Hua Pengju had always been waiting for an opportunity for revenge.
If not for Tu Dahei, the days of him and Song Xiao lording it over Team Red would not have gone forever. He would also not have to struggle desperately on the brink of elimination!
Hence, when Yama Minamiya announced the rules of the free-for-all, Hua Pengju had gathered the remaining four members of Song Xiao's faction. They were all in the same boat, and now, they were comrades that shared a common enemy, Tu Dahei!
Hence, their actions were very direct and crude. There was only one word, fight!
Their thoughts were similarly very simple. Even if the combined strength of the five of them could not take down Tu Dahei, they had to hold Tu Dahei back. Since it was impossible for them to obtain the only spot, they did not care if their actions exposed themselves to everyone.
If they could vent the anger in their hearts, so what if they harmed others and themselves?
However, Hua Pengju never expected, never even in his dreams, that Tu Dahei would be so weak!
After Hua Pengju struck Shi Xiaobai's chest, he did not hesitate to strike out once again. Having been in the underworld for years, he had a ruthlessness that typical hooligans did not have. Even though Shi Xiaobai had spat out a mouthful of blood, it did not make him show any mercy!
Hua Pengju's intentions were very cold. He wanted to kill him while he was down!
The eyes of the other four remnants struggled slightly. Reason told them that Tu Dahei had likely been severely injured by the five of them. If they were to continue beating him, Tu Dahei would likely be crippled after the beating was over, although it was unlikely to kill him.
Was this really the right thing to do?
The four looked each other in the eye as a sneer suffused across their lips. Immediately, they attacked Shi Xiaobai once again. Since they were in cahoots with Hua Pengju, how could they have any conscience left? Going easy on him was the only benevolence they had.
Hence, in the middle of the field, a scene that made everyone draw a gasp happened in front of everyone's eyes.
Hua Pengju and company were like punching sandbags as they mercilessly attacked Shi Xiaobai. Shi Xiaobai was like a tiny boat in a raging sea, enduring wave after wave of attacks. He was powerless to resist the five's punches and kicks!
This scene happened in a few seconds. By the time everyone reacted, Hua Pengju and company's fists and feet had landed on Shi Xiaobai's body several times.
Upon seeing this scene, Ye Jiaquan's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He roared angrily at the Blue Team members that had been pestering him from the beginning, "Scram". Just as he was about to rush over to help Shi Xiaobai, a few Blue Team members blocked his path with deadpan expressions once again.
When Xiang Wu saw this scene, he snorted coldly and was about to intervene. However, when he turned around, he found that Wang Lin was standing in front of him. Xiang Wu's eyes turned cold and he slowly raised his hand.
Seeing this scene, Lizi's face turned pale. Without any hesitation, she lifted her feet and was about to walk into the playground. She wanted to stop this one-sided abuse.
Riko was feeling remorseful. No matter how much of a genius Shi Xiaobai was, it was already a miracle that he could cultivate to the fourth level of the Psionic Mortal Realm in twenty days. It was obvious that he did not have a good grasp of his combat skills, but she had encouraged Shi Xiaobai to participate in such a cruel free-for-all without fully understanding him. She had harmed Shi Xiaobai.
"Wait."
A hand grabbed Lizi's arm.
"Father!?"
Riko turned her head to look at Yama Minamiya, who was holding her back. Her eyes revealed a hint of anxiety. Could it be that her father did not permit her to interrupt the selection?
Riko clenched her teeth slightly. She, who rarely disobeyed her family, could not back down this time. Even if she disappointed her father, she had to stop Hua Pengju.
Riko used all her strength to break free from Yama Minamiya's grasp.
Yama Minamiya suddenly said with a serious expression, "Look carefully at that child's expression."
Only then did Riko realize that her father, who was always serious in speech and manner, had a hint of amused smile in his eyes.
Riko immediately turned her head to look at Shi Xiaobai. Her eyes focused slightly as she saw Shi Xiaobai's shaky body that made it difficult to see his face while Hua Pengju and company were punching and kicking him.
That face, of course, was pale, but …
Riko's pupils suddenly constricted violently.
"He's smiling!?"
Riko exclaimed. At this moment, Shi Xiaobai's lips were suffused with an undisguised smile. He was still able to smile while being severely injured by five people?
At the same time, Riko discovered another shocking matter!
Shi Xiaobai did not let out a scream from the beginning to the end. No, not only that. On a careful look, Shi Xiaobai's exposed skin did not even have a single bruise after suffering the psionic attacks!
What … What was going on!?
.....
.....
Shi Xiaobai wanted to laugh. If not for the sudden appearance of the Absolute Choice that made him worry for Chen Lingcun's safety, he would definitely have laughed out loud without any restraint.
While enduring the punches and kicks from Hua Pengju and company, Shi Xiaobai felt so comfortable that he wanted to moan twice. Every muscle in his body was trembling in bliss, and his heart was brimming with joy and satisfaction.
Yes, don't misunderstand. Shi Xiaobai was not a masochist, nor was he a masochist. He was just addicted to becoming stronger and could not extricate himself.
Eh? You are asking why being beaten can make one stronger?
Heh, you are really out of it!
Speaking of this matter, one had to mention the B-level reward given by the Absolute Choice when Shi Xiaobai cultivated his Crab Steps to the "Dominating Refinement" — Filthy Turtle Divine Technique!
This Filthy Turtle Divine Technique was a divine technique that lived up to its name!
This divine technique consisted of three parts. The first part was a body-tempering cultivation technique — "This Turtle Is Hardest".
"This Turtle Is Hardest" was the same as traditional body-tempering cultivation techniques. Its final goal was to increase the cultivator's physical defense through cultivation. It was to increase the four major defenses of the skin, flesh and blood, tendons and psyche.
Every Psionite had to choose a body-tempering cultivation technique that was most suitable for them to increase their physical defense.
"This Turtle Is Hardest" was the most ordinary body-tempering cultivation technique.
However, the cultivation method of "This Turtle Is Hardest" was extremely special. It was completely different from those coquettish wretches out there.
In normal body-tempering cultivation techniques, some would use specific actions or training methods to constantly break through the limits of the body, improving one's physique.
Some body-tempering cultivation techniques used Psionic Power to cleanse the body, transforming the body over time.
There were also some crazy body-tempering cultivation techniques that used the power of nature to temper the body.
For example, fire tempering one's body through Rising From The Ashes, lightning tempering one's body through Lightning Tribulations, water tempering one's body, wind tempering one's body, ice tempering one's body, etc. They used the power of nature to temper the body's attributes, thereby increasing the body's defense and resistance.
The above were the most common body-tempering cultivation techniques. As for "This Turtle Is Hardest", it did not belong to any of the above.
The body-tempering method of "This Turtle Is Hardest" was actually very complicated, but it could be summarized into two words — getting beaten up! (To be continued.)
