Tribulation of Myriad Races Chapter 191: One Hit Knockout (3)

Chapter 191: One Hit Knockout (3)

Su Yu did not say anything. With an Infinite Strength talisman, Lin Yao would be able to unleash the damage of an Infinite Strength cultivator. But Su Yu was also capable of that! Now that he was thinking about it, his blood essence ability was quite similar to talismans.

Of course, his ability was much cheaper to activate. He could get a drop of blood essence for only three merit points. Talismans were way too expensive. Would anyone actually buy them?

“Are there restrictions on the usage of talisman in the ring?”

“No. After all, some students major in talismans. You can’t limit their usage of talismans, right? Don’t worry. The activation of talismans requires willpower. He won’t be able to use talismans beyond his level too much. Even if he could, he would still need some time to toss the talisman at you. You can just move aside. At times, using too many talismans would only drag you down…

“If talismans are really that easy to use, the Top 100 Ranking would have been dominated by the Talisman Faculty already. However, there are only about four or five of them in the ranking.”

Su Yu was relieved. Xia Huyou was right. If talismans were really so overpowered, then nobody else would be able to get into the Top 100 Ranking. Anyone with Skysoar talismans would be able to easily get into the top 10.

Su Yu looked around but Lin Yao was nowhere to be seen. However, he could see Chen Qi not far away. He asked curiously, “Have you told Lin Yao?”

“About Chen Qi?”

“Yes.”

“I did.” Xia Huyou lowered his voice, “I told him. He’s not that dumb so he would definitely watch his back after that. He will be fine.”

Suddenly, a group of people rushed over from afar. Lin Yao was one of them.

Even before arriving, Lin Yao shouted, “Su Yu, you despicable snake! You actually got someone to drug me last night?”

Lin Yao was in a sorry state. There were even some bloodstains on his clothes.

“Despicable! You hired someone to mix some Technique Confusion Powder in my tea last night. You’re playing foul to win against me!”

.

Boom!

A ruckus erupted.

Someone immediately said, “That’s impossible. If you’re scared, don’t accept the flight. Why are you slandering our class monitor?”

Lin Yao snorted, “I’m scared? Why would I be scared of Su Yu? I’m already near the Great Strength Realm. The shameless Su Yu colluded with Xia Huyou to drug me. Both of them are working together to make me lose and win big from the bets.”

Su Yu frowned. Xia Huyou’s expression changed too. Lin Yao wasn’t a fool after all. He was cooking his own scheme against Su Yu as well!

Lin Yao roared, “I never lie. If you don’t believe me, you can investigate it. I’ll also be reporting this matter to the guards. They will be making an official investigation as well. I was really drugged last night. My willpower nearly collapsed because of the drug.”

Not far away, Chen Qi’s heart thumped. But he quickly calmed down. It wasn’t him. It was Su Yu. Yes, it was Su Yu!

Also, the Technique Confusion Powder was no poison. After consuming it, one’s willpower would recover in a day or two. Thus, even if his involvement was found out, he wouldn’t be punished too heavily.

Su Yu and Xia Huyou instantly understood what happened. Lin Yao knew that Chen Qi was the culprit but instead of exposing Chen Qi, he was throwing the blame on them. Even if the truth was revealed, he would still be the victim. It would be perfectly understandable for him to get the culprit wrong. And it was perfectly reasonable for him to suspect Su Yu since they did have a fight today.

Xia Huyou clenched his teeth. Lin Yao was actually using him as a prop. He had really looked down on Lin Yao too much.

Su Yu gazed at Lin Yao for a while before slowly saying, “Lin Yao, do you mean that you’re not fighting anymore? Are you saying that I drugged you because I was afraid of losing to you?”

“Yes.” Lin Yao coldly said, “You’re too shameless. You pretend to be innocent and kind, but you’re secretly treacherous and despicable. Luckily, I reacted in time and didn’t take in too much of the drug. In truth, I still have the confidence to defeat you. But I disdain sparring against a shameless person like you. You’re not worth my time.”

After saying all that, Lin Yao’s aura erupted, showing that he entered the Great Strength Realm. Apart from his physical cultivation, his willpower was very strong too. But everyone could sense that his willpower was pulsing erratically. It was rather unstable at the moment. That was the sign that he had consumed the Technique Confusion Powder.

After that demonstration, many people looked at Su Yu, including some of the students in the intermediate class. They were still in disbelief, but was there a need for Lin Yao to do this to himself just to avoid the fight?

“You think I drugged you because I was afraid of losing…” Su Yu laughed. “Is this what a high-high genius of the cultural research academy amounts to? This is enlightening. A small city kid like me really knows too little before. This is my very first time learning that someone can be this shameless.”

Lin Yao snorted coldly, “No matter how you act, you can’t hide the fact that you had conspired against me.”

Su Yu exhaled lightly and smiled, “What if I can prove that I didn’t drug you? Would our bet still count?”

“And how are you going to prove that?”

“Just answer my question. Would our bet still count?”

“Yes.” Lin Yao sneered, “Feel free to take out your proof.”

Su Yu smiled. He slowly said, “Isn’t that simple? In my eyes, you’re merely a crazy dog that is barking furiously. Apart from having a loud voice, you have nothing. Why would I need to resort to underhanded tricks against you? I didn’t even know about the existence of the Technique Confusion Powder before today…”

Su Yu laughed, “Forget it. I honestly couldn’t care less about sore losers. Proof? Heh. You’re not worth even that much effort from me. But I’ll generously show you the proof.”

Next, Su Yu looked at Chen Qi and nonchalantly said, “Chen Qi, the mountainbreak bull blood essence used to be yours. Now, as a top three student of my intermediate class, I challenge you. If you win, you can get the blood essence. If you lose, pay me 1,000 merit points.”

Chen Qi was stunned. Re𝒂𝒂d the latest stories 𝒐n nov𝒆lbin(.)com

“I’ll get the blood essence if I win? No other requirements?”

He was dumbfounded. In their previous agreement, he still had to pay a price even if he won.

Su Yu calmly said, “Nope. If I lose, I lose. Some losers take defeat with bad grace. I am Su Yu. I am not a sore loser. Chen Qi, are you better than this shameless dog?”

Chen Qi frowned. After a while, he smiled, “Su Yu, you’re a very interesting person. You want to defeat me and prove that you’re stronger than him? Is there a need to prove this? Even in his peak condition, I can defeat Lin Yao in three moves. Ask everyone here. Nobody will deny that. Lin Yao, what do you think?”

Lin Yao had an unsightly expression. But he didn’t say anything.

Su Yu smiled, “That’s good to hear. If I win, does that mean that this dog has been lying all along? He was afraid of losing so he arranged for such an act and made a fool out of himself.”

Chen Qi smiled and said, “Of course. If you can defeat me, why would you need to use trickeries against Lin Yao? What a joke would that be. Su Yu, are you really challenging me?”

Chen Qi was starting to get excited. Su Yu had actually challenged him first. And even the terms of their challenge had changed. Su Yu would either pay up with his blood essence or gain 1,000 merit points from the fight. If Chen Qi won, he no longer needed to pay what he had promised previously.

His scheme against Lin Yao had failed, but Su Yu had still taken the bait. Even the heavens were helping him! In his plan, Lin Yao was supposed to be drugged early this morning. But Lin Yao had discovered the plan in advance and turned it against Su Yu instead.

At this moment, Chen Qi could no longer be bothered to think too much. He only knew that he seemed to be the big winner in all this. A big smile appeared on his face. The expressions of the students around them changed.

A student from the intermediate class said, “Class Monitor, don’t be rash. They are colluding to provoke you!”

“Shameless! They are doing all this for Class Monitor’s blood essence!”

Many of the students were furious. This was obviously a scheme against Su Yu. And Su Yu was so furious he wasn’t thinking straight. He had actually challenged Chen Qi, a seventh-stage Great Strength cultivator? That was a hopeless fight.

Su Yu waved his hand and calmly said, “Don’t worry. This is great. These shameless clowns have succeeded in angering me. I, Su Yu, have always treated others with sincerity. Today, I am being framed for something I didn’t do. If I win against Chen Qi, Lin Yao would need to give me an explanation. I won’t let this slide.”

Su Yu jumped into the ring.

“Great Strength!”

Someone exclaimed in shock.

“Chen Qi, get in here!”

Chen Qi was also stunned. Su Yu had actually reached the Great Strength Realm as well. This kid was growing too quickly. His expression changed slightly, but he still jumped into the ring. A few researchers landed from the sky. Liu Hong and Huang Yao were among them.

Huang Yao looked at Su Yu and sternly said, “We heard everything. Are you sure you want to use this method to prove yourself?”

“Yes. I need to tell Lin Yao that he will never understand the world I am in. He doesn’t understand the world of geniuses. The strong do not need to use trickeries against the weak. And definitely not against a worthless dog like him.”

“You…” Huang Yao frowned. This was too rash.

He sighed and said, “I have nothing to say. The challenge is allowed. It will continue until one party concedes.”

Su Yu did not say anything. Chen Qi also stayed silent.

When Liu Hong saw that, he said, “If both of you agree, both Assistant Huang and I will be the referees. I ask again, are you sure you want to initiate this challenge?”

“Yes.”

“Yes.”

“Ok. Let the match begin.”

Immediately after, Su Yu swallowed a drop of iron-winged bird blood essence. His aura surged. A black saber flickered into existence. Thick killing intent spread out of the saber, causing the hearts of all who looked at it to palpitate.

Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled while a murderous pressure spread.

Lightning, blood, and killing intent. All three became one. Source qi seethed as the aura of an Infinite Strength cultivator erupted.

“Wallbreaker!”

“Kill!”

The expression of the seventh-stage Great Strength Chen Qi changed. Even Liu Hong and Huang Yao were shocked. The saber shot forth. It was fast. Incomparably fast. It was a top-tier yellow-grade culture weapon. Three Divine Characters were imbued in it and it was wielded by someone with the strength of an Infinite Strength cultivator.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. The black saber pierced through Chen Qi’s shoulder and nailed him onto the floor. Su Yu’s face paled slightly, but he snorted and removed his attention from Chen Qi. He turned and looked at Lin Yao who was standing outside the ring.

“Piece of trash. Completely worthless. How are people like you worthy of competing against me?”

Everyone was in stunned silence.

In the ring, Chen Qi was nailed on the floor with a dazed expression. This was the same expression Hu Wensheng had not long ago. Liu Hong and a few others couldn’t help but to recall the sight of Bai Feng defeating Hu Wensheng with one hit.

This was basically a repeat of that.
