Shi Ling crossed his arms in front of his chest and calmly watched Xu Hao lead a group of people over. Among these people, Xu Hao's fat body was almost at Shi Ling's level when he arrived in front of him. He saw Shi Ling's cold face and said,

"Fatty Xu, I suggest that you better take care of your henchman and stop letting him bite people. Otherwise, next time, you might encounter someone as easy to talk to as me and spare his life."

One of his hands even touched the swollen part of his face, and when Xu Hao heard Shi Ling call him by that name, it immediately made him unhappy. Everyone knew he was fat and he knew it, but no one was allowed to call him fat!

Immediately, Xu Hao looked at Shi Ling coldly and said, "Shi Ling, do you really think you are something? You still dare to clamor in front of me? "

Shi Ling put his hands on his waist and said, "Then what do you count as?"

When Xu Hao heard this, he immediately laughed. Not only him, even those henchmen around him also laughed and pointed at Shi Ling as if they were looking at a country bumpkin. At this time, Xu Hao said to the people behind him, "Brothers, tell this stupid dog my identity."

The green-gowned youth said: "Our Brother Xu has now officially become a servant of the Zhang Family of the Four Great Clans, not only has he received attention from the Zhang Family, he has also been bestowed a first class martial skill, the Scorching Sun Fist, and his position in the sect has been directly promoted to a new disciple!"

Xu Hao's face was filled with pride as he spoke, and even the surrounding onlookers were filled with envy. It was clear that they also knew the limitless potential of a retainer with the ability to become a Zhang Family.

However, at this moment, Shi Ling was looking at Xu Hao as if he was looking at a retard. After Xu Hao saw the expression in Shi Ling's eyes, his smile suddenly stopped because Shi Ling did not reveal the surprise and fear that he expected.

At this time, Shi Ling said: "Since you're so powerful, then I wonder if you dare to compete with me in Martial Arena!"

When Xu Hao heard this, the corner of his mouth raised slightly. He raised his hand to stop the laughter of the lackeys behind him. "Are you sure?"

Shi Ling nodded in agreement. Xu Hao said calmly, "What if you lose?"

Shi Ling took out a storage card and said, "The 900 gold coins are yours!"

When Xu Hao saw the number on the storage card, which just so happened to be nine hundred, his heart skipped a beat. Although he had already become a servant of Zhang Family, his income had not changed, ten gold coins a month, if he could get nine hundred gold coins this time, it would be equivalent to receiving ten years of salary in one breath, how could he not be moved?

Xu Hao immediately laughed loudly and said, "Alright, it's a deal."

As he said that, he reached out a hand to signal for Shi Ling to clap with him. Shi Ling put the card behind him and said: "What if you lose?"

He asked himself in his heart, he did not think that he would lose, even if not, it was still better than Shi Ling, but before he could say anything, Shi Ling continued to speak: "If you lose, you have to pay respect to me and call me Brother Ling!" How about it? Isn't that a bit too much? "

He was now a servant of the Zhang Family, so he had to give a salute to Shi Ling. Then, what would other people think of him, but in the end, he saw Shi Ling take out the 900 gold storage card and wave it in front of him. Looking at the 900 gold on it, Xu Hao said that he was not moved by it, so he immediately said: "Alright, I'll take this bet!"

Xu Hao also followed him at this time, his face revealing an evil smile. Since he was bestowed with a level 1 martial arts from the Zhang Family, he had always wanted to find a chance to beat Shi Ling up, but he had never had a chance. Now, Shi Ling actually took the initiative to challenge him, wasn't this intentionally trying to punch him?

However, just as they left, a beautiful figure walked out from behind a cargo rack not far away. It was Yun Zhiqian. Her beautiful eyes looked at the direction Shi Ling had left in and she gently bit her lower lip before following him out.

At this moment, Xu Hao was walking on the road with Shi Ling and was already thinking about how to trample Shi Ling under his feet and how to take the 900 gold coins out for fun.

When a group of people arrived at the Martial Arena, they casually found a ring and stood on it. The Martial Arena s were actually formed by many different sized arenas, and the disciples in the sect would choose the arenas according to their strength levels. Under normal circumstances, the weaker they were, the smaller the arenas they could use, and the stronger they were, the bigger the arenas would be.

For example, the inner sect's Heavenly Rankings was a competition where several gigantic arenas were floating in the air. Their area was as big as a plaza, and just by looking at them, one could feel a sense of oppression.

As long as you don't beat the opponent to death, it's not a big deal. You can use all sorts of methods here, as long as you have it, it's fine to use both weapons and poison, and even if your opponent is crippled by you in the end, it's not considered a violation of the rules of the sect.

Yun Zhiqian, who was at the back of the crowd, was quietly observing Shi Ling and Shi Ling's opponent with a worried expression on her face. The maids behind Yun Zhiqian looked at each other in dismay, wondering what was going on with their young lady today. Why was he so concerned about a man?

With the sound of a melodious ancient bell, the competition officially began. Xu Hao, who was currently on the stage, immediately let out a loud roar, and suddenly released all of his aura. He stomped hard on the ground with one foot, immediately shattering the ground, and at the same time, a scorching heat appeared around his body.

Everyone was stunned, especially those who followed Xu Hao. They never thought that Xu Hao would use his first rank Martial Skill, Fierce Sun Fist, as soon as he came up. From the looks of it, he did not intend to give Shi Ling any chance to fight back.

She could tell that Shi Ling's cultivation level was only body refining second level, the same level as Xu Hao. However, Xu Hao had a Level 1 Martial Arts, but Shi Ling didn't. This was equivalent to two ordinary people fighting.

He heard Xu Hao yell, "Bastard, go to hell!"

At this time, Shi Ling was still quietly standing there, not moving at all. At this moment, everyone's eyes were wide open, and some of them even turned their heads back, not daring to look at the bloody scene that might happen later on. Even Yun Zhiqian's heart had lifted at this moment.

However, when Xu Hao's fist landed on Shi Ling's chest, a light bang was heard. A strong wind swept up, stirring up the dust on the ground, causing the people around them to be unable to resist taking a few steps back, staring blankly at the scene in front of them.

After that, everyone was stupefied. Xu Hao's mouth couldn't help but open wide. Even Yun Zhiqian, who was in the distance, couldn't help but cover her red lips with her hand.

He landed a punch on Xu Hao's chest, but Shi Ling did not retreat even half a step. He did not even show any expression on his face, it was hard to imagine that Shi Ling only used his physical body to withstand Xu Hao's punch. One could only imagine how terrifying the strength of Shi Ling's physical body was.

At that moment, Xu Hao's smug expression from before completely disappeared. What replaced it was fear. A fear that came from the bottom of his heart. Before even Shi Ling acted, he already wanted to admit defeat.

At this moment, the corner of Shi Ling's mouth slightly raised. He grabbed Xu Hao's wrist and twisted forcefully. The next moment, he heard a light cracking sound. Immediately, Xu Hao let out a scream that was like a pig being slaughtered.

But things weren't over yet. Shi Ling lifted Xu Hao's fat body up and then threw it down. At the same time, Shi Ling's knee moved forward and at the same time Xu Hao fell, it instantly hit Xu Hao's stomach.

Dong, Xu Hao suddenly felt as if his internal organs were about to be spit out, his eyes were wide open. After getting hit by Shi Ling, he immediately spun around and flew to the side, then heavily smashed onto the ground without any reaction, just like a dead dog.

Everyone in the arena was dumbfounded. Was this still the Shi Ling whom they had shouted at to and fro? At that moment, Shi Ling walked up to Xu Hao, squatted down, and whispered in his ear, "Today's humiliation will be repaid a hundredfold!"

His body couldn't help but to tremble as he recalled the time when he recklessly beat and scolded Shi Ling as if he was venting his anger, and also what Shi Ling said to him at that time, "Today's humiliation will be returned a hundred times over."

At this moment, Xu Hao was regretting his decision to provoke Shi Ling. He really regretted the decision to provoke Shi Ling before, and all he saw was Shi Ling standing up and pressing Xu Hao's face to the ground with one foot on his head. He wanted to struggle, but he couldn't get rid of Shi Ling's foot.

The sharp screams made the surrounding people feel scared, they looked at Shi Ling as if he was looking at a monster. At this time, Shi Ling's gaze looked at them, causing them to step back, while some of them even felt their legs go soft.

Shi Ling moved his feet away from Xu Hao's head and walked down the stage. The current Xu Hao had left a deep shadow in his heart that he couldn't get rid of, and his face was probably already ruined. Unless he used high level herbs or elixirs, it would be difficult to recover.

When the audience saw Shi Ling walk down, they all subconsciously backed off. Then, they heard Shi Ling calmly spit out a word, "Let's go!"

As he said that, he walked out of the Martial Arena. The surrounding people looked at each other, thinking that once he left the Martial Arena, Shi Ling would not be able to touch them, so he didn't need to be afraid of him.

As for Xu Hao, who was lying on the stage like a dead dog, he was completely ignored. It wasn't until the person in charge of Martial Arena arrived that he was brought down from the stage and sent out.

Yun Zhiqian, who was standing on the other side, had a complicated expression on her face when she saw Shi Ling leaving. She didn't know what kind of feeling she was experiencing. She lowered her head and walked away in the other direction.

On the other side, Shi Ling was walking at the front and behind him were all the servants of Department A, none of them daring to speak and just silently followed behind Shi Ling. On the other side, Shi Ling was walking at the front and behind him were all the servants of Department A, all of them not daring to speak and quietly followed behind Shi Ling. At that time, even if the sect punished Shi Ling, it would only be a small punishment.

At this time, Shi Ling led them outside of his room, and said to them, "Bring out all the useless things inside, then clean up the room for me. After I check it later, if I see anything that isn't cleaned properly …"

The scene of Xu Hao being beaten up by Shi Ling was still vivid in everyone's mind. Now, they naturally did not dare to touch Shi Ling's brows anymore. Immediately, they all lifted up their sleeves and walked into the sundry room.

Shi Ling on the other hand, sat on the side, organized the things he bought today, spent more than 1000 gold coins, but received another 5000 gold coins. Shi Ling on the other hand, Shi Ling sat on the side, organized the things he bought today, spent more than 1000 gold coins, but received another 5000 gold coins.

Shi Ling calculated the expenditure while discussing with Bai Xiaosheng how to use these cultivation resources.

Time passed by quickly. After only about two hours, all the servants of the A Division had come out. They were all covered in dust and stood in a row in front of Shi Ling. They said, "Brother Ling, everything has been tidied up."

After Shi Ling heard this, he nodded his head and put everything back into the Heart Ring. Then, he walked towards his own room.

After that, Shi Ling saw that most of the debris in the room had been cleaned up, revealing the original appearance of the room.

The furnishings in the room were very simple: a table, a few stools, a few cabinets, and Shi Ling's straw bed. The whole room suddenly gave off a clean and tidy feeling, no longer having the scene of the rodents and cockroaches crawling around.

Shi Ling casually wiped the table. After he found that it was cleaned quite cleanly, he nodded and said, "Not bad, it's pretty clean."

The group of people immediately bowed in excitement. Thinking that since Shi Ling was satisfied, he probably wouldn't make things difficult for them. At this moment, Shi Ling said: "In the future, I will clean up the sect …"

Upon hearing this, a bunch of people immediately interjected, "In the future, we'll help Brother Ling clean up."

At this moment, Shi Ling nodded with a smile and said, "Alright, each of you can go out and do 500 pushups."

Saying that, Shi Ling waved his hand at them. Hearing this, the crowd couldn't help but let out a cry. They had been busy for more than two hours. If they still had to do five hundred push-ups, would they still live? However, they didn't dare to disobey Shi Ling's words. They could only silently lower their heads and walk out.

Suddenly, a light flashed on Shi Ling's finger. Bai Xiaosheng flew out and said to Shi Ling, "Are you intentionally trying to make life difficult for them?"

Shi Ling laughed and said, "At that time, they used Fatty Xu to show off their strength in front of me and pointed fingers at me. How come they didn't think that I would make them do 500 push-ups on this day, that's already very forgiving of them."

When Bai Xiaosheng heard about this, he couldn't help but pout his lips and think that Shi Ling could also do it, how could he hold a grudge?
