C290 Why Is the Difference so Huge
They came to the arena, and this competition is not open to the public. Therefore, only Chrysanthemum and her son, Qingtian... old patriarch. The four of them. The old man was very satisfied with what Qingtian had done. He knew that he had deliberately avoided everyone because he was afraid that Jing Tian would lose too badly. He was so skilled at Dao at such a young age, and he was also very powerful. His future was limitless!
Jing seemed to want to prove his strength in front of his father. He looked like he was eager to give it a try. The injuries from being slapped away by the chrysanthemum seemed to be normal without any hindrance. Originally, why would he hit his son so hard?
"Come on, brother. Let my father see if I'm lying or not." Jing was very excited. From the start, he used a secret technique, waiting for the sky to start.
Although he didn't want to dampen his confidence, Atlas had to win. And he had to display powerful strength to defeat Chrysanthemum in the end. Only then would he be able to carry out his plan smoothly. That was why he had to give it his all, not giving Jing any chance to show his strength. "Let's begin, brother." As he spoke, he did not take out his Taiyi Sword, but also made a stance with his bare hands.
Chrysanthemum, who was standing at the side, saw it clearly. Her son was best at using two fists. His opponent actually had the same habit as her: to carry a weapon behind his back. However, the opponent did not take out a weapon at this time, which meant that he did not use his full strength. Before he even started, Jing had already fallen into a disadvantageous position.
"I'm coming!" With a loud shout, Jing instantly appeared in front of Tian Qingtian. He knew that the person in front of him was very powerful, and it was very likely that he did not use his full strength when fighting with him. Therefore, Jing used all his strength from the beginning, planning to catch him off guard. He took down his opponent with one attack. Even if it didn't work, he had to at least make him lose a portion of his strength. This way, he would be able to gain the upper hand in future battles.
Seeing that his fist was about to touch Tian Qingtian's face, Jing, who was feeling proud, suddenly realized a problem. "Why didn't he dodge? Could it be... "Before he could finish his thoughts, he noticed that Qingtian had revealed a strange smile.
"Bang, bang!" First, there was a heavy strike, then there was the sound of a heavy object hitting a wall. Qingtian was still standing where he was, and at this moment, Jing had already fainted in the large hole he had created.
"I'm sorry, Senior Ju. His attack is too fierce. I can only do that. However, he only fainted temporarily. There was no danger to his life. With Jing's strength, he'll wake up soon." Although Atlas sent Jing flying with a single blow, he still showed mercy. He didn't want to have a grudge with this old man. If he killed his son here, then he would be in trouble.
Chrysanthemum stood there, unable to calm down for a long time. Although Atlas's move was very fast, he could clearly see that this young man didn't seem to use any secret technique. He simply waved his right hand. His son was sent flying. "They are both young people, but why is the difference between them so great?" Looking at his unconscious son, Chrysanthemum couldn't help but blurt out.
Jing's move just now was full of force, but this young man didn't dodge. Not even a defensive move. This was obviously because he had sufficient confidence and accuracy, and he also had a clear understanding of his son's strength. That was why the scene just now had happened. At this moment, he could no longer sit still. His hands could not help but tremble. It was not fear, nor was it anger. Rather, it was excitement. This was the first time he had encountered such a powerful opponent.
"Lord Patriarch, it seems that you are indeed as powerful as the legends say. I wonder if you are interested in sparring with me!" The old man could not suppress his excitement and blurted out.
"We're in a trap!" As he thought about this, Atlas gave old patriarch a look. The smart him understood what Qingtian meant. Therefore, he said to Chrysanthemum, who was beside him, "Senior, Ashlow isn't even twenty years old yet. Your request... Chrysanthemum was speechless."
"Uh, this..." After hearing his words, Chrysanthemum felt a little embarrassed. After all, she had been famous for many years, and although the other party was powerful, he was just a child. If she were to fight him like this, it would inevitably cause her to lose her status. Just like bullying a child, he suddenly felt embarrassed. It turned red. Luckily, no one could tell that his face had turned black.
"It doesn't matter! Since Senior is interested, why don't we have a contest? I think it's been a long time since you made a move. As a junior, being able to fight with someone like you is also an honor." With a wave of his hand, Qingtian revealed a fox-like smile. "The old man was tricked!"
"Haha, I knew you were a straightforward person, little brother. Let's do it!" As he spoke, he walked towards Qingtian.
"Of course I can compete with you. There is no wall in this world that can't be blocked. However, if this matter were to spread, it wouldn't be pleasant to hear. Furthermore, you are so powerful, you will definitely not let me go... So let's have a bet, otherwise it won't be fun." Now that the main show was about to begin, Qingtian was about to say his goal.
"Well, that's not a problem. Even if I challenge you, you can do whatever you want after the competition!" The old man was rather straightforward. A simple-minded fellow would naturally not be able to see through Qingtian's plot.
"Of course not. My idea is very fair. You are a senior, so it naturally doesn't matter if I lose. But if I win, I hope you can promise me one thing." Tian Qingtian's expression was that of a weakling.
"No problem, not to mention one, even if it's a hundred, I'll promise you. Say it! " The old man seemed very confident, as if he would never lose.
"Of course, but we have to agree on this beforehand. You are a senior, and you must not go back on your word." Tian Qingtian didn't cut off the old man's path of retreat for the sake of his future plans. If he succeeded, it would save him a lot of trouble.
"Don't be so long-winded. If you have anything to say, say it quickly. I promise you! " Chrysanthemum was a little impatient. Why was the person in front of her so long-winded!
Seeing that the fire had run out, Qingtian finally stated his conditions. "If I win, you are not allowed to stop me from doing anything in the future, no matter what I do. Because what I am going to do next will have a huge impact on the entire continent. So, I hope you can keep silent. Of course, I won't harm your interests. If you don't agree, I won't fight back even if you beat me to death." He immediately changed his expression and became extremely serious.
Hearing his words, Chrysanthemum suddenly realized that there was a plot behind it. Although this person was honest, it didn't mean that he was a fool. On the contrary, being able to stand tall on this continent where the feudal vassals fought for so many years, he naturally had his own ways. He could naturally see this trick of Atlas clearly, but the temptation in front of him was too great. It had been many years since he had a match. From the moment Tian Qingtian came down, this fellow's strength was definitely not inferior to his. And of course, he knew how powerful old patriarch was, although he wasn't as powerful as him. But to be so respectful to this young man, he must have something terrible about himself.
It wasn't easy to encounter such an opponent. If he didn't have a match with him... This ability might be brought into a coffin. Besides, he didn't necessarily lose, so there was no harm in agreeing to him. Furthermore, this person had also said that he would not harm his own interests in the future. He just wanted him to see what was happening and not interfere. He just had to turn a blind eye to it.
After making a decision for a long time, Chrysanthemum finally made up her mind. "Alright, I promise you. I hope you remember your promise, but I really want to see if you can get this promise from me! "
Seeing that his opponent had finally agreed, Qingtian felt at ease. "That's good. This way, I will have one less powerful opponent in my future journey. When the time comes, I'll take care of the entire continent and see what else you can do. When you're alone, you won't be as magnanimous as you are today. "
He gave old patriarch a look, signaling him to step back a little. The big spear that this old man was carrying was very frightening. He was sure that... The battle would be very intense later. He wanted to defeat this old man before he had any confidence in defeating him. However, he had a magic weapon. There were some things that he had never seen before. If he really couldn't do it, he would release the Devil Beast! No matter what, he had to win this battle!
"Alright, as far as you're concerned, I'll let you know, how can the gap between Jing and me be so great!"
