Chương 152: Chapter 152: Wu Hao Collapses
Bai Cheng deliberately glanced back at Bai Feng and Bai Shan.
The two shook their heads, indicating they hadn't provoked Lin Xiu.
Seeing this, Bai Cheng felt slightly relieved.
He was afraid Bai Shan didn't know the severity of the situation. During the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, Bai Shan was shocked by Lin Xiu.
Bai Shan had thoughts of retaliation, but after being severely disciplined by himself, he gave up.
Lin Xiu didn't look at Bai Cheng, but turned his gaze to Hu Jia beside him. "Is the person who injured you among them? Boldly point them out."
At these words, Hu Jia was stunned, and her gaze fell on the members of the White Gang.
"Lin Xiu, are you standing up for Pan's Gate?"
Before Hu Jia could speak, Bai Cheng asked first, his expression slightly dark and his tone a bit displeased.
He had been briefed on Hu Jia's injury, so he knew about it.
But this was between their White Gang and Pan's Gate.
Bai Cheng even planned that when Pan's Gate people came looking for trouble, he would directly take them to the arena and have a few matches.
Let these newcomers know what the rules of the inner courtyard are.
"You can mess with anyone from Pan's Gate, but Hu Jia is off-limits. I promised Headmaster Hu Gan to help take care of her."
Lin Xiu explained.
He didn't mind Pan's Gate or have any grievances against them; it was simply that he hadn't received any benefits from Pan's Gate.
If he didn't explain, it would be letting Pan's Gate take advantage for nothing.
"Her?"
Bai Cheng was stunned.
He never dreamed that, despite warning Bai Shan not to provoke Lin Xiu, they would still end up with Lin Xiu at their door because of a girl named Hu Jia.
He asked, "What do you want to do? Find the person and beat them up? Then I advise you not to dream. We, the White Gang, are united. If you want to stand up for Hu Jia, then let's settle it in the arena."
As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly received responses from the members of the White Gang.
Everyone was talking at once, their expressions furious.
It seemed that with just a gesture from Bai Cheng, they would all rush forward and overwhelm Lin Xiu.
Next to him, Wu Hao, looking at the dozens of angry faces, subconsciously stepped back a couple of paces from Lin Xiu.
The entire White Gang, aside from Bai Cheng, had several Dou Spirits, and there were quite a few 8 and 9-Star Dou Grandmasters as well.
If it came to a fight, he, as a lone 9-Star Dou Grandmaster, wouldn't be able to hold his ground.
Suddenly.
Wu Hao noticed that all the voices disappeared in an instant, and the expressions on those people's faces all changed.
Each one of them was dumbfounded, as if they had just seen something extremely terrifying in broad daylight.
Following their gazes, Wu Hao slowly turned his head and his eyes widened suddenly.
His gaze was fixed firmly on the wings formed by Dou Qi behind Lin Xiu.
"Dou Qi Wings! Lin Xiu, when did you advance to Dou King?!"
Wu Hao couldn't help but scream first.
His mentality collapsed.
During the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, he thought Lin Xiu was so strong only because he had entered the inner courtyard early.
The training environment in the inner courtyard was good, and his strength improved quickly.
In order to catch up with Lin Xiu, Wu Hao worked tirelessly every day, practicing in the tower when he had Fire Energy and earning in the arena when he didn't.
But now seeing Lin Xiu is actually a Dou King?!
How am I supposed to catch up now?
Hu Jia's reaction was slightly more restrained than Wu Hao's, but the trembling pupils indicated that the impact she received was no lighter than Wu Hao's.
How come, in the blink of an eye, he has pulled ahead of me by a whole realm?
As someone hailed as a gifted little demoness, how can I describe Lin Xiu's speed?
His rate of improvement is too terrifying!
Just over a year and a half, from a 1-Star Dou Grandmaster to a Dou King, is that something a person can achieve?
Bai Cheng's eyes were filled with profound astonishment as he stared fixedly at the pair of wings behind Lin Xiu, swallowing hard.
Damn it! How could he be a Dou King?!
What did I just say? Did I actually want to compare myself to Lin Xiu in the arena?
That's a Dou King! What can I compare myself to? Even if I stake my life, it's useless!
The difference between a Dou King and a Dou Spirit distinguishes the strong from the weak, and the gap between the two realms is particularly large.
"Speak up! Anyone else want to challenge me?"
Lin Xiu snorted coldly, looking at the crowd as if they had suddenly lost the ability to speak.
"You guys..."
Bai Cheng sighed heavily, pointing out several people in the crowd to apologize to Hu Jia.
From the moment Lin Xiu revealed his strength, he understood that the outcome couldn't be changed.
In front of the strong, the weak can only take a beating standing up straight!
That's reality, and it's also the rule of the inner courtyard.
He just hadn't expected Lin Xiu to advance to Dou King so quickly.
He had been in the inner courtyard for a longer time than Lin Xiu!
Even Lin Xiu Ya, Yan Hao, Liu Qing, these geniuses, haven't advanced to Dou King yet, and Lin Xiu has actually done it even before them.
"Are you satisfied?" Lin Xiu asked Hu Jia.
She was slightly startled, nodding repeatedly, "Yes, thank you."
"It's nothing. I'll leave now. If you ever get bullied again, you can come to me. Don't worry about causing trouble. I promised Headmaster Hu Gan, and I won't break my word," Lin Xiu said calmly.
After finishing his words, he turned and left directly.
With this incident, he believed that it wouldn't be long before the news spread.
In the future, no one should bother Hu Jia, and I can be at ease too.
As Lin Xiu expected, in the following two days, Lin Xiu Ya, Yan Hao, Han Yue, and others came to his residence one after another.
After personally confirming that Lin Xiu was a Dou King, each of them had complex expressions, with envy filling their gazes.
On the third day after Lin Xiu stood up for Hu Jia, Xiao Yan finally returned.
He found Lin Xiu, and the first thing he said was a thank you, evidently aware of Lin Xiu's assistance to Hu Jia.
"Junior Brother Xiao Yan, there's no need to be polite. That's a promise I made to Headmaster Hu Gan," Lin Xiu said with a faint smile, then asked, "It's been so many days. How have you been considering our previous conversation?"
"We can trade with fire," Xiao Yan nodded straightforwardly.
Seeing this, Lin Xiu took out the Green Wood Celestial Vine and made the trade with Xiao Yan.
There were so many strands of fire that Xiao Yan couldn't produce them all at once, or it would be too draining. Additionally, Lin Xiu didn't have a place to store them.
The two agreed that Xiao Yan would come every three days to provide them.
During this period, the annual Strong Ranking Grand Competition of the inner courtyard was also about to begin.
This time, Lin Xiu did not participate.
Firstly, he had already revealed his Dou King strength, so bullying others seemed meaningless.
Secondly, considering the level of hatred towards him from the Fallen Heart Flame, even if he obtained a spot, he wouldn't be able to enter the tower.
Moreover, compared to the Fire-Body Forging of the Heartfire Projection, Lin Xiu had long accepted the Fire-Body Forging of the Fallen Heart Flame, which was many times stronger than that mere projection effect.
Most importantly, Lin Xiu now needed to cultivate the Fire Spirit to its limit to face the imminent eruption of the Fallen Heart Flame.
Although Lin Xiu didn't deliberately pay attention, he had quite a bit of knowledge about the competition.
Every day, Du Chaoping and others would come back and discuss matters related to the competition with him.
At first, everyone was quite optimistic about Lin Xiu Ya, Liu Qing, and others.
They had all been training in the inner courtyard for a long time, had decent innate talent, and were hardworking enough.
But there was one person who emerged unexpectedly, surprising everyone.
And that person is Xiao Yan.
In several consecutive battles, Xiao Yan defeated opponents stronger than himself, emerging as a strong dark horse.
If it weren't for Lin Xiu already becoming a Dou King, Xiao Yan would probably have become the most formidable newcomer in Jia Nan Academy's inner courtyard in years.
Unfortunately, with Lin Xiu's Dou King strength ahead, although Xiao Yan was outstanding, he still fell a bit short.
Moreover, with Zi Yan overseeing things, in the end, Xiao Yan only achieved second place in the competition, surpassing Lin Xiu Ya, Liu Qing, and others.
