Chapter 2443 - 1937: The Rewards of Six Consecutive Victories!

Second shift, asking for subscriptions and monthly votes~~~...

Of course, it's still too early to talk about this now.

After experiencing several intense battles in a row, Qin Fang has come to understand the strength and foundation of these disciples from prestigious sects. If it weren't for his considerable number of cards and extraordinary physique, coming from a wild path, he might not have been able to withstand so many opponents.

Luckily, although the process was dangerous at times, Qin Fang managed to hold on all the way... In the process of trying not to use those forbidden cards, Qin Fang easily advanced to the finals with a record of six consecutive wins.

This way, his status as a seeded player of the Kunlun Sect is well-deserved...

After all, the other five among the top six are almost all masters from the five great sects who've been openly recognized beforehand... For example, Li Wuhua, the "Lawless and Unruly" brothers, Leng Bingbing, and the Dragon Elephant Dharma King.

Compared to Qin Fang's perilous breakthrough through consecutive intense battles, the others seemed much more relaxed.

All are disciples from the five great sects; although they don't know each other deeply, they have some understanding, making fights relatively easy... Moreover, their abilities generally surpassed other contestants by a significant margin, making it naturally easier for them.

They didn't need to hide or suppress their strength and cards like Qin Fang, and with fewer concerns, their moves were relatively relaxed.

After defeating Duolun, Qin Fang officially entered the top six ranks.

Of course, he also finished today's matches and can go back to rest and heal... Next, the opponents he must face are the five strongest individuals in this year's sect competition, and this is just the beginning of the real tough test.

"Senior Brother Qin... Thank you!"

As usual, while drinking at the bar, a Kunlun disciple sneaked over, looked at Qin Fang with a grateful expression, and expressed.

"Thank me for what?"

Qin Fang was slightly taken aback; he knew this Kunlun disciple but only as a casual acquaintance, not really familiar enough to be considered strange.

"Thank you for letting me into the finals..."

This disciple explained with gratitude, which made Qin Fang suddenly realize.

Obviously, Duolun's violation had concluded, and according to usual rules, Duolun's slot was canceled and compensated to Kunlun... The Kunlun disciple before him was one of Kunlun's contestants with high hopes of reaching the finals, but unfortunately, his luck fell just a bit short.

Now that Qin Fang secured a slot for Kunlun, naturally it fell onto him... Perhaps he might rank quite low among the thirty contestants, maybe even last, but it still qualified him to enter the Barbaric Wilderness Mini Secret Realm for cultivation.

Just this favor alone was enough for this Kunlun disciple to be deeply grateful to Qin Fang.

After all, the qualification to enter the Barbaric Wilderness Mini Secret Realm generally comes only once; missing this chance means never having another opportunity... Just when he had completely lost the qualification, he found a surprise falling from the sky.

No matter what his previous attitude towards Qin Fang was, he had to come and thank Qin Fang at this time.

"It was just a fortunate accident for me... How about sitting down and having a drink together to congratulate you on making it through?"

Qin Fang also expressed somewhat speechlessly, rubbing his head, and warmly invited this disciple named Pan Yi to sit down for a drink.

Initially, Qin Fang hadn't expected things to develop to this extent.

Duolun and Jiali Cuo are brothers; they undoubtedly hate Qin Fang deeply, but after all, this is just a martial arts match, not a life-and-death duel, where clashes are mostly just sparring... Yet, Duolun, the lunatic, unexpectedly self-destructed.

If he had taken Qin Fang down with him, then the Esoteric Sect losing a slot wouldn't be much of an issue, at least they still gained something... Even the other great sects would have been quite pleased to see such a scene.

Unfortunately, the Esoteric Sect miscalculated, and Duolun died in vain...

Not only died in vain, but the Esoteric Sect also suffered severe losses, truly losing both the lady and the army... It was said that Master Zhadao almost swallowed Jiali Cuo, who had become a cripple, alive because of this!

Although Pan Yi felt a bit awkward, he couldn't resist the strong pull of Qin Fang and Jian Qingfeng and sat down to drink and chat together.

Qin Fang and his companions were already quite familiar with each other, and they would talk endlessly about everything unless it involved sect secrets... Even some unclear tales from the Martial World were not spared.

As they chatted, a few people couldn't help but talk about the Evil Sect...

Of course, they didn't mention that a few of them teamed up to kill those Evil Sect experts, only saying that if they went out to train in the future, they would definitely use these Evil Sect disciples as sacrifices for their blades, and even shouted that if the Evil Sect disciples came, they would definitely slaughter them.

"Speaking of which, it reminds me, I saw one of the Senior Brothers from Tianwai Tower a couple of days ago who was acting quite strangely. Late at night, he sneaked out as if to meet someone... That person looked quite suspicious!"

Initially, Pan Yi was a little reserved, but the people present were all bold and uninhibited. Plus, after a few drinks, he gained enough courage to join in the idle chatter, casually muttering this sentence as they bantered.

Among the people present, Qin Fang, Jian Qingfeng, and Pan Yi were Kunlun disciples, Monk Wu Fa was a Shaolin disciple, and Ye Xiang was a disciple of Tianwai Tower... Basically, aside from the Esoteric Sect and Tianya Haige, disciples from three of the Five Great Sects were gathered here.

Because Ye Xiang was a Tianwai Tower disciple, he couldn't help but pause when Pan Yi suddenly mentioned this, as if he'd been shot by an arrow, and he sat upright, asking curiously, "Is what you said true, Junior Brother Pan?"

Qin Fang and the others naturally responded instantly... Maybe most people didn't know about Evil Sect experts arriving, but Qin Fang and the others had already fought them and killed several, so they were well aware.

Pan Yi might have been joking, but they couldn't pretend they didn't hear it, so they curiously asked about it.

"Of course it's true! Speaking of which, it's quite coincidental. That day..."

Pan Yi didn't notice the change in Qin Fang and the others' expressions, simply recapping the events of that night.

Indeed, it was quite a coincidence. Pan Yi had a sudden urge to urinate late at night, and the bathroom was occupied, so he sneaked out to urinate in a corner. He happened to see a Tianwai Tower disciple sneaking out, even wearing Kunlun Sect attire.

Since Pan Yi was a Kunlun disciple, he naturally knew all his fellow disciples. Seeing this person who clearly wasn't from their sect dressed this way, he decided to keep an eye on him, secretly trailing to see what was going on.

He discovered the disguised Kunlun disciple met with a man exuding an eerie aura in the outskirts of Shangri-La... He didn't hear what was said between them because his abilities were limited, and he dared not get too close, only watching from afar.

The two only spoke for a few minutes before quickly parting ways...

The disguised Kunlun disciple returned to town, while the eerie man vanished into the night...

Pan Yi was curious at the time and originally wanted to follow them for investigation, but hesitated due to his weak abilities, not daring to alert them, so he returned... The next day, he happened to see the disguised Kunlun disciple at the martial arts event in the Tianwai Tower camp, wearing Tianwai Tower attire, and thus realized the person's true identity.

Hearing this, Qin Fang and the others couldn't help but exchange glances.

They were already aware that Evil Sect members lurked among them... Yet they hadn't anticipated these members were infiltrating the disciples of the Five Great Sects, indicating the Evil Sect's ill intent.

Moreover, the Evil Sect experts previously launched sneak attacks and assassinations on them... It's uncertain if this Tianwai Tower disciple hadn't already undergone The Substitution of Plum for Peach Decoy, becoming the Evil Sect's inside agent within the Five Great Sects!

"Junior Brother Pan, when we head over tomorrow, point that person out for me..."

Ye Xiang considered and decided.

"No problem..."

Pan Yi didn't grasp the intrigue, only assuming Ye Xiang was concerned about undesirables within their sect and wanted to identify them early... Such incidents were quite common among the Great Sects, so he didn't think much of it.

Knowing the inside story, only Qin Fang and the others truly understood what this represented...

Nothing noteworthy happened overnight.

After a whole night of recuperation, Qin Fang's injuries were mostly healed.

Actually, he wasn't too severely injured to begin with...

Duolun's self-detonation caused a dense cloud of smoke, obscuring Qin Fang's presence completely... Hence, when Qin Fang openly released his puppet as a decoy, almost nobody noticed.

The puppet absorbed the majority of the impact for Qin Fang, while the remaining forces were endured by his formidable physique... This only left Qin Fang with minor internal injuries, which quickly healed.

Though not fully recovering to his pre-injury state, he's almost there.

Regarding the Snowflake Jade Dew, Qin Fang had already stored it away without hesitation, not planning to use it this time as there was no necessity... But next time, he can't guarantee he won't need it.

Such an elixir is invaluable sometimes, and Qin Fang wouldn't waste it on such minor issues, naturally keeping it in reserve for emergencies...(to be continued.
