Chapter 145: Still Participating?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
That’s right, an outstanding genius like Li Ming was the target of all the major factions fighting to rope him in.
Putting everything else aside, if he went too far and chased Li Ming away with reason, he would probably not let go of Tian Song Zi, who was an expert who had a relationship with Divine Will Sect Sect.
“What should we do?” Shi Feng Rong revealed a worried expression. Just now, they were still calculating. Since Li Ming was also a greedy person, they would use benefits to tempt him. However, Li Ming had suddenly made a fortune. Even Pei Xuan () and the others envied him for having so many Spiritual Crystals.
The current Li Ming had become the richest man in Divine Will Sect!
He wanted to rope her in, but with his meager wealth, it was simply impossible.
Pei Xuan couldn’t help but rub his aching eyebrows.
In the next few days, Li Ming walked as if he was walking on cotton. There was only one question in his heart.
How was he going to spend it?
However, he quickly threw this question to the back of his mind. Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan’s match was just around the corner. Li Zhengxuan’s opponent was a sword cultivator named Zuo Lin. He was a pretty strong sword cultivator and could be ranked in the middle of the list of experts.
Having tasted the sweetness, Li Ming was just about to let Li Fengying place a bet, but the frightened Li Ying Feng waved her hand desperately. She felt that her heart could no longer withstand such a big bet.
Li Ming had no choice but to lead Lin Xue to a few big gambling dens to place their bets.
The current Li Ming was already an influential figure in East Floating. The workers in the gambling den recognized him with a glance.
After going to two gambling houses, Li Ming had to ask Xue Lin Xue to place a bet for him.
Li Ming believed that the person who could win the most was none other than Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan (Li)! Therefore, he did not stand on ceremony and directly bet a large sum of money on his senior brother. However, he also restrained himself to avoid unnecessary trouble.
However, he brought Lin Xue to all the gambling dens in East Floating City and bet on Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan (Li) winning.
But in the gambling dens, Li Zhengxuan’s winning rate was extremely low. They were even more confident in Li Zhengxuan because the gambling dens were all local forces. Moreover, the news of the phenomenon of heaven and earth when Li Zhengxuan foundation establishment realm also spread like wildfire.
As expected, Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan (Li) defeated Zuo Lin and won the first round.
In this battle, the strength that Li Zhengxuan had displayed had caught everyone’s attention. And in this battle, Li Zhengxuan’s ranking had risen even higher, steadily squeezing into the top ten. It was as if he was going to fight for the championship.
Although the odds weren’t high, Li Ming’s foundation was so strong that he won another ten pieces of Fourth-grade Spiritual Crystals.
” With Spiritual Crystals, it’s much easier to earn Spiritual Crystals.” Li Ming sighed.
Senior Brother Li Zhengxuan had won. He was no longer interested in the following matches.
Although he had not recovered from his injuries, he was still thinking about how to spend Spiritual Crystals!
For Li Ming, there was a very serious problem in front of him. How could he spend so many Spiritual Crystals?
For him, it was not an exaggeration to describe it as serious. If he did not use up all these Spiritual Crystals before the tablet spirit woke up, he would not get even a single one.
Originally, his original intention was to not let the 300 pieces of Third Grade Spiritual Crystals fall into the hands of the tablet spirit (). Now, it seemed that the situation had not improved and he had to spend more money.
He had to spend it! Before the tablet spirit ( ) awakens!
Li Ming would definitely fly into a rage if the tablet spirit ( ) got his hands on so many Spiritual Crystals. In order to prevent the worst outcome from happening, Li Ming made a decisive move.
However, before he could leave, he was summoned by the Sect Master to the Divine Hall.
During this period of time, everyone was paying attention to him. He had to be cautious and decided to keep a low profile. It would be troublesome if he made the sect master and the others unhappy.
“Little Ming.” Yang Kai saw this scene and suddenly smiled. “I heard you say that you don’t plan to participate in the next competition?”
“Sect Master, it’s not that I don’t want to, but I can’t do it. As you can see, my injuries have yet to recover. I don’t know who I’ll meet in the next round, but it’ll definitely be a Golden Core expert.”
“If you lose, then you lose. If you get injured again, it will add insult to injury. It will have a huge impact on your future cultivation. I think that this Sword Test Conference is a form of training for me. I have gained a lot this time. If I hurt my foundation because I want to win, wouldn’t I be neglecting the essentials and pursuing the trifles?”
The Sect Leader gave Li Ming a meaningful smile. Li Ming suddenly had a bad feeling.
“You’re very thoughtful. Very good. But now, the situation has changed. For some reason, one person has forfeited. Therefore, one person will have a bye in this round.”
“Senior Tian Song Zi is very appreciative of your performance, so he gave this spot to you. You must work hard and not disappoint him. As for your injuries, don’t worry. Your master won’t let you fight while you’re injured.’ Li Ming was dumbfounded. He still wanted to participate?
How could they fight?
The battle between him and An Yang was so dazzling and successful in everyone’s eyes. However, no one knew how much effort he had put in and how lucky he was to obtain the final victory.
He had heard about An Yang’s past battles from Fu Dong and figured out An Yang’s weaknesses. In addition to the intense pressure that An Yang had felt from the bet, he had used all sorts of methods. It could be said that he had used all his strength to win by a narrow margin.
The gap between Foundation Establishment and Golden Core was too big. If it was any other contestant, he would have been finished long ago.
Other than yin fire bead, a killer move that could not be used in public, he used all the other methods.
The sect leader actually wanted him to compete? How could they compete?
He was at a loss. Did the sect leader really think that it would be easy for him to defeat a jindan xiuzhe?
It shouldn’t be! He raised his head and looked at the sect leader, shaking his head in his heart.
Just as he was deep in thought, he heard the sect leader say with a smile,”You should be prepared.”
Li Ming walked out of Divine Will Hall dejectedly. He had yet to come back to his senses.
A bye? How could such a thing happen?
This was the last thing Li Ming wanted to hear. When he heard this voice, his entire body froze. When did this guy wake up?
However, he quickly reacted. From the tablet spirit’s voice, he could hear a trace of urgency. It needed yin beads. Without thinking, he took out five Yin Pearls and stuffed them into the tablet spirit’s hand. The tablet spirit snatched them and disappeared without a trace.
Only then did Li Ming feel his heart thumping non-stop. Damn it, the tablet spirit () was about to wake up!
No! He had to spend all the Spiritual Crystals as soon as possible!
Li Ming felt his butt heat up and quickly urged Silly Bird. He felt his heart pounding and his mouth dry.
Before the competition, he hadn’t even seen a single Spiritual Crystal of the Fourth Grade, let alone 190 Spiritual Crystals of the Fourth Grade. The thought that such a large sum of money might not be his made Li Ming feel extremely uncomfortable..
