Ox of Earth didn't say anything, just swept a glance at the surviving people, then said with a hint of displeasure, "Each person gets nineteen 'Dao', the game is over. Please come forward one by one to receive your 'Dao'."

Little Glasses looked at Zhang Shan's wound and couldn't help but break into a cold sweat. "Zhang Shan... are you really okay?"

"I'm fine," Zhang Shan smiled and patted Little Glasses' head. "How about you guys? You and Old Lv seem to be in good spirits."

"Ah...!" Little Glasses suddenly exclaimed, "Speaking of Old Lv, there's something I need to discuss with you..."

Old Lv hurriedly approached Zhang Shan, dancing with excitement. "Yes, yes! You have to help me!"

"Help? What happened?"

Seeing the three of them whispering, Qi Xia's expression darkened, then he turned to Lin Qin and asked, "What happened over there?"

Lin Qin took a deep breath and said, "To be honest, I thought we were done for..."

"That's right..." Tian Tian also added, "When the black bear came out, Lin Qin and I were so scared that we couldn't even stand."

"And then?" Qiao Jiajin asked.

"And then..." Lin Qin blinked, pondering as she said, "I only remember that man named Zhang Shan shouted 'Get out of the way' and lifted the iron plate to attack the black bear alone."

"What?!" Qi Xia and Qiao Jiajin exclaimed simultaneously.

"We couldn't bear to watch..." Lin Qin said, "It was so cruel. That man used the iron plate to knock down the black bear, pinned it down, and then kept attacking its head while sitting on the iron plate. The whole place was covered in blood..."

"Damn... he's like the Terminator..." Qiao Jiajin gritted his teeth and said, "That big guy is really fierce."

"He seemed to know the black bear's weak points. The game hadn't even ended, and the black bear was already beaten beyond recognition. Its nose was broken, and it lost many teeth..." Lin Qin said.

Tian Tian added, "But that Zhang Shan didn't come out unscathed either. The dying black bear fought back, flipped the iron plate, and then continuously scratched him with its claws. He was covered in blood, but luckily the black bear fell down in less than a minute. Thanks to him, the rest of us are fine..."

After hearing this, Qi Xia couldn't help but furrow his brows. No wonder Tian Tian and Lin Qin thought they couldn't win the game on their own.

It turned out that in their area, no one used the same method as him to pass the level. Instead, someone used the heavy iron plate as a weapon and fought the black bear.

"In that case... why didn't you come up earlier?" Qiao Jiajin asked, "The game had ended for three or four minutes before you came back. Me and the others were about to prepare for your funeral."

"That's even scarier..." Lin Qin pursed her lips and said, "After that strong man killed the bear, he suddenly said, 'I haven't eaten for several days. Bear paws are good stuff.' So he commanded us to use the iron plate to break the bear's arms..."

"So those two bear arms..." Qiao Jiajin wanted to say something, but suddenly saw the strong man, Little Glasses, and Old Lv walking straight towards them.

The three of them had a small cloth bag hanging from their waists, indicating that they had already received their 'Dao'.

The leading strong man had a cold expression, his gaze fixed on Qi Xia, seemingly unfriendly.

"Oh..." Qiao Jiajin suddenly remembered Qi Xia's "deal" with Little Glasses and realized that the situation was not good. "What should we do, Qi Xia?"

"The Matthew Effect..." Qi Xia muttered to himself, "To everyone who has, more will be given, and they will have an abundance. But from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away."

"What does that mean?"

Qi Xia didn't say anything, he lowered his head and calmly assessed the environment here, dragging a chair in front of himself to ensure a distance between him and the other party.

There were three more chairs beside him. He carefully looked at them and found that one of the chairs was placed in the most easily accessible position for him. Its legs were almost broken, making it an excellent weapon.

The Ox of Earth was ten steps away from here, unable to intervene in time. Qi Xia knew that as long as everything went smoothly, he could definitely take down Zhang Shan.

"No problem..." Qi Xia looked at Zhang Shan with cold eyes, "He may be able to kill a bear, but unfortunately, I'm not a bear."

"What are you planning to do...?" Lin Qin felt a little scared.

Qiao Jiajin also looked serious as he stared at the three approaching figures and moved his neck slightly.

The atmosphere became tense for a moment, and the smell of gunpowder filled the air.

If this strong man was really here to "stand up" for the other party, then it would definitely be a fierce battle.

Zhang Shan came to Qi Xia's front and looked at him thoughtfully.

Qi Xia also raised his head and looked at the tall man who was 1.9 meters tall.

"I heard... you had some stories with my friends," Zhang Shan said calmly.

"That's right," Qi Xia said, "That Uncle bought his life from me with 'Dao'."

Search "pawread.com" for the original.

"Huh... who do you think you are..." Zhang Shan extended his pinky finger and scratched his ear. "Buying a life from you, are you the King Yan?"

"I can be," Qi Xia took a step forward, bringing himself closer to the chair, "I can save lives, and I can also let people die."

Zhang Shan frowned, "What's wrong with you? Can't you speak properly?"

"Whether I can speak properly or not mainly depends on whether you will give me the 'Dao'."

"You're really annoying," the strong man frowned, "What if I don't give it to you?"

Little Glasses was stunned after hearing that and quickly whispered, "Zhang Shan! What does this mean? It's different from what we agreed on!"

"Mind your own business," Zhang Shan turned around and whispered, "I have my own arrangements."

"If you don't give it to me, I'll take it myself."

"Huh? Are you tired of living, kid?"

Before Zhang Shan could react, Qi Xia immediately kicked the chair at his feet forward, hitting Zhang Shan's knee.

Zhang Shan felt the pain and quickly took two steps back.Seizing the opportunity, Qi Xia immediately ran forward, picking up a chair from the ground. He grabbed the chair by its legs, knowing that Zhang Shan was injured. If he wanted to take him down, now was the perfect chance.

"Of all strategies, capturing the leader is the best," Qi Xia muttered to himself, before swinging the chair.

Seeing the impending danger, Zhang Shan immediately crouched down, raising his hands to protect his head.

The next second, the chair exploded into pieces on his arm.

"Crack!"

Although the hit was painful, it didn't strike any vital parts.

"Break their stronghold, seize their leader, and the enemy will be defeated," Qi Xia recited again.

Zhang Shan was clearly annoyed. "Are you really going all out?"

But before he could finish his sentence, he noticed that Qi Xia was still holding a broken chair leg.

Using the momentum, Qi Xia spun around and swung the chair leg at Zhang Shan's head.

Zhang Shan was no ordinary man. He immediately turned his head and used his hard forehead to meet the wooden stick.

"Crack!"

The chair leg broke upon impact, leaving a red mark on Zhang Shan's forehead.

"Interesting..." Zhang Shan gritted his teeth, "You're not holding back... Well, neither will I!"
