Chapter 100: Yes, This is Called a Dark Curtain
"I understand, Father." Lu He nodded, took a deep breath, and tried to suppress the rage in his chest.
On the arena, the two sides did not start fighting immediately.
Ye Fengsheng scrutinized Tang Rao and his two companions, seemingly waiting for a chance to strike.
Ye Xiaobai stood at the back, arms crossed, looking as if he was just watching and wouldn't make a move.
As for Ye Mo, her eyes were fixed on Tang Rao.
To this moment, she could hardly believe that this Sister Xin Er described a seemingly old hooligan who actually possessed exceptional strength.
He looked like he was just twenty years old, even younger than her, how did he cultivate?
It's too freakish!
"Tang Rao, aren't you very powerful? Get on with it!" From the Bai Family's side, Bai Ge looked at Tang Rao and sneered.
Tang Rao glanced at Bai Ge and remained indifferent, thinking to himself that this fool's mind must be full of shit.
The fifty Blood Spirit Pills I've earned are secure, you guys play however you like.
"Do you want me to pick an opponent for you? That Ye Xiaobai, he's the weakest, fight him. Maybe with some luck, you won't end up half-paralyzed." Bai Ge cackled, his face brimming with smiles.
This Tang Rao is a piece of junk, he's got no real skills.
See, when it really comes to the stage, he turns into a coward.
"Shut up!" In the midst of Bai Ge speaking, Ye Fengsheng shouted angrily and suddenly attacked.
Ye Fengsheng's speed was extremely fast, his attacks were sharp and fierce, his momentum overwhelmingly powerful.
His first target was Bai Ge.
At the sight of Ye Fengsheng charging at him, Bai Ge was shocked and quickly stimulated his Spiritual Energy to retreat and counterattack.
Bang bang bang bang bang!
The two instantly clashed, their movements a blur of motion.
Bai Ge actually turned out to have some skills, thanks to his footwork and Spiritual Energy, he didn't immediately lose.
"Tang Rao, together!" Bai Lengqing also took a step forward and attacked Ye Fengsheng.
Ye Fengsheng had come alone, if the three of them could knock Ye Fengsheng off the stage quickly, that would make things much easier.
Tang Rao glanced at Bai Lengqing, his expression indifferent.
Work together? I've already taken someone's bribe.
Do you know what this is called? Yes, it's called a black box.
"Ye Mo, aren't you going to intervene?" Seeing Ye Fengsheng being attacked by Bai Ge and Bai Lengqing, Ye Xiaobai couldn't help but ask.
"As long as Tang Rao doesn't move, Brother Fengsheng can win; if Tang Rao makes a move, my going wouldn't make a difference," Ye Mo shrugged nonchalantly.
Ye Xiaobai nodded, it made sense.
His elder brother, although naive to worldly ways, was fiercely strong.
Neither Bai Ge nor Bai Lengqing could possibly withstand him.
Unless Bai Lengjing reached the mid-stage of Qi gathering, then there might be a chance.
After ten moves, Bai Ge and Bai Lengqing gradually weakened, retreating step by step.
As for Ye Fengsheng, he was like a battle maniac, growing stronger as the fight wore on, roaring continuously.
"This Ye Fengsheng, he has good potential indeed," Tang Rao muttered as he watched Ye Fengsheng, noticing the latter's innate fervor for combat. Such a person, if cultivated properly, would definitely have a promising future.
"Tang Rao, what are you doing! Get in there!" Below the stage, the people from the Bai Family were all shouting, all of them extremely dissatisfied with Tang Rao.
Even Bai Xiaotong's brow furrowed, wondering what was Tang Rao up to?
Couldn't he see that Bai Ge and Bai Lengqing were about to lose?
Although there were some grievances with Bai Ge, they were still family after all.
Unfortunately, Tang Rao didn't care about how the people of the Bai Family shouted from below the stage. If you've got what it takes, come up here yourself; if not, stop yapping.
Once Bai Ge and Bai Lengqing fell off the stage, the fifty Blood Spirit Pills would be mine.
What does family honor, or qualification promotions have to do with me...
"I heard that this Tang Rao is the son of Bai Yushu."
"Uh, he accidentally opened his Qi Mansion, probably got pushed into it out of desperation."
"Haha, that kid must be scared to the point of peeing his pants right now."
Many people started laughing.
The Bai Family members all had dark expressions on their faces, feeling utterly humiliated.
Even Bai Juding, who usually has great composure, was gritting his teeth and frowning at this moment.
He had heard that Tang Rao beat Lu He, which was why he let Tang Rao join the exchange meeting. It seems there might be more to the story of Tang Rao beating Lu He.
"Bang bang!" Two loud explosions sounded, Bai Ge and Bai Lengqing were almost simultaneously hit by Ye Fengsheng.
The immense force knocked them out of the ring and onto the ground below.
Falling off the ring meant defeat.
"Tang Rao, you coward! Trash!" After falling off the ring, Bai Ge immediately stood up and started cursively yelling at Tang Rao.
Bai Lengqing also had a cold expression, staring dead at Tang Rao.
She didn't look down on Tang Rao for lacking in strength, she looked down on him for not having the courage to fight.
Tang Rao slightly smirked, mission accomplished, fifty Blood Spirit Pills secured.
Fifty thousand units of Spiritual Energy, I should reach the middle stage of Qi Gathering now.
Ye Xiaobai also wore a smile, Tang Rao really knew how to seize an opportunity, just watching as two from the Bai Family were eliminated.
Since that's the case, then their Ye Family should all advance.
I didn't expect I, Ye Xiaobai, could make it into the singles competition.
"Bang!" After Ye Fengsheng knocked Bai Ge and Bai Lengqing out of the ring, he fiercely turned toward Tang Rao, gathering strength in his feet and suddenly charging.
He wanted to take down the entire Bai Family in one go.
"Big brother, don't!" Ye Xiaobai quickly shouted.
"Fengsheng brother, retreat!" Ye Mo also looked anxious.
Below the ring, Ye Qing's complexion suddenly darkened; bad, I forgot to discuss this with Fengsheng.
Uh...
Tang Rao watched Ye Fengsheng charging at him somewhat speechlessly; Ye Qing seemed to have failed to communicate properly with Ye Fengsheng, how ridiculous.
Well, I guess I'll treat it as a little workout.
Ye Fengsheng arrived in the blink of an eye, his punch was sharp, but it also clearly held back, showing remarkable control.
"It seems the Bai Family is really on the decline."
"Yes, getting dominated by Ye Fengsheng in a series of strikes is embarrassing."
The people below the ring were discussing animatedly; in their view, Tang Rao was bound to lose.
Who is Ye Fengsheng? He is one of the top contenders among the younger generation, a hot favorite for the top three in this exchange meeting.
"Plenty of spirit, but lacking in purity," Tang Rao muttered under his breath, slowly raising his right arm.
Bang!
Ye Fengsheng's fist smashed hard into Tang Rao's palm, causing a thunderous boom.
Spiritual Energy exploded dramatically!
Ye Fengsheng staggered back seven or eight steps, while Tang Rao stood firm like a boulder, unmovable.
The entire martial arts arena fell silent in an instant, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
"Wow!" After two seconds of silence, the crowd suddenly erupted uncontrollably.
Below the ring, Bai Ge, who had been ready to taunt Tang Rao after he was supposed to be knocked down, stood with his mouth agape, as if waiting for ~shit~ to eat.
Beside him, Bai Lengqing was also slightly stunned, with an icy yet extremely beautiful face full of surprise.
Tang Rao pushed Ye Fengsheng back with a palm so easily and effortlessly.
How... could this be?
The question in everyone's mind present was the same: how could this be?
"Come again!" In Ye Fengsheng's eyes, a suddenly surging, overwhelming fighting spirit erupted, his Spiritual Energy furious, ready to give it his all.
That formidable aura even made some of the older generation in the late stage of Qi Gathering take notice.
