It spontaneously ignited without fire, which was contrary to common sense. Those who didn't know it thought it was Su You performing a magic trick.
Everyone looked at Su You and couldn't help but wonder, what kind of tricks was this sinister old guy playing?
Only Mr. Wu frowned, turned his eyes, and looked in another direction.
A young man was standing quietly, with a faint smile on his face, looking at Mr. Wu calmly without fear.
He is Ye Xingyu, and he is the only one present who is not afraid of Mr. Wu.
Just now, when Su Youzheng was feeling proud, Ye Xingyu used the fire of his soul to ignite the documents in his hand and burn them.
But unexpectedly, Mr. Wu discovered the clue.
In fact, it's not a surprise. After all, after cultivating to the point of transforming energy, the door to spiritual power has been opened. The induction will become particularly sensitive, and it can even capture the mental fluctuations around the body.
The essence of divine soul power is actually mental power. The two are just called differently, but there is no actual difference.
Ye Xingyu activated the Soul Fire, which inevitably left traces of mental fluctuations, which attracted Mr. Wu's attention.
However, Mr. Wu only noticed a little abnormality and was not very sure, so he did not speak and just stared at Ye Xingyu and looked up and down.
He remembered that when this young man first arrived at the scene, he noticed that the other person was looking at him. He took another look at him at that time, but because he was too young, he quickly ignored him.
Looking at it again at this time, Mr. Wu became alert, because the other party's performance was too calm, without any panic or fear, which was very abnormal.
Based on Mr. Wu's past experience, he knows that there are two types of people who will not appear timid when facing strong people, one is with background and the other is with strength.
And what kind of person is this person?
Of course, regardless of whether the other party had background, strength, or both, Mr. Wu did not really take this young man seriously.
He opened his mouth and asked flatly: "What's your name?"
Ye Xingyu smiled and did not answer, but asked: "Where is your mask? Why don't you use it?"
This question was asked in an incomprehensible way. No one else could understand it and looked confused. Only two people knew what Ye Xingyu was talking about.
One is Gong Lina, and the other is Mr. Wu.
Mr. Wu's pupils suddenly shrank, as if something flickered, and then he asked in a deep voice: "Do you know me?"
Ye Xingyu smiled again, but still didn't answer. He turned to look at Gong Lina and said loudly: "I want to challenge you!"
Gong Lina was staring at Ye Xingyu, looking back and forth several times, then suddenly smiled and said: "I'm just a weak woman, I can't fight!"
"Of course it's not a fight!" Ye Xingyu explained to the other party with a smile, "I know you are good at using poison, so why don't we fight poison?"
"Fighting poison?" Gong Lina's face changed and her smile froze.
She knew what these two words meant and understood the danger within them. No matter how calm she was, she couldn't help but be shocked.
The so-called poison fight is an ancient tradition. It is a duel between poison masters. In fact, it is not much different from a martial arts contest. The difference is that the methods used are different and the consequences are more serious.
In most martial arts competitions, it is important to stick to the point and have a sense of control. Unless there is a serious enemy, you will not take people's lives easily.
And the fight against poison, regardless of whether you have any grudges or not, is a fight to the death.
As for the specific rules of the competition, although there are many kinds, they are all similar. The essence is to test the poison with your life until you are poisoned to death.
In other words, if you take my poison, I will take your poison and see who dies first.
The one who survives is of course the winner, but even if he wins in the end, it will have a serious impact on the body and greatly damage the vitality.
Therefore, poison fighting is very dangerous. It is basically a game of death in which one's life is at stake. Even an expert who has been playing poison for many years will not fight poison easily.
"What? Don't you dare?" Seeing Gong Lina not speaking for a long time, Ye Xingyu smiled and shrugged, as if to express regret, "If you don't dare, forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Hearing this, Gong Lina smiled.
"Did I say I dare not? Since you want to play, I will play with you!"
After that, Gong Lina walked to the table next to her, picked up three empty glasses, poured three glasses of wine, then blocked Ye Xingyu's sight with her body, and secretly tampered with the wine.
When she moved away, the colors of the three glasses of wine changed to varying degrees.
The first glass is still like red wine, but the color is brighter and thicker, like plasma.
The color of the second glass of wine became lighter, showing a light beige color, like aged rice wine.
The third cup is the most terrifying, it is as black as ink, opaque, and has black air emitting from it.
These are three cups of poisonous wine prepared by Gong Lina for Ye Xingyu, each containing three types of poison. No matter which cup is drunk, the person will die tragically on the spot.
Ye Xingyu also picked up a goblet and poured half a glass of wine slowly.
The wine was a gift he brought himself. He was drinking it just now and it tasted great.
Then, he took out a small black bottle from his body, poured out a small black pill, crushed it into black powder, and finally sprinkled it into the wine.
Pick up the cup and shake it gently. The wine is still wine, no change can be seen, it is crystal clear and transparent as always.
He walked towards Gong Lina with a wine glass in hand, smiling and walking calmly.
"Only one cup?" Gong Lina was a little confused, but she had prepared three cups of poisonous wine.
"One cup is enough!" Ye Xingyu's answer revealed full confidence.
Then, he stood in front of Gong Lina and handed out the wine glass.
Gong Lina reached out and took it, glanced at it, but didn't drink it.
Ye Xingyu didn't rush him, he picked up a glass of poisonous wine on the table, said "do it first as a courtesy", and then put his mouth to it.
Without any hesitation, he drank it all in one gulp. It seemed that what he drank was not poisonous wine, but a drink.
Seeing that the other party was so cheerful, Gong Lina did not hesitate, raised her hands and raised her head, and drank the same wine from the glass.
According to the rules of poison fighting, both sides must alternately drink the poisonous wine prepared by the other side until one side falls.
The two of them tasted the poison one after another, within a second or two of each other, and then they had to wait and see whether anyone was poisoned to death.
If you think you can handle it, you don’t have to wait too long and you can continue drinking.
As long as you dare to drink one more drink, the other party will also drink one more drink immediately. This is only fair.
However, Ye Xingyu only prepared a glass of poisoned wine, and Gong Lina mistakenly thought that he only dared to drink one glass.
No matter life or death, victory or defeat, there is only one cup.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xingyu's next action was completely beyond Gong Lina's expectations.
He finished a glass of poisonous wine, put down the glass, picked up another glass, drank three times in a row, and quickly drank all three glasses of poisonous wine on the table.
