Chapter 16. Tang Feng: Xiao Chen, I Finally Found Your Weakness
"Senior Brother Tang, why did you ask me to come here late at night? What's the matter?"
A burly and tall figure asked.
The other person was naturally Tang Feng. He said unhurriedly, "Shi Qiang, you will meet Xiao Chen tomorrow. How sure are you of defeating him?"
"I don't have the slightest bit of confidence. Senior Brother Xiao Chen has already comprehended seven-tenths of the sword will. I have no power to fight back at all."
Shi Qiang had a feeling of powerlessness when he thought of the opponent he would meet tomorrow.
He could rank in the top five in the Physical Cultivation Courtyard. Logically speaking, with his strength, there would be no problem entering the top one hundred.
"What if you have this item?"
Tang Feng took out something from the storage bag and placed it in front of Shi Qiang.
"This... Senior Brother Tang is willing to give it to me!"
Shi Qiang didn't expect that Tang Feng would take out such a good thing, and he was immediately at a loss for words.
"Does this young master ask you with this baby, do you have a chance to defeat Xiao Chen?"
Tang Feng's tone still didn't change at all.
"Naturally, the reason why Xiao Chen is strong is that he has comprehended seven-tenths of the sword will. The vast majority of the outer disciples can't even block his one sword, let alone fight back."
Shi Qiang became more and more excited as he spoke. Of course, he didn't want to be Xiao Chen's stepping stone.
"But I'm different. I'm a physical cultivator myself. If I have this baby's blessing, Xiao Chen is just an ordinary cultivator at the second layer of the Dao Foundation in front of me."
"Good!"
Tang Feng got his guarantee, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but slightly raise.
"Then this young master will give it to you."
Shi Qiang wasn't a fool and quickly said, "Shi Qiang is willing to follow Senior Brother Tang in the future. On the arena tomorrow, I will cripple Xiao Chen again and let him roll out of the Asking Dao Academy in disgrace."
Tang Feng patted him on the shoulder: "This young master likes to deal with smart people like you. Tomorrow I'll be waiting for your good news."
"Shi Qiang will definitely not disappoint Senior Brother." Shi Qiang said as he held the treasure in his hand.
After the two exchanged pleasantries, Shi Qiang disappeared into the darkness.
After Shi Qiang walked far away, another figure came out of the darkness.
"Can this big guy, Senior Brother Tang, really defeat Xiao Chen? Looking at his appearance, he gives people a silly look."
Tang Feng smiled and said, "Although this Shi Qiang's comprehension is average, he is one of the few people who can awaken the acquired body at the Dao Foundation Realm, and his Barbarian Bull Body is thick-skinned and has extremely strong defense.
Even if he can't beat that guy Xiao Chen, he can also provide us with ideas to defeat him."
"Senior Brother is brilliant."
"Humph."
Tang Feng snorted lightly: "Tomorrow let's watch this good show."
————
Early the next morning.
The square was already filled with quite a few disciples. Today, the top one hundred strong in the outer courtyard will be determined.
Almost all of the top one hundred strong are the inner disciples who have been predetermined. Even if they can't enter the inner courtyard this time, within the stipulated years, there is no pressure at all to enter the inner courtyard unless there is an accidental fall.
The study years in the outer courtyard of the Asking Dao Academy are ten years.
If one cannot break through the True Destiny Realm and enter the inner courtyard within ten years, then one will be expelled from the academy.
Among the thousands of people in the outer courtyard, only one-third of them can enter the inner courtyard within ten years.
After entering the inner courtyard, there will also be ten years of study time. By passing the assessment to become a core disciple, one can continue to cultivate in the academy.
If one fails to pass the assessment, there are also two choices. One is to leave the Asking Dao Academy automatically, and the other is to join the Foreign Affairs Courtyard and complete various tasks to exchange for cultivation resources with merit.
However, for the outer disciples, the big competition once every three years is of paramount importance.
Even if one can't break into the top ten, one must also break into the top one hundred to strive for more cultivation resources.
Chu Feng and Xiao Chen, the master and apprentice, slowly came to the square.
Chu Feng didn't remind Xiao Chen too much and walked straight towards the high platform.
Coming here to watch the big competition every day is quite a comfortable life.
Soon, the heads of various courtyards also came one after another.
The person sitting beside Chu Feng was still the Pill King of Mysterious Fire.
"Senior in the morning."
"Little Feng in the morning."
After getting along for several days, the relationship between the two couldn't be said to be good, nor could it be said to be bad. It could be regarded as an acquaintance.
After all, the cultivation gap between the two is too great, and it is impossible to have a deep friendship.
As the referee took his place, the big competition also began.
"Please invite the two combatants on the next round of the ninth arena to come on stage."
Xiao Chen directly jumped onto the arena without saying a word.
On the other side, Shi Qiang walked up to the arena step by step slowly. His walking speed wasn't fast, but every step he took would make a series of thumping sounds, giving people a feeling that every step weighed a thousand catties.
Chu Feng looked at the big black guy on the arena and slowly took a sip of tea, thinking in his heart: Xiao Chen has finally met a decent opponent. I don't know how many swords the big guy can block from Xiao Chen.
"Please, Senior Brother Xiao."
"Please, Junior Brother Shi."
The two didn't have too much interaction on weekdays, so before making a move, they just politely greeted each other symbolically.
"Begin!"
As the referee's voice fell.
Xiao Chen directly drew his long sword without saying a word and swung it casually.
Clang!
A sword light fell at a speed faster than the eye could see.
Everyone present had seen this scene many times, but every time they had lingering fears about this sword.
Just as the sword light was about to fall on Shi Qiang, a golden protective cover suddenly appeared around him, enveloping him completely.
Bang!
The sword landed on the protective cover, only causing a few cracks and causing no harm to Shi Qiang at all.
When the crowd saw this scene, they subconsciously exclaimed in surprise.
"Top-quality Vajra Talisman!"
"I didn't expect Senior Brother Shi to have such a treasure, but he's too wasteful."
"How can this be called waste? Winning this match can enter the top 100, and the cultivation resources obtained are not comparable to a top-quality Vajra Talisman."
While the crowd was exclaiming, Shi Qiang suddenly swung a punch in the direction of Xiao Chen.
"Wild Bull Fist!"
That punch was like dozens of wild bulls charging together, giving people an unstoppable feeling.
The fist wind arrived before the fist!
Under the arena, Tang Feng saw this scene and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, thinking to himself: Xiao Chen, I finally found your weakness.
Not far away, Liu Yue'er bit her lip tightly, and her heart was already in her throat. Senior Brother, you must be careful!
The group of heads on the high platform also brightened their eyes. None of them expected that this big, seemingly silly guy would have some brains.
Protecting oneself with a top-quality Vajra Talisman is indeed the most suitable way to fight against Xiao Chen's sword will at the same level.
The Pill King of Mysterious Fire then turned his gaze to Chu Feng on the side, wanting to see what expression this guy would have at this moment.
To the surprise of the Pill King of Mysterious Fire, Chu Feng's expression was indifferent, not worried at all that his disciple would lose this battle.
Could it be that Xiao Chen also has a hole card?
On the arena, Xiao Chen saw that his attack missed, and his eyes were still as calm as water, without the slightest hesitation in his heart.
He swung a sword in response to Shi Qiang's punch with great gratitude.
