Chapter 173: This Immortal Sect Is So Arrogant
“Hello, are you from Xia Country?”
After Wang Zhixing and company sat down, a young black man talked to them.
The black man spoke fluently in Chinese.
He had lived in Xia country for a while and knew a lot about the culture there.
He saw that Wang Zhixing and company were wearing long robes that looked very similar to those in Xia Country, so he curiously came over to ask.
Wang Zhixing surveyed him.
“May I ask if you are from Xia Country?” The black man continued to ask with his big eyes.
Wang Zhixing nodded lightly. “Yes, what do you need?”
“That’s great.” The black man seemed to be very excited as he danced around. “I’ve been here for so long, and I’ve finally met the Xia Country’s team.”
Wang Zhixing was stunned, not understanding why the black man was so excited.
The black man’s eyes lit up as he said excitedly, “Do you know? You guys are the first team from Xia Country. It’s really exciting.”
With that, the black man shouted in many languages.
“Hey! They are from Xia Country. People from Xia Country. Come quickly!”
…
“…”
Soon, all the people on this level surrounded them. It was a huge crowd and was quite exaggerated.
They all took out their cell phones to take photos. They acted as if they saw a big star.
As immortal cultivators, even though Wang Zhixing and the others had very stable states of mind, they still could not remain calm in such a situation.
They did not understand why their identities as people from Xia Country alone would cause this reaction.
Wang Zhixing pondered.?There must be a reason for this.
Someone asked, “Can the people from Xia Country compete with me?”
“Please compete with us first. We guarantee that the appearance fee will be no less than six figures.”
“People from Xia Country, please choose us first. The things we give will definitely be the best among everyone here.”
A blond-haired youth dressed in luxurious clothes said proudly.
Once he spoke, everyone else hesitated.
Obviously, the conditions they could offer were not as good as those from the blond youth.
Faced with everyone’s strange requests, Wang Zhixing fell into deep thought.
He guessed that it had something to do with their identities as Xia Country citizens.
Thus, he asked these people.
He had guessed right.
Xia Country was the source region of martial arts worldwide. Therefore, generally speaking, when martial artists from Xia Country were mentioned, people would instinctively assume that they were experts.
The Martial Arts Conference was targeted at the entire world. Everyone had come to participate in the competition with a clear goal—to defeat the martial artists from Xia Country.
The martial artists in Xia Country also understood this point. If they were defeated by those people from overseas, it would disgrace the martial arts world and their ancestors.
So, from the start of the elimination competition, not a single team had come from Xia Country.
The elimination competition was about to end, and there was still not a single Xia Country team to be seen. People had almost lost hope.
That was when Wang Zhixing and the others arrived.
Everyone at the tournament was excited.
In fact, after Wang Zhixing and the others had completed their registration, the major corporations that sponsored this competition had immediately launched into discussion.
To the corporations, money always came first.
After some discussion, the corporations spread the news regarding Wang Zhixing’s group.
When the end of the elimination competition was near, there wouldn’t be much of a crowd. Currently, every seat was filled, but that wouldn’t last for long.
Now that people heard that a team from Xia Country was participating in the competition, it instantly attracted attention.
A lowest-tier ticket cost from 1,000 to 10,000 dollars, which was ten times more than before. Most importantly, it was still difficult to get a ticket.
This was because everyone wanted to see how Xia Country’s team would be beaten up.
This time, the corporations had made a huge profit.
At the same time, the martial arts world of Xia Country, which was tens of thousands of miles away, also received this news.
There was an uproar.
It instantly caused a commotion.
They quickly sent people, hoping to bring the team back before the competition began.
However, Wang Zhixing’s group would not wait for them.
After Wang Zhixing understood the reason, he was naturally furious.
Putting aside their identity as immortal cultivators, simply as citizens of the Xia Country, they absolutely could not bring shame to their people. They had to hold their heads high.
Since they wish to see us lose, there is no need to hold back.
Wang Zhixing looked at the rules of the competition. They were just what he wanted.
There was a rule in the competition that allowed one to carry weapons. However, the weapons were not modern firearms but cold weapons.
Since they could carry weapons, casualties were allowed.
After studying the rules, Wang Zhixing discussed them with his team members and began their match-up.
The system quickly matched them to a team.
[Peak Giant]
This was the name of the opposing team.
They had arrived two days earlier than Wang Zhixing and company. They currently hold 30 points, from six wins and four losses—neither good nor bad results.
There were originally 10 of them, but one of them died during the fight, so there were only a group of nine now.
If they were to encounter someone of equal strength, they would definitely be at a disadvantage.
After matching up with the team, Wang Zhixing chose “individual” under the confirmed icon, meaning that he would fight alone against an entire team.
[Please wait…]
After pressing the individual icon, some text appeared on the screen.
At this time, a group of burly men cried out loud at the tenth level’s resting area.
“This Immortal Sect is so arrogant. A newly registered team chose to fight us with just an individual. They must want to die,” a dark-faced man said loudly.
“Then we’ll torture them slowly and make them remember our names,” one of the team members said with a sinister smile.
Hence, they immediately agreed to the match.
After Wang Zhixing received the other party’s agreement, Wang Zhixing immediately pressed the confirmation button and waited for the system’s arrangement.
[Please wait…]
[Please wait…]
…
A minute later.
[Greetings, Immortal Sect. Your competition is in Arena 3. As it is an individual challenge, please select your competing member within 120 seconds.
If you cannot select a member within the allocated time, the system will immediately select someone to take the stage.]
Wang Zhixing looked at the group and said, “Which one of you wants to go first?”
“Me!”
“Me!”
“Me!”
…
Everyone wanted to go first.
Seeing how enthusiastic everyone was, Wang Zhixing said, “There can only be one person participating in the competition. Since everyone wants to go, we can only hand it over to the system.”
No one had any objections to this.
Two minutes later, the system made a random selection.
[The contestant for this round is Long Hair. The match will begin in about 20 minutes. Please make preparations in advance.
If you fail to reach the designated venue and are more than three minutes late, you will be forfeited from the match.
Immortal Sect, please take note.]
After reading the message, Wang Zhixing called Long Hair’s real name.
“Mao Zhiguo, you will be the first this time. Give them a good beating up and teach them a lesson. The people of Xia Country are not pushovers,” Wang Zhixing said as he clenched his fists.
“Then, it’s fine even if I kill him?” Mao Zhiguo asked.
“It’s fine. But remember to control your strength well. Don’t destroy the arena.”
“Professor Wang, don’t worry! I know what to do.”
…
In the competition area.
The huge screen refreshed the teams that were about to compete.
[Arena No. 3, Immortal Sect (Xia country) VS Peak Giant (Nuscheka)]
When the audience saw the two words “Xia Country,” the entire venue erupted.
In the audience, everyone’s faces were filled with excitement, shock, and joy.
