It wasn’t just a single core disciple that Han Ba was fighting today.
There were three matches with how big the bracket was, so he had to fight two more core disciples.
Those core disciples easily beat their opponents who were just inner sect disciples and made it to the next round.
However, when they faced Han Ba...
"Junior Brother Han, you should give up..."
That was all that they were able to say each ti.
The third one’s voice even trembled when he said this, showing that he wasn’t even confident about what he was saying.
Even if he wanted to show confidence, it really was hard for him after seeing what Han Ba did with the other core disciples.
The strength that Han Ba demonstrated went far beyond what they thought he was capable of.
It was a coincidence if it happened once, but a second ti and even a third ti...it was hard to consider it a coincidence once it happened this many tis.
Once it happened this many tis, the only thing that they could do was consider this a fact.
It was just that no one could understand how Han Ba had suddenly beco this powerful.
The only explanation that they could think of was...
"Has he been hiding his power this entire ti? Has he just been waiting for the right ti to make himself famous?"
When they thought of this, they couldn’t help cursing that they had fallen for his plot. After all, it wasn’t as if they could back down now that they had already registered to take part in the tournant.
The only thing that they could do was find a way to defeat Han Ba.
For these core disciples, they were even thinking about unsealing so of their secret moves or getting so kind of secret weapon just in case.
But none of that mattered for Han Ba.
"They’re weaker than I thought." Han Ba said with a trace of disappointnt in his voice when Lin Fan t up with him that evening.
When he heard this, Lin Fan couldn’t help revealing a bitter smile.
After all, if the other core disciples were to see Han Ba when he said this, they would have wanted to punch him in the face. The way that he said it really was as if he was arrogantly looking down on them.
However, that was the last thing that Han Ba was doing.
It wasn’t as if Han Ba was looking down on them, it was just that he was actually disappointed that they weren’t stronger than this. After all, the main reason that Han Ba had been doing all of this was to gain experience from fighting them to make himself stronger.
If they weren’t strong enough to pressure him, then they wouldn’t be able to help him gain experience and beco stronger.
If they weren’t able to help him beco stronger, then this would all be a waste of ti.
Only I didn’t get a chance to talk to Han Ba to cheer him up in the end.
It was soone else who took this responsibility and the way that she did this was different from how normal people would do it.
"It’s all your fault." Ye Qing Huan said before raising her fist.
Han Ba had still been thinking about the results of the tournant when he suddenly saw Ye Qing Huan raise her fist at him like this. He couldn’t understand why she was doing this, but there was nothing that he could do about this.
After all, Ye Qing Huan was just much stronger than Han Ba.
Even if he wanted to dodge out of the way, it was hard for him to do so.
So with a bitter smile, the only thing that he could do was let her punch him even though he had no idea why she was doing this.
Lin Fan couldn’t exactly tell Han Ba that it was because of a mistake that Ye Qing Huan made that he was being punched by her. So the only thing that he could do was watch as this happened.
It was just Ye Qing Huan getting over her embarrassnt of what she said earlier.
From the way that Ye Qing Huan punched Han Ba, it seed like she was doing what she could to make sure it hurt for him. It really seed like she wasn’t holding back at all when she punched him since there were bruises and welts that soon appeared on his face.
She really didn’t seem to hold back at all when she was venting her anger like this.
Of course since it wasn’t Lin Fan that was suffering, he didn’t actually say anything to stop her.
But that caused Han Ba to look at Lin Fan as if he had been betrayed.
The only thing that Lin Fan thought in response to this was, "It’s better you than ."
...
"What happened to him?"
It was only natural that everyone who saw his injuries would be confused why he was like this.
When Han Ba finished his fights yesterday, there wasn’t a single visible injury on him. They were certain that he would have suffered so small injuries during the fight, but they didn’t think that it would affect him much.
They certainly didn’t expect the injuries to appear on the surface like this.
So there was no doubt that there was another reason why he had these injuries on his face now.
Of course, no one knew without actually asking Han Ba the reason for this and even when so people asked, it didn’t seem like Han Ba was willing to share the reason. The only response that they received from him was a wry smile.
So no one understood why Han Ba was injured.
However, for the core disciple that was the first one to face Han Ba today, this was actually good news for him.
If Han Ba was injured, then that ant that it should be much easier for him to take Han Baa down.
Only this didn’t happen in the end.
Instead of it becoming easier for that core disciple...it actually beca harder.
"How are you doing this?" The core disciple couldn’t understand what was happening in front of his face. After all, this really was just too hard to believe and he wouldn’t have believed it if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes.
That was because Han Ba’s wounds were healing in front of his eyes.
It wasn’t as if those wounds healed right away, it was that his wounds slowly healed while they were fighting.
It did seem like Han Ba was weaker compared to yesterday when they started fighting, but he slowly seed to gain more and more power as ti passed. It was as if there was sothing that was activating inside of him the more he fought.
That was the power of his physique.
It seed that being injured like this was the catalyst to provoke his physique into activating.
When his physique activated, it actually made him stronger as he started recovering from those injuries all over his body.
As more and more of those injuries were healed, he gained more and more power.
Only it wasn’t that he was just recovering the power that he lost from being injured, it was that he was gaining more power as his physique activated. While healing him, his physique also seed to beco stronger while he was fighting.
Han Ba seed to realize the change that ca over him, but there was a bitter look that was on his face when he recognized this. After all, he didn’t want to admit that it was because of those injuries that his physique was becoming stronger.
It would an that a certain soone had already known everything and had done this on purpose.
At the sa ti, if she had done it on purpose...then it would an that he would suffer the sa fate later on since it would make him stronger.
As Lin Fan watched all of this, there was a strange look that appeared on his face.
He was one of the few people that knew the real reason why Han Ba had been covered in injuries. At the sa ti, he could also tell that it was because of those injuries that Han Ba was becoming stronger.
After watching for a while, he couldn’t help looking at Ye Qing Huan with a strange look.
Ye Qing Huan didn’t seem concerned about Han Ba’s fight the entire ti, it was as if she had already foresaw that this would be the conclusion of the fight. It seed that she knew what she had been doing all along.
That was why Lin Fan didn’t know what to feel about all of this.
In the end, Lin Fan decided that this wasn’t exactly a bad thing.
After all, Ye Qing Huan had made Han Ba stronger and this would help them achieve their plan.
So as long as she was helping them, he wouldn’t say anything about this.
The only thing that he could do was offer a silent prayer for Han Ba.
Since this thod had proved effective, there was no doubt that Ye Qing Huan would be using the sa thod in the later stages. The stronger that Han Ba beca, the more of a guarantee that their plan would succeed.
While he was fighting, Han Ba couldn’t help feeling a chill run down his spine.
It seed that he had a premonition about what was to co.
