Chapter 97: Swift Flower
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Swift Flower? Not bad.”
Under Li Xuan’s God’s Perspective, he saw a red banner hanging at the entrance of the Earth Battle Team’s base.
On the banner, it said that in the Summoned Beast Arm Wrestling Competition, the first place winner would be rewarded with 30 Swift Flowers.
The Swift Flower was very useful to the current Li Xuan. It could increase his speed and strengthen his skill. Although it could only be strengthened to the Intermediate Level, Li Xuan still did not want to miss it.
This was because arm wrestling was simply too easy for Li Xuan. With his Transcendent Monstrous Strength, Li Xuan was not afraid of any opponent.
“Yueyue, let’s go to Blueprint Street and participate in the arm wrestling competition,” Li Xuan said directly.
“Eh? Oh, okay.”
Qin Yue nodded obediently and brought Song Xiaomei along as they headed towards Blueprint Street.
At Blueprint Street, Earth Battle Team’s headquarters...
At this moment, the headquarters was very lively. All of the Summoners who were not weak were walking around the headquarters. Many people were surrounding the competition stage and shouting.
In the final round’s resting area.
Lie Shan, who had been beaten up by Li Xuan four times, was currently sitting here. His face was gloomy as he sat, emitting a tyrannical aura.
Ever since he had been beaten up, Lie Shan had a huge psychological trauma toward Li Xuan. He no longer dared to provoke Li Xuan and directly ran to Blueprint Street at the edge of the city.
Coincidentally, there was an arm-wrestling competition here. Feeling depressed, he directly let his Summoned Beast participate in the competition and took the opportunity to vent his emotions.
Such an order also made the gorilla, who was in a very bad mood, completely let go. After winning ten consecutive matches, no one was willing to compete with it anymore.
There was no other way. Lie Shan’s strength was too strong.
His own strength was already at the Black Iron Rank Peak. He could be considered an expert that people needed to be paid attention to in Black Rock City.
In addition, his gorilla had the Monstrous Strength Innate Skill and was very strong. This also made it a popular candidate to win the championship.
In terms of strength, even if one was at the Peak Level, one would not be able to beat his gorilla.
Therefore, everyone voted collectively. Anyone who had won ten rounds could directly advance and only participate in the final round.
This was also the reason why Lie Shan was sitting here.
“My mood is finally a little better. From now on, I’ll live in this area of Blueprint Street. This way, I won’t run into that orange cat, and I won’t get beaten up.”
Lie Shan took advantage of the fact that there was no one around to secretly wipe away his tears. He felt bitter in his heart. He was only returning a favor, but in the end, he was beaten up like this.
Thinking about how he had been beaten up four times in a row, and how he had lost a few teeth, his mood became terrible again.
The gorilla beside him was about the same. He had also lost a few teeth, and even the blisters on his head had not completely disappeared.
The man and the beast just sat in the resting area of the finals, lamenting their tragic fate.
It was also at this moment.
Li Xuan, Qin Yue, and the others came to the Earth Battle Team to begin to register for the competition.
The Summoned Beasts here were mostly Strength-Type. The appearance of the orange cat naturally attracted the attention of many people.
Some people even gathered together and discussed among themselves.
“Even an orange cat is participating in the competition. As expected, it’s a folk competition. There’s not even a threshold. Anyone can sign up for the competition.”
“Yeah, but if we meet the orange cat, wouldn’t that be an instant victory? Maybe we’ll gain a huge advantage.”
“You’re right. I really hope my opponent is the orange cat.”
The surrounding people discussed animatedly. They really wanted to meet an opponent like the orange cat.
“The next contestant is orange cat No. 99 against Red-Furred Monkey No. 98.” The referee raised his right hand.
“Red-Furred Monkey? How lucky. The Red-Furred Monkey is very weak, but the orange cat is even weaker. This time, the Red-Furred Monkey has gained a huge advantage.”
“That’s right, that’s right. I’m so envious.”
“What a pity, what a pity.”
Everyone said enviously. They were very envious of the owner of the Red-Furred Monkey.
In the midst of such voices, the owner of the Red-Furred Monkey ran to the competition stage excitedly and said in surprise.
“I didn’t expect to be so lucky. I actually met an orange cat. Hahaha, today is really my lucky day. Monkey, in a moment, I’ll defeat that orange cat in a second.”
“Whoop, whoop, whoop!”
The whoop jumped happily and danced to express his excitement.
Clearly, the whoop was also very excited to face the orange vat. He felt that he was bound to win.
Amidst such voices...
Qin Yue carried the orange cat to the competition stage under the watchful eyes of everyone and looked around nervously.
It would be a lie to say that she was not nervous after being watched by so many people. Fortunately, Li Xuan was here. Only then did Qin Yue settle down.
“Okay, get on the competition table. Get ready,” the referee said.
Following his voice, the Red-Furred Monkey immediately jumped onto the competition table and looked at the orange cat with its teeth bared.
“Yawn!”
Li Xuan yawned lazily. Under the warm sunlight, he jumped onto the competition stage and raised his little paws.
Seeing that both sides were ready, the referee immediately announced loudly, “Please get ready. Three, two, one, begin!”
Bang!
A dull sound rang out. Following this sound, the Red-Furred Monkey fell to the ground. He was stunned on the spot, completely unable to understand what was going on.
He had clearly prepared everything and wanted to defeat the orange cat in one go. However, who would have thought that he would be defeated instantly? This caused the Red-Furred Monkey to be stunned.
“The match is over. The winner is the orange cat!”
The referee was also a little confused, but he only looked at the result, so he immediately announced the winner.
“He actually won. This orange cat has some ability.”
“It should be his speed. He defeated the opponent before the Red-Furred Monkey could react.”
“It’s possible. The Red-Furred Monkey is also very weak. Defeating him is not a big deal. The orange cat will definitely lose the next round.”
Everyone discussed animatedly. They felt that the orange cat was lucky to win, and they felt that the orange cat would definitely lose the next round.
However, the orange cat’s performance next made everyone’s jaws drop. The orange cat had actually been winning all this time. It had even won against a Mid-Level Black Iron Summoned Beast.
In the end, the orange cat won ten rounds in a row and directly advanced to the finals. This shocked everyone.
“I didn’t expect the orange cat to win ten rounds in a row and enter the finals. However, the finals are for Lie Shan. No one can win against Lie Shan.”
“Isn’t that obvious? Lie Shan is at the High-Level Black Iron Rank, and his gorilla is even more powerful. No one can beat him in arm wrestling.”
“Right, right, right. When Lie Shan comes out later, the match will definitely end in one second.”
Everyone discussed animatedly. They felt that even if the orange cat entered the finals, it would not be able to beat Lie Shan. In fact, it might even be suppressed by Lie Shan.
With this kind of mood, the crowd started to wait. They were waiting for the members of the Earth Battle Team to invite Lie Shan out.
A moment later, a?muscular man with a gorilla slowly walked over from a distance with an extraordinary temperament.
This muscular man’s expression was gloomy. His aura was tyrannical, and his muscles were bulky. One look and one could tell that he was not someone to be trifled with.
As for his gorilla, it was 2.5 meters tall. As it walked, it carried an intense pressure, causing the many mutated beasts to feel fear.
After they appeared, the crowd cheered loudly.
“Champion Lie Shan, Champion Lie Shan, Champion Lie Shan!”
Following this shout, Lie Shan could not help but raise his head. He even waved his hand to indicate that his gloomy mood was finally better.
“Sure enough, joining the competition is the right choice. My mood is also much better.” Lie Shan smiled and extended his hand to pat the gorilla’s arm.
The gorilla was also very excited. It patted its chest to show off its strength.
This display of its strength made the people below praise it loudly, and the atmosphere at the scene became even more lively.
In the center, Lie Shan listened to the cheers of the crowd and enjoyed the praise of the crowd. Lie Shan’s mood became even better.
However, at this moment.
Just as Lie Shan’s mood was getting better and better.
The referee’s voice rang out, “Please welcome contestant number 99 to the stage.”
As the referee spoke, Qin Yue slowly walked up with the orange cat in her arms. She walked to the center of the competition venue without the attention of the crowd.
At this moment, Lie Shan was also happily turning his head to look at his opponent.
However, when he saw this, he was so scared that his eyes were wide open. Even his gorilla’s mouth was wide open.
“Oh my God, why is it him? Why is it him?”
Lie Shan was completely terrified. He was so scared that his scalp was numb. When he realized that the orange cat was looking at him, Lie Shan was so scared that he was paralyzed.
Thud! Thud!
Lie Shan and the gorilla immediately knelt down and looked at the orange cat in fear. Their voices were hoarse.
“Cat... Lord Cat, why are you here?”
“Oh, I just happened to be bored and participate in a competition. Are you my opponent? Then it’s a good opportunity to exercise my muscles and bones.”
Li Xuan spoke faintly. His head twisted twice and emitted a cracking sound.
Such a sound was like a nightmare ringing in Lie Shan’s ears. It frightened him even more and his entire body trembled.
“Lord... Lord Cat, there’s no need to compete anymore. I admit defeat, I admit defeat.” Lie Shan hurriedly admitted defeat.
“Admit defeat? How can you admit defeat? The fight hasn’t started yet,” Li Xuan said lightly.
“No... I don’t want to fight anymore. I won’t fight anymore. I won’t come here anymore.”
Lie Shan turned around and ran away with tears in his eyes. He ran far away like a rabbit.
The gorilla was stunned for two seconds. When it realized that the orange cat was looking at it, the gorilla also trembled in fear. it ran far away and even fell to the ground.
However, it did not care and continued to roll and crawl. In a short while, it disappeared.
Such a scene caused the entire scene to fall into a state of shock.
The people who were cheering for Lie Shan were all dumbfounded.. They did not move at all like idiots.
