C20 Herba Thunbergii

"Cough cough, Brother Huang, I've let you down." Zhang Tian Shi, who had spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said.

"You actually!?" You actually used your body to forcefully endure this Sword Qi, are you not afraid of death?! " Huang Guangsheng said to Zhang Tian Shi who was still in the arena.

After using his ultimate move, Huang Guangsheng originally wanted to use this sword qi to force Zhang Tianzhi out of the arena, but he saw with his own eyes that when Zhang Tianyi retreated to the edge of the arena, he directly stabbed the broken sword into the ground.

Soon after, Zhang Tian Shi used the broken sword and the resistance on the ground to stop her from retreating any further. Because of that, she had to use her body to resist the sword qi.

"This is crazy!" This is crazy! "

"How exciting!"

"It really is the 'Dark Horse' hidden in the kitchen!"

"Wah!" Both of them are so handsome! "

"..."

Everyone was shocked by Zhang Tian Shi's actions, but looking at the current situation, they felt that if Huang Guangsheng were to release another sword qi, then that Zhang Tian Shi would definitely lose.

"Shijie Fang, is Big Brother Zhang okay?" Yin Chenglan, who was extremely worried about Zhang Tianyi, asked Fang Weixue.

"Don't worry. Junior Zhang won't fall that easily." Fang Weixue replied.

Ever since Fang Weixue had seen Zhang Tian Shi in the Peace Town and had a deep impression of her, she had always felt that he was not a simple person.

"Zhang..." Junior Zhang, are you alright? Can we continue the duel? " The Mount Shu disciples, who were responsible for maintaining the stage and witnessing the competition from a close distance, asked Zhang Tianzhi.

"I'm fine, thank you senior brother for your concern, I can still continue to compete." After Zhang Tianzhi pulled the broken sword out of the sword hole on the ground, he slowly walked towards Huang Guangsheng, who had been standing motionlessly ever since he had unleashed his sword Qis.

Facing Zhang Tian Shi's approach, Huang Guangsheng's expression became more and more unsightly.

When Zhang Tian Shi was about to get close to Huang Guangsheng, Huang Guangsheng's expression became conflicted and he unwillingly said something that caused everyone to be shocked and disappointed, "I …." "I concede."

"What's going on!?" Huang Guangsheng actually admitted defeat? "

"Could it be that he was scared silly by Zhang Tian Shi's previous actions?"

"What's going on?"

"Another strike!"

"I heard that during the entrance exam, Zhang Tianzhi not only won against Chen Hui, but also won against Huang Guangsheng. He's truly extraordinary!"

"..."

Shangguan Li hurriedly asked Chen Hui, who was beside him, "Ah, Brother Chen!? What was going on? Why did Huang Guangsheng give birth to him … Why did he admit defeat? Is there anyone who would be so stupid? "

"Brother Shangguan, I …" I don't know! "This …" Chen Hui replied with the same confused expression as everyone else.

Then, Zhang Tian Shi walked over to Huang Guangsheng's side and whispered in his ear, "Brother Huang, isn't it very heavy for you to forcefully use the sword qi while you're not even at the Sword Guard's side? And you actually managed to stand here pretending to be calm after using your sword qi. You almost tricked me. "

"You …" Huang Guangsheng looked at Zhang Tianyi leaving the stage step by step after he finished his sentence, which left him with a lot of confusion, anger, and frustration. However, the most common was still shock.

After Huang Guangsheng used all his strength to forcefully use his sword qi, his entire body became powerless from the backlash. As a result, in order to not let others see that he had lost his ability to fight, he could barely stand on the spot, waiting for Zhang Tianyi to be forced out of the arena by the sword qi to gain victory.

But in the end, what Huang Guangsheng never expected was that not only did Zhang Tianyi not allow him to leave the stage as he wished, he even saw through the 'side effects' of using his ultimate move.

"Tian Shi!" You didn't... Things... "Let's go …" When Ren Fan saw that the competition was over, he hastily ran over to Zhang Tian Shi, but before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Yin Chenglan, who was running over from the side, "Brother Zhang, are you alright? I just saw you vomiting blood! "

"I'm fine, cough, I'm fine …" Zhang Tian Shi replied as she coughed and patted her chest.

Following which, Fang Weixue also walked over to Zhang Tian Shi and asked, "Junior Brother Zhang, congratulations on winning this round. Are you alright?"

"Fang..." Elder Sister Fang, ah, I'm fine, I … Cough cough … "It's fine." Zhang Tian Shi unexpectedly heard Fang Weixue walk over to take care of her, so she quickly shifted all of her attention to Fang Weixue.

"It's good that you're fine. But, you should rest and recuperate from the internal injuries caused by the sword qi. Don't overwork yourself." Fang Weixue said.

"If there's nothing else, why are you coughing all the time? "Let's go, I'll bring you to find Uncle Yao." The slightly jealous Yin Chenglan saw that when Fang Weixue appeared, Zhang Tian Shi threw herself to the side and 'ignored' her. She then unwillingly said those words as she pulled Zhang Tian Shi and walked up the steps of the Shu Mountain Range.

"Sigh!" "I'm fine, ahem, Fang …" Towards his current situation, Zhang Tian Shi temporarily did not want Fang Weixue to see her like this. Hence, she decided to rely on Yin Chenglan's actions to leave.

After that, Fang Weixue turned to any of the Fan students who had been staring at Zhang Tianyi and Yin Chenglan and asked, "Junior brother, junior brother?" What's the matter with you? "

"Ah?" Shijie Fang, I … "I'm fine." Any one who was called for a while finally came to his senses and replied.

"After the two of them left, I saw you staring at them in a daze. Is something the matter?" Fang Weixue asked again.

"No …." "If there's nothing else, then I'll be taking my leave, Shijie Fang." The moment when Yin Chenglan brought Zhang Tianyi away, any man felt an indescribable feeling of sadness. At the same time, he was also keenly aware that this sadness would frequently still happen to him in the future.

"Eh? Is there something wrong? " After Fang Weixue left, she thought of the last sentence that she had said and asked herself.

"… …"

"Is Uncle Yao in?" After walking up a flight of stone steps, Zhang Tianyi was brought by Yin Chenglan to the Alchemy Lodge in Mount Shu.

"What's wrong with that little girl?" An old uncle with a friendly smile walked out and asked Yin Chenglan as soon as he heard him shout.

"I'm fine, my friend was just injured by the sword qi. Uncle Yao, quickly help me check if my injuries are serious." Yin Chenglan pulled Zhang Tianyi in front of Uncle Yao and said.

"Hello, Senior. Junior is Mount Shu's new disciple, Zhang Tianzhi." Zhang Tianzhi cupped his fist and said to Uncle Yao.

"Brother Zhang, let me introduce Uncle Yao to you first. Uncle Yao was an old friend of my father before I was born. Twenty years ago, Uncle Yao came to Mount Shu to practice alchemy, so …" Uncle Yao? Uncle Yao? What's wrong? Big Brother Zhang, are you severely injured? " During Yin Chenglan's introduction of Uncle Yao to Zhang Tianxin, she turned around and discovered that Uncle Yao was staring at her. Furthermore, he had a surprised expression on his face.

"Ah?" "No problem, no problem, I just saw that this little brother looks a little familiar." On the surface, Uncle Yao seemed to have calmed down as he replied. However, in his heart, he thought that this Tian Shi was actually very similar to the person from twenty-three years ago.

"Since that's the case, then quickly help Big Brother Zhang take a look." Yin Chenglan said anxiously.

"Alright, little brother, you give me your hand first. I'll help you take a look at your pulse." Uncle Yao said to Zhang Tianxing.

"Alright." After Zhang Tianzhi finished speaking, he extended his hand out.

After a while, Yin Chenglan impatiently asked, "How is Uncle Yao?"

"Your friend's body is very strong. It's not a big deal. I'll get him some medicine to treat his internal injuries." Yao Bo said as he walked towards the medicine store.

"Thank you, senior." Zhang Tian Shi clasped her hands and said.

"Brother Zhang, you don't have to be so polite with Uncle Yao. You can just call him Uncle Yao in the future just like me. If there's anything you need help with in the future, you can always find Uncle Yao for help." Yin Chenglan said without any trace of politeness.

Just as Yin Chenglan finished speaking, a voice came from outside the door, "Is Brother Yao in?"

When Zhang Tian Shi heard the familiar voice, she turned around to look and guessed that it was Elder Wang Shoufeng, whom she had seen in the Peace Town.

"Elder Wang." Upon seeing Elder Wang Shoufeng enter, Zhang Tian Shi and Yin Chenglan cupped their fists and greeted him.

"Elder Wang has come." Hearing these words, Uncle Yao walked out and said.

Uncle Yao then gave the pill to Yin Chenglan and said, "Little girl, please take this little brother away first. Elder Wang and I have something to discuss."

"Alright Uncle Yao, then we'll be leaving first." Yin Chenglan, who had received the pill, pulled Zhang Tianyi away with a smile.

Then, after Zhang Tian Shi and Yin Chenglan left the alchemy room, Wang Shoufeng asked Uncle Yao, "Brother Yao, did you also sense that youth's presence?"

"En, this youth called Zhang Tianzhi is not ordinary. Not only is his blood and muscles stronger than ordinary people, his primordial spirit is also strange. It seems to be hiding a mysterious power." When Uncle Yao was taking Zhang Tianxing's pulse, he had already found out everything.

"Haha, then what does Brother Yao think about this youth's future development?" Wang Shoufeng asked again after nodding and smiling.

Uncle Yao thought for a while before his expression turned serious. He replied seriously, "If we carefully cultivate them, they will definitely become the elite of Mount Shu and even the human race."

"Mm, then what happened to the matter that Brother Yao asked of you before?" Wang Shoufeng felt that Uncle Yao's words weren't the only one that didn't fully express what Zhang Tianyi was thinking. However, he didn't go into detail about the reason, and instead asked another question.

"I already have an idea." Yao Lao replied as he looked at the cauldron.

"… …"

"Big Brother Zhang, you have to remember to take this pill on time. Hurry up and treat your internal injuries. Also, be careful not to get hurt again in the upcoming tests." After Yin Chenglan pulled Zhang Tianyi to the edge of the Shu Sword Lake, he gave the medicine to Zhang Tianyi and said.

"Thank you, Miss Yin. If there is nothing else, I will leave first. I still have some firewood to split in the kitchen." Zhang Tianzhi cupped his fist at Yin Chenglan and left.

"Sigh!" "This …" Looking at Zhang Tian Shi's leaving figure, Yin Chenglan wanted to say something but hesitated.

Yin Chenglan had originally thought that it would be great to have a chance to bring Zhang Tianyi to the Sword Lake to chat, and to look at the serene scenery of the lake and the blue sky that reflected off the lake's surface. At the same time, she had also heard the happy chirping of birds and the rustling of the green leaves as the wind blew past the branches.

Soon after, Zhang Tianxin returned to the kitchen. She was asked by any Fan who had been guarding the entrance to the kitchen: "Tianshi, be honest. Where did you and Junior Yin go?"

"Nothing, I was brought to the alchemy lab by her to get some pills, then I came back first." Zhang Tianzhi replied.

"Really?" Any mortal's face was instantly filled with doubt.

"Don't worry, I know you like her, so you still don't believe me?" Zhang Tian Shi patted any of his shoulders as she retorted.

You actually won against Huang Guangsheng, but this is only the first round, so from tomorrow onwards, you will still have to participate in the next tests. Therefore, you should go and take a good rest in the kitchen first. Any one of them answered.

"Hur hur, I just realized that my performance during today's test was pretty good! "Then I must persevere until the very end so that you can have a whole new level of respect for me!" Zhang Tianzhi smiled and then returned to his room.

After returning to her room, Zhang Tian Shi consumed the pill given to her by Yao Bo to treat her internal injuries. Her entire body felt much better. She then lay down on her bed and began to recall the competition she had with Huang Guangsheng.

Zhang Tian Shi recalled that she had originally planned to keep defending and delaying the match with Huang Guangsheng. After attracting everyone's attention, she would win the match and let them see that she was also able to learn quite a few skills while training in the kitchen. Not to mention, she had arranged for Chen Hui to fight with Huang Guangsheng at the back of the kitchen.

Zhang Tianzhi recalled that even though she was almost defeated by Huang Guangsheng's ultimate move, she still managed to win in the end.

Zhang Tianxing recalled Huang Guangsheng watching him get suppressed by the sword qi and not taking the opportunity to make another strike. Instead, he just stood there motionlessly. It was only then that he realized he was completely exhausted and was unable to move.

For the next six days, she did not compete with Yin Chenglan, so Zhang Tianyi, who continued to participate in the exam, remained invincible. After all, even Huang Guangsheng, who was recognized as the second strongest student in the exam, had lost, so no one other than Yin Chenglan had been able to beat him.

However, Zhang Tian Shi would always let her opponent display her full strength during the competition. She wouldn't be like the other strong people who thought of winning the competition as soon as possible, avoiding wasting time or exposing their hidden strength, and eliminated the opponent in two or three tries.

The reason why Zhang Tian Shi wanted to do this was because he knew that these new disciples that were eliminated in two or three tries would not be able to see the results of his cultivation and its shortcomings in this year without fully exerting their strength.
