C51 Killing Wang Chao (Part-2)
C51 Killing Wang Chao (Part-2)
With that attack, Chu Zhongtian ensured that he wouldn't die alone if Wang Chao continued with his attack. After all, if Wang Chao's dagger slashed his neck, then his blade would cleave Wang Chao in half.
Now, Wang Chao was fierce, but not this fierce. In the face of certain death, even he had to stop.
He quickly withdrew his dagger and took a step back.
Wang Chao was not familiar with Chu Zhongtian and had never seen Chu Zhongtian's fighting style. Otherwise, even if he were seriously injured, he would not let Chu Zhongtian have the upper hand.
As Chu Zhongtian watched Wang Chao take a step back, the corners of his lips rose slightly. Then, without stopping, he used the basic saber technique to slash Wang Chao's head and waist.
'I should retreat!'
Facing Chu Zhongtian's almost simultaneous attacks, Wang Chao could only keep retreating.
Right now, Wang Chao was filled with regrets. Had he known that Chu Zhongtian's attack would be so fierce, he would have never let Chu Zhongtian have the upper hand, even if it meant getting seriously injured.
After gaining the upper hand, Chu Zhongtian turned into something terrifying. He was even scarier than Liu Yongjun.
Chu Zhongtian's continuous attacks had put Wang Chao at a complete disadvantage. Moreover, Wang Chao had a feeling that Chu Zhongtian was somehow getting stronger and stronger. If this continued, Wang Chao feared that he would be here today.
'Gotta go all out!' roared Wang Chao in his heart.
Wang Chao's struggles were increasing and Chu Zhongtian attacks were just starting to get fiercer.
After that, he took out a jade bottle from his bosom and poured out a blood-red pill.
His eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Chu Zhongtian, and then he swallowed it without hesitation.
In just three seconds, Wang Chao's aura rose from the early Level-7 Qi Refining realm to the peak Level-7 Qi Refining realm.
After another three seconds, his aura rose again, and he became an early Level-8 Qi Refiner.
"How dare you kill my Wang Family's elites? Today, I will make you pay with your blood!" Wang Chao twisted his neck a few times and said with a ferocious smile.
When Chu Zhongtian felt the rapidly increasing aura, he was neither nervous nor afraid.
Chu Zhongtian was from the Chu Family, which was famous for its pills. He was very familiar with all the pills below Level-9, so he could tell what pill Wang Chao ate with a single glance.
Violent Spirit Pill was a low Level-9 pill. If a Qi Refiner ate it, they would make rapid progress, but it would only last an hour.
After that, the person who consumed it would've to rest for three months, and their strength would automatically drop by one minor level.
In other words, even if Wang Chao didn't die this time, his strength would drop to Level-6 Qi Refining realm in an hour.
Thanks to his knowledge, Chu Zhongtian could remain calm despite witnessing his opponent jump a minor level. His might be calm, but the spectators weren't.
The Wang Family's remaining four disciples' faces turned pale when they saw Wang Chao eat the pill.
When Chu Zhongba didn’t join the battle and Wang Chao had the upper hand, they were pretty pleased, ecstatic even.
They hoped that Wang Chao could kill Chu Zhongtian as soon as possible and avenge their fallen brothers and sisters. However, as Chu Zhongtian counterattacked and gained the upper hand, they began to feel anxious.
Although they were very anxious, they still had confidence in their leader. Since Wang Chao was a peak Level-7 Qi Refiner, they were certain that his spiritual power could outlast Chu Zhongtian's. If the battle drew on for long, Chu Zhongtian would definitely exhaust his spiritual power and lose.
However, they never expected Chu Zhongtian to be so strong that he forced Wang Chao to consume the Violent Spirit Pill, which had a huge side effect.
When they saw Wang Chao take the pill, they immediately felt despair in their hearts. They were well aware of the consequences related to consuming the pill. Even if he could kill Chu Zhongtian and severely injure Chu Zhongba, they would be the ones taking a loss.
Moreover, if he failed to kill Chu Zhongtian even after taking that pill, they would all die here, definitely.
Chu Zhongba's heart was filled with complicated emotions right now.
When Wang Chao had the upper hand, he was secretly delighted in his heart. He felt that Wang Chao could help him get rid of his biggest threat.
However, when Chu Zhongtian turned the tables, he was shocked. He had never thought that Chu Zhongtian, who had wasted a year of cultivation, would improve so quickly.
Despite being levels below Chu Zhongba, Chu Zhongtian's strength was a level above him. This pushed his killing intent toward Chu Zhongtian to the extreme.
Right now, he wished he could join Wang Chao and help him kill Chu Zhongtian.
But he couldn't do that since there were still seven Chu disciples and four Wang disciples in the audience. If the news of them joining hands to kill Chu Zhongtian spread out, he would die without doubt.
After Wang Chao consumed the Violent Spirit Pill, he could finally heave a sigh of relief.
Just like Chu Zhongtian, Chu Zhongba was also well aware of the pill's effects. As he looked at Wang Chao, who was now as strong as a Level-8 Qi Refiner, he shouted in his heart, 'KILL HIM!!!'
Wang Chao tightened his grip on the dagger, activated his insidious dagger technique, and rushed toward Chu Zhongtian with a ferocious smile on his face.
Just as he was about to approach Chu Zhongtian, an imposing aura that made the world change its color and overturned rivers emerged from Chu Zhongtian's body.
This shocking imposing aura stunned Wang Chao. Chu Zhongtian looked at Wang Chao, who was standing in front of him like a fool, and said with a tone full of contempt, "Wang Chao, you are too arrogant. The reason I attacked you just now was that I wanted to see how powerful the dagger is."
"Do you really think you can defeat me?"
After mocking Wang Chao, Chu Zhongtian waved his steel blade toward Wang Chao's head without hesitation.
Then, Chu Zhongtian simply withdrew the force and bent down to collect his spoils of war from Wang Chao.
Just as he had guessed, Wang Chao did indeed go all out to collect as many jade plates as he could.
Out of the 100 jade plates, 32 of them were with him.
Chu Zhongtian looked at the pile of jade plates scattered on the ground and could not help but laugh excitedly. He had 14 jade plates, and with the 32 jade plates from Wang Chao, he now had a total of 46 jade plates.
Including the ten jade plates Chu Yuping had, out of the 100 jade plates, 56 of them were in the hands of the Chu Family.
Forty-six jade plates were more than enough to simply reserve the champion's spot for him.
