Jiang Hao glanced at the spirit beast and chuckled. The match hadn’t started yet, so he didn’t leave immediately.
“Oh, it’s my turn.” Xiao Li heard someone calling her name.
Placing the spirit beast in Jiang Hao’s arms, she ran straight up to the platform.
Jiang Hao lowered his head and locked eyes with the spirit beast.
“Master, isn’t this spot for your lady?” the spirit beast asked nervously.
Jiang Hao didn’t say anything. He just grabbed the spirit beast and tossed it aside.
Soon the spirit beast was airborne. It was standing on two golden rings.
They were its two old collars.
Now, the spirit beast wore one collar around its neck, a bracelet on its wrist, and had pristine white feathers on its head.
Overall, it looked quite impressive. It really looked like a Golden Core demon. “Master, did you find a lady?” the spirit beast asked curiously.
“Why would you ask that?” Jiang Hao looked at Xiao Li.
She and her opponent seem to be exchanging greetings and getting ready for a fight.
Xiao Li seemed eager to start but was stopped by the other person.
They just continued introducing themselves. They introduced their origin, name, and then their magical treasures.
Jiang Hao had no idea when they would start.
“I heard from the people at the Spirit Herb Garden that you should have children by the time you’re in your thirties. It’s normal for you to have a lady by now.” The spirit beast tugged at the collar on its neck. “When will you introduce me to her? I have a lot of potential. Your lady will surely like you more with a powerful spirit beast as a pet.”
Jiang Hao looked at the spirit beast.
He didn’t say anything about a lady.
The spirit beast nearly lost half its life because of her.
“If the lady is shy, will you consider getting another lady, Master?” asked the spirit beast. “I heard there’s a suitable one. Would you like to meet her? She holds me in high regard.”
Jiang Hao looked at the spirit beast in surprise. “Who told you this?”
“My friends. I know many things,” said the spirit beast as it took out a carrot from somewhere.
“Just tell me,” Jiang Hao said.
“Sister Miao thinks it’s a good idea to start with pets,” the spirit beast immediately said.
Jiang Hao was speechless.
Senior Sister Miao was relentless at this.
She was already in love. He didn’t understand why she wanted to involve him in this.
He was devoted to his cultivation path. He didn’t want to find a companion.
Moreover, it was impossible.
He was poisoned with the Gu Poison. Besides, there was Hong Yuye. Which partner would be pleased if Hong Yuye appeared suddenly?
“Xiao Li disagrees,” the spirit beast said.
Jiang Hao was somewhat surprised. “Why does she disagree?”
“I don’t know. She just disagrees. She says that others can’t be her sister-in-law,” said the beast.
The spirit beast pulled up its collars. It was happily suspended in the air.
Jiang Hao didn’t pay much attention to the spirit beast. He was concerned about Xiao Li.
The reason she said that might be because she had seen Hong Yuye at his place.
He shook his head and looked at the platform.
At that point, they still weren’t done with introducing themselves.
On the other side was a middle-stage Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator. She looked very nervous.
“I cultivate the Heavenly Profound Technique. I tempered my body at three, refined lifeblood at eight, and established my foundation at sixteen. My foundation is solid, and few opponents at the same level can match me. So far, I have defeated nine opponents at the same level. How about you?”
“Ah?” Xiao Li thought for a moment. “I have been cultivating for ten years. My progress isn’t as fast. I only established my foundation a few years ago. The spirit beast said my foundation isn’t solid enough, and my cultivation isn’t fast enough. However, I have defeated many opponents at the same level.
Probably…”
Xiao Li extended her fingers and counted. “Maybe more than ten? Oh right, do you know the spirit beast?”
Jiang Hao was speechless.
This young woman was quite interesting.
She was probably the wisest in the Blackheaven Sect.
Xiao Li was no match for her.
“Are there more matches for Xiao Li?” he asked.
“Yes. Two more,” the spirit beast said.
“Stay with her, and don’t wander off,” Jiang Hao said. He then left.
He was going to the platform. It was almost time.
He had been waiting for the opponent to arrive.
This time, he would pretend to struggle a lot and then lose.
That way, the force would leave his body. He didn’t want it to affect him. However, the person from the Blackheaven Sect didn’t come to face him.
He asked the referee.
The referee shrugged. “I’ll send someone to look for them.” Soon, he received a reply.
The opponent wasn’t feeling well, so the match had to be canceled.
Jiang Hao was speechless.
‘Next time? Isn’t that like giving up?’
“Congratulations, Junior Brother Jiang, on your five consecutive victories,” the referee said with a smile.
He then took out a long spear.
“The Raging Flame Spear. This is a Golden Core-level magical treasure. It’s quite decent.”
“Thank you, senior brother.”
Jiang Hao took the magical treasure gratefully, but he didn’t use it.
“It seems you prefer using a knife?” The referee chuckled. “Oh, it seems you don’t know me. I’m an Immortal Soul Alchemist from the Candlelight Pill
Pavilion, Bu Ye.”
Jiang Hao glanced at the person.
A little while later, Jiang Hao received nine thousand spirit stones in exchange for the spear.
The Raging Flame Spear was worth more than this, but he gave the person a discount.
He wanted to build a good relationship. Besides, a Golden Core Realm cultivator wasn’t very wealthy..
