124: Chapter 124 is here: The Spirit-Suppressing Array

Zhou Bai quickly took the inscribed tablet, running his fingers over the inscriptions on it.

"Mr. Yamashita, aren't you being a bit unreasonable? How am I supposed to understand writing like this!"

Zhou Bai frowned slightly, speaking somewhat angrily.

"Hahaha, even we in Sakura Country haven't successfully deciphered and translated this Heaven-Escaping Secret Art. You chose it yourself, you can't blame me!"

Seeing Zhou Bai's anger, Yamashita Tetsuya let out a rare laugh. "I've already given you the Heaven-Escaping Secret Art. If you can't comprehend it, that's your problem!"

Because Sakura Country hadn't obtained the heaven-escaping shuttle, only its secret art, they hadn't invested massive resources into deciphering it.

Only their Yamashita family was working on the deciphering, and progress was extremely slow.

Zhou Bai's expression turned extremely unpleasant. He continued examining the inscribed tablet in front of him, seemingly still fuming.

"Alright, it's time for you to purify the raging Qi and Blood Power for the others from our Sakura Country!"

Yamashita Tetsuya then said solemnly.

"Have them come over quickly!"

Zhou Bai said angrily, his face filled with icy coldness. "I, Zhou Bai, keep my word!"

"Excellent, truly worthy of being the Thunderous Youth from the East!"

Seeing that Zhou Bai, despite his anger, still insisted on completing the transaction, Yamashita Tetsuya looked at him with eyes full of appreciation.

Then, the other ability users from Sakura Country came before Zhou Bai one by one. After handing over sufficient fierce beast inner elixirs, they began to pacify the violent Qi and Blood Power within their bodies.

Zhou Bai, however, was somewhat distracted, looking at the inscribed tablet while helping them purify.

The people from Sakura Country didn't mind. After all, they could understand Zhou Bai's feelings—obtaining a secret art he couldn't understand at all, yet still having to help them purify their internal Qi and Blood Power.

After more than 20 minutes, Zhou Bai finally seemed to give up completely. With an icy expression, he put away the inscribed tablet and then purified the Qi and Blood Power for the Sakura Country people.

Seeing Zhou Bai's cold face, the Sakura Country group felt even more excited inside, feeling as if they had gotten an incredible bargain.

However, what they didn't know was that an additional secret art had appeared on Zhou Bai's personal panel.

[Heaven-Escaping Secret Art]: The companion secret art for the S-grade heaven-escaping shuttle. It can unlock the shuttle's hidden forms and unleash more of its power...

Two hours later, all five of Sakura Country's World Martial Arts Competition contestants had pacified the violent Qi and Blood Power within their bodies.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhou Bai. We hope to have another chance to cooperate in the future!"

After the purification was complete, the Sakura Country group said to Zhou Bai with satisfaction.

Zhou Bai didn't speak, just looked towards another direction.

"Kana-chan, you must properly appease Mr. Zhou Bai's anger. He has sacrificed a lot. Sakura Country will remember your contribution!"

Before leaving, the group glanced at Hashimoto Kana and said to her.

"Mr. Zhou Bai, I'm sorry..."

Seeing that Zhou Bai still seemed angry, Hashimoto Kana then said to him with a pitiful look.

Hashimoto Kana didn't know that Yamashita Tetsuya's heaven-escaping shuttle secret art required deciphering. She had thought it was just a top-tier secret art that could be cultivated directly.

Now, seeing Zhou Bai still somewhat angry made Hashimoto Kana a bit worried.

"It's fine. Didn't they say it? They want you to appease my anger!"

Zhou Bai slowly turned around, his gaze calm as he looked at the pure and stunningly beautiful Hashimoto Kana in front of him.

Although Hashimoto Kana was from Sakura Country, one had to admit that her looks were truly exceptional. Her features were charming yet delicate, naturally giving people a feeling of wanting to fiercely... break her.

Combined with her perfect figure, delicate skin, and the Sakura Country charm in her eyes and brows, Zhou Bai admitted he was... aroused.

"Please rest assured, Mr. Zhou Bai, I will definitely cooperate fully!"

Hashimoto Kana then directly threw herself into Zhou Bai's arms and whispered, "Let's go back. I'll make sure Mr. Zhou Bai is satisfied..."

"No need. Right here is fine."

Zhou Bai pinched Hashimoto Kana's cheek and then said lightly.

"This... but... there are people outside..."

Hashimoto Kana quickly grabbed hold, speaking nervously and worriedly, her eyes brimming with a captivating fear.

"Don't worry, I have my own methods."

Zhou Bai said lightly.

After speaking, Zhou Bai took out a white diamond-shaped crystal from his space ring.

Injecting mental power into it, immediately, an enigmatic and profound power filled the space around the two of them.

This power formed an array, isolating the area where Zhou Bai and Hashimoto Kana were.

"This is an Absolute Barrier Spirit Formation? Mr. Zhou Bai actually has something like this!"

Seeing the array around them, Hashimoto Kana's eyes lit up, and she quickly said.

The Absolute Barrier Spirit Formation was a top-tier isolation array that could conceal one's immediate environment and hide oneself.

Although one could see the outside world from within, as long as the Absolute Barrier Spirit Formation wasn't broken, the outside world couldn't spy on or detect the scene inside.

"Mm, precisely the Absolute Barrier Spirit Formation."

Zhou Bai nodded.

This Absolute Barrier Spirit Formation was something Zhou Bai had obtained from the space ring of the M Country rookie ability user, Karen Smith.

After obtaining this Absolute Barrier Spirit Formation, Zhou Bai had tested it many times. Its concealment effect was practically unrivaled.

Now, it happened to come in handy.

Hashimoto Kana, looking through the array, could see the ongoing bonfire party and various activities outside. Her whole body trembled slightly.

"Then... then it's okay, Mr. Zhou Bai..."

Hashimoto Kana then whispered.

Although this still made Hashimoto Kana somewhat shy, having the array for isolation greatly reduced her worries.

Moreover, Zhou Bai's mood wasn't good right now, and Hashimoto Kana felt she should take good care of his emotions.

"Fine, let's begin then. I shouldn't need to teach you what to do, right?"

Zhou Bai, feeling Hashimoto Kana's charm, then said lightly.

"I... I understand, Mr. Zhou Bai. Although I haven't tried before, I'll do my best..."

Hashimoto Kana gathered up her beautiful hair, speaking gently and seductively.

Then, Hashimoto Kana...

Seeing the diligent yet clumsy Hashimoto Kana in front of him, Zhou Bai also felt a strange emotion in his heart.

Truly worthy of being a super rookie ability user from Sakura Country. Her first performance was much stronger than Shen Ninger's...

...

Half an hour later, Hashimoto Kana no longer knew what she was doing.

Zhou Bai slowly helped Hashimoto Kana up, then had her lean against the tree trunk in front...
