111 The Rules Were Changed
The paragons in the city looked at the figure that was the focus of everyone’s attention and couldn’t help but feel immense pressure.
“It looks like there’s really no chance at all…” Cai Jiulou frowned when he saw the rider.
Half of the thick-skinned fifth-refinement great demon’s body had been torn apart. Its bones and flesh were all twisted. It was obvious that it had been killed bit by bit by a great destructive force.
Its broken body was frozen in the cold wind, making the fifth-refined great demon’s death look even more miserable.
“Junior Brother?”
In the crowd, Qi Yangbing was surprised to find Qin Huai, who was covered in dirt. He stared at the latter, who was dressed shabbily, and had mixed feelings.
“Junior Brother has suffered.” Qi Yangbing patted Qin Huai’s shoulder solemnly and even deliberately made Qin Huai’s gaze turn away from the figure that everyone was looking at.
The two of them had both left the city to gain experience, but what was the result? It was clear at a glance.
Qi Yangbing didn’t want his junior brother’s state of mind to crack because of this.
“It’s actually not that bad. The food and living in this world of ice and snow are not bad. It’s just that I look a little embarrassed in my clothes.” Qin Huai told the truth. The time he had spent in the gorge had been very comfortable.
After that, he could only say that the demons were too immoral. It was fine if a few or a dozen of them came together, but how could they attack a defenseless ordinary person like him together with hundreds of them? He even used strategy.
Qin Huai thought about his escape and counterattack for the next month. Not only had he used up all his resources, but the thousand refined armor that Master Song had painstakingly forged had also been bitten to pieces.
Along the way, he used them as hidden weapons and rewarded them to the demons.
When he thought of everything that had happened before, Qin Huai could not help but feel physically and mentally exhausted.
Hmm~
Qin Huai raised his hands and stretched his back, doing a long stretch.
Ka ka ka…
The joints in his body creaked, as if he had been completely relaxed at this moment.
Qi Yangbing looked at the unkempt Qin Huai from the side and felt that this junior brother of his seemed to be a little different from two months ago.
Qi Yangbing shook his head. It was reasonable for him to become stronger after two months of wind and frost.
“Come with me to change your clothes first.” Qi Yangbing pulled Qin Huai and was about to leave.
However, they did not expect a figure to block their path. It was Cao Wang, who had been speaking rudely to Qin Huai at the Drunken Immortal restaurant.
He sneered and stood in front of the two of them, saying sarcastically, “Don’t be in a hurry to leave. These two are the proud sons of heaven who have returned from our city’s experiential learning. Why don’t you let everyone see you and enjoy the applause? ”
Cao Wang’s words immediately attracted the attention of the people around him.
“This beggar is Qin Huai?”
“My God, how did he become like this?”
“I’m afraid he’s not going to cultivate, but to escape…”
“Isn’t escaping a form of cultivation?”
Many people around him spoke rudely, and the sarcasm in their words was not concealed at all. When facing Qi Yangbing, they would still restrain themselves and deliberately ignore the hostile relationship between them.
However, with Qin Huai, it was different.
Da da da da…
Not far away, Reihom, who was on horseback, also turned to look at Qin Huai when he heard the voice.
He sat on the back of a tall horse, blocking the sun. It seemed like he was looking down at an ant like a god.
Their eyes met.
Qin Huai was very at ease. On the other hand, the few elites who were sandwiched between the two suddenly felt uncomfortable and subconsciously made room for the two.
“The rules of the grand martial competition have been changed.” Reihom looked at Qin Huai, his voice cold. “Master wants me to take the first place. I don’t hold any grudges against you, but I want to give you and Hu Jingshan a chance.”
Qi Yangbing said in a low voice, “Before Reihom left, he told the city lord’s mansion and the heads of the eight dojos his thoughts. Everyone agreed two days ago.
“The grand martial competition has changed from an arena to a fight in the forest. The last one standing will be the champion. Siege, poisoning… Anything goes. Reihom was the one who suggested it. ”
“Oh?” Qin Huai raised his brows slightly. He was very surprised by this rule.
If it was as Qi Yangbing had said and the rules were changed to this, then… the internal agreement of the seven big dojos would most likely be invalid.
Compared to himself, Qin Huai believed that the person everyone below the eight martial roll wanted to get rid of the most was Reihom. There was no one else.
Reihom had suppressed this group of geniuses for far too long, and everyone was holding their breath, trying to pull him down. Therefore, this change in the rules was, without a doubt, extremely disadvantageous to Reihom.
But the key was… Reihom himself had proposed this condition.
“He’s so confident.” Qin Huai couldn’t help but praise his opponent’s confidence and strength. “But no matter what method I use, the first place will still be mine.”
Qin Huai’s voice was firm. However, a burst of mocking laughter suddenly rang out in the surroundings.
“You’re too arrogant.”
“I wonder if you’ve defeated Qi Yangbing? That fellow is the weakest in the top ten…”
A few young people sneered. Only Xing Bufan, who was in the crowd, was biting his finger as his eyes darted between Reihom and Qin Huai.
“Senior Brother, do you think Qin Huai has a chance?” The junior brother beside Xing Bufan looked at Xing Bufan’s expression and asked in a surprised tone.
“There’s a chance.” Xing Bufan didn’t beat around the bush.
“Ah? That Qin Huai does indeed look much stronger than before he left. But at most, he has just broken through to the fourth refinement, much less Reihom. Even if one of the top ten of the eight martial roll were to be chosen, that Qin Huai would not be a match for him.”
The junior brother’s words did not contain the slightest bit of ridicule.
