Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 121: Chapter 103: Fishing Guild’s Chen Jiusi, Please Impart Your Knowledge (10,000 Words, Please Subscribe)_4

If my ”Inner Strength” were stronger and I found a Cultivation Technique similar to ”Lion Roar Technique”, I reckon I’d also possess formidable combat ability.

Chen Jie pressed on his ears, feeling a buzzing sensation.

Indeed, an Energy Transformation Master was not an opponent he could contend with at his level. A mere cold snort had caused him to freeze on the spot for a second. Don’t underestimate a second; in a life-and-death duel, that’s more than enough time for the enemy to slay him!

Chen Jie glanced at the three Energy Transformation Masters on the high platform and wondered when he too could become an Energy Transformation Master like them.

At that moment, the two Hall Masters on the platform spoke up to quell the commotion below.

Peng Shizhong then said to Gu Qingfeng, ”Brother Gu, the people below don’t understand the way Guild Cao wisely avoids trouble; it’s their fault.”

Gu Qingfeng’s face turned ashen, visibly upset.

In front of so many people, you’ve surrendered without a fight and scurried off the stage with your tail between your legs. Whose face have you lost?

The entire Guild Cao’s reputation has been thrown away by you!

Especially in front of Peng Shizhong and Zhang Liye.

You didn’t think to save face for your own Hall Master, did you? Look at Peng Shizhong; his face is almost twisted with laughter. What a bunch of good-for-nothings!

How embarrassing!

Gu Qingfeng, with his face ashen, stared fiercely at his own ranks. The Manager knew that his behavior had been shameful, but to continue fighting would mean death or crippling.

If it were the passionate me of the past, I would have risked my life for the guild, but now, pampered and well-to-do, I’m considered a distinguished gentleman in Xiantao Town.

What Yu Biao enjoys, I too can enjoy.

Wine and pleasures hadn’t drained my body, but wealth had drowned my heroic spirit.

I’m no longer the man who dares to fight; I’ve become a coward!

So he fled, ignominiously.

Lifting his head, he saw Gu Qingfeng’s face and immediately started trembling with fear, not daring to meet Gu Qingfeng’s eyes.

And Gu Qingfeng’s eyes, sharp as knives, swept across their faces, finally resting on Yu Biao’s.

As if to say, ”Yu Biao, is this how you honor me?”

Yu Biao’s face also turned ashen. He had not expected the Manager to lose face so terribly, but he was the village chief, responsible for all affairs in Xiantao Town. You could say he was bad, but he definitely wasn’t without responsibility.

At that moment, his expression darkened, and he went over to pat the Manager’s shoulder, saying, ”Are you all right?”

The Manager looked up with a pained expression and said, ”Lord, I...”

”It’s fine. Everything’s under control. Step down!” Yu Biao replied, then took a step forward and leaped onto the stage, looking at the Second Ship Leader, who was basking in the cheers.

With a trace of coldness in his voice, he said, ”Li Sanding, not bad at all!”

Li Sanding turned to look at Yu Biao and squinted his eyes, saying, ”Manager Yu, do you wish to instruct me?”

At that moment, Yu Biao’s expression turned cold, and with an arrogantly amused smile, he said, ”Instruct you? Hahaha... You, who’ve forced your strength to increase, are like an ant to me!”

”You!”

Yu Biao’s haughty demeanor was justified.

Guild Cao had lost a match and their morale was already low. At this point, it was essential to act arrogantly to boost the guild members’ spirits.

Most importantly, it was critical to satisfy Master Gu, Gu Qingfeng.

The Hall Master had been humiliated by Peng Shizhong of the Fishing Guild. A man of that position values face above all else. Only by dominating the opponent with the most arrogant attitude could he satisfy his own Hall Master.

Only if his own Hall Master was satisfied would he reap the benefits.

Therefore, whether he was to act arrogantly or with restraint was actually to echo his Hall Master’s approach.

Now that the Hall Master had been humiliated, regaining face meant being arrogant to make the Hall Master happy, which was the ultimate priority.

Li San, angered by Yu Biao’s arrogance, along with the Fishing Guild Disciples below, were incited by Yu Biao’s attitude.

However, the spirit of the Guild Cao disciples was revived, and they shouted, ”Manager, show them the might of Guild Cao!”

”Yes, finish off those stinking fishermen!”

”Crush them!”

Their shouts resounded through the heavens, and at that moment, on the platform, Gu Qingfeng’s face looked somewhat more pleased as he lifted his teacup for a sip.

Beside him, Peng Shizhong commented with a laugh, ”This Yu Biao is quite imposing!”

Gu Qingfeng smiled and said, ”He’s not as good as your Li Sanding, winning a round for the Fishing Guild and boosting its fame!”

Peng Shizhong didn’t respond, but there was a hint of concern in his expression.

Li Sanding’s realm, raised with the help of the Blood and Flesh Pill, might be unstable. This battle for the position of Village Chief was bound to be lost; the only hope was that the defeat wouldn’t be too disgraceful.

At that time, Yu Biao looked up at Gu Qingfeng and saw that his own words had indeed made his Hall Master’s face look a little better.

He thought that he must win glory for his Hall Master, must press down the Fishing Guild thoroughly.

He also needed to establish his own authority; if he didn’t show his dominance now, it would be difficult to suppress the Fishing Guild when he governed Xiantao Town in the future.

With these thoughts, Yu Biao slowly extended three fingers.

Everyone looked on in puzzlement, not understanding what Yu Biao meant.

Li Sanding also looked over, asking, ”What do you mean?”

Yu Biao said with supreme confidence, ”Three moves, just three moves, and I’ll defeat you!”

”Arrogant!”

Li Sanding’s face changed dramatically. Such lack of respect.

The surrounding Fishing Guild Disciples were infuriated too. Three moves? That’s blatant disrespect; we, who are also in the Refining Body Realm, are not afraid of you!

Fueled by these thoughts, the Fishing Guild Disciples were all vehemently excited.

Gu Qingfeng, hearing this, let a hint of a smile appear on his lips. Being competitive by nature, he naturally disliked seeing cowards among his ranks, especially in the presence of Peng Shizhong.
