Chapter 252: Why Should I Be Afraid?!
Looking at Shangguan Cheng Ya, Su Yi’s pupils slightly shrank.
It was only just a Yuan Xuan Realm Seventh Grade, so what was there to be afraid of? Su Yi was also already at the Yuan Xuan Realm Sixth Grade, and from the beginning, he had never once been frightened. He was only worried that the responsibility of such magnitude was too huge.
Although Xiong Zhan wasn’t much older than him, he belonged to the same generation. If he can’t even beat someone from his own generation, he shouldn’t talk about entering the Sacred Mountain, which is so colossal in the future.
“Why should I be afraid?!”
Su Yi shouted while nodding his head. In his eyes, there was a surge of battle intent. Xiong Zhan is the most powerful person in his generation that he had to face since he began cultivation.
“Good, that is more like it.”
A smile spread on Shangguan Cheng Ya’s face. Then, she turned her head around and glanced at the dignified elder from the Hunting Tiger Tribe and the High Elder from the Mighty Bear Tribe, saying, “I think the Hunting Tiger Tribe and the Mighty Bear Tribe shouldn’t have a problem now, right?”
“Of course, Yi Su is also regarded as a person of the Ancient Spirit Village. Then it will be like this. But, if Yi Su is defeated, then within one hundred years time, the Ancient Spirit Village will not participate in the once-every-ten-years competition.”
After the dignified elder from the Hunting Tiger Tribe discussed with a few elders, he nodded his head and replied.
Obviously, these elders from the Hunting Tiger Tribe were initially a little afraid of Shangguan Cheng Ya. But, adding on that the Ancient Spirit Village will not participate in the competition for one hundred years, this brought benefits and no harm to the Hunting Tiger Tribe.
Even if the Ancient Spirit Village won, the Hunting Tiger Tribe also did not have any losses.
“Xiong Zhan, what is your opinion?”
The High Elder of the Mighty Bear Tribe lifted his head and looked at Xiong Zhan in the arena. To be safe, he still needed to ask for Xiong Zhan’s opinion.
“Based on his strength, he does not have the qualifications to challenge me, but I am willing to give him this chance!”
Xiong Zhan had an ugly expression as he had been ignored.
When that brat came to the arena, he did not seem to have placed him on his heart.
However, feeling the aura on this Yi Su’s body before him, it did not appear to be on par with his. He initially also wanted to seek a chance to take revenge for his younger brother, Xiong Lie’s severe injuries, so Xiong Zhan would naturally not let go of this chance.
Glancing at Su Yi, Xiong Zhan continued word by word with a cold expression as he said, “No need for my mount to attack; I alone will be enough!”
“They are going to battle!”
“Yi Su versus Xiong Zhan. I wonder who will win and who will lose!”
“That Yi Su does not appear to be old. Does he really have the strength to contend against Xiong Zhan and his mount?”
“The Ancient Spirit Village’s bet this time is not small!”
The surrounding strong cultivators of the Hunting Tiger Tribe and the Mighty Bear Tribe started to discuss softly as the bet was not small.
No one doubted Xiong Zhan’s words, and no one thought that Xiong Zhan was arrogant.
Based on Xiong Zhan’s gifted talent, it had been a long time since such a talented person had emerged.
“Okay, as promised, the Ancient Spirit Village will need to defeat Xiong Zhan and his mount at the same time!”
The High Elder of the Mighty Bear Tribe glanced at Shangguan Cheng Ya and gritted his teeth. He knew that he had no choice but to agree while he also believed in Xiong Zhan’s strength.
That kid from the outside appeared strange, but no one in the Mighty Bear Tribe felt he was strong enough to battle the Scarlet Searing Raging Bear. Furthermore, he had to confront the Scarlet Searing Raging Bear alongside Xiong Zhan. That was clearly an impossible thing to achieve.
“Of course, every word of this old lady’s has always carried weight!”
Shangguan Cheng Ya nodded her head and looked at Su Yi with a smile on her rosy cheeks, saying, “Go, just do your best!”
When the words landed, Shangguan Cheng Ya’s foot stepped forward. Her footsteps were evidently soft and slow, yet her figure flashed while that slightly hunched body was already in the Ancient Spirit Village’s lineup.
“What a fast speed. It seems a little similar to Shrink The Earth Into Inches…”
Su Yi’s eyes moved. The village head’s speed caused Su Yi to be in thought, as it seemed a little similar to Shrink The Earth Into Inches of the Hundred Transformation Steps.
Only when it was performed by the village head, Shangguan Cheng Ya, was it this terrifying.
“Xiong Zhan, battle according to the rules!”
As Shangguan Cheng Ya got off the arena, the High Elder of the Mighty Bear Tribe also spoke.
However, the High Elder’s remarks had hidden implications. He was warning Xiong Zhan not to be irresponsible, and the interpretation of the rules meant that he had to join hands with the Scarlet Searing Raging Bear.
“Yes, High Elder!”
On the back of the Scarlet Searing Raging Bear, Xiong Zhan bowed down and nodded his head.
“After discussion, the final decision is that Yi Su has the qualification to challenge. The rules are as per normal: no attacking too severely on purpose while Yi Su must challenge both Xiong Zhan and his mount, the Scarlet Searing Raging Bear, at the same time. The final winner will also be the winner of this competition. Do you guys understand?”
The elder from the Mighty Bear Tribe that has been hosting the competition once again spoke. His tone was calm, yet it resounded in the entire square. His gaze intentionally and unintentionally kept sizing up Su Yi from afar.
“Understood!”
Su Yi and Xiong Zhan nodded their heads at the same time.
“Then, I will now declare that your battle starts now!”
The tone of the elderly became slightly heavier, and his voice resounded in the square.
“Boom!”
Following as the elderly declared the start of the battle, the auras in the entire square also unknowingly trembled.
“Sha sha…”
All of a sudden, the surrounding gazes in the square unitedly ‘sha sha’ landed onto both Su Yi and Xiong Zhan.
“This is the first challenge!”
There were gazes filled with anticipation and nervousness, especially from the people from the Ancient Spirit Village, as they held their breaths and watched. Not mentioning Shangguan Chen Feng and the rest of the youngsters, even some middle-aged people were also nervously clenching their fists tightly.
It must be known that this battle concerned the future of the Ancient Spirit Village, as it was a grand gamble.
“Humph, just that brat, and he actually wants to challenge Brother Xiong Zhan and the Scarlet Searing Raging Bear. He is seeking humiliation!”
“Overestimating his ability!”
In the Mighty Bear Tribe, many people did not mind as their gazes watched Su Yi from afar with ridicule and disdain.
Ignoring the surrounding gazes, Su Yi, Xiong Zhan, and that Scarlet Searing Raging Bear glanced at each other from afar.
At the moment, the battle intent was brewing and boiling inside the two youngsters’s chests.
“Howl!”
The Scarlet Searing Raging Bear’s bell-shaped eyes looked at Su Yi from high ground with a ferocious, striking light. The airwaves rocked the surrounding air and attacked Su Yi with a single howl, causing dust to fly in the arena and his robe to flutter.
But Su Yi stood unwavering, and even his eyes had not blinked once.
“Brat, I have to say that you are notably brave; however, sometimes bravery is useless!”
Xiong Zhan gazed at Su Yi as his armor shone with dark black earth element Yuan Qi, generating a frenzied aura that appeared to be related to his cultivation method, exhibiting some overpowering and bold attributes.
Su Yi’s expression remained unchanged as he glanced at Xiong Zhan, who was atop the Scarlet Searing Raging Bear’s shoulder, and murmured, “Just attack together. I hope you’re significantly stronger than your little brother. Otherwise, I will be a little disappointed.”
“Yi Su, this brat. He is really…”
As Yi Su spoke, several of the powerful elderly cultivators in the Ancient Spirit Village exchanged glances. This brat was so arrogant. Could it be that he was truly unafraid of Xiong Zhan?
It must be known that there must be no mistakes, as the entire hope of the Ancient Spirit Village depended on this brat.
