Chapter 198: Chapter 198: One Hundred Percent Approval

The power disparity between Second Grade and Third Grade is simply not on the same level.

Moreover, Xiao Zhan vastly surpasses Huo Li in both combat experience and skills.

Being thrown seven or eight meters away was already Xiao Zhan showing mercy.

But Huo Li couldn’t appreciate Xiao Zhan’s restraint; covering his abdomen, he got up from the ground and threw another punch at Xiao Zhan, his face twisted with distorted anger and unwillingness.

"Still coming for more?"

Xiao Zhan had no interest in playing such a boring game. If Huo Li didn’t want to save face, then he couldn’t blame Xiao Zhan for not being polite.

With Spirit Manipulation Energy ignited, his movement technique was a fierce kick!

Striking right in his lower abdomen!

With this kick, powerful and heavy, Huo Li was sent flying and curled up on impact.

His face turned deathly pale instantly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and veins bulged. But even so, he seemed unwilling to give up, still trying to struggle to his feet.

Unfortunately, the force of Xiao Zhan’s kick was too great; no matter how strong his will, he couldn’t endure the pain in his body with willpower alone.

In a matter of seconds, he was so overwhelmed with pain that he passed out.

This scene shocked the onlookers.

Only then did they realize that the person before them possessed such terrifying strength.

Just one kick had knocked out their strongest young contender!

They began to understand why the Sacred Fire had recognized Xiao Zhan with ten Blood Red Flowers.

Standing by, Huo Lingjun watched this scene, a flicker of surprise crossing her eyes.

She knew Xiao Zhan would win, but she didn’t expect him to win so cleanly and swiftly, resolving the fight with just one move.

How old was Xiao Zhan?

He looked to be about the same age as Huo Li.

But the key point is that Huo Li has been nurtured by the Fire Attribute Energy since he was little.

And now, with his defeat, he has completely lost his qualification.

Alas, how foolish, she thought, unable to help even if she wanted to.

"Come with me."

Huo Lingjun said to Xiao Zhan.

Now that Huo Li had lost, her only thought was to find out why the Sacred Fire had given Xiao Zhan the recognition of ten Blood Red Flowers!

Especially since Xiao Zhan had already made a Contract.

You should know, those who have made a Contract should never receive the golden flower’s recognition!

Since the birth of the tribe, it had never happened!

So, she had to find out what was going on!

Xiao Zhan didn’t want to stay on the square any longer either. The way the people around looked at him was not nice, and he didn’t want to conflict with them, after all, they had saved him.

For no reason, he didn’t want to stir up trouble.

So without hesitation, followed by Ye Youlong, he left with Huo Lingjun.

Seeing this, Huo Liuli on the stand left the place as well.

Ten minutes later.

Xiao Zhan and Ye Youlong arrived at the Clan Leader’s stone house.

Upon entering, Xiao Zhan felt a bit surprised, because the last time he was here, the stifling heat was unbearable for him, every extra second spent was agony.

But now, he didn’t feel the slightest bit of heat; the temperature was cool, just like outside!

He recalled that ever since the baptism at the square, he suddenly had this feeling.

Could it be because of the baptism?

Huo Lingjun saw the confusion on his face and took the initiative to explain, "After receiving the recognition of the Holy Fire, you can not only practice Fire Attribute Energy but also adapt better to the tribal temperature environment."

"The higher the degree of recognition, the faster one practices, and the better one adapts to the environment. You have ten Blood Red Flowers, so without accidents, you should have the highest degree of recognition."

"How do you feel about the surrounding temperature now?"

Xiao Zhan said, "Very comfortable, just like outside, neither cold nor hot."

Huo Lingjun nodded, "Indeed so."

Then she added, "Both of you wait here for a moment."

After saying this, she turned and left the room.

Xiao Zhan thought it was just a short wait, but it turned out to be three to four hours.

Just when Xiao Zhan thought she had forgotten about them and was ready to go to bed, she finally returned, bringing Huo Liuli with her.

Just as Xiao Zhan was about to complain about her slowness, Huo Lingjun preempted him, "Do you know why Huo Li insisted on dueling with you?"

"I wanted to ask you the same question."

Xiao Zhan felt it was inexplicable; he hadn’t provoked Huo Li, so why did he insist on challenging him to a duel?

And even when he went easy, Huo Li kept on fighting.

Huo Lingjun said, "The reason is simple; your ten Blood Red Flowers threatened his eligibility to contract with Liuli, so he naturally wanted to duel with you."

A contract with her?

Xiao Zhan incredulously looked at her, then turned his head to Huo Liuli. He truly did not expect the ten Blood Red Flowers to have such a meaning.

No wonder Huo Li wanted to duel with him, with such an unrelenting attitude.

"First of all, it’s impossible for me to contract with her."

Xiao Zhan did not turn to look at Ye Youlong, but he could feel that when Huo Lingjun said this, Ye Youlong’s entire aura turned cold.

Discussing this matter in front of his own wife, isn’t this like causing trouble for himself?

After saying this, he worried Huo Lingjun might misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained, "Dueling with Huo Li wasn’t my intention. I didn’t know I would be taking his contract opportunity. If I had known, I definitely wouldn’t have dueled with him."

"Besides, I have already signed the Life and Death Contract, so I can’t contract with her either."

Xiao Zhan was filled with a desire for survival. Contracting with Huo Liuli and such, he really hadn’t thought about it.

After finishing, he was still somewhat worried and pushed Ye Youlong to the front.

He was not good at rejecting women; it was better to leave this kind of thing to his wife to handle.

However, both Huo Lingjun and Huo Liuli reacted calmly. They weren’t fools, and naturally knew Xiao Zhan had already contracted and it was the inseparable Life and Death Contract.

Huo Lingjun said indifferently, "I just went to look up the records. Your situation is very special, and such a case has never appeared in our tribe before."

"But according to the ancestors’ speculation and records, ten Blood Red Flowers should mean hundred percent recognition by the Holy Fire. Like Huo Li’s six Golden Flowers, it’s only a sixty percent recognition."

"The higher the recognition, the greater the benefits gained!"

"But the Holy Fire is bound with the tribe for life and death; its recognition is not without reason, especially because it definitely would not recognize someone unable to contract."

"Therefore, under these circumstances, for the Holy Fire to still choose to recognize you, I believe there must be some special secret about you."

Huo Lingjun’s aged face leaned close to Xiao Zhan’s, her eyes cloudy, but her gaze was extraordinarily sharp, as if piercing straight into Xiao Zhan’s heart.

Faced with such a gaze, Xiao Zhan couldn’t help feeling a bit unnerved.

But he definitely couldn’t admit that he could contract with multiple people, and said, "Are you so sure? The Holy Fire isn’t human; maybe it makes mistakes too."

However, this statement seemed to have hit a nerve with Huo Lingjun, and her tone suddenly soared, "The Holy Fire definitely does not make mistakes!"
