Immortality Cultivation: I Can increase My Stats Using Clansmen's Qi-Blood

Beneath the platform, the audience gazed at the robust figure on stage, who resembled a tiger or a wolf.

The crowd couldn't help but cheer loudly.

It seemed they wanted to ignite the already intense atmosphere of the moment.

"Hahaha, this competition is becoming increasingly interesting," they laughed.

Amid countless gazes, a man in brocade took confident strides onto the platform.

He stood at the center, hands behind his back, gazing intently at the man ready for combat, and said with a smile, "Lin Hu, I've long heard of your significant reputation near Weiqing City. Since you're participating in the Qingshi City Rankings Tournament today, let me have the honor of meeting you in battle!"

His voice trailed off slowly.

Suddenly, the entire square burst into an uproar once more.

Clearly, the man in brocade also had quite a reputation within a thousand miles of Weiqing City.

Lin Hu's pupils dilated, a fierce murderous intention flashing in his eyes.

Although the man before him seemed to have spoken some ordinary words,

any sane person could easily discern.

This man... sought to use him as a stepping stone.

A tool to amplify his own fame.

With that in mind, Lin Hu glowered at the man in brocade and said, "Lin Yunlong, you damn well wait for me. Once I beat you off this platform, I'll make sure you beg for life but yearn for death!"

Upon hearing Lin Hu's words, Lin Yunlong just gave a faint smile.

He lifted his head, gazed toward Wei Wujie on the high stage, made a fist salute, and said, "City Lord Wei, isn't it time for the fight to begin?"

Wei Wujie observed Lin Yunlong's comment and nodded lightly.

Suddenly he swung his palm, and a mighty Qi-Blood Force burst forth from within him.

"Let the match begin!"

As his voice fell, the entire square devolved into a noisy tumult once again.

And Lin Yunlong, upon hearing Wei Wujie's words, shifted his form and instantly charged towards Lin Hu like a phantom.

Lin Hu saw Lin Yunlong coming at him, and a vicious light crossed the eyes of the tiger.

His body's vast Qi-Blood Force also began to circulate rapidly.

"Boom!"

The two figures collided violently on the platform.

The sound of Qi-Blood Force clashing echoed throughout the square.

All eyes were tightly fixed on the stage.

"Be careful, brother Yunlong!" a shout rang out.

With that shout, a whoosh shot forth from the platform.

A dark shadow sprayed from Lin Hu's hands.

It rapidly enlarged in midair.

It was a massive Wolf Fang Club!

Lin Hu's strength was already immense; now, with the weight and speed of the Wolf Fang Club, its power was incredibly fierce.

Lin Yunlong, watching the rapidly approaching Wolf Fang Club, narrowed his eyes slightly.

He grasped his palm, and a longsword appeared in his hand.

"Break!" he uttered softly, his body's Qi-Blood Force operating without any reservation at that moment.

"Boom!"

Sword Qi instantly rose from the longsword.

Under the watchful eyes, the fierce Sword Qi fiercely collided with the incoming Wolf Fang Club.

"Break for me!" Lin Yunlong roared, as the enormous Qi-Blood Force continued to smash relentlessly at the incoming Wolf Fang Club.

And with the relentless pounding of Qi-Blood Force, the already enormous Wolf Fang Club finally could not withstand the force and exploded with a sound.

As the massive Wolf Fang Club burst apart, Lin Hu's figure was also violently thrown out.

"Bang!" A muffled noise rose as Lin Hu's body was flung beneath the combat platform; amidst shocked gazes, he heavily crashed to the ground.

Countless gazes were locked onto the flung Lin Hu.

And as they watched, Lin Hu slowly opened his tightly shut tiger eyes.

"How is this possible?" Lin Hu stared blankly at the emptiness before him, his mind full of confusion.

His deadly strike had been so easily blocked by the opponent.

Was this really a cultivator at the Bone Refinement Late Stage?

With that, he struggled to his feet.

He lifted his head, looked towards Wei Wujie atop the high stage, made a fist salute, and said, "City Lord Wei, I concede."

As his voice echoed, silence fell over the entire square.

Everyone stared blankly at Lin Yunlong standing on the stage,

Their minds filled with shock.

Lin Yunlong had indeed defeated Lin Hu.

And given his easy demeanor before, it seemed he had won without much difficulty.

With that thought, a bitter feeling indescribably surged in their hearts.

In such an atmosphere, Wei Wujie too slapped the podium in front of him.

"This battle, Lin Yunlong wins!"

...

Following the conclusion of the first match,

The crowd in the square began discussing amongst themselves.

Luo Yao, situated in a corner, said calmly to his younger brother Luo Ze beside him: "That one named Lin Yunlong is indeed somewhat skilled. Such an outburst of Qi-Blood Force, even among the young talents of our Qingshi City, could probably rank quite high..."
