Urban Cultivation with a Demonic System-Chapter 145 - 144: Li Zhengxing’s Reputation Unjustly Ruined!
"Zhengxing, is there a problem with the Secret Technique’s operation? Do you need to take a break?"
Beside him, Cloud Spirit noticed Li Zhengxing’s pale complexion, a hint of worry flashing in her beautiful eyes.
In fact, half of Li Zhengxing’s pallor was from pain, the other half from anger.
Judging by Su Yuan’s demeanor, it seemed he had long expected Li Zhengxing’s body to be in agony at this moment.
Clearly, this was all Su Yuan’s doing!
Although he had long recognized Su Yuan as a true demon, he never imagined that beyond Abyssal Spiritual Power and Hypnotic Sword Qi, Su Yuan had more dirty tricks up his sleeve!
"Do you have unlimited slots in your skills bar?"
However, after being ambushed this time, Li Zhengxing quickly realized that Su Yuan had used similar tactics on others before.
Those who could have escaped but suddenly stopped, like Liang Yunyun and Wang Baiji, were probably ambushed by Su Yuan from a distance.
It’s just that they logged off too quickly, so it didn’t show.
And as the only one who endured this trick without logging out, he was evaluated by the judges as lacking in determination.
Damn it, it’s not about lacking determination; it’s obviously about bearing the pain that Su Yuan should have taken!
You enjoy the reputation! I take the blame?!
The injustice and grievance here were only understood by Su Yuan, the perpetrator.
As the saying goes, those who wrong you understand more than anyone just how wronged you are.
He wanted to explain, but anything he’d say now would sound like an excuse. To clear his name, he could only defeat Su Yuan first.
Having thought of this, Li Zhengxing gritted his teeth and shook his head, saying,
"It’s nothing, just some minor errors. Let’s continue."
It’s just some phantom pain, just ignore it.
He took a deep breath, fully operating the Star Curtain, once again brewing a star to hurl at Su Yuan.
But just as the star was about to launch, Li Zhengxing suddenly felt the phantom pain in his body increase a hundredfold.
Pain of childbirth amplified a hundredfold? This is not something that can be endured just with willpower.
"Damn..."
His hand trembled, the star was launched, but its aim was shockingly off!
"Wow, look at that, why does Li Zhengxing seem to get more enthusiastic as he talks?"
"Can’t even aim his shot right, this isn’t about having enough determination, something’s wrong with his body, right?"
"I heard many kids with kidney deficiency are like this, unable to focus and often weak in the limbs."
The judge shook his head again.
After these words broadcast live to the whole network, Li Zhengxing’s popularity growth suddenly slowed down.
It even started to decline!
Li Qingyun’s face fell into deep lines, although he, like most of the Li Family, disapproved of Li Zhengxing’s unclear relationship with a civilian girl.
But he wouldn’t go so far as to think his nephew was suffering from kidney deficiency.
He wanted to say a few fair words for his nephew, but Li Zhengxing’s next performance made him fall silent completely.
Every time Su Yuan launched a Sword Qi, Li Zhengxing’s control over the Star Curtain would sharply decrease, causing the untransferred Sword Qi to hit his classmates directly.
And each time Li Zhengxing launched a star, it rarely hit the target. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
Even if it did barely hit, it only eliminated one or two Taixia High School candidates standing at the edge of the lineup.
If anyone ignorant of the situation watched, it would look like a bunch of weaklings pecking at each other.
But anyone with eyes would realize, the only weakling was Li Zhengxing.
The operation of Su Yuan was flawless.
By now, Su Yuan was bleeding from every pore, his injuries getting worse every second, yet he didn’t even blink.
In contrast, Li Zhengxing, though unharmed, was sweating like rain, his body and limbs trembling and twitching slightly.
With this stark contrast, Su Yuan’s popularity began to soar.
After all, everyone, regardless of gender, admired a tough guy who could face adversity without flinching.
Meanwhile, Li Zhengxing’s evaluation plummeted.
Viewers in the live broadcast even pulled out his monthly exam results, from his total score of seven hundred forty-eight points, they pointed out the only non-perfect score, his Dao Heart test score.
With a Dao Heart score of seventy-three, for most people, that’s a high score, but for Taihua’s top high school student, it was an indisputable lack of balance!
For a while, rumors of an unstable Dao Heart, kidney deficiency, harmed by drinking and womanizing, were rampant in the live room.
How could Li Qingyun explain this?
No matter how he explained it, it sounded like he was covering up!
However, being the culprit, Su Yuan was fully aware of Li Zhengxing’s resilience.
"Three hundred times body sensitivity, and he’s still not down?"
Looking at Li Zhengxing, who was still gritting his teeth and holding on, Su Yuan could only express his admiration.
Currently, he didn’t dare to deactivate the Demon Technique · Finger Body, because once the three hundredfold pain returned, he’d likely pass out from the pain on the spot.
Li Zhengxing was the real man here, making his reputation suffer so much was truly regrettable.
As for raising the sensitivity to a thousandfold to end the contest?
That would indeed instantly take Li Zhengxing out, but the problem was, although he transferred all negative sensations, his body would remain sensitive.
With a thousand times sensitivity, he feared he’d be eliminated alongside Li Zhengxing.
Even now, Su Yuan was nearing his limits.
Although his Spiritual Power reserves were still there, his Dantian and meridians couldn’t withstand much more abuse; continuing might cause damage of ten thousand medical bill level to both.
"Seems like I have to use my trump card."
Su Yuan turned his head to look at Xiao Meng, who was on standby, giving the final command.
Xiao Meng nodded slightly, her figure suddenly shooting out like a bolt of lightning, transforming into a brilliant purple meteor, heading straight for the Yaoxing candidates’ formation.
And as she charged, having become completely elemental, the flames inside her body started pulsing like a heart.
With every pulse, the coloration of the purple fire deepened, its power ramped up, and its nature became increasingly unstable.
Much like a... bomb!
Seeing this scene, some knowledgeable Yaoxing candidates turned pale.
"Not good! Xiao Meng is about to explode!"
The most powerful move in the Xiao Family’s Yin Fire Dharma Body was precisely self-detonation, and only a fully formed Yin Fire Dharma Body could execute it.
Every cultivator could detonate their spiritual power, but doing so would be a sure death.
But Xiao Meng, the Xiao family heir, was different.
Using the complete elementalization of the Yin Fire Dharma Body, even if she voluntarily detonated, it would only exhaust all her physical strength and spiritual power.
After the explosion, she would only need to undo the Yin Fire Dharma Body and rest for a few days to fully recover.
Due to the unique nature of Yin Fire Spiritual Power, her self-detonation was much more powerful than standard cultivator’s self-detonations, capable of shredding over a dozen cultivators of the same level instantly!
Under normal circumstances, Li Zhengxing could borrow the strength of all his classmates to use Star Shifting to transfer this explosion, but it was evident that he was currently struggling.
Moreover, Su Yuan increased his body’s sensitivity again to support Xiao Meng.
Cloud Spirit and several Yaoxing candidates tried to stop Xiao Meng, but it was too late.
The latter leaped high, and under the astonished eyes of all judges and spectators, her body suddenly swelled up, turning into a gigantic fireball emitting endless light and heat.
It was as if a purple sun was rising in the examination field.
The gigantic expansion radius of this fireball, in just an instant, engulfed all the Yaoxing candidates!
