Dugu Xin's expression changed. "I knew you were eyeing my treasure. I won't bet if I don't have the confidence to win. Dream on."
Lu Jiangpeng smiled cunningly. "How about this, we'll bet ten moves. If Yang Qingxuan can't defeat Ji Liang in ten moves, I'll take it as my loss."
Ji Liang was enraged. His eyes were spitting fire.
Dugu Xin frowned slightly as he looked at Yang Qingxuan, who had a bitter smile on his face. After thinking for a while, he stretched out his hand and said, "Three moves. I'll take the bet in three moves."
"Haha! Alright, three moves it is! "
Lu Jiangpeng laughed and agreed. He did not give Dugu Xin any room to back out.
Dugu Xin was stunned. He felt that he had fallen into a trap.
"Arrogant!" Ji Liang shouted. "You want to defeat me in three moves? Even you, Elder Lu, might not be able to do it!"
Lu Jiangpeng looked at him coldly. "Your stupidity is comparable to Huang Yu's. But you have no right to speak here."
"You …!" Ji Liang was furious. He gritted his teeth. "Alright, alright. Don't blame me for being too heavy-handed!"
Dugu Xin did not believe it either. "If Qing Xuan can defeat Ji Liang in ten moves, I might believe it. But three moves? Haha, how is that possible?"
Lu Jiangpeng winked at Yang Qingxuan. "I'll leave the Deep Sea Jade to you. Let's start."
Yang Qingxuan smiled bitterly. He knew that Dugu Xin was going to bleed. With his strength, it would be a miracle if Ji Liang could withstand even half a move.
Dugu Xin called out, "Wait, what about your bet?"
Lu Jiangpeng spread out his hands. "Up to you. As long as I can see what you have, I'll bet on it."
Dugu Xin looked at his nonchalant expression and his heart sank. His face was even uglier than a frosted eggplant. He gritted his teeth and said, "If you lose, kowtow to me three times and come to the Spiritual Warriors College to sweep the floor and guard the gate!"
Lu Jiangpeng sneered and said, "Fine, up to you. It's just your imagination anyway. You'd better take care of your jade."
Although Dugu Xin did not believe that Yang Qingxuan could defeat Ji Liang in three moves, seeing how calm Lu Jiangpeng was, he knew that he would most likely lose. Thinking that he had fallen into the old man's trap again, he could not help but feel angry.
"Ji Liang, come here."
Dugu Xin called Ji Liang over and gave him a set of armor and a helmet. "Try your best to take three hits."
Ji Liang was furious and roared, "Master, what nonsense are you talking about! What did he mean by withstanding three moves? He was the one who took three of my moves! "
Dugu Xin frowned. "Don't underestimate your opponent. That piece of Deep Ocean Jade is extremely precious. Master doesn't want to lose."
Ji Liang thought for a moment and put on the armor and helmet. He said fiercely, "Don't worry, I'll just wait for Lu Jiangpeng to come to our college as a slave. See how I'll humiliate him then!"
Dugu Xin frowned even deeper. He felt that Ji Liang was too impulsive. It would be good if Yang Qingxuan could teach him a lesson. But he also felt sorry for his piece of jade.
Ji Liang put on the armor and helmet and his aura burst out. He said coldly, "Yang Qingxuan, you're too arrogant. It's easy for you to die prematurely. I can't deny that you have some strength, but there are too many geniuses in this world. Today, I'll teach you what it means to say that there's always someone better than you!"
Yang Qingxuan had been standing quietly and was speechless when he heard what Dugu Xin said. He said, "Let's start. We've wasted a lot of time. We still have things to discuss with Dean Dugu."
"Haha, what's there to discuss? Even Lu Jiangpeng has to stay as a slave. You can stay as well!"
Ji Liang stomped on the ground and shot out like an arrow. His Marrow Rebirth realm strength turned into ripples that pushed the air to the sides. He shouted, "Jade Emperor Fist!"
Dugu Xin watched nervously. His hands were sweating, but he quickly calmed down.
Yang Qingxuan's figure flashed and appeared in front of Ji Liang. He effortlessly dodged the punch and then lightly punched Ji Liang's chest. There was no fancy move or technique, and it directly hit Ji Liang's chest.
"Peng!"
With a huge tremor, the armor instantly shattered. Ji Liang spat out a mouthful of blood. His eyes were as big as copper bells. He was filled with disbelief and despair. But that was only for a moment. In the next moment, he lost consciousness and was sent flying. He fell heavily on the ground and fainted.
"Ah?" Dugu Xin's mouth was wide open. He was completely stunned.
"Hahahaha!"
Lu Jiangpeng laughed without restraint. Looking at Dugu Xin's stunned expression, he felt that he had never been so happy in his life. "Hahahaha, Jade, Deep Sea Jade, quickly give it to me."
Dugu Xin was completely dumbfounded.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Dean Dugu, don't worry. He just fainted. I broke three of his ribs and shattered half of his meridians."
"Gulp." Dugu Xin swallowed with difficulty. It was not difficult to knock Ji Liang out with one punch, but to do it so accurately, even he could not do it. "Your … your cultivation is …"
Yang Qingxuan said, "By chance, I broke through to the middle stage of the Blood Transformation realm and the late stage of the Sea of Reincarnation realm."
"Ah!"
Dugu Xin was shocked. After being stunned for a while, he roared, "Lu Jiangpeng, you tricked me!"
He had made some guesses about Yang Qingxuan's cultivation, but he would never have guessed that Yang Qingxuan was at the late stage of the Sea of Reincarnation realm. Looking at this gentle and refined youth, his heart was filled with intense shock.
Lu Jiangpeng winked and laughed until his stomach hurt. "Who tricked you? You were the one who suggested the limit of three moves, and I agreed so easily. How magnanimous of me. Don't talk nonsense. Quickly give me the Deep Sea Jade. "
Dugu Xin's face was ashen. He took out a piece of jade and threw it over.
"Haha." Lu Jiangpeng laughed wildly and caught the Deep Sea Jade. He even kissed it in front of Dugu Xin and waved it in his hand before putting it away.
Dugu Xin was so angry that his face was like a frosted eggplant. "Now that the competition is over, what do you want? Hurry up and say it. Then get lost. "
Only now did Lu Jiangpeng stop laughing, and he said with a serious expression, "Old Bastard, all those years ago when we found Lord Huang Ting's abode and obtained that iron box, you've seen the things within it as well. There's a small yellow flag within it, do you recognize it?"
Yang Qingxuan took out the iron box and opened it on the spot. The small yellow flag was at the top.
Dugu Xin stared at the flag for a while, then said, "It should be a defensive origin tool. Why? Is there something wrong with it?"
Yang Qingxuan said, "This item is very similar to a legendary item, but I can't be sure. I remember that when I first came to Jingyun Country, Crown Prince Du Zhengzhen seemed to recognize this flag."
"Oh?"
Dugu Xin was puzzled. He muttered to himself for a while, then said, "If Du Zhengzhen recognized it, then it might be related to his Du Clan's inheritance."
