Chapter 146 Ghost-Faced Arhat

Knowing that he only needed to wait another month for the treatment to be completed, Xu Xian's mood improved considerably.

I got up, tidied up the lab bench, and continued the experiment.

Seeing his light and quick movements, and even humming an unknown tune, Bai Lan and the other three looked at each other, wondering if he had figured it out.

Xu Xian was overjoyed.

Inside the battlefield stadium.

Having experienced the strength of the Blue-Eyed White Ape, Wu Qiang lost interest in continuing to entangle with Qian Hongwen.

He didn't speak, but the Shadow Paladin already understood and raised his broadsword.

This broadsword is a full 1.8 meters long, with a blade that is about the width of two palms. In the middle of the blade, numerous unidentified patterns extend from the tip of the blade to the hilt.

As the Shadow Paladin raised his broadsword, the patterns on it suddenly burst forth with a holy white light.

Under the white light, the skeletal warhorse beneath it suddenly transformed. Sweeped by the holy light, the skeletal form instantly became a truly flesh-and-blood holy celestial horse.

"Holy Judgment!"

This startled cry emanated from the soul of the armored knight of the Shadow Paladin.

The moment the sound appeared, holy light surged forth from the entire body of the Shadow Paladin.

The profound spiritual space of the blue-eyed white ape seemed to lose its color instantly, as if it had encountered light in darkness.

The broadsword of the Shadow Paladin shone brightly, transforming into a massive three-meter-long holy sword.

hum! !

A sword slashed down.

Under Qian Hongwen's horrified gaze, even though the blue-eyed white ape unleashed its mental power to create a shield, it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Amidst the shattered, eerie blue light, a white figure was sent flying backwards and crashed heavily to the ground.

"His strength is not bad," Wu Qiang commented.

Qian Hongwen clenched his fists, his face so dark it was almost dripping with water.

He took several deep breaths and stared intently at Wu Qiang as he led the blue-eyed white ape away to heal his injuries.

In the stands, Meng Liang stretched and glanced sideways, "It's our turn now. I hope you're stronger and not as weak as this guy."

Qian Hongwu felt a sense of unease and brought his golden ape into the arena.

With a gentle press of the Phantom Beast Ball in his hand, a red light appeared from the patterns on the eighteen silver mirrors, instantly enveloping the Skeleton Shadow Holy Knight.

In less than half a second, the four-meter-tall Shadow Paladin vanished without a trace.

Apart from Meng Liang, who had just left the field, everyone was staring at the Phantom Beast Ball.

The more I look at this, the more I want it.

Qian Hongwu looked at Meng Liang, who was also only carrying a small bag, and asked, "You have a Mythical Beast Ball too?"

Meng Liang nodded and took out a magical beast ball that looked exactly like Wu Qiang's from his small bag.

"Wu Qiang and I grew up together since we were little. Our families are old friends. I always hung out with that senior from Yuncheng when I was young, so I was lucky enough to get a spot with him."

"It's truly enviable," Zhou Li said from the spectator stands.

"Don't be envious. As long as you win the national inter-college competition, each of you will get at least one," Wu Qiang said.

Zhou Li shook his head, "Although I am very capable, I still have to avoid the sharp edge of those third- and fourth-year students."

Wu Qiang laughed, "You're quite the impolite one."

There aren't any second-year students, right?

He asked, "Can you tell me who Meng Liang attacked?"

Zhou Lidao: "Qian Hongwu, fourth."

"How's your strength?"

"He's no match for you, but your companions don't know that." Zhou Li wasn't blind; anyone could see that Wu Qiang's Shadow Knight was definitely on par with Xu Xian's Vawa.

"Meng Liang's strength is not bad." Wu Qiang looked down.

He smiled slightly and said, "After the Capital Rookie King Competition, we were called the Twin Stars. This guy has been my rival since childhood."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Li and the others' expressions hardened.

If that's the case, then Qian Hongwu is probably—

With Wu Qiang's previous introduction, Meng Liang gently pressed the Phantom Beast Ball.

Click click click—!

A vast expanse of red light, like mist.

A short while later, a bronze-colored stone statue appeared.

This stone statue wasn't as tall as the Shadow Knight, only two and a half meters tall. The statue had bulging muscles and no hair; it was bald.

Its overall appearance is approachable, with a blue face and fangs, a ferocity mixed with a kind of Buddha-nature, and a kind of compassionate and dignified presence.

"Another high-grade silver-level spirit beast!!" Many students who recognized it exclaimed in surprise.

When did silver-grade spirit beasts become so worthless?

Oh, we have the same thing here. It's nothing!

After their initial surprise, the students calmed down as they reflected on what this year's new students had gained.

"A top-grade silver-ranked Arhat with both metal and earth attributes!"

Qian Hongwu's heart grew extremely heavy.

It seems he could fight other spirit beasts, even Xu Xian's Wawa and that unknown spirit beast, his own King Kong Ape could struggle against them.

It can be called the Ghost-Faced Arhat.

"Innate Buddha's Wrath" greatly enhances the body's strength and defense when in a rage state.

The Ghost-Faced Arhat is a powerful spirit beast that combines offense and defense.

Among silver-grade spirit beasts, its strength and defense surpass even the Shadow Knight, and it is very similar to the Vajra Ape.

However, precisely because of their similarities, they have extremely low compatibility when fighting each other.

Or rather, the compatibility with the gorilla is extremely low.

"You're having a really bad time," Meng Liang said with a smile.

"Hmph! We'll know once we fight!" Qian Hongwu sneered, and the Golden Ape charged forward.

As a master of spirit beasts, Qian Hongwu has always been courageous in challenging others and enjoys battle.

King Kong, following Qian Hongwu, naturally picked up these habits as well.

The enormous fist, its body shimmering with golden light, slammed towards the Ghost-Faced Arhat.

But then they saw the demon-faced Arhat with his hands clasped together in prayer.

"clang--!!"

A loud bang.

The gorilla's fist was blocked 20 centimeters away from the demon-faced arhat.

Qian Hongwu was very familiar with the thing that was blocking its punch.

The thick, diamond-like shield transformed into a golden sphere of light, completely protecting the Ghost-Faced Arhat.

"This is the second stage of the Vajra Shield!" Zhou Li exclaimed.

His golden-armored beast has been working hard these days, but mastering the Vajra Shield skill still feels like a long way off.

Improving your proficiency in advanced skills is extremely difficult!

Despite having his attack blocked, King Kong was not discouraged.

He let out a low growl.

His entire body erupted with golden crystals, boosting all his attributes.

Like a silverback gorilla, it raised its arms high and slammed them down on the golden sphere of light in front of it like a giant pendulum.

The clanging sound, like the clanging of metal being struck, rang out incessantly.

The demon-faced arhat's ferocious face was tinged with compassion. His brass-colored hands were clasped together, his fangs were slightly open, and he was muttering incomprehensible words.

As it continued chanting, suddenly, a compassionate golden light emanated from its entire body.

It's not irritating to the eyes and is very gentle.

Because they had been unable to break through the Demon-Faced Arhat's Vajra Shield after a long and fierce attack, the Vajra Ape, whose face was usually ferocious, became gentle.

The ferocity in its eyes gradually disappeared, and its massive arms even appeared to be clasped together.

"Ah Jin!!" Qian Hongwu shouted.

A deafening roar of thunder instantly entered King Kong's brain.

In an instant, my mind cleared up.

Meng Liang was surprised. "They actually woke up through the telepathic calls of the human and the beast? But, let's stop here!"

Meng Liang raised his arm.

The compassionate expression on the face of the demon suddenly changed.

"As the saying goes, even Buddha has a fierce and wrathful expression!" Meng Liang said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the bronze-colored appearance of the Ghost-Faced Arhat began to glow with golden light, and in an instant, it transformed from a bronze-colored Ghost-Faced Arhat into a golden-colored Ghost-Faced Arhat.

During this process, its size also continued to increase.

In less than a second, the height increased from 2.5 meters to 5 meters, and the oppressive aura was no less than that of the Shadow Knight, who was stronger than Wu Qiang, and even more so.

"Ah!!"

The demon-faced Arhat roared, his left hand bowing to the Buddha, while his right hand suddenly formed a palm strike, aiming at the Vajra Ape.

At that moment, Qian Hongwu felt as if the air under the Ghost-Faced Arhat's palm was being pushed towards him like a hurricane, making it almost impossible for him to open his eyes.

Even so, Qian Hongwu would not admit defeat.

"Go! Ah Jin!!"

He called out loudly, and the gorilla rushed forward to greet him.

Hug your arms together and clasp your hands together.

Faced with the Ghost-Faced Arhat's palm strike, the Golden Ape unleashed its strongest power.

"Thump—!!"

A hurricane-like force erupted from the palm and the fists of the arm.

The howling wind made the students' ears ring.

It's either that they're just not compatible, or that the Ghost-Faced Arhat is a better replacement for the King Kong.

Strength, defense, burst of power —

It is superior to King Kong in every aspect.

It can be resisted at first contact, but over time...

The demon-faced arhat's large hand immediately covered the Vajra ape's full-force double-arm hammer strike.

Its immense power overwhelmed King Kong, like slapping a table tennis ball, sending King Kong flying.

At this point, the gorilla had not yet lost its ability to fight. Although it was in excruciating pain all over its body, it did not stop it from trying to control its body and adjust its breathing. It was determined to fight back.

However, exclamations of surprise followed.

Qian Hongwu's pupils contracted.

The five-meter-tall demon-faced Arhat had somehow appeared behind the Vajra Ape flying backwards in the air.

Both involve bowing to Buddha with the left hand and making a palm gesture with the right.

The gorilla tilted its head back and saw a golden hand coming down.

"Bang!!"

The dull thud of flesh hitting the ground resounded loudly throughout the arena.

After this attack, King Kong was no longer able to fight. Blood flowed from all over his body, and he fainted.

Qian Hongwu took a deep breath and exhaled heavily. He looked at Meng Liang, as well as the Ghost-Faced Arhat who had returned to his normal size and had a brass-colored face.

"Next time, I'll win!"

"I'm really looking forward to it." Meng Liang stepped forward and extended his right hand.

Qian Hongwu was taken aback for a moment, but seeing that the other party looked sincere and had no intention of mocking him, he reached out and shook hands with him.

From the stands, Yu Yu sighed, "Another loss."

It's not that I can't afford to lose.

The strength of the Shadow Paladin and the Ghost-Faced Arhat is obvious to everyone.

These two guys look like big bosses just by standing there.

But Shucheng University is, after all, the territory of Shucheng University students, and it is really unpleasant for outsiders to swagger around here.

"It's simple if you don't want to lose, just win." Wu Qiang looked at Yu Yu, or more precisely, at the ferocious dragon carp beside Yu Yu.

Even without using his spiritual eye, he could sense the terrifying energy contained within this ferocious dragon carp.

"That's true," Yu Yu said with a smile. "If you don't mind, I, the third-place finisher, will have a match with you."

"You're only third, the one named Yu Yu?" Wu Qiang asked in surprise, he thought the other person was Zhou Li, who was ranked second.

"What, I don't look like the second best, do I?" Zhou Li said, clearly annoyed.

"Haha, it's just unexpected." Wu Qiang waved his hands repeatedly.

Wu Qiang walked straight off the field and, as he met Meng Liang, said, "I'll take Yu Yu for third place, and Zhou Li for second place is yours, but Xu Xian has to be mine."

Meng Liang: "?"

Dude, are you playing this game?

It was five o'clock in the afternoon.

The laboratory building has three floors.

Xu Xian picked up a small piece of crystal with tweezers again. This time, he neutralized it, bringing the dragon attribute energy and ice attribute energy after the crystal frost dragon's scales were purified to a more peaceful state.

Add the crystals to the medicinal solution.

The same boiling and violent shaking that had occurred before happened again.

However, the liquid did not freeze and condense as it did last time after being shaken out.

Xu Xian's eyes lit up.

The liquid was boiling and shaking violently, emitting white steam, and there was a chill in the steam.

"So instead of reducing it, we should adjust its stability." Xu Xian stroked his chin, looking at the almost boiling and splashing liquid of the medicine, and had a new idea.

Quickly record the test data.

six o'clock.

The only senior student in the lab, Senior Sister Mao, came over.

She asked softly, "Junior, have you finished your work?"

Xu Xian nodded, "More or less."

At this time, he planned to have a meal, check on Wawa and Niu Niu's training progress, and then continue conducting experiments in the lab.

"Is there something you need, Senior Sister Mao?" Xu Xian asked, looking at the senior sister.

Senior Mao took out her phone, which showed several videos that someone had sent her.

Xu Xian took the phone and looked at it.

Qian Hongwen's Blue-Eyed White Ape suffered a crushing defeat, and Qian Hongwu's Golden Ape was also defeated.

The ferocious dragon carp of Yu Yu —

Xu Xian's eyes widened in astonishment. "This is—a Tidal Sea Spirit at the proficient stage!"

In the video, the ferocious dragon carp summons its own sea spirit to fight fiercely against the Shadow Knight.

The fight was quite intense, causing some trouble for the Shadow Paladin, but he was ultimately defeated by being cut down with a single sword strike.

Then came his good friend Zhou Li.

Xiao Tanyang and the Golden Armored Beast fought against the Ghost-Faced Arhat, one defending and the other attacking.

The demon-faced Arhat was truly disgusting.

If it weren't for the powerful defense that the Ghost-Faced Arhat possessed, they really wouldn't have been able to win.

However, after defeating Xiaotan Yang and Jinjiashou, he was also covered in dust and looked rather disheveled.

It's mainly a two-on-one situation.

Although the Ghost-Faced Arhat is good at both offense and defense, he is a melee fighter.

It would be much better if it were a Shadow Paladin in the battle.

"These two are very strong." Xu Xian's eyes were solemn.

Senior Mao said, "My classmates know you're busy, so they filmed a video for me and said they want you to see it and see if you want to teach those two a lesson."

Xu Xian glanced at the time, then looked at the video.

Both sides were engaged in normal combat.

Wu Qiang and Meng Liang were both quite polite.

At first I thought they were here to challenge me, but now it seems they weren't.

In that case, there's even less reason to fight them.

"No, I need to watch Wawa and Niu Niu's training. I'll continue my experiments after dinner. I don't have time for that," Xu Xian shook his head.

After saying goodbye to the other three, she returned the phone to Senior Sister Mao and left.

As Bai Lan watched him leave, she sighed, "If it weren't for the fact that he's so outstanding, with his schedule packed full of activities and no competitive spirit, he wouldn't be able to achieve that."

"It's not impossible," a male senior said, and Bai Lan and the other two looked at him.

The male senior said, "Everyone is competitive; we're all young. It's just that they probably feel it's unnecessary, or that it's not as important as the experiment."

"That's true." Bai Lan and the other two nodded.

Having spent some time with Xu Xian, Bai Lan and the others had a general understanding of who he was.

Simply put, Xu Xian is very rational in most situations.
