Chương 201: War God’s — Chapter 202 - Why Would We Need Teacher Luo to Step In? I'll Handle It!

"This is the Sacred Spirit Gu," Bang Gu said.

"It's a new type of Gu insect from our Southern Nation. Once it enters a martial artist's body, it can rapidly absorb toxins."

"It can even absorb some Malevolent Qi..."

"Unfortunately, this Gu can't be mass-produced. It's extremely rare. Otherwise..." Bang Gu sighed.

"It could even cure Beast Cancer!" That would be impressive.

"Then let's do it," Wang Xian said with a smile.

"My meridians have accumulated quite a bit of toxin."

"Alright! Don't be afraid, classmate. With so many Grandmaster-level experts present, I wouldn't dare try anything," Bang Gu said with a smile. Bang Gu placed the strange Gu insect onto Wang Xian's palm. The next moment, it vanished. At the same time, Wang Xian sensed something inside the meridians of his palm. Wang Xian secretly channeled the toxins from his Divine Meridians into his palm meridians. The little bug, as if smelling something delicious, quickly absorbed the toxins.

It seems it could even absorb a bit of Spirit Malevolence from the Divine Meridians. But only a tiny bit. After absorbing just a little, the bug acted stuffed and refused to absorb any more. This bug, just as Bang Gu said, could absorb toxins with ease.

"It seems the toxins have been fully absorbed," Bang Gu said with a smile.

"I have a slight connection with the Sacred Spirit Gu... it appears full now. I'll call it out." Bang Gu circulated his Yuan Force over Wang Xian's palm and gave a gentle hooking motion. Inside the meridian, the little bug began to slowly disappear. However, at that very moment, Wang Xian unexpectedly sensed that where the bug had vanished, a semi-transparent egg had appeared. The egg hatched, but the newborn vanished as if turning invisible.

If not for the uniqueness of his Divine Meridians, he probably wouldn't have sensed it at all! Interesting. I never even heard of the Sacred Spirit Gu in my previous life. However, the Mother-Child Hidden Spirit Gu, I do know a thing or two about that. The mother Gu controls, the child Gu hides. Once the child Gu has lain dormant long enough, a mere thought from the mother Gu can control the beast or martial artist where the child Gu hides. So, Chi Jiuyou, this is your scheme. Have Bang Gu step forward to fight.

Win or lose, I'd end up poisoned, giving Bang Gu an excuse to secretly plant this Hidden Spirit child Gu in my body while detoxifying me. Not bad. A brilliant move. As expected of you. Wang Xian could already picture what would come next. When he and Chi Jiuyou truly faced off head-on, he would reveal all his trump cards, only for the opponent to use the mother Gu to seize control at the critical moment and defeat him with ease. If I didn't know about this... I really would have fallen for your trick.

But if he did know... Wang Xian sensed the little bug inside his body. And smiled faintly. Then that's a different story. This little bug was actually a treasure! Some of the Southern Nation's Gu insects are exceptionally powerful. Some provide extremely strong martial enhancements. The narrative has been taken without permission. Report any sightings.

In his previous life, a Martial God from the Southern Nation on the Alien Star Battlefield had unleashed over 100 Gu insects at once, even managing to briefly control Z-class alien beasts of the same level! And this Hidden Spirit child Gu was also an exceedingly rare Gu insect in the Southern Nation. As for controlling him? Forget it. Under the influence of his Divine Meridians, this little bug would only be toyed with in the palm of his hand. Wang Xian certainly wouldn't expose it casually.

"Then, classmate, I'll take my leave now..." After retrieving the Gu insect, Bang Gu's expression visibly relaxed. He clasped his fist toward Wang Xian and quickly descended the stage. As he walked down, he exchanged a brief, subtle glance with Chi Jiuyou below. Wang Xian returned to his original position.

"Are you alright..." Ye Miyue bit her lip lightly, her eyes filled with worry.

"Was the poison really neutralized?"

"Of course it was!" Wang Xian's voice rang out loud and clear, showing the entire venue that he was completely fine. At the same time, he praised, "This Grandmaster disciple from the Southern Nation has abundant martial virtue!" Ye Miyue studied him for a long while before nodding, though her eyes glistened faintly. She glanced at the remaining Grandmaster disciples. Clearly, none of them had any intention of fighting now. A wave of relief washed over her.

She hadn't expected that she wouldn't even need to step forward to resolve her master's predicament at this Grandmaster Banquet. At that moment, Principal Song spoke up with a smile:"Sucha, before the fight started, your disciple said that win or lose, your Southern Nation would provide an extra gift."

"Where is this gift?" Great Grandmaster Sucha stepped onto the stage. Beneath his black robe, his gloomy face remained calm. On the other side, Grandmaster Luo also stepped forward, indicating she wanted to see exactly what this gift was.

"Of course we have it." Sucha's voice was hoarse, yet carried a subtle undertone. He slowly extended his hand and produced a gift box. He opened it. Inside was a strange two-colored flower, radiating dazzling light. In an instant, it captured everyone's attention.

"I obtained this flower by chance..." Sucha revealed a ghastly pale smile.

"But its species is unknown, its effects unknown. All we can currently confirm is that it's at least B-rank."

"This flower contains special extraterrestrial cold crystal fragments within, yet its outer petals seem like flames. Two strange energies constantly intertwine."

"I came to attend this Grandmaster Banquet, having long heard that Tiandu's Forging Studies are renowned throughout Dragon Country."

"Among them..." Sucha looked toward Grandmaster Luo and said with respectful praise, "Grandmaster Luo stands foremost. At a young age, she personally forged a world-shaking divine sword! Her forging art has reached the acme of perfection! Presumably, she is also deeply knowledgeable about materials."

"I can gift this item to you."

"But, may I ask Grandmaster Luo to broaden the horizons of us martial artists from these barbarian lands?"

"To forge this extraterrestrial divine flower?"

"If your Tiandu's Grandmaster Luo is unable to forge it, then gifting this item to you would simply be a waste... Our Southern Nation is a small country that values materials greatly. Waste is shameful, and we have nowhere near the resources of your Dragon Country!"

"Therefore, if it cannot be forged, I will not give this item away after all." As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue erupted once more. Many spectators were astonished. They all sighed. This Grandmaster Banquet truly was extraordinary! Schemes at every turn! Wave after wave! They were truly exploiting every crack to make things difficult! Why? Because Grandmaster Luo, everyone at Tiandu University knew, had long since stopped studying or delving into Forging Studies. She had abandoned it!

Of course, if you were to ask whether Grandmaster Luo was once a forging prodigy, she absolutely was! But now, after so long... This new type of material, though only B-rank, might be forgeable by a Forging Master. And with new materials, without extensive prior research, hastily attempting to forge them would likely result in failure. Forging Studies has never been a discipline where one succeeds on the first attempt.

Not to mention, for someone who hasn't explore Forging Studies for so long, even a former Forging Master, who would dare claim they could forge it successfully? Once the forging fails, the material is ruined, and they seize the chance to attack.

"Our Southern Nation painstakingly found this new material, and you don't treasure it at all! It seems you hold no regard for our Southern Nation, damaging the friendship between our two nations!" If you lack confidence and refuse to forge, they also have something to say: your Tiandu Forging Studies, even your Grandmaster Luo is no good! How to handle this? Neither refusal nor acceptance was a good option. Grandmaster Luo frowned slightly, staring coldly at him.

She had anticipated that the Grandmaster Banquet would bring challenges. But she hadn't expected one targeting this. Truly formidable. Looking at the divine flower in the box, she furrowed her brow. Indeed, having not explore forging for so long, although she still retained some skill, due to certain reasons, it was very difficult for her to bring out the peak forging art of her prime. Forging this unknown material carried an extremely high chance of failure. But if she refused...

For a moment, she was caught between a rock and a hard place. The entire venue fell somewhat silent. Some Tiandu University students in particular grew extremely anxious. Over on Principal Song's side, Shen Lan abruptly stood up:"Sucha, this is..." Before she could finish, Principal Song pulled her back. Principal Song shook his head discreetly, signaling her not to speak. Shen Lan gave a cold snort. She also understood that the opponent's scheme was aimed precisely at a critical weak point!

And left you unable to refute it. But, what should they do next? For a moment, the many school leaders from Tiandu University on the stage all fell silent.

"If you lack confidence..." Sucha smiled faintly.

"Then this item is off the table. Your Tiandu Forging Studies..." Before he could finish, a voice drifted lightly from behind:"Our Tiandu Forging Studies are broad and profound."

"To forge a mere B-rank material, why would we need my Teacher Luo, a Forging Master, to step in?"

"I'll handle it." As soon as these words were spoken, the entire venue was stunned. Everyone turned toward the source of the voice, and for a moment, they were utterly dumbfounded. It was none other than Wang Xian! ➤ Next: Ice-Flame Dual Polarity Lotus
