Chapter 147 - Chapter 147: Li Xuanxiao's Maniacal Fan [Bonus: Tier1 PS criteria May 11-17]

It must be known that the entire Lawless Land is generally biased towards the Demon Race.

The phenomenon of the Underground Black Market was even more pronounced here.

On the surface, the Demon Race still showed some restraint towards the Ronin Alliance.

But here, especially at the Deathmatch Arena, a place backed by the Brocade Snake Manor.

The Demon Race absolutely held the dominant position.

"What are you doing~ Ouch~"

After being pressed down to sit by Chu Yin, the Fat Daoist Wu Jiangming was somewhat confused: "Why won't you let me speak?"

"Are you tired of living, kid? To speak of killing Demon Race members in front of a crowd of Demon Race members?"

Wu Jiangming was unconvinced: "So what? They dared to openly attack Li Xuanxiao, can't I attack them?"

Chu Yin was speechless: "No one is stopping you from attacking, but you need to consider the consequences of your words! This place is basically the territory of the Demon Race. If you clash head-on with them here, you'll only be the one to suffer!"

Wu Jiangming scratched his head: "Isn't that why you're here?"

Chu Yin raised an eyebrow.

Damn it, did this kid plan from the start to use me as a shield?

These hundreds or thousands of Demon Race members are basically in the Late Stage of the Origin Realm! You really think highly of me!

Seeing Chu Yin's expression, Wu Jiangming smiled: "My Daoist sect emphasizes following one's heart, Dao follows Nature. Some words must be spoken; holding them back will affect the Dao Heart! Internal friction is not conducive to Ascension."

Thus, ignoring Chu Yin's dissuasion, Wu Jiangming stood up again and let out a shout full of vigor.

This startled the nearby audience, who all glared angrily at Wu Jiangming.

"Everyone, hear me out, I'm not targeting anyone. I mean, all the Demon Race members present... are all trash!"

This statement clearly made the Demon Race members look displeased.

If it weren't for the Brocade Snake Manor's rule prohibiting private fights within its jurisdiction, they would have swarmed forward long ago and torn Wu Jiangming's mouth apart.

"Kid! You have guts!"

"I've got you marked!"

"Don't try to run when we leave later!"

Chu Yin covered his face. This kid seems to have caught something from Li Xuanxiao!

Li Xuanxiao slaying a Qilin was already absurd enough to open the door for the absurd.

What kind of behavior does this kid choose to emulate, following his example to become a reckless brute?

In this place that was practically a Demon Race nest, he directly launched a mass provocation, immediately drawing maximum hatred!

Bad choice of friends, truly a bad choice of friends!

Playing with you two makes me genuinely nervous...

Chu Yin shifted his body, silently moving away from Wu Jiangming, and began to seriously consider his future criteria for making friends.

Wu Jiangming was completely unconcerned by the threats from the Demon Race members, letting out a sigh of relief.

After speaking his mind freely, he only felt his Dao Heart clear and his entire body relaxed.

That felt good!

He turned his head to look at Chu Yin, only to find that the other party had moved quite far away from him.

Wu Jiangming unceremoniously reached out and threw an arm around Chu Yin's shoulder.

"Brother Chu, wasn't I cool?"

This action immediately drew the gazes and hatred of many Demon Race members towards Chu Yin.

Chu Yin gritted his teeth.

I thank you so much, ah~

Good fortune is shared, but when disaster strikes, you truly know how to share the burden!

Because of Wu Jiangming's commotion, Li Xuanxiao naturally noticed the two below the stage.

In this Underground Black Market, at this Deathmatch Arena, there were actually people cheering for him?

He immediately looked down and, upon clearly seeing that it was Chu Yin and Wu Jiangming, Li Xuanxiao was somewhat stunned.

He never expected to run into Chu Yin and Wu Jiangming here.

Could it be that they came specifically to cheer me on?

Li Xuanxiao was inwardly puzzled.

But Brother Wu is truly brave!

To dare say anything in a place like this, I respect you as a true man!

If you end up dead, I will absolutely go pay respects at your grave!

The host quietly walked up to Li Xuanxiao and asked if he wished to continue or stop.

Li Xuanxiao naturally wanted to continue; at least he aimed for five consecutive victories!

The host nodded and immediately arranged for the next match.

It was the Tiger Demon who was previously ranked behind Li Xuanxiao.

The Tiger Demon was clearly taken aback when it saw Li Xuanxiao on the stage; it had expected to face that other Demon Race member.

But it turned out its opponent was this seemingly frail young man.

So, the previous match was won by this Human Race kid?

The Tiger Demon was quite surprised, and its guard rose slightly.

Being able to defeat that Demon Race member meant he had some skill!

But continuous voices from the audience were slandering Li Xuanxiao.

Saying that Li Xuanxiao relied on his movement technique and sneak attacks, and wasn't truly impressive.

The Tiger Demon listened quietly, and its heart relaxed slightly—so he relied on movement techniques for sneak attacks!

Then I just need to pay attention to Li Xuanxiao's movement technique!

The two exchanged glances, and the Tiger Demon immediately pounced.

Li Xuanxiao utilized the movement technique Evading leaves Movement Technique, moving frantically.

He circled around the Tiger Demon, dodging left and right, slippery as an eel.

He completely avoided engaging the Tiger Demon head-on!

Every now and then, he would find an opportunity to strike the Tiger Demon once. Each strike wasn't high in damage, but accumulated over time, the Tiger Demon couldn't withstand it.

The poor Tiger Demon couldn't utilize its strength and, after sustaining many cuts from Li Xuanxiao's blade, it finally broke its defense, went berserk, and lost all rationality, resorting to wild, unrefined strikes.

Seeing his opponent lose control, Li Xuanxiao knew the time had come. After a few more flashes, he finally found an opening and decisively brought down his blade!

The Tiger Demon's massive head was severed, and its huge body heavily crashed onto the ground.

The entire fight took only three minutes before the Tiger Demon was beheaded.

The crowd below was enraged, and the Demon Race members glared with fury; Li Xuanxiao was simply too detestable!

This fighting style caused little actual harm but was extremely insulting.

Winning two consecutive matches did not make many Demon Race members take Li Xuanxiao seriously.

Instead, they increasingly felt that this kid was just someone relying on movement techniques for trickery!

Many Demon Race members who also had decent movement techniques even got hot-headed and wanted to step up personally to teach Li Xuanxiao a lesson.

Chu Yin also felt a cold sweat for Li Xuanxiao. This kind of fighting style, maneuvering around Demon Race members, demanded extremely precise micro-control of movement techniques!

One slip-up and he could easily backfire, putting himself in a highly disadvantageous position.

Chu Yin asked himself if he could do it; first, his movement technique wasn't as exquisite as Li Xuanxiao's.

Moreover, he couldn't achieve Li Xuanxiao's precise control over True Qi, nor his flexible control over his body.

That kind of on-the-spot decisiveness, the degree of self-control, and the gathering and deployment of True Qi...

Among the Martial Artists he had ever seen, he was in the absolute top tier!

This guy... is he really a Martial Artist from a minor country?

Chu Yin murmured internally, turning his head to look at Wu Jiangming, only to freeze instantly.

The Fat Daoist Wu Jiangming had somehow procured a sign from somewhere.

It had the large characters "Li Xuanxiao Maniacal Fan" written on it.

Not only that, Wu Jiangming directly stood up, shaking his plump body, and wildly waved the sign.

He continued his previous style, shamelessly and openly expressing his admiration for Li Xuanxiao, shouting cheers wildly.

"Xuanxiao Xuanxiao, professional demon slayer!"

"Xuanxiao Xuanxiao, glory of the Human Race!"

"Xuanxiao Xuanxiao, infinitely shining!"

All sorts of flamboyant slogans poured out of Wu Jiangming's mouth.

Chu Yin's mouth twitched. Sometimes he truly admired Wu Jiangming's brain.

The flashy talk just came out so easily; was he really a Daoist disciple?

The Demon Race members gritted their teeth!

Arrogant!

Too arrogant!

This kid is too infuriating!

Wu Jiangming's commotion was so great that Li Xuanxiao on the stage naturally heard Wu Jiangming's flamboyant shouts.

He immediately covered his face in embarrassment. Heavens, if you want to praise me, praise me, but can you not be so chuunibyou...

It makes me feel both ashamed, touched, and want to laugh.

It's hard to keep a straight face...

The host once again followed procedure to ask, and Li Xuanxiao answered 'Continue'.

Soon, the next challenger walked onto the stage...
