Chapter 192: Life and Death Battle
Li Xinghui had hated Ling Xiao ever since Heavenly Peak Citys competition. Furthermore, he had later learned that his younger brother had also been killed by Ling Xiao.
In addition, when Li Clans martial artists had besieged Ling Clan, many had similarly died at his hands.
Therefore, Li Xinghui had always wanted revenge.
He had come to Hollow Cloud City earlier and also broken through to Rank Seven Martial Vein earlier. After all, when in Heavenly Peak City, his cultivation base had been much higher than Ling Xiaos at close to Peak Rank Six Martial Vein.
In addition, according to the recent testing, his potential was not low. All three of his potentials had reached three stars and ninety percent.
Among the ordinary martial artists, it could be considered high, very close to a first-rate qualification.
After coming to Hollow Cloud City, Wan Ben and Heavenly Ren Academy had cultivated him to Mid Rank Seven Martial Vein, so he was very confident that he had already far surpassed Ling Xiao.
The only thing he hated was that Ling Xiao had basically never left Hidden Dragon Battalion, so he hadnt had a chance to seek revenge.
Today, since he had run into Ling Xiao here and even had their potentials compared favorably, how could he give up his chance?
Just when Ling Xiao was preparing to refuse, he suddenly thought of a material he needed to repair his Seven Star Flower.
I can accept your challenge, but there must be some profits for me.
Speak!
Li Xinghui said.
An excellent grade treasured artifact and ten natural crystals!
Ling Xiao didnt need much. It was enough as long as he could gather enough materials to restore the Seven Star Flower.
Okay, I will agree, but we must go to White Cloud Temples Life and Death Cliff, sign a Life and Death Contract, and fight to the death!
Li Xinghui gritted his teeth.
Did you think this through clearly?
Ling Xiao wasnt a person who killed indiscriminately. He had killed Li Xingyun because he had killed his relatives.
He had also killed Li Clans martial artists since they had attacked his clan. Nevertheless, there was no deep hatred between himself and Li Xinghui, so there was no need to fight to the death.
What, are you scared?
Li Xinghui asked coldly.
Can it be that Hidden Dragon Battalions Leader is such a coward?
Yeah, yeah, Hidden Dragon Battalion is filled with cowards!
Useless trash!
Many geniuses of Heavenly Ren Academy began to shout.
Wan Ben also said: As a martial artist, you should have no regard for life and death. You can make a breakthrough only between life and death. I say, Lin Ze, your disciple seems to be not up to much.
He is just kind-hearted. He doesnt want to kill unnecessarily.
Lin Ze indifferently answered.
Hahaha, as I see it, he is just cravenly clinging to life and fearing death.
Wan Ben taunted.
Never mind. Since you want to die this much, I will fulfill your wish. Lets go to the Life and Death Cliff and sign a Life and Death Contract, but I have to add one more thing: one Quasi-Transcendent Martial Skill!
No problem!
Wan Ben replied for Li Xinghui: Since this Governor is here today, if Li Xinghui dies, this Governor will give you the things he owes.
With these words from Lord Governor, this Ling Xiao is assured.
Ling Xiao smiled, then signed the Life and Death Contract in front of everyone. Afterward, he went to White Cloud Temples Life and Death Cliff together.
Originally, this Life and Death Cliff had been for settling disputes in Hollow Cloud City.
If laws and decrees couldnt resolve an issue, it would be solved through strength. At Life and Death Cliff, no one needed to take responsibility for killing an opponent.
Ling Xiao stood there and became the focus of the fight.
Even White Cloud Great Master, Zho Leng, and Ming Tian in the True Spirit hall watched this death battle via a special mirror.
I have long heard that there is a 14-year-old genius named Ling Xiao in the Hidden Dragon Battalion. Is that him?
Yes, hes just 14-years-old, but he has already become a dignified Martial Master. His talent is amazing. No wonder that he was selected as an entry disciple by White Cloud Great Master.
I heard that he seemed to be able to use various incomplete martial souls. I wonder if that is true.
That should be true since this kind of rumor cant be baseless. After all, he has defeated Lu Xing.
Li Xinghui has also defeated Lu Xing before, so that is nothing to be proud of.
Well, thats right. When Li Xinghui had just broken through to Initial Rank Seven Martial Vein, his strength had already surpassed Lu Xings. In addition, Governor Wan Ben personally cultivated him, and he is now already a Mid Rank Seven Martial Vein Martial Master, so his strength is definitely above Lu Xings.
Ive also heard that in last months competition, if it were not for believing the Hidden Dragon Battalion to be too weak, Li Xinghui would have been sent. But unexpectedly, Lu Xing ate a big loss. If this had been known earlier, it might have ended differently.
Yes, potential alone doesnt represent actual strength. Ling Xiaos potential might be higher than Li Xinghuis, but his strength is definitely inferior. It would truly be a pity if he were killed here today.
Do you think White Cloud Great Master will make a move to stop this match?
If Ling Xiao were a true disciple, that might have been possible, but he isnt one. Great Master has never paid too much attention to entry disciples.
This person clearly knew inside information.
In any case, there were a few who supported Ling Xiao, the vast majority didnt particularly like him.
Li Xinghui was too cruel and ferocious; moreover, he could display the full power of his animal martial soul, so not many were confident in Ling Xiao.
It was a pity. Ling Xiaos potential was clearly higher than Li Xinghuis, and given enough time, he would definitely surpass Li Xinghui, but he would certainly die here today.
Hearing the discussion, Ling Xiao had an impulse to burst out into laughter. Could it be that they hadnt heard that he had already defeated Li Xinghui once in Heavenly Peak City?
He would never lose to a person who he had already defeated.
Ling Xiao, your potential is indeed pretty good; I didnt expect it to be better than mine.
Li Xinghui stood there, glaring at Ling Xiao, and said: However, you have to understand that no matter how strong your potential is, you will die without actual strength!
In his eyes, Ling Xiao seemed to have already turned into a corpse.
Ling Xiao replied: You are right. Without strength, no matter how good your potential is, its useless. When a person dies, nothing is left. Its a pity that the one to die here today will be you.
Big words!
Li Xinghui shouted: Dont think that because you have defeated me once before, you can defeat me today too. With your strength, if you had joined Heavenly Ren Academy, you would have just become a mid or low tier disciple. Your Hidden Dragon Battalion is simply not worth mentioning.
Belittling Hidden Dragon Battalion in front of Lin Ze must have been instigated by Wan Ben from behind-the-scenes.
Lin Ze was unhappy, but it was not good to argue with a trifling Rank Seven Martial Master. He could only endure these insults for the time being.
Seeing Lin Zes expression, Wan Ben laughed inwardly while pretending to glare Li Xinghui. Nonsense, do you have the qualifications to slander Hidden Dragon Battalions strength? Although they indeed have lost almost all the monthly competitions, you also cannot say this.
Li Xinghui said indifferently: This disciple is straightforward and plain-spoken. I was just speaking frankly. If I offended General Lin or the Hidden Dragon Battalion, I hope you all will forgive me.
What a straightforward and plain-spoken person!
In any case, Ling Xiao was also the Hidden Dragon Battalions Leader. Moreover, he greatly respected Lin Ze, so he was very upset.
Hehe, originally, I pitied you, thinking that it was not easy for you to cultivate to the Martial Master realm and thought to give you a chance. But your words made me very unhappy. If I cant defeat you within six moves, I will commit suicide on the spot!
Ling Xiaos words were cold and resolute.
Merely, these words greatly shocked everyone.
Lin Ze also couldnt help but frown and shake his head. He had believed Ling Xiao to be a calm and cool-headed child. How had he turned so impulsive in this incident?
