Matchless Pill God

2. Beating Bullies

Translator: Flying Lines

The beast egg was only palm-sized, and its whole shell was crystal clear and snow white. Its surface was covered with a layer of red monster pattern which was faintly glaring. Everyone could tell that this thing was definitely extraordinary at a glance!

All the students participating in the assessment couldn’t help but hold their breath, staring at the beast egg in Qin Sheng’s hand. Their eyes were filled with desire.

This was the beast egg of the scorpion-tailed tiger. Once obtained, it meant that the family would have a large and powerful beast, which was of great value.

The contribution to the family would be much greater than that of entering the advanced class of Floating Cloud Academy. Maybe, as long as someone could obtain this beast egg, he or she could get a great reward from the family and be recommended into the elite class.

The students who could enter the elite class of Floating Cloud Academy were rare even if taking into account the entire Dayan City. Then the path of cultivation would definitely be smooth and the fame would rise like shooting for stars!

Thinking of this, all the students participating in the assessment in the mine were itching. Their hearts trembled, and the greed in their eyes became more intense…

Han Tailong also seemed to have noticed the weird atmosphere in the mine cave, so he squeezed towards Qin Sheng and whispered, “Qin Sheng, the atmosphere is a bit wrong.”

Qin Sheng coldly glanced at everyone. He had inherited the memory of the Pill Emperor Wanjie. How could he not see through the greed in the eyes of these little brats. He tossed the warm scorpion-tailed tiger beast egg in his hand up and down, and the corner of his mouth curled up at a playful angle. Those who were familiar with Qin Sheng knew exactly that Qin Sheng was preparing to trick people.

At this time, don’t provoke Qin Sheng, and it would be best to hide as far as possible.

“Don’t even think about it. This scorpion-tailed tiger beast egg was first discovered by me, Zhao Qiongcang. It belongs to my Zhao family.”

“Hmph, whoever dares to go against me is to offend the Zhao Family in Dayan City, then you can await the anger of the Zhao Family!” Zhao Qiongcang threatened without disguise. Zhao Qiongcang grinned ferociously, and there was a burst of hostility in his expression,

The Dayan City where Qin Sheng came from was located on the edge of the Devil Dragon Mining Area. There were hundreds of families in Dayan City, most of which were poor families like the Qin family, and there were also behemoths like the Zhao family!

The three strongest families in Dayan City included the Zhao family, the Han family, and the Qin family. The Zhao family was the strongest; the Han family was ranked the second; and the Qin family was considered the weakest. The Han family and the Qin family banded together to fight against the Zhao family. This showed how powerful the Zhao family was in Dayan City.

These students were faced with the threat of Zhao Qiongcang. Other students in the mine cave didn’t even dare to move, their hearts trembling and expression serious. They were well aware of the Zhao family’s modus operandi. If they really offended the Zhao family, their little family couldn’t bear the Zhao family’s anger!

Han Tailong stepped forward, covering Qin Sheng behind him, and shouted at Zhao Qiongcang, “What do you mean? Are you going to fight us?”

“During the trial and assessment period, students are not allowed to fight each other. Are you not afraid of the punishment by the tutors of Floating Cloud Academy?”

Zhao Qiongcang sneered and didn’t say anything. The tutors of Floating Cloud Academy should be hunting that enraged scorpion-tailed tiger, and they didn’t have time to supervise the student’s assessment.

Zhao Qiongcang was already imagining the scene of receiving the family’s award after obtaining the scorpion-tailed tiger beast egg.

Zhao Qiongcang walked a few steps closer. He was arrogant and condescending. His burly stature was faintly surging with meta force, and he had already opened the third meridian. No wonder his aura was so terrifying!

On the path of cultivation, a warrior must first open up the meridians. Every warrior had at least one meridian buried in the body. As long as the meridians were opened, they could absorb the meta force between heaven and earth and temper their bodies! The more meridians that were opened up, the more meta force one could absorb, and naturally the more powerful the tempered body was !

Zhao Qiongcang stretched out his palm, condescendingly, and commanded in an undoubted tone, “Hand over the monster egg, and I promise you will not suffer too much physical pain!”

At this time, Han Tailong also lowered his voice and persuaded, “Qin Sheng, just give it to him. This bastard Zhao Qiongcang has opened up three meridians, and his strength is far above you and me. As the saying goes: A hero will not take the brunt. We can report this accident to our families when the trial is over. Naturally our family elders will help us seek justice.”

Qin Sheng did not listen to Han Tailong’s advice. He walked forward. According to the memory of the Pill Emperor Wanjie, he used the secret method, and run the weak meta force inside his body. But Qin Sheng’s talent was really very ordinary, and to put it more properly, it was a bit lame. He only opened one meridian.

“Qin Sheng, Come back. Don’t do anything stupid!” Han Tailong tried to pull Qin Sheng back.

“What? You still want to go against me?” Zhao Qiongcang sneered, his expression full of disdain, and the meta force in his body became more intense.

Qin Sheng whispered, smiling with a hint of banter, “Time’s almost up!”

“If you kneel down now, I can still give you a chance to live on!” Qin Sheng suddenly said coldly.

The crowd was shocked, and the dim cave seemed more dead. Zhao Qiongcang was also surprised. At first he was a little confused, then the anger burst into his mind like a volcanic eruption.

Even Han Tailong was shocked. “Give Zhao Qiongcang a chance to live on?” Oops, the poison of the scorpion-tailed tiger must have reached Qin Sheng’s head. He was clearly not sober.

Han Tailong hurriedly pulled Qin Sheng and persuaded: “Are you crazy? He has opened the three meridians. He can break your leg with one punch! It’s no use bluffing at this time. Let’s endure him for a while. The most important thing right now is to pass the assessment for Floating Cloud Academy.”

“Are you kneeling or not?” Qin Sheng ignored Han Tailong and shouted loudly. His whole body’s aura and temperament was completely renewed, and his eyes looked like…like a fierce scorpion-tailed tiger!

Zhao Qiongcang stared straight into Qin Sheng’s eyes, and there was a feeling of being stared by a scorpion-tailed tiger! Damn it, this feeling was already the second time. Zhao Qiongcang thought it was an illusion at first.

However, when Zhao Qiongcang felt the surging meta force in the body, he regained his confidence and directly delivered a blow!

He smiled cruelly, gathered surging meta force into his fists, and pounced on Qin Sheng.

Everyone didn’t dare to see what would happen to Qin Sheng.

“Pop!”

Zhao Qiongcang took a few steps back and a red hand slap print was applied to his face.

“How is that possible?” Zhao Qiongcang covered his right face which was hot from the slap. He was confused. How could Qin Sheng slap him in the face?

The students standing by and watching in the cave were also very shocked. They thought Qin Sheng had opened one meridian at most. How could he hit Zhao Qiongcang that had opened three meridians?

Was it a coincidence?

Yes, it must be a coincidence!

“You are so dead!” Zhao Qiongcang excoriated Qin Sheng, then he soared and attacked again!

Qin Sheng said coldly again, “I think you’re looking for death.”

Pop! Pop!

Qin Sheng slapped Zhao Qiongcang so hard that he fell upside down. His face was as swollen as a pig’s head, and his teeth were slapped off.

Zhao Qiongcang was both shocked and angry. He clearly felt full of meta force, but he couldn’t let it out, and the most damnable thing was that Qin Sheng seemed to be able to see through his martial arts movements and hit him easily.

There was no way he could know that Qin Sheng right now was no longer the Qin Sheng that everyone could bully before. Now, Qin Sheng had inherited the memory of Pill Emperor Wanjie, which contained rich combat experience that was unfathomable to Zhao Qiongcang who had only opened up three meridians. It was a piece of cake for Qin Sheng to overwhelm this kind of low-level martial arts right now!

“Do you think there’s no poison on the egg? It just needs some time to start to work!” Qin Sheng meaningfully glanced at Zhao Qiongcang with a deep smile.

“What! You poisoned me with the venom of scorpion-tailed tiger?” Zhao Qiongcang was horrified and cold all over the body. He feel dizzy, and his thinking line got slower and slower, and the meta force in his body had already dissipated.

“I’m done, the venom is going inside the meridians.” Zhao Qiongcang’s face was pale, and hurriedly took out an ampule from his chest pocket, poured out a middle-level antidote, and swallowed it immediately.

Qin Sheng observed the whole process calmly and said indifferently, “If you take the middle-level antidote in the first place, the venom can still be suppressed and won’t kick out until you go back to the academy. But you just ran your meta force with all your strength and the venom has gone deep into the meridians. There is little time left for you.”

Hearing the words, Zhao Qiongcang’s face turned even paler, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. He felt his breath was weaker and weaker, his eyelids heavier and heavier as if he would fall asleep and never wake up at any time.

“Kneel down now, and I can still give you a chance to live.” Suddenly, the voice of Qin Sheng sounded like a thunder in the ears of the dying Zhao Qiongcang.

Zhao Qiongcang bit his tongue tip hard, causing a pain that awakened him into a jerk. Then he looked up towards the towering Qin Sheng with unusual temperament. He was like a drowning swimmer, and could count on nobody other than Qin Sheng at this time.

“Yes, Qin Sheng was also poisoned by the venom of scorpion-tailed tiger and didn’t die! He must know how to cure it!” With a plop, Zhao Qiongcang knelt in front of Qin Sheng.

With his life on the line, Zhao Qiongcang had totally forgave his pride and esteem, and he chose to save his own hide.

Plop!

“Qin Sheng, I beg you as a fellow classmate. Please save me.”

Zhao Qiongcang knelt and begged Qin Sheng. He nearly shitted his pants in the panic.
