Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl

Chapter 396: The Fierce and Intense Battle
This was the first time that Jiang Xiaobai encountered such a formidable opponent, not only in this current situation, but also for the first time in his life, directly facing a peak powerhouse in the late stage of the Tribulation Passage.

The woman seemed to have foreseen encountering an existence like Jiang Xiaobai, only giving Jiang Xiaobai a casual wave of her hand with a calm expression.

“Surrender. Don’t waste our time.”

Her voice was soft, completely contradicting her cold appearance.

However, Jiang Xiaobai would not surrender easily. He had a rough estimate of his own strength, but now he wanted to see just how strong a peak powerhouse of the Tribulation Passage could be.

Anyway, there was nothing to lose even if he died.

At this moment, Jiang Xiaobai pressed the yellow ring of light in front of him, his face full of boundless fighting spirit.

Seeing Jiang Xiaobai’s demeanor, the woman’s eyebrows furrowed.

“Not surrendering?”

“Courting death!”

With a cold snort, the light curtain blocking the woman disappeared, and without wasting a single word, she raised her hand and slapped towards Jiang Xiaobai.

In here, one could only use their own martial skills, and no weapons could be brought in. Although weapons could be conjured here, they wouldn’t have any enhancements.

The hand that was shrouded in black mist slapped towards Jiang Xiaobai, who was not the least bit afraid but instead filled with fighting spirit.

“Bring it on!”

Jiang Xiaobai roared as he charged towards the black hand with a silver longsword appearing in his own hand.

The Nine Heavens Star Sword Technique, his strongest sword strike!

This was currently the strongest sword technique Jiang Xiaobai had, and he directly stabbed it towards the black hand.

Then… well, there was no ‘then’.

Jiang Xiaobai only felt a moment of dizziness, and next thing he knew, he was back in the room he had been waiting in, even maintaining his previous posture.

With a thump, Jiang Xiaobai slumped onto the ground, his expression somewhat dazed.

Of course, he knew the extent of his current realm, even if he was dreaming of challenging a peak powerhouse in the late stage of the Tribulation Passage without having fully constructed his soul.

But he just wanted to try. He hadn’t expected the gap between the two to be so large.

He couldn’t even block a casual slap from the opponent?

Just like that, he was done for?

“This can’t be…”

He muttered to himself, then stood up and scratched his head, looking serious.

After this fight, he knew he couldn’t underestimate anyone. Even if he had the system to back him up, it was no use. Those strong ones could smack him dead with just a slap.

Strength was what mattered the most.

At the same time, Jiang Xiaobai understood just how terrifying the strong ones at the Tribulation Passage stage were.

He was not a match for them right now.

However, Jiang Xiaobai did not feel dejected. Not being an opponent now did not mean he couldn’t be one in the future. Once he completed his rainbow-colored soul, his strength would increase many times over.

Of course, that was another matter; whether or not he could etch out the rainbow-colored soul was still questionable.

Looking at his battle points, Jiang Xiaobai almost spat out blood. He had just died and lost ten points of battle points!

It was then that he realized why the woman was trying to make him surrender.

Admitting defeat would deduct only one point, but death would cost him ten.

Jiang Xiaobai currently only had a pathetic thirty-something points, deducting ten in one go was indeed agonizing.

“Ah well, I should fight normally from now on.”

Sighing, Jiang Xiaobai changed the mode, simultaneously setting the realm to the lowest Early Stage of Dividing the gods and the highest Early Stage of Fusion.

Following that, he began to fight like mad!

His own strength, through such wild battles, kept increasing and becoming more and more solid.

Although he had just entered the early stage of Dividing the gods and hadn’t drawn a complete soul yet, all his moves added together were not to be underestimated.

Jiang Xiaobai also discovered that in this type of fight mode, after a ten-match win streak, the points earned would start to increase, adding one extra point for each victory!

A ten-match winning streak meant an extra ten points, and this points system would start calculating from the eleventh win.

He only found out about this after having won eleven matches in a row. However, the effect did not extend to the twelfth match as he encountered a master in the peak Early Stage of Fusion.

He couldn’t beat them.

However, what puzzled the master was that despite knowing he couldn’t win, Jiang Xiaobai was desperate to fight to the death.

After all, dying once would cost ten points!

“Are you mad!”

The master was greatly surprised, but Jiang Xiaobai paid him no mind. In his view, surrender was just a way to conserve points, but such behavior was unacceptable.

This was a battlefield; one could surrender, but in a real battle to the death, where was surrender applicable?

Getting accustomed to surrendering here, not knowing what a do-or-die-attack was like, was utterly pointless. Even if one was unbeatable in the Hundred City Battle Simulator, what of it?

They would still die when they faced a real-life-or-death situation.

As expected, Jiang Xiaobai was killed by a master in the Early Stage of Fusion.

Just like that, ten points were deducted, but Jiang Xiaobai was not at all heartbroken. He knew he needed to have this mindset.

In the real world, he may not have the opportunity to fight to the death, but here he had plenty of chances!

Only in such life and death situations could one’s strength reach its peak!

Just like this, Jiang Xiaobai fought in this space for over a hundred hours, accumulating to about three hundred to four hundred battles, and he ultimately ended up with a pitiful score of sixty points.

Every time he encountered a terror-inducing opponent, Jiang Xiaobai would fight tirelessly until death. Although he won many battles and earned consecutive victory points numerous times, his death rate was higher.

“Phew, this has been quite the intense grind of my current realm!”

“While my power has increased considerably, it’s the battle experience I gained that’s more important!”

Jiang Xiaobai laughed to himself. This kind of battle was truly exhilarating!

He didn’t have to worry about the consequences, and even if he died, it only cost points. He could earn points back, but each life-and-death battle presented invaluable experience.

To the point where Jiang Xiaobai didn’t care about points as much. What he needed was the thrilling feeling of life-or-death battles and breakthroughs that came with them.

“The time is about right. I can’t stay in here for much longer, there are a lot of things to do outside.”

Murmuring to himself, Jiang Xiaobai exited this space and, seeing the sunlight outside, he stood up and took a deep breath.

“The real world is really the best.”

Jiang Xiaobai sighed: “Right, I should take advantage of the time Mo Yu is cultivating to check the reputation points.”

This was his other big reason for coming to the Northern State, to earn reputation, accumulate points and then get some benefits from the reputation market.

Although he didn’t know what the benefits were, Jiang Xiaobai hadn’t even checked the market yet.
