Chapter 53: Don't Kill Him!

  （0053）

  However, Yan Baoqing was absolutely unwilling to admit defeat. He was absolutely unwilling to be defeated at the hands of Xia Xingxiao, and he was even more unwilling to be defeated by a third-rate soldier. Suddenly, he pulled out a small bottle from his pocket, opened the cap, and popped a pill into his mouth. The pill dissolved into scorching energy that filled his entire body.

  "Dan medicine!"

  Xia Xingxiao immediately reacted.

  This damn Yan Baoqing actually still has dan medicine on him.

  Just as he was about to capture him, unexpectedly, he actually replenished his true energy with elixir. It seems that he will have to spend more time and more true energy to capture him. However, Xia Xing didn't worry at all about Yan Baoqing turning the tables. Unless, he could eat elixirs like candy. In fact, even if that were the case, he would still be defeated without a doubt!

  After humans entered the starry sky world, the cultivators' world had always been entangled with elixirs. In the cultivators' world, there existed all sorts of magical elixirs. Some elixirs could accelerate cultivation progress, while others could revive the dead. However, elixirs were notoriously scarce in quantity and expensive in price, making it difficult for ordinary cultivators to obtain them. This Yan Baoqing actually brought elixirs with him, indicating that he was definitely a person with background.

  For lower-level cultivators, the most common elixirs are Xiao Huandan and Da Huandan. Both of these elixirs can quickly heal injuries and rapidly recover a considerable amount of true energy. If I'm not mistaken, Yan Baoqing swallowed should be Xiao Huandan. Unfortunately, even Xiao Huandan couldn't save him.

  "The swan lands on the shore!"

  Xia Xingxiao countered with a move of the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms.

  Yan Baoqing suddenly felt pressure like a mountain, unable to resist, and could only continue to retreat.

  As a result, Xia Xingxiao took advantage of the situation and launched another move, "Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms", forcing Yan Baoqing to continue retreating. To avoid Xia Xingxiao's palm wind, Yan Baoqing had no choice but to burn his true energy to accelerate his flying technique. As a result, in just three or five seconds, the little bit of true energy that Yan Baoqing had recovered with the help of the Small Return Pill was consumed again. Burning true energy is absolutely not something ordinary people can handle. Helpless, Yan Baoqing could only swallow another Small Return Pill.

  However, relying on the elixir to recover his true energy, he didn't have a chance to counterattack. Because Xia Xingxiao's Dragon Subduing Eighteen Palms, one palm after another, hit him so that he could only continuously retreat and had no other possibility. His true energy could only be used to propel the flight technique, accelerate the flight technique, and could no longer be used to perform other martial arts.

  That Xia Xingxiao, who should be cut into a thousand pieces, was like a mechanical person, constantly repeating the most monotonous martial arts moves. Either it's Flying Dragon in the Sky, or Seeing Dragon in the Field, or Hong Jian Yu Lu, there is no variation at all. And these martial arts moves, Yan Baoqing simply had no chance to counterattack.

  "Ah!"

  Xia Xingxiao suddenly changed his move.

  All right! Great Power King Kong Fist!

  "Damn it!"

  Yan Baoqing immediately realized something was wrong and subconsciously retreated desperately.

  Yan Baoqing is now somewhat fearful of the Great Power Vajra Fist. As soon as Xia Xingxiao uses the Great Power Vajra Fist, his heart can't help but palpitate. There's no way around it, Xia Xingxiao that bastard, every time he strikes, it's with four times the force, who can withstand it? His Stone Transformation Skill, if it's constantly crushed by the Great Power Vajra Fist like this, will probably be defeated soon. If even his Qi Sea is scattered, then he'll be done for.

  "Boom!"

  Yan Baoqing, who was in a daze and had lost his focus, was thoroughly beaten and sent flying.

  In the midst of panic, Yan Baoqing couldn't think much and hastily swallowed the third small Huandan. Otherwise, he wouldn't even have the true energy to cast his flying technique. If he couldn't cast his flying technique, when Xia Xingxiao caught up with him again, he would really be done for.

  He had only three small pills, and they were all wasted like this. These small pills were specially given to him by the elders of the family, hoping that he would use them in the competition to help him gain more honor. But unexpectedly, today, in order to save his life, he had to use them all up in one breath. His inner depression can be imagined.

  The use of elixirs must be spaced out over a period of time. Otherwise, the efficacy will have diminishing returns, with each successive dose being less effective than the last. It's like this: if you continuously swallow three Small Returning Elixirs in a row, the second one can only exhibit 50% of its medicinal properties, while the third one can only exhibit 25%. As you can imagine, most of the medicinal properties are actually wasted.

  However, Yan Baoqing couldn't not take the medicine. If he didn't take it, he would be finished. This Xia Xingxiao was simply a perverted and violent freak. With over three tons of force, punch after punch came at him, even if he were Daluo Jinxian, he wouldn't be able to withstand such heavy blows! As long as he could keep his own life safe, what did the elixir matter?

  "Huh?"

  "Heavens, am I seeing things?"

  "Yan Baoqing was actually knocked flying! How is that possible?"

  The people inside the arena were stunned and amazed, while those outside were even more shocked. They all saw that Yan Baoqing was really defeated this time, thoroughly and utterly. He would never have a chance to make a comeback again.

  Yan Baoqing, who was so confident and sure of his victory, was unexpectedly defeated by a third-rate soldier. The result was unbearable for many people. Even Li Yuzi, the winner, found it hard to accept at first. It was just too unexpected. To Li Yuzi, it felt like a dream.

  However, this is not the result. Xia Xingxiao caught up and kicked Yan Baoqing's body with a series of feet. What forgiveness, what generosity, letting go, he simply didn't have that awareness.

  At this time, Yan Baoqing's last true energy was exhausted, and he couldn't even use his flying technique. He could only be beaten. As a result, his body, in front of Xia Xingxiao's swift and agile legs, was like a defeated broom, almost kicked into an unhuman shape.

  Fortunately, the leg itself didn't have much strength, so it didn't kick him to death. In the end, this loser fell heavily from mid-air and landed on the rocky surface of Aoye Xing, bouncing a few times before lying still.

  "My god! Isn't this the Shadow Step? How can he also...?"

  Someone let out a low cry of surprise, with a look of astonishment on their face. Everyone present recognized it - wasn't this the Shadowless Kick? Just now, Yan Baoqing had just used it, how did Xia Xingxiao also know it? The legendary Shadowless Kick, if it didn't kick its opponent into a pulp, would absolutely not stop. Was Xia Xingxiao going to kick Yan Baoqing into a pulp?

  Li Yuzi was also shocked and hastily called out: "Xia Xingxiao, don't kill him!"

  He never thought he would say such a thing. He was just thinking that when necessary, he must shout loudly to Yan Baoqing not to kill Xia Xingxiao. Even if it requires paying a certain price, it is acceptable. He cannot put Xia Xingxiao on the edge of death just because his team needs a substitute.

  It turned out that the actual situation was completely reversed. He actually wanted to shout at Xia Xingxiao not to kill Yan Baoqing. With Li Yuzhi's intelligence, it was also difficult for him to understand what had happened in between. The only thing he could confirm was that Xia Xingxiao should never be treated as an ordinary third-rate soldier. It would be better to treat him as a pervert.

  At this time, Yan Baoqing was already on his last breath, almost about to stop breathing. He lay on the dark rock, feeling that one of his feet had already entered the underworld. His dantian was in a mess. The meridians were empty and hollow, without any true qi. It's estimated that there wouldn't be enough time for him to recover even if he spent several days meditating.

  Xia Xing Xiao fell beside Yan Baoqing and said in a low voice, "Do you want to continue?"

  Yan Baoqing's face was extremely unsightly. His eyes stared fixedly at Xia Xingxiao's face, as if he wanted to carve his features deeply into his mind. His throat rolled for a long time before he spoke in a hoarse voice: "No need, we admit defeat."

  As soon as this was said, Huang Wei and Jin Hai both let out a big sigh of relief. They were worried that if Yan Baoqing didn't admit defeat, Xia Xingxiao would come after them to kill them. With Yan Baoqing's skills, he couldn't withstand Xia Xingxiao's powerful punches, how could the two of them bear it? If things went wrong, their lives would be lost here.

  Xia Xingxiao withdrew his fist and flew back to Li Yuzhi's side.

  At this time, the three big men, Buddha Head, Buddha Niche, and Buddha Ancestor, looked at his expression, which was completely different from before. Their eyes all had a hint of admiration and envy. Even if their brains were not good for use, they still admired the strong from the bottom of their hearts.

  Li Yuzi said with a strange expression: "Xia Xingxiao, were you already practicing before joining the army?"

  "What do you think?"

  Li Yuzi thought it was impossible. If Xia Xingxiao had started cultivating before joining the army, then the light brain test would have detected it. For those who had already cultivated, the federal army had special arrangements and would not mix with ordinary new recruits. Since the light brain did not detect anything, it proved that he indeed started cultivating after joining the army.

  Li Yuzhi took out the blank leave card and handed it to Xia Xinxiao, saying sincerely: "This is your reward. Now, it belongs to you."

  Xia Xingxiao took over the holiday card and said casually: "Tomorrow's game, will it continue?"

  Li Yuzi glanced at Yan Baoqing, inwardly sighing in amusement. He thought Xia Xinxiao's question was superfluous. The team of Blazing War God had been crippled by you alone, how could they still compete tomorrow? Wasn't this a joke? He shook his head and said, "I reckon it won't be necessary."

  With Yan Baoqing's injury, he needs at least half a month to recover. He has internal injuries and there is no shortcut to treat them, only slow recuperation. Therefore, tomorrow's match, he absolutely cannot participate. Adding the also injured Zhou Fa and Liu Cheng, Flame War God already has three main players injured. What can they do except give up?
