Chapter 202: Chapter 0192: It certainly won’t be his turn Chapter 202: Chapter 0192: It certainly won’t be his turn Chapter 0192 – He Definitely Wouldn’t Stand a Chance

Most of the time, people only choose to believe what they want to believe.

Like now, Qi Tian had already made quite a name for himself in Imperial Master Mansion, in Huangque Hall and Sky Eagle Hall, there were hardly a few who didn’t know of him Qi Tian. And even less knew that he could defeat those at the Half-step Foundation Establishment stage. However, in Golden Roc Hall, there were not many who recognized him nor acknowledged his abilities.

For a long time, Golden Roc Hall had always been superior to Sky Eagle Hall. It’s no exaggeration to say that a Half-step Foundation from Golden Roc Hall carried more weight in their words than a common Foundation Establishment Stage Minister from Sky Eagle Hall. Usually, these Foundation Establishment Ministers would choose to avoid them when they encounter a Half-step Foundation from Golden Roc Hall. This behaviour had led to unwarranted arrogance among Golden Roc Hall’s Half-step Foundations, revolving around the idea that they were superior to all.

Even though Qi Tian had easily defeated He Xiaojian earlier, they didn’t bother to investigate Qi Tian’s capabilities. They simply assumed Qi Tian’s defeat of He Xiaojian was just a fluke and his strength was only marginally better than that of He Xiaojian. What had led to He Xiaojian’s quick defeat was entirely due to his underestimation of his opponent, believing that even if he were to lose to He Xiaojian, he certainly wouldn’t lose so quickly if he took the fight seriously.

Of course, what had driven them to such conclusions was largely credited to the Purple Fire Fruit and the Sha Mu Thorn. Greed tends to cloud one’s judgment, even some of those who normally were more composed, completely lost their sanity in the face of such invaluable herbs essential for concocting Foundation Establishment pills. Taking a bit of risk for obtaining the Purple Fire Fruit and the Sha Mu Thorn was very, very normal.

Qi Tian said, “Do not be anxious, brothers and sisters. If you wish to bet with me, there are a few rules. Firstly, anyone wanting to bet with me needs to register first. The registration fee is one million taels’ worth of cultivation resources. If you register but later decide not to participate in the bet, there will be no refund. However, if you choose to continue, this registration fee will be part of the bet. Secondly, every registered individual must sign a form, promising to bear the consequences of the outcome of the bet, and to ensure that no grudges occur privately. If you agree to these two conditions, you can go to Brother Chu Yang to register. Brother Chu Yang, you will be responsible for the registrations. Could Liu Wei and Yuan Jingxian supervise the collection of registration fees and the execution of the contract?”

“I still have to do work?!” Chu Yang was stunned for a moment before immediately providing an affirmation. “Yes, yes, please, brothers and sisters, register with me.”

Before Chu Yang could finish speaking, the Half-step Foundation and the Qi Cultivation Peak disciples from Golden Roc Hall who had clamored for a bet fight with Qi Tian had swarmed him, all scrambling to register.

A million tales was definitely not a small amount. If they were asked to pay a million taels in cash, they might not be able to afford it. But if it’s a million taels’ worth of cultivation resources, that wouldn’t be a problem. Any one of them had consumed resources worth several million taels from the first day of their cultivation until now.

The value of the Purple Fire Fruit and the Sha Mu Thorn themselves were not cheap. Once they could be used to make Foundation Establishment pills, even thousands of spirit stones couldn’t match their value. People would fight over them with eagerness.

Comparatively, the one-million-tale registration fee was nothing.

Soon, all thirteen teams that had just emerged from Golden Roc Hall had paid their registration fees to Chu Yang. Holding onto the cultivation resources worth thirteen million taels, Chu Yang was caught between laughter and tears. He took some risks to obtain some cultivation resources, had to go to Lianying realm, stationed for several months, and only then was able to gain some harvest. In contrast, Qi Tian simply baited them using the Purple Fire Fruit and Sha Mu Thorn and easily obtained their registration fees. There truly was no comparison between the ingenuity of people.

Qi Tian took the roster from Chu Yang and looked at the name of the first registrant. “Liu Tong, Brother Liu Tong, are you here?”

A young man of about twenty stood out. “I’m here.”

Qi Tian nodded and said, “Are you sure you want to challenge me? If so, please top up the bet.”

Liu Tong directly handed a Storage Bag to Chu Yang. It was filled with either elixirs or all kinds of natural treasures. Topping up the bet to meet the challenge was not a problem.

“Brother Liu, please.” Qi Tian gestured to Liu Tong with a cupped fist salute.

Liu Tong roared and clenched his fists. Swinging his fist at Qi Tian, he declared, “I’ll show you my signature Exiting Mountain Fist move.”

Liu Tong’s fist was indeed powerful. His Exiting Mountain Fist was a top-grade skill of the Yellow-rank, and he employed it with great proficiency. Every punch he threw seemed to pierce the air, causing a gust of wind sound.

Unfortunately, Qi Tian was likewise an expert in fist combat. To fully comprehend the Eight Desolate Demon Tiger Fist, he had diligently practiced every movement thousands of times, only then did he grasp the essence of the Eight Desolate Demon Tiger Fist. In his eyes, Liu Tong’s Exiting Mountain Fist had too many openings to exploit. If he wanted to, he could not only defeat Liu Tong with a single punch but also send Liu Tong directly to meet Yama.

Qi Tian did not want to make enemies. He used his body movement technique and symbolically avoided a few punches. After allowing Liu Tong to make a decent withdrawal in the future, he suddenly counterattacked. His fist collided with Liu Tong’s, sending Liu Tong flying backward in defeat.
