Chapter 3753: Dazzling Battle
Outside the door, Tan Zhengjie got up, his face filled with fury and shame.
He had actually been thrown out the door!
This was a great humiliation.
Though no one outside had witnessed his humiliating scene, Ling Han and his three servants had seen it, and he too would remember this scene forever.
He definitely had to get his revenge!
However, how was he supposed to get his revenge?
“Oh, that’s right. The Dazzling Tournament will be held in nine days’ time. At that time, I will ask a few people to join forces to deal with him!” Tan Zhengjie’s eyes turned, and he had already thought of an idea. He chuckled coldly, “So what if you are strong? I am no match for you in a one-on-one battle, but if I get ten people to gang up on you, I don’t believe that you won’t collapse!”
…
Ling Han wasn’t worried about Tan Zhengjie’s revenge. This was the Political Hostage Manor, so who would dare to mess around?
Moreover, he did not take Tan Zhengjie seriously at all. In his eyes, what was Tan Zhengjie worth?
Two days later, Liu Xunyu ran over again, and told Ling Han to attend an event.
“Seven days later, the Dazzling Tournament will be held,” she said.
“What is the Dazzling Tournament?” Ling Han asked.
“Oh, this is an event organized by our Jia Yuan Manor. The main purpose is to promote everyone’s friends.h.i.+p,” Liu Xunyu said with a smile. “It’s a compet.i.tion for a colourful ball. Whoever can s.n.a.t.c.h it will be the winner.”
“How much is the prize money?” Ling Han asked again.
Liu Xunyu’s expression involuntarily darkened. Are you a money grubber?
‘I’ve already said that the main purpose is to promote the friends.h.i.+p between us. Why are you suddenly thinking about money?’
“There is no prize money.” She shook her head, then continued, “However, the prize of the winner surpa.s.s all other treasures. Every time it is held, it would be fought over extremely fiercely.”
“Oh, what is it?” Ling Han’s interest was piqued.
Liu Xunyu first kept him in suspense, and merely pursed her lips in a smile. After a while, she said, “The person who finally wins the colourful ball will be able to leave Jia Yuan Manor, and gain a day of freedom.”
A day’s freedom?
This sounded very pitiful and cheap. When had the value of a day of freedom surpa.s.sed all other treasures?
However, for hostages like Ling Han, a day’s freedom was a valuable prize.
No wonder they would fight tooth and nail every time.
Ling Han glanced at Liu Xunyu. There were three Cauldron Forging Tier cultivators in this Jia Yuan Manor, so who would be able to compete with the three of them? Though Ling Han was very confident in himself, he did not think that he could defeat a Cauldron Forging Tier.
This wasn’t the Werewolf High Priest. In order to survive, he had gone all out.
Furthermore, there had been a great many people helping at the time, impeding the attention of the Werewolf High Priest, which allowed the Heavenly Pattern Jade to succeed.
Under normal circ.u.mstances, no matter how freakish a Foundation Building cultivator was, they wouldn’t be able to rival a Cauldron Forging Tier cultivator.
-Perhaps, after Ling Han had reached the Ultimate Dao Foundation, he could challenge the impossible.
Liu Xunyu smiled, shook her head and said, “Don’t worry, the three of us Cauldron Forging Tier elites won’t even partic.i.p.ate.”
This made things easier. In the Foundation Building Tier, Ling Han was invincible.
However, Ling Han was pondering the hidden meaning of these words.
For hostages like them, freedom was an incomparable luxury, even if it was only a short day. However, the three Cauldron Forging Tier cultivators actually gave up such an opportunity? Why?
This meant that they should have other channels to leave Jia Yuan Manor.
Then, since this was an event hosted by hostages like them, what right did they have to obtain the right from the Clan Mansion to let the victor leave the manor?
Interesting.
Ling Han nodded, and said, “Alright, I’ll partic.i.p.ate then.”
Liu Xunyu smiled beautifully, then suddenly paused, “Is there some kind of conflict between you and Tan Zhengjie?”
“No.” Ling Han pretended to be surprised, “I have always been very concerned about the relations.h.i.+p between myself and my teammates, so how could there possibly be any
conflict?”
“That’s good.” Liu Xunyu nodded, turned and left.
Ling Han stroked his chin as he watched her leave.
Liu Xunyu had suddenly asked him if there was any conflict between him and Tan Zhengjie, so it was obvious that she was already aware of the enmity between him and Tan Zhengjie. After all, Tan Zhengjie kept calling her Sister Liu, but Liu Xunyu did not expose him. Why was that?
Thinking about it, it should be related to his alchemy skills.
An alchemist who could concoct the Foundation Dissolution Pill, Ling Han’s future prospects were definitely boundless.
What Ling Han needed was only an opportunity. He would take the Foundation Dissolution Pill and walk around, and he would definitely be able to form a network, and soon be able to walk out of Jia Yuan Manor.
On the other side, the empress, Lin Luo, and the others had also arrived at the Moonlight Planet. They had communicated with Ling Han through the Galaxy Network, and informed Ling Han of where they had settled down.
They would think of a way to join some sects, and get themselves a “legal” ident.i.ty. Theoretically speaking, they were all unregistered, and needed to use this to clear their name. Moreover, they couldn’t always rely on Ling Han to obtain cultivation resources. One had to know that they were all true overlords in the Genesis World, and which of them wasn’t extremely proud and arrogant?
Ling Han waited patiently. He concocted alchemical pills every day, concocting at least four cauldrons a day, and had already saved up a great many Foundation Dissolution Pills. Furthermore, the Foundation Dissolution Pills that he had sold through the Galaxy Network had also gained the approval of those ten customers. Thus, aside from the nickname of a money grubber, Ling Han also gained the t.i.tle of a prodigy alchemist on the Galaxy Network, and this t.i.tle was quite positive.
In the blink of an eye, seven days had pa.s.sed.
The Dazzling Tournament was about to begin.
There were a total of 20 Foundation Building cultivators in the Jia Yuan Manor, and they were all partic.i.p.ating in this compet.i.tion.
This naturally was set on the battlefield, and a colourful ball was placed right in the centre. There were rules in the Dazzling Tournament. Firstly, one was not allowed to fly on a Spirit Tool, and was not allowed to leap over 30 meters in a single bound. Secondly, s.n.a.t.c.hing the colourful ball did not mean that one had won, but rather had to be brought out of the battlefield. However, others could s.n.a.t.c.h it, and could even destroy the colourful ball. Once the colourful ball was destroyed, the tournament would be paused, and a new one would be subst.i.tuted before starting again.
In principle, deliberate injury was not allowed, but since this was a contest, there would definitely be a fierce clash, and it was inevitable that they would suffer some injuries.
Ling Han swept an eye over, and saw that Tan Zhengjie was presently looking at him coldly, killing intent seeping from him.
He, looks like this person had not learnt his lesson, and still wanted to cause trouble. Whatever. Worse come to worst, he would just give him a beating.
Liu Xunyu, Han Bing and Zhao Xiao had also come. The three of them had also taken on the role of referees, and were standing at three corners of the battlefield respectively.
“Begin.” Liu Xunyu waved her hand.
Instantly, everyone rushed towards the centre of the battlefield. There was presently a
colourful ball of bright red there.
Ling Han’s speed was the fastest. He had no time to dawdle. Shua, shua, shua! His feet flew,
and he was the first to arrive at the side of the colourful ball. Then, he crouched down, and was
just about to pick up the colourful ball.
Yi?
He shockingly discovered that the colorful ball seemed to have been rooted into the ground. If
he forcefully pulled it up, this ball would definitely explode.
This was made from very ordinary materials, so how could it withstand the power of a
Foundation Building cultivator?
