"Han Xiao, what are you talking about? You're injured so badly, it's the same even if we hold the Challenge Competition tomorrow." Xiao Ke Er shouted in dissatisfaction after hearing Han Xiao's words.

"Junior Sister Xiao, once the Challenger League begins, we will have to take turns fighting and defeat all ten of them in one day." Xi Yun said as he placed his hand on Xiao Ke Er's shoulder. His tone was filled with helplessness.

Hearing Xi Yun's words, Xiao Ke Er recalled the rules of the Challenger League and was immediately stunned. How could she forget that once the Challenger League started, they would have to go through with it.

A hint of emotion flashed past his eyes as he looked at Leng Qinghe indifferently. On the surface, he still had a cold expression as he said, "The third match will be between Han Xiao and Sun Qing. The next battle will begin."

Seeing the determination in the eyes of Han Xiao, who was struggling to stand, a trace of admiration rose in his heart. At the very least, if it were him, he would not be able to continue the fight while heavily injured.

"Zhangsun Qing, late stage of Bold Transformation." Zhang Sun Qing bowed to Han Xiao as he spoke, using a very polite attitude to face Han Xiao.

"Han Xiao, initial stage of Awakening." Right now, he no longer had the strength to do other superfluous things.

"If you're seriously injured right now, just say it directly." Zhangsun Qing said.

"Thank you for your concern, senior. I am a person who cares about my life. When I really can't do it, I won't force myself to do it." Han Xiao said with a faint smile.

Looking at Han Xiao's smile, Sun Qing was a little confused. He couldn't understand how Han Xiao could smile at a time like this, and with such an indifferent smile at that.

Although he was heavily injured, Han Xiao's speed did not slow down by even a bit. In his dazed state, he felt like he had returned to the time when he was training in the Soul-Splitting Cliff.

"Whap." Han Xiao's and Zhangsun Qing's fists collided in midair, and at the same time, Han Xiao sent a kick towards Zhangsun Qing's stomach.

Sensing the strength in Han Xiao's body, Sun Qing subconsciously used his own strength to kick Han Xiao's leg.

His attack was blocked by Han Xiao, and he was forced to retreat, once again attacking Zhangsun Qing with punches and kicks, and Zhangsun Qing also directly used his most basic physical combat techniques to fight Han Xiao.

Bang! Bang! The sounds of flesh colliding continuously sounded out on the stage, Han Xiao's injuries worsened with every punch he threw out, and he was so dizzy that it was difficult for him to stabilize his body. However, he still persisted in not falling down, stubbornly using the only strength he could use to clash with Zhangsun Qing.

Perhaps it was because he was infected by Han Xiao, or perhaps he did not want to win like this … … Even if Zhang Sun Qing did not use any Origin Energy, he would only use his most basic physical body to fight with Han Xiao. Although Han Xiao's fists and feet were injured from time to time, he would still persevere.

Looking at the two people below the stage as if they were infected, they shouted with all their might, and suddenly, Zhangsun Qing lost track of the situation. Han Xiao seized the opportunity and stood up, and used his elbow to strike Zhangsun Qing in the stomach, and at the same time his right hand turned into a blade as he placed it around Zhangsun Qing's neck.

Sensing the pain coming from his abdomen and Han Xiao's trembling body, Zhangsun Qing let out a long breath, raised his head and calmly said to Leng Qinghe: "Principal Leng, I admit defeat."

"What?" Right after Changsun Qing said that, even Han Xiao was stunned. If the situation continued, he would definitely be the one to lose. However, Changsun Qing had actually admitted defeat.

"Senior, if I continue to lose, the one that will definitely be me." Han Xiao said calmly.

"Even if I were to lose, it would be me. Han Xiao, it's not that I want to let you win on purpose, it's just that I've really lost." After saying that, Zhangsun Qing gently pushed Han Xiao's hand away and jumped off the stage under the astonished gazes of the crowd.

Seeing Zhangsun Qing admit defeat to Leng Qinghe, she did not even notice that she had let out a sigh of relief. However, when she saw Han Xiao's tottering body, a trace of worry flashed across the eyes of the seven other people present, "It's Han Xiao's turn for the next match!"

"Let's see who still dares to enter the arena." At this moment, a bell-like voice sounded out in the air. Leng Qinghe raised his head and saw a lady dressed in green, her aura even stronger than his.

"Xuan'er." After hearing that voice, Han Xiao immediately recognized that it was Gu Xuan'er's voice, but he was still afraid that it was just a misconception. However, when he saw the figure that had fallen from the sky, looking at that familiar face, Han Xiao dared to confirm that the person in front of him was indeed the Gu Xuan'er who had already disappeared for nearly half a year.

Seeing Han Xiao's body full of wounds, Gu Xuan'er's heart was overjoyed as she walked in front of Han Xiao, and in front of everyone present, she directly slapped him.

"Xuan'er." Han Xiao's eyes were filled with disbelief as he touched his face. From his previous life until now, this was the first time he was slapped by a woman.

"Xiao, are you an idiot or do you just want to die like that? The poison has already entered my internal organs, and you're still fighting with me? It's not easy for me to settle this matter, but when I return, you're treating yourself like this?" Gu Xuan'er said angrily, but her words were filled with worry.

"Um, Xuan'er, I know my limits, can you?" After being slapped in front of so many people, no matter how thick-skinned he was, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

"You have a sense of propriety and a sense of propriety to make yourself look like this. I don't care if you come with me right now." With that said, Gu Xuan'er pulled Han Xiao's hand and was about to leave the stage.

"Xuan'er, I'm still competing." Han Xiao helplessly looked at Gu Xuan'er as he said this.

"Why don't we delay the competition? Leng Qinghe, go back and tell Xiao Zhenxiao that I was the one who took him away, and that the competition was also suspended by me. If you break any of your academy's rules, then let him come find me." With that, Gu Xuan'er ignored Han Xiao's struggling and directly disappeared from the stage.

Seeing that Han Xiao was suddenly taken away, Leng Qinghe was stunned for a moment, but then he let out a sigh of relief. Although it was against the rules, since Gu Xuan'er had said so, he could use this reason to allow Han Xiao to recover and then continue with the competition.

"We'll stop here for today's Challenger League. I'll get the principal to personally explain it to you. You can all leave." With that, Leng Qing He also flew away.

"Han Xiao, now that Gu Xuan'er has returned, your heart should be able to return, right? Although I have let it go, why does it still hurt to see you two together?" Xiao Ke Er looked at the empty arena and silently thought.

On the other side, Han Xiao was directly brought back to his house by Gu Xuan'er. Before he could even ask where Gu Xuan'er had been recently, she had forced him to place a pill inside.

"This is a Poison Repellent Pill. If consumed, it can expel all poisons below the Transcending Mortality Stage." Gu Xuan'er indifferently said.

As the pill entered his body, Han Xiao felt a cool sensation coming from the medicine shop. The piercing pain in his heart became better, and was no longer as unbearable as before.

"Xuan'er, this period of time." Feeling that he was no longer in such pain, Han Xiao carefully opened his mouth, but before he could ask anything, Gu Xuan'er had already wrapped her arms around him.

"Xiao, you bastard, you are trying to scare me to death. I finally managed to convince Uncle Cheng to let me come back to find you, but you ended up with injuries all over your body. You are going to anger me to death." Gu Xuan'er choked with sobs as she spoke.

"Xuan'er, I admit that I lost control today. There won't be a next time." Han Xiao forced a smile.

Originally, he didn't want to fight like this, but after seeing the blood on his hands, he couldn't control his emotions anymore. Thinking about this, Han Xiao's eyes darkened. It seemed that he really did have to learn how to control himself.

"Xiao, are you losing control? Is putting your life on the line to fight someone else is something a normal person can do?" Gu Xuan'er said in dissatisfaction.

"That's because my mind isn't normal to begin with." Han Xiao said while laughing at himself.

Hearing Han Xiao's self-deprecation, Gu Xuan'er's heart tightened and just as she was about to speak, she met Han Xiao's gentle eyes, not knowing what to say.

"Xuan'er, it's good that you're back." With that, Han Xiao closed his eyes and fell into a coma.
