Chapter 1672: White-clothed Young Master

Zhao Hai sat in place with closed eyes, no longer concerning himself with the surroundings. On the other hand, the cultivators around him looked at him differently.

Zhao Hai was very strange to them. Only a few of them knew of his face. However, they knew who Zhao Hai was fighting against. Moreover, they were very familiar with his face.

This white-clothed young master was Ye Tiancheng! Ye Tiancheng was quite famous among the Outer Disciples. He was a well-known genius. By the age of eighteen, he already formed his Nascent Soul. Naturally, this Nascent Soul was the classification of the lower realms. Now, at 24 years old, he was at the Spirit Refining Stage and could attack the Foundation Establishment. As long as he builds his foundation, he would become an Inner Disciple. The gang has been paying attention to him for a long time. They even gave him a special slot in the Inner Sect. For such a genius, the sect wouldn’t be stingy with its benefits.

However, Ye Tiancheng was very proud. Although the sect allowed him a special promotion, he wanted to be promoted using his own effort. He wanted to enter the Inner Sect in an open manner. Naturally, he didn’t express this thinking to the others. He just showed it using his actions.

Because of this, Ye Tiancheng participated in the competition and prepared well. But he didn’t expect to meet Zhao Hai. Because of this, he was eliminated in his first battle.

Nobody expected this to happen. Because of this, the way the surrounding cultivators looked at Zhao Hai wasn’t quite right. An unknown fellow actually defeated a well-known genius. Moreover, he made it look easy.

Zhao Hai didn’t care about what these people thought. He was planning to lose in the next few days in his third battle. Naturally, he would no longer fight this day. With how many Outer Disciples there were, it was impossible to finish the first round on the first day.

Originally, Zhao Hai planned to leave after the first battle. But he also knew that he couldn’t just leave after his fight. Therefore, he could only stay and study the formations with Cai’er and the others.

The competition continued and the people around Zhao Hai shifted their attention back to the platform.

The day quickly ended and the next day arrived. Zhao Hai was still in his spot studying formations. Since he won his first battle, he was naturally in the second round.

As Zhao Hai was sitting down with closed eyes, he suddenly felt a hostile gaze directed at him. Zhao Hai’s spiritual force found the owner of the gaze and he discovered that it was his opponent Ye Tiancheng.

When he defeated Ye Tiancheng the day before, Zhao Hai was still unaware of his name. But as he discussed with the others, Zhao Hai became aware, he also knew what Ye Tiancheng was like.

To be honest, Zhao Hai didn’t expect that the first person he defeated would be a celebrity. He somewhat regretted what he did. If he knew that Ye Tiancheng would be fighting him, then he would have acted more low-key.

However, there was no cure for regret. Zhao Hai can only walk forward. As long as he met someone with similar strength as Ye Tiancheng, he would withdraw.

As for Ye Tiancheng’s hostility, Zhao Hai didn’t care. Ye Tiancheng wasn’t someone worth paying attention to.

At this moment, Zhao Hai felt someone walking towards him. And looking at the person’s path, even if he didn’t come looking for him, he would still pass by Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai couldn’t help but check this person out.

The man’s body was huge at a full two meters tall. He had bulging muscles and skin tough as black iron. He had a full beard and looked exactly like a body cultivator.

Zhao Hai didn’t care about the person since he didn’t know him personally. Zhao Hai didn’t move and just sat in place. He wanted to see what the man was trying to do.

The man got closer and closer before he arrived beside Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai was still in place and didn’t move. Then the man stopped and then sat beside Zhao Hai.

Zhao Hai still didn’t move, but he was curious about the man’s intentions. This was because he couldn’t feel any sense of hostility on the man’s body.

At this time, the man opened his mouth and said, “Brother, let’s get to know each other.”

Zhao Hai opened his eyes and looked at the man. Then he knitted his brows. Although the man looked like a body cultivator, Zhao Hai didn’t know why, but he felt that something wasn’t right.

He looked at the man and discovered a happy glint in his eyes. He looked proud, as though his little scheme had worked.

These kinds of eyes wouldn’t appear on strangers, only between friends. ZHao Hai had almost no friends in the Black Tiger Gang. The only person that came to mind was Han Buli.

Zhao Hai’s eyes lit up when he thought of Han Buli’s ability to change appearance and temperament. He smiled faintly as he whispered, “Brother Han, you’re an Inner Disciple. Why are you here?”

As soon as the man heard Zhao Hai, he was startled. He looked at Zhao Hai in disbelief, then after some time he said, “How did you find out? Even the Elders couldn’t see through me.”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, “Who made you so proud. I see you feeling good about yourself. Let’s stop wasting time here. Let’s go to my place to have a drink.”

Han Buli laughed and said, “Alright, let’s go. There’s nothing interesting here.” After he said that, the two stood up and left. Not a lot of people noticed the two leaving. But when Ye Tiancheng saw Zhao Hai leave, he also stood up and followed them.

Zhao Hai also noticed Ye Tiancheng’s movement, but he didn’t care. When the two exited the mountain, they immediately flew out and went to the Handyman Hall.

Elder Hu was in the Handyman Hall. Seeing Zhao Hai come with a guest, Elder Hu couldn’t help but stare. He looked at Zhao Hai and said ,”Little Hai, this is?”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “This is an expert I met on Mount Xingtai. We had a good time chatting, so I brought him back to drink. Elder, you’re busy, there’s no need to worry about me.” He didn’t say that he knew Han Buli before. That would only make Elder Hu suspicious. Elder Hu was Zhang Feng’s person. If Elder Hu knew about Han Buli, he would tell Zhang Feng, and it might cause unnecessary conflict.

Elder Hu didn’t say anything and just nodded. Zhao Hai brought Han Buli to the transmission formation to the Ignored Valley. There were several Serving disciples in the Ignored Valley. When Zhao Hai returned, they immediately ran over and gave him a salute. Zhao Hai waved his hand and said, “Alright, you all go back. Come back here tomorrow.” When the Serving Disciples heard this, they quickly left and used the transmission formation.

Zhao Hai looked at the transmission formation and waved his hand to release Undead. Then the Undead took the trash from the transmission formation. Then he led Han Buli to his cave residence.

Han Buli also withdrew his technique and restored his own face. Zhao Hai looked at Han Buli and couldn’t help but sigh as he said, “Brother Han, I must say. Your technique is really good. If I didn’t see your eyes back on Mount Xingtai, I wouldn’t have figured out that it was you.”

Han Buli laughed and said, “Brother, I rely on this technique to eat. If I don’t do well, then I won’t live. Alright, let’s not talk about this, where’s the food?”

Zhao Hai smiled faintly as he took out two bottles of liquor. Then he took out some cloud vegetables. As the two ate and drank, Zhao Hai discovered Ye Tiancheng asking Elder Hu about him. Elder Hu told him that Zhao Hai offended Zhang Feng so he was sent to guard the Ignored Valley.

Hearing Elder Hu, Ye Tiancheng nodded. Nobody knew what he was thinking, but Zhao Hai didn’t care. Zhao Hai couldn’t count how many people like Ye Tiancheng he killed. He simply didn’t care about these kinds of people.

Elder Hu reported the matter to Zhang Feng. Not long after the report, Zhang Hao came to ask Elder Hu about the situation. However, Zhang Hao didn’t go to Zhao Hai since there was someone else there.

After Zhao Hai and Han Buli drank their liquor, Zhao Hai said, “Brother Han, whose identity are you using this time? I can’t just tell people that you’re Han Buli, right? Do you have a name?”

Han Buli smiled and said, “Of course I have a name. This current identity is called Ban Li. I’m an Outer Sect Disciple. If anyone asks, just tell them this name.”

Zhao Hai nodded, then he said, “Ban Li? Which hall do you belong to? After all, there are so many people with the same name in the Outer Sect.”

Han Buli looked at Zhao Hai and said, “You ask too much. Just tell them that I’m from the Prospecting Hall. As for my common name, there’s no need to worry about that. There are many reasons for a person’s name.”

Zhao Hai laughed and no longer cared. He nodded and said, “Alright, then I’ll call you Ban Li when I introduce you to others. Right, I seem to have offended someone. So now I’m being extra careful. If I hadn’t recognized you, I wouldn’t have been so polite.”

Hearing Zhao Hai, Han Buli couldn’t help but ask, “Offended someone? Who?”

Zhao Hai smiled and said, “You didn’t hear? My opponent yesterday was Ye Tiancheng.”
