[ Dragon Spine Fluid: Liquid condensed from the essence of dragon energy. After consumption, it can strengthen the body and increase Qi. Every three drops of Dragon Spine Fluid provides a random aptitude point.]
...
"That's good!"
Wei Bujuan didn't want to waste a minute and swallowed all nine drops of Dragon Spine Fluid in one go.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
It was as if thunder had exploded in his ears.
His eardrums were bulging.
The next second, a low dragon's roar came from his bones and muscles.
Wei Bujuan felt his entire body relax, and all the pores had been opened up!
...
[ You've consumed enough Dragon Spine Fluid. Your sword dao aptitude +1 ]
...
[ You've consumed enough Dragon Spine Fluid. Your tea ceremony aptitude +1 ]
...
[ You've consumed enough Dragon Spine Fluid. Your cooking aptitude +1 ]
...
"This is a bit too random!" Wei Bujuan complained.
However, there were so many talents, and it was not easy to add one point to the sword dao.
To the other prodigies, Dragon Spine Fluid was used to strengthen their bodies and refine their Qi.
Wei Bujuan could clearly feel that his Elemental Lightning Qi had become stronger!
"The system managed to defeat ten people in a row. It was truly impressive!"
"I'm normal, so I should be stronger than the system, right?"
He thought about it and found that most games' systems are pretty tricky...
Wei Bujuan confidently waited for an hour and finally heard from a challenger.
...
"I am Deng Yue, Huaqing sect's core disciple, and I am here to challenge Han Li, the top prodigy!"
...
In addition to the righteous and evil paths and the audience, more and more young cultivators interested in dragon energy swarmed into Prodigy's Arena in Wind Thunder Gorge.
.
Just as Han Li was resting ...
Some people tried to challenge Li Yinghua, ranked second, and Qi Wuchang, the last to obtain the dragon energy.
The result was the same as everyone's expectation.
Both Li Yinghua and Qi Wuchang had easily defeated the challengers!
Moreover, Han Li won ten battles in a row ...
Everyone realized the prodigies were indeed extraordinary cultivators!
But even so ...
There were still endless challengers.
This was the chance of a lifetime for many young cultivators.
More and more challengers went up the stage and were defeated.
The names on Prodigy Ranking were still the same!
This made the itinerant cultivators in the fishing village coming for the show feel despair.
Prodigy's Arena seemed to have become a decoration.
People wondered if any challenger could actually make it.
What kind of challenger would have the chance to take away a wisp of dragon energy from these prodigies?
Soon, the challenger might break the record appeared.
That was the outstanding disciple from the Huaqing Sect, Deng Yue!
...
"Huaqing Sect can't sit still anymore. Although they have Li Yinghua, who is ranked second, none of their other disciples have obtained any dragon energy. This makes their life-and-death battle with the Black Frost Demonic Sect seem a little ridiculous..."
...
"Deng Yue is Deng Chan's younger brother. He is usually low-key. Although he's a core disciple, he doesn't act arrogantly and is kind to the servants. This man is totally opposite from his brother, and he is an extraordinary cultivator. I heard that he captured a dragon when he was only at the Foundation Establishment stage!"
...
"I heard Deng Chan's death was a great hit for Deng Yue, so he went on a retreat for half a month. After that, his cultivation base improved greatly, and he now has the strength of an intermediate Golden Core cultivator! It means he is as powerful as Li Yinghua! If Huaqing Sect didn't allow their dciplies to fight against each other, the top core disciple might be another person!"
...
Outside the tea shop in the fishing village, the well-informed itinerant cultivator shared the news. Perhaps he had learned his lesson from the last time, so he clearly explained Deng Yue's background and cultivation base before the two people on the stage started fighting.
Everyone shook their heads.
"I've never heard of Deng Yue's amazing battle record. If he's really on par with Deng Chan, he might be able to last a few rounds. However, if he's weaker and gets swept away by a sword stike like the others, wouldn't that be humiliating to the Huaqing Sect? "
The itinerant cultivator Mi Fu even exaggeratedly raised his finger.
"One strike!"
"Prodigy Han only needed one sword strike to send Deng Yue home!"
While they were talking, the people in the ring had already started to move.
Everyone stared at them.
As soon as Deng Yue went on stage, he then turned into a ray of light and quickly circled Han Li!
"He's afraid!"
Mi Fu laughed, "How can a coward like him defeat Prodigy Han?"
...
In the arena, Deng Yue was indeed very nervous!
He had witnessed Han Li's sword strike with his own eyes.
That technique was not only at the point of perfection but seemed to have been born with Han Li!
He knew that he couldn't take that sword strike.
Thus, he immediately used the Huaqing Sect's secret technique, Small Aurora Escape Technique'!
This technique wasn't as powerful as the true Aurora Escape Technique, but it usually worked on cultivators below the Golden Core stage!
Deng Yue was a cautious man.
He needed to survive first before figuring out a way to win the battle!
This was his strategy.
That was why he didn't dare to attack first.
He could only wait for his opponent to make a move.
After a few moments, as expected, Han Li made a move!
He slowly released a Qi sword.
It trembled as it flew in the direction of the escaping light!
...
"This sword strike..." Deng Yue muttered with a solemn expression.
"Why is he acting like a beginner?"
However, he still chose to dodge the attack to play safe ...
Unexpectedly, Han Li kept attacking!
The sword technique was clumsy, and his moves were full of mistakes. However, Deng Yue didn't dare to fight back!
"What the hell is he doing?"
"Dealing with this sword technique like a walk in the park..."
"Is he teasing me?"
Deng Yue broke out in a cold sweat.
He dodged the sword strikes like walking on eggshells.
He was also trying his best to understand his opponent's attacking pattern.
However, the problem was that his opponent's sword technique didn't make any sense.
Deng Yue was somewhat frustrated.
"I... I don't understand what's going on!"
However, he still remembered how powerful Han Li's strikes were in the previous battles.
He didn't dare to act rashly, so he had no choice but to dodge the attacks.
The situation gradually came to a standstill.
...
On the other hand, everything was new for Wei Bujuan.
With the dragon energy in his body, he had the combat power equivalent to an early Golden Core stage cultivator. However, he had no experience in fighting, and he only knew a little about Yang Qi Sword. Therefore, he made a lot of mistakes in his attack. Unfortunately, he did not realize how lousy his attacking skills were!
On the contrary, he even thought that he looked like a movie star!
His opponent was busy dodging his attacks, right?
Apparently, the effect of his hard work in Dan Yangzi's Sword Technique was very significant!
"Practice makes perfect, haha!"
The more he fought, the bolder he became.
The more reckless he was, the more nervous Deng Yue was.
After a long time, Wei Bujuan started to get upset.
Why did that guy keep dodging?
"Come on! Fight me like a real man!" he thought.
He might have screamed if he hadn't needed to protect his public image!
After a while, Wei Bujuan realized something was wrong.
He felt that his sword light was a game for his opponent!
The man before him didn't have any intention of fighting him.
"Is he playing with me?"
Wei Bujuan's heart sank.
The sword light in his hand was messy and chaotic.
The bystanders found this series of sword moves were full of flaws!
...
At first, the demon cult disciples were still holding their breath and watching with rapt attention on the west side of Wind Thunder Gorge.
The expressions on their faces gradually changed subtly.
"His sword technique is even worse than my dog's..."
"Is this seriously a demonstration?"
"Maybe there is something deep under these lame sword moves?"
"Learn? What can we learn from him..."
Everyone from the demonic sect was confused.
However, Wan Chunfeng did not speak, so they could only memorize Han Li's every move!
...
Next to the teahouse, Mi Fu was also confused.
"What's Prodigy Han doing? Is he teasing Deng Yue? This sword technique is completely different from the previous one!"
The little girl holding the sorna also stared at the ring.
"Is this still the same person?"
Before she finished her sentence, Mi Fu let out a shrill cry.
"Damn it! Prodigy Han, be careful!"
In the arena, the situation of the battle changed rapidly.
Deng Yue, who had been dodging for a long time, held his breath and suddenly avoided Han Li's sword light. Three balls of true fire floated in the air, one after another, aiming for Han Li!
After spending this much time in the ring, Deng Yue finally came to his senses!
If he had forgotten about the stunning performance, Han Li had shown when he defeated the other challengers, this man in front of him was a newbie who knew nothing!
His sword moves were somewhat clumsy.
It reminded Deng Yue of the boy with a flute who had been asking to learn sword techniques from him!
This was unreasonable, but he always knew how to seize opportunities.
...
"No matter how those people lost before, I just have to play my best. Let me show you what I got!"
...
A trace of determination flashed through Deng Yue's eyes.
Seeing the three balls of true fire coming to him, Wei Bujuan instantly panicked!
He had no actual combat experience!
Once the intensity of the battle increased, he even forgot how to form a spell.
His mind was completely blank!
"Azure, Azure and Purple Lightening!"
Wei Bujuan barely dodged the three balls of the true fire.
However, Deng Yue was ready to use his ace in the hole!
...
[ Huaqing Sect's Core Spell Technique: Yimu Qi Capture ]!
...
Boom!
A giant hand grew out of the ring and grabbed Wei Bujuan tightly!
"Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t!"
"It doesn't look good now!"
An idea came to Wei Bujuan's mind, and he immediately used the ultimate strategy in gaming from his previous life.
"Clcik it!"
"As long as I retreat fast enough, I won't lose!"
...
[Prodigy's Arena: Do you want to exit the battle?
...
[ Warning: The system will take over after you exit the battle! ]
...
[ The system will continue the battle! ]
...
Sigh!
Wei Bujuan's consciousness escaped from his prodigy incarnation in Clear wind Temple.
He let out a long breath.
Fortunately, he had retreated fast enough.
Otherwise, he would have embarrassed himself!
"Deng Yue must be a tough guy. It's okay to lose against him, right?"
He cleared his throat.
The next second, a notification popped out before Wei Bujuan's eyes.
...
[ Prodigy's Arena: You have defeated Deng Yue, the core disciple of Huaqing Sect. You have defeated 11 people in total!
...
You have obtained Dragon Spine Liquid X1! ]
...
"What?"
Wei Bujuan was shocked!
Had he won the battle?
What a surprise!
...
