Cultivation: Starting from a Fighting Cock

Chapter 103 Reunion

Ji Cheng smiled knowingly, giving the Azure Flame Spirit Rabbit a chance to show off in front of Da Huang.

When Big Yellow heard that Brother Chicken had gone to Monkey Mountain alone to challenge a third-tier monkey demon, he instantly doubted his own existence and couldn't believe it was true.

Little Flower, who witnessed the battle, was now whimpering and describing the details to Big Yellow, making it impossible for Big Yellow not to believe her.

"Wang?"

Da Huang called out to Ji Cheng, "Brother Chicken, what's wrong with you? You just broke through to the first-tier demon beast level and you dare to challenge a third-tier demon beast?"

Moreover, it severely injured that third-tier monkey demon.
Ji Cheng laughed and said, "The main reason is that I can fly, which is a natural counter to many non-flying demonic beasts. By playing to my strengths and avoiding my weaknesses, and by making good use of tactics, I might be able to fight against monsters two levels higher."

After he broke through from a domestic fowl to a raptor, the biggest change was that he gained raptor-level flight ability.

After transforming into a demon, its flight ability was further enhanced, coupled with the wind-riding ability of the "Wind-blowing Chicken" title, and the movement technique "Cloud-Treading Flowing Wind Steps".

His flight speed is so fast that it can reach 200 meters per second, allowing him to come and go freely. Even third-tier demonic beasts cannot do anything about him.

If that third-tier monkey demon hadn't possessed a talent that allowed it to leap hundreds of feet high, it would have been completely dominated by Ji Cheng.

With just his fire-breathing and feather-blade attacks, he was the only one who could hit the monkey demon, while the monkey demon could not touch him.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Big Yellow jumped in front of Ji Cheng and hugged his chicken feet tightly, saying, "Brother Chicken, please take me with you!"

Then, it barked a string of compliments, saying that ever since the day you, Brother Chicken, spoke human language at the Zhao residence, I realized that you, this chicken, are extraordinary. After killing the wolf demon, I became even more convinced of this idea. I, Big Yellow, am willing to be your dog!

The Azure Flame Rabbit pointed at Big Yellow and squeaked, "Aren't you a dog to begin with? Why do you need to be a dog?"

The demons burst into laughter, filling the mountains and forests with amusement.

Sure enough, this team only gets fun when Big Yellow is around; that silly dog ​​is hilarious.

"Alright, don't worry, once we get the spirit fruit, we'll all get a share!"

"Alright, it's about time. Let's disperse. Big Yellow, since you're going back to the Zhao residence, keep an eye on Zhao Kun."

Ji Cheng felt that having Da Huang watching over Zhao Kun at the Zhao residence was a good thing, as it could at least protect the Zhao family members to some extent.

The demons then dispersed, and Ji Cheng transformed into a peregrine falcon, preparing to fly away.

"Wang Wang Wang!"

Suddenly, Dahuang pounced on Ji Cheng like a vicious dog. It was furious and recognized Ji Cheng as the peregrine falcon that had defecated on its head that night.

Ji Cheng laughed loudly, flapped his wings and flew high, quickly leaving Da Huang behind.

Da Huang returned to Wuzhen, back to the Zhao family mansion, and obediently put the collar back on his neck.

Zhao Kun sensed it with his divine sense but ignored it.

He had already obtained the bones from Dahuang, and now Dahuang was just an ordinary monster. If it posed no threat to him or the Zhao family, he wouldn't bother with it.

……

Another morning.

When Ji Cheng arrived at the Niu family martial arts school, A Niu fed him a few pancakes and pickled vegetables as usual.

Last night, the two were playing in Python Mountain in their demon beast forms. Today, they have both transformed into human form. However, Ji Cheng knows that he is a bull demon, while A Niu does not know that Ji Cheng is Brother Chicken.

Ji Cheng sighed again, thankful for the title of "Heavenly Chicken Must Not Be Revealed," otherwise his human identity would have been discovered by the two great demons.

Before long, Hou Jiang arrived, and Ji Cheng went up to greet him: "Good morning, Senior Brother Hou Jiang."

Hou Jiang waved his hands repeatedly and stepped back, saying, "Junior Brother Er Gou, please stop challenging me to sparring. I have realized the difference in our strength; I am no match for you!"

After several sparring matches, Hou Jiang was completely defeated by Ji Cheng and did not want to humiliate himself any further.

Ji Cheng paused for a moment, then gave an awkward laugh and said, "Senior brother, I was just saying hello to you. I didn't mean to challenge you to a duel, haha."

Having already broken through to the mid-stage of Qi and Blood, he indeed had no intention of continuing to spar with Hou Jiang; he was merely offering a friendly greeting, but Hou Jiang misunderstood him.

"Tu Ergou, what kind of skill is it to bully Hou Jiang? Do you dare to spar with me?"

At this moment, one of the disciples couldn't stand it anymore and stood up to defend Hou Jiang.

This man is named Luo Liang. He has been a student at the martial arts school for half a year and is said to be close to breaking through to the middle stage of Qi and Blood.

Ji Cheng's eyes lit up. "Great! There's something that's been delivered to our doorstep!"

Although my cultivation level is higher than Luo Liang's, this sparring match was initiated by Luo Liang, so don't blame me for winning unfairly, hehehe.

"Senior Brother Luo, I've only been a disciple for a month. How could I dare to bully Senior Brother Hou Jiang? My interaction with Senior Brother Hou Jiang was just a normal sparring match between disciples. You can ask Senior Brother Hou Jiang if you don't believe me."

Ji Cheng deliberately feigned weakness while concealing his mid-stage Qi and Blood realm.

Seeing his explanation, Luo Liang naturally assumed he was afraid and immediately replied, "My sparring with you was just a normal exchange between disciples. I didn't use any force. What, you're scared?"

Zhao Yan stood in front of Ji Cheng and spoke up for him, saying that Luo Liang had been a student at the martial arts school for half a year, and it was inappropriate for him to bully Er Gou, a junior brother who had just entered the school.

Ji Cheng tugged at her from behind, signaling with his eyes that she shouldn't get involved.

He observed that Luo Liang had the potential to exploit him, and he wanted to find a way to extract more points from him.

Ji Cheng accepted the challenge, and soon, with many disciples watching, a martial arts competition began.

Luo Liang stomped the ground and leaped forward, unleashing a powerful and sweeping Bull Demon Fist, his blood and qi seemingly touching the edge of the mid-stage of Qi and Blood cultivation. Ji Cheng deliberately held back, fighting Luo Liang to a standstill, making the situation on the field incredibly dramatic and exciting.

Finally, he deliberately used a move from the "Tiger Roar Killing Fist" to strike Luo Liang in the chest, defeating him.

"What kind of boxing style is that?"

Luo Liang clutched his chest tightly, his internal energy surging violently, clearly indicating that he was seriously injured.

But he was unconvinced, feeling that Ji Cheng hadn't defeated him using the "Bull Demon Fist," so this victory didn't count.

Ji Cheng quickly stepped forward to apologize, saying, "Oh dear, I'm sorry, Senior Brother Luo. I was forced into a corner and subconsciously used another fist technique. How about this, Senior Brother Luo, after you have recovered for a few days, we can spar again. I promise that I will only use the 'Bull Demon Fist' then."

Since we've already secured the victory, the outcome of this match, in name only, is no longer important.

Ji Cheng deliberately gave the other party a reason, in order to pave the way for the next sparring session.

Seeing that Ji Cheng's attitude was quite good, Luo Liang couldn't show his anger, so he just nodded emphatically and said "good".

The disciples around them looked at each other in bewilderment.

No one expected that Tu Ergou, who had only been a beginner for a little over a month, would be able to defeat Luo Liang, who had been a beginner for half a year.

Hou Jiang, in particular, felt a sudden sense of relief.

He recently discovered that he always lost by half a move when sparring with Tu Ergou, which he found rather strange.

Now that he saw that Tu Ergou had actually defeated Senior Brother Luo Liang, he was certain that Tu Ergou hadn't used his full strength at all.

He was puzzled. Why would Tu Ergou do this? Did he simply enjoy the glory of defeating him?
"You've become so amazing?"

Zhao Yan was surprised that Ji Cheng could defeat Luo Liang. She had been worried for Ji Cheng during the fight.

Ji Cheng laughed and said, "Hehe, I knew it. Frequent sparring with senior brothers helps improve strength. A strong person should be forged through countless battles. From now on, you shouldn't stop me from doing this anymore."

"What are you implying? That I ruined your plans?"

Zhao Yan's eyes widened. She hadn't expected that her good intentions would be met with such indifference. She said irritably, "Fine, I won't care if you get beaten to death from now on!"

Ji Cheng tried to explain that wasn't what he meant, but Zhao Yan turned away angrily and ignored him.

Of course, her anger only lasted for a short while.

In the evening, when Ji Cheng walked out of the martial arts school, he found Zhao Yan waiting for him at the door.

Zhao Yan saw him, turned around and walked ahead without saying a word.

Seeing this, Ji Cheng smiled and chased after her, lowering his posture slightly, admitting his mistake and explaining, which quickly made Zhao Yan laugh.

The two returned to the Zhao residence side by side.

"Second Master, I'm here again. How are you feeling today?"

Ji Cheng was the first to arrive at the backyard and greeted Second Master Zhao.

He noticed that Master Zhao seemed to dislike him somewhat recently, and wondered if he hadn't been caring enough about Master Zhao.

Master Zhao glanced at him indifferently: "Get lost!"

He lies in a chair like a dead man every day, unable to move at all. You can imagine how good his mood must be.

"Father, how can you talk like that?"

Zhao Yan's voice rang out, and she shielded Ji Cheng behind her. Zhao Erye immediately became obedient.

Master Zhao chuckled dryly and said, "Hehe, Yan'er, I'm cursing that Big Yellow."

rhubarb:"??????"

Zhao Yan glared at him, "You'd better be cursing Da Huang."

Ji Cheng then went to Da Huang's side and stroked Da Huang's head, neck, and back. Da Huang seemed to enjoy it, wagging its tail vigorously at Ji Cheng and rubbing against his thigh.

At this moment, Zhao Kun coughed and came out of the house.

Ji Cheng clearly felt Da Huang's body stiffen. He patted Da Huang's head hard to ease Da Huang's tension.

"Ergou, you seem to really like Dahuang?"

Zhao Kun glanced at Ji Cheng.

"Yes, I have a special connection with dogs. When I was a child, besides my grandfather, the only other person in my family was a big yellow dog. I have always loved cats, dogs, rabbits and the like."

Ji Cheng replied.

Zhao Yan chimed in, saying that she loved animals since she was a child, and that she cried her eyes out the night when her family's fighting rooster went missing.

Zhao Kun nodded. He couldn't see anything unusual about Tu Ergou and figured he just liked cats and dogs.

"Kun Kun, since you cured your strange illness by practicing boxing, why don't you go to the Niu Family Martial Arts School to learn martial arts? If you train with Master Niu for a while, your body will definitely become healthier and healthier. Look at me, I've been training at the martial arts school for more than a month and I've become much stronger."

While both Master Zhao and Second Master Zhao were present, Ji Cheng suddenly suggested that Zhao Kun go to the Niu family martial arts school to learn martial arts.

He then showed off the muscles in his arms. Since he started practicing boxing, the changes in his body were visible to the naked eye, as if he had been reborn.

He seemed to be doing this for Zhao Kun's own good, but in reality, he wanted Zhao Kun to go to the fifth-tier demon and see if Master Niu could see through the identity of the person who had possessed his body.
