Seeing Li Mochou put her arm around Li Huan's waist, Huang Rong was displeased, but she couldn't bring herself to scold her.

The two men helped Li Huan to the chair.

"I'm fine! Let go..."

Li Huan gave the order, his voice trembling, and leaned back in his seat, letting out a long sigh.

In fact, Li Huan's internal energy was not depleted much.

He used his acting skills to feign exhaustion, deliberately misleading the Golden Wheel Monk and Huo Du.

Little Dragon Girl gracefully approached and asked with concern, "Alliance Leader Li, have you suffered internal injuries?"

Li Fu and Yang Guo also came over, looking nervous.

"Let's keep acting," Li Huan waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I just used up a lot of internal energy. I'll recover after resting for two hours..."

Huang Rong couldn't help but feel guilty and said in a low voice.

“I had already seen through Huo Du’s plan to use a martial arts contest to deplete your internal energy, but seeing how readily you agreed, I mistakenly assumed you had a scheme to deal with Huo Du, so I didn’t warn you…”

Yang Guo said, "My aunt and I also realized Huo Du's trick. During the fight just now, we didn't dare to use our full strength, for fear of depleting Uncle Li's internal energy and giving Jinlun Fawang an opportunity to take advantage."

Huang Rong turned her head and looked at Ma Yu, Qiu Chuji, and Hao Datong below the stage.

They had only suffered minor injuries and were awkwardly adjusting their clothes.

Huang Rong angrily scolded, "Hmph! Those three stinking Taoist priests, they don't know what's good for them at all, showing off in public! They insisted on attacking Brother Huan with all their might, and ended up falling into Huo Du's treacherous trap!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Du quickly said, "Miss Huang, don't slander me! I didn't do anything underhanded!"

"Leader Li's martial arts are unparalleled. He defeated ten masters single-handedly, which is truly admirable!"

Li Huan feigned exhaustion: "Since you admire this alliance leader, quickly hand over ten chests of jewels! As for how to punish you, I'll decide after I rest for a while..."

Huo Du laughed loudly: "Hahaha... Young Master Wang always keeps his word! These ten chests of jewels are all for Alliance Leader Li!"

After saying that, Huo Du waved his hand in acknowledgment.

The Mongolian warriors obeyed the order and quickly moved ten chests of jewels onto the stage.

Huo Du appeared extremely generous.

One account states that all twenty chests of jewels he possessed were plundered from the Central Plains region; he acquired them effortlessly and felt no remorse for losing them.

Secondly, it shows that he was deceived by Li Huan's acting skills and really believed that Li Huan's internal energy was too depleted and that he could no longer use his divine skills.

At this moment, a murderous aura flashed in the eyes of the Golden Wheel Monk.

Huang Rong hurriedly announced: "In this year's 'Mount Hua Sword and Culinary Tournament,' Leader Li defeated ten masters, and he truly deserves to be called the number one martial artist in the world!"

The crowd erupted in cheers.

Huang Rong said, "Next, I urge all heroes to generously donate and buy boxed lunches..."

"Wait!" Huo Du shouted!

Huang Rong angrily asked, "What trick are you trying to pull now?"

Huo Du asked, "May I ask, is Alliance Leader Li's martial arts the best in the world, or the best in the Central Plains?"

"You little bastard, your ears aren't working properly!" Li Fu rolled her eyes mockingly. "My mother made it very clear that Father's martial arts are the best in the world!"

With a swish, Huo Du put away his iron-bone fan: "Alliance Leader Li has only defeated ten masters from the Central Plains martial arts world, not even the masters from the Western Regions and Mongolia. How can he be called the number one in the world?"

Huang Rong sneered: "So you're saying you want to compete in martial arts with Alliance Leader Li as a Mongolian expert?"

Huo Du said, "Alliance Leader Huang is truly witty. Knowing full well that my martial arts are crippled, he still calls me a master!"

Huang Rong said, "Now that you've become a piece of trash, stop being arrogant and obediently go back to the Mongolian grasslands so that Zhou Botong can witness a hundred horses pulling a carriage!"

“Yes, yes!” Zhou Botong stood up from the top of the electric tricycle’s cab, pointed at Huo Du, and said, “Take me back to the Mongolian grasslands and let a hundred fine horses pull the cart. I want to broaden my horizons!”

Huo Du smiled and said, "Senior Zhou, please don't be impatient. I will definitely do what I promised you and will never let you down!"

Huang Rong looked at Jinlun Fawang with disdain in her eyes.

"Huo Du, since you dare not fight against Alliance Leader Li, you must have sent the Golden Wheel Monk to take action!"

“That’s right!” Huo Du said, “My master is not only a top expert in the Western Regions, but also a top expert in Mongolia! Alliance Leader Li must compete with my master and win before he can be worthy of the title of the best in the world!”

"Despicable and shameless!" Huang Rong angrily rebuked, "You used ten chests of jewels as bait to lure Alliance Leader Li into fighting ten masters, thus expending too much of his internal energy and creating an opportunity for Golden Wheel Monk!"

"Heroine Huang!"

The Golden Wheel Monk raised his head and said, "I swore publicly before that I would never take advantage of someone in distress! Since Alliance Leader Li is out of strength, I will ask him for guidance another day!"

Huo Du hurriedly said, "Master, you swore before that if Alliance Leader Li were seriously injured, you would never take advantage of him! But at this moment, Alliance Leader Li is only exhausted, he is not injured!"

The Golden Wheel Monk smiled slightly: "Lack of physical strength proves that your internal strength is not deep enough! My challenge to Alliance Leader Li at this time, even if it is not taking advantage of someone's weakness, is still taking advantage of their vulnerability, which is not honorable!"

Wow, that was really well said.

Not only did he demonstrate his righteous demeanor as a "martial arts master," but he also mocked Li Huan's lack of internal strength.

At the same time, they were using a disguised "provocation" tactic, attempting to get Li Huan to willingly accept the challenge!

Li Huan chuckled inwardly.

Lao Tzu pretended to have exhausted his internal energy in order to set a trap, boost the confidence of the Golden Wheel Monk, ignite his desire for revenge, and lure him into being deceived!

You're being hypocritical in refusing, so I'll take advantage of the situation and use your own scheme against you!

Li Huan jumped up, feigning anger.

"Golden Wheel Monk! How dare you mock my insufficient internal strength! You are utterly arrogant!"

"Don't even mention taking on ten at once, even if I took on a hundred, I wouldn't run out of stamina..."

After saying that, Li Huan frowned, clutched his chest, and continued to act, pretending to be out of breath.

"Golden Wheel Dharma King, get on the stage now! I'm going to teach you a lesson again today, and I'll use the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill to sever your meridians! Cough cough cough..."

As Li Huan spoke, he coughed violently a few times.

Guo Jing quickly dissuaded him, "Senior Brother, calm down! Don't stoop to the level of a defeated opponent! Lest you fall into Huo Du's trap!"

Li cheered and exclaimed, "Today I will definitely beat the Golden Wheel Dharma King to a pulp, make him completely submit and beg for mercy on his knees!"

"Good!" The Golden Wheel Monk's face lit up with joy. "Heroes, you can all bear witness! It wasn't that this old monk was bullying Li Huan because he was physically exhausted, but rather that he was extremely arrogant, boasting of his profound internal strength!"

After speaking, the Golden Wheel Monk used his lightness skill to fly onto the stage in a very stylish manner.

Li Huan hurriedly said, "Huo Du! After I defeat the Golden Wheel Monk, you must use ten boxes of jewels to buy one hundred boxed lunches!"

Everyone was shocked.

Ten chests of jewels, worth at least one million taels of silver.

If you buy one hundred boxed meals, it means each boxed meal costs ten thousand taels of silver.

An unprecedentedly high price!

Huo Du sneered, "What if Master defeats you?"

Li Huan said, "If I lose to the Golden Wheel Monk, I will let him take the position of 'Martial Arts Alliance Leader,' and you will become the vice leader!"

Huo Du was instantly excited: "Is this true?"
