Chapter 438: 221 Winner, Bai Xiao_2

Arena Area.

The Elder Disciples of Light Saber carried Ye Meng down from the battlefield with the medical staff, evidently for urgent treatment.

Fierce Bird Sect Headquarters.

Facing many gazes, Bai Xiao slowly made his way back to his seat.

As he walked past, a figure nearly pounced on him—a clear attempt to hug Bai Xiao. But with a quick sidestep, he easily dodged. Jian Feng, undeterred, stumbled and danced excitedly on the spot.

"Damn, that was awesome, so cool!"

"Hahaha! That’s our Fierce Bird Sect’s eldest senior brother! Do any of you have such an elder brother in your sects!!!" He pointed toward the spectators around him, his face beaming with pride and excitement as he spoke loudly.

At this moment, they were still caught up in the fervor of Bai Xiao’s championship.

The cheers resounded through the arena, yet to cease.

The audience, surprisingly cooperative, shook their heads with envious looks.

"Hahahaha..."

Jian Feng laughed loudly again, waving his fists.

"I knew our eldest senior brother was the strongest! The Jiang Shuangxiong of Nanjiang, both were personally defeated by elder brother! Even that Ghost Snake Xie Yang before, it was the same. Before the competition started, it was said that the top three favorites to win were all dominated... as if he was in a realm of his own!"

"The most valuable champion!!!"

Beside him, the usually naive Wei Gang started boasting too.

"Next, even in the Eastern Dark World Martial Arts Competition, it’s not impossible for our eldest senior brother to secure a top-ranking position! I see, at least the top ten! Who knows, with a bit more struggle, it’s certainly not a pipe dream!"

Xia Shi was equally excited. She even started feeling sorry for the junior brothers and sisters who stayed back at the Fierce Bird Sect Headquarters. This Nanjiang Province Dark World Martial Arts Competition was too thrilling, too exhilarating. Watching the eldest senior brother Bai Xiao defeating one strong opponent after another, even slaughtering the Jiang Shuangxiong of Nanjiang!

It was even more refreshing than a cold soda on a hot day!

With this enlightenment, Xia Shi felt vaguely enlightened, her eyes showing ecstatic joy. She felt she might attempt to breakthrough to the Martial Fighter Realm herself! Having been stuck at the Breaker level for a long time, her bottleneck had finally loosened.

Fierce Bird Sect Headquarters, Bai Xiao sat down in his own seat.

Not far away, his master Chen Liao and Sect Leader Yan Qi were engaged in an intense discussion. They too seemed quite excited.

Meanwhile, Bai Xiao had already detached himself from that state.

Taking a deep breath, his mindset returned to being cold and calm.

Nearby, three Core Disciples, working with the staff, brought over a special efficacious secret wound medicine provided by the organizers. They applied the cool ointment and powder on Bai Xiao’s wounds while bandaging them.

Although he had Blood Pills for healing, using medicine would obviously speed up the recovery.

Bai Xiao relaxed, his gaze somewhat vacant as he looked forward.

In his field of vision, a professional experience acquisition prompt appeared.

[Your task ’Reward’, Experience +430!]

There it was, yet again eight Potential Points, even nearing nine now. Just as Bai Xiao anticipated, the further he advanced in the Dark World Martial Arts Competition, the stronger his opponents became, and the more experience he gained.

Fang Chao and Ye Meng, these two Jiang Shuangxiong of Nanjiang.

Together, they had brought a total of seventeen Potential Points to Bai Xiao.

He slowly exhaled a breath of warm air, continuing to view his professional tasks.

[Task: Reward (Accumulated Experience: 896)]

Such a pity, just missing exactly nine hundred experience.

But no matter, the upcoming Eastern Dark World Martial Arts Competition will still allow for accumulating more. As long as fifty points are accumulated, they can be extracted.

Bai Xiao’s mind stirred, and immediately a red glow flashed past before his eyes.

"Dark Red."

The power of the modifier instantly enveloped the reward task, covering its surface with a layer of misty water vapor, distorting it with an inexplicable fluctuation.

As time slowly passed, everything in his vision became clear.

[Task: Reward (Accumulated Experience: 46)]

His gaze shifted downward.

[Dark Red Modifier]

[Potential Points: 13→30]

The potential points returned to thirty, equivalent to a full one thousand five hundred experience.

Next, whether it’s pushing the Giant Statue Technique to its limits or waiting for another Hard Skill book promised by Fang Chao from the Star Water Sect, he now had some confidence.

Bai Xiao slightly regained his senses and turned his attention to other alerts.

[Your profession ’Secret Martial Arts Expert’, Experience +392!]

This was the harvest from fighting all day, having two vigorous encounters with the Jiang brothers. Both opponents were strong enough to injure his Ba Snake Body!

His sight swept over this Sect Leader profession again.

As the Dark World Fighting Championship gradually advanced, the experience progress bar for the Secret Martial Arts Expert profession had also moved forward considerably, now exceeding one-third.

Bai Xiao nodded slightly, realizing that he still needed to accumulate experience for his main profession.

He was about to continue reading the profession alerts.

The phone inside the bag beside him suddenly rang.

While Bai Xiao was applying bandages, Jian Feng took the call on his behalf. Bai Xiao opened the phone and saw a message from Fang Chao.

After a few hours of rest, his hand could barely move?

’Martial Enthusiast’: "You won, I didn’t expect that you would be the one to claim the championship of the Nanjiang Province Dark World Fighting Championship. I originally thought that Ye Meng’s Breaking Gang Swordsmanship and Pentagram Sword were your counters. Indeed, there was some restraint, but far from suppression. What was that move you used at the end? It even directly faced the Five-pointed Star Fall... and blew it up!"

Even through the phone screen, Bai Xiao could feel Fang Chao’s shock and strong curiosity. Because Bai Xiao had never used that move on him!

Bai Xiao’s gaze lowered slightly, typing a few words in response.

’Dark Red’: "That move is called... Water Bird Soaring."

The next second, a message alert came.

’Martial Enthusiast’: "Good name! If possible, after I recover from my injuries, when we go to the Eastern Dark World Fighting Championship, can I learn from you with that move? I really want to... face it head-on!"

’Martial Enthusiast’: "By then, when we participate in the Eastern Dark World Fighting Championship. I’ll introduce you to someone who, like you, practices Hard Skill, and probably will suggest a sparring with you. He’s a really nice person..."

Bai Xiao’s gaze flickered slightly.

Clearly, Fang Chao’s two messages. The first was a request, the second was a benefit. He had to agree to spar using Water Bird Soaring, then he would help introduce him. As for the person mentioned in the second message who practiced Hard Skill...

’Dark Red’: "One of the Eastern Seven Stars, Mountain King Chen Xiu?"

’Martial Enthusiast’: "Exactly! How about it, both of you are top experts in Horizontal Training. Chen Xiu has reached the Perfection of Martial Fighter Realm, stepping into the Extreme Realm. Perhaps you might gain some insights from him..."

’Dark Red’: "Alright."

Their conversation ended, and Bai Xiao switched off the phone.

Indeed as Fang Chao said, he was quite intrigued by Mountain King Chen Xiu. Regarding the Extreme Realm, Bai Xiao was also somewhat clueless. Perhaps if he could see a living example of strength, to have a reference, crossing the river by touching the stones, the path forward might be smoother. He thought to himself.
