I Really Have Been Poisoned After All

Would the Dou Emperor ahead dare dismount and fight?

No!

Your horse isn't as fast as mine!

The words kept surfacing in Xiao Bai's mind, repeating endlessly like a computer infected with a virus.

"Damn, damn, damn! I really have been poisoned after all!"

Xiao Bai could not help shaking his head, as though trying to fling those nonsensical words out of his mind.

Watching Xiao Yan flee desperately below, how could Xiao Bai miss such a perfect chance to beat a drowning dog?

Without waiting for Xiao Yan to make any counterattack, he struck again swiftly, seemingly determined to knock Xiao Yan out of the arena in one go.

The spinning disc in the air kept smashing down toward Xiao Yan.

Each time Xiao Yan blocked it, the disc flew back into the air to gather strength. Once it had accumulated enough power, it would smash down at Xiao Yan again.

After this continued for quite some time, Xiao Yan could no longer endure it.

As the most talented member of the Xiao Family's younger generation in the past, when had he ever been beaten so badly that he could not fight back at all?

Even though he was only at Stage Three of Dou Qi now, Xiao Yan believed that he would certainly return to his peak one day. He was not someone some random clown could provoke.

Yet the truth was that he had been slapped hard in the face, and his opponent even wanted to push him around. That was something he could not tolerate.

It was an enormous humiliation!

After Xiao Yan blasted the Dou Qi disc in the air away once more, he did not flee again. Instead, he took the opportunity to gather Dou Qi.

Just as the Mystic Seal was about to strike Xiao Yan, a wild lion's head appeared out of thin air. Then, the lion's head let out a furious roar.

The Great Elder's expression immediately darkened in the stands, because he recognized it as the Clan Leader's Dou Technique.

Seeing this, his face darkened further. He turned to Xiao Zhan beside him and said in dissatisfaction, "Clan Leader, isn't this somewhat against the rules? How could Xiao Yan be qualified to learn Roar of the Mad Lion?"

Facing the Great Elder's aggressive questioning, Xiao Zhan did not get angry. He merely smiled calmly.

"Great Elder, you worry too much. Roar of the Mad Lion is available in the Dou Ji Pavilion. Whether one can master it depends on one's own ability. My son Xiao Yan merely succeeded in cultivating it first. That is his own capability."

Hearing this, the Great Elder, who had wanted to say more, swallowed his words.

Because he had already understood that Xiao Zhan had put the Dou Technique out for everyone to cultivate for the sake of his son.

At that thought, the Great Elder's heart grew heated.

Didn't that mean he also had a chance to cultivate it?

Though it might cost him something, as an elder of the clan, he could afford that price.

Thinking of this, the people around them could not help feeling a trace of pity for Xiao Bai on the stage. At the same time, another kind of emotion rose within them.

This meant that they too could cultivate Roar of the Mad Lion in the future. It was one of the Xiao Family's rare and powerful Dou Techniques.

The people below the stage were overjoyed, while the battle above continued.

No one paid attention to the complicated emotions of those below the stage. Everyone focused on the fight.

The miniature lion's head formed by Xiao Yan's Dou Technique let out a roar, and the enormous disc in the air shook violently as if it had been struck by some invisible force.

Fine lines like a spiderweb suddenly appeared across the disc.

Crack, crack, crack...

As more and more web-like cracks appeared, they rapidly spread across the entire disc.

Finally, before everyone's astonished eyes, it collapsed and disintegrated.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan burst into laughter. The frustration in his heart vanished instantly, replaced by joy.

"Haha... Xiao Bai, Xiao Bai, let's see what other tricks you have to deal with my Dou Technique! This time, I'll make you pay!"

Xiao Yan laughed wildly, venting his current delight without restraint.

After all, as a transmigrator, he had to save face.

Yet not long ago, he had been beaten into fleeing like a rat with its head tucked in, and in front of so many people at that. He had been utterly humiliated.

But just now, he had shattered his opponent's attack. At last, he had vented some of his anger, and his mood improved considerably.

Looking at Xiao Yan's smug expression, Xiao Bai merely watched him coldly without saying a word. However, his hands did not pause in the slightest as he kept hurling newly condensed discs at Xiao Yan.

During their continuous exchanges, Xiao Bai's disc was shattered once again.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan laughed even more wildly.

"Hahaha, it's useless! Xiao Bai, you can never defeat me. Just admit defeat!"

Looking at Xiao Yan like this, Xiao Bai found it somewhat amusing. He said with faint mockery, "Xiao Yan, you only dispersed one of my Dou Techniques, and you're already this happy? If that's all it takes, then I'm truly a little disappointed in you."

"What? You're disappointed in me? You..."

For a moment, Xiao Yan's smile froze on his face. Then rage surged within him, seemingly ready to burn away the last shred of reason in his heart.

"You're courting death!"

With an angry roar, Xiao Yan charged straight at Xiao Bai.

Watching Xiao Yan rush toward him after losing his reason, Xiao Bai's expression remained calm.

"Fine, then let me show you the results of my cultivation!"

After speaking, Xiao Bai ignored the charging Xiao Yan and simply formed hand seals on his own.

As the speed of his hand seals increased, corresponding changes appeared in the sky.

There had originally been only one disc in the sky, but as Xiao Bai's hand seals changed, an even larger ring appeared around the first disc and began rotating in the opposite direction, enclosing the disc within it.

From afar, it looked like a massive millstone, its surface covered in wondrous patterns and filled with a mysterious beauty.

Under Xiao Bai's control, the huge millstone flashed with light. Finally, the light condensed, turning it into a small sun in the sky.

Just as Xiao Yan was about to reach Xiao Bai, the small sun shot out streams of light like countless spears, piercing toward Xiao Yan.

By then, it was too late for Xiao Yan to dodge. He could only condense another lion's head to block the attack.

The spears of light slammed heavily into the lion's head. Before Xiao Yan's stunned gaze, they shattered Mad Lion Fury and then struck his body.

Pfft~

After being blasted away, Xiao Yan crashed heavily onto the ground. Before he could get up, he could not help coughing up a mouthful of blood.

Everyone else who saw this was shocked pale.

How was this possible?

Xiao Zhan suddenly stood up in the stands and muttered, "Mystic Seal... the second level of Mystic Seal..."

For a moment, he seemed unable to believe it. "But how is this possible?"

The others around him also heard the Clan Leader's cry of alarm, and all wore expressions of disbelief.

The Mystic Seal had not been in the family's Dou Ji Pavilion for only a day or two. Not only was it extremely difficult to cultivate, but even those who had successfully cultivated it had only reached the first level.

Of course, this was not because the Xiao Family's members were all useless. Rather, this Dou Technique was incomplete.

It was said that when this Dou Technique had been fully cultivated in the past, it could manifest seven layers of discs. Its attacks were endlessly varied, and its power was immense.
