Chapter 174: Golden Shield
How do you like me now? At least you were smart enough to know not to push me, or youd suffer the same fate.
Zhang Ji stepped down the stage and started mocking Li Mo again as he passed him.
Li Mos silence only egged Zhang Ji on, starting to sound like a guidance counselor.
Zhang Ji swaggered off and Bai Wudi said, cant you just tten him?
I can.
Then do it. This guy doesnt know when to quit.
And how am I supposed to do that? Wont ttening him be against the rules?
True Bai Wudi paused, finding wisdom in Li Mos words.
What would you do when a bug started buzzing in your ear?
Makes sense Bai Wudi bobbed his head.
While they were talking, the victor for the third match was decided and the referee called for Shenjings Li Mo and Shanbeis Yang Fan next.
Not many in the Experts Alliance headquarters knew who Li Mo was, and funny enough, the same applied to his opponent, Yang Fan.
They were both newbies in the alliance, not even half a year in.Only allowed on
Shanbeis Yang Fan, honored to be your adversary! Across from Li Mo, Yang Fan cupped his hands.
Yang Fan was older than Li Mo and looked like a soldier. A more fitting description would be, a wuxia novels protagonist.
An umon one!
Yang Fan stared at Li Mo, right up till the referee gave the signal. But even then he didnt make a move.
I forfeit.
Yang Fan waved.
Wa~
The crowd was expecting this easy on the eyesd would give them a good show, when in fact he up and threw the fight.
Whatever for? They were left speechless.
I was fortunate to have met you. May we see each other again, if fate allows it.
Yang Fan cupped his hands again then briskly stepped down.
Li Mos first match was a win without a fight!
Laughter came from behind Yang Fan.
What were you expecting? This oue goes without saying! Below Shanbei we have Shenjing. These guys are the worst of the worst. Such a show is only obvious.
Its unexpected, not a disappointment. None of you know, but I and Shanbeis leader are friends. He told me once that he took in a genius talent, Yang Fan. He said that Shanbei will rise in ranks thanks to Yang Fans power.
He went as far as saying Shanbeis base will have a high chance of being among the top four bases. All because of Yang Fan.
Ha-ha-ha, you crack me up.
Yang Fan sure is a genius.
Loosing without breaking a sweat. Now Ive seen everything.
From the 5th all the way up to the 7th match, that was all the crowd was talking about, Yang Fans defeat.
Of course, filled with ridicule, turning him into aughingstock.
Yang Fan sat calmly in the audience. Oh, he did hear all those mockeries and taunts, but not one got through to him.
Shanbeis leader, Luo Lie took the same stance. He wasnt the least bit angry he chose to forfeit the match.
Yang Fan didnt turn and said, Leader, luck this time was the best. Forgive me.
No need to exin. I trust you. Shanbeis leader smiled.
Yang Fan nodded and looked deeply at Li Mo.
Tiannans Living Diamond Shan Ji versus Mobeis Heaven-ripping Sage Zhang Lu!
After a few in matches, a true match was underway!
In my eyes, Living Diamond aint much to look at. See how Ill tear him to pieces!
Heaven-ripping Sage Zhang Lu jumped on stage. He was tiny and skinny, while Mobei Provinces people were all built like a brick outhouse, like a gorr.
Zhang Lu wed the air and tracks could be seen left behind.
Living Diamond, my Eagle w crushes even diamonds. Do be careful.
Shan Jis only response was to hold his hands in prayer.
Begin!
Watch out, here Ie!
Zhang Lu jumped Shan Ji and wed.
Hum~
Shan Ji chanted and his body took on a golden hue. Zhang Lus attack smashed into it but could go no further.
Hum~
Hum~
Shan Jis Golden Shield expanded up to five meters, pushing Zhang Lu back despite wing at it like a beast.
My god, a five-meter Golden Shield!
I-is this a once in a thousand Shaolin genius?
I heard training the Golden Shield to an inch can stop artillery. With how big this one is, it can oust a nuclear st!
Amazing
Hum~
Hum~
Hum~
Yet Shan Jis Golden Shield kept expanding even as the crowd was in awe of his skill
It kept going even beyond ten meters
Shan Jis Golden Shield pushed Shan Ji off the stage.
Amituofo. Shan Ji ended.
The crowd went wild.
Zhang Lu was ashen, dumbly staring as he sat there.
His loss was just too miserable.
Silver Heroine versus Shanbeis Luo Fangfang!
The referee already announced the next contenders.
Thump!
He just finished and Lin Qingrous flying kick sent Luo Fangfangs moe face off stage.
It was so fast and sharp that no one saw what she just did yet Luo Fangfang was out of bounds.
Every feral is worthy of their title.
Such a fast and fierce kick
What fierce? Cant you see she was holding back? Luo Fangfang isnt even scratched
Her control is wicked!
Lin Qingrou left.
Its fine, the result wont matter. Just take it as a learning experience.
Shanbeis leader Luo Lie consoled his daughter, Luo Fangfang.
Luo Fangfang teared up and started bawling.
Once the first round finished, half of thepetitors were out. And the second round marked the start of more and more outstanding pairings.
Shenjings Shi Zhenqiang and Zheng Wufang advanced as well. Shi Zhenqiangs talent wasid bare for all to smell and left a loooongsting impression on participants and crowd alike. While Zheng Wufangs was in boring, yet always seemed to pull off a wless victory.
In the second round, Li Mo went up first. His opponent, Chuan Provinces Wang Yan.
The referee gave the start and Wang Yans arm went up in mes. He didnt get to throw any mes though, as his knees hit the dirt and his hands clutching his belly. He was out.
Wang Yans wound rpsed
In hisst round, he met a Xixiangs base expert. Though he scored a win through sheer dumb luck, he was left with a heavy wound.
And so allowed Li Mo to score another win, without lifting a finger!
Its providence! Providence, I tell you! Bai Wudi pped enthused.
Li Mo spread his hands like he didnt do anything.
