My name is Wei Qing, and I want to fight the Xiongnu.

However, they didn't want to directly intervene, as standing against the mainstream regardless of victory or defeat wasn't a good choice, which is why they sought Chen Ajiao's help.

Fifty thousand points... Although it's not a lot in a gambling game, it at least relieved some of Cao Ying's pressure, and most importantly, it gave Cao Ying some confidence.

At this point, he was not fighting alone.

Just as Cao Ying was feeling gratified, Wei Qing, inside the Hundred Battles Pavilion, finally awoke from his great confusion in life.

What the hell is this?

It's gone after only twenty floors?

I haven't had enough fun yet!

Wei Qing was furious. He had just found a training ground that offered quick and easy progress without the risk of being superficial, but it had already been breached.

Hundred Battles Pavilion, give it your all, Hundred Battles Pavilion!

Shouldn't all 100 floors be set to hard mode?

What can you do with just twenty floors?

Could it be that they cut corners during construction?

Wei Qing was very irritable, genuinely irritable.

After undergoing the baptism of twenty levels of extreme difficulty, these ordinary tests hold absolutely no appeal for me.

Alright, it's time to officially challenge the pavilion.

I wonder how Cao Ying's gambling operation is going.

He naturally knew about Consort Han's trip to Hanoi County; she had specifically come to tell him about it before she left.

The reason Cao Ying was still sent over was because she knew that Consort Han was not there, which made Cao Ying feel uneasy.

This way, they can make the fake show seem real and trick the students watching into participating.

It's just unclear how well Cao Ying acted, and whether one or two fools actually fell for it.

Never mind, it's like killing two birds with one stone, let's catch one while we can.

With that thought in mind, Wei Qing entered the twenty-second floor and casually broke through it...

Outside the Hundred Battles Pavilion, those who had been whispering amongst themselves were all stunned for a few seconds when they saw the numbers on the crystal tablet suddenly change.

Just now... shouldn't it have been the 22nd floor?

How did it suddenly become a challenge on the 23rd floor?

Cao Ying noticed this at this time as well. It took a long time to pass the 20th and 21st floors, so why was it so fast to pass the 22nd floor?

Could it be that the test on the 22nd floor was very easy? That's why you passed it so easily?

Little did they know that when Wei Qing was fighting the phantom on the twentieth floor, he didn't spend much time fighting it, but he rested for a long time.

When attempting the 21st floor... I tried every possible way to find a hard mode, but after searching for a long time, I realized that there was no hard mode available.

Now that it was confirmed that there was no hard mode, Wei Qing naturally switched to speedrun mode.

Twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four...

Outside, Cao Ying and many other students stared at the numbers on the crystal monument as they changed continuously.

It took less than fifteen minutes to get past the twenty-second floor, then two cups of tea's time to get to the twenty-third floor, and then only one cup of tea's time for the rest...

Wei Qing's speed increased, and the so-called test of the Hundred Battles Pavilion was like a leisurely stroll for him, without him feeling any difficulty at all.

Cao Ying blinked, her mouth gradually widening...

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Want to be a good person? I'll grant your wish!

It was too fast. Starting from the twenty-first floor, Wei Qing's speed in breaking through the pavilion suddenly became unbelievable.

So much so that the students were stunned for a long time, wondering what strange and bizarre thing had happened in the Hundred Battles Pavilion.

For the first twenty floors, Wei Qing spent a full six hours, from shortly after sunrise to sunset and nightfall!

And now, in less than half an hour, they have already passed the thirty-fifth floor!

What's even more terrifying is that the speed of clearing the pavilions increases with each level. What the hell?

Does the difficulty of the Hundred Battles Pavilion increase with the number of floors? Can someone explain this?

Cao Ying, who had just been overwhelmed by the bet, was now filled with ecstasy.

I knew you could do it!

Seeing how fast Wei Qing rushed into the pavilion, Chen Ajiao's cherry lips parted slightly, and her eyes revealed a look of amazement.

She covered her red lips and giggled, "I didn't expect to be so lucky today. In the blink of an eye, I won a whole 50,000 points. When it's time to split the money, Cao Ying, you won't try to cheat Sister Ajiao, will you?"

When Cao Ying heard Chen Ajiao mention the bet, she couldn't stop smiling and hurriedly said, "No, no, Wei Qing hasn't even passed the fortieth floor yet, has he? If he really can pass it, Sister Ajiao will definitely win every penny, and Wei Qing and I will even give Sister Ajiao a big gift!"

It's better to offer help in times of need than to add flowers to brocade. Just now, when Cao Ying was about to give up, Chen Ajiao took out 50,000 points to bet on Wei Qing to win. This is a great favor.

Even the domineering Cao Ying knew what it meant to be grateful and repay kindness.

Chen Ajiao smiled radiantly; she was incredibly proud and looked down on so-called heroes of the world.

But I felt a faint sense of admiration for Wei Qing, a madman who dared to turn against all the teachers and students in the Imperial Academy before even stepping into it, and Cao Ying, a fool who dared to gamble with Pingyang Prefecture just to meet a companion he had only known for half a month.

Be the first to do good and dare to do what others dare not do!

After making her promise to Chen Ajiao, Cao Ying turned to look at Miao Ga, who remained expressionless, and the students below who looked ashen-faced.

"There are six more floors... no, five more floors. We'll soon find out who wins and who loses this bet."

Just as Cao Ying was speaking, Wei Qing had already passed the thirty-fifth level and was now entering it.

"Cao Ying, can we raise the bet? I bet Wei Qing will win!"

"I also bet that Wei Qing can get past the fortieth floor!"

"I bet Wei Qing can pass with 100 points."

"I'll bet two hundred... no, I'll bet five hundred!"

Seeing Wei Qing's terrifying speed in breaking through the pavilion, a group of students defected and abandoned their allies.

Unfortunately, Cao Ying wasn't stupid. He looked at the students who were clamoring to bet on Wei Qing to win, and a smug smile with a hint of mockery appeared on his lips. He said, "Sorry, the betting is closed. But it's not impossible to raise your bet now. I'll give you all the chance to bet on Wei Qing to lose."

You know to turn when your car hits a wall, you know to repent when you make a mistake and get sentenced, you know to shake your nose when it gets in your mouth—why didn't you do that sooner?

I just heard that I went to visit Consort Han but failed. They are all desperately trying to make Wei Qing fail to pass the fortieth floor, wishing they could make me lose everything!

I'm already being lenient by not seeking revenge later, and you still want to back out? Keep dreaming!

The Xiongnu barbarian students knew that Cao Ying would not give them a chance, so they began to stir up trouble one by one:

"Cao Ying, you really put on a good show; you fooled all the students."

"Wei Qing could have easily passed through the Hundred Battles Pavilion, but he deliberately lingered and delayed, just to deceive his fellow students. Such despicable behavior is a disgrace to the human race!"

"Hahaha, so the so-called geniuses of the human race are actually such shameless and despicable scoundrels!"

"Wei Qing, a disgrace to the human race!"

"Wei Qing is not worthy of being called a human."

"Heh, after all, he's a slave, born of a mother but raised without one. It's normal for him to be greedy for money..."

Before the last person could finish speaking, Cao Ying, standing on the high platform, roared angrily, and together with Bai Ao, the Lion Mountaineering Snow, pounced on the man.

Those around were clearly surprised that Cao Ying would make such a move in public. They were stunned at first, and then tried to stop him, but were sent flying hundreds of meters away by Bai Ao Lion. He lay on the ground with blood gushing from his mouth and countless broken ribs.

Everyone was shocked by what they saw, but it was too late to speak.

Cao Ying jumped down from the stands and punched the man who had insulted her by saying he was born of a mother but had no mother to raise him.

Cao Ying used almost all her strength in that punch.

Despite the opponent's hasty attempt to block, he was still sent flying.

However, Cao Ying had no intention of letting the matter rest. Before the man even landed, the White Lion had already arrived and grabbed at his chest with one claw.

At this critical moment, a figure appeared in front of the man and raised his arm to block the white lion's claw.

At the same time, Cao Ying also arrived, looking at the person blocking her way with murderous intent.

Myoga!

Want to be a good person?

I'll grant your wish!

boom!

Cao Ying punched Miao Ga in the chest again.

This time, Miao Ga neither dodged nor evaded, letting Cao Ying punch him in the chest.

The difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Miao Ga was considered a strong person even among those who had transcended the mundane, while Cao Ying had only recently broken through to the level of being able to defeat ten thousand people.

This punch clearly did not cause much damage to Muga.

However, after throwing the punch, Cao Ying immediately chose to stop.

"Dog, come back."

Cao Ying called out to Bai Ao Lion. Bai Ao Lion possessed extraordinary strength and could certainly hold off Miao Ga for a while, but that was no longer necessary.

He looked at the person hiding behind Muga, who was still a human, and sneered, "I'll give you three months to handle your affairs. If you don't want to implicate your family, you know what to choose."

After saying that, he glanced at Miao Ga, a smug smile on his lips, and said, "Senior Miao Ga, sometimes being a nice guy comes at a price."

At this moment, Muga also felt a sharp pain in his chest. He had been poisoned!?

Looking down at Cao Ying's right hand, which was throwing a punch, I saw a pair of gloves as thin as cicada wings, coated with poison.

Cao Ying did not draw his sword because he was certain that if he threw a punch, Miao Ga, knowing his status, would not dodge.

I just don't know if you, Miao Ga, can withstand my Cao Ying's punches, or the Yi family's poison!

Keep pretending in front of me!
