As soon as his right foot stepped on the stairs of the competition platform, Xia Kucao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he felt a seemingly non-existent pressure rising from the steps under his feet and pressing down on his shoulders.

It's just that the current Prunella grass is not the same person he was a month ago, and this has nothing to do with biology (Note 1), but purely a relationship of vision, so he quickly discerned the source of this pressure.

'Limit Cornerstone ......' Xia Kucao silently recited the name from the book, and then raised his eyes to look at Bai Li, but saw that the other party was slowly climbing up the stairs as if nothing had happened, looking extremely leisurely.

"Or is it a high-level ...... that will only have an impact on sealers below the realm of real sealing?"

In terms of realm, Bai Li has already steadily entered the ranks of middle-level sealers, but he is a Awakening Illusion Realm that is completely lower than the other party's one big foreign and one small realm, so Xia Kucao has been ready to suppress himself with his realm advantage early on.

It's just that he never thought that the other party could give full play to his own advantages - even this competition platform has already put in a lot of effort!

At this time, Bai Yan had already climbed the cornerstone of the limit, turned around, and looked at the prunella grass for a long time.

After a long time, he was not in a hurry or impatient, and Bai Li really didn't mean to make a move, just looked at him blindly.

Seeing this, Xia Kucao's mind changed sharply, and from Du Heng's expression on the side, he confirmed that this limit cornerstone was definitely not an item of the academy, so just in an instant, he guessed the other party's plan.

"Let me guess. Xia Withered Grass spoke, and since he was so sure that Bai Li would never attack him at this time, there was no reverence in his words, and there was no frustration in half of being in an invincible place.

"You expected early on that the Academy might use some means to keep your painstakingly arranged blood oath revenge from being known, so you deliberately spread the news to make it known to everyone, and you also prepared this Limit Cornerstone. ”

Bai Li's expression was still as light and indifferent as before, and Xia Kucao didn't care, just continued: "And with the characteristics of this limit cornerstone, it is difficult for me to contact you, so as long as you don't make a move, this blood oath revenge can be infinitely deadlocked." ”

"It's not that it's hard, it's simply impossible. Bai Li interjected expressionlessly.

Xia Kucao smiled inexplicably when she heard this, but did not refute it, but said with some self-deprecation: "You can be regarded as having figured out my mind, knowing that this kind of result of defeat without a fight, I will not accept it willingly no matter what, so sealing a limit cornerstone can block the possibility of me admitting defeat and self-defeat." ”

"And as long as I don't admit defeat and you don't win, this bloody revenge can last forever. ”

Xia Kucao looked at Bai Li steadily, and the expression on his face gradually turned cold.

"But the academy will not accept this result. ”

"It's just that the hospital can't interfere with the blood oath for revenge, so they can only admit defeat to you on my behalf. ”

But that's still not your purpose. ”

Xia Kucao suddenly frowned, and corrected: "No, it should be said that it is just your incidental purpose to let this world-leading Seal Master Academy have to bow to you." ”

"Your real purpose is to refuse after that, and thus lead to the intervention of the arbitration committee. ”

Xia Kucao smiled sarcastically and said, "Just like you did to Haijinsha." ”

"So the matter is big, your name of Bai Li will inevitably resound throughout the continent, as for the reputation of the academy, I am afraid that it will be more serious than you directly killing me and killing a freshman who is only in the first year of the Sealing Master Academy. ”

Speaking of this, Prunella applauded to herself, and exclaimed, "What a wonderful calculation!"

"Got it, so what?" Xia Kucao applauded, but Bai Li had already opened his mouth and said lightly: "Do you really know how to cut yourself?"

"Sacrificing your life for this academy that has only been enrolled for a month and has never even received formal instruction?"

Bai Li shook his head and said without a trace of emotion: "You won't. ”

"I really won't. Prunella smiled a little complicatedly, and then said, "So I'm going to do this—"

As soon as the words fell, it was a step!

The pressure that Xia Kucao was under when he stepped on the first step could only be regarded as a warning, and as he fell one step at this time, Xia Kucao's brows suddenly tightened, his face instantly became as pale as snow, and an indescribable severe pain once again struck his mind from the soles of his steps on the steps!

The sudden pain made Xia Kucao's legs go weak and almost fall, but he forcibly supported the ground with his hands, and with a muffled snort, he got up again with great strength, ready to continue walking.

"It's like suicide, or even suicide. Bai Li glanced at Prunella Grass very coldly, but the hands in his sleeves were clenched imperceptibly - as Prunella said, his purpose was not Prunella's life, but a blow to the reputation of the Academy, so even if Prunella also had to die, it should be worth dying.

"This is my life, what does it have to do with you?"

Xia Wither stared at Bai Li, trying to distract himself in this way, but his voice was still legible, but it was already trembling slightly.

Prunella had never suffered this kind of pain, like countless hot knives, cutting wantonly on his head, so painful that he wanted to follow the example of Xingtian, and it was also because of this pain that his face was extremely pale at this time, and the beads of sweat on his forehead were rolling down like soybeans.

However, people who suffer often do not clearly perceive the intensity of the pain when they bear it, but it is the torture that continues after it is the most heart-rending, so when he thinks that as long as he stops, he will fulfill Bai Li's wish, and the ruthlessness in Xia Kucao's heart resurfaces.

He looked at his foot on the steps, suddenly smiled a little nervously, leaned forward with his waist and abdomen, and lifted his other foot that had fallen behind him as well, and stepped down fiercely and defiantly.

His foot was really heavy and hard, as if he was going to step through a solid stone.

So the price he paid for this action was also extremely tragic -

Countless fiery knives poked out from the soles of his feet, breaking through his ** like cutting butter, and clearly passed into his mind-

Summer Grass's face became paler, but his frowning brow gradually expanded, and he breathed a few times in a hurry, and then as if he was enjoying it...... Took a deep breath.

Seeing this scene, a trace of gloom flashed on Bai Li's usually expressionless face, and then he said, "There are still ten orders." ”

Not to mention the tenth order, it is half of the tenth order, and Du Heng, who is watching all this, does not think that Prunella can pass it, and what is more troublesome is ...... Du Heng thought back to the assumptions that Xia Kucao had made earlier, and quietly clenched his hands behind his back, thinking that if the situation really developed to that point, he could only make a move...... Kill Prunella vulgaris.

I won't mention the entanglement in Du Heng's heart for the time being, just talk about the scene-

The summer withered grass in the field didn't pay attention to Bai Li's words at all, but raised his right foot again with difficulty.

First-order, second-order, third-order......

Although every step passes, Xia Kucao's body will tremble more violently, and the speed of walking will be slower and slower, but it is very strange that Du Heng and Bai Li on the stage outside the field seem to be able to feel that he is walking more and more steadily, and it seems that every step has to deeply experience the pain he has suffered, and he is willing to take the second step!

Bai Li no longer tried to hide the gloom on his face, as for Du Heng, although he still didn't believe that Xia Kucao could go through the tenth order, he gradually shook the judgment of the original fifth order, and felt that the slightly suppressed mood had loosened a little, and he was even more appreciative and even proud for a while!

'It's so ruthless, but it's ...... How far can you go?'

The answer is step nine.

Before the last step, Xia Kucao stopped, grinned and gasped for a while, and then made a smile that was more ugly than crying, looked at Bai Li, whose face was gloomy and seemed to be dripping water, and asked very improperly, "Are you in a hurry?"

Then he waved his hand and said very casually: "Don't worry, wait for me to rest for a while, I think you should almost hold back to the limit, and you already want to make a move and knock me down." ”

As these words fell, a book of seals glowing with purple shimmer appeared beside him, and Xia Kucao wiped his sweat and said with a smile, "You can try it." ”
