Xiang Nan had already grasped the essence of power, or perhaps this was just the tip of the iceberg, but at least Xiang Nan had already officially entered the door and could use power in actual combat.
As for Yun, Xiang Nan did not fully understand it, and only stayed at the stage of learning from Bai Wuya.
His charm could only be used in arena matches where there were clear rules, but in actual combat, he didn't have many chances to use it.
Xiang Nan wanted to further comprehend his own charm while fighting against experts in the Martial God Tower .
However, the rhyme was more complicated than the momentum.
In actual combat, the enemy released an extremely fast sword light towards you. No matter how powerful your charm is, there is no room for you to display it.
Or if the enemy released a martial skill that covered an extremely large area, what could Yun do?
Xiang Nan was still trying to figure out how to solve this problem.
The second challenger came on stage, still a white-bearded, white-haired old man.
Xiong Zhan stood at the edge of the arena with his shoulders crossed. He muttered to himself, "This Lei Gui always gives me a very wonderful feeling."
"Perhaps his battle consciousness has reached its peak in the contemporary era. Throughout the world, there may be only a handful of people who can truly defeat him."
"But looking at the entire history of martial arts, those true martial arts masters who were like stars and illuminated the night like lighthouses, Lei Gui might still be inferior to them."
"In every great era, there will be one or two people like Lei Gui, so Lei Gui is not unique in three hundred thousand years."
"But I have an inexplicable illusion. I think his momentum is very fast. He might even be the second founder of the martial arts world, Bai Wuya."
Xiong Zhan seemed to be talking to himself, but at this moment, an inexplicable voice suddenly appeared in his ears.
"Perhaps that's because he really resembles Bai Wuya. Not only are his combat skills similar, but his temperament and love for martial arts are also very similar."
On the arena, the battle was over. Xiang Nan easily won five consecutive victories today!
The road to championship was only a step away from Xiang Nan.
Amidst the cheers of everyone present, Xiong Zhan announced Lei Gui's victory.
A soft voice whispered in his ear, "Are you really going to leave behind this kind of trouble? If I were you, I would think of a way to get rid of him."
Xiong Zhan smiled and said, "With my temper and temperament, I would have killed him without saying a word in the past. If I couldn't keep him, I would have destroyed him."
"But he touched my heart and reminded me of how childish and innocent I was when I first practiced martial arts."
"Let me ask you, if someone told you that you could go back more than 300,000 years and witness Bai Wuya's growth with your own eyes, what would you do?"
The voice said, "That was naturally an incomparably wonderful journey. I would be honored to see Bai Wuya rise. It would be an honor for me to witness the greatest moment in the history of martial arts."
Xiong Zhan nodded and said, "This is the feeling. I may never be able to see Bai Wuya's glory, but maybe I can see Thunder Ghost."
"If Thunder Ghost's name is as brilliant as Bai Wuya's in a few hundred thousand years, then there should be something on my tombstone that I can show off."
At this point, Xiong Zhan nodded to Xiang Nan from afar and left with large strides.
There are good people and bad people in this world. Good people want to live well for themselves and others.
Bad people only want to be good, but don't want others to be good.
This distinction had changed in Xiong Zhan's heart. For a moment, he thought that perhaps keeping Lei Gui was not to "make others feel good", but to make himself feel good.
During the meal, Xiang Nan sat on the left. On the right was the mad monk, on the right was the Dead Eye , and on the far right was Jiang Xuelu.
Jiang Xue Lu lowered her head to eat and drink, but she rarely spoke.
Xiang Nan was too busy in the first few days and did not notice this change in Jiang Xuelu. But today, the change in Jiang Xuelu was especially obvious. Even Xiang Nan discovered it.
Xiang Nan raised her glass and signaled for Xue Lu. She only lowered her head and raised her glass.
"Walk?" After finishing his meal, Xiang Nan said to Jiang Xue Lu.
The two of them arrived at the outskirts of the Martial God Tower 's residential area and took a walk under the mall.
"I've noticed something wrong with your mood these past few days. Is the exile island putting too much pressure on you? If that's the case, I can ask Dead Eye to send you back first."
"Don't worry, I will definitely get the Essence Stones."
Unexpectedly, Xue Lu suddenly became excited. She shouted to Xiang Nan, "You treat everyone so well! Can't you treat others better and treat some people better! Your attitude of treating everyone well is really annoying, do you know that?"
"I don't understand what you're talking about," Xiang Nan said curiously, confused.
Jiang Xuelu said angrily, "If you don't like me and don't want to be with me, why do you care about me? Leave me with this kind of indissoluble thought!"
Xiang Nan said, "My attitude has always been very clear. It is impossible between you and me. I care about you only because I regard you as my friend, because you also stood up when I was in danger."
"I did that to you because I like you. If you don't like me, don't provoke me!" Xue Lu was so angry that she hit Xiang Nan's chest.
"What do you mean by caring! We are all good to those we care about, and those who don't care about us are all cold schemes that kill without pity!"
"Everyone else is like this. Why can't you be like this?"
The smile on Xiang Nan's face disappeared. He said faintly, "If you think my kindness is a burden, you can refuse."
With that, Xiang Nan turned around and left.
Jiang Xuelu's eyes were red and she said, "Sorry, I went too far."
Xiang Nan's body stopped for a moment.
Jiang Xuelu said, "I used to think that I was worthy of you by virtue of my own identity, but the more I came into contact with you, the more I discovered that you were even more outstanding. In front of you, my identity as the eldest young miss of the Jiang Clan became worthless."
"It's my inferiority complex. I'm scared. I apologize to you."
Xiang Nan sighed and turned around. "I never thought you were bad. It's just that you thought too much about yourself."
"I've never felt that I'm outstanding. Is a strong martial artist considered outstanding? I don't think so. I feel that those who are happier than me are all much better than me."
"Let me tell you the truth, I don't accept you because of your status. It's not because you're not beautiful enough. It's simply because I don't love you."
"Besides, I already have a sweetheart."
Xiang Nan thought that what he said was amazing enough. To a girl, this kind of words could be considered very serious, right? I'm afraid that any girl who doesn't love you will be heartbroken when she hears her beloved say it out loud.
However, Xue Lu broke into tears and smiled.
Xiang Nan looked at her like she was looking at a novel species and said, "I really can't understand your personality."
Jiang Xue Lu wiped away her tears and smiled, "Fortunately, I thought you were a piece of wood that didn't get into the woods and didn't understand the scenery."
"So there is another kind of woman in this world. She has a kind of personality. If she can be loved by you, then I'm relieved."
"I'm not afraid of your indifference. I'm afraid that you're not interested in love. As long as someone else can open the window in your heart, I believe I can."
"You're hopeless, really." Xiang Nan shook his head and turned to leave.
