826 -29: The Strongest Lying Win_3
Tang Xian no longer said anything, the monotonous leveling began.
The Erosion Dragon was now very anxious, as this was the first piece of food that hadn’t dissolved at the entrance.
It couldn’t imagine how such a small existence could survive in its stomach acid.
It didn’t have time to ponder too much, as the increasing pain had made it impossible to think in detail.
The sea monster watched the battlefield with delight.
Sometimes there are such oddballs, who just wait to see you trip up and keep giving you a hard time.
But if you suddenly get really stumped, it might feel somewhat disappointed.
Watching Tang Xian struggle to survive in a deadly situation, the sea monster was exceedingly thrilled.
What happened next was quite comical.
For the first time, the Erosion Dragon felt nauseous, all because of such a minuscule being compared to itself.
Nobody could see what Tang Xian did; amidst the somewhat lengthy wait, the Erosion Dragon’s expression became more and more agonized.
It was like a test subject gradually feeling the intensifying pain on a pain simulator, going from a mosquito bite to the agony of childbirth.
What was initially a sour, tingling pain turned into heart-wrenching, unbearable agony.
The Erosion Dragon, with its iron bones and steely resolve, would definitely not admit defeat.
Five minutes later, the Erosion Dragon surrendered on its own accord.
Tang Xian didn’t continue to torment it and asked the Erosion Dragon to spit him out.
The creature had become docile now, no longer questioning Tang Xian’s words.
“Before I leave, I need you to use a Soul Crystal to get me a set of clothes.
Because mine have been completely corroded by your stomach acid.”
[Alright…] The Erosion Dragon just wanted Tang Xian to come out quickly, desperately making retching motions.
These sea beasts had some understanding of the Erosion Dragon; this creature that devoured everything had never regurgitated its food before.
Tang Xian seemed to be pushed out by a tremendous force.
Then he crashed hard onto the arena floor, fracturing it upon impact.
Tang Xian fell into unconsciousness once again.
Since the Erosion Dragon admitted defeat, Tang Xian won the battle.
Looking at the one who had moved up from rank eighty-two to forty-two…
For a moment, the sea beasts went silent, not knowing what to say.
Tang Xian couldn’t be bothered to think, waiting to be arranged for the next challenge.
He had observed, the sea beasts ranked at thirty-two and twenty-two were also extraordinarily huge.
At this moment, the sea beast ranked thirty-second, the creature dubbed the Tyrant of the Abyss, was very nervous.
That small one didn’t look strong at all, but there was something quite tricky about him.
It seemed all he had to do was to lie there doing nothing, and he would claim victory.
Red Emperor said:
“To be able to stay inside the Erosion Dragon’s stomach, this indicates he possesses a life force even stronger than mine, possibly comparable to our master’s.
There’s no need to test him any further.
The two strongest competitors in the free-for-all are him and Junlin.”
The sea monster nodded, deactivated the Telekinesis, and began to spin the wheel normally.
The battles that followed were various sea beasts fighting among themselves.
Tang Xian, lifted out of the arena by the current, sat quietly in the corner and carefully gathered intelligence.
In the meantime, Red Emperor sized up Tang Xian three times, Junlin did so five times, and the sea monster glanced at Tang Xian from time to time, whether or not there was something to see.
Tang Xian didn’t mind, knowing he had been seen through, but since he hadn’t revealed any of his trump cards, he did not care at all.
As the bouts continued, fewer and fewer sea beasts remained in the arena.
Tang Xian had more fights to come, still adopting the tactic of “fake it till you make it,” ending up sprawled on the ground seemingly half-dead to clinch the victory.
And so, he “lay” his way up to the twelfth rank.
Interestingly, Tang Xian appeared utterly weak, as though each win meant he’d taken a trip to the brink of death, yet the subsequent Challengers didn’t dare to challenge him again.
It was as if he could put his opponents to sleep by doing nothing but lying down.
Time slowly passed, and the battles within the arena continued, non-stop.
Eventually, when only about twenty sea beasts remained, Tang Xian’s gaze began to sharpen.
Just a few more fights,
He looked over at Junlin, an image of innocent harmlessness.
“Does our agreement still stand?
I’ve proven myself too, haven’t I?”
[Not bad, but I’d advise you to recognize your own limits.
Only I can defeat that guy.]
“Don’t worry, you challenge Red Emperor, and I’ll take care of the small fry,” Tang Xian said, showing a face that seemed to agree.
The melee was imminent, and he knew it was time to show off some real strategies.
