Tribulation of Myriad Races

Chapter 238: Fight (2)

On the training center's third floor.

The old instructor went upstairs again and awkwardly took out a device before setting it up in front of Liu Hong's group. Through the device, they were able to see clearly what was going on in the room on the second floor.

Liu Hong and Zhou Pingsheng weren't surprised. A lot of training centers had the habit of spying on their customers. This was especially true for training centers that also provided the venue for people to spar. These training centers would frequently create recordings of these spars.

Some would use the recordings for themselves while some would simply use those recordings in their information peddling business. Therefore, the two had not bothered making any preparations to spy on the match themselves. When cultivators spar, the recordings could be used as learning material for other cultivators.

"Manager Zhou, Assistant Liu, shall I leave?"

The old instructor was somewhat flustered. There was still another group of important guests waiting for him next door.

"You may leave," Zhou Pingsheng replied indifferently. The old instructor was glad to hear that and hurriedly left the room.

After the old instructor left, Liu Hong looked at the two people on the screen and smiled, "Senior Brother, who do you think will win this match?"

"Zheng Yunhui." Zhou Pingsheng replied nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter if he can defeat Su Yu or not. Today, he will be the winner."

"Senior Brother." Liu Hong frowned, "Are we going to meddle in the match?"

"Don't put it that way. We simply have to get our hands on the data." Zhou Pingsheng solemnly said, "Su Yu will never sell the data. And if we forcefully take it from him, he can claim that we robbed him and get us in great trouble. We can only get it if it lands in Zheng Yunhui's hands. Junior Brother, you know what I mean. Senior Brother Zheng is of the same opinion."

He smiled and added, "Don't worry. If Zheng Yunhui can lose even as an eighth-stage Great Strength cultivator, then he would be utterly useless. He is still a member of the Zheng Family's main branch. He won't be so weak."

Liu Hong did not say anything else. If they really had to meddle, with a seventh-stage Cloudbreach expert on their side and the distance between them and the kids, those two would probably not notice anything.

...

Second floor. Within a large room.

Both Su Yu and Zheng Yunhui had arrived. The hostility between the two was thick. Both were regarding the other coldly.

Zheng Yunhui asked, "Where's the stuff?"

Su Yu tossed out a bag. The Skybreak Technique willpower text was revealed alongside a jade pendant. When Zheng Yunhui saw the jade pendant, his expression changed as he asked, "Is it in there?"

"Yes. Do you know what this is?" Su Yu said, "This is a temporary talisman used to record precious information. It comes with the ability to set passwords. You will only be able to access the data with my password. If you try to access it through brute force, the pendant will self-destruct. Zheng Yunhui, don't even think of playing tricks."

Zheng Yunhui frowned, "How am I supposed to know if the data is real?"

"I will prove it later." Su Yu's eyes turned cold as he asked, "My stuff is here. How about you?"

"Hmph!" Zheng Yunhui took out a golden bottle. The bottle wasn't large, but it was radiating a golden light.

"Look carefully..."

He opened the stopper and immediately after, a drop of blood essence darted out. Zheng Yunhui was ready for it so his willpower erupted, pressing the blood essence back into the bottle as a popping sound rang out in the air before sealing the bottle again.

"Did you see that? Divine blood essence! Even a drop of blood essence has some sort of consciousness."

Su Yu could sense a surging blood essence power.

His gaze was burning hot as he looked at the bottle and asked, "How many drops?"

"Five."

Su Yu's face fell as he said, "We agreed on eight!"

Zheng Yunhui furiously said, "Your stuff is not worth that much! I asked around. It's only worth five drops. Furthermore, the ten drops are being stored in two different bottles. I can only take one bottle with me. If I take both, they will definitely find out immediately."

"You..."

"Cut the crap. If I lose, I'll pay you 2,000 merit points on top of that."

"Do you even have that much money?"

"Hmph!" Zheng Yunhui coldly said, "No. But I can give you the two grotto free entries the academy gave me."

"Are you serious?"

"Of course." Zheng Yunhui impatiently said, "You already verified the authenticity my stuff. How about you?"

Su Yu smiled. He tossed the temporary talisman over and said, "Keep it in your hands first. If I lose, I'll give you the password. After the match, I'll show you. You only need to prepare some materials. I'll produce some blood essence right in front of you. You can easily see if I'm lying or not. If the data is fake, feel free to spread what I did here. My reputation in the academy will be ruined."

Zheng Yunhui frowned, "This is a private match. The academy won't care about it. Stop trying to trick me. If it's fake, wouldn't I have worked hard for nothing? Su Yu, don't mess around with me. Either you prove that this is real now or you can just return me the Skybreak Technique and call this off."

Su Yu frowned, "You don't trust me?"

"Of course not."

Su Yu said, "I don't trust you either. If I show you the data now and you lose, wouldn't you get the data anyway?"

He sank into a short silence before suggesting, "Why don't you get the shopkeeper to buy some materials for you. Buy as many materials as you want. Since you're willing to pay, I don't mind. Also, don't even dream of deducting the formula through the materials. If you win, I'll produce some blood essence immediately. If I fail to produce any blood essence, you can further injure me. I won't have anything to say. Do you really think that someone like me will willingly allow myself to be injured so heavily that I have to be bedridden for months or even a year?"

Su Yu solemnly said, "If you still can't believe me with all that, then there's nothing I can do. I won't show you the formula right now."

After some hesitation, Zheng Yunhui nodded. He left the room and called the old instructor over. Su Yu wasted no time and wrote a long list of materials, including blood essence, pills, natural resources, ores, and so on. In total, there were nearly 100 different materials listed.

The old instructor was quite a knowledgeable person due to his age. Thus, when he saw the list, he asked in astonishment, "You're buying all these? They are worth at least 300 merit points."

Su Yu said nothing and simply looked at Zheng Yunhui.

Zheng Yunhui cursed inwardly. Damn it! That bastard was deliberately making him waste money. What an asshole!

But Su Yu was clearly not going to pay for all that. And in order to prove that Su Yu's data was real, Zheng Yunhui had no choice but to pay for these materials. He clenched his teeth and gave the old instructor 300 merit points. With a smile, he said, "If this is not enough, I'll reimburse you when you get back."

"Sure."

The old instructor did not hesitate. These two had attracted quite a lot of people today. After the old instructor left, Zheng Yunhui looked at Su Yu again. Inwardly, he wondered if Su Yu could really produce a blood essence right in front of him. Or was he required to help him fake the performance? Whatever. He would have to act accordingly depending on the situation.

...

Third floor.

Zhou Pingsheng's eyes flickered as he looked at Liu Hong. Liu Hong nodded and said, "I'll provide all the materials. We'll make sure they're using only our materials. That way, he won't be able to play any tricks."

"Umm." Zhou Pingsheng nodded, "Don't give Su Yu a chance to try anything. Pay close attention to him after his defeat. If he really can produce the blood essence..."

Zhou Pingsheng's eyes lit up. Then they would earn big! 50,000 merit points were nothing compared to what they could gain.

"We better not let the Xia Family get the list. We don't want them to deduce the formula through the materials..."

Before he could finish his words, his expression changed. Outside, the middle-aged man from the Xia Family had stopped the old instructor.

After taking a look at the list of materials, his face twitched. Was this a joke? Were these materials capable of producing those special blood essence? Just what was he looking at?

The list included ores used for cultural weapon forging, different blood essence in the Great Strength and Infinite Strength Realms, natural resources of the Allheaven Battlefield that weren't too expensive.

Even some daily groceries could be found in the list, such as soy sauce. Just what was this list? This was a completely illogical list. He would be willing to lick the shoes of anyone capable of deducing the formula from a list like this.

After a look at the list, the middle-aged man left unhesitatingly. He would rather just wait for the result. It was pointless to try and study that list. That little bastard was too crafty.

...

Second floor. Inside a room.

Su Yu took off his robe and changed into a martial outfit. He was also holding a standard design saber in his hand.

Zheng Yunhui did not need to get changed. When he saw Su Yu doing that, he sneered, "You won't be my match even if you fight naked. I'll give you a chance. Why don't you consume your blood essence now and try to hurt me."

Su Yu ignored the provocation. He breathed lightly. After a while, he looked at Zheng Yunhui and said, "Do we start now?"

"I don't care." Zheng Yunhui smiled with disdain, "You're at the fifth-stage Great Strength Realm, right? Do you really think I'm unaware of that?”

"You sure talk a lot."

Immediately after, a chilly arc flashed through the air.

Whoosh!

The arc was formed by the swing of a saber. Su Yu did not bother hiding his cultivation level and swung his saber forward with an eruption of source qi.

"Too weak..."

Zheng Yunhui was in the middle of sneering when darkness covered his vision.

"Hah!"

Zheng Yunhui didn't have any time to think. With a roar, his willpower and Divine Character erupted. With a rumble, he shattered the illusion.

Only to be faced with a rapidly approaching tiny saber.

Zheng Yunhui's heart chilled as he saw the saber coming for his throat. He immediately leaned back and swung at the incoming saber. At the same time, his cultural weapon, a tiny sword, appeared.

From his instantaneous reaction, it was clear he was experienced in combat. He was someone who had truly fought with opponents intending to kill.

Weapons clanged against each other as Zheng Yunhui fell on his back. He followed that up with a roll on the ground.

Bang!

Su Yu's saber struck the hard floor, creating sparks and sending broken stones flying everywhere. Only then did a bloody scar appear on Zheng Yunhui's throat. The flying broken stones also left a few bloody scars on his face. His blood had been drawn!

Su Yu did not show mercy after grabbing the upper hand. His killing intent erupted as his cultural weapon shot forth.

"Battle!"

"Kill!"

Facing the incoming saber, Zheng Yunhui roared and slammed his palm into the floor, pushing himself up before swinging at the saber. At the same time, his cultural weapon shot toward Su Yu.

"Murder!"

His murderous intent grew thick as he utilized his murder character.

Su Yu sent his willpower out, but the sword instantly stabbed through his wall of willpower. The lightning character activated, striking the sword with a lightning strike.

Splurt!

The trajectory of the sword was changed, but it still cut a small wound on Su Yu's face, causing him to bleed as well.
