C83 Request from Xiang Shan
When the news of the Empress Sikong birthday feast inviting the students of the three rankings spread out, a storm of blood and gore immediately arose in the Martial Academy.
The life and death arena was packed with people. New people would appear on the rankings of Human Ranking s and Heavenly Ranking s every day. The elimination of old people meant death.
Fang Bai did not care about what was happening outside, he trained all day, and would occasionally try to refine Soul Nurturing Pill.
Xiao Yu's words were not wrong. A month later, Fang Bai finally managed to cultivate the Soul Nurturing Pill, and the price was three hundred sets of herbal medicine, with ninety thousand Contribution Points.
The price was heavy and the rewards were generous.
The Soul Nurturing Pill that Fang Bai refined was four to five times purer than those that were sold in Pill Pavilion, and it was difficult to estimate how beneficial it would be to the Soul. If the Soul Nurturing Pill was sold, the price would increase by at least ten times.
In these two months, he used more than a thousand drops of Spirit Liquid and finally managed to raise his cultivation to the peak of the seven layers of gathering qi. Back then, Xiao Yu had managed to achieve only three hundred drops of the Spirit Liquid in half a month.
This did not mean that Fang Bai's talent was worse than Xiao Yu's. It was his nine Dantian s that required a Zhenqi that was too robust.
There was still a month until the Empress Sikong's birthday feast. Fang Bai was prepared to make good use of this month, and it would be best if he could break through his eight layers of Qi gathering.
But right at this moment, Duan Tian arrived. His first sentence made him frown a brows.
"Your Highness wants you to challenge Sikong Yuyang and knock him down!"
If he remembered correctly, it would take Sikong Yuyang less than a month to reach in a year at the Human Ranking s. Then, he would naturally become a Martial House Disciple and break through his Ning Shen Stage.
When it was time for the Empress Sikong s, Sikong Yuyang would bring out his identity as a Martial House Disciple, and his Ning Shen Stage cultivation level would be much higher than when he lost the bet previously.
Sikong Yuyang firmly stood on the side of the Eighth Prince in the battle of imperial power. Of course, Xiang Chu did not want to see this kind of situation.
Within the Qi Gathering Realm, finding a person who could defeat Sikong Yuyang would not be an easy task, and even if there was, no one would be willing to offend the Empress Sikong's most beloved nephew.
Fang Bai had undoubtedly become Xiang Chu's ideal candidate, since he had offended him once!
But Fang Bai didn't think that way. Unless he had no other choice, he did not want to offend the Empress Sikong.
"Your Highness means that you will decide on your own!"
It was all up to him again!
Currently, the entire Imperial City had branded him as the Second Prince. Letting him go challenge Sikong Yuyang now, was undoubtedly challenging the Sikong Family, challenging the Empress Sikong himself.
No matter what the outcome would be, the Second Prince would never escape responsibility. He would definitely seek revenge on the Empress Sikong, it was not wise at all!
With Xiang Chu's intelligence, he shouldn't have done such a stupid thing.
At this time, Fang Bai's mind suddenly lit up.
If the Empress Sikong's birthday feast had other plans, and Xiang Chu just happened to know of this news, he would retaliate at all costs.
Defeating Sikong Yuyang at this time, he only had two results in the future. Completely destroyed, broken, and reborn!!
No matter which outcome it was, at least it would deal a heavy blow to the Empress Sikong and Sikong Family at the moment. If his mind was in a mess, a flaw would appear, and Xiang Chu would be able to seize the opportunity!
Such powerful methods!
Fang Bai suddenly felt that the water in the Imperial City was too muddy, with his strength, would he be able to get out of this muddy water?
"Brother Fang, I really can't find a suitable candidate. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have troubled you." Duan Tian laughed bitterly: "Just one month ago, I also boarded the Human Ranking!"
"How much longer does Sikong Yuyang need to become a Martial House Disciple?"
"Twenty-one days!"
"Alright!" Fang Bai said indifferently: "Give me fifteen days, spread the news first!"
"You agreed?"
"En!"
Since they were going to offend him, then they might as well be a little ruthless. Beating Sikong Yuyang down the Human Ranking would definitely find the Sikong Family to seek revenge, why not just directly kill him!
With his current strength, he had a high chance of defeating Sikong Yuyang, and it would be impossible to kill him in the life and death arena.
Then, he needed to break through his eight layers of Qi gathering within half a month. At that time, he would have a seventy percent chance of killing Sikong Yuyang.
The news quickly spread across the Martial Academy and everyone was flustered. More than half of the names on the Human Ranking had changed in just two months, but the top ten names had not been touched, other than for Duan Tian, who had just risen to the seventh place.
Sikong Yuyang was third on the Human Ranking, and not only was his strength outstanding, no one dared to provoke the forces behind him. Since the day he ascended to third on the Human Ranking, no one had challenged him.
Now, Fang Bai resolutely challenged him. The time was set to be five days before Sikong Yuyang would become a disciple.
When Sikong Yuyang heard the news, he thought he had heard wrongly, but was later enraged. He did not know that the reason Fang Bai was able to pass Sky climbing Tower was because he was a Heavenly Refinement Cauldron, and thought that Fang Bai was strong to that extent.
Sky climbing Tower might not be able to explain his true strength, but it was more or less possible!
Now that two months had passed, Sikong Yuyang's cultivation was still at the same level. He was waiting for the time to rush into the Ning Shen Stage, but Fang Bai would definitely not do the same.
With this, Sikong Yuyang's chances of winning became even smaller.
The person being challenged could not reject the Human Ranking s challenge for any reason. Otherwise, the person would be considered as giving up.
Sikong Yuyang could not afford to lose, at least not at this time, "I'll make a trip back to the Imperial City!" After throwing that sentence, Sikong Yuyang rushed straight towards the Imperial City.
After receiving the news, Mu Qiuyang was startled for a long time, then erupted into hearty laughter: "Fang Bai, Fang Bai, ah Fang Bai, let's see how you're going to die this time!"
Regardless of the outcome of the challenge, Fang Bai was dead for sure!
If he lost, Sikong Yuyang would kill him; if he won, the Sikong Family would remove him at any cost!
When Bai Qianxue heard the news, her face was still expressionless, like a glacier that would never melt.
Somewhere deep within the Martial Academy, a Lady In Blue was nestling beside the Men in Black, and she said in a low voice: "Regarding this matter, what do you think?"
"He's dangerous!" Men in Black's face revealed a rare look of solemness.
"Then what are you going to do?"
Men in Black's gentle gaze fell on Lady In Blue and he softly said: "birthday feast, I'll go with him!"
"Mm, I'll go too!"
Lady In Blue lightly nodded her head, and did not say much else. She looked into the distance and asked, "What makes you so special that you could make Master place so much importance on you?"
Men in Black was the Tian Xing who had fought with Fang Bai before, and Lady In Blue was the Tian Yue who accompanied him!
Tian Xing, Tian Yue, it was as if they were a pair!
In the past half month, the scene of the Martial Academy's bloody battle had become even more fierce. The Human Ranking and the Heavenly Ranking had completely changed their appearances, and everyone was looking forward to the battle.
At the same time, Fang Bai was currently trying to break through the eight layers of Qi gathering. The Spirit Liquid swallowed him whole, while the Zhenqi surged endlessly within the meridian, the aura from his body constantly rising.
"Still not?"
Fang Bai wrinkled his eyebrows as he took out the Ling Ling Dan in his arms. After being stunned for a moment, he took a mouthful and over 40 drops of the Spirit Liquid were consumed at the same time!
The spirit energy around him moved, with Fang Bai as the center, the entire room was filled with spirit energy, it was even denser than the Tian Ji Sect!
