Peerless Little Immortal Doctor

Chapter 786: Chapter 788 Arrangements

“So, this is a test of team strength, huh.”

Xia Liu stroked his chin. If it was just the four ranks Lin Xiaotian mentioned, he didn’t seem to fit into any category.

Of course, concealing his energy was possible, but that wouldn’t be very humane.

After all, this was a grand event with the support of Heavenly Mansion.

As the Chief of Heavenly Mansion, he had to ensure fairness and integrity.

“Yes, if you want to participate, you’ll need to conceal your energy,” Lin Xiaotian nodded in response and made his suggestion.

“Absolutely not, the Martial World Society of Western Province will have many strong individuals from Heavenly Mansion assisting, and their eyes are like needles. If they detect something amiss, it will be troublesome,” Tie Shan had some understanding of Heavenly Mansion before following Xia Liu.

He knew the organization’s power and terror.

If Heavenly Mansion were to catch a hold of something incriminating,

then it might not just be a problem for Xia Liu alone, but the entire team could suffer.

Tie Shan wasn’t worried about his own safety,

but rather about the youth from Osmanthus Village.

They were just novices who hadn’t been cultivating for long.

If Heavenly Mansion targeted them, they would have no future at all.

Moreover, there would be many sects and families from Western Province at the Martial World Society event.

It would be best not to employ any tactics.

“Hmm, Tie Shan is right. I am quite confident that I can hide my energy, but if it leaks, Heaven-Rank warriors, even Path-Entering warriors, could easily sense it,” Xia Liu spoke before Lin Xiaotian could object.

“Oh…”

Lin Xiaotian took a deep breath, “Then this is going to be difficult. For the Heaven-Rank category, I would be invincible, but I’m afraid I won’t make it in the other three.”

Whoever came up with this rule was clever; the requirement to fight across four consecutive ranks.

If you lose three, you’ll be disqualified from participating.

“For the Mysterious Rank, I have many candidates here. With the energy of Xiao Xue and the others, they should be able to match but not exceed Mysterious Rank warriors.”

“Right! It’s a pity. The sisters-in-law lack combat experience, and Lili has advanced too, otherwise she could defeat a Mysterious Rank warrior in a matter of seconds,” Lin Xiaotian suddenly remembered that the energy of the second level of Qi Cultivation was roughly equivalent to that of an Earth-Rank High-Level.

Yet in terms of overall strength, someone at the second level of Qi Cultivation could instantly kill a Mysterious Rank warrior.

It was just a shame that Xia Liu’s girls lacked combat experience.

“Experience is gained through battle, and with me here, it can quickly be maxed out,” Xia Liu smiled slightly, dismissing the concern about experience; with a master like him around, training a female warrior would be a breeze.

“Haha, so Mysterious Rank is settled, just leaving Earth-Rank and Yellow-Rank,” Lin Xiaotian didn’t argue back because he knew Xia Liu could definitely do it.

“We don’t need too many wins, just three victories will suffice.”

“With Lili’s current cultivation, facing an Earth-Rank High-Level warrior without revealing it is somewhat challenging…” Lin Xiaotian said troubledly.

Cultivators are indeed more terrifying than warriors.

But that is when they reveal all their abilities. Currently, with all the hiding and concealing, there will certainly be many restrictions.

“I am willing to risk my life to guarantee a win in the Earth-Rank category,” Tie Shan, who had been silent, suddenly became serious.

He was very earnest; only with a life-risking promise would his power reach its limit.

“Cough cough, Tie Shan, I appreciate your sentiment, but don’t joke about life in the future. It’s not worth risking your life over something so trivial. Besides, even if we won in the end, the representation from Western Province wouldn’t simply belong to us,” Xia Liu cautioned.

“I was impulsive,” Tie Shan admitted when he carefully analyzed Xia Liu’s words and had a sudden realization.

“When the time comes, you’ll definitely be on the Earth-Rank stage, no doubt about it. Just do your best, and if you’re defeated, you’re defeated. As for the Yellow-Rank stage, I’m planning to choose between Xiao Hu and Dazhuang.”

Xia Liu shifted his gaze to the two of them.

The moment they were singled out, Xiao Hu and Li Dazhuang felt their blood boiling.

“Brother Xia Liu! I want to fight on the stage!”

“Xiao Hu! Don’t you compete with me! I must go up there!”

“Dazhuang, you’ve got kids. Let me handle the rough stuff.”

“Damn! You’ve got a girlfriend, and I heard she’s pregnant; you’re the one who needs to take care.”

…

Thud, thud!

As the two were arguing back and forth, Xia Liu gave each of them a knock on the head.

“What’s all this noise about? You’re talking as if it’s a matter of life and death.”

Err, err, err…

Li Dazhuang and Xiao Hu exchanged a look, then hung their heads in thought, realising there was something off in their words.

“Listen to my arrangement; both of you let Xiaotian train you well. Before we set off, fight one match. Whoever wins gets on the stage. Fair enough?”

“Hehe, Brother Xia Liu’s suggestion is very good!”

“Extremely fair. Is the training content combat experience this time?”

In response to Li Dazhuang’s question, Xia Liu nodded.

“Real combat means inevitable bruises and sprains, even broken hands and feet; can you still endure it?”

Lin Xiaotian added.

“Yes!”

Li Dazhuang and Xiao Hu were full of vigor; unless one wasn’t a man, how could he say no.

“Then I’m relieved. And you guys relax too; if an arm breaks, go to Xia Liu, he’ll heal you in minutes.”

As soon as Lin Xiaotian finished speaking, Li Dazhuang, Xiao Hu, and the young men present were all covered in sweat.

Even Xia Liu was speechless.

“The Martial World Society will start in half a month and will last for five days. We only have half a month left. I hope you can all push yourselves. I don’t ask for much, just hope for a clean sweep within your same Rank.”

“A clean sweep within the same Rank!”

“That’s awesome!”

“With Brother Xiaotian here, Xiao Hu and Dazhuang will definitely have no problems!”

“Yes! I believe that in half a month, they will have undergone a tremendous transformation.”

“I really want to participate too, but alas, my talent isn’t good enough, and neither is my cultivation.”

…

Xia Liu suddenly thought about cultivation resources and then announced, “Listen up, everyone. On this trip to Yanjing, I’ve had the fortune to obtain some cultivation resources, enough for you to squander for quite some time. After tonight’s training, collect them at Sect Leader Tie Shan’s place.”

“What! Cultivation resources!”

“Cultivation resources that can be squandered for a long time!”

“Oh my god! The legendary cultivation resources!”

“Wait, what are cultivation resources?”

“Damn it! Think a little, will you? Of course, they’re goods to assist in cultivation!”

“Ahhh! We can also have cultivation resources that only noble warriors have access to?”

“Of course we can. With Brother Xia Liu around, anything can happen!”

…

Cultivation resources were something the youths had heard Sect Leader Tie Shan and Lin Xiaotian talk about.

Lin Xiaotian’s words had left a deep impression on them.

He said if one had sufficient cultivation resources, advancing from Yellow-Rank to Mysterious Rank would usually take two years, but with the help of cultivation resources, it could take as little as half a year to reach Mysterious Rank.
