482: Chapter 481 Competitive Martial Arts Contest 482: Chapter 481 Competitive Martial Arts Contest Hearing the words of the Institute of Extensive Learning disciple, Ye Haochuan furrowed his brows, and now, soone was coming forward to vie for the leadership.
Deep down, he naturally favored Huo ngyao, his own woman.
After all, this mining site was of utmost importance, and he could only rest easy if soone he completely trusted was in charge.
However, this disciple from the Institute of Extensive Learning appeared to have cultivation at the Postnatal Late Stage, which was on par with Huo ngyao, but since this person dared to issue a challenge, he must have so outstanding abilities and should not be underestimated.
Of course, if he himself, at the Postnatal Peak, were to step forward, victory would be a foregone conclusion.
But in doing so, once he left this place and returned to the Secular World, these people would no longer be under his control and could even turn against him.
Therefore, the best solution was still to let Huo ngyao win with her own strength, for that was the true path to power.
With this in mind, he turned his gaze towards Huo ngyao to see how she would respond.
“May I know how to address this brother from the Institute of Extensive Learning?” Huo ngyao asked with a faint smile.
“I dare not presu, my na is Xu Wei, from Mount Yin,” the disciple from the Institute of Extensive Learning said earnestly.
“Senior Brother Xu’s words are not without rit.
Without a leader, we cannot function.
We should indeed have soone who can hold the scene,” Huo ngyao said with a smile, “I have a proposal; what do you think if we decide it through a martial competition?
Whoever stands out as the champion will be our core leader.”
“Please proceed,” the crowd said thunderously.
“How about we have a martial contest?
Whoever erges as the champion can take on the mantle of our core leader.
What do you think?” Huo ngyao suggested aloud.
At that mont, He Dong spoke up loudly, “Why even have a contest?
Among us, Senior Brother Ye has the strongest power—he’s at the Postnatal Peak.
Who else among us is at that level?
No one.
Therefore, Senior Brother Ye is the undisputed core leader!”
The crowd nodded in agreent, even Xu Wei had no objections.
It seems saving everyone’s lives has indeed won their hearts!
Seeing himself beco the core leader without much effort, Ye Haochuan smiled and said, “First of all, I must declare that while I don’t mind being the core leader, I won’t be staying here permanently.
Therefore, we still need a strong leader on-site at the mining field, which requires us to compete through martial competition.”
Hearing his statent, everyone’s minds beca agitated, especially those at the Postnatal Late Stage, who were eager to try and cheered in agreent.
“Now, let’s see who is willing to join the martial competition,” Huo ngyao said as she looked around.
“I’m in!”
“Count in!”
“And !”
Before long, more than a dozen people raised their hands to indicate their participation in the martial competition for the core leadership position.
“Senior Brother Ye, with so many competitors at the Postnatal Late Stage, can Senior Sister Huo prevail?” He Dong approached Ye Haochuan and whispered.
“Heh, that’s nothing for you to worry about.” Ye Haochuan said mysteriously, “What do you say?
Let’s make a bet that Senior Sister Huo will eventually co out on top.”
He Dong’s eyebrows rose in delight, “Really?”
“Of course,” Ye Haochuan said with a smile.
Just then, Xu Wei, who had been secretly paying attention to Ye Haochuan, sensed sothing was amiss and said, “Everyone, please quiet down, I have sothing to say.”
All gradually fell silent and turned their gazes toward him.
“Since this is a martial competition, fairness is naturally important.
Everyone knows that even if one’s own strength is inadequate, with the help of a magical treasure, one can greatly enhance one’s power, and even the weak can overpower the strong.
Therefore, I believe that in this martial competition, we must rely on true skill, and not win by relying on treasures,” Xu Wei declared loudly.
True skill?
Upon hearing this, and seeing the look in his eyes when he spoke, all present frequently glanced over at Ye Haochuan, imdiately understanding that this was aid at Ye Haochuan!
Who didn’t know that Huo ngyao had an extraordinary relationship with him!
Not to ntion the Fire Dragon Blade, a top-grade talisman instrunt; if Ye Haochuan were to lend it to Huo ngyao, then who else could compete, what was there even to fight over?
Ye Haochuan, however, found it amusing to himself.
He looked at Xu Wei and thought to himself that this kid really picked the right na, Xu Wei, isn’t it just hypocrisy?
It was clearly he who was afraid that I would lend so powerful treasure to Huo ngyao yet speaking as though he was so high and mighty.
“I agree with this point, our martial competition is a comparison of true skills, true capabilities.
Winning by relying on treasures cannot reflect our true strength,” Huo ngyao stated her position.
Upon hearing this, not just Xu Wei, but the others who had decided to partake in the martial competition were secretly overjoyed.
“However, we have all been forced to swallow the Qi-Sealing Pill, I’m afraid we can’t imdiately start the martial competition…” Xu Wei hesitated to say.
“No problem, I just found the antidote from the disciples of Hellfire and I will distribute it to everyone,” Ye Haochuan chid in with a smile.
All were overjoyed.
Fan Qingyin, who had been silently watching, silently spat, What finding an antidote from the disciples of Hellfire?
You clearly had it on you all along, right?
Don’t you just not want to beco the target of everyone’s criticism?
But for Sister ngyao’s sake, this lady won’t expose your sham!
Turns out, earlier in the valley, Huo ngyao had sincerely apologized and had a heart-to-heart talk with her, which touched her and dispelled all past grievances, and they beca a pair of good sisters.
Ye Haochuan handed the antidote to Han Dazhuang and He Dong to distribute.
After everyone had swallowed the antidote, their vigor indeed returned, with everyone cheering and jumping with joy, now that their strengths had returned, there was no longer any need to be alard or afraid.
Initially, everyone wanted to start the martial competition imdiately, but Ye Haochuan smiled, “Don’t worry, don’t worry, sothing as grand as a martial competition can’t be treated carelessly.
Besides, everyone has just recovered their strength, it would be best to take a mont to regather our breath so that we can participate in the martial competition with full spirit.
How about this, let’s go down first, clean up the area, and two hours later, we can start the official competition, alright?”
“Good!” The crowd responded in unison.
Huo ngyao, who was nearby, couldn’t help but laugh at this excuse.
Wasn’t this just his way of creating an opportunity to be alone with her for dual cultivation?
But at this mont, she couldn’t wait to engage in dual cultivation with him too.
Only then could she make the final breakthrough and reach the postnatal peak, winning the competition in one fell swoop.
After that, everyone jumped out of the Strange Fire King Cauldron, Ye Haochuan also put away the Strange Fire King Cauldron, and everyone returned to the valley.
Because in the bamboo forest midway up the mountain, there was a square that was neither too large nor too small, perfectly suitable for a martial competition, all the participants had co here.
After cleaning up the bones and filth both inside and outside, the people found rooms and began to ditate and regulate their breathing.
As for those who did not participate in the martial competition, they followed Ye Haochuan’s orders and with Han Dazhuang and He Dong leading them, so kept watch at the periter while others cleaned up the corpses and debris, bustling with activity.
As for Ye Haochuan, he had already pulled Huo ngyao into the bathhouse that left him with crazy mories.
“Ah!
We’re not going to do it here, are we?” Seeing it was the bathhouse, Huo ngyao suddenly felt sowhat embarrassed.
