Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor-Chapter 1027: Well Done!
Chapter 1027: Chapter 1027: Well Done!
Soon after, Qi Dongsheng, who was severely injured and unconscious, was carried back to his residence by several Martial Academy disciples for recuperation.
Qi Dongsheng had received grave internal damage this time, and coupled with the side effects from forcibly stimulating his body’s latent potential, it would be difficult for him to get out of bed within two to three months.
Even if Qi Dongsheng could recover from his injuries, it would be very hard for his combat power to return to its former peak state.
Qi Dongsheng’s defeat by Fang Bai’s single move led to the majority of the several thousand Martial Academy disciples present losing a considerable amount of Cultivation Resources, while a minority made a fortune.
Those who lost Cultivation Resources were filled with blame and curse words, saying they had been made to suffer by Qi Dongsheng.
Those who had made a killing were overjoyed and beaming, treating Fang Bai as their lucky star.
Apart from Fang Bai himself, no one at the scene could have guessed that Qi Dongsheng would be defeated in just one move, and in such a tragic manner.
Including Dean Ren Jingbo and other high-ranking members of Bitao Martial Academy, they were all stunned for a moment, then their gazes landed on Fang Bai on the Stone Platform, all showing expressions of astonishment.
"Fang Bai, well done, kid!"
Elder Ge Feng twirled his beard with his fingers, his eyes shining as he looked at Fang Bai with a smiling face, appearing quite pleased.
Elder Ge Feng had just placed a hefty bet on Fang Bai, mainly to show his support for Fang Bai and to back Situ Min, without truly expecting Fang Bai to defeat Qi Dongsheng within three moves.
Because even Elder Ge Feng thought at the time that it was nearly impossible for Fang Bai to defeat Qi Dongsheng within three moves.
Qi Dongsheng was a Core Disciple with a Cultivation Level of Heaven Level High Rank, and to defeat him within three moves, one would at least need to be a Direct Disciple whose Cultivation Level was a minor realm higher than his.
And the Martial Artist Aura revealed by Fang Bai was not much different from Qi Dongsheng’s, but it was far inferior to that of a Direct Disciple. To defeat Qi Dongsheng in three moves could only be hoped for by a miracle.
As for possibly losing the wagered Cultivation Resources, Elder Ge Feng didn’t care much, thinking that if he lost, he would just slowly accumulate them again in the future.
In short, before Fang Bai made his move, aside from those like Liu Liehu and Liu Qingqing, Fang Bai’s "diehard" supporters, no one else believed that Fang Bai could defeat Qi Dongsheng in three moves.
Thus, when Qi Dongsheng was blasted off the Stone Platform by Fang Bai’s punch, it shocked almost everyone present, and many people still hadn’t recovered from their surprise even after Qi Dongsheng was carried away from the scene.
"I knew it, this kid Fang Bai is no ordinary fellow! Hehe, someone lost a lot of Cultivation Resources this time, they must be hurting quite a bit, huh?"
Situ Min said excitedly as she got up, her gaze turning to Elder Lei Li of the Classics Hall, whose face was dark and incredibly displeased, making her feel exceptionally content.
Elder Lei Li knew that the "someone" Situ Min referred to was himself and couldn’t help but snort coldly, then his gaze swept over Fang Bai like lightning and he asked sternly, "Fang Bai, the technique you just used, was it a Desolate Level Martial Arts Technique?"
Before Fang Bai could answer, Situ Min had already interrupted, "Elder Lei, why do you ask? Surely you don’t suspect that someone among our Martial Academy’s senior ranks secretly taught Fang Bai a Desolate Level Martial Arts Technique?"
"I wouldn’t dare claim that!"
Lei Li glanced at Ge Feng meaningfully, his tone both mocking and strange, "If no one had taught him secretly, how could Fang Bai understand Desolate Level Martial Arts?"
Ge Feng replied with a smile, "Among the upper ranks of the Martial Academy, only I practice Fire-based Techniques, and I also think highly of Fang Bai. If someone were to secretly teach Fang Bai Fire System Techniques, I would likely be the only suspect. So, Elder Lei, are you suspecting me?"
Lei Li chuckled, neither confirming nor denying the accusation, effectively admitting it.
Situ Min retorted angrily, "I trust Elder Ge. Without Dean Ren’s consent, he would not take it upon himself to impart our Academy’s Desolate Level Martial Arts Techniques to Fang Bai! Furthermore, Elder Lei, please use your brain for once. The technique Fang Bai just used, is it one of our Bitao Martial Academy’s Fire System Techniques?"
Lei Li, taken aback, frowned and thought for a moment. Indeed, among Bitao Martial Academy’s Desolate Level Martial Arts, there was no Fire System Technique like the one Fang Bai had used.
Situ Min, with a cold gaze, looked at Lei Li and, seeing his embarrassed expression, couldn’t help but mock, "Elder Lei, what do you have to say for yourself now? Next time, before you falsely accuse someone, could you trouble yourself to think first?"
"You..."
"Enough! Enough! Hold your tongues, I have some questions for Fang Bai..."
Ren Jingbo knew that the Martial Academy’s Elders had divided into two clearly opposing factions, often bickering over various reasons. If he didn’t intervene, they could continue their quarrel for quite some time, and things could escalate into an uncontrollable situation, so he had no choice but to raise his hand to interrupt them.
"Fang Bai, let me ask you, where did you learn the Martial Arts you just displayed?"
After waiting for the several thousand Disciples on the Stone Platform to quiet down a bit, Ren Jingbo gestured to Fang Bai to come forward, asking with a pleasant expression.
Situ Min also said with a smile, "Fang Bai, don’t worry. As you should know, according to the rules of the Martial Academy, if you learn any powerful Martial Arts Techniques during your mountain training, all you need to do is copy them and submit them to the ’Classics Hall.’ The Academy will not only spare you any trouble but will also award you additional Cultivation Resources."
Fang Bai thought for a moment before speaking, "This Fire System Fist Technique is called Furious Flame Fist, a truly Desolate Level Martial Arts. I learned it in the core area of a mountain range, within a Stone Forest during my training expedition..."
Fang Bai recounted the ordeal his Cultivation Team encountered, how they were attacked by Antlered Silver Lions, took refuge in the Stone Forest, and inadvertently came across the carved Desolate Level Martial Arts Techniques on the stone pillars of the Stone Forest.
Seeing that the upper echelons of the Martial Academy were listening intently, Fang Bai paused, then added, "The five of us stumbled into the center of the Stone Forest, and then somehow found our way out again... Well, I think that Stone Forest was like a huge maze, making it impossible to discern directions once inside. To be honest, if you asked me to find that Stone Forest now, it would be very difficult for me to locate it."
The core area of the Stone Forest was where the fallen Desolate Level powerhouse was buried, and Fang Bai had reset a large formation there; even Desolate Level experts like Ren Jingbo would not be able to enter.
After hearing what Fang Bai had to say, the dozen or so Martial Academy higher-ups looked as if they had found a treasure. Their eyes lit up with excitement.
If what Fang Bai said was true, then the Desolate Level Martial Arts Techniques carved on the pillars of that Stone Forest would indeed be exhilarating.
At present, despite Bitao Martial Academy being established for nearly ten thousand years, its collection of Desolate Level Martial Arts Techniques was exceedingly rare, particularly after the Classics Hall experienced a theft years ago. The disappearance of several Desolate Level Martial Arts Techniques passed down from ancestors was truly heartbreaking.
After taking over as Dean, Ren Jingbo had sent Disciples to investigate multiple times. He had also frequently sought clues outside the Academy, hoping to recover the stolen Desolate Level Martial Arts Techniques to compensate for the shortage in the higher-ups’ Cultivation. Unfortunately, there had been no progress over the years, leaving Dean Ren feeling disheartened.
