Chapter 71: telescopic sight

Xiao Zuiji won and the 64th match of Round 2 was over. 

Adding up the winners of all four zones, there were 64 people left. 

Before entering the third round, there was a break.

The people who could enter the next round were essentially all Meridian Opening Stage Twelve the future matches would only get more intense. 

But after starting, as long as it was the Ironbone Sect onstage, the match would not be intense at all, because Lu Qianqian and the others would cleanly knock their opponent out. 

Even Xiao Zuiji, purely depending on his physical strength, was able to circle behind the opponent, grab the opponent by the waist, arch his back in a suplex throw and slam the opponents head into the ground. His opponents lost just as quickly.

The appraisal given by the experts in the crowd? 

Barbaric!

Fuck me! Su Xiaomo was startled too. Junior Brother Xiao is so strong!

Li Qingyang seriously said, Junior Brother spends 20 hours in the training room every day, we are nowhere near his level.

Xiao Zuijis strong physical body was only partially because of the Muscle Molding Room. The other half was because of the Basic Body Reconstructing Pill. 

At this moment, every inch of his flesh had been tempered through blood and sweat. 

Within the short span of ten days, Jun Changxiao had built Xiao Zuiji into a person with monstrous physical strength. Not only did he not fear hits, he could explode with power. 

This was victory won through training, this was his disciple. 

No spiritual power? No spiritual root?

My apologies, we can still punch until you die, hit until you suspect life. 

[Ding! Five disciples entered the fourth round, the Epic Mission is at 30% completion. The host has obtained 20 contribution points.]

[Ding! Sect Contribution: 102/500.]

Looking at the value exceeding 100 for the first time, Jun Changxiao was exhilarated. 

I can refresh the system store, look for new things.

[Ding! Sect Contribution: 92/500.]

Jun Changxiao refreshed the low-grade items list and immediately, new goods were presented.

However, his mouth twitched after seeing the very first item Modified 8x Telescopic Sight. 

Theres even scopes and other attachments!

He clicked on the details.

[Item: Modified 8x Telescopic Sight

Description: Used for looking at distant sites. This has a magnifying effect, allowing users to see and identify targets. Most suitable for long-range adjusted fire. 

Effect: Can be attached to precision or sniper’s rifles. After activation, it will automatically lock on to targets within range.

Effectiveness: Permanent

Limitations: After being used, there is a 1 hour cooldown.

Price: 20 contribution points]

Seeing the description, Jun Changxiao was dumbfounded. The scope will automatically lock onto a target, how is this different from a cheat?

The system said: [The host has transmigrated and opened the Strongest Sect System, that is equivalent to a cheat.]

If you say it like that

Yes, yes, you are right.

Jun Changxiao asked, What is it? You dont recommend it?

The system responded, [This scope can only be used with precision rifles and sniper rifles. Those items have a low chance of appearing, so it is not recommended for the host to buy the scope.]

So you still have a conscience, commented Jun Changxiao.

He continued to scroll through the items and found that, unfortunately, most of the items were useless to him.

Okay then

All the luck had been used up.

Since there wasnt anything good this time, Jun Changxiao was definitely not going to refresh again with such bad luck today, he wouldnt get anything good no matter how many times he refreshed.

The system added, [Each time the list is refreshed, the host must purchase at least one item before it can be refreshed again.]

This is bullshit! Jun Changxiao yelled out. I had to spend 10 contribution points on this list of useless trash, but I have to buy something before I can get a new list? This is too much!

He said that, but he was actually considering which item to buy. Which of these gaudy and useless items should he choose?

Whatever, lets just buy the telescopic sight. If my luck is good, perhaps Ill find a rifle later on.

[Sniper rifles have a 1% chance of showing up in the low-grade list. May the host carefully consider.]

What about precision rifles?

[5%.]

What about the Modified 8x Telescopic Sight?

[ 0.1%]

Jun Changxiaos eyes widened. You motherfucker, this thing is even more rare than the rifles! Whats the point of reconsidering? I must buy it!

He did not hesitate and clicked purchase.

[Ding! The host has spent 20 contribution points, obtaining Modified 8x Telescopic Sight x1. The item has been transported to the storage ring.]

[Ding! Sect Contribution: 82/500.] 

Jun Changxiao summoned the scope and used it to look around. The distant objects were immediately magnified, so much so that he could see the beads of sweat on the participants.

Although without a rifle to attach it to, he was unable to use the target-locking function, but he could just use it as a regular telescope. 

The Great Red Elder curiously looked over again. Sect Head Jun, that long and thick thing in your hand, what is that?

Toy, Jun Changxiao thoughtlessly answered.

He regretted the words almost immediately and was a bit ashamed. Since he asked like that, it makes my answer seem a little dirty.

Fourth round first match, Lu Qianqian versus Xi Honglei!

On the stage, the referee announced the fourth round was beginning. 

Jun Changxiao aimed the scope at Lu Qianqian. 

Under magnification, the face of that young woman was still perfect. He could not help but say, There is a beauty in the northern lands, who stands alone without peers. One look from her and cities fall, another look and empires collapse.

That was a verse from a song created by Li Yannian during the Han Dynasty. Using it to describe Lu Qianqian was very apt. [1]

Begin! yelled the referee.

Xi Honglei obviously knew Lu Qianqian had vast spiritual power. Therefore, he quickly displayed footwork Or not, because he hadnt even started to walk before he was surrounded by waves of spiritual energy. 

Martial Apprentice!

That woman is absolutely a Martial Apprentice!

Seeing how a Meridian Opening Stage Twelve had been pushed off stage once again, many of the higher-realm cultivators had an approximate guess on Lu Qianqians cultivation. 

Jun Changxiao was observing through the scope. She really has entered into the Martial Apprentice Realm.

Why was it entered?

Because she truly hadnt been in that realm before.

The Tendon Altering Sutra was only useful at the Meridian Opening Realm.

Since that woman had cultivated it, she had to have been in the Meridian Opening Realm. At the time of fighting the Earthly Flame Wolf, she was around Li Qingyang in strength. 

Then the conclusion was before the hell-like cultivation period, Lu Qianqians true strength was at Meridian Opening Stage Twelve!

Sect Head Jun. The Great Red Gates elder smiled as he said, Your honorable disciple has hidden herself deeply. In my opinion, Zone C will hold no suspense,

The various experts also believed this, since after easily sweeping three opponents off the stage, her spiritual power was definitely great!

Jun Changxiao said, This Lord cares little for first place in a zone, but wants the true first place.

The Great Red Gate elder shook his head, nodding toward the youth in gray robes, who was currently in Zone B. That one is called Zhang Linghe, a disciple of the sixth-rate Yingwu Sect. Hes a Martial Apprentice and one of the crowd favorites.

Oh? Jun Changxiao lifted the scope to look and discovered that the guy was young, the corners of his mouth lifted into an unruly smirk. The same zone as Little Mo. Judging from his number, they should meet in the zone finals.

The Great Red Gate elder then pointed to Xiao Linye. That is a Xiao Family direct descendant, the disciple of the sixth-rate Sound Valley Sect. He is similarly a top contender.

Fuck.

Jun Changxiao only just discovered that this Xiao Family descendant was in Zone D.

At present, Zone D still had eight people remaining. Based on the number plates, he and Xiao Zuiji would definitely meet in the next round!

The cousins were together, that was some fate

Fourth round sixth match, Bei Jian versus Xiao Zuiji!

Jun Changxiao turned with his scope and quickly saw the guy from earlier, the one who spoke nonsense at the inn entrance and had that terrible mantra, step onto the stage. 

Fucking hell. 

That guy was also in Zone D!

I get angry just looking at him. Zuiji, maliciously beat this guy up for this Lord, beat him so badly he becomes unlovable!

[1] Song of the Northern Beauty or Jiaren Qu is a short song written by Li Yannian about his sister during the rule of Emperor Wu of Han. 

There is a beauty in the northern lands, Who stands alone without peers. One look from her and cities fall, Another look and empires collapse. Care not whether cities fall or empires collapse, For such beauty never comes around twice!
