Getting Stronger By Fighting

Chapter 923: Chapter 921: Peak Showdown

The faces of the Wolf Gang members all turned much uglier, and at this moment, no one said anything.

Xiang Tian, with his arms crossed, stepped in front of Wang Zhan, a cold smile tugging at his lips as he spoke coolly, "Brother Wang, perhaps you don’t know what’s in their hearts; some people will follow whoever gives them milk."

"Truly embarrassing for us."

Immediately, the Wolf Gang members all lowered their heads.

The Wolf Emperor, standing at the forefront, squinted his eyes slightly, his gaze sweeping over the Wolf Gang members before settling on Wang Zhan. He then said calmly, "Boy, stop stoking the fire here."

"Even if you talk until you’re blue in the face, these people won’t become your subordinates, after all..."

"They don’t have the ability to leave either."

Wang Zhan’s expression changed; it was clear he didn’t understand the implied meaning in the leader’s words.

In his mind, the Sword Spirit spoke slowly, "I feel like there’s poison inside their bodies. The Wolf Gang leader must have fed them something to control them. But regardless, they brought this upon themselves when they chose to stand before him."

Wang Zhan nodded; there was no denying the terrifying means of the Wolf Gang leader.

However, having already faced off today, he must rid the Star War Battlefield of this menace.

Impatiently, the Wolf Emperor remarked, "Boy, I don’t have time to spar with you here."

"You have one chance. If you surrender quietly, I won’t hold anything against you further. But if you resist, don’t blame me for being rude; this time next year will be the anniversary of your death."

Heh...

Wang Zhan’s lips curled in a cold smile, and he charged at the Wolf Emperor first.

Since that’s the case, there’s no need to waste time.

As Wang Zhan moved, Xiang Tian also prepared to act.

In mid-air, Wang Zhan turned his head, glanced in Xiang Tian’s direction, and spoke slowly, "Stay here and don’t interfere in our matters. Wait until I deal with the Wolf Emperor, then you all can join in. After all, this bastard exceeds my expectations greatly. If we can’t control him, it would be a catastrophic blow to us once he enters the battlefield."

Xiang Tian nodded heavily.

Xuan Yu approached Xiang Tian, squinted slightly, glanced at the distant Wolf Emperor, shook his head, and remarked, "I knew this guy wouldn’t easily give up. He’d definitely come looking for our Sky Pavilion soon, but I didn’t expect them to arrive so quickly; in just this short amount of time, they’re already here..."

At these words, Xiang Tian’s gaze fell on Xuan Yu, and he retorted irritably, "I knew it, you’d start talking down again. But if you continue spouting nonsense here, don’t blame me for being rude!"

Xuan Yu ignored Xiang Tian, knowing the imminent threat required addressing the Wolf Gang members urgently.

In a blink, the battlefield saw Wang Zhan already clashing with the Wolf Emperor.

At the same time, the commotion reached the back mountain where Feng Tianci and another were.

Feng Tianci, who was resting with closed eyes, slowly opened them. He glanced toward the main gate of Sky Pavilion and spoke flatly, "Seems like the Wolf Gang is here too, and I sense the presence of the Wolf Emperor. He must already be engaged in battle with Wang Zhan."

Upon hearing these words, Zuo Linglong’s face fell rapidly. She hurried out of the cave, glanced toward the main gate of Sky Pavilion, then turned back and called out, "Master, do we still stay here, or should we rush out to help fight now?"

"It’s not yet time for us to expose ourselves. Wang Zhan ought to hold off the Wolf Emperor for a while. With his strength, he should be able to counter him, although ultimately he might not be a match. We just need to act at the most critical moment. For Wang Zhan, this is also a valuable opportunity."

Left stunned by these words, Zuo Linglong stared at Feng Tianci and questioned, "If Wang Zhan is not a match for the Wolf Emperor, he will soon be defeated. With the Wolf Emperor’s power, he won’t let Wang Zhan go easily. How can this be beneficial to him?"

Feng Tianci’s lips curved into a slight smile, and he stood with his arms behind his back, gazing into the distance before speaking, "You’re still young and can’t grasp the mystery within. For Wang Zhan to break through his cultivation level barrier, he needs endless battle to grasp new combat experience. Then, his strength would further increase."

"In other words, what he needs right now are formidable opponents to constantly break through his limits. Although this is risky, with me holding down the fort, he naturally won’t have to worry much. When absolutely necessary, I will step in directly."

Upon hearing this, Zuo Linglong’s mouth immediately revealed a trace of doubt, "Master, you haven’t even fought against the Wolf Emperor, how can you be so sure you’re a match for him? If even you can’t handle the Wolf Emperor, wouldn’t the entire Sky Pavilion be in danger?"

Feng Tianci’s lips curled into a confident smile. After patting Zuo Linglong on the shoulder, he slowly spoke: "Did you forget the way Wang Zhan looked when he found me? He even gave me so many elixirs, the intention was clear, he hoped I would fight against the Wolf Emperor. I suppose he’s guided by experts; otherwise, he wouldn’t be so confident."

"Experts?"

Zuo Linglong quickly asked this question.

In Zuo Linglong’s impression, it seemed that many people surrounded Wang Zhan, but none were stronger than him. Not even Dong Tianlei could rival Wang Zhan now. Inside Tian Pavilion, only Feng Tianci could overpower Wang Zhan...

So where could there be any experts?

Feng Tianci also fell into a moment of contemplation. A long time ago, he noticed that Wang Zhan’s actions were peculiar, as if someone was always by his side. He had checked several times but found nothing unusual.

Later, Feng Tianci concluded that Wang Zhan’s body must have a Soul Body.

Precisely because of this, Wang Zhan’s strength has grown significantly.

"Master, what are you thinking about?"

Beside him, Zuo Linglong asked again.

Feng Tianci spoke faintly: "I’m just pondering over matters related to Wang Zhan. But now, as I see it, the person beside Wang Zhan should be an unknown expert. However, with your strength, you simply cannot sense his presence."

Zuo Linglong nodded without saying anything.

Meanwhile, the two in the battle circle had reached a fever pitch.

Both the Wolf Gang members and those inside Sky Pavilion were watching the battle.

At the same time, Luo Xue glanced at Dong Tianlei beside him and then frowned, asking: "Brother Wang has already fought with the Wolf Emperor, and we still can’t tell who holds the upper hand. If they continue fighting like this, who knows how long it will last? Are we just going to stay here quietly and wait?"

After all, Luo Xue and others were hiding in the shadows, ready to strike at any moment.

However, even though Luo Xue’s strength is far inferior to Wang Zhan, and cannot compare to the Wolf Emperor and others, he can still see that Wang Zhan seems to be at a disadvantage the whole time.

If it continues like this, I fear it won’t be long before Wang Zhan loses.

Dong Tianlei instinctively glanced towards the direction of the back mountain, then slowly said: "Did you forget the expert in the back mountain? With him there, we have nothing to fear. I believe he will intervene at the crucial moment to assist. This might be a test for Wang Zhan; after all, considering Wang Zhan’s current strength, holding on for a while shouldn’t be too difficult."

Luo Xue nodded, but his eyes remained full of concern.

Dong Tianlei slowly said: "Just rest assured. I know you have a good relationship with Wang Zhan and the others. Although I haven’t known you all for long, I have a high regard for Wang Zhan, and he is much smarter than you imagine, so he won’t risk his life recklessly."

Luo Xue then nodded.

But his gaze never left Wang Zhan.

In an instant, there was a series of loud explosions from the sky.

Immediately, Wang Zhan was sent flying backward.

All of a sudden, a trace of worry appeared on everyone’s faces.

Xiang Tian, standing on one side, quickly clenched his fists and rushed to Wang Zhan’s side. Then, he looked up in the direction of the Wolf Emperor and said, "Brother Wang, are you okay? Didn’t expect this bastard to be so strong; if you can’t handle him, I’ll help you face him together?"

Heh...

Wang Zhan’s mouth revealed a slight smile as he clutched his chest and glanced at Xiang Tian, "You?"
