For the next three days, Xiao Bing did not practice during the day, nor did he rest. Instead, he went out to pick herbs with Zhuo Yin.
For the current Xiao Bing, his body was recovering rapidly all the time. It was useless to rely on lying in bed to recover. As for his strength, it was definitely not something that could be improved by practicing martial arts. Xiao Bing's current martial arts had already reached a bottleneck. It was not so easy to make progress at all.
So instead of staying at home, it was better to let Zhuo Yin take him out to familiarize himself with this ghost city. Maybe there would be some gains.
For example, in the past few days of picking herbs in the wild, Xiao Bing found several kinds of herbs that could not be found in the outside world at all. They were very good for healing, but there were no gains that really surprised Xiao Bing.
Xiao Bing once asked if there were any herbs in the wild that could improve his strength. As a result, Zhuo Yin looked at Xiao Bing in surprise and told him that the herbs could only be found on the Demonic Mountain. But the Demonic Mountain was the territory of the Lord of the Devil Realm, the Devil God.
Xiao Bing's current strength had not recovered yet. He did not even dare to break out the strength of the Breaking The Void Realm. Otherwise, his body would easily be unable to bear it. Even if he encountered the top ten commanders, he might not be able to defeat them, let alone the unfathomable Devil God. So Xiao Bing gave up. After thinking about it, he would not lose his life for some herbs.
What's more, after Xiao Bing took the Divine Origin Fruit before, he did not care so much about this kind of things. It was not very useful for Xiao Bing's current level to rely on external forces. Even if Xiao Bing got this kind of rare fruit, he would definitely take it out and give it to those around him who had not taken it before. So if Xiao Bing could get it, it would naturally be the best. If he really could not get it, it was not an urgent matter.
Xiao Bing went out with Zhuo Yin these days just to familiarize himself with the Devil Realm. But Zhuo Yin did not think so. She thought that Xiao Bing deliberately found more time to accompany her, so she was very happy in her heart. She was very happy in these three days.
Three days later, the day of the martial arts competition finally arrived. In the past few years, Ghost City had never been as crazy as it was recently. In just half a month, there were already three martial arts duels, and each one was crazier than the previous one. The first one was just a duel of life and death between two ordinary people. The second one was slightly more interesting, but it was still slightly worse. Although Old Wu San stepped into the blood list, after all, he just stepped in not long ago. Everyone was not familiar with him, and they did not recognize his strength. Stepping into the 999th place, relying on luck to get rid of the person at the bottom of the ranking, it was possible.
But this time, it was different. This time, it was an expert who challenged the blood list. This expert, who was ranked 900th, was called Yan. He had been in the 900th position for two years. During this period, several people had challenged him and wanted to sit in his position, but they were all defeated by him without exception.
And this Yan could be regarded as an intermediate master in the entire ghost city. This so-called intermediate rank referred to the masters of the city, the captain, and some masters who were unwilling to join the ranks of the soldiers. There were more than 4,000 people in the ghost city, and there were at most dozens of people who were stronger than Yan.
It should be known that almost everyone in this place practiced martial arts. Even a hunter had martial arts skills. So it was very rare to be ranked in the top 100 among more than 4,000 people in a city.
On the day of the martial arts competition, Xiao Bing still did not come too early this time, but he did not expect that Yan would come later than him. Xiao Bing had heard from Zhuo Han about this person before and knew that this person was a man, but looked like a woman. Few people were willing to take the initiative to contact this person, and it was said that in the whole ghost city, there were men and women who had sex with him. So every time people mentioned him, they would have goosebumps. But Xiao Bing knew that this was actually very common in human society, the so-called bisexuality. It was estimated that the number of these devils was relatively small, so they had less contact, otherwise they would not be surprised. This was also a kind of sexual orientation problem, not a big problem.
Xiao Bing waited here for a while. Seeing that the time was almost up, he said to the captain on a high platform behind the ring, "Captain Gao, if he is late, will he admit defeat?"
This captain was the one who helped Xiao Bing issue the challenge letter that day. His name was Gao Shun, and his strength was at the middle stage of Void-breaking. Even in the human world, he could be regarded as a top master.
Gao Shun nodded and said, "Wait a little longer. It will take a while."
Of course, they also had their own way of looking at the time. After waiting for a while, it was already the agreed time in a few breaths. Zhuo Fei and his daughter were very happy, but Xiao Bing was a little disappointed. Although Xiao Bing's biggest goal was to cause a great sensation and then let Gao Fei know his whereabouts and take the initiative to find him, Xiao Bing still wanted to exercise his fists and feet after all. It might not bring too much challenge to Xiao Bing, but at least Xiao Bing could learn more about the martial arts of the devil race and make up for his shortcomings.
Unexpectedly, Yan, who was ranked 900th, did not dare to come. Could it be that she did not dare to come? Logically speaking, it should not be. Although he had a little bit of fame during this time, he might not be taken seriously by this kind of master.
Time passed little by little. Captain Gao stood up and was about to announce that the time was up. Then he heard a familiar voice that made his scalp numb and gave him goosebumps. "Oh, I'm late. I'm sorry, hahaha …"
Xiao Bing looked at Yan, only to see that this person was obviously a very fair man of 27 or 28 years old, but his manner was feminine and feminine.
Especially when he heard that soft voice, and then looked at the man's appearance, Xiao Bing could not help but have goosebumps.
Yan walked to the ring and looked at Xiao Bing affectionately. She asked, "Are you the one who wants to challenge me? What's the point of fighting and killing? Do you think I can still be ranked 900th if I want to? Even if I'm ranked 800th, I have hope to challenge all the way up. But I hate these kinds of fighting and killing the most … "
Xiao Bing swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
Yan blinked her eyes and looked at Xiao Bing affectionately. She said in a feminine voice, "What's wrong? Do you like me? I'm drooling."
Xiao Bing was furious. He rushed toward Yan and shouted, "I can't stand it anymore!"
With a bang, Yan's reaction speed was very fast. But when he wanted to retreat, his two feet had just left the ground. Xiao Bing's palms had already hit his chest heavily. With a bang, Yan flew out directly. He spat out a large mouthful of blood in the air and then fell under the ring. He struggled on the ground for a while and then gave up. He looked at Xiao Bing with some hidden bitterness in his eyes. He raised his hand and said, "I lost!"
Xiao Bing breathed a sigh of relief and shook his head helplessly. "Damn, it's not that I wanted to end the battle so quickly. It's really that I can't stand it."
Everyone was dumbfounded. Even Captain Gao, who was on the stage, was a little confused. This was done too quickly. He was directly defeated? Oh, of course, Xiao Bing didn't kill him, but he was defeated in seconds?
At this time, Captain Gao carefully looked at Xiao Bing and found that Xiao Bing's strength was actually even better than Yan's. Yan's strength was originally very good and had reached the middle stage of Gang-strength. At this moment, the strength in Xiao Bing's body was clearly at the peak of Gang-strength. It seemed that he could break through at any time. No wonder Xiao Bing could defeat Yan. No wonder Xiao Bing was so confident.
Captain Gao walked to the ring and raised Xiao Bing's arm. He announced loudly to the audience, "I announce that Tianci won this battle. After this battle, Tianci will be ranked 900th on the blood list. Because Yan lost to Tianci, he will take over Tianci's position and be ranked 999th."
Xiao Bing looked at Yan below the ring and said with a smile, "Thank you for letting me win."
Captain Gao looked at Xiao Bing and said, "I was wrong about you last time. You have hidden your strength. You are really hiding it, young man."
Xiao Bing said with a smile, "Captain Gao, you're welcome. In fact, it's not that I hid my strength. It's because I haven't recovered from my injury last time, so my strength naturally hasn't recovered. Captain Gao, you're right. At that time, I really haven't recovered to the peak of Gang-strength."
"Yes." Captain Gao nodded and said, "No wonder you don't care about the position of a warrior. If you improve a little more and break through to Breaking The Void … then you're barely qualified to be a captain."
Xiao Bing said with a smile, "I don't want the position of captain. Captain Gao, you don't have to be too polite."
Captain Gao sighed and said, "Actually, I still want to recruit you. If you follow me in the future, I can apply to the higher-ups. You will be the deputy captain of our team in the future."
Hearing Captain Gao's conditions, the eyes of those who were originally shocked by the battle turned red. Even Zhuo Han's expression changed. Then, his face was filled with excitement. He thought to himself, 'Agree, agree, not everyone can be a vice-captain!'
Thinking about it, even an ordinary warrior was very honorable in the Demon Realm, not to mention the word "captain". Even if it was the vice-captain, others would be jealous of him!
Xiao Bing said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Captain Gao, I don't have this plan for the time being."
"It doesn't matter." It seemed that the devil race respected strength. This time, Captain Gao's attitude toward Xiao Bing was completely different. His tone became extremely kind and he said with a smile, "If one day you want to, go to the Gao Mansion to find me. If you encounter trouble in the Ghost City, you can also go to the Ghost City to find me for help. I cherish talents like you very much. I think the governor will also cherish you."
Xiao Bing said with a smile, "Thank you, Captain Gao. If I'm really interested in it in the future, I will definitely go to you."
Captain Gao nodded with satisfaction and then said loudly to the people below, "Disperse, disperse. The result of this battle is out. There's no need to continue watching."
Xiao Bing said, "Captain Gao, wait a minute. I still need you to help me send another letter of challenge."
Captain Gao was dumbfounded when he heard this and asked, "Another … another letter of challenge?"
"Yes, to challenge Zhang Hangkong, who is ranked 800th."
