Chapter 2564: Cras.h.i.+ng the Party
Soon after, the servant brought two people inside. The person in front was filled with a haughty aura, and it was as if he wanted to make sure that everyone knew that he was a second-generation young master. In fact, he seemed just shy of writing “I am super impressive” on his face.
The other person kept a much lower profile. His eyes were downcast and solemn, and he looked much like a puppet. When the person in front of him took a step, he would take a step too. Their footsteps were completely in sync.
They were both Celestial Kings, with one having two ribbons of iridescent light, and one having three ribbons of iridescent light.
“Lu Li!” Tang Yuan said as he saw the haughty person. He wanted to control his emotions and appear as if he had a grasp of the situation, yet he couldn’t help but reveal his resentment.
This was because he had suffered a brutal defeat the previous time they had clashed heads. Not only had his Blood Martial King failed to reach 100 victories, but he had even been killed on the spot. This had caused him to lose an exorbitant amount of money. As a result, he detested Lu Li to the core.
!!
“Tang Yuan!” Lu Li said with a chuckle. Because he had gained the upper hand in the previous clash, he naturally felt a sense of superiority. He looked at Ling Han, and said, “This is the new person you invited? He’s called Li Long?”
“And what about it?” Tang Yuan retorted.
Lu Li ignored Tang Yuan. Instead, he looked at Ling Han, and said, “Become my follower, Li Long!” He immediately started to poach the underling of Tang Yuan, continuing, “If you stay with someone like Tang Yuan, you’ll only be covering your own l.u.s.ter. Moreover, do you know how your predecessor died?
“He was killed by my Blood Martial King!” he said in a menacing voice.
According to usual practice, one would rest for a month or so after each battle. After all, it was inevitable that one would be wounded during merciless life-and-death battles. In fact, it wouldn’t be strange for compet.i.tors to rest for half a year.
However, Ling Han’s first victory had been far too flawless. He hadn’t suffered any wounds, nor had he lost any vitality. Add to that Tang Yuan’s pent-up anger, and it was only natural that he wanted Ling Han to become a Blood Martial King as soon as possible. Only then could he challenge Lu Li’s Blood Martial King.
Ling Han’s next opponent was a veteran of the tournament. He had partic.i.p.ated in over 1000 battles, though his greatest win streak was only seven.
However, to remain alive after partic.i.p.ating in over 1000 battles, and to achieve a winning streak of seven, this person clearly possessed admirable battle prowess.
However, it was just that no one invested in him anymore. He simply fought in this tournament to make a living and earn some cultivation resources. Indeed, those who partic.i.p.ated in the tournament would all be given a battle fee. The amount would be dependent on their strength and popularity.
The person immediately greeted Ling Han with squinting eyes and a wide smile upon seeing him, saying, “Young one, show me some mercy!”
