229: Restart the game

After this incident, the entire competition could no longer continue.

Coupled with the matters of the Void Spawn, all countries were undergoing internal purges.

Now, even if they wanted to hold the competition, there would be no one to participate.

The entire Professional Competition was temporarily canceled, and Xia Qi was commended by War God Hu Jun for his outstanding performance.

"Hahaha, your performance this time was excellent."

"The higher-ups specifically sent me to commend you. Tell me, what do you want from them?"

"But let me tell you in advance, don't be too greedy this time."

"Although you've made a significant contribution this time, don't take others for fools."

Hearing General Hu's words, Xia Qi recalled what had happened before.

Last time, he got a hundred bottles of Talent Potion from General Hu, so this time it definitely couldn't be less.

"Then how about a small five hundred bottles!"

Last time he asked for a thousand bottles and didn't get them.

This time, asking for five hundred bottles, Xia Qi felt it was reasonable.

General Hu nearly spat blood after hearing him.

This kid really didn't treat other people's money as money, opening his mouth and asking for five hundred bottles.

"Five hundred bottles, you kid really dare to be so greedy!" General Hu's eyes widened, looking extremely annoyed.

Xia Qi chuckled and said, "War God Hu Jun, I'm doing this for the country, after all, the Professional Competition isn't over yet, and we need Talent Potion to improve our strength. I'm also thinking about the country's honor."

"Furthermore, I've bled for Dragon Country, and I've risked my life for Dragon Country."

"Asking for five hundred bottles isn't too much, is it?"

General Hu rolled his eyes and said, "You kid, you're really glib-tongued. However, five hundred bottles of Talent Potion is no small sum, I'll have to report it to the higher-ups."

Xia Qi nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble War God Hu Jun."

General Hu sighed and said, "You kid, you really make people worry. However, your performance this time was indeed outstanding, the higher-ups should agree."

"I can't guarantee five hundred bottles, but I can guarantee more than a hundred bottles."

Afterward, War God Hu Jun left.

Things here had come to an end, and Xia Qi also had to go back.

The three girls had already been evacuated under General Hu's arrangement, and after the crisis was resolved, everyone returned to their residences.

The three girls were no exception. When Xia Qi arrived at the door, he saw the three of them.

When they saw Xia Qi, they all became excited.

Yun Qingyue ran towards Xia Qi and immediately checked if Xia Qi had any injuries.

At that time, they had only seen Xia Qi begin fighting the Void Experimental Products and had no idea about Xia Qi's situation.

After that, they were evacuated.

They had even less idea of what had happened in the arena.

"Xia Qi, are you alright!"

Yu Qiu and Luo Zisheng also came forward, standing behind Yun Qingyue.

Looking at the three girls' concerned eyes, Xia Qi waved his hand.

"I'm fine, everything's resolved, and the competition has been suspended."

"It probably won't continue for a while, let's go back first!"

The four of them returned to the residence together, and Xia Qi took a good bath.

Afterward, Yun Qingyue took Xia Qi's clothes to wash.

Yu Qiu went to cook for Xia Qi, while Luo Zisheng stayed in her room.

Xia Qi, on the other hand, returned to his room and began to Cultivate.

He knew that although his strength was good, there was still a big gap between him and a true powerhouse.

Moreover, he also understood that there were many unknown things in this world waiting for him to explore.

Therefore, he had to Cultivate even harder and improve his strength.

Xia Qi closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing, making his mind calmer.

He constantly felt the power within his body, trying to guide it into a more condensed state.

Time quietly passed, and a strange Qi began to emanate around Xia Qi's body.

This Qi seemed to possess magic, making people involuntarily want to approach it.

And Xia Qi himself was completely immersed in a state of Epiphany, as if he was isolated from the entire world.

Until, a knock on the door broke the tranquility.

"Xia Qi, dinner's ready, come out and eat!"

It was Yu Qiu's voice.

Xia Qi slowly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them.

He stood up, walked to the door, and opened it.

"Mm, okay."

Xia Qi responded and followed Yu Qiu out of the room.

At the dinner table, the three girls all looked at Xia Qi, their eyes full of concern.

"Xia Qi, are you alright now?"

Yun Qingyue asked.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

"If you're still worried, we can go for a check-up too."

Xia Qi smiled and began to savor the delicious food Yu Qiu had made.

The meal was very warm.

After eating, Xia Qi returned to his room and continued to Cultivate.

He knew that he couldn't stop and had to work even harder.

And the three girls didn't disturb Xia Qi; they knew Xia Qi needed time to recover and Cultivate.

In the following days, Xia Qi was constantly immersed in Cultivation.

His strength was also continuously improving, which made him very satisfied.

And the three girls were also busy with their own affairs; they were also working hard to improve their strength.

Although Xia Qi was already very strong, they didn't want to become a burden to Xia Qi.

In the next few days, Xia Qi stayed at his residence.

Although his Rank had not seen a Breakthrough, Xia Qi's combat skills were already stronger than before.

For now, he had no intention of a second transfer. A second transfer was too crucial for him.

If it were an ordinary second-transfer profession, he wouldn't even consider it.

It wouldn't help him much.

In the Professional Competition, he also understood more clearly how much a good profession could improve him.

And good news came from War God Hu Jun's side.

The higher-ups agreed to Xia Qi's request and gave him two hundred bottles of Talent Potion.

Xia Qi was overjoyed after receiving these Talent Potions.

He knew that these Talent Potions would be a huge help to him.

So, he began to Cultivate even harder.

Dragon Country has always vigorously cultivated professionals like Xia Qi; the country needs an infusion of fresh blood.

To Cultivate a powerful professional, too much must be sacrificed.

Xia Qi also needed to quickly find a suitable second-transfer profession to improve his strength.

After all, in this world full of unknowns and dangers, strength is the ultimate truth.

Only by possessing enough strength can one protect oneself and one's family, and only then can one make greater contributions to the country.

As soon as he received the two hundred bottles of Talent Potion, Xia Qi immediately drank them.

Days passed, and Xia Qi's strength continued to improve.

Time quietly flowed by like this, until one day, Xia Qi suddenly received a notification from General Hu.

"Xia Qi, the competition has restarted, are you ready?"

General Hu's voice sounded through the communicator.

"Mm, I'm ready."

Xia Qi replied.
