I’ve already become a titled Douluo, and only now the system arrives?

Chapter 90: Setting off to the City of Slaughter, with the Aim to Poison

"Huang Yuan, Jing Ling, step forward!"

Just as Oscar guessed, Zhao Wuji's deep voice immediately sounded.

Oh no.

Being singled out by this demon surely doesn't bode well.

Both of them trembled with a sense of foreboding.

"Today, the two of you will have to complete double the training target. If you fail, no dinner for you."

What!

Huang Yuan and Jing Ling's faces turned pale.

They knew that a day's training was already their limit; to double it...

It would surely cost them their lives.

"If you don't like it, too bad! Being cocky isn't against the law!"

"Got it? Are you still dissatisfied?"

Zhao Wuji's eyebrows furrowed, "If you don't work hard, I'll make it triple the training target!"

"No, Teacher Zhao, please have mercy on us, spare our lives."

"We'll start the double training target right away."

Huang Yuan and Jing Ling reluctantly agreed.

At the same time, they realized that they were being punished with extra training because of their smart mouths, mocking someone they shouldn't have.

Cruel.

It turns out that person can be this domineering.

They felt a pang of regret, but there was no regret medicine left.

"Now, besides Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran, everyone else can start today's training."

"Dai Mubai, you lead."

Zhao Wuji's voice resounded once again.

However, Dai Mubai remained motionless, his mind wandering elsewhere.

Qin Xiao, what is he planning to do with Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran?

My mind's in turmoil.

"Dai Mubai, I'm talking to you. Are you listening?"

At this moment, Zhao Wuji's voice rang out again, finally snapping Dai Mubai out of his reverie.

"I understand."

Dai Mubai gritted his teeth and said, then left without looking back.

In a moment, only Zhu Zhuqing, Meng Yiran...
Uh.
And Ning Rongrong remained.

Frowning, Zhao Wuji looked at her, "Why are you staying?"

"Teacher Zhao, I also want to stay and watch, please."

Ning Rongrong said, making a pleading gesture.

Considering Ning Rongrong's relationship with Qin Xiao, Zhao Wuji reluctantly agreed.

"Everyone is here, saves me from going around looking for you individually."

Qin Xiao looked at the crowd, a hint of a smile on his face.

"My liege, may I ask what your arrangements are?"

Zhao Wuji asked.

"I intend to give Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran some time off and take them outside for some solo training."

After Qin Xiao finished speaking, he looked at Liu Erlong and Flender, asking, "Is that okay with you?"

"Of course."

Flender had no objections.

Liu Erlong hesitated for a moment before asking, "I wonder how long your return will be?"

Of course, it wasn't that she didn't want Qin Xiao to take them for training, but Yu Xiaogang was already on his way to Tian Dou City.

She was eager for Qin Xiao to treat Yu Xiaogang's injuries.

"Short, three to six months; long, one or two years."

Qin Xiao thought for a moment before giving a serious answer.

"What, so long?"

Liu Erlong widened her eyes.

To be honest, this time exceeded Liu Erlong's expectations.

"No, I want to go with you too!"

Beside them, Ning Rongrong, upon hearing Qin Xiao's words, anxiously said.

If she were separated from Qin Xiao for so long, wouldn't all the yellow flowers wilt by then?
Maybe when Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran return, they'll already have children!

"You?"

Qin Xiao pondered for a moment, then shook his head, "Better not. The place I'm going is extremely dangerous, only Soul Masters are qualified to go."

Soul Master?
Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong's face changed, how would her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda fight? Using it to hammer people?

Therefore, her combat power was almost zero.

The conditions Qin Xiao gave were clearly meant to dissuade her.

"Isn't a Soul Master in need of assistance?"

"My Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is quite powerful; I can assist."

Ning Rongrong insisted on showing her worth, hoping to be noticed by Qin Xiao.

Unfortunately.

It was to no avail.

Qin Xiao's answer was ruthless, "Heh, you see, the place I'm taking them to doesn't need any assistance."

Uh. Ning Rongrong was speechless once again, it seemed that Qin Xiao was deliberately rejecting her, right?

Fine!
Then I'm leaving!
"Never mind, I won't bother you anymore."

She waved

her hand and walked away from the academy, feeling sulky.

Qin Xiao saw this and smiled faintly.

Not to mention, letting Ning Rongrong eat a loss was quite amusing.

However, he quickly suppressed his smile. He faced Meng Yiran and Zhu Zhuqing and said, "The place I'm taking you to is extremely dangerous, with the risk of death at any moment. Even I may not be able to protect you. However, if you can endure it, there will be tremendous improvement in your strength."

"Now I'll give you a chance to choose. If anyone feels afraid, you can choose to quit, and I won't blame you."

Qin Xiao believed that only through life-and-death trials could one's strength improve rapidly.

After all, he also had to go to the City of Slaughter. Taking them along for training was like killing two birds with one stone.

As for the fact that their strength was somewhat lacking... But he, Qin Xiao, was strong enough.

Even if he couldn't use soul skills, he was confident in getting out with both of them alive.

After a brief silence, Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran nodded almost simultaneously.

Even their voices sounded in unison, "Your Majesty, I'm willing!"

Meng Yiran carried the burden of her family's revenge.

Zhu Zhuqing also had the shame that needed to be washed away.

Both of them were extremely eager for an improvement in their strength.

So when Qin Xiao presented the opportunity to them, neither of them refused.

Qin Xiao nodded in satisfaction, "Good, since that's the case, let's set off now."

"So hastily?"

Everyone was taken aback.

"If we don't leave now, are we staying here for a feast?" Qin Xiao retorted.

Everyone was speechless.

Forget it.

Let it be!

Seven days later.

Outside a desolate town.

Qin Xiao, Zhu Zhuqing, and Meng Yiran stood still.

"My liege, is this the City of Slaughter you mentioned?" Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but ask.

Throughout the journey, Qin Xiao had given them careful guidance, allowing them to gain more combat experience. At the same time, he roughly described what the City of Slaughter was like.

"The entrance is in the town."

Qin Xiao nodded faintly, "Zhuqing, Yiran, remember what I told you. Once you enter the City of Slaughter, don't trust anyone and don't have any kindness in your heart!"

"Being kind to enemies is being cruel to oneself."

After listening to Qin Xiao's words, both girls nodded in agreement, showing deep understanding.

"Now put on the masks you prepared; beauty is a sin here."

Qin Xiao instructed again.

He didn't care, but in a place like this, even if you were a beauty.

Even if you were a pig, you would attract excessive attention.

Soon.

Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran followed Qin Xiao's instructions and put on their masks.

However, Qin Xiao found another problem.

Although their faces were covered, their distinctive figures still couldn't be ignored.

One was hot, the other was charming.

Even though their faces couldn't be seen, their allure was still evident.

"Never mind, consider it a kind of training for the two of them."

Qin Xiao decided not to worry about these things anymore.

Creak.

The old tavern, with its dilapidated wooden door, made a grating sound as it was pushed open.

As Qin Xiao and the others entered the tavern, the murky air rushed toward them.

In the dim light, there were at least twenty or thirty people scattered throughout the tavern.

The arrival of the three immediately caused a stir.

The noisy tavern immediately fell silent, and countless eyes fell on them, full of curiosity, confusion, scrutiny, and excitement.
A variety of complex gazes fell upon them.

"Hey hey, that little chick in the green clothes, that slender waist, I like it. Riding on her would definitely be enjoyable!"

A sloppy-looking man, about two meters tall, grinned.

"What a tasteless eye, that woman in black is obviously better."

Across from him, a man of similar build but unremarkable appearance licked his lips excitedly as he held a crimson liquid in his hand.

Not just his lips, but even the area around his lips was crimson.

Clang!

He casually threw the cup onto the table and strode toward Qin Xiao's group.

"Now it's already the City of Slaughter. Let's start the bloody slaughter journey."

At this moment, Qin Xiao's voice rang in the ears of the two girls.

Swoosh!
Zhu Zhuqing dashed forward like she had received a command from a starting gun, turning into a blur as she rushed towards the unremarkable man.

"These little girls have quite fiery tempers."

"I like it. Conquering someone like you gives a sense of accomplishment!"

He laughed ferociously, throwing a punch towards Zhu Zhuqing.

Although he didn't summon his martial soul, this punch was full of strength, making the air unbearable and emitting a buzzing sound.

From this, it could be seen that this person was also a powerful soul master.

"Too slow!"

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head slightly, making a move that even the big man found incredible.

The next moment, she leaped up, as light as a spirit cat, lightly landing on the big man's arm, using it as leverage to attack the big man's head.

It's over!

The unremarkable big man's pupils contracted, and Zhu Zhuqing's figure kept enlarging in his eyes.

Crack!

A knee strike hit him squarely on the forehead.

The unremarkable man seemed to lose all his strength, falling backward stiffly.

Thud!
The floor of the tavern seemed to tremble.

"What, he actually killed the boss!"

"And so quickly!"

The three men sitting with the big man were all astonished.

But at the next moment, they were attracted by another scream.

At some point, three sharp throwing knives were inserted into his forehead, throat, and chest respectively.

Everyone turned their eyes to Meng Yiran beside Qin Xiao, evidently this was all the work of the girl.

"Hiss."

"This little girl's strength is unexpectedly strong?"

"Let's attack together and take them down!"

Immediately, more people stood up and rushed towards Meng Yiran and Zhu Zhuqing.

At the same time, Qin Xiao's voice sounded again.

"Kill them all, and you'll get tickets to enter the City of Slaughter!"

"It's also the first step to officially start practicing in the City of Slaughter!"

In fact, before he finished speaking, the two girls had already started.

Zhu Zhuqing was like a ghost, each appearance resulting in the death of a person.

Meng Yiran was different.

She stood in place, with flashes of silver light constantly emanating from her body.

Those were the small and exquisite throwing knives.

And the technique of throwing these knives was not skilled, but the power was extremely strong, and the speed was extremely fast.

Completely different from Meng Yiran's previous style.

Because in these seven days, Qin Xiao said a sentence, "Invincible and fast as lightning!"

She had some enlightenment.

Thud.

Thud.

One after another, figures fell.

Qin Xiao silently calculated that it only took five breaths for the two girls to deal with twenty to thirty people.

"Clang clang clang."

He walked to the counter and said to the cowering waiter, "Open the passage; this slaughter is our qualification to enter the City of Slaughter."

"Okay, okay."

The waiter dared not hesitate and quickly activated the mechanism.

Boom!

The floor began to move on its own, and a dark passage appeared in front of the three.

"This is just a warm-up; the real game begins next."

Qin Xiao said, taking the lead to enter.

Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran didn't hesitate much either, and followed closely behind.

Phew.

After witnessing the departure of the three, the waiter suddenly remembered something, "No, I have to send a message to Lord Terror Knight, telling him that there is still one person who doesn't meet the rules to enter the City of Slaughter."

In the darkness, after walking for who knows how long, Qin Xiao finally saw a glimmer of light in front of him.

Faintly, the outline of a city appeared in his eyes.

Black walls, a black city, with a purple moon hanging over it. Looking up, everything was black, like the existence of a black night.

"Is this the City of Slaughter? It looks eerie and mysterious."

Meng Yiran's eyes showed a hint of confusion.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't speak, but her expression was similar to Meng Yiran's.

"Clang clang clang clang."

Suddenly, the sound of hooves and heavy footsteps came from ahead.

"Don't be nervous; the ones coming should be the guardians of the City of Slaughter."

Qin Xiao said, standing in front of the two.

Although Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran were in the darkness, they felt a brightness ahead.

Soon.

Hundreds of people appeared in front of Qin Xiao.

They were all dressed in black armor and wielded heavy swords.

Only one person was sitting on a tall warhorse. His horse was also covered in thick black armor.

"Why are the guardians of the City of Slaughter blocking our way?"

Qin Xiao frowned and asked.

"Because someone has violated the rules!"

The black-armored knight sitting on the warhorse said in a cold voice.

"Violated the rules?"

Qin Xiao was taken aback, "They obtained entry qualifications through slaughter. Is there a problem?"

"What about you?" the black-armored knight asked again.

Me?
Pfft!

Qin Xiao suddenly realized, indeed.

He had been too preoccupied with watching the excitement, completely forgetting that he was also an outsider.

"Trespasser, defeat me, and you will have the qualification to enter the City of Slaughter."

"No problem!" Qin Xiao nodded.

At this moment, the knight on horseback slowly raised his slender lance, "I—"

But before he could finish speaking, Qin Xiao impatiently waved his hand, "Alright, I'm not interested in the names of your subordinates. Just come at me, everyone is quite busy."
