Chapter 446
446 An Invitation from the Zhan Family Head
In the huge arena, the cheers came in wave after wave.
Everyone stood up and shouted Gu Lan’s name, but what they didn’t know was that this was a fake name that Gu Xi came up with in order to not expose her identity.
The earth-shattering battle with Zhan Hong had obviously made a name for himself. On the other hand, Gu Xi was still standing calmly at her original spot with a calm expression. She was not affected by the crowd’s cheers and enthusiasm.
When the crowd’s cheers gradually subsided, Gu Xi turned her eyes to the judge not far away, indicating that he could continue to the next round.
The judge understood and immediately looked at the unsightly faces of the Zhan family members below the stage. He said in a deep voice, ” next up is the ninth round of the competition. Participants, please hurry up and get on the stage.
Hearing this, the faces of the few people from the Zhan family turned even uglier.
If even Zhan Hong was no match for him, what was the point of competing? Was it embarrassing?
“My Zhan family requests for a temporary suspension of the competition.”
At this moment, the Zhan family’s leader, a middle-aged man, took a step forward and glanced at Gu Xi’s position. He raised his hand and pointed at the ring that was being used by the wolves and continued, ” the damage to the arena will greatly affect the performance of our contestants, so I hope that we can pause the competition and continue after the arena is repaired.
The judge was stunned for a moment, then he looked around at the destroyed stage and couldn’t help but nod. However, he couldn’t make the decision with his status, so he looked at the high platform.
Whether the competition could be postponed or not, it was still decided by the people on the high platform.
“That’s reasonable. This request is also within the rules of the competition.”
Very quickly, Jiang Li’s voice slowly sounded.
Seeing that even the higher-ups had no questions, the judge did not dare to delay and announced in a deep voice, due to the damage to the arena, the next competition will be postponed after the restoration of the arena is completed!
When this news spread, everyone could not help but be somewhat disappointed.
Although Gu Xi had already defeated Zhan Hong, there were still three people from the Zhan family who had not gone up yet. These people were not easy to deal with.
The final result of the competition was still unknown.
“But if it’s delayed, won’t gu LAN recover by then? What are the Zhan family thinking if they don’t take advantage of Gu Lan’s exhaustion to continue their attack?”
A person on the grandstand could not help but ask this question. The same question appeared in the hearts of many others, but after all, the Zhan family did not say anything.
Gu Xi was also rather surprised by the Zhan family’s decision, but he did not insist on continuing with the competition. In his opinion, no matter when the competition was held, it would not change the final result.
Since the competition had been postponed, Gu Xi did not stay on the stage for long. She turned around and went straight back to the team’s room in the myriad treasure Pavilion.
When he returned to his room, Hou Yu and the others had already left. Everyone, including Tong Shan and Tang Qilin, was staring at him.
“What’s wrong with you guys?”
Facing everyone’s gaze, Gu Xi could not help but feel a little uncomfortable.
“It’s fine, it’s fine,”
Tong Shan coughed a few times and could not help but burst out laughing. He walked to Gu Xi’s side and patted her shoulder a few times before continuing, ” “Your performance today was not bad. Hurry back to the pavilion and recover. I don’t want to leave behind any hidden dangers.”
Hearing this, Gu Xi did not have any objections. She turned around and followed Tong Shan and the other man back to the myriad treasure Pavilion. On the other hand, Hou Yu and the others, who were ignored, looked embarrassed.
I didn’t expect Gu LAN to be so strong. Even Zhan Hong isn’t her match.
Looking at Gu Xi’s back as she disappeared around the corner, Nan Qian could not help but whisper.
Liu Shi and Wang Tianli both nodded in agreement.
to think that we mocked him so much earlier. Now that I think about it, it’s really laughable.
Wang Tianli sighed, his face burning.
Even Hou Yu, who had been silent all this while, did not have any objections. It was obvious that he had been convinced by Gu Xi’s strength.
It was only at this moment that he finally recognized the gap between him and Gu Xi.
He had to admit that Gu Xi was very strong, much stronger than he thought. She was much stronger than he thought, much stronger than he was.
In a room in the myriad treasure Pavilion.
Gu Xi sat cross-legged on the bed, breathing with a faint spiritual power.
It had been two hours since his battle with Zhan Hong. In this short time, all of his injuries and energy had recovered. He was full of energy, and no one could tell that he had just gone through a battle.
If news of such a terrifying recovery speed were to spread, everyone’s jaws would drop, and they would curse him for being abnormal.
As she continued to breathe, Gu Xi’s eyelids twitched and her dark eyes slowly opened. A light flashed in the depths of her eyes.
I didn’t expect my cultivation base to increase so much after this battle.
Gu Xi couldn’t help but smile after checking the spiritual power in her dantian.
Right now, his cultivation was at the intermediate stage of the Saint realm. After the battle with Zhan Hong, his cultivation, which had not improved all this while, had now increased a little. He was one step closer to the advanced stage of the Saint realm.
“With this rate of progress, I believe that it won’t be long before I reach the bottleneck of the late stage of the sage realm. At that time, I’ll find an opportunity to make the next breakthrough.”
Feeling the spiritual power in her body getting stronger and stronger, Gu Xi nodded in satisfaction.
The next moment, he squinted his eyes and felt a faint fluctuation in the distance.
The next moment, a muffled sound was heard, as if something had been nailed to the wall.
Gu Xi thought for a moment and immediately got up to go out and check. She saw a letter nailed to the wall by an arrow.
Gu Xi took it off and a few big words came into view.
“Zhan Wushuang from the Zhan family invites little friend Gu LAN for a chat!”
