Chapter 196: Chapter 8 Little Sky Pride! Yaowu Shows Off_3

“Uh, you’re right.” Wang Shouzhe didn’t consider it at first, but having been reminded, he realized it was a smart strategy. Without any pretense, he accepted the Talent Improvement Liquid.

Rolling his eyes, he kicked Wang Luoqiu and said, “This has nothing to do with you anymore. Go rest over there, and don’t fight so recklessly next time.”

Wang Luoqiu glared at him but remembering he couldn’t beat his older brother, he dusted his butt off and obediently ran over to rest.

With Wang Luoqiu’s retreat,

The next person to take the challenge was Liu Yuanhui.

Liu Yuanhui was the Liu Family’s carefully groomed Spiritual Platform Seed of the direct line. He was only thirty years old but already at the Peak Level Nine of the Vital Energy Refining Realm. His Profound Martial Fighting Technique was similarly polished to perfection.

After observing the demon puppet for so long, he had a full understanding of its strength and wore a very solemn expression.

He stepped forward to take the challenge.

The battle with the demon puppet was too close to call, nearly equal in strength. Fortunately, he was very determined, and practiced the Liu Family’s middle-grade Cultivation Technique “Elemental Water Technique”.

His stamina and recovery were both excellent.

After entangling with the demon puppet for an hour, he suffered numerous minor injuries. Finally, he was able to pierce through its chest with a sword, winning the battle with difficulty.

Half of his body was clawed and torn as he came down, a bitter look on his face.

In ordinary times, if he defeated a strong opponent of his level, he would certainly have been full of pride, taking it as something to gloat about. But with Wang Luoqiu’s brilliant performance before him, his performance seemed quite ordinary.

As for the second round, he gave it up without even thinking.

It was a wise move. Otherwise, facing two opponents, he might not last more than a dozen rounds.

But it was still very lucky to get a Heavenly Spirit Pill, and even the Old Ancestor Xuanyu patted his shoulder encouragingly.

All his peers also congratulated him continuously. After all, Liu Yuanhui was the second one to pass the test and get the Heavenly Spirit Pill, which everyone was very envious of.

Afterwards, Wang Shouzhe pulled him aside and helped treat his wounds.

Liu Yuanhui gratefully bowed to him, saying, “Shouzhe, thank you. Your Yi Wood Bloodline is truly unique.”

“There’s no need for such formalities between us,” Wang Shouzhe replied with a smile, “Luckily, these are just surface injuries. If I didn’t do anything, you would recover in seven or eight days.”

Meanwhile,

Another child from the family rose and walked to the middle of the Trial Platform.

It was Wang Luo Jing.

She was wearing a long, black and blue dress decorated with intricate patterns. Upon closer inspection, the patterns were all made of insects.

At the same time, she carried a peculiar large box on her back.

Her expression was calm, showing no trace of fear in her eyes.

Over the years, she spent half her time in Changning.

Because the residing Insect Master of Changning personally came to talk to her after hearing about Wang Luo Jing. He insisted on taking her as his disciple, promising to teach her everything he knew. It was such a good deal that Wang Shouzhe naturally didn’t refuse.

Seeing Wang Luo Jing going up,

Wang Shouzhe said to Wang Luoqiu, “Luo Qiu, let me discuss something with you. How about giving the Talent Improvement Liquid to Luo Jing first? That way, Luo Jing can have an easier time in the second round.” He had high hopes for Luo Jing, too.

Wang Luoqiu didn’t care: “Since you have it, you can do whatever you want.”

Instead, when Wang Luo Jing heard this suggestion, she quickly shook her head, saying, “No need, thank you for your kindness, fourth-brother. But, if Luo Qiu can do it, as her older sister, I can do it too.” There was a touch of stubbornness in her calm eyes.

With those words, Wang Shouzhe didn’t insist any further.

He knew about his younger sister Wang Luo Jing’s character. Although she looked weak on the outside, she was filled with stubbornness on the inside.

Furthermore, she and Wang Luo Qiu had been competing against each other since they were little, so she naturally didn’t want to lose to her.

“Luo Jing! Be careful,” Wang Shouzhe seriously warned, “If you can’t persist, you can give up. After all, there’s still a chance next time.”

“Fourth-brother, don’t underestimate me.” Finishing her sentence, Wang Luo Jing gave Wang Shouzhe a sweet smile. Then she walked step by step to the middle of the Trial Platform, her expression gradually becoming serious and cold: “Artifact Spirit, I want to take the trial.”

A cold and killing aura permeated the air, causing the younger generation who were watching to shiver involuntarily and have a few degrees of awe towards Wang Luo Jing.

Only Wang Luo Qiu, who was resting, curled her lips and murmured, “There are so many things to learn, yet she has to mimic Wang Shouzhe’s pretending ways to the fullest.”
