low-key is king

Chapter 856 Don't You Dare?

"Hmph, Lu Xun was only able to hurt Ji Shang by surprise. I don't believe in his fighting power. He can really compete against the perfection of the Seven Realms!"

A somewhat inappropriate cold snort came, and when everyone turned their eyes, they suddenly found that it was Kou Li, the president of the Poisonous Dragon Society.

Everyone in the New Moon Palace glared at Kou Li, and now they all know a lot of things, in fact, it was this guy who was behind the scenes, almost causing Lu Xun and the New Moon Palace to capsize in the gutter.

But for some reason, Kou Li, who always likes to hide behind and plot against others, is quite straightforward at this time, probably because of Lu Xun's methods, which made him lose his composure.

The failure of several plans in succession hit Kou's confidence. He was always the only one who plotted against others, but Lu Xun plotted against him several times.

Especially the matter of the Juque Excalibur, Kou Li knew that his impression in the hearts of the saintess of Luoyou Mountain had already been greatly discounted because of this matter, which was an important matter related to his future.

All of this was attributed to Lu Xun by Kou Li. Now that he hated that boy in black, he naturally didn't want to see everyone respecting him so much.

"Kou Li, do you want to practice?"

Kong Xinyue, who had just arrived here, raised her brows, and at the same time as the provocative words fell, a majestic aura emerged from her body, which made the hearts of all the geniuses tremble, and gave birth to endless fear.

The head of the new moon palace soldier hall is a peerless genius who ranks second in the hundred battle list, and is also the number one soldier of the younger generation in the academy. Except for Liu Sanqing, no one can say that he can win for sure.

Even Wei Xiuyuan, who used to be ranked third, was a little helpless. For this woman, the top ten geniuses in the hundred battle list cannot be easily ignored.

"Senior Sister Kong is really embarrassing for the second in the hundred battle list to challenge the ninth in the hundred battle list!"

Kou Li disliked everyone in the New Moon Palace, and at this moment he directly retorted, implying that Kong Xinyue was shameless.

This is indeed the case. Generally speaking, geniuses who rank high on the hundred battle list will not take the initiative to challenge geniuses who rank lower.

Firstly, it is an unwritten rule of the academy that geniuses with lower rankings can refuse; secondly, if they lose the challenge, wouldn’t they have to hand over their rankings to others?
This is a meaningless and thankless thing that almost no one wants to do.

Kong Xinyue was also angry, so she ignored the problem, and Kou Li turned pale.

"Kou Li, watch your attitude!"

Not far away, Liu Sanqing frowned. He had always regarded Kong Xinyue as his most suitable Taoist partner. Kou Li was getting more and more courageous. How dare he speak to his Xinyue like this?

"Hey, Senior Brother Liu, you still have fantasies about her. I'm afraid our Senior Sister Kong's heart is all in that kid Lu Xun, right?"

For some reason, Kou Li, who was originally extremely jealous of Liu Sanqing, who never took the initiative to provoke him, actually showed a smile at this moment.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two geniuses of the academy all sank.

"Kou Li, you are courting death!"

Liu Sanqing's anger was really serious, even though he could feel that Kong Xinyue's attitude towards Lu Xun was unusual, but he never wanted to think about the real relationship between the two, he felt that he still had hope.

But now Kou Lichi said it nakedly in public, so that Liu Sanqing could no longer evade this question, and this was the real reason why he became angry from embarrassment.

If Kong Xinyue didn't mean that to Lu Xun, maybe Liu Sanqing wouldn't be so angry, but he knew that was not the case.

Lu Xun's brilliance seems to have overwhelmed him as the first genius recognized by the academy.

The current Liu Sanqing is quite afraid of Lu Xun, and he doesn't want to provoke him anymore, or he is jealous of Kong Xinyue.

But who are you, Kou Li, who are also qualified to criticize this genius?

"Looking for death? Liu Sanqing, do you think I will accept the challenge now?"

Kou Li looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water. This was repeating the rules of the challenge just now, and it also made Liu Sanqing feel helpless while being angry.

Who made him the number one genius on the hundred battle list? That is to say, in this official challenge, as long as it is his challenge, anyone can refuse it, and Kou Li is no exception.

In this way, Liu Sanqing and Kong Xinyue really had nothing to do with Kou Li.

The geniuses on the sidelines looked at it with a glance, and they were even more emotional. After all, the rankings of the geniuses in the New Moon Palace were almost all above Kou Li.

Before today, Kou Li ranked ninth in the hundred battle list, that is to say, if Chen Wu and Meng Wuxin challenged him, he could also use the same reason to refuse.

"Huh? It seems not necessarily!"

When everyone was looking at the people in the New Moon Palace, a figure suddenly took a step forward, making everyone startled for a moment, and then the expression on their faces became extremely exciting.

"Brother Kou Li, please advise!"

The young man who stood out from the crescent palace formation was not too unfamiliar to everyone.

After the words in his mouth came out, everyone recognized that this person was Xuan Shisan, who ranked No.11 in the hundred battle list.

As we all know, Xuan Shisan has broken through to the Seventh Realm for quite some time, but his ranking has not been squeezed into the top ten. This may be because his scribe profession is chess.

The way of chess is very helpful for the improvement of comprehension, but it is quite inferior to the blessing of combat power.

Those young chess masters in the Chess Academy have always been recognized by the academy as the group with the weakest combat effectiveness.

In fact, Xuan Shisan was able to rank No.11 in the Hundred Battles Ranking, which was already a credit to the Chess Academy, but compared to those monsters in the top ten, it was quite inferior.

But at this moment, everyone felt that Xuan Shisan was the most suitable candidate for the challenge, and that Kou Li could not refuse.

As for whether he can win the battle, it depends on the subsequent battle.

"Xuan Shisan, do you really want to challenge me?"

Under the gaze of everyone, Kou Li turned his head with a sullen look on his face, a trace of killing intent flashed in his eyes, and now he wants to kill everyone in the New Moon Palace.

"What? You wouldn't dare, would you?"

After Xuan Shisan's words fell, his figure had already swept directly onto the main ring in the center, attracting the eyes of many masters above.

"Brother Kou Li, do you dare to fight?"

Immediately afterwards, the loud voice from Xuan Shisan's mouth was heard clearly by all the teachers and masters.

This is a truly provocative statement, and I'm afraid it is impossible for Kou Li to refuse it anyway.

Moreover, the lower-ranked geniuses challenge the higher-ranked geniuses, and the latter cannot refuse. This is also the true meaning of the Hundred Battles Challenge.

Gao Yuansheng, the dean of the Chess Academy, had a gleam in his eyes. He naturally knew the grievances between Du Longhui and Xinyue Palace, but Xuan Shisan's words against Shang Kou Li seemed to him to be four or six at most.

Together with the poison master, they are quite powerful in combat, while Xuan Shisan's chess skills are more about his understanding of the way of heaven. If he really wants to fight, Gao Yuansheng doesn't have much confidence in Xuan Shisan.

"Thirteen, come on!"

A voice came from Mr. Master's formation. When everyone followed the sound, they found that it was actually from the Qi Academy Mr. Gui Dongnan who was always not fond of talking too much.

This is probably the only one of the upper five realms among the gentlemen, so everyone looked at Guidongnan with a strange look.

"Hey, thank you Mr. Gui, but it's still too early to say this, maybe Senior Brother Kou Li won't dare to go to the ring at all!"

Xuan Shisan cupped his hands towards that side, and after he uttered the last taunting and provocative words, a figure jumped onto the ring, it was Kou Li, the first genius of Poison Master Academy.

Being provoked again and again by Xuan Shisanyi, Kou Li may naturally become a coward again.

Although he was afraid of Liu Sanqing, Kong Xinyue and others, how could he be afraid of Xuan Shisan from a chess academy?
"On the stage, life and death are not counted!"

When Kou Li uttered these eight words, everyone could hear the murderous intent in his tone. It seems that this is different from the previous challenge, it is a life-and-death battle.

"Who lives and who dies is not up to you!"

Xuan Shisan was not to be outdone, even though he was usually calm and courteous to everyone, but when it came to a life-and-death battle, he would do his best, after all, he was also a monstrous genius of the academy.

"Stop talking nonsense, let's start!"

There was a strange aura rising from Kou Li's body. After seeing his words, a spell descended like a magic weapon from the sky, and instantly descended on Xuan Shisan's head, causing many people to break into a cold sweat.

Because Kou Li is the number one poison master of the younger generation in the academy, I'm afraid that every move he makes is full of poison.

If that magical attack touched the skin, it would probably make Xuan Shisan feel overwhelmed.

Especially everyone in the New Moon Palace, their hearts tightened.

Even if they are all supporting Xuan Shisan, Kou Li has a fierce reputation, and his powerful combat power combined with the poison master's methods will definitely exert even stronger power.

Whoosh!
Fortunately, Xuan Shisan had always been on guard against the opponent's moves, and avoided this powerful blow at the very moment, but his face was not very good-looking. It seemed that he still underestimated the poison master genius.

"The movement is not slow, but unfortunately it is useless!"

Kou Li couldn't see the slightest sense of discouragement from missing a hit, but instead sneered.

During the slight movement of his fingers, the magical attack that did not hit Zhongxuan Shisan directly exploded in an instant.

Countless energies fluctuated, causing Xuan Shisan's face to change slightly.

Because he can clearly sense that there is a special aura contained in those energy fluctuations, which must be the poison of the seventh-rank peak.

The speed of these poisonous energies was so fast that even if Xuan Shisan had retreated to the edge of the ring, it was inevitable, so he could only use another method to deal with it.
