Chapter 167: Xuanyuan Jing Was Afraid?

There were black lines on the light blue Monster Core. If one took a closer look, one could tell that it was a tiger shark.
This was actually the Monster Core of a grade 6 tiger shark demon beast. It was the coming of age gift from Xuanyuan Jing’s parents when he was 18 years old.
Xuanyuan Jing held the Monster Core with a pensive expression.
A powerful Monster Core could help a Beast Tamer raise their cultivation level. He was already at the late-stage of the Scholar realm. He wondered if he could raise his cultivation level to the peak of the late-stage after consuming this Monster Core.
Xuanyuan Jing wanted to swallow this Monster Core immediately and raise his cultivation rapidly. However, he also understood that cultivation had to move forward step by step. Using Monster Cores to raise one’s cultivation was ultimately unorthodox.
But.
‘When Yuan Jing thought about Yu Feng’s breathtaking display on the combat arena, the last trace of hesitation in his eyes was forcefully extinguished.
He could not lose!
He could not kneel down in front of a woman!
He had done nothing wrong!
Xuanyuan Jing suddenly raised his head and opened his mouth to swallow the Monster Core.
The Monster Core entered his stomach, and boundless water-attribute energy rampaged within his body. His meridians began to throb madly, and his bones felt as cold as if they had fallen into an icehouse.
He could not help but tremble from the coldness.
Xuanyuan Jing quickly sat down cross-legged and circulated all the spirit energy in his body to resist the cold. After his body got used to the cold, he used his spirit energy to wrap around the Monster Core and slowly absorbed the demonic power in it
Time slowly passed. Xuanyuan Jing was immersed in his cultivation and didn’t know that the sky was already bright.
On the central plaza, the arena matches were in full swing. Everyone was watching the exciting battles on each arena, but no one realized that Xuanyuan Jing had disappeared.
The fourth day was the cross-grade challenge. To make it easier for the students to gather and watch, the academy rearranged the arena.
The original 36 arenas were removed and merged into a circular arena with a diameter of over 3,000 meters. 7,000 students sat around the arena, and they could watch the situation of the challenger league from all directions.
The grade’s challenge match was much more exciting than the previous three days’ challenge match. There were continuous shouts and the atmosphere was very lively. When it was close to noon, people from the third grade’s combat department realized that Xuanyuan Jing had disappeared.
“Where did Xuanyuan Jing of Class A go? Didn’t he have a match with Yu Feng today? Why didn’t I see him?”
Hearing this, everyone looked towards the position of Class A of the Combat Department of the third grade. Indeed, there was no sign of Xuanyuan Jing.
“Huh? Where did Xuanyuan go?” someone from Class A asked.
A girl beside Xuanyuan Jing said, “Xuanyuan hasn’t been here since yesterday.”
Hearing this, everyone’s imagination ran wild. Someone couldn’t help but say maliciously, “Could it be that he’s afraid of battle?”
The letter of challenge from Yu Feng to Xuanyuan Jing was still hanging on the wall of the Disciplinary Hall. Everyone had been anticipating this battle for more than a year.
It was no exaggeration to say that this battle between the two of them had already become the battle that the teachers and students of the entire school wanted to see the most. It was even more exciting than the Pro League Challenge.
Today was the cross-grade challenge, so logically speaking, Yu Feng and Xuanyuan Jing would also fight today.
However, when they saw that it was almost lunchtime, Xuanyuan Jing still didn’t appear. This made everyone suspicious and they couldn’t help but make guesses.
Upon hearing this, a fair-skinned girl from Class A subconsciously retorted loudly, “How is that possible? Xuanyuan is one of the top masters in our third grade. How could he be afraid of a freshman?”
Xuanyuan Jing was handsome and elegant, and he had a huge family background to add to his prestige. He actually had many fangirls in the academy.
This woman was called Lin Qingging and was one of Xuanyuan Jing’s admirers.
“Why is it impossible?” A man who looked a little simple and honest glanced at Lin Qingging and analyzed logically. “Everyone saw the battle between Yu Huang and Liu Liufeng the afternoon before. Is that the strength a first-year should have? In my opinion, Yu Huang’s strength is considered strong
even in our third grade. Xuanyuan Jing saw that Yu Huang was so strong, so it’s not impossible for him to back down.”
Seeing her beloved man being slandered, Lin Qingging was naturally angry. She rebuked the man angrily. “Don’t talk nonsense! Xuanyuan has always been magnanimous and aboveboard. Winning and losing in the arena is common. Why does he need to avoid the battle? You’re just jealous of him because
you see that Xuanyuan has a good family background and is handsome!”
After being scolded by the woman, the honest-looking man turned angry.
‘The man sneered and said with a smirk, “Winning and losing in the arena is indeed common, but losing to an ex-fiancée that he despised and broke off the engagement with, wouldn’t he, Xuanyuan Jing, suffer extreme humiliation?”
“Lin Qingging, have you forgotten that if Xuanyuan Jing is defeated, he will have to kowtow and apologize to Yu Feng?”
Upon hearing that, Lin Qingqing felt a little unsure.
That’s right, if Xuanyuan Jing lost, he would have to apologize to Yu Feng in front of everyone and admit that he wasn’t worthy of Yu Feng, The price of losing was too great. Could it be that Xuanyuan was really afraid to fight?
At this moment, another short man said, “In my opinion, Xuanyuan Jing deserves i
Everyone looked at each of the men. This man was a student from Class B of the third grade. His name was Zheng Kai, and he had some personal grudges with Xuanyuan Jing.
When Zheng Kai was young, he was also a fan of Yu Huang and regarded her as his goddess. However, his idol was engaged to Xuanyuan Jing.
Yu Feng’s engagement broke the hearts of male fans like Zheng Kai and the rest. However, Xuanyuan Jing was born with a handsome face and an extraordinary family background. Even his talent and abilities were stronger than his. Zheng Kai also acknowledged Xuanyuan Jing from the bottom of his
heart.
It wasn’t easy for him to accept the fact that Xuanyuan Jing was Yu Feng’s fiance, but Xuanyuan Jing was a heartless jerk. He actually ran to the hospital and forcefully broke off the engagement with Yu Feng before Yu Feng’s face was disfigured.
Xuanyuan Jing’s actions angered Yu Feng’s male and female fans.
He got their idol, but not only did he not cherish her, but he even broke her heart!
He was a jerk!
Today, he finally caught Xuanyuan Jing’s mistake, so Zheng Kai naturally had to take the chance to humiliate Xuanyuan Jing before he could be satisfied.
Zheng Kai said with a cold smile, “Before Yu Huang was disfigured, she was extremely popular in Divine Moon Empire. Her fans were all over the country, and who didn’t praise her looks? How much did Xuanyuan Jing like her back then? He doted on her like a precious treasure. However, the moment Yu
Huang was disfigured, before she was discharged from the hospital, Xuanyuan Jing ran to the hospital to end the engagement.”
“It’s understanding for a man to value beauty. But even if he wants to end the engagement, he shouldn’t be in a hurry. Can’t he wait for Yu Feng to be discharged and find a quiet place to talk to her privately?”
“I think he deserves to be defeated!”
The worse the defeat, the better!
Ajerk should be beaten up!
‘When they heard Zheng Kai’s words, the others nodded their heads and said, “Kuanyuan Jing’s actions are indeed lacking in grace. It’s no wonder Yu Huang can’t take this lying down. This matter is hard for anyone to bear.”
‘When Lin Qingqing heard them slandering Xuanyuan Jing like this, she was both angry and frustrated, but she couldn’t win against them. They were speaking the truth.
Lin Qingging gritted her teeth while hoping that Xuanyuan Jing wasn’t really afraid of battle.
In the Cultivation Hall.
After a day and two nights, Xuanyuan Jing finally absorbed all the energy from the Monster Core. The level 6 Monster Core contained a huge amount of energy, which really allowed him to reach the peak of the late-stage of the Scholar realm.
After opening his eyes, Xuanyuan Jing exhaled slowly.
He stood up and stretched before sitting down again.
Xuanyuan Jing closed his eyes and used his consciousness to probe the beast heart in his body. He saw that the beast heart had grown bigger, and his spirit energy had also become much more mellow. A faint smile of satisfaction finally appeared on his lips.
His cultivation level was at the peak of the late-stage of the Scholar Realm, and he was only one step away from the cultivation level of a Master. Now that his cultivation level had increased, it would probably be difficult for him to find an opponent in the entire third grade.
No matter how strong Yu Huang was, she would not be able to defeat a Beast Tamer who was close to the level of a Master!
With that thought, Xuanyuan Jing finally felt more at ease.
When he left the Cultivation Hall, even his steps became full of vigor. He no longer had the anxiety and lack of confidence from the afternoon before.
‘When it was close to noon, Xuanyuan Jing suddenly found an empty seat in the central plaza beside Lin Qingging.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Jing had actually come, Zheng Kai and the honest-looking man had subtle expressions on their faces. On the other hand, Lin Qingging, who was determined to protect Xuanyuan Jing’s reputation, became even more aggrieved when she saw Xuanyuan Jing appear.
‘The moment Xuanyuan Jing sat down, he saw the female classmate beside him looking at him with a pair of soft and gentle eyes. He was stunned for a moment before asking in a deep voice, “Qingging, what’s wrong?”
After thinking about it, Xuanyuan Jing asked again, “Could it be that you lost the group arena competition?”
Lin Qingging shook her head and said aggrievedly, “You didn’t come yesterday and this morning, Someone spread rumors that you were afraid of battle and didn’t dare to fight with Yu Feng because you were afraid that you would lose to her! I didn’t believe that you were that kind of person, so I argued
with them.”
Lin Qingging couldn’t help but shed tears. She sobbed and said, “Xuanyuan, I knew you weren’t a coward.”
Hearing that, Xuanyuan Jing’s handsome face became sullen.
Who was so nosy?
Although he had indeed been afraid of Yu Feng at the beginning, after he swallowed a Rank 6 Monster Core, his cultivation had improved greatly, so dealing with Yu Feng was naturally not a problem.
Xuanyuan Jing took out a handkerchief and passed it to Lin Qingqing. “Wipe your tears, and…” He smiled at Lin Qingging and said,” Thank you for protecting me.”
Staring at Xuanyuan Jing’s smiling face, Lin Qingqing didn’t feel wronged anymore.
She took the handkerchief and wiped her tears while blushing.
Only then did Xuanyuan Jing look towards those men who didn’t like him.
Zheng Kai noticed Xuanyuan Jing’s gaze but he didn’t back down. He puffed out his chest at Xuanyuan Jing to see what he could do.
Xuanyuan Jing naturally wouldn’t fight with Zheng Kai. He smiled and said, “Let others say what they want. When I defeat Yu Huang, they will naturally have nothing to say.”
Zheng Kai immediately turned around and spat, “Victory my ass! Do you really think you’re invincible?!”
Lin Qingqing secretly sized up Xuanyuan Jing and felt that the composed Xuanyuan Jing was even more charming than usual..
