C390 A Narrow Victory
"Luo Hao actually lost!" Nangong Qianxing could not accept this result. He watched the battle between Qi Zhuohao and Luo Hao. At this moment, he understood that he was no match for Luo Hao. It was even more impossible for him to be a match for Qi Zhuohao. * Hong Long...... *
Initially, after Nangong Qianxing advanced to the Truly Essence Stage, he once again didn't put Qi Zhuohao in his eyes. He was arrogant enough to think that his strength was enough to kill Qi Zhuohao in an instant. But now, it seemed like... That was his wishful thinking.
Nangong Qianxing was also thinking that Qi Zhuohao had defeated Luo Hao in the Martial Examination. If Qi Zhuohao also defeated Luo Hao in the theory examination, then his father would marry Nangong Yudia to Qi Zhuohao. If he treated Qi Zhuohao like that, what would happen if Qi Zhuohao wanted to get even with him in the future?
"No, I have to restore my relationship with Qi Zhuohao, at least before the theory examination ends!" As he was thinking, Nangong Qianxing looked at Luo Hao, who was still in the midst of flying away. He already knew that injuries would not affect Qi Zhuohao's combat strength! Luo Hao was hit by Qi Zhuohao's Hot Flame Palm, although he managed to keep his life. * Hong Long...... *
His body fell to the ground. Luo Hao's face was even paler than Qi Zhuohao's. Lowering his head to look at the eye-catching wound on his abdomen, Luo Hao couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was said that Qi Zhuohao had the Desolate Force, Half Divine Artifact, and Dragon Binding Rope, as well as a true treasure. Qi Zhuohao had yet to use any of those techniques. He knew that... His overall strength was far inferior to Qi Zhuohao's.
Luo Hao was also very helpless. When True Essence Expert faced martial artists from Huayuan, they were usually able to instantly kill them. The disadvantage of the early stages of Vital Spirit having very few Vital Spirit Strength in one's body was almost never above facing martial artists from Huayuan. But when he faced Qi Zhuohao, he was powerless to the extreme!
Luo Hao thought that if he had a majestic Vital Spirit Strength, could he defeat Qi Zhuohao? Luo Hao pondered over this question for a long time, but in the end, he rejected it. If it was a life and death battle, Qi Zhuohao could easily kill him with just a single Dawn Bell.
Luo Hao had heard about the abilities of the Dawn Bell. If Qi Zhuohao's Half Divine Artifact Dawn Bell had the same ability as the legendary supreme treasure, the Dawn Bell... Even if the ability was relatively weak, it was definitely not something the True Essence Expert could resist. The reason was very simple. Even if an ordinary True Essence Expert had the secret technique of the Sonic Defensive Martial Arts, it would not be able to resist it. It was impossible to cultivate it! Items that could defend against sound waves were even rarer!
"Qi Zhuohao, I lost! I have to admit that your combat strength is far above mine!" The battle had ended. Luo Hao had no choice but to lower his proud head. He knew that the reason Qi Zhuohao was able to defeat him was because of the Half Divine Artifact Dawn Bell. However, it was Qi Zhuohao's luck that Qi Zhuohao was able to obtain the Half Divine Artifact Dawn Bell. Luck was also a part of one's strength.
After losing to Qi Zhuohao, Luo Hao's mood could be imagined. At this moment, he was completely pretending to be calm!
Qi Zhuohao did not answer Luo Hao. He put away the Extreme Flame Blade, then turned around and looked at Nangong Bojie. He had won against Luo Hao. He believed that Nangong Bojie would not go back on his word. He had won the martial arts exam, and he only needed to win the third round of the theory exam. He would be able to be with Nangong Yudia.
Thinking back to the battle with Luo Hao, Qi Zhuohao felt helpless. Luo Hao was too strong. He had paid a heavy price. In the end, he won by a narrow margin, but it was worth it. He had taken another big step forward to obtain Nangong Yudia!
"Qi Zhuohao wins this martial arts exam!" Nangong Bojie announced directly. His expression was very complicated. It could not be seen whether he was happy or disappointed. Qi Zhuohao's strength shocked him. The Half Divine Artifact Dawn Bell's Defensive Strength. It also shocked Nangong Bojie.
Unfortunately, Nangong Bojie still couldn't find Qi Zhuohao's ultimate treasure. He was very disappointed about this. As for the fact that Luo Hao had lost to Qi Zhuohao... Nangong Bojie didn't seem to be disappointed. Luo Hao was a true genius. Unfortunately, he was far from being a match for Qi Zhuohao!
Nangong Bojie knew in his heart that Luo Hao had done his best in this battle. Luo Hao had used the Half Divine Artifact, Evil Nether Sword, and the Evil Nether Sword magic, but he was still not Qi Zhuohao's match. Qi Zhuohao had a lot of combat experience, and he had fought a very good battle of attrition.
The True Essence Expert had Vital Spirit Strength, and the power of its martial skills had increased too much. However, the Vital Spirit Strength of an early or even middle stage Vital Spirit expert was relatively rare. This was a disadvantage. In fact, when an early stage Vital Spirit warrior faced an Essence Incarnating Perfection Expert... If they couldn't instantly kill it, or if they could end the battle as soon as possible... If that was the case, then the Essence Incarnating Perfection Expert could very well kill an early Vital Spirit expert.
Of course, an ordinary Essence Incarnating Perfection Expert was like an ant in front of a True Essence Expert. With just a casual palm and a punch, an early Vital Spirit expert would be able to kill the Essence Incarnating Perfection Expert. It was rare to see a heaven-defying genius like Qi Zhuohao!
"Qi Zhuohao, Luo Hao, the martial examination has ended. Both of you are seriously injured. The third round of the theory examination will be held after all of you have recovered from your injuries. All of you can go and heal yourselves!" Nangong Bojie continued to speak and left the martial arts arena with the many True Essence Expert.
After the disciples of Nangong family left one after another, Nangong Qianxing came to Luo Hao's side and supported him as he went back to treat his injuries. Although he wanted to congratulate Qi Zhuohao, he decided not to. Qi Zhuohao didn't like that. His despicable behavior... He had long been rejected by Qi Zhuohao. It was better not to touch Qi Zhuohao's bad luck.
Very quickly, only Qi Zhuohao and Nangong Yudia were left on the huge martial arts field. Nangong Yudia's heart ached when she saw Qi Zhuohao's pale face. At the same time, she was also very excited. Qi Zhuohao wanted to be with her. He had suffered a lot of grievances and suffering.
"Zhuohao, are your injuries alright?" Nangong Yudia finally ran over and grabbed Qi Zhuohao's hand. She knew. Qi Zhuohao was a strange person. No matter how serious his injury was, it was nothing to him. He could recover! However, although Qi Zhuohao didn't show any signs of pain, but she knew that Qi Zhuohao's body would definitely be in unbearable pain.
Qi Zhuohao grinned and gently stroked Nangong Yudia's hair. He said, "Yudia, you don't have to worry about me. This is just a small injury. Yudia, don't worry. I will definitely beat Luo Hao in the third theory examination. You are mine! "
Nangong Yudia felt so happy when she heard him. She really wanted to lean on Qi Zhuohao's chest and hug him, but Qi Zhuohao was seriously injured. She had to hold back the emotions in her heart and not let them explode out.
"Alright, Yudia, let's go to the Purple Crystal Pavilion! Wen Wen! Before the exam ends, the two of us can't leave the Great Desolate Mansion. Coincidentally, I haven't gone to greet Auntie (Mrs. Rong) and Grandma for a long time!"
Qi Zhuohao continued to say. Nangong Yudia smiled and nodded. She said, "Alright, let's go back to the Purple Crystal Pavilion now!"
As she spoke, Nangong Yudia supported Qi Zhuohao and slowly left the martial arts field. The two of them walked towards Nangong Yuan. Nangong Yudia had regained her freedom. Other than not being able to leave the Great Desolate Mansion, she could go anywhere else.
When Qi Zhuohao and Grandma Meng arrived at the Purple Crystal Pavilion, Mrs. Rong and Grandma Meng were very worried about Qi Zhuohao's injuries. They had already accepted Qi Zhuohao and Nangong Bojie wanted to marry Nangong Yudia to Luo Hao. They didn't have the ability to help Qi Zhuohao, so they felt deeply ashamed about it. It could not be helped. Mrs. Rong and Grandma Meng could not decide Nangong Yudia's marriage.
Nangong family was an ancient family. The family still maintained the feudal thinking of men and women. For example, before Nangong Yudia got married, she would enjoy noble treatment. She had a lot of power, but after Nangong Yudia got married, her status in the Nangong family would fall drastically.
This was also the reason why Mrs. Rong and Grandma Meng had the right to discuss Nangong Yudia's marriage but were unable to make the decision. In the Nangong family, the two of them had a respectable position on the surface. In fact, that was just an undeserved reputation, unless they could advance to the Vital Spirit!
In the tiny Great Desolate Mansion, the status of the True Essence Expert was extremely respected, whether it was in the sect or in the family!
"Auntie, grandma, you don't have to worry. I'm fine. Later, I will take care of myself and consume some more Medicinal Pill. I will be fine!" Qi Zhuohao was still respectful to Mrs. Rong and Grandma Meng. Mrs. Rong and Grandma Meng were much easier to get along with than Nangong Bojie. They would not make things difficult for Qi Zhuohao. They were also Nangong Yudia's family. Qi Zhuohao must respect them.
Hearing this, Mrs. Rong's expression was serious as she waved her hand and said, "That won't do. You have injured the foundation of your origin, so you have to recover as soon as possible. I happen to have a Life Dan here, take it quickly!"
As she spoke, Mrs. Rong took out a small jade box and handed it to Qi Zhuohao. Qi Zhuohao originally wanted to refuse, but Mrs. Rong did not give him a chance to speak. She continued, "Qi Zhuohao, we are family. You must not be polite with me. Otherwise, I will get angry."
In Mrs. Rong's heart, a Life and Death Pill was really nothing. As long as Qi Zhuohao could defeat Luo Hao, he would also be able to treat Nangong Yudia well in the future. This was better than anything else!
Qi Zhuohao was helpless. He could only take the jade box and open it to take a look. Qi Zhuohao was extremely shocked. This was indeed a Life and Death Pill. Life Dan was a divine pill, and it was called a holy medicine for healing injuries. When a martial artist consumed a Life Dan, they would be shocked. It could even heal human flesh and bones in a very short period of time. Healing the foundation of a martial artist was naturally not a problem.
Qi Zhuohao was very happy and touched. The so-called Divine Pill. It was a Heavenly Rank Medicinal Pill that could only be refined by a Pill God. Although this Life and Death Pill was only a low-grade Heavenly Rank Medicinal Pill, it was still a Divine Pill. Furthermore, it was only a one-patterned Medicinal Pill. Its value was immeasurable.
Qi Zhuohao could not bear to use such a precious Medicinal Pill. He had to keep it for emergencies. The value of a Life and Death Pill was too great. Qi Zhuohao could not waste it on restoring his foundation. He had to save it for his own life!
It was very difficult to recover a damaged foundation. However, many Earth Rank healing Medicinal Pill could restore a foundation. Furthermore, Qi Zhuohao had an extraordinary physique. Using a Life Dan to restore a foundation was really a waste.
"Thank you, Auntie. I will go upstairs to treat my injuries now!" After Qi Zhuohao thanked Mrs. Rong, he saw that Nangong Yudia wanted to stand up and support him. Qi Zhuohao quickly waved his hand and said, "Yudia, accompany your auntie and grandma well. I can do it myself."
"Alright then!" Nangong Yudia replied. This was not Qi Zhuohao's first time coming to the Purple Crystal Pavilion. There was still Qi Zhuohao's room in the Purple Crystal Pavilion. This was also Qi Zhuohao's home. Nangong Yudia really did not need to help Qi Zhuohao.
"Qi Zhuohao, hurry up and treat your injuries! Don't delay any longer and recover as soon as possible so that you can start preparing for the third theory examination."
Grandma Meng said. Her tone was very serious. She was very happy that Qi Zhuohao had defeated the genius Sword God Luo Hao in the martial examination. However, Qi Zhuohao still needed to win the third theory examination before he could marry Nangong Yudia. Although the Luo family of Qincang was good, Grandma Meng knew that Nangong Yudia's heart was with Qi Zhuohao. If Nangong Yudia could successfully marry Qi Zhuohao, that would be the perfect ending.
