Chapter 668: Chapter 180: You Look Quite Handsome, You Must Be Drowning in Debt, Right?

’But I never expected this kind of... bizarre, psychotic reaction.’

Zhang Tianyu shot Chu Fan a cold glance, the killing intent in his eyes turning into the kind of contempt one has for an idiot.

"Utterly nonsensical."

He turned to leave.

Some people’s fates were already sealed.

Life and death were decided by a single thought from him.

’Since that’s the case, why waste more words on this brain-damaged loser?’

Suddenly, Chu Fan called out to him, "Hey!"

Zhang Tianyu stopped but didn’t turn around. His back radiated a chilling Evil Qi.

Chu Fan switched back to a normal tone and said loudly, "I see you’re quite handsome..."

Zhang Tianyu’s aura grew even colder, but he remained silent.

Chu Fan continued, "So, you must be up to your ears in debt, right?"

Zhang Tianyu violently swung his sleeve, and his entire body vanished into thin air like a wisp of cyan smoke, leaving only a cold snort echoing in the air.

Only after Zhang Tianyu had completely disappeared did Shi Hao grab Chu Fan and ask, "Brother, all that stuff you said just now about romance, women, and debt... I didn’t understand a single word! What was that all about?"

Chu Fan gave a mysterious smile, leaned close to his ear, and whispered a few words.

"..." Shi Hao’s eyes went wide. He was speechless for a long moment before spitting out two words: "Holy shit!"

Suddenly—

From the Martial Arts Arena below, Qingyangzi’s resonant voice traveled through an amplification Array and clearly reached Chu Fan’s ears. "Divine Power Realm Ring Number Three, next match! Zhao Tianxing of the Seven Stars Gang versus Dongfang Wulei of the Celestial Blade Pavilion!"

"Hm?"

Chu Fan’s expression turned serious, and he dropped his playful demeanor. "It’s Tianxing’s turn already?"

He immediately turned, ignoring Shi Hao, and hurried back to the Seven Stars Gang’s area.

At that moment, Zhao Tianxing was already on his feet.

He tightened the grip on the Long Saber on his back and took a deep breath, as if to calm his nerves.

He turned his head just in time to meet Chu Fan’s eyes as he ran back.

Chu Fan didn’t say much. He walked up, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a heavy tone, "Tianxing, remember..."

"If you can’t win, give up early. Your life comes first."

"You’re only at the First Heaven of the Divine Power Realm. There’s no shame in losing to someone whose Realm is far higher than yours."

"I know." Zhao Tianxing nodded.

Just then, his left sleeve twitched slightly. A small, emerald-like Little Cyan Snake peeked its head out, flicked its tongue, and spoke in a human voice, "With me here, even if he loses, it won’t be too embarrassing."

A wry smile touched Zhao Tianxing’s lips. He straightened his clothes and strode down from the stands, stepping onto the rugged, stone-strewn Divine Power Realm ring.

Across the ring, a graceful figure had already been waiting for some time.

From the Celestial Blade Pavilion, Dongfang Wulei.

She was a beautiful woman dressed in tight-fitting black martial attire.

Around twenty-four or twenty-five years old, she held a long, slender Yanling Saber, her gaze as sharp as a falcon’s.

The two faced each other from dozens of yards apart, the air between them seeming to crackle with sparks.

The Celestial Blade Pavilion and the Seven Stars Gang already had bad blood between them.

When Chu Fan first arrived in Qing Province City, the Celestial Blade Pavilion, the Celestial Wolf Gang, and others had been instigated into challenging the Seven Stars Gang at their headquarters.

In the end, Chu Fan gave them a sound thrashing, and they scurried away in disgrace, their reputation in tatters.

Who would have thought their paths would cross again so soon? Zhao Tianxing’s first opponent in the main tournament was actually a True Disciple of the Celestial Blade Pavilion!

Dongfang Wulei sized up Zhao Tianxing, her gaze lingering for a moment on the longbow in his hand and the Long Saber on his back. She said coldly, "Dongfang Wulei of the Celestial Blade Pavilion, Fourth Heaven of the Divine Power Realm."

"Aside from Chu Fan, no one in your Seven Stars Gang is a match for me."

She pointed her Long Saber, its Sword Qi menacing. "If you don’t want to lose an arm or a leg, drop your saber and surrender."

"Otherwise, blades have no eyes, and I will not show mercy!"

Hearing this, Zhao Tianxing actually calmed down.

He slowly took the Bengyue Bow from his back and said in a low voice, "Zhao Tianxing of the Seven Stars Gang, First Heaven of the Divine Power Realm."

"We’ll see if I’m a match for you after we fight! Please enlighten me!"

BOOM!

As the two announced their Cultivation levels, the entire crowd erupted!

"What? The First Heaven of the Divine Power Realm?"

"Is that Seven Stars Gang from the countryside crazy? They’re actually sending someone who just broke through to the First Heaven of the Divine Power Realm? Isn’t that just sending him to his death?"

"A three-Heaven gap! That’s like an adult fighting a child! The tournament may limit weapon grades, but how can you bridge a chasm in Cultivation?"

"I heard that Demon Suppression Guard Chu Fan is pretty arrogant, but I didn’t expect this Zhao Tianxing, who looks so honest, to be just as reckless!"

For a moment, everyone’s attention was drawn to this seemingly "lopsided" duel, all eyes focusing on the Divine Power Realm ring.

In contrast, the Acupoint Realm ring, which had originally been the center of attention, was now completely ignored.

"Stubborn fool! If you want to die, I’ll grant you your wish!"

Dongfang Wulei snorted coldly and wasted no more words.

"Die!"

She let out a sharp cry, stomped her foot, and shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.

Her Long Saber transformed into a vicious streak of cold light, aimed straight for Zhao Tianxing’s throat!

However, before she could even charge, Zhao Tianxing was already retreating rapidly while simultaneously flinging his right hand toward a cloth pouch at his side!

"Taste my Poisonous Sand!"

WHOOSH!

A sky full of yellow sand, mixed with a powder that blocked Divine Sense, swirled up and instantly covered an area of a hundred feet, sweeping toward Dongfang Wulei!

"Poisonous Sand?"

Dongfang Wulei was slightly startled. Instinctively thinking it was a potent Poisonous Sand, she immediately activated her Protective Spirit Shield, and her Sword Momentum slowed.

THUD! THUD! THUD!

But the yellow sand only pattered against her shield, possessing little to no attack power. It didn’t even cause a single ripple on the shield’s surface!

"Is this your grand tactic? Ridiculous!"

Dongfang Wulei waved her left hand, and a sudden gust of wind instantly blew away the yellow sand before her.

But when her vision cleared, she froze.

Zhao Tianxing was nowhere to be seen on the ring.

Zhao Tianxing had used the momentary cover of the sand to "vanish" into thin air on the ring, which was cluttered with massive stones!

"Playing hide-and-seek?"

Dongfang Wulei sneered, her electric gaze sweeping across the surrounding boulders. "Using such a cheap trick against a Fourth Heaven of the Divine Power Realm cultivator? Naive!"
