For a long time, Huang Miao had occupied the second place on the Inner Courtyard Disciples' Combat Strength List. Now, Fang Bai's sudden rise caught her off guard.
Although Huang Miao had a good impression of Fang Bai and was happy to see Fang Bai's rise, she still felt a little regretful that her position on the Inner Courtyard Disciples' Combat Strength List had been replaced.
However, although it was regretful, Huang Miao did not feel any jealousy in her heart.
After all, with Fang Bai's aptitude, sooner or later, he would soar into the sky. This small Inner Courtyard could not trap a hidden dragon like him.
At this moment, under a thick weeping willow tree not far away by the lake, a man in his thirties stood quietly. His gaze passed through the crowd and fell on Fang Bai.
The man had a robust figure, thick brows, and tiger-like eyes. His eyes emitted an oppressive bright light when they opened and closed, and his entire body emanated a ferocious and terrifying imposing aura. He was like a ferocious tiger that lay there silently, and he was fine when he didn't move, but once he did, it would be shocking.
The man was wearing an Inner Courtyard Disciple's uniform. Obviously, he was also an Inner Courtyard Disciple. However, compared to the other Inner Courtyard Disciples, his hair was messy, his beard was unshaven, and his clothes were very shabby. At first glance, it was obvious that he did not like to care about his appearance.
The man looked at Fang Bai with a bit of surprise and admiration, but more than that, a strong fighting spirit.
The man held a long saber in his arms. Although the saber was in a black animal skin scabbard, it still released a dense murderous aura.
Only a saber that had drunk its fill of blood would have this kind of murderous aura.
Only those who had experienced life and death could control this saber.
The man had actually been standing there for a long time. He had seen the battle between Hou Ziping and Yang Wei, as well as the battle between Fang Bai and Yang Lin.
When he saw Hou Ziping and Fang Bai defeat Yang Wei and Yang Lin respectively, the man could not help but secretly praise them in his heart.
"Although Junior Brother Hou Ziping's strength has improved, he is still not my opponent. On the other hand, Fang Bai's Brother Fang, who entered the Inner Sect not long ago, seemed to be holding back when fighting Junior Brother Yang just now. He is a very strong opponent."
The man's eyes lit up as he muttered to himself. Then, he lowered his head and looked at the long saber in his hand. At the same time, he reached out and gently stroked the scabbard. It was as if he was not holding a saber filled with killing intent, but a doting lover.
"This Brother Fang's next target is either Junior Sister Huang or me.
Then, I will wait for his challenge! "
The man raised his head and looked deeply at Fang Bai, then turned around and strode away.
Just as the man was about to leave, Huang Miao suddenly felt something and looked at his back. Then, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth and she thought to herself, "I knew that the battle between Fang Bai and Yang Lin would definitely alarm Senior Brother Tu.
Senior Brother Tu has always liked to fight. When he saw a strong person like Fang Bai, he probably couldn't wait to fight him! "
Huang Miao did not notice that the moment Senior Brother Tu turned around and left, Fang Bai's gaze also seemed to inadvertently glance at Senior Brother Tu. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Regardless of whether it was the battle between Hou Ziping and Yang Wei or the battle between Fang Bai and Yang Lin, the outcome had been decided in just a few moves. This caused all the inner courtyard disciples present to feel that it was not enough. At the same time, they gained a new understanding of these two inner courtyard disciples, Hou Ziping and Fang Bai.
When Fang Bai returned to Hou Ziping's side, many inner courtyard disciples took the initiative to gather around them. They greeted the two of them warmly, and there was clearly a trace of flattery on their faces.
It was Fang Bai. He had easily defeated Yang Lin who was ranked third on the Rankings of Combat Prowess. In the eyes of many inner courtyard disciples present, he already possessed the strength to take the first position on the Rankings of Combat Prowess. If they did not flatter him now, then when?
Huang Miao smiled as she walked over to Fang Bai and said to Fang Bai, "Brother Fang, I'm willing to admit defeat.
I'll send the ten thousand source stones and a hundred bottles of pills to your residence very soon.
Also … "
Huang Miao sighed softly at this point. She looked deeply at Fang Bai and said in a low voice, "Brother Fang, I admit that I'm no match for you. You don't have to challenge me in the future.
Your target should be Senior Brother Tu Hu! "
Fang Bai knew almost all of the hundreds of disciples in the Inner Yard, especially the top ten experts on the Inner Yard Disciple Combat Ranking. He knew them very well.
The Tu Hu that Huang Miao mentioned was the expert who ranked first on the Rankings of Combat Prowess.
It was said that Tu Hu was originally an abandoned child. He was picked up by a deacon of Bitao Martial Art School. No one expected that as he grew older, he began to make a name for himself in martial arts and displayed great talent.
Tiger Slayer originally didn't have a name. Because he had a tiger's head and a tiger's head when he was young, everyone called him Little Tiger. Later on, during an adventure, he encountered a group of horned tigers. With his strength alone, he slaughtered the horned tigers, so he changed his name to Tiger Slayer.
After entering the Inner Courtyard, Tu Hu's progress was even faster, and he quickly fought his way into the Combat Strength Ranking of the Inner Courtyard Disciples through almost insane challenges. Moreover, his ranking on the ranking was getting higher and higher, and he finally won first place five years ago. Until today, no Inner Courtyard Disciple could shake his position.
But now, Fang Bai's sudden appearance clearly posed a challenge to Tu Hu's position.
Fang Bai smiled and shook his head, "To be honest, I'm not interested in the Rankings of Combat Prowess. I won't take the initiative to challenge anyone.
If it wasn't for Yang Lin challenging me, I wouldn't even bother to fight him. "
In fact, it wasn't that Fang Bai didn't want to challenge anyone. It was just that with his strength, challenging an inner courtyard disciple with a Heaven Rank cultivation wouldn't benefit his cultivation at all. It was no different from a waste of time. Rather than that, he might as well use his time on other things.
Huang Miao didn't expect that Fang Bai would say such a thing. She couldn't help but be startled. She then smiled bitterly, "The other inner courtyard disciples are constantly challenging others to obtain a higher ranking on the Rankings of Combat Prowess.
You, on the other hand, don't take the Rankings of Combat Prowess seriously.
Your state of mind is like that of a supreme expert that disdains the inner court disciples. "
Fang Bai said, "I don't have any other thoughts. I just don't like to compete with others!"
Huang Miao smiled mysteriously, "You don't like to compete with others, but there are many who do.
You've made a name for yourself in the inner courtyard after today's battle. Soon, there will be inner courtyard disciples challenging you.
Furthermore, Senior Brother Tu is a battle maniac. Even if you don't want to challenge him, he will definitely challenge you.
If you don't believe me, just wait and see! "
Fang Bai knew that what Huang Miao said was the truth. He shook his head helplessly and secretly decided that if any inner courtyard disciple wanted to challenge him in the future, he would use Hou Ziping as a shield. Only by defeating Hou Ziping would they be qualified to fight him.
