Chapter 176
Jiang Chen started to detoxify the poison after getting rid of the assassination team.
The killers of the Black White School had claimed how lethal their poison was, but Jiang Chen didn’t take it seriously. He knew if the poison were really that fatal, the killers wouldn’t have had to shoot such a great amount at him.
This kind of poison, which aimed to improve its lethality by amount, was the easiest one to detoxify.
It was true. He had taken a few antidotes to hold down the poison and learned its toxicity. At that moment, he used a silver needle to make the poison flow to his right index finger.
As the black, smelly poisoned blood flew out, the painful feeling also disappeared, then the white tiger dashed towards him like a gust of wind.
The white tiger was there when he was deploying the tactical formation the day before, so when it heard Jiang Chen’s words, it immediately understood what he meant.
It was ridiculous that the killers thought the white tiger had given Jiang Chen up.
No one knew what the Natural Law School was up to.
Soon, people in the Fire Field stopped following the news of Jiang Chen and turned their attention to the competition held by the Sacred Institution.
According to the latest news, the date of the competition was set on the day Autumn Begins. It would be held in the capital of the Xia Dynasty.
Anyone under the age of thirty could take part in it, regardless of gender or background.
It was also said that although only the top three winners could get into the Sacred Institute, those who had outstanding performances, but a lower state at the time due to lack of resources or being too young, also had a chance to make it in.
Many people were cheered up by the news.
Everyone thought themselves the unique one, especially those poor kids who weren’t as good as kids from big families due to a lack of resources.
All of them wanted to seize the opportunity to show their mettle.
Gradually, people seemed to have forgotten about Jiang Chen. He was like a shooting star that had once appeared in the Fire Field, then disappeared.
After some more time, no one would recall his name any more.
That was how the world worked.
The first death was the death of one’s body, then there comes the real death—when one is completely forgotten by the world.
In the City of Bear in the Realm of Beasts…
The city turned into debris after the monsters tramped through it. Many houses collapsed, including the house where Jiang Chen was hiding.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from under the ruins, as if something was knocking. It became louder and louder, and a hole appeared in the ruins. Before it collapsed again, two figures crawled out of it rapidly.
“How dangerous.”
Jiang Chen brushed the dust off his coat, but he soon found it was unnecessary, since he was dusty all over.
As the white tiger shook its body, the dust flew around.
Without a word, they came to the fountain in the square. The fountain was already run-down, but still jetting out water.
Jiang Chen washed himself and sat down, exhausted.
After a while, he thought about his current situation and opened his mouth.
“Third Prince, I’ll kill you for sure.”
