"Duan Lingtian, what do you think?"
Captain Yang Da looked at Duan Lingtian and sought Duan Lingtian's opinion.
After all, this bet was started by Duan Lingtian.
"Duan Lingtian, don't say you don't dare now."
Yu Xiang's eyes narrowed as he cut off Duan Lingtian's path of retreat.
"Captain, I have no objections. Just as Yu Xiang said, please be our witness."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
The corners of his mouth held a smile.
This Yu Xiang was really considerate ….
Yu Xiang's pupils constricted. He didn't expect Duan Lingtian to agree so readily.
"Duan Lingtian, you wouldn't have secretly hidden a match, right? If that's the case, then this bet has no meaning. "
Yu Xiang looked at Duan Lingtian with a vigilant expression.
"Don't worry, if I use a match, then it's my loss."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
A match?
Did he need it?
Yu Xiang heaved a sigh of relief. "You said it yourself."
"If you have no objections …. This bet will take effect."
Yang Da looked at Duan Lingtian and Yu Xiang.
Both of them shook their heads, indicating that they had no objections.
"Let's begin."
Yang Da looked at Duan Lingtian with interest.
The five Centurions behind him also stared at Duan Lingtian with burning gazes. They were all curious as to where Duan Lingtian got his confidence from ….
Even if it was them, if they didn't have a match, they wouldn't dare say that they could start a fire out of thin air.
"Today, I'll teach everyone a common knowledge."
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian picked out a round piece of dry firewood from a pile of dry firewood and sat down on the spot.
At this moment, the group of youths from the Genius Barracks surrounded them, and they stared fixedly at Duan Lingtian's movements …
"Meng Quan, give me your dagger."
Duan Lingtian looked at Meng Quan and smiled.
Meng Quan handed over the dagger.
After receiving Meng Quan's dagger, Duan Lingtian raised his hand and chopped off one end of the firewood. Then, he deliberately sharpened it …
At the same time, he dug a small hole in the round firewood.
Whoosh!
The broken pieces of wood fell into Duan Lingtian's hand. Following the release of elemental energy from his hand, they turned into sawdust and fell into the small hole in the firewood.
Then, he inserted the sharp wood he had prepared into the small hole.
It began to spin …
If there were people from Duan Lingtian's previous life on Earth, they would definitely recognize him at a glance.
What Duan Lingtian was doing now was precisely 'drilling wood to make fire'!
"Chi! Wishful thinking, do you really think you can make fire like this? "
Yu Xiang sneered.
But very quickly, he was dumbfounded.
Chi!
Duan Lingtian drilled for a while, and the sawdust began to emit smoke. After a short moment, a small flame rose up …
"Meng Quan, firewood!"
Duan Lingtian shouted in a low voice.
"Coming!"
Long before the sawdust emitted smoke, Meng Quan had already gone to prepare firewood. When he heard Duan Lingtian calling him, he promptly placed a pile of firewood in front of Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian placed the burning sawdust into the pile of firewood …
Instantly, a raging fire began to burn!
"No … Impossible … Impossible."
Yu Xiang looked at this scene in disbelief and retreated a few steps. He shook his head in a daze, not daring to believe that all this was real.
At this moment, a trace of pity appeared in the gazes of the surrounding youths when they looked at Yu Xiang …
This Yu Xiang had gone too far!
The expressions of Yu Xiao and the other three youths of the Yu Family were very ugly.
Yu Xiang losing face also represented that the Yu Family had lost face, and they had lost face.
"Duan Lingtian, how did you think of this?"
Yang Da looked deeply at Duan Lingtian and asked.
"When I was young, I accidentally played with it … I call it 'drilling wood to make fire', what does Chiliarch think?"
Duan Lingtian rubbed his nose.
"Good … Very good!"
Yang Da laughed.
"Yu Xiang, since you found the Chiliarch as a witness, I believe you will definitely abide by the bet, right?"
Duan Lingtian looked at Yu Xiang and laughed mockingly.
Yu Xiang's expression became even uglier.
Very quickly, he looked at the two centurions behind Yang Da for help.
"Chiliarch, Yu Xiang is after all a disciple of the Yu Family of the prefecture capital. If he is humiliated like this, the Yu Family will undoubtedly be humiliated as well … At that time, I'm afraid it won't be easy to clean up the mess."
One of the centurions stood out.
"That's right, Chiliarch, just treat this as a joke and laugh it off."
Another centurion stood out.
Yang Da frowned.
Yu Family …
He couldn't help but worry.
But, this bet was witnessed by so many people. As the notary, if he were to give up just like this, his prestige would definitely be damaged …
If news of this spread out, it would be difficult for him to have a foothold in the Iron Blood Army!
"Hahahaha …"
A burst of loud laughter suddenly spread out.
"Presumptuous!"
The centurion who stood out first to support Yu Xiang had a change in expression and stared angrily at Duan Lingtian. "In front of the Chiliarch, how can you be presumptuous!"
"Sir Centurion."
Duan Lingtian's eyes narrowed slightly and the corners of his mouth held a smile. "Not only is the Chiliarch a witness to the bet between me and Yu Xiang, everyone present is a witness … When the bet was just set, I wonder why you didn't stop it? Could it be that at that time, you didn't think of the Yu Family? "
"Or … Now that I've won and Yu Xiang has lost, it's out of your expectations. So, you used the Yu Family to suppress the Chiliarch? "
As he finished speaking, Duan Lingtian's eyes flickered with a wisp of a sinister brilliance. "Could it be that you think that the Chiliarch is afraid of the Yu Family and must lower his head in front of the Yu Family?"
After hearing Duan Lingtian's words, that centurion's expression changed greatly.
After glaring at Duan Lingtian with resentment, he looked at Yang Da with a terrified expression. "Chiliarch, I've never thought of it this way. I really didn't mean it this way."
The other centurion tactfully shut his mouth when faced with such a situation.
Although he was a good friend of Yu Xiang's older brother, Yu Hong, he didn't dare offend his superior.
"This bet is obvious to everyone present. I hope the Chiliarch can handle it fairly!"
Xiao Yu spoke at the right time to help Duan Lingtian.
"I hope the Chiliarch can handle it fairly!"
Instantly, many of the youths in the various squads voiced their support.
Yu Xiang's expression became more and more unsightly.
His gaze swept past all these youths.
More than half of these youths had borrowed fire from him, but he never imagined that these people were actually fence-sitters and were so realistic …
He was so angry that his vital energy and blood roiled!
"Alright, since I'm a witness to this bet, I naturally won't be biased towards any side … Yu Xiang, fulfill the bet."
Yang Da looked at Yu Xiang as he spoke indifferently.
Although he had some misgivings about the County City's Yu Family, he wasn't afraid.
Not to mention that the Iron Blood Army was far away, even if the Yu Family's Patriarch personally came to Iron Blood City, the Patriarch wouldn't be able to do anything to him.
He was a member of the Iron Blood Army.
The Iron Blood Army was famous for being protective of their own. Even the people of the County Governor's Estate didn't dare rashly offend the Iron Blood Army.
Yu Xiang took a deep breath, his eyes filled with humiliation, and his body unconsciously started to tremble …
Under numerous burning gazes, Yu Xiang started to take off the clothes on his body, piece by piece …
Duan Lingtian, Xiao Yu, Meng Quan, and Lo Cheng had already returned to the place they were at earlier and started to roast the wild wolves and boars …
As they roasted, they watched Yu Xiang's' performance. '
"Haha! I couldn't tell that this Yu Xiang is fairer than a girl. "
Meng Quan looked at Yu Xiang who was running and laughed loudly.
"There's even a birthmark on your butt."
Duan Lingtian laughed.
Now, not only Duan Lingtian and the others, even the other youths were watching Yu Xiang's' performance 'without blinking, deeply afraid that they would miss any exciting scene.
Every time Yu Xiang took a step forward, the wind would blow past his naked body. His face would turn gloomier and gloomier...
His pair of eyes even revealed dense hatred and killing intent!
Duan Lingtian!
If I don't kill you, I swear I'm not human!
"Ah!!"
Yu Xiang ran halfway and suddenly roared.
Hu!
His feet moved, and he executed his movement technique, quickly finishing the remaining few laps.
"Xiang Ge."
Yu Xiao passed the clothes over in a timely manner.
Yu Xiang took a deep breath, put on the clothes, and sat at a corner, ashamed to face anyone.
"Haha … Satisfying!"
Meng Quan laughed.
Xiao Yu laughed as well.
Lo Cheng's eyes flickered, and a smile appeared on the corners of his mouth …
He noticed that a trace of delight had actually arisen within his heart, and it was something he didn't expect.
"Enough, quickly eat the meat, don't burn it!"
Duan Lingtian laughed.
At this moment, the other youths in the Genius Camp, besides the few people from the Yu Clan, were all whispering in low voices.
The topic they were discussing was precisely Yu Xiang, who had just run ten laps without a trace of clothing.
The group of youths from Squad Three were currently beaming with joy.
"That Yu Xiang said he wouldn't lend a fire to Squad Three … Hmph! Why would we need to borrow a fire? With Duan Lingtian's method of making fire by drilling wood, even if we don't have a match, we can still easily start a fire. "
"Yeah! Duan Lingtian is too formidable, to be able to create such a method. "
"I really don't dare believe it, Duan Lingtian is only 16 … When I was his age, I hadn't even stepped into the Core Formation Stage, let alone being so multi-talented like him."
"That Yu Xiang probably won't have the face to see anyone in the future …"
"Speaking of which, that 'bird' of his looks really small, I wonder if it'll be of any use."
"Shh! Be quiet, he's a member of the County City's Yu Clan after all, be careful of being targeted by him, and you'll be out of luck. " “
Let's be quiet … Actually, I also feel that his' bird 'is very small, like a bamboo stick. "
…
At this moment, the youths of Squad Three weren't stingy with their praises for Duan Lingtian, and at the same time, they were fiercely trampling on Yu Xiang.
As if they'd completely forgotten.
Earlier, they were extremely dissatisfied with Duan Lingtian, and even wanted to put down their dignity to borrow a fire from Yu Xiang.
In the distance.
Captain Yang Da gnawed on the roasted meat, and his gaze never left Duan Lingtian …
As far as he was concerned, this youth was truly too miraculous.
To be able to think of such a method to start a fire, he was absolutely a genius amongst geniuses!
Amongst the five Centurions, the astonished expression on the face of Squad Three's instructor, Fan Jian, still hadn't faded.
He completely understood now.
So it turned out that the reason Duan Lingtian leisurely walked towards the Dawnshroud Mountain Range today and didn't fight for the fire starter was because he'd long since made preparations …
He didn't need a fire starter at all to start a fire!
He deeply felt how terrifying this youth was.
Of the remaining four centurions, two of them acted as if this matter had nothing to do with them and were unconcerned.
The last two looked at each other and laughed helplessly.
They were all friends of Yu Xiang's older brother, Yu Hong, and felt slightly guilty for not being able to help Yu Xiang this time.
