After the bloody battle between Qiao Hongcai and Meng Tong in the Blue Cloud Pavilion Newcomer Challenge, the third round continued. This time, the challenger was Xiao Ran.
"I, Xiao Ran from the fifteenth abode of the mountain, challenge Cha Wu from the fourteenth abode of the mountain!" Xiao Ran announced in a clear voice after he walked into the ring.
As soon as he said that, there was an uproar among the newcomers. Meanwhile, Meng Jueguang and Meng Tong, who had just woken up, could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
In their eyes, Xiao Ran, as Qiao Hongcai's accomplice, had watched as Qiao Hongcai was whistled. Xiao Ran must have stood up for Qiao Hongcai. Why would he challenge a weakling like Cha Wu? It was simply inexplicable!
Compared to the others, Cha Wu's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot when he heard Xiao Ran's words. It was too horrible to look at and he almost blurted out, "F * ck."
Before this, after watching the fight between Qiao Hongcai and Meng Tong, especially after hearing Hu Yunfeng's unfair judgment, Cha Wu was actually quite happy in his heart.
Of course, he was not stupid enough to challenge Meng Tong. Although Meng Tong was now severely injured and as long as he challenged Meng Tong, it would be a piece of cake for him to gain four points. However, if he really dared to kick Meng Tong while he was down, he would definitely be doomed. He would not even know when he died.
However, although he did not plan to kick Meng Tong while he was down, Cha Wu still saw an opportunity in it. It was an opportunity for Meng Tong and Lin Yi to fight each other while he remained aloof.
Qiao Hongcai and Meng Tong were both injured. In order to stand up for Qiao Hongcai, Xiao Ran would directly challenge Meng Tong. When Meng Tong recovered, he would definitely challenge Xiao Ran and Qiao Hongcai out of consideration of face and points. This was the ideal scenario in Cha Wu's mind.
It had to be known. There were only a total of eighteen rounds in the Challenge Competition. If they kept going back and forth between the cave abodes with low rankings, it was obviously not worth it for strong rookies like Meng Tong. They had to fight to a higher ranking as soon as possible to have a chance to grab more challenge points.
Therefore, in theory, Cha Wu's ideal scenario was very likely to become a reality. However, he did not expect that Xiao Ran would give him a hard slap the moment he came up.
When Cha Wu saw Xiao Ran's refined and reserved aura of an expert that was as unmoving as a mountain, he nearly teared up.
F * ck! Can't you have some brotherly code of brotherhood? Can't you see that Qiao Hongcai has just suffered such a huge grievance? Hurry up and step on Meng Tong to avenge him. What kind of bullsh * t are you trying to do to a weakling like me?!
No matter how many profanities he cursed, Cha Wu could only reluctantly walk up to the arena. He had no choice but to accept the challenge.
"Blue Cloud Pavilion Newcomer Challenge Round 3, second match. Cave abode 15, Xiao Ran, challenges cave abode 14, Cha Wu. Begin!" The referee announced.
"Please." Xiao Ran did not change his expression and made a gesture.
Cha Wu's scalp suddenly went numb. Although he knew that he, as the bottom of the newcomers in Blue Cloud Pavilion, would definitely not be able to defeat Xiao Ran. It was more reliable and safer to admit defeat at this time. However, no matter how weak he was, he was still a Heaven Stage Great Perfection expert!
Any cultivator had strong self-esteem. Even a weakling like Cha Wu, who was trampled on by everyone, was no exception.
Judging from his previous performance, this Xiao Ran was indeed not simple. However, after all, he had never really fought to the death with anyone. Last time, he was challenged by Meng Tong and even took the initiative to admit defeat. This meant that this guy's strength might not be as strong as everyone thought. Maybe he was just pretending?
After all, this Xiao Ran was a guy from the secular world. It was natural that his foundation was not good. The probability of him being a fake was not small at all. It was impossible for every cultivator from the secular world to be as abnormal as Lin Yi, right?
If that was really the case, the status of the secular world and Heaven Stage Island would have been changed long ago. Why would this group of people go through so much trouble to come to Heaven Stage Island?
Cha Wu still had four points. If he could win today's match, not only would he not lose two points, he could even earn some points from Xiao Ran. This way, as long as he could make two Spiritual Herb seeds grow in the Spiritual Herb Trial, he would be able to protect his last shred of shame. At least, he would not fall into the negative points and would have a chance of survival.
However, if he took the initiative to admit defeat today, there would be no chance of survival. Therefore, no matter what, Cha Wu could only grit his teeth and choose to fight with Xiao Ran.
Holding on to this little bit of luck, Cha Wu finally mustered up the courage to attack after taking a deep breath.
Compared to Meng Tong, who was in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, even if Cha Wu went all out, his speed could not be said to be fast, let alone give Xiao Ran any pressure. Xiao Ran did not even use the Shadowstep. He simply moved horizontally and directly avoided his opponent's attack.
Then, while his opponent was not able to react, Xiao Ran stretched out his arm and grabbed the back of his opponent's collar. With a little force, Cha Wu's body suddenly flew into the air. When he landed again, he was already outside the ring.
According to the rules of the challenge, whoever fell out of the ring, regardless of whether they were injured or not, would lose.
"This … this is over?" Everyone was instantly dumbfounded. Wasn't it over too quickly?
It was true that Cha Wu was a weakling. The last time he took the initiative to challenge Lin Yi, he was cleanly defeated in a second. However, his opponent was, after all, Lin Yi, the number one newcomer who had always been domineering. Everyone was already mentally prepared for this, so it was not strange for such a situation to occur. However, this time, it was just Xiao Ran, who had never displayed a strong performance!
In just one face-to-face confrontation, he even used the most basic of martial arts techniques. The people below the ring could not even see through Xiao Ran's current strength. In the end, Cha Wu could not even let out a fart and was inexplicably thrown off the ring. A weakling was indeed a f * cking weakling. He could not do anything at all!
"Xiao Ran from the 15th cave at the foot of the mountain challenges Cha Wu from the 14th cave at the foot of the mountain. Xiao Ran wins!" The judge announced decisively.
"Thank you for letting me win." Xiao Ran cupped his hands at Cha Wu, who was below the ring. Then, he calmly walked off the ring.
Damn! How did I get down? Until Xiao Ran left the ring, Cha Wu still had not reacted. How the f * ck did I get down?
