Success

As the rumors said, the first two fights indeed featured three slave cultivators with 'Beast Taming' skills.

All the slave who fought were Heaven stage Experts—and as for the one who had no contracted demonic beast, he eventually lost his match.

So far the contracted demonic beasts that appeared in the matches were Poison 'Blood Python,' Fire 'Dire Wolf,' and Earth 'Giant Scorpion.'

And upon observing the first two fights, Qai learned that spectators loved to watch more those slave cultivators with contracted demonic beasts since fights among them were indeed fun to watch—and that explained why such underground event seemed to sell a lot.

"Our next match," a Sage cultivator in the middle of the arena announced, "the 'Feline Fist' versus the 'Wretched Arrow'."

After the names were called, Feng Lan as well as her opponent went on the platform.

The slave cultivator called 'Wretched Arrow,' meanwhile appeared with a contracted 'Rock Falcon' with Earth attribute on his shoulders but the slave himself had Wind elemental affinity and was at initial Heaven stage of the Expert realm.

**************

A couple or days earlier, Feng Lan keenly learned from Qai different ways to win against two opponents with one of them using long ranged attacks.

"Take down the long ranged user first," Qai strictly instructed.

One of the more effective ways Qai taught was to use the movement skill towards the cultivator who had long ranged skills and unleash against that cultivator the most potent skill.

"Then move away from the two of them, again, using your movement skill," Qai said. "It may be exhausting, but that way your two opponents will not be able to catch you."

Qai further explained that Feng Lan's physical constitution together with her 'Flare' skill would definitely make it difficult for her enemies to follow her movements.

"You will have to be mobile at all times," Qai said. "If you could keep your 'Ignition' continuously activated throughout the fight, then there's no way your opponent can match your speed."

Such technique would definitely be taxing for any Expert cultivator but with Feng Lan's Tiger bloodline, she definitely had the bodily energy to cope with it.

**************

"Let the match begin!" The announcer yelled.

Feng Lan knew, by just hearing her opponent's name, that the slave cultivator called 'Wretched Arrow' uses bow like her 'master.'

And without further dawdle, Feng Lan disappeared from where she stood and seemed like she made use of teleportation technique. However, one could see clearly the burst of Fire element left on the ground—it was only a movement skill; but it was just that Feng Lan had an insane speed.

She actually activated her 'Flare' skill and appeared right before her opponent's face emitting with half-step Sage Qi aura.

Right there and then, she infused her gauntlet's with Fire element and instantly activated her 'Flame Fist,' obviously not giving an inch of opportunity to her opponent to fight back.

'Thud,' 'thud,' thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' 'thud.'

The slave cultivator called 'Wretched Arrow' apparently were not able to retaliate at the sudden attack. As a matter of fact, he wasn't even able to exhibit his bow.

And at the end of Feng Lan's last punch, the opponent was practically thrown out of the stage.

'Baaaaam.'

The crowd was stunned at the sight of the ferocious style of the Qai's slave cultivator.

Feng Lan then disappeared again and reappeared behind the confused 'Rock Falcon' that was flying in mid air. And once again released a dozen of fist strikes towards the contracted demonic beast.

'Thud,' 'thud,' thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' 'thud,' 'thud.'

'Baaaaam.'

Just the same, the contracted demonic beast was thrown outside the platform and banged on the ground seemingly gasping for air.

There was silence in the crowd.

Apparently, the entire fight only took less than a minute.

'Is that slave really only at half-step Sage realm!?' Many thought to themselves.

In one corner of the arena, the slave master of 'Wretched Arrow' was seen to be shaking his head at the sight of his slave losing the match. He obviously spent a lot just on his slave cultivator alone only to end up losing big time to an unfamiliar slave.

Unknown to knowledge of the spectators, apart from the naturally strong physical constitution of Feng Lan due to her Tiger bloodline, she also activated her 'Ignition' from the start of the fight—and not to mention that she was wearing a quality Sage level inner armor.

Eventually, such combination, without a doubt, made her strength multiplied by leaps and bounds.

Qai enlisted his slave cultivator for two more matches that day and eventually got the same result. But what was more gainful for Qai was that he actually wagered half of his 'Spirit Stones' in the next two matches which actually doubled the entire 'Spirit Stones' he brought in his adventure.

Qai immediately bought the famed 'Berserk' skill after Feng Lan's matches that day and handed it over to her together with bunch of Qi cultivating Pills.

"This should further make you stronger," Qai said with a smile.

"I guess I should hurry breakthrough to Sage realm then," Feng Lan replied in gratitude.

The 'Feline's Fist's' fame eventually spread like wildfire among the circle of the slave masters in the 'Shadow' territory.

Inside the Thousand Treasure Pavilion, meanwhile, a cultivator had just finished reporting something interesting to his superior.

"'Feline Fist,' eh!?"
