I was favored by the evil god, and I became a white-bone bodhisattva.

"He went to check the situation."

Gang Leader He's expression changed and he quickly walked up to the core disciples to ask them.

"Boss, the holy object moved just now. We couldn't catch it, so we could only pretend to fall down." A disciple quickly explained in a low voice.

The old man didn't say anything, but he knew in his heart that an extremely powerful evil creature must have appeared around him.

But since the movement of the holy object only lasted for a moment, the evil creature must have been scared away.

"Boss, should the competition continue?" asked one of the most senior core disciples worriedly.

Being strong doesn't mean you're good at dealing with evil creatures. You can deal with straightforward and reckless evil creatures, but for other types, you can only hope for the power of holy objects.

"Of course we will continue. With Master Tangtang here, what are we afraid of?"

These words seem to weaken one's own prestige, but they are best used to calm people's hearts at this time.

"Boss, that guru must have real abilities to have such a great reputation, but how good are her abilities?"

At this question, all the core disciples pricked up their ears, and it was obvious that they were very curious.

"He is unfathomable. He might be the top ascender."

......

Although the antique rope was brought out early, not all contestants used this rope in the competition.

In fact, it will only officially come on stage during the finals to bless the final winner.

Under the cloak, the faint Buddha's light completely enveloped his body, and Xiaobai came to his opponent slowly.

The rope was very sensitive and it was about to explode as soon as it sensed something was wrong.

If the Buddha's light had not appeared in time to blind its perception, the entire tug-of-war game would have been in chaos.

“Come on, come on—”

The little girl's voice came from the viewing area. Xiaobai gathered his composure and began to wrestle with the disciple of the Bantan Gang.

"Man in the Cloak, I support you. Kill the arrogance of the Bantan Gang!"

Perhaps the strength of the Bantan Gang aroused the subconscious confrontational emotions of the crowd. Although Xiaobai was dressed strangely, most of the ordinary audiences were cheering for him.

Pulling the rope and retreating steadily, Xiaobai soon pulled his opponent completely over.

"it is good!"

Seeing that the cloaked man was a powerful person, everyone cheered.

'This person is quite strong'

Boss He also noticed Xiaobai, but he was not too worried.

Among all the contestants, fully half are from the Bantan Gang, so it is extremely difficult for outsiders to win the championship.

Furthermore, a strong person may not necessarily have good endurance.

After three rounds of competition, it is an all-round competition of strength, skills, endurance and recovery. A small tug-of-war game is not that simple.

......

In fact, there was no need to wait until the third round. After two rounds, the entire arena was almost completely occupied by the disciples of the Bantan Gang.

Seeing this, Fang Yan couldn't help but ask the old man, "Boss He, who was it that fought through the siege and won the tug-of-war competition in Wuwei City a few years ago?"

"Haha, Mr. He, look to the front left. Yes, that's the one who's judging the [Mysterious Cloaked Man]."

Hearing this, Fang Yan was stunned.

"Didn't they say that the winner was not a disciple of the Bantan Gang?" Qin Sixian was also puzzled: "I saw many people swearing that they said so."

"At that time, my nephew had not yet joined the gang, and was indeed not considered a disciple of the Bantan Gang. Later, I saw that he was a promising talent, so I spent a lot of effort to get him into the gang." Gang leader He said with a smile.

"..."

You are such a bad old man!

Fang Yan resisted the urge to roll his eyes and cheered loudly for the cloaked man.

Still in that unhurried manner, the cloaked man slowly retreated, pulling the thick rope.

Each of his steps was very steady, and his calmness revealed the demeanor of a strong man.

"Well, we win again!"

Seeing that the cloaked man won one after another and his physical strength did not decrease at all, Gang Leader He finally felt a little worried.

'Where does this guy come from? If he is also a man who makes a living by physical strength, I can recruit him into the gang.'

'but......'

No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t look like it!

The old man winked at several core disciples in the field and asked them to go and find out the guy's background.

Unexpectedly, when the audience saw a group of disciples of the Bantan Gang walking towards the cloaked man in a menacing manner, they immediately booed.

"Boss He, you can't play dirty in this open tug-of-war competition." Fang Yan said with his eyes wide open.

"Yeah," the little girl nodded repeatedly.

"Misunderstanding, Master misunderstood."

Gang Leader He quickly said, "They didn't mean anything else. They just wanted to ask that hero if he wanted to join our gang."

.......

Under the dual pressure from the audience and Tangtang, Gang Leader He had to put his thoughts aside for the time being.

The competition continued, and the strangely dressed man in the cloak lived up to everyone's expectations. He fought his way out of the siege and made it to the finals.

At this time, the antique rope finally came in handy. When Xiaobai reached out to grab it, thanks to the protection of the Buddha's light, there was no rejection reaction.

"Three, two, one, start!"

As the countdown sounded, Xiaobai felt a force far beyond that of an ordinary person coming from the opposite side.

The disciples of the Bantan Gang who made it to the finals are all core candidates, and their own strength is already extraordinary.

The situation was deadlocked for a while, and the atmosphere in the venue reached its peak at this time.

"Won" Tangtang suddenly concluded.

"Which side will win?" Fang Yan asked quickly.

The little girl pointed at the cloaked contestant with a smile, and sure enough, after a moment, the mysterious cloaked man pulled his opponent over with force.

And just when Xiaobai was about to win completely, a powerful force was transmitted into his body from the antique rope.

Chapter 253: Having fun alone is not as good as having fun with everyone

Xiaobai didn't know that there would be such benefits in winning the singles competition, but since the power was offered to him, he naturally accepted it with a smile.

Xiaobai was overjoyed as he felt the pure and primitive [power] surging through his body.

"Brother, please come up to the stage to receive your award." The core disciple who served as the referee in the last round of the competition said with a smile.

The final winner was not the Bantan Gang member, and he was undoubtedly disappointed and unwilling.

However, under the watchful eyes of the public, necessary demeanor must be maintained.

Besides, the gang leader will definitely try to win this person over, and it's not long before he joins his gang.

Three large open boxes were placed on the podium, filled with golden copper coins.

For a folk competition, this reward is definitely generous.

Copper coins are of no use to Xiaobai, and Tangtang is not short of money.

It thought of the many spectators cheering it on from the sidelines, so it picked up a wooden box with one hand and patted the bottom of the box gently.

There is a saying that goes, happiness shared with others is worse than happiness alone.

slam-la-

Copper coins were flying all over the sky and soon fell like raindrops. What a copper coin rain!

The cheerful atmosphere spread quickly. No one expected that they could get paid for watching the game.

"Another box!"

"God of Wealth, another box!"

As everyone picked up the money, they started to make a noise and chatter.

Xiaobai was also very happy. The second and third times, the copper coins rained down one after another.

"Brother, you are so generous. Could you please come to Wangyue Tower to chat with me? Let's drink together and make friends."

Facing the invitation from the Bantan Gang disciples, Xiaobai waved his hand and strode out of the arena.

The former was of course very unwilling and kept chasing it into the alley.

"Brother, I really have no ill intentions, it's just..."

The man's words came to an abrupt end, because as a white light flew out, the cloaked man shrank completely.

He was stunned for a moment, then he cautiously stepped forward, lifted the cloak and took a look.

Inside, there was nothing.

.........

"Sixian, everyone in the academy misses you very much, but they are unable to visit you due to restrictions imposed by their elders. Please make time to show up tomorrow, so that everyone can feel at ease."

Qin Sixian hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

She had been angry before, but perhaps as Fang Yan said, the sisters did not want to come, but they really could not come.

"How has my story spread in the academy?" Miss Qin suddenly asked with a frown.

"Well, there are many theories. But if you show up tomorrow, the rumors will die down," Fang Yan said vaguely with a dry laugh.

"Okay, then we'll see you tomorrow."

A simple sentence of "see you tomorrow" made Mr. Fang stupid.

How stupid?

He looked at Qin Sixuan infatuatedly and smiled like a fool.

Seeing Fang Yan like this, Qin Sixian also smiled.

Although I don't have any feelings towards him, I don't hate him that much either.

The next morning, Miss Qin dressed up, got on a carriage, and arrived at Jinxiu Academy accompanied by her parents.

At first she didn't understand why her parents took the initiative to follow her. It was not until the dean who came to greet her persuaded her to go back and have a good rest that she realized the impact of the evil spirit possessing her was so huge.

"Humph, the evil spirit was driven away by Master Tangtang of Sang Country a long time ago, and my daughter has recovered as before. She is coming to the academy to meet her friends today. Will you let her in or not?"

Seeing that Mr. Qin was really angry and that Qin Sixuan had been behaving normally, the dean smiled and invited the latter in.

After this incident, Miss Qin was very worried.

Fortunately...

"Sixian, I missed you so much. You're finally back."

"Tell us what the evil spirit looks like. Does it have a green face and fangs, and is it extremely scary?"

Everyone talked and Qin Sixian's tense nerves finally relaxed.

After she talked about her experience in a casual tone, she suddenly felt that something was missing.

"Why don't you see Fang Yan?"

..........

"Humph, you are so hypocritical and innocent."

A disdainful voice was heard, and Qin Sixian knew it was his mortal enemy without turning around.

It is impossible for a place where girls gather together to be harmonious. It would be strange if they did not form large or small groups.

Therefore, Qin Sixuan does not have all her friends in the academy. Miss Hua Qiaodie has always been at odds with her.
