Chapter 807: Chapter 24: Large Pin

The combined force of Shi Dazhu and Gan Jiu’s strike pierced through the bed like a piece of paper, but their faces changed drastically.

Li Xin suddenly appeared behind them, and Gan Jiu and Shi Dazhu immediately split apart. Shi Dazhu’s eyes widened, "You useless trash, selling fake medicine until it backfired on you."

Li Xin had already entangled Fatty Nine. In the cramped room, Fatty Nine couldn’t fully utilize his agile body, and all three of them were wary, not daring to unleash their full Spiritual Ability. Striking Fatty Nine’s neck with a hand chop nearly decapitated him, and a sneak attack from Shi Dazhu was countered by Li Xin’s Iron Mountain Lean, sending him flying backward like a bullet. Just as he was about to crash through the wall, a hand caught him, the tremendous inertia nearly twisting his organs out of place.

Li Xin used the Spiritual Rope to bind the two of them. Gan Jiu and Shi Dazhu struggled desperately, but the more they struggled, the tighter it became. Li Xin picked up a knife that had fallen to the floor, rubbing it repeatedly on Gan Jiu’s chubby face. Gan Jiu turned green, "Master Xin, master, be careful, the blade is poisoned."

"Then you really deserve to die," said Idiot Zhu hurriedly.

"Shut up, Master Xin is immune to all poisons; why would he fear some Dream Gold Fragrance?" Fatty Nine said with a fawning smile, "Master Xin, it’s a misunderstanding, this is not..."

"Keep making up stories," Li Xin observed the two, contemplating whether to just kill these two nuisances, as leaving them alive would be a hazard.

Feeling Li Xin’s intention to kill, Gan Jiu shivered, "Master Xin, you can’t kill us, we are recorded with the Golden Scale Guard. If we die here mysteriously or go missing..."

Li Xin squinted at Gan Jiu, "Are you threatening me?"

"No, no, of course not. You’re certainly not afraid, but being wanted by the Golden Scale Guard would be troublesome, wouldn’t it? You’ve just arrived in the Divine Land; you don’t need trouble."

"What are you afraid of? Didn’t he say we could attack him? Whoever wins gets to be the boss. He never said no sneak attacks, did he lie!" Shi Dazhu bellowed with his bulging eyes.

"My memory must be slipping, I did say that," Li Xin chuckled. Without understanding Buqun’s motives, he didn’t want to expose himself. These two were almost convincingly fooled, but he couldn’t just let it slide. Techniques of the Night Patrol work wonders on even the Fallen, not to mention people here.

Unless those two had bodies of steel, Li Xin’s fingers emitted a menacing red glow and jabbed fiercely into them.

The next second, Fatty Nine and Idiot Zhu immediately writhed on the ground like shrimp, grinding their teeth loudly, but couldn’t break free from the rope on them.

This Night Patrol technique had been researched before. It’s hard for even the Fallen to endure. This time there was no gagging, yet these two managed not to scream.

Before they ended up wetting themselves, Li Xin released the pressure, allowing Gan Jiu and Shi Dazhu to gasp for air like a drowning person catching their first breath.

"Breaking promises!" Shi Dazhu roared, eyes bulging like copper bells.

Li Xin lit a cigarette, took a comfortable drag, and shook his finger, "You can try to deal with me, but I never said there wouldn’t be penalties. Since you came up with a good idea, I’ll spare your lives for now."

Saying this, Li Xin retracted the Spiritual Rope, and Gan Jiu and Shi Dazhu, being tough guys, surprisingly recuperated quickly.

The two exchanged a glance, Gan Jiu’s eyes shifting, "Hehe, Master Xin, how was Jiuxiao Building’s spectacle?"

"Quite the spectacle indeed," Li Xin nodded, "I still want to go. Handle the chores at Martial Heart Sect well. If anyone asks, handle it yourselves."

"Damn..." Shi Dazhu, catching his breath, showed some defiance.

Gan Jiu pulled Shi Dazhu, "That’s as it should be. Master Xin is mighty; the girls at Jiuxiao Building are top-notch. Those from the Outer Sect can’t compare to Master Xin; the ones inside, the ones inside are the best."

"Inside?" Li Xin’s eyes lit up.

"Of course, the outsiders are just mediocre. The Inner Tower is spectacular," Gan Jiu said with a fawning smile.

Li Xin nodded, "Give me some of your Dream Gold Fragrance; I have trouble sleeping and it might help."

Gan Jiu hesitated for a moment before producing an incense box. Li Xin waved his hand, and Gan Jiu dragged the still slightly defiant Shi Dazhu away.

"Fatty Nine, we’re just going to let this go?" Shi Dazhu murmured.

"Shh, we can’t let this become widely known, can we? This time we did gain something. Since this kid is immune to poisons, we’ll just use other tricks."

"Got an idea?"

"Small patience is needed for big gains. Elder Wang is coming, and that’s a major advantage. Taking a bit of insult is nothing. Today he probably only slept with those mediocre girls. With his skills, getting to the Inner Tower shouldn’t be hard. Once he gets tangled up with a seductive woman, I’ll hit him a few more times, and handling him would be a piece of cake."

"Damn, you’re really devious. This evil cultivator from outside who hasn’t seen the world won’t survive a seductive woman’s belly.

Martial Heart Sect, Martial Arts Arena.

All disciples stood ready. Today is the official start of classes, and everyone has high expectations for Elder Wang Zhigao. His abilities are well-known throughout the Divine Land.

At the corner outside the Martial Arts Arena, Li Xin, Gan Jiu, and Shi Dazhu crouched among the bamboo, peeping through a small hole.

"Why are we here?" Shi Dazhu murmured.

"Shh, we’re spying on the lesson, to see what level Elder Wang is at," Gan Jiu whispered, "Our Sect Master is quite kind. As long as we don’t disturb the Inner Sect disciples’ training, she shouldn’t care. Shh, here he comes." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

In the Martial Arts Arena, Wang Zhigao’s gaze swept over everyone. He had come after studying the current composition of the Martial Heart Sect. The Martial Heart Technique of the Martial Heart Sect was inherently a superior Spiritual Ability regulation and operation technique, so the foundation wouldn’t be weak. The Inner Sect disciples had good talent; Fang Qingning possessed a High Grade Wind Spirit Root, Fang Chi had a High Grade Fire Spirit Root, Cai Qingfeng had a Middle Grade Thunder Spirit Root, and other disciples also had Spirit Roots. Of course, anything below the upper grades held no value to him. He mainly came for the siblings Fang Qingning and Fang Chi. With these two anchoring things, he just needed to find some usable potential among the rest of the wastrels and train them hard enough to make an impact.

"I know you’ve learned many things before, but from today on, forget everything. Practice as I say," Wang Zhigao instructed, then suddenly produced an odd... large-headed spike.

The top was thick and rounded, tapering as it went down, resembling a spike, about a meter long. Everyone curiously examined this carrot-like object.

"This is called a big-head needle. It’s a device recently invented by the Earth-level Sect for training in Spiritual Ability control. In the future, everyone will retreat for training, no going out, dedicating all energy to mastering the big-head needle in daily practice. Today’s training is simple: hold the needle."

Saying this, he held the thinner end of the big-head needle in his right hand and slowly raised it, keeping the entire needle vertical.

All disciples smirked slightly at the corners of their mouths, "Elder, we practice basics daily. Could there be a powerful cultivation technique to reveal our Spirit Roots’ full potential?"

Wang Zhigao’s lips curled into a slight smile, waving Cai Qingfeng over, "Your Martial Heart Technique is already excellent. Come, give it a try."
