Chapter 524 - What Do You Think?
The Skyhowl White Tiger!
The Divine Beast that was protecting the Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom. It had been able to kill Martial Sacred Realm experts since long ago, thus its cultivation now would surely be more formidable.
If one were able to cleanse their flesh with a drop of its blood, the benefits would be unimaginable.
Many geniuses were interested in joining the White Tiger Platoon just to acquire the blood of the Skyhowl White Tiger.
“Gasp…”
Xue Meng, Ling Wushuang, and the others collected their thoughts and inhaled deeply.
At that instant, they all wished that they could replace QIn Nan and accept the offer.
Xu Ao wore a confident smile. He believed that among the top geniuses of the Sky-Scorching Ancient Kingdom, not many would be able to resist the temptation of the Skyhowl White Tiger’s blood. He could already imagine the scene where the young man before him swiftly accepted the offer without hesitation.
After all, nobody would reject such benefits and the influence of the White Tiger Platoon.
“If this man were to join our White Tiger Platoon, the Martial Sacred Realm, Martial Highness Realm, and Martial Dominator Realm experts of our platoon would be completely undefeatable. The Vermilion Bird Platoon wouldn’t stand a chance against us. Our platoon could even face the power of the other three great factions…”
Countless thoughts flashed across Xu Ao’s mind, causing his breathing to intensify. However, he soon realized something was out of the place.
It appeared that despite the fact that a period of over ten breaths had passed, the young man before him remained as calm as before.
What did this mean?
That was a drop of blood of the Skyhowl White Tiger, wasn’t he interested at all?
In addition to Xu Ao, the rest of the crowd realized that this mysterious genius was being way too calm.
“What? Is a single drop of the Skyhowl White Tiger’s blood not enough for you? Our White Tiger Platoon is willing to give you more than that!” Xu Ao took a deep breath and said in a calm tone.
The other geniuses were dumbstruck once again. More benefits!
This Xu Ao definitely wanted to recruit the mysterious young man into their platoon!
Qin Nan shook his head and brought his fists together, “My name is Duan Qing. I’m utterly grateful to be so highly anticipated by Vice-Platoon Leader Xu. However, Elder Wang, do you have anything to say?”
Elder Wang was startled. He had not expected Qin Nan to ask him this question all of a sudden. He opened his mouth and was about to say something, before he shook his head with a wry smile.
Different from the White Tiger Platoon, the people of the Vermilion Bird Platoon were required to earn these powerups themselves.
Even though this Duan Qing was truly a top genius.
Xu Ao’s eyes flickered with disdain after seeing this. As long as Duan Qing was not an idiot, he would definitely choose to join the White Tiger Platoon.
Qin Nan pondered for a moment before he spoke, “Three Vice-Platoon Leaders, before making my decision, I’ve got a question for you. I believe you all know the famous Qin Nan that came from the lower district. What do you think about him? I’m only asking this as I happened to battle against him previously.”
Longhu could feel his lips twitching after hearing this. Since when had Qin Nan become such a badass, asking the others about his own information.
That being said, he was intrigued by the words, and stared curiously at the three Vice-Platoon Leaders.
The crowd of geniuses and the Vice-Platoon Leaders were slightly surprised. They had never expected Qin Nan’s name to be mentioned suddenly.
“If we’re able to stumble into him, we the Black Tortoise Platoon would try our best to capture him!” Vice-Platoon Leader Xiong wore a hideous grin. He had always wanted to seek out Qin Nan.
Elder Wang let out a wry smile. Qin Nan was a peerless genius without a doubt. He had initially invited Qin Nan as he considered him the hope of their platoon to alter the current situation. However, he had yet to hear any news from him.
Elder Wang withdrew his thoughts and shook his head, “Our Vermilion Bird Platoon focuses on pursuing the path of cultivation. We seldom interfere in affairs like this.”
The words were nothing but an excuse.
“HAHA!” Xu Ao burst out laughing and said, “Cultivator Duan Qing, speaking of Qin Nan, that’s another reason you should join our White Tiger Platoon! Our platoon is currently working together with the headquarters of the Trading Alliance. As soon as Qin Nan shows himself, our White Tiger Platoon will move out straight away to eliminate him!”
After saying this, Xu Ao’s expression became even more confident.
It was obvious why Duan Qing would suddenly ask them about Qin Nan—in his previous battle against him, he had either lost the battle or it was a draw; thus he could not admit it to be the final outcome. He was eager to meet him again for a rematch.
It was extremely easy to understand the truth.
A real genius would be willing to accept all sorts of challenges, and would desire to fight fair battles against worthy opponents and emerge victorious in the end!
This was the pride of a real genius.
“Oh Elder Wang, if Duan Qing ends up joining us, I would like to see how you’re going to match our strength…”
Upon having this thought, Xu Ao glimpsed at Elder Wang with a mocking expression.
Elder Wang could easily guess his thoughts, but he had no regrets.
The geniuses could feel their hearts racing.
As expected of the White Tiger Platoon, their people were tyrannical as usual.
Longhu wore a weird expression after hearing the words. If it weren’t for his endurance that had improved lately, he would have burst out laughing straight away.
Qin Nan’s eyes instantly coldened. How nice of the White Tiger Platoon to cooperate with the Trading Alliance and be prepared to hunt him down at all times.
“Thanks for your input.” Qin Nan took a deep breath and calmly said, “I’ve decided to join…”
Qin Nan paused for a moment, causing the hearts of the crowd to skip a beat.
“The Vermilion Bird Platoon!”
Following the words, the entire place fall into a dead silence.
The Vermilion Bird Platoon?
Did Duan Qing just choose the Vermilion Bird Platoon?
Did...did he make a mistake!?
In terms of resources, background, benefits, etc., it was obvious that the White Tiger Platoon had the upper hand!
“What did you say?” Xu Ao’s eyes widened while his face was filled with disbelief, “How could you choose the Vermilion Bird Platoon after all the benefits I offered? Are you crazy?”
Xu Ao blurted out without a second thought.
“I’m sorry, Vice-Platoon Leader Xu, I insist on joining the Vermilion Bird Platoon. Besides, you’re the one that’s crazy.”
Qin Nan said in a cold tone.
This Vice-Platoon Leader Xu’s behavior was quite interesting. So it was his fault for not joining the White Tiger Platoon now?
“What did you say?”
Xu Ao was stunned for a moment, before a terrifying surge of rage burst out from his body, causing the entire hall to quaver vigorously, “How bold of you, you dare call me crazy! Are you sick of living!?”
BANG!
The aura of the peak Martial Highness Realm was completely unleashed due to his fury.
As a matter of fact, the main reason was still the fact that Qin Nan had rejected his offer!
What right did he have to reject such an outstanding offer!
“HAHAHAHA! Vice-Platoon Leader Xu, what are you trying to do? Duan Qing is now one of the Vermilion Bird Platoon, you can’t simply target him!” Following a great laugh, Elder Wang’s figure landed in front of Qin Nan, serving as a protective barrier.
At that moment, Elder Wang’s face was entirely filled with joy, as if he had regained his youth. His face was thoroughly reddened in excitement.
Who would have thought such a talented genius would choose their Vermilion Bird Platoon in the end!
Although a single genius was unable to alter the entire situation, but he represented...a ray of hope!
