"I don't have the manual. Take the pills first."
With that, Zhang Tianyi tossed over a transparent porcelain bottle.
Inside the porcelain bottle were more than ten pills that shone with a golden light.
"I heard that Taoists often eat their own pills and end up eating themselves to death. These aren't poisonous, right?" Chen Zhao asked suspiciously, looking at the shining metallic color of the pills.
Zhang Tianyi was so angry that he spat out blood. He pointed at Chen Zhao. "You, you … You're pissing me off … If you don't want them, give them back to me. I don't have enough for my disciples."
"You really didn't put any heavy metals in it?" Chen Zhao questioned mercilessly. "You really didn't put any heavy metals in it.
"I don't want to talk to a blind bastard like you." Zhang Tianyi turned and left angrily.
Before he left, he took Wang Hai and the others, as well as the survivors.
When Wang Hai and the others left, they felt the gaze on their backs. They all shivered.
They wished they could grow another pair of legs to escape from that gaze.
"Sect Leader, that person is really fierce." Wang Hai, who was following beside Zhang Tianyi, mumbled in a low voice.
"Fierce? What did you see just now count as? " Zhang Tianyi snorted. "Tell them to watch their mouths. Don't go around spouting nonsense or they'll get into trouble. If that bastard really wants to kill people, even I can't stop him."
"Sect Leader, that person is so fierce … If he has bad intentions …"
"Alright, don't say anything else. Don't say it again. Be careful of the words that come out of your mouth."
At their level and realm, there was no such thing as having bad intentions.
The decisions they made were the ones that were most beneficial to them.
The way they looked at things was that they were looking down from above.
Thus, they decided that most of the time, they didn't need to rely on bad intentions to obtain benefits.
They even had absolute priority in the ownership of certain things. They even had the right to occupy them.
Since ancient times, bad intentions were just an excuse to attack those who didn't agree with them.
Take the current disputes between countries for example. They were still using this excuse.
Zhang Tianyi was a smart person. Of course, he knew what his subordinate meant by this.
However, he didn't have any conflicts of interest with Chen Zhao.
After all, Chen Zhao was rooted abroad while Zhang Tianyi's interests were in the country.
The way they interacted with each other was quite natural.
He didn't want their relationship to change too much.
Don't think that the two of them didn't give each other any face.
Always scheming against each other.
In reality, this kind of scheme was harmless.
He could trust Chen Zhao, and Chen Zhao could also trust him.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have used Chen Zhao's hands to kill so many spiritualists.
Chen Zhao should have turned against him long ago.
This was also why Chen Zhao allowed his daughter to stay by his side without worry.
If there was no trust between them, it would be impossible for them to let the other party take care of their loved ones.
They hadn't gone far when a violent explosion came from behind, followed by a towering flame.
The flames almost lit up the night sky.
After half an hour, the fire truck finally arrived.
…
"West, how are Gaia, Halis, and Engelite?"
"After today's match, the three of them seem to have been enlightened. They're suddenly not nervous anymore," West said over the phone.
"Yes, are you all at the hotel?"
"Yes, Guild Leader. Are you coming over?"
"I'll send some things over. I just extorted them," Chen Zhao said.
"Then we'll wait for you at the hotel."
Chen Zhao arrived at the hotel where the Supernatural Organization team was staying.
The three of them were sparring within the barrier of the underground garage, while the others were watching from outside the barrier.
In a sparring situation, Halis was undoubtedly the weakest.
The two people she faced were opponents of two extremes.
It could be said that Gaia and Engelite were a weaker version of Chen Zhao when they were together.
Gaia had dragon blood. Her power was second only to Chen Zhao in the Supernatural Organization.
Engelite's speed was second only to Chen Zhao's in the Supernatural Organization.
Her strongest trump card was the Abyss Demon.
But she couldn't summon it so easily.
For one, summoning and maintaining it required a huge amount of magic power. Even she found it difficult.
Moreover, the Abyss Demon was powerful. It was used to deal with enemies.
It wasn't used during sparring.
Of course, Engelite and Gaia couldn't use their trump cards during sparring either.
Even so, Halis still lost first.
Engelite and Gaia were left fighting in the barrier.
However, in the following sparring session, neither Gaia nor Engelite could do anything to the other.
Basically, if they didn't use their trump cards, they wouldn't be able to decide the winner.
Even if they used their trump cards, both of them would probably be heavily injured.
Plus, it was the second match tomorrow.
So, they still had a sense of propriety when sparring.
"Come, let's split the candies. One for each." Chen Zhao took out the pills he'd extorted.
Gaia, Halis, and Engelite were obviously the first to get the pills.
They urgently needed to improve.
But improving their power wasn't something that could be done in a day.
The Refreshing Cleansing Pill wasn't a pill that could directly improve one's power.
It was equivalent to cleansing one's tendons and meridians.
It could increase one's sensitivity to the Spiritual Qi in the world.
When using magic, it could be released faster, and could also release more power.
But the improvement wouldn't be too obvious. It would just be a silent nourishment.
It couldn't be said that there was no help to them in the second match, but the improvement was very limited.
After the three of them took the elixir, the intensity of their reactions varied.
Halis's reaction was the strongest. She even showed signs of drowsiness.
She was immediately sent back to her room to rest.
Gaia and Engelite's reactions were weaker.
The next day, the second match began.
The three didn't receive any special treatment in this match.
After drawing lots, it was a real battle.
Unlike the first match, everyone had hidden their power and trump cards.
The second match was basically the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their abilities.
Whatever trump cards and moves he had, he was going to use them in this match.
Because from now on, every time they won a match, they would improve greatly. The glory they could obtain would also multiply.
So, everyone gave it their all. Some of the matches even used big moves.
Among the three, Halis was the first to enter the ring.
But what was unexpected was that Haris defeated her opponent easily like how the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves.
Chen Zhao, who was below the ring, suspected that he'd received special treatment again.
But Gaia and Engelite's match wasn't so easy.
Gaia was actually the first to be eliminated.
