174: The super fierce Zheng Xilong
Just as Zheng Zhixiang thought his younger brother was being hunted, the Fu City Martial Academy exchange competition had just begun.
It turned out that when the students of the Fu City Martial Academy learned that Chu Qing and Zheng Xilong were participating in the exchange competition again, many students' expressions turned ugly.
Those who were on par with Ximen Feng did not dare to Face Chu Qing directly.
Those who were stronger than Ximen Feng still needed to adjust their condition to prepare for the Zhou City exchange competition.
They simply had no time to fight Chu Qing.
So, things became awkward.
No one accepted Chu Qing's challenge, so how could the Fu City Martial Academy maintain its Face?
The Vice Dean looked at the group of students, extremely disappointed:
"Even if you can't win, you still have to go up and fight."
A student said with a bitter smile: "Vice Dean, we're not afraid of being beaten, and we're confident we can put on a good fight!"
"But, what if Chu Qing gets angry and beats us into the same state as Ximen Feng?"
At the mention of Ximen Feng, The Crowd shivered again.
Ximen Feng had become a living dead man.
He knelt on his bed every day, motionless.
This made the Ximen Family lose all their Face.
What was even more embarrassing was that Chu Qing had come again.
From now on, as long as Chu Qing appeared in Prefecture City, everyone would think of that—Ximen Feng, who knelt even when he went crazy.
They didn't want to become Ximen Feng.
So, they kept making excuses, and no one was willing to fight Chu Qing.
The Vice Dean had a headache: "What should we do?"
"Oh, has Zheng Xilong's opponent been found?"
"Yes, someone from the Ren Family is stepping forward to suppress Zheng Xilong."
The Vice Dean breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, there is only one Chu Qing."
Miss Ren, with her hands tucked into her sleeves, said indifferently: "I'll defeat Zheng Xilong first, and then Chu Qing next time."
The Vice Dean secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Chu Qing was also waiting.
Because the exchange competition hadn't started, he had Ximen inquire about the situation.
Not long after, Ximen returned, excitedly explaining the Fu City Martial Academy's predicament.
Madam Shi frowned: "This is not easy to handle!"
Ximen said proudly: "Yes, no one dares to fight Qing Ge!"
"Otherwise, they'll just find a cannon fodder to come up and die."
"But if they do that, they'll lose Face."
Chu Qing pondered for a moment, then, to The Crowd's surprise, suddenly jumped onto the arena.
The Crowd was astonished when they saw him go onto the arena.
The Fu City students' expressions turned even uglier.
"Oh no, he's going to force us, making us lose Face."
"Damn it, why doesn't he give us Face?"
"We're all Martial Academy students!"
"Even though he's from the countryside, he should still give us Prefecture City some Face!"
Even the Vice Dean, who quite admired Chu Qing, now looked displeased.
Is he trying to slap the Face of our Fu City Martial Academy?
At this moment, Chu Qing cupped his fists and smiled:
"Everyone, no matter who comes on stage, I must win this competition."
"For this, I am willing to pay ten thousand taels of silver."
At these words, The Crowd fell silent.
Then, there was an uproar.
Ordinary people cursed angrily: "This is blatant cheating!"
"Master Qing, you were so fierce last time, why are you so weak this time?"
"Master Qing, has someone threatened you?"
"Hey... are you not capable anymore?"
"Master Qing... why give them silver? We should use our fists to win the reward!"
The Crowd argued, in a chaotic mess.
Meanwhile, the Martial Academy students showed joyful expressions.
A student immediately rushed onto the stage, cupped his fists, and said:
"Chu Qing, I am Hou Chunlei, and I hereby request instruction!"
Chu Qing cupped his fists.
The Martial Instructor on the side quickly waved his hand and shouted loudly:
"The competition begins!"
The next second, Chu Qing and Hou Chunlei engaged in battle.
At first, Hou Chunlei was prepared for the outcome of being sent flying by Chu Qing's punch.
However, he didn't expect that as soon as they exchanged blows, he realized that Chu Qing wasn't using his full strength.
Instead, he was sparring and guiding him.
Bang! Bang! Bang!!
The two fought a dazzling and exciting battle on the arena.
One minute later, Chu Qing kicked Hou Chunlei off the arena.
The Martial Instructor on the side eagerly shouted:
[Chu Qing wins!]
"Despicable!"
"This is blatant cheating!"
On the small viewing platform, the bald Zheng Xilong's expression was ugly.
He gritted his teeth and sneered:
"Chu Qing is shameless, although I don't know why he didn't die."
"But, winning this way, the Aura he gains is like a castle in the air, crumbling at a touch."
"He must be afraid of me."
Zheng Xilong stretched his limbs and jumped onto the arena.
Miss Ren ascended the stage.
However, Zheng Xilong ignored her and looked at Chu Qing, making a throat-slitting gesture:
"Chu Qing... this time, you're finished."
"Now, you go wait for me outside the city, at most one minute, and I'll come out and kill you!"
Zheng Xilong was full of confidence this time.
After a month of tempering and the rebels' funding, in just one month, he had actually cultivated fifty Silver Bones.
At the same time, he also had a special fortuitous encounter.
Therefore, he was confident.
Chu Qing was even more confident.
He also made a throat-slitting gesture towards Zheng Xilong.
"I'll wait for you, let's go out of the city together."
Zheng Xilong grinned ferociously, turned to Miss Ren, and said: "Woman, come on, quickly let me cripple you, and then I'll go kill Chu Qing."
Miss Ren smiled.
She extended her small hands from her sleeves.
Those small hands were pure white and flawless, perfect as jade.
"I will defeat you this time, and next time I will defeat Chu Qing!"
Miss Ren, like a phantom, rushed towards Zheng Xilong.
Zheng Xilong sneered and threw a punch.
Boom!
Fist and small hand collided.
In just an instant, Zheng Xilong's expression changed slightly, and he retreated.
Boom!
A terrifying force shredded Zheng Xilong's sleeve, and even left deep, bone-visible cracks on his fist.
Chu Qing's expression changed slightly: "What a domineering palm technique!"
Miss Ren ignored Zheng Xilong beside her and looked at Chu Qing, her small mouth opening and closing: "This is a top-tier Tendons and Bones Realm Cultivation Technique—Gilded Saber; its power is immense!"
"The weak cannot withstand even one move!"
Crack!
Crack!
Zheng Xilong twisted his neck, and his entire Jingu crackled loudly.
The injured fist quickly healed.
Seeing this, Chu Qing frowned.
Miss Ren frowned even more.
Such a fast healing speed was abnormal.
The next second, Miss Ren, like a colorful butterfly, flew in front of Zheng Xilong, her hands fluttering:
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Zheng Xilong's fists and feet clashed.
Although his Flesh was cut with wounds by Miss Ren's Gilded Saber, they quickly healed.
That speed was beyond normal human levels.
Zheng Xilong's fists and feet bloomed, so fast that they continuously pushed Miss Ren back.
In less than a minute:
Bang!
Zheng Xilong took a direct hit from Miss Ren's Gilded Saber, and at the same time, punched Miss Ren in the lower abdomen.
Miss Ren spat blood and flew off the arena.
It was unclear whether it was a coincidence or Zheng Xilong's deliberate act:
The place where Miss Ren landed was exactly where Chu Qing was standing.
Whoosh!
Chu Qing leaped into the air, catching Miss Ren.
As soon as he caught her, he felt a terrifying force coming from her body.
This was... Zheng Xilong's punch force.
Boom!
The terrifying punch force, in the manner of 'hitting a bull across a mountain,' all poured onto Chu Qing's body.
Rip!
Chu Qing's upper body clothing burst, revealing his strong chest.
The Chain Spear, which should have been wrapped around his chest, was hidden in his pant leg at the last moment.
Bang!
Miss Ren softly fell into Chu Qing's strong embrace.
For a moment, she was stunned, motionless.
Ximen coughed from the side.
Chu Qing carefully set Miss Ren down; then, he walked step by step towards the arena.
Miss Ren whispered: "Be careful, his recovery ability is abnormally terrifying!"
On the arena, Zheng Xilong laughed wildly, pointing at Chu Qing: "Kid, later outside the city, I'll beat you to death."
Chu Qing smiled, leaped onto the arena, and said:
"Right here, right now, I'm going to beat you to death!"
Zheng Xilong's eyeballs constricted.
What?
Having witnessed my terrifying recovery ability, not only does he not flee or stall for time, but he actively comes to provoke me?
How dare he?
The next second, Chu Qing, amidst The Crowd's exclamations, rushed towards Zheng Xilong.
