Chapter 81: Bloody Hatred
Chapter 81: Bloody Hatred
'Don't worry, I will never let dual cultivation consume me. Don't forget I am a swordsman. There is nothing in this world that I can't cut and if there is, it only means I am not strong enough to cut it. Even emotions can be cut apart.'
'But, I am a swordsman. If I want to cut something, only then my sword will cut. I don't want to cut my hunger for power. That's why my sword never cuts this hunger.' Qin answered her through his thoughts.
"Why do you have such hunger? It's not even related to your dream or goal, right?" Qiao Fu got even more curious about it and hurriedly asked. But, she suddenly turned silent when Qin didn't reply.
But after a few minutes, Qin answered 'When my godmother died in my arms, she told me that I have mysteries surrounding me and I can't find the answers if I stay weak. She told me if I can get stronger, I can do whatever I want. I can also search for the answers.'
'But, do you know the funny thing about this? I don't even know what the questions are. Until I started my journey, I never found a single question. But, now, I have my first question. Who are my parents? I found they are alive but who are they?'
'And, as soon as I got the question, I also got the clue. And, the clue was to get stronger. Yes, the question that was searched has an answer but the clue is simply to get stronger. Godmother was right. If I want the answers, I must get stronger.'
'That's why I don't let my sword cut the hunger of strength. Dual Cultivation, Devil Cultivation, these are just the path suitable for someone with a hunger me like.'
After that, Qin became silent. Qiao Fu also remained silent. And half an hour passed in such silence.
"Everyone, I, the head of the outer-court welcome everyone for the grand competition of the Outer-Court Disciples. Today, we have a special guest. The first genius of the Battle Dragon Sect, the son of the Sect Master, and the young master of the Battle Dragon Sect is here to watch the competition."
As soon as those words entered Qin's ears, his eyes shrunk. The intense killing intent burst out for a moment. But, it only appeared for less than a second. Few people noticed this killing intent. And, this includes the young master of the Battle Dragon Sect, Jin Hao and Guan Xing.
While Jin Pao had curiosity in his eyes as he glanced at the room of participants, Guan Xing had a smirk on his face. This smirk just like the killing intent only lasted less than a second.
Outside the room,
There was a big stage at the eastern part of the arena. The head elder was an old man with a long white beard. The arena was big but his voice could be heard in every corner with the help of the talisman. These talismans were bigger and louder compared to the talisman that Tan Ming and Qin used.
And, the head elder just needs to attach the talisman to his body while speaking. Near him, there was a red sofa where a young man was sitting. He was in his white outfit while wearing those golden shoes. Beside him, there were a few more chairs where other elders were sitting.
The Elder Su was sitting next to Jin Hao but there was some unspeakable force colliding between them.
The head elder raised his head and spoke "All of the participants, enter the battleground!"
Following his words, all of the participants from different rooms walked towards the battleground. The ground was big enough to contain more than three thousand participants. When Qin walked out, his eyes fell on the high stage at the eastern part.
When his eyes fell on Jin Hao, he narrowed his eyes. Even though he was controlling his killing intent, it still leaked. But, he hurriedly changed his place as soon as he found it. After all, he didn't want Jin Hao to learn about his existence.
And, his expression got gloomy. He bites his lips and looked at the sky 'It seems you are going to my enemy. I hope you don't regret letting me escape.'
When he saw the girl next to Jin Hao, he instantly recognized her. She was not only beautiful but also the kind person who let him escape. He didn't want to kill her. But, if she is on his side, then there is nothing he can do.
He won't keep his enemies alive. When Qin glanced at them, both of them also find it. But, they didn't find the source. Because before they got alert, he had already moved away. Jin Hao frowned even more.
He didn't understand which outer-court disciple had the killing intent against him. But, his mood only got worse as he thought more about it.
As for the Elder Su, her gaze fell on different disciples and it finally stopped when it fell on Qin. She glanced at him and frowned. She didn't understand why Qin participated in this battle. In her view, Qin was trying to actively challenge Jin Hao.
She couldn't help but sigh. At this rate, Qin will enter his radar very soon. But, Qin didn't care. According to the rewards, if he reaches the top ten he can enter a secret mansion. This mansion was built by the first ancestor of the sect.
And, it was a forbidden zone for the disciples. So, he must enter the top ten. According to Yue Bin, there is a special technique with Light Attribute and Dark Attribute inside the secret Mansion and it is the High-Tier Intent Rank Technique.
And, there are also some secrets of the dragons. Yue Bin wants him to reach the top ten and explore the secrets of the dragons inside the secret mansion. Dragons are legendary creatures that are no longer found in this world.
And, even if there are some, they are extremely rare and powerful. Currently, people can only find beasts with dragon powers like Dragon Dog, Dragon Snake, and Dragon Lion. It is said that dragons are very lustful creatures and often breed with different species.
While thinking about this, he wondered if the God of Sex, Claire's husband was as lustful as these dragons. After all, he had the harem of thousands of women.
And, this will be fun interaction with other disciples. He doesn't want to stay alone all the time especially when his dream is to have a big family. As for showing off, he doesn't care. None of these people know his true strength, so if it comes to the final act, he wouldn't mind using his true strength.
As for arrogant people, he has the support of Elder Chen. He just hopes that Jin Hao doesn't find out about him right now. He still hasn't surpassed his dad. And, killing Jin Hao directly would be too much of a blessing for him.
He still hasn't forgotten the pain he suffered when everyone around him died. He still hasn't forgotten the face of his godmother when she died.
'I'm sorry, Qin. You are little a child. It will be hard to survive but don't give up hope. As long as you have hope, you can do everything. My child, I'm sorry for leaving you.'
Even in the face of death, his godmother was worried about him. She didn't care about her own death. But, she was worried about his life. Even though it has been six years, it still hurts when he remembers that.
This is why Qin wasn't able to control his killing intent. It was too hard. He took a deep breath and listened to the head elder's speech. It was all about the rules and rewards of the competition but most of them already knew about it.
Normally, the rules and the rewards don't change. But, this time extra reward was added. Those who reach the top ten can enter Jin Hao's faction and directly enter the Inner Court without even reaching the Qi Condensation Realm.
This reward was specifically given by Jin Hao himself. This excites many disciples. Because Jin Hao's Mad Dragon Faction was the top faction. The competition in the inner court is many times fiercer than in Outer-Court.
Other disciples can challenge you for the resources and unless you are from the bigger faction, you don't get a chance to refuse. Because even if you are from the bigger faction, you have to participate but if you are from the bigger faction, others won't target you.
It's just like how the rogue cultivators do not dare challenge the sect disciples. Because there is a whole sect behind them. Since there were more than three thousand disciples, the first stage was divided into three parts.
Each winner must participate in the first stage three times. Each loser will be disqualified directly. And, if you win for all three rounds, you can head to the second stage.
Each of them was given a number. Qin's number was 2389 and Guan Xing's number was 1278. Qin also saw Luo Xue and her number was 2356.
And, the first battle was between numbers 1 and 35.
