While Nangong Xian'er was feeling extremely awkward, it was finally Wang Hao's turn to be randomly selected to go on stage for the competition.
Wang Hao's departure finally relieved Nangong Xian'er, who had been incredibly embarrassed. She was truly mortified just now.
She hadn't thought too much about it beforehand, only wanting to get a little revenge on that guy, forgetting that it was also part of her bathwater.
Although her body had undergone a transformation after her successful cultivation, becoming spotless and free from the need for grains, leaving her perfectly round and flawless inside and out, she still felt quite embarrassed.
At the same time, Wang Hao looked at his opponent today and couldn't help but laugh.
Because his opponent this time was blind, relying entirely on his powerful senses to fight, and this type of enemy was most easily countered by his concealment techniques.
However, Wang Hao did not defeat him immediately, after all, the opponent's strength was not weak, and was even comparable to Ye Shuanghua and the other women, obviously also from a top-level force.
Such a person undoubtedly possesses a great deal of unique skills passed down through generations; one must guide them to reveal all of their knowledge.
And so, Wang Hao began a unique battle, fighting his opponent as if he were toying with him.
"That kid's name is so arrogant!"
On the main stand, Great Emperor Li Daozong of Huaxia picked up the list of contestants presented by the eunuch, flipped to the page where Wang Hao was registered, and couldn't help but twitch his face when he saw the arrogant and infuriating name.
Are all young people these days so reckless?
The Carefree King Chen Zhan, equally intrigued, glanced sideways and couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his eye.
Young people these days are so arrogant!
Yesterday, that kid's superb concealment technique piqued his interest, and today, seeing the name on the roster, it's clear that the reputation is well-deserved!
It's quite remarkable that someone could grow up without being beaten to death while bearing that title!
At the same time, a dashing and arrogant young man walked over slowly and sat down next to Nangong Xian'er, in the seat that Wang Hao had previously occupied.
" Xian'er, it's been so long! Have you missed your brother?"
Leaning back in his chair, the dashing young man stared intently at Nangong Xian'er.
Of course, he wasn't after Nangong Xian'er's beauty, but rather her special status and position within the Nangong Household Clan and the Desire Dao.
If one can win them over, it will be equivalent to gaining the support of the Desire Dao and the Nangong Household Clan, which will greatly benefit one's chances of becoming the sect's holy son and even succeeding as sect leader in the future.
Nangong Xian'er, who was initially disgusted by the arrival of the dashing young man, suddenly had a sudden idea. She secretly picked up Wang Hao's extra-large water bottle and poured a cup of body-tempering medicine.
"Brother Xiang Ba, of course I've missed you! Here, have a cup of tea to soothe your throat!"
" Xian'er..."
Xian'er's enthusiastic demeanor, especially her adoring and loving gaze, stirred Xiang Ba's heart. Without thinking much, he took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp.
He didn't care about the tea, since he had just seen the guy drink a cup, so there was obviously nothing wrong with it.
But the medicine took effect shortly after he drank it, turning Xiang Ba's originally handsome face into a hideous and distorted ghost-like figure. Sisi strange odor gradually emanated from his lower body, and he collapsed to the ground, foaming at the mouth and convulsing uncontrollably.
Who is this guy?
Just then, seeing that his opponent had run out of new moves and quickly ended the fight, Wang Hao jumped down and looked at the guy lying on the ground foaming at the mouth, as if he had an epileptic seizure. He couldn't help but look at Nangong Xian'er and the other girls with a puzzled expression.
"I don't know! This guy probably came over to chat with us, but I don't know why he suddenly had a seizure."
With an innocent and adorable expression, Nangong Xian'er simultaneously showed disgust as she got up and dragged Wang Hao to sit down a short distance away.
Ye Shuanghua and the other girls looked at Xiang Ba, who had just lost control of his bladder, with disdain. Xiang Shengnan even kicked him in exasperation.
Xiang Ba was her cousin and one of the candidates for the Holy Son of the Muddling Heavenly Dao generation.
They never expected this guy to be so pathetic, losing control of his bladder in public because of a cup of medicine. He's really disgraced the Xiang Household.
Wang Hao, who had been dragged away by Nangong Xian'er, didn't bother with the guy. After the next pair of contestants came on stage, he turned his attention to them and watched them intently.
Although he didn't know the guy's identity, he could tell that the other person had been drugged by his body-tempering potion.
It should be noted that although the body tempering elixir has miraculous effects, it is only effective for cultivators at the first, second, and third stages. Once a cultivator breaks through the Third Tier and reaches the Fourth Tier, it will lose its effectiveness.
Although the effects have disappeared, the side effects remain.
In other words, that guy endured the pain of the body-tempering potion, but his physical body didn't improve at all; he was just suffering for nothing.
Xiang Shengnan other three women were randomly selected to participate in today's competition. As soon as the Douluo I ended, they hurriedly left the competition venue and returned to the Listening to Rain Pavilion to cultivate.
Although the side effects of that body-tempering medicinal bath were terrible, its effects were equally miraculous. They planned to accelerate their cultivation as quickly as possible to improve their physical strength.
The pressure from the prodigies of various forces in the competition was considerable, and they themselves were not the strongest among the younger generation of the six evil paths.
Furthermore, since they are all under twenty years old, they are at a significant disadvantage in a competition where the age limit is thirty. To achieve a good ranking, they must improve their skills as soon as possible.
Although the body-tempering medicinal bath can only be done once a day at most, otherwise the body will not be able to handle it, they have other things to do in the evening and must set aside their evening time.
The day's competition came to an end. Wang Hao and Nangong Xian'er, who had been accompanying him, returned to the Listening to Rain Pavilion. Then, Nangong Xian'er was dragged away by Ye Shuanghua and the other four women who had been waiting impatiently.
"Start!"
Ye Shuanghua, the leader of the group, spoke up, sat cross-legged on the soft couch, placed her palm on Nangong Xian'er's shoulder, and used the dual cultivation method of the Formless Divine Art to transfer her own true energy into Nangong Xian'er's body, using the Dragon Baleful Intent within her body to temper it.
Although they cannot improve their true qi cultivation level for the time being in order to unlock greater potential, they can continuously refine it to increase its purity, which will be of great benefit in the future.
It is important to know that True Essence is transformed from True Qi, and the quality of True Qi often determines the quality of True Essence after transformation.
Therefore, the disciples of these top sects often stay at the Peak Third Tier First Tier a few years to hone their true qi and bring it to its limit.
Otherwise, with their talent, they would have already broken through to the Fourth Tier or even Fifth Tier, instead of lingering at the Third Tier rank.
Originally, their true energy purity had already been honed to the peak that they could achieve at this stage, but last night Nangong Xian'er opened a completely new door for them.
They have indeed reached the limit of their own true energy refinement, but this is only within themselves; they can still use external forces to further refine the purity of their true energy.
Of course, this behavior is extremely dangerous; one wrong move and you could go berserk and explode, dying instantly.
Fortunately, they were only using the Dragon Baleful Intent within Nangong Xian'er's body to cultivate, and they were doing so through this exquisite dual cultivation technique, which allowed them to minimize their cultivation level.
Most importantly, their tempering process was completed within Nangong Xian'er's body, transferring most of the risks to Nangong Xian'er's body.
After half a year of arduous cultivation, Nangong Xian'er's body had long been tempered to the Peak Third Tier, and she was fully capable of withstanding the dual cultivation of her close friends.
Similarly, her efforts weren't in vain; she also reaped rewards.
Taking advantage of this opportunity for dual cultivation, she can use the Formless Divine Art to imprint the power characteristics of several close friends, laying a solid foundation for her future cultivation plans.
Once their plan succeeds, their strength will be greatly enhanced.
Therefore, this is a mutually beneficial and win-win transaction.
How is Ba'er doing?
Meanwhile, in a luxurious mansion in the Huaxia, a lean old man spoke in a cold voice, his words filled with dissatisfaction.
Today, their Muddling Heavenly Dao has become a laughing stock. Their disciple was drugged and knocked unconscious in public, foaming at the mouth and even losing control of his bladder.
How embarrassing!
"The young master has not yet awakened..."
The middle-aged man behind the thin old man replied cautiously, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the old man's cold gaze.
"Am I asking about that piece of trash?"
Such is the reality of Devil Dao sects. After today's humiliating scene, Xiang Ba has lost his qualification to compete for the position of Holy Son.
They, the Muddling Heavenly Dao, certainly don't want a Holy Son or even a Sect Leader who has wet their pants in public. They would be laughed at to death, and they can't afford to lose face like that.
However, he was quite interested in the kind of medicine that could Xiang Ba. Based on his preliminary examination of Xiang Ba's body, the medicine should be a top-grade body-tempering medicine.
Unfortunately, that body-tempering potion seems to have significant limitations and side effects. He had previously ordered people to research the potion, and now he thinks it should have some effect.
"I have had it tested and confirmed that the liquid does indeed have a very strong body-tempering effect, but it is only effective for those below the Fourth Tier of cultivation."
At the same time, it also produces extreme pain. The residual fluid extracted from the young master's stomach was used for experiments, and 73 out of 100 test subjects were driven insane by the pain that exceeded their limits.
Of the remaining twenty-seven people, twenty-six survived, but suffered numerous hidden injuries. Only one person succeeded perfectly, with his physical strength increasing dramatically from the Second Tier to the Third Tier.
We also discovered that this medicine can be used topically. Although the efficacy is reduced to less than one-tenth, the pain associated with the side effects is greatly reduced.
Finally, the subordinate guessed that this body-tempering liquid could be used by dilution. Although its efficacy would be further reduced, the side effects would also be greatly weakened.
However, the residual fluid extracted from the young master's stomach was limited and insufficient to support further experiments.
The middle-aged man hurriedly recounted the results of his men's experiments, while also expressing lingering fear.
He personally oversaw this matter and witnessed firsthand how the test subjects were tortured to the point of sudden death or insanity; in the end, only one person truly succeeded.
A success rate of one percent is just too, too low!
The old man tapped his fingers lightly on the table, lost in thought, before suddenly speaking.
"Is it possible that a prescription could be developed?"
Although the side effects of that body-tempering potion are quite painful, they are not entirely unavoidable, and compared to its efficacy, these side effects are completely negligible.
Furthermore, the Hun Tian Dao sect is a legitimate Devil Dao sect; which of their Muddling Heavenly Dao techniques doesn't have some side effects?
Compared to the negligible pain from the body-tempering potion, it's really nothing.
So he became interested in the body-tempering elixir, but based on the information he had previously obtained, this body-tempering elixir was related to that girl from the Nangong Household.
The girl's identity is very mysterious. Even some old-timers in the Desire Dao have come out of seclusion for her, secretly saying that anyone who dares to touch her will be killed or annihilated.
Therefore, forcibly taking it is not an option. The best course of action now is to independently research and develop the formula for that body-tempering elixir.
