Leveling Up And Becoming Undefeatable

He was played!

Blatantly being played with!

Even if Bai Qi could endure, he couldn’t help raising his voice, “You… Lord Ao, a person of character, needs to keep their word. You just said you would forgive Luo Tian, but now you are continuing with the bet. Why are you doing this?”

He was angry.

Ao Sheng sneered before saying playfully, “When did I say I was going to revoke the bet? I only said that I would forgive the kid for his offense. Bai Qi, saying that I am a person who doesn’t keep his word is a big insult to my character. Now, get out of here, or else I will send you three out in a lying position. Humph~!”

He was breaking all pretenses and turning hostile.

Ao Sheng played the Bai family.

This was 400,000 xuan coins. This was all the money the Bai family could amass for now. It usually took the Bai family a few years to save this kind of money. Many Elders were already unhappy that Bai Qi wanted so many xuan coins to save Luo Tian. Now, he couldn’t save Luo Tian and pretty much wasted all that money. Once the Elders find out, this will probably cause a public outrage.

But Bai Qi didn’t care what the Bai family Elders would say. He was only worried about Luo Tian.

Now that they have offended Ao Sheng, it will be absolutely impossible for anyone representing the Bai family to pass the first round of the examination.

Ao Sheng can decide whether they lived or died!

Bai Lingling was clenching her teeth, wishing she could slap Ao Sheng’s old face. She then said ruthlessly, “In that case, return the money back to us. Let’s see who is going to win or lose at sunset. Just hope that you won’t lose then, or else you won’t know where to put your old face anymore.”

Bai Xiong stepped forward and shouted, “Give us back the money!”

However, how can money already in his pocket be taken out?

Ao Sheng’s gaze darkened while anger contorted his face, “Money? What money? Did I ever receive any money from you guys? Bai Qi, you had better teach your children properly, or else I would be happy to teach them the meaning of respect. Humph~!”

“You…”

“…”

Before the siblings could say anything, Bai Qi held them both back. He knew very well that it would be impossible to get the money back now. He knew they had been tricked and played with. He just never imagined Ao Sheng would be such a sinister individual. Bai Qi then shouted, “You two, shut your mouths!”

Right after that, Bai Qi forced out a smile and said, “We have disturbed my lord. We shall leave now.”

After saying that, Bai Qi pulled the two fuming siblings out of the courtyard. He then lectured, “Don’t say another word! We will talk about it at home!”

Bai Qi could feel a trace of killing intent coming from Ao Sheng.

Ao Sheng was a person of the Misty Cloud Academy, someone the Bai family couldn’t afford to offend. No one would care if he killed a few people who dared to insult an examiner of the Misty Cloud Academy. People may even cheer on, saying it was a good kill.

Ao Sheng took out the 400,000 xuan coins and patted the bundle with his hands. He then started chuckling when the yellow-robed old man walked out of the house. “Brother Huang, I told you that someone will be giving us free money.”

“Hahaha…”

The yellow-robed old man said with a smile, “Brother Ao, what a brilliant move. You were able to take the Bai family’s money and not cancel the bet. You will also be able to get that kid’s divine sword. This is basically shooting down two birds with a single arrow. My admirations to you, hahaha…”

Ao Sheng replied, “Since the Bai family took out 400,000 xuan coins in order to cancel the bet, that means the kid has no hope of breaking through. We are both going to win. I will have my divine sword, and you will get the Ephemeral Sword. Hahaha… Just thinking about this is making me happy. Let’s go to the Skywatch Tower tonight, my treat!”

“Hahaha…”

The courtyard was filled with joyous laughter.

—————-

After leaving the courtyard, Bai Lingling couldn’t hold it anymore and said unhappily, “Father, we can’t let this go just like that. That old bastard is too sinister!”

Bai Xiong added, “I really want to kill him.”

Bai Qi frowned as he said, “You two cannot act recklessly. You guys aren’t his match. His cultivation has reached the peak of the Martial Void realm, where even I am not his match.”

“The Misty Cloud Academy is a colossal existence. We can only admit defeat this time.”

There was no other way because they were no match.

What can you do about it?

Most importantly, Ao Sheng was the examiner for the selection competition. He can pretty much decide on everything. Unless he dies… But in reality, not to mention Towering Cloud City, even the number one city of the Middle Continent, the Misty Cloud City, no one would dare to easily kill an examiner of the Misty Cloud Academy.

No matter which direction you looked from, the Bai family was fully suppressed.

This was reality. This was the suppression due to the difference in strength.

How could Bai Qi not feel angry after being played like that? But he was very clear that once he made a move, their family of three would definitely die there. Don’t forget, there was another examiner in the courtyard, too.

The other examiner was also an expert in the Martial Void realm.

Bai Lingling asked, “What should we do about it? What about Luo Tian? He is going to lose this bet, and the outcome might be his death. That guy will not spare Luo Tian. Or we could say the Hai family will not spare him.”

The Hai family was obviously behind all of this.

If it weren’t for the Hai family’s interference, Luo Tian would have registered his name already.

How could Bai Qi not know all of this? He gave a long sigh while looking up at the sun starting to come down. He then said, “He can only rely on himself now. I just hope that he can create miracles.”

Even though he knew this was impossible, he had done everything he could. Luo Tian can only rely on himself.

Bai Xiong suddenly said, “I believe in master. He can definitely do it and break through to the Condensation Element realm. Ao Sheng will lose. At that time, he wouldn’t know where to put his old face anymore. I really want to see the boss slap his face soon!”

Bai Lingling was filled with anticipation as she said, “I can’t wait to see that scene too.”

Bai Qi smiled before saying to himself, “Luo Tian, can you create miracles?”

———–

In the depths of the Black Wind Cave, Luo Tian was covered in blood, and the Fire Qilin by his side looked like it was about to die. It only had a tiny bit of health remaining.

Around him were the bodies of many Corpse Eating Rats.

Luo Tian was panting for air. He glanced at his experience bar and said to himself, “I am only short of one Corpse Eating Rat in order to level up. Ao Sheng, I can’t hold back anymore and want to slap your old face right now.”

He heavily exhaled.

Luo Tian swallowed over ten pills and felt his yuan energy recover slightly. He looked at the Fire Qilin, who was covered in injuries, and said apologetically, “Brother, accompany me for a while longer. When I win the money, I will unseal the Regeneration Skill, and I will be able to heal you then.”

As long as one has a healing technique, then they can heal their pets.

At that time, there was no need to worry about the Fire Qilin having too few health points.

As if it understood, the Fire Qilin rushed out with large strides. It kept spraying out thick, hellish flames, and the dark cave became a little brighter.

Luo Tian suddenly looked at the depths of the cave with shock in his eyes.
