Chapter 40 It's not abuse, but worse than abuse
"You lose."
Xu Ren'er walked forward and returned the broken sleeve to its original owner.
Ai Wanle took the sleeve and remained silent. A eunuch hurried forward in this brief silence and handed him a coat.
Ai Wanle changed his outer clothes, looked at Xu Ren'er, and said calmly:
"Since you won, I'll keep my promise. I just told him some of my thoughts."
"What idea?"
"I said, I don't see his love for martial arts in him. He just uses martial arts as a tool."
Hearing this, Xu Ren'er was furious. Even though she knew that the other party might be a member of the royal family, she said to Ai Wanle without any hesitation:
“You deserve to die!!”
She has known Tang Beiju for many years and has seen all the efforts he has made. Among their group of people, Tang Beiju is always the one who gets up the earliest and leaves the latest. He can endure any hardship and never gives up any opportunity to improve his martial arts skills.
How could a person with such a strong desire for martial arts simply treat martial arts as a tool?
Ai Wanle was denying Tang Beiju's decades of hard work!
Ai Wanle narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, but it was a fake smile.
Xu Ren'er's arrogant attitude really displeased him! !
"I've already told you what you want to know." Ai Wanle said in a cold tone, "It's time to start the third round."
"Come on then!"
Xu Ren'er's claws grew larger, her eyes blazing with fire. She looked up at Ai Wanle and said, "I will do my best to handle the exam!"
I must teach you a lesson!!!
Seeing this, Ai Wanle knew what Xu Ren'er was thinking. Thinking of this, he suddenly stopped being angry.
However, Xu Ren'er still needs to know his place. How can he not even have basic etiquette when facing his elders?
Ai Wanle's eyes flashed with a gleam, and he thought secretly.
Xu Ren'er, with his anger value increased, made every move with ruthlessness. Ai Wanle seemed relaxed, but from his slightly frowned brows, it could be seen that he was not as relaxed as he looked.
He was used to fighting with others. Xu Ren'er was small in stature and her facial features were not human-like, so he could guess her possible next move from her facial expression. In addition, Xu Ren'er's every move was not a traditional offensive behavior, so this formal fight was very disadvantageous to him.
He glanced at Xu Ren'er's white boots inconspicuously. Besides being able to change the size of dog paws and generate a thin layer of ice, what else could the boots do?
Because of the unknown, he has to be more cautious!
In his fight with Xu Ren'er, he relied more on his intuition accumulated over the years, and his internal strength was far deeper than Xu Ren'er, which gave him the upper hand.
If Xu Ren'er's level was only a little bit lower than his...
A drop of cold sweat broke out on Ai Wanle's forehead. He was afraid that he would lose here today.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but become curious about who came up with the idea of teaching dogs martial arts. Although the idea was very strange, when the effect was shown in front of him, Ai Wanle couldn't help but exclaim from the bottom of his heart, what a genius!
"Who is your master?"
Turning his head to avoid the small ice cubes that suddenly appeared, Ai Wanle looked at Xu Ren'er and asked.
Xu Ren'er didn't understand why he asked this question, but she still answered obediently: "I regret it."
Hearing this, Ai Wanle was puzzled.
Yu Hui, I have never heard of this person?
"Which Yu? Which Hui?"
"Yu, who is not as good as the best but better than the worst, Hui, who refuses to repent again and again." Xu Ren'er said lightly.
Ai Wanle was speechless. It would have been fine if the guy in front of him introduced his master's name without any embellishment, but why did he even imply a disparagement of the original master?
After coughing twice, Ai Wanle asked casually:
"Your master abused you?"
Xu Ren'er's brain briefly recalled the handsome face in his mind that always had a mean smile (actually, it wasn't), and he couldn't help but make a bitter face and sighed helplessly: "It's not abuse, but it's worse than abuse."
Yu Hui's train of thought would clash with her cognition from time to time. Isn't this a form of mental abuse?
Ai Wanle was not clear about the complicated situation, but he did not pay much attention to Xu Ren'er's words. He just secretly guessed that Xu Ren'er's master must have used a pseudonym and did not want too many people to know his existence.
"Why do you say Beiju's attitude towards martial arts is that of a tool?"
After fighting for such a long time, Xu Ren'er's emotions finally calmed down. She thought about it carefully. Although she had not had much contact with Ai Wanle, Ai Wanle did not look like a person who would act without purpose. She was afraid that there was something else going on.
Thinking of this, Xu Ren'er felt a little helpless. Before she met that group of friends, she had always been a calm and rational person. If it were in the past, she would definitely be able to see the problem.
Is this what they call, being too concerned leads to confusion?
Thinking of how Xu Ren'er had answered every question he asked, he patiently conveyed his own ideas.
"revenge?!"
Xu Ren'er was shocked. What hatred did Tang Beiju have that needed revenge? If so, why did Tang Qiuyue, his sister, seem to know nothing about it?
"We haven't finished fighting yet? Why don't you think about it after we finish fighting?"
With Xu Ren'er's mind in a mess, Ai Wanle had to speak up to wake her up.
Helplessly, Xu Ren'er could only suppress the doubts in his heart, and the two guys continued to fight.
At the beginning, Ai Wanle was indeed not very adaptable to Xu Rener's playing style, but as time went on, he gradually became familiar with it, while Xu Rener became more and more struggling.
"Bang--"
Xu Ren'er made a mistake and was caught by Ai Wanle, who slapped her with a palm, knocking Xu Ren'er to the ground in an instant.
——
Xu Ren'er followed the guards back to the contestants' gathering place without saying a word, but there was no sign of Tang Qiuyue and Tang Beiju.
Hearing the sound of someone coming back, Nie Erfeng's eyelids twitched. He opened his eyes and looked up at Xu Ren'er.
"They went to the Imperial Hospital."
Imperial Medical Service?
It turned out that Tang Qiuyue's injuries had been controlled thanks to the imperial physician's superb medical skills, but in order to take better care of her, the imperial physician proposed to take her away.
Anyway, Tang Qiuyue's third round of competition has ended and it will not affect her ranking. In order to take care of her, Tang Beiju also left with her.
Before leaving, he asked Nie Erfeng to help notify Xu Ren'er when he returned.
After all, among the contestants present, they were relatively familiar with each other, and the only one who had spoken a few words was Nie Erfeng.
Xu Ren'er nodded, thanked Nie Erfeng, and randomly chose a seat to sit down.
After sitting down, she breathed a sigh of relief silently. It was good news for her that she didn't have to see Tang Beiju immediately. At least in the short term, she didn't know what expression to use to face him, nor did she know whether to ask about the so-called "revenge".
When the eighth contestant was asked to come out, the guards would have shouted out if they had not been professionally trained.
The five-colored python is huge in size, and its pair of golden vertical pupils stare straight at you, making people start sweating involuntarily.
The five-colored python moved its body and followed the guard. The guard suddenly felt like a thorn in his back. His pace involuntarily began to speed up, and he secretly prayed in his heart that he could reach the destination quickly.
The guard breathed a sigh of relief after successfully reaching the destination.
He turned around to say something to the five-colored python, but when he turned around, the five-colored python's snake face was directly in front of him, and it even spit out its red tongue.
Seeing this, the guard's heart sank and he fainted on the spot.
Colorful Python: ...It simply wanted to thank the guards for leading it...
Seeing this, Ai Wanle held his forehead and waved his hand. Facing the five-colored python head-on was indeed a huge impact, but he didn't care much about it. With understanding, he ordered people to carry the guard away for treatment.
"You are very strong."
After this little episode was over, Ai Wanle looked at the colorful python not far away and said seriously.
"It's even stronger than you can understand."
The colorful python replied calmly.
It is not arrogant, it is simply stating the facts.
Faced with such an arrogant attitude, Ai Wanle was not angry. When people face a strong person who does not deliberately restrain his aura, they will feel it.
He understood that the five-colored python was far more powerful than him.
"You lied about your age."
There is an age limit for his competition, and twenty-nine is the limit. However, the profound internal strength of the five-colored python alone is impossible for a person under thirty to possess, no matter how talented he is.
"This body of mine is exactly twenty-nine."
The colorful python said quietly.
The body?
Ai Wanle narrowed his eyes. This was quite interesting.
"Soul transfer?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the originally calm pupils of the five-colored python suddenly showed a ripple.
"How did you know that?"
The so-called soul transfer is that a person with extremely profound martial arts skills voluntarily takes the Creation Pill and creates a soulless body for himself. When he is about to step into the coffin, he transfers all his internal strength to the body and becomes a weak old man.
After losing martial arts skills, you also need to cut off the blood around the pulse, the amount of blood is about the capacity of a teacup, and feed it to the cub little by little for a total of 49 days, which is the soul transfer.
After forty-nine days, if the cub begins to move and its eyes glow, it means that the old man's soul has been successfully transferred to the cub.
This young body has profound knowledge and deep basic internal strength at such a young age. It will become stronger and stronger in the future and can fight ten people at once. This ten is the ten of a peerless martial arts master.
But the success rate of this operation is very low, only one percent probability, any step goes wrong, it will fail;
Even if all the operations are completely correct, such an unnatural act may not be allowed by the way of heaven. Even if the cub's body is inherited properly, it is very likely to explode and die after three days.
With such a high failure rate, most people would become discouraged, and eventually everyone would concede that it was just a fantasy. Then, it began to disappear little by little, and no one knew what soul transmission was anymore.
A trace of warm memories flashed across Ai Wanle's eyes, and his originally solemn expression became warmer.
"When I was young, I traveled around the world and made many friends. One of them mentioned this to me."
Unfortunately, once he had to sit on the throne, it became difficult for him to get together with his friends.
The five-colored python looked at him and thought to himself that this good friend of his was probably not an ordinary person and might have some connection with the Polo Kingdom.
Because only the Pala Kingdom still preserves such relevant records.
"Can we begin?"
After a brief chat, the five-colored python looked at Ai Wanle and asked.
Ai Wanle was overjoyed: "Of course."
——
Xu Ren'er was still thinking about how to start a private conversation with Tang Beiju when suddenly a loud noise came from her ears. She looked towards the door in surprise.
The other contestants were also surprised by the loud noise. They looked at each other, not understanding what had happened.
At the same time, in the fighting arena.
Ai Wanle fell to the ground in a mess, without a sound.
This frightened the eunuchs and guards who were watching nearby. They all rushed forward and began to hurriedly summon the imperial physician.
"Your Majesty, please don't let anything happen to you."
The old eunuch closest to Ai Wanle was so anxious that he burst into tears and cried.
"He's fine. I controlled the strength of my blow."
Seeing that everyone around was so nervous that they lost their minds, the colorful python, which didn't want to say much, had no choice but to explain.
Not only is the other party the examiner, but from their call of "Your Majesty", it also knows that the other party is the most honorable person in the country.
If an explanation is not given in time, not only will we not be able to secure the top spot, but it will also bring disaster to the Polo Kingdom, which is not the purpose of this trip.
In fact, it also felt helpless. The gap in strength was too big, which led to it killing the opponent in one move. If it had known earlier, it would have tried to be more gentle.
