Chapter 37: Attack in Secret

  Chi Yao walked towards the registration site for the martial arts competition held by Overlord to recruit a bride. After completing the registration, he stayed aside and planned to wait and see.

The requirement of the side quest is to obtain the blood crystals of the Blood River Scourge, which also means that the people of Blood Eye must start the blood sacrifice formation, otherwise where will the blood crystals come from.

For this reason, Chi Yao planned to hide himself before Xuetong opened the blood sacrifice formation, not to stand out, and try not to be noticed by Wang Xiaoming, the old scoundrel, in advance.

Chi Yao looked around and soon found the target he was looking for, a man leaning against a wooden pole with three tufts of white hair on his forehead.

The man is the leader of the Blood Eye team, Snake Eye. His familiar spirit is the four-star Feathered Serpent, and the four-star combat form is the Feathered Giant Viper (hui, the third tone).

Snake Eyes didn't play much of a role in the original novel. He was seriously injured by a single blow from Overlord. Later, he ran to preside over the magic circle of the Blood River Disaster, but his plan was finally destroyed by Wang Xiaoming and Ji Shaoqing (Lord of Shaohao Bones).

If Chi Yao wants to complete the task, or even get more blood crystals, he has to find a way to stabilize the first half of the martial arts competition and marriage proposal plot. He even needs to ensure that more people are not eliminated so that there are enough sacrifices for the final blood sacrifice formation.

"Be careful when you attack, and pay attention to the three old villains who appear in this plot." Chi Yao thought and continued to look for the target.

Target number one, Yu Daxing, is a non-mainstream guy with blond hair. His spirit is a two-star iron-eating rat, which has the ability to make metal explode.

Target number two, Wei Wen, has a gentle appearance with green hair and glasses. His spirit is a two-star embroidered insect, and his ability is to breed insect swarms.

Target number three, Wang Xiaoming, the protagonist of this world, also known as Wang Situ, his spiritual master is a two-star winged tiger, with the ability to control wind and fog.

However, Wang Situ designed a cheat for himself, the ancient Rongling Pill, which allowed him, a two-star spirit master, to directly merge with the spirit and exert the combat power of four stars. (The side effect is that the body becomes weak and vomits blood after the fusion)

Chi Yao felt that he might not be able to defeat Wang Situ. The four-star combat power was still a little difficult for him to deal with now. Moreover, there was no conflict between the two sides in the mission conditions, so there was no need to cause trouble for himself.

There is also Xiong Tienan, who uses armor to disguise himself and his spirit is the three-star Snow Rock Bear (pi with the second tone). The three-star combat power also needs attention.

After deciding on a strategy, Chi Yao calmly waited for the martial arts competition to begin. When controlling the wind element to eavesdrop, he also tried to avoid Wang Situ's vicinity, after all, his familiar spirit was of the wind element, just in case.

——Soon

, the people for the martial arts competition had gathered.

The person in charge of registration stood up and said loudly: "The venue for the martial arts competition is right here. Lord Overlord has already set up tests on the road and is waiting for you to pass them."

Under the leadership of relevant personnel, the crowd participating in the martial arts competition began to move.

The initial road is a small path on the edge of a cliff. There is a waterfall next to the cliff. The river water rushes down, splashing water all over the sky.

Wang Situ waved his fan, on which were four large characters "指点江山" (Pointing to the Rivers and Mountains), and shouted loudly, "Lord Overlord has his own reasons for asking us to hurry."

The crowd around was startled by Wang Situ's sudden voice. Chi Yao knew that this was the beginning of a plot. Wang Situ began to trick people in order to eliminate his opponent.

Wang Situ continued, "The terrain here is complicated. If there is a flying spirit, it will be able to gain the upper hand."

Wang Situ paused deliberately.

A large number of people who possessed flying spirits suddenly realized the truth and started to drive their spirits to fly into the sky.

There were also many people mocking Wang Situ, calling him a naive boy for telling others the method like that.

"Hoo—Hoo—Hoo—"

Anyone flying above a certain height from the ground would be blown away by the strong wind.

At this time, Wang Situ slowly said: "But if you choose this path, you need to be able to withstand the violent gale above this island."

Wang Situ continued, "The river here runs through the entire island. We can use the water system to make the spirit go upstream, thus avoiding the need to cross mountains and ridges."

Another group of people with water-controlling spirits immediately jumped into the water. They were chased and bitten by pike and fled back to the shore.

"But there are a huge number of one-star dogfish in the water, and they are extremely difficult to deal with." Wang Situ continued, "The cliff blocking the road is not very high. Climbing over it can save a lot of travel."

There were actually some people who did not believe in superstition and believed what Wang Situ said. They drove their spirits to climb up the cliff, but the earth and rocks collapsed and they fell directly down.

"But the soil here is all soft limestone, and only high-level earth-type spirits can pass through."

"So, Overlord wants to tell us that if we are not strong enough, the only right way is to be down-to-earth." Wang Situ waved his fan and concluded.

"Boy, you did this on purpose!" The crowd, who had been badly cheated, immediately surrounded Wang Situ and wanted to settle the score with him.

Immediately, several spirits rushed towards Wang Situ, but were blocked by Bai Jie's earth-based magic.

Wang Situ asked the winged tiger to summon a strong wind, which stirred up dust and sand and confused the crowd who were looking for trouble.

Bai Jie used her spirit to condense stone spikes and stabbed at everyone.

Chi Yao took action, implicitly controlling the fluctuations of the earth element, affecting the formation of the stone thorns, weakening their power, and successfully saving this group of mentally retarded sacrifices.

The crowd was enraged by Wang Situ's actions and was about to launch a siege.

That silly armored man, Xiong Tienan, stood up to protect his favorite girl, Bai Jie.

"Boom!" The Snow Rock Bear slammed the ground fiercely, repelling everyone. The three-star spiritual energy it emitted also shocked those rogues who tried to take advantage of the situation.

The crowd withdrew immediately, but were soon driven back by a swarm of wild one-star poisonous fire bees.

Wang Situ discovered some insects mixed in with the bee colony. These insects destroyed the hive of the poisonous fire bees and led the poisonous fire bees into the crowd.

Wang Situ discovered that some people also wanted to eliminate their opponents in advance. With so many people gathered, he should also lend a hand.

Wang Situ shouted, "Poisonous fire bees are extremely afraid of water. As long as we pass the waterfall ahead, we will be fine!"

The crowd suddenly changed direction and, led by a yellow-haired young man, rushed towards the wooden bridge across the waterfall.

The yellow-haired boy, Yu Daxing, shouted, "Everyone follow me, it will be safe after crossing the bridge!"

Wang Situ, who was walking at the end, stopped Bai Jie and Xiong Tienan and said, "The amount of metal used to reinforce the bridge is a bit too much. Be careful of traps."

When the situation developed to this point, Chi Yao realized that he needed to take action. Yu Daxing had placed a metal bomb on the bridge. Once the crowd went onto the bridge, they would be blown off the waterfall immediately.

Chi Yao was somewhat confident in defusing the metal bomb. He carefully controlled the lightning element and distributed it on the bridge, forming a precise electrostatic field that affected the properties of the metal on the bridge.

Yu Daxing, who ran to the other side of the bridge first, had already controlled the metal bomb to explode, but there was no reaction. He thought: "What's going on? Try again! Why is it still not exploding!"

The huge crowd quickly rushed across the bridge and headed towards the next destination. Many people thanked Yu Dasheng, leaving him disheveled in the wind.

After blending into the crowd and walking across the bridge, Chi Yao immediately cancelled the static electricity field to prevent anyone from noticing.

Only three old perverts were left at the bridge.

Yu Daxing tried again out of disbelief, and this time, the bridge was successfully blown away.

"My name is Wang Situ. You have great skills, why don't you come out and meet me?" Wang Situ noticed something unusual and suspected that someone was secretly preventing them from eliminating the contestants.

The other two people immediately reacted and spoke in unison.

"I am Wei Wen, please come out and move forward with me."

"I, Yu Daxing, love making friends the most. We are all brothers now. There is no need to hide."

"."

No one answered. Chi Yao had already run away with the crowd. Even if he heard the friendly calls of these three people, he would definitely not come out.
