaking, Ye Hong Tian wouldn't be able to see the outside world in the illusion array. However, Xie Bai kept staring at him, which made Ye Hong Tian's scalp tingle.
What was even more terrifying was that Xie Bai had never moved from his position when fighting with a contestant at the ninth level of Qi Refinement. That contestant at the ninth level of Qi Refinement would be crushed by Xie Bai's fist or palm if he didn't use any moves.
He clearly had the strength to crush his opponent, but he still didn't defeat his opponent. It was as if he was deliberately showing off to Ye Hong Tian.
The match continued for an incense stick of time. During this incense stick of time, Xie Bai had been defending, but he did not attack. He kept wearing an evil smile on his face as he looked at Ye Hong Tian. This caused the audience in the audience to start complaining.
"What is this Xie Bai called? What is he doing? He still can't fight it?"
"That's right. His strength is clearly much higher than his opponent's, but he just doesn't defeat his opponent. This is clearly toying with his opponent."
"This match is the most boring match I've ever seen!"
... ""
Complaints kept coming from the audience, and people kept cursing Xie Bai. Xie Bai could hear these voices in the illusion array, but he still only defended and did not attack, as if he was deliberately trying to anger the audience.
At this moment, Ye Hong Tian suddenly stood up and stared at Xie Bai in the illusion array. He had soul power, and even if he didn't use soul power, he had extraordinary insight. He found that Xie Bai's cultivation was increasing at an extremely slow speed.
When Ye Hongtian first noticed Xie Bai, he was at the eighth level of Qi Refinement, and now he had reached the peak of the eighth level!
On the other hand, the attack power of the contestant at the ninth level of Qi Refinement was getting weaker and weaker each time. Although there was a reason why his physical strength was not enough, there were definitely other reasons mixed within.
"Could it be that Xie Bai cultivates some kind of evil secret technique that allows him to absorb the opponent's cultivation through the opponent's attack?!"
This guess startled even Ye Hong Tian. If this was really the case, then Xie Bai would be much more dangerous than the Ouyang Family's assassination attempt.
He then looked at Xie Bai's gaze that was staring at him with a hint of greed. He must have been interested in Xie Bai's cultivation base after watching his match.
Ye Hong Tian glanced at Elder Xuan in the air and found that Elder Xuan did not have any reaction. It was unknown if he did not discover Xie Bai's strange aspects or if he had tacitly approved of this matter.
"Do you want me to go and remind Elder Xuan?"
Ye Hong Tian stroked his chin and looked at Xie Bai in the environment with a serious expression. This was what he thought.
Just as Ye Hongtian was thinking this, Xie Bai suddenly rushed towards his opponent and slammed his palm against the chest of the contestant. This was the first time since the start of the competition that Xie Bai had taken the initiative to attack.
Ye Hongtian frowned as he watched Xie Bai attack. This was because Xie Bai's palm strike was no different from an ordinary eighth level Qi Refining martial artist.
"Xie Bai cultivates an evil skill that is only good at defense? To pay attention to defense and then slowly absorb the opponent's cultivation to increase one's own cultivation, this is truly an evil art!" Ye Hongtian analyzed.
If Xie Bai's defense was only strong, he still had a way to deal with him. He forcefully suppressed the urge to complain to Elder Xuan and sat back down in the audience to continue watching the match.1
Because his opponent was very weak at the moment, Xie Bai directly slapped his opponent and made him take a few steps back. After that, he did not stop attacking. A wave of indiscriminate attacks blasted towards his opponent.
Although this contestant could not display the strength of the ninth level of Qi Refining at this time, only defending gave Xie Bai a headache.
Xie Bai's attacks continued for five minutes, hitting until Xie Bai's head was covered in sweat. After Xie Bai's indiscriminate bombing, this contestant collapsed due to exhaustion. Only then did Elder Xuan undo the illusory magic array and announce Xie Bai's victory.
After watching this battle, Ye Hongtian had a rough understanding of Xie Bai's strength. Xie Bai's advantage was his defense, but his attack was extremely weak. Challenging a ninth level Qi Condensation martial artist was already the limit of his strength.
Xie Bai's opponent was carried down. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled as he made a neck rubbing gesture towards Ye Hong Tian.
Ye Hongtian lightly smiled and also did the same thing to Xie Bai. After watching this match, Ye Hongtian had a 90% chance of defeating Xie Bai, and the last 10% could also be ignored.
Unless Xie Bai's defense was so strong that he couldn't even break the attack of a half-step True Yuan, he had the talisman that Old Sha had given him. That was Old Sha's all-out attack.
Although the Martial Sacrifice couldn't harm the opponent's life, if Xie Bai's defense was really unbreakable, Ye Hong Tian would still use the talisman to kill Xie Bai without hesitation.
After that... Ye Hong Tian had no interest in watching the competition anymore. He was going to Elder Xuan's room to exchange for the Pill Pattern Divine Pill after the Martial Sacrifice ended. He urgently needed the ten thousand high-grade vitality stones.
Elder Xuan's room was ridiculously large. It simply couldn't be compared to the rooms of the participants. It was just that there was a lack of an Essence Gathering Array in the rooms of the participants.
He casually pulled over a stool and sat down. He picked up the teapot on the coffee table, poured a cup of tea, and drank it. Just as he took a sip, Ye Hong Tian's eyes widened as he stared at the teacup in his hand in disbelief.
