Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 1358 - 1408: Consecutive Wins in 2 Matches
Chapter 1358: Chapter 1408: Consecutive Wins in 2 Matches
The second round of poisoning caused a certain amount of trouble for the White Miao because the poison of the Frost Centipede was very difficult to counteract. The Frost Centipede’s attribute was extreme cold, and to quickly detoxify, it required not the most yang items but rather things of the same extreme cold. This was quite difficult to find. Tianbao and others figured this out and used the Frost Centipede to deal with the White Miao.
But they didn’t expect one thing, Li Yifei could compress the poison, or even forcibly expel it. So, in this second round, the self-assured Tianbao and others achieved nothing.
Amidst the crowd gathering, Li Yifei stood there, with Na Yi holding his arm. Once the tribesmen heard it was the Frost Centipede, their faces changed dramatically, clamoring and shouting as if a serious event had occurred. In the eyes of Tianbao and others, it seemed their scheme had succeeded, but in reality...
Li Yifei returned to his own people, listened to Bunong and others, and directly asked for a knife. He made cuts horizontally and vertically on the wound inflicted by the Frost Centipede, enlarging the wound, then sat cross-legged. Na Yi supported his arm, and Li Yifei operated his True Qi to expel the poison directly.
Watching the blood carrying ice shards flow out, Na Yi couldn’t stop her tears. The tribesmen were also very worried and were amazed by such a miraculous ability of his, hence they clamored and shouted one after another.
Two minutes later, Li Yifei opened his eyes, exhaled deeply, and the breath he exhaled was shockingly cold, forming a white mist.
Na Yi hurriedly asked, "Is it alright now?"
"It’s alright!" Li Yifei smiled and said.
Na Yi immediately picked up the gauze to bandage his hand, her actions very gentle and careful.
Bunong and others let out a sigh of relief; Li Yifei resolved the poison of the Frost Centipede himself, otherwise, if they had to resolve it, this round might have been lost.
The moment to decide victory in the second round arrived. This time, Li Yifei did not delay but stepped out directly, and the tribesmen automatically made way for him.
On Tianbao’s side, the detoxification was still slow, and they were very cautious, worried about being schemed against like before. Fortunately, this Outer Worm was not difficult to undo, but not easy either. It required inserting another Worm into Song An’s body to let the two fight each other inside, one chasing the other.
It sounds easy, but for Song An, this was the biggest torment. A worm wriggling inside was already unbearable, and now there were two, chasing and battling each other. This was his body, not a sports field. As the two worms wriggled, they caused him great agony because the skin of the human body is a whole, and these worms forcibly passing through was akin to peeling his skin. Song An’s limbs were held down, a wooden stick was placed in his mouth again to prevent him from biting off his tongue, producing a muffled sound.
Tianbao wiped the sweat from his forehead, straightened up, and felt slightly relieved only after seeing the two worms converge on one spot. As for Song An, he had long passed out from the pain several times, fainting and then painfully waking, over and over.
Listening to the tribesmen’s discussions, Tianbao felt more and more that something was wrong. He quickly turned his head and saw Li Yifei slowly walking out from the opposite White Miao side.
What? Tianbao thought he was seeing things, rubbed his eyes quickly, but saw Li Yifei had already walked several meters.
Upon confirming again, Tianbao’s heart sank, and he pointed at Li Yifei in disbelief, saying, "This... how is this possible, how could he neutralize the poison so fast?"
Li Yifei stood about ten meters away from the Black Miao side, with his legs apart, hands behind his back, in his favorite standing pose, his head slightly tilted, eyes slightly narrowed, looking at the Black Miao group. His voice wasn’t loud, but it was enough for them to hear clearly: "It seems... you lost!"
"Impossible! The poison of the Frost Centipede, how could it be neutralized so quickly, you..." Tianbao shook his head like a rattle drum, completely in disbelief. The Black Miao side also mostly didn’t believe it. The poison of the Frost Centipede could be neutralized, but it was very difficult. The materials couldn’t be found in a short time, especially in summer, one of the detoxifying materials was simply unavailable. How could the opposite side neutralize the poison so quickly?
He incredulously rushed towards Li Yifei, grabbed Li Yifei’s arm, and violently tore off the meticulous bandage Na Yi had put on. He glanced at the wound, seeing the wound expanded, but almost scabbed over, indeed with no signs of poisoning anymore.
"This... how is this possible!" Tianbao couldn’t believe it and continued to shake his head, saying, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, how could you neutralize the poison of the Frost Centipede!"
The White Miao tribe began cheering; winning two rounds in a row had already laid the victory. Although there might be another match later, it was no longer related to the outcome, nor to the ownership of Miao Gorge, so their mindset was already very relaxed.
Several clan chiefs came over, saying to Tianbao, "Tianbao, two rounds have been won. Miao Gorge already belongs to us, the White Miao. What more do you have to say?"
"You... how despicable!" Tianbao’s face was distorted. He absolutely could not believe he would lose, but the reality was there. In two consecutive matches, Li Yifei seemed very miserable, but every time he resolved it. In the first instance, Tianbao felt it was his mistake, giving away a victory, but this second time, he absolutely wouldn’t believe the other side detoxified through legitimate means. Seeing Li Yifei’s wounded arm, he understood. "Using forced detoxification to resolve the Frost Centipede’s poison, you’re cheating! It’s a foul!"
"Old fool, are you being a sore loser? Accusing us of cheating? Here, with over a thousand eyes watching, when did we not win against you fairly and openly in both instances?" Chief Atu glared angrily and said.
Brown had even more of a desire to rush over and twist Tianbao’s neck, shouting, "Enough with the nonsense, old Tianbao. Our side has long neutralized the Worm’s poison, and your man is still lying on the ground. It’s two out of three victories, Miao Gorge already belongs to us!"
The White Miao people were in high spirits, while the clansmen of the Black Miao had lost Miao Gorge and faced two consecutive defeats, feeling very disappointed.
Tianbao took a few steps back, his face twisted with rage, his teeth nearly shattering from the intensity of his anger. He was so unwilling to accept the two losses; according to the plan, they should have been the ones winning.
"Mr. Song! Get up quickly! We’ve... we’ve lost." When Tianbao was at a loss, he heard Song An groaning a few times and waking up. He rushed over to pull Song An up, while informing him of what had happened.
Song An had suffered immensely from the torture of the Worm, the tearing pain causing him to break out in a cold sweat. Luckily, the Worm was killed, but he still felt terrible, every movement causing intense pain in many places.
"What are you doing? Didn’t you say that this Worm would definitely be able to defeat Li Yifei?" Upon hearing that they had lost, Song An felt a murderous impulse, grabbed Tianbao’s clothes, and was about to make a move.
Tianbao quickly said, "It’s not my fault, it’s the other party’s trick. Otherwise, how could we have lost?"
Song An glanced at Li Yifei, and just the act of turning his head made his whole body ache, making him feel even more resentful.
Letting go of Tianbao, Song An said furiously, "What should we do then? We’ve lost twice in a row, and Li Yifei is still fine. Do you want me to make a move now?"
Tianbao hurriedly said, "No, we’ve lost the Holy Land, but there’s still a match for honor soon, so... it won’t ruin your big plan. Just... our Black Miao might not have the Holy Land for a long time."
Song An’s eyes turned, his face gloomy, staring at Tianbao. After a while, he said sinisterly, "Do you have confidence for the third match?"
Tianbao said, "Yes, absolutely. For the third match, I... I will let the Sacred Beetle appear. Although it suffered some injuries, I’ve used the secret medicine to awaken its potential. After a night of nurturing, it’s ready for battle, but..."
"But what? Tell me everything at once."
"But after using it this time, this potential Worm King will die!"
"Use it once if needed. You must injure him at the very least, otherwise, if you ruin my big plan, I won’t spare you!"
Over on this side, they were plotting, while Li Yifei wasn’t worried, knowing there was still one more match, he had learned that even if he won, there would be a third match.
Returning, Li Yifei watched as Song An and Tianbao conspired together, saying, "For the third match, the opponents will certainly bring out their strongest Worm!"
Bunong, knowing more, understood the trials and tribulations between the opposing trial person and Li Yifei, so he reminded, "We... also have preparations, but it might injure someone. In this third match... you must be extra cautious, Yifei!"
Li Yifei nodded, "Hmm, I will."
Na Yi once again finished bandaging Li Yifei’s right hand, her brows furrowed in anger as she looked at the opposite side, full of resentment, "The Black Miao are detestable, Yifei, be careful."
"Hmm, wait for me here, I’ll be back in a moment."
The third match began, and Song An was barely able to enter the ring, but the overwhelming anger in his heart pushed him to walk over. Before coming, he had already taken a pill, one of Tianbao’s most precious pills, said to render one immune to all poisons, a legacy from Tianbao’s ancestors, kept in a jade box for years, taken out for Song An’s safety this time.
In the third match, both internal and external Worms could be chosen, naturally, White Miao chose internal Worm, while Black Miao chose external Worm.
As Li Yifei walked over, he felt a familiar aura, his brows slightly furrowed. Li Yifei immediately thought of the black Worm from yesterday, seemingly they planned to use that Worm again.
Bunong personally implanted the Worm within Song An, not concerning himself with victory or defeat, but hoping to suppress the opponent nonetheless.
As the opponent released the Sacred Beetle, many Worm Breeders immediately turned pale, even the ordinary clansmen of the Black Miao were shocked. The Sacred Beetle had reached the threshold of the Worm King; if it devoured Butterfly Xiaowu yesterday, it could have ascended to the Worm King. But a half-step Worm King hadn’t been seen for many years.
Bunong knew the situation with the Sacred Beetle, and also knew that Li Yifei had injured it yesterday, but seeing the Sacred Beetle appear still made him slightly change color. Other clan chiefs who were unaware of this matter immediately became concerned, and several chiefs urged Bunong to call Li Yifei back. This third match would not determine the outcome, further injury to Li Yifei would not be good.
