Chapter 286 Ferocious

That evening, Xiang Ning took the rest of them to the hotel to train. While he didn’t manage to increase their cultivation, he at least managed to assist them in refining their techniques. They were now able to use a hundred and twenty percent of their strength. They had previously tried learning from recordings of Xiang Ning’s battles, but they were too difficult to emulate since they had no one to guide them. They actually slowed down the videos and comprehended them themselves. But with Xiang Ning’s personal guidance, the effectiveness was increased by ten times or more.

Cultivation wasn’t easy. While some loved it, others were not as enthusiastic. But now, every single action and every single word had caused them to improve. It was just like someone on a diet. Compared to measuring their weight once every month, it was much more exciting to weigh it thrice per day. It was as if they saw their weight decreasing with every weighing. As long as there were results, their efforts were worth it. That, in turn, motivated them to continue.

Everyone was serious in their practice. They were patiently waiting to reveal their full capabilities in their fight tomorrow. They want to show everyone the true strength of Marsh City and its academies!

The night was long as people continued arguing on the internet. More and more people took notice of it and wanted to spectate the next day. They wanted to see which team was so cocky. If they won, the other teams had made the mistake of provoking a giant. If they lost, on the other hand….

......

Dawn soon came and signaled the arrival of the second day. Xiang Ning and Li Zimo simultaneously opened their eyes as they sat up and grinned at each other.

“You settle the first match. I’ll take the second.” Xiang Ning was determined.

Li Zimo nodded. He didn’t know why, but it wasn’t a big issue.

If Wu Rui were there, he would have understood. They would face Lode City’s team in the second match. Xiang Ning wanted to be the one to fight them because of his grudge against them. He could even visualize what would happen.

After washing up, the team entered the vehicle that the committee had prepared in advance and departed for the Heavenly Star Stadium. There was still an hour until the match.

They were surrounded by reporters the moment they disembarked.

“Is it true you’ll only send out one contestant in the match?”

“Do you think you can enter the top five?”

“Where does your confidence in winning against Lode City come from?”

“Is it true you publicly humiliated the contestant from Lode City?”

Xiang Ning and the rest showed no emotion when faced with the reporters’ questions. What would normally be a thirty-second walk turned into a ten-minute delay. They finally entered the corridor for the contestants, where the reporters were barred from entering. However, it didn’t discourage them as they extended their microphones past the corridor and almost shoved them up Xiang Ning’s nose.

Xiang Ning smiled as he stared at the reporters. “You just need to be patient and wait. We won’t disappoint you. Right, Lode City?” He scoffed at the final three words. In an instant, flashes from the cameras almost blinded everyone else.

As for Marsh City, from Fang Rou to Xiang Xiaoyu, and everyone else, all of them were dumbfounded by Xiang Ning’s performance. They had never seen him this haughty before; it was as if he had changed overnight.

Just like… the last time.

Hehe, since you want to instigate dissent against me, I might as well add fuel to the fire. Hope it burns you too!

The representatives from Marsh City never thought that Xiang Ning had been in the wrong. His activation of Disguise and Taunt was a bit rusty. Still, he finally had a chance to use both techniques.

Once they entered the rest area, they sat down and waited patiently while the internet continued scolding Xiang Ning. At first, there were only ten spectators. But in just ten minutes, almost a hundred thousand people had joined the livestream as spectators. The reporters were laughing happily. They loved youngsters like Xiang Ning who spoke honestly and directly. It was bombastic!

“Hahaha! I love fiery news! I can smell the gunpowder from here.”

“And here I thought the match yesterday would be boring, as the team might preserve their strength. But thanks to one of the teams from Marsh City, the rest of the teams had used their hidden cards yesterday. It was interesting!”

“Does this mean that the people from Marsh City are geniuses?”

“Don’t remind me. I saw yesterday that one of the team members easily won their match.”

“Meh. It’s just an amateur fight. I want to see how a single person can fight against two teams today. Let’s see if he’s as ferocious as his teammates were yesterday.”

Most of the spectators were insulting them. People always hated those who acted flamboyantly. On the other hand, Xiang Ning didn’t care too much about it. Whoever fought against him would still lose in the end, after all.

Soon, the battle started. Wu Rui’s team was the first match of the day once again; today, he was all alone. The arena terrain had changed into a city and Wu Rui was standing alone in it.

His hands were in his pockets and his rod was strapped to his back. He took a leisurely stroll in the arena as if he was really back in the city.

The director immediately zoomed in on him. His tall, muscular body and ruthless face were already enough to captivate many people. A murderous aura faintly emanated from him, forged by the hundreds of beasts he had slain.

“Hey, maybe he really can fight against five opponents all by himself.”

“He doesn’t look as weak as everyone said he is.”

“Interesting, interesting indeed.”

Many spectators were excited that they could witness such an exciting fight.

Soon, the competitor walked into the arena as well. Just moments ago he had been saying Wu Rui was a pussy. But now he felt like he was being stared at by a beast, his heart frantically beating as Wu Rui’s fierce eyes stared at him.

On the caster seat, one of the broadcasters started a live commentary. “The two contestants are now on the stage! Their hostility is wild! Wu Rui promised to carry his team, will he be able to do it?!”

“Hoh. Are you ready?” Wu Rui’s expressionless face immediately changed. As he said that, a ferocious grin appeared.

His grin directly destroyed his opponent’s composure as fear gripped his heart. Wu Rui had inherited many things from his family, so his footwork was fast. Still, it was at a speed that the spectators could follow.

But his opponent was frozen in fear, as if he had stared into the demon god’s eyes.

“Are you just here to enjoy the atmosphere?” Wu Rui’s ferocious grin appeared just inches away from his opponent's face. Wu Rui could even see his pupils shaking in fear.
