Chapter 66: Fighting for fame and fortune
Chapter 66: Fighting for fame and fortune
The phantom is born in the desolate mountains and wilderness. Its true form is a wisp of smoke, illusory and ethereal.
In order to grow stronger, the ghost is eager to find a flesh and blood body to possess, so that it can eat crazily with a flesh body.
Generally speaking, the targets chosen by the ghosts are living people.
Fang Guiqi and the woman Zhou You had met are typical examples, and this is also a common choice for virtual heroes.
However, there are exceptions.
Under special circumstances, when the virtual ghost possesses a wild beast, it becomes...a beast ghost.
Although the animal spirits are not very intelligent, their physical strength is higher and their combat power exceeds that of ordinary humanoid spirits.
Due to its special appearance, it cannot sneak into the city like other ghosts and can only wander in the wild looking for prey.
Ordinary people who encounter beasts will surely die, and the end result will be that not even a bone will be left.
Even for a warrior with strong Qi and Blood, it would be a headache to encounter beast spirits in the wild.
Travel caravans disappeared along the way and no one heard from them again, with a large number of them being killed by beast attacks.
"You said this doll killed a beast?"
As Wang Jianxiong spoke, he reached out and pinched Mao Lang's shoulder.
The movement was not fast and everyone could see it clearly. Mao Lang's hair stood on end and he bared his teeth and dodged.
However, even though he retreated as fast as lightning, he still couldn't escape and was caught by Wang Jianxiong.
"Amazing bones, a natural material for martial arts."
Wang Jianxiong touched the joint and couldn't help but exclaim, "Mao Laoliu, you are so lucky."
Whether the foundation is good or not can be seen by just touching it.
Mao Lang's talent is one in a thousand, with top bone structure. He is destined to practice boxing and martial arts, and will achieve extraordinary success in the future.
Why does Mao Laoliu want to show off?
It is no exaggeration to say that two martial artists would fight to the death to compete for a disciple like Mao Lang.
"He is just a powerful warrior, how can he kill the beast?"
When Wang Jianxiong touched Mao Lang's bones, he was still struggling. The strength in his body was rolling and rushing, but he couldn't bounce off his palm.
The boy looked wild and unruly, his expression becoming increasingly ferocious.
"Don't move, Mao Lang. He won't hurt you."
Mao Laoliu's words made the unruly boy stop struggling.
It turns out that Mao Lang was not raised by his parents, but grew up in the deep mountains and forests.
After he was born, he was wandered in the wilderness and grew up on his mother's milk. He imitated the wild beasts in running and fighting, and developed strength without any training.
Before meeting Mao Laoliu, although he had a human form, his actions were no different from those of a beast.
"I was also lucky. When I went into the mountains to look for a medicinal herb, I met Mao Lang who was besieged by a pack of wolves."
"The leader of that pack of wild wolves is a beast demon!"
With the power of animal spirit, it is natural for him to take the position of leader of the wolf pack.
Mao Lang has amazing talent and has mastered the power, making him equal to the King of Beasts. An ordinary pack of wolves would definitely not be his match.
The beast spirit led a pack of wolves to attack fiercely, chasing him all the way and almost tearing him into pieces.
Mao Laoliu saw that it was a beast spirit and rescued Mao Lang in time.
The beast was a small character and did not dare to face the martial artist. He sacrificed the wolf pack to stop Mao Laoliu and escaped by himself.
Later, Mao Lang recovered under careful care and became a disciple of Mao Laoliu.
Mao Laoliu discovered that he had extraordinary physical abilities and was a natural talent for martial arts, so he immediately taught him everything he knew.
As soon as this wild kid entered the sect, he skipped the promotion procedures of the outer and inner courtyards and directly became Mao Laoliu's trusted disciple.
"Mao Lang is also very hardworking. He has mastered the entry-level boxing technique, the Vajra Fist, in just one month."
Mao Lang already had a strong foundation, and his strength improved after he mastered the boxing skills. One night, he left the martial arts hall alone without leaving a single word.
Mao Laoliu's disciples and apprentices all thought that he had escaped, and complained that they had raised an ungrateful person and had wasted all their efforts and secret medicines.
Is it true that the boy who lives with wild beasts is so wild that he cannot be tamed and has to return to the mountains and forests?
Six days and six nights later, Mao Lang returned to the martial arts gym, covered in blood and holding the head of the beast. He was back.
"When he returned to the martial arts gym, his body was covered with wounds and most of his blood had been lost."
Mao Laoliu sighed when he mentioned the scene that night.
"This child has pure intentions and knows how to repay kindness. After killing the beast, he stayed in the martial arts hall and learned boxing from me."
Wang Jianxiong sighed after hearing this and said, "You have found a treasure."
Mao Lang is a man of extraordinary talent, and cannot be judged by common sense. He thrives in the wild, and has practiced the Vajra Fist, which doubles the power of his wild strength after it has been tamed.
Even so, he encountered many dangers and crises in the process of killing the beast.
"Mao Laoliu, your disciple is preparing to inherit your legacy, right?"
Wang Jianxiong guessed the other party's intention and revealed Mao Laoliu's purpose on the spot.
This visit was not only to show off, but also to make Mao Lang familiar to the Jianxiong Martial Arts School.
In today's social scene, the participants are all high-level executives of the martial arts school, and they are basically all Qi and Blood warriors.
Except for special cases like Zhou You, all the students in Jianxiong Martial Arts School are inner court disciples, and each of them is a backbone.
Introducing Mao Lang in this kind of situation and telling stories about his deeds of killing beast spirits was intended to make him famous.
"Mao Laoliu, you are indeed a gold rusher, you are very good at calculating."
"Two kilograms of tea leaves and a piece of jade, just to make your apprentice famous."
Wang Jianxiong smiled and shook his head, "Not enough, at least fight with my disciples."
Mao Laoliu readily agreed, "Okay, let's have a sparring match, but don't get serious."
Zhou You was shocked. Did he have to fight on his own?
According to the principle of equal strength, Mao Lang is at the strength level, and those competing with him should also be at the strength level.
Most of the people in Jianxiong Martial Arts School are Qi and Blood warriors, and the only one who meets the requirements is Zhou You.
However, Mao Lang has a record of killing beast spirits, which is by no means comparable to ordinary strong force apprentices.
If Zhou You fights him, he may have to expose his true fighting power and use the Wind Chasing Triple Technique or even... the Tiger Evil.
As it turned out, Zhou You was overthinking, and the owner did not choose him.
"Wu Yanyi, go and give some instructions to the junior fellow students at Jiba Martial Arts School."
A disciple from the inner courtyard walked out, and it was Wu Yanyi, whom Wang Jianxiong had named.
Wu Yanyi's face was pale, as if he was seriously ill, and his voice was weak, "Junior Brother Mao, please."
It turns out that he is the candidate to fight!
Everyone knew that the owner was deliberately letting Mao Lang win in order to make him famous.
Wu Yanyi relied on external force to break through the Qi and blood barrier, which led to impure Qi and blood, damaged the foundation, and caused him to be ill for many years.
Even the apprentices in the martial arts school knew that Senior Brother Wu from the inner courtyard was at best only a half-Qi and Blood warrior.
Wang Jianxiong did not send anyone else but Wu Yanyi, and his intention was very obvious.
The nature of this competition is just an exhibition match. Mao Lang will definitely not suffer any loss, and it is even possible that he will draw with Wu Yanyi.
In this way, in addition to killing the beast spirit, Mao Lang also gained another record of fighting against a Qi and Blood warrior.
Zhou You suddenly thought of something and couldn't help but look in the direction of Wang Jianxiong.
A tiger never suffers a loss. Wang Jianxiong's temperament can be seen from his nickname.
The two parties have reached a private deal, Jianxiong Martial Arts School will make Mao Lang famous, and Jiba Martial Arts School will return the profits.
The words fame and fortune are the most vivid!
I just don’t know what price Mao Laoliu paid for this!
The world of boxing and martial arts is too complicated!
