“All those who do not believe me, come at me.”
Those words were insanely presumptuous and were full of confidence.
At once, a swarm of people moved. Then, a man in black stepped onto the battle ring.
“I sure what to see what gives you the right to be so presumptuous?”
The man coldly snickered. His original leveled Qi poured out of him. Alongside heavenly light, they headed towards Ling Xian.
“I will show you by defeating you with one move.”
Ling Xian smiled and flapped around his sleeve. An even more aggressive amount of power howled out of him and slammed the man down from the stage.
An instant defeat!
This scene shocked everyone. Those who do not know Ling Xian were looking at him differently. Those who knew of how powerful he is were shaking their heads. They all thought these people were better off challenging the other powerhouses.
“Come at me. I will stand here. All those who do not believe in me can come at me.”
Ling Xian had a crooked smile on his lips as he stood with his hands behind his back. He looked like the neighbor’s son who was utterly harmless. But his words and his demeanor were full of royal arrogance.
“Hmmph, let me defeat you!”
A black bear appeared on top of the battle ring, its eyes violent and its aura unfriendly. It wasted no time as it lifted its palm and slammed downwards as if it were a small mountain. It crushed through space.
Ling Xian was fearless against this. He too, slammed out a fist – a move that was calm but violent.
After a HOMMM, an infinite amount of light exploded. Whether it was the mountain like palm or the black bear itself, they both reacted as if struck by lightning. It began to cough up blood.
Another instant kill!
Everyone’s expression changed. This was far too aggressive! To defeat a beast at the peak of the original level was incomparably powerful.
The black bear lost its composure and forgot all about its face. It hurriedly asked, “I admit my defeat. Please spare my life!”
“Go on!”
Ling Xian said, then rolled up his sleeve, knocking down the bear from the battle ring.
Next, a man appeared. Without wasting a single second, he took out a silver knife and slashed it across the sky with killer’s intent.
Sadly, it posed no threat to Ling Xian.
Ling Xian slowly extended two fingers and held onto the small blade. Then, slowly, he snapped.
Crack!
A crisp noise broke the heavenly knife. The man was knocked out.
This scene astonished everyone. Three series of battles ended in the same manner. How powerful was this?
“This person isn’t easy. He isn’t any weaker than the famous powerhouses.”
“I thought I found a soft persimmon but I found an angry tiger instead. It looks like I have no luck with getting a battle ring.”
“That’s obvious. There are far too many powerhouses and geniuses here. Only they can hold on until the very end and possibly win the title.”
“But we cannot give up. The top 10 is definitely hopeless for us but the first 100 also gets some kind of award. The top 100 is also determined by the leader of the Palace. If during our battles here, we present something that is worthy to be praised by the elder, then we can win something too.”
Everyone knew very well that they were better off giving up the top 10 spots. But to garner the admiration of the leader of the Palace, they didn’t just want to give up.
Therefore, everyone stepped onto the battle rings and began their attacks.
Another man appeared before Ling Xian.
This person didn’t waste any time. He took out a gold clock that generated terrifying waves of pulses that crashed through the heavens!
Ling Xian froze slightly at this. Then, the Zither of the Crouching Dragon appeared and a song began to play!
DING!
The Song of the Crouching Dragon announced itself. Comparable to the sound of a clock, the explosion of each pulse was unimaginable.
If this battle ring wasn’t made to be sturdy, it would’ve been crushed into powder by now.
“Very good treasure. Sadly, it’s not enough.”
Grinning, Ling Xian plucked at his Zither. The heavenly music echoed throughout the world, creating cracks in the golden clock.
“Ehem, ehem, a powerhouse after all. I admit my defeat.” The man was coughing up blood as he walked down from the stage with much unwillingness and bitterness.
Everyone once again was a little startled. That person was a famous Heaven’s Favorite and the golden clock in his hand was a very powerful weapon. Yet it couldn’t survive Ling Xian’s attack. Why wouldn’t they be shocked?
After the man walked down from the stage, another original leveled Heaven’s Favorite walked up onto the battle ring. His hands were exploding with heavenly light that was unstoppable.
Sadly, before Ling Xian, he who was originally powerful was worth less than an ant.
“Go down.”
Ling Xian flung around his sleeve. His Qi, powerful and giant like ocean waves, attacked his opponents, forcing them to puke blood.
Instant kill after instant kill.
What could he do? He was originally already at the undefeatable realm and after studying the Primitive Text, his capabilities increased. What he had learned were techniques of the extreme. Even Heaven’s Favorites at the peak of the original level cannot defend against his glory.
Therefore, every single Heaven’s Favorite who stepped on stage was knocked out by him in one move. There was no suspense!
Ten fights, 100 fights, 200 fights… in the blink of an eye, 500 battles had already happened!
This meant Ling Xian had defeated 500 powerful Heaven’s Favorites. Whether they had insane treasures or they were geniuses, he knocked them all out with one move. It was unbelievably easy for him!
Despite having fought 500 battles, Ling Xian remained as collected as usual, not at all exhausted.
Everyone’s eyes flickered at this. They knew now that with their capabilities alone, they cannot defeat him. Defeating him would only be possible if they played tricks or something.
“What a strong powerhouse. Sadly, if you want to stop me, you will have to die in my hands.”
A man in black had a vile look on his face. The moment he stepped onto the stage, three needles pierced through the void, eerie and powerful!
At once, everyone shrieked with fear.
“The Speedy Needle of Return! It’s the legendary poisonous ones!”
“This treasure sure is rare. It attacks the soul of a living being. It’s extremely horrifying!”
“I cannot believe this person has this kind of weapon. Hehe, let’s see if that man survives this.”
Everyone was in shock. Ling Xian felt his hair stand up on their ends and sensed the threat.
Whoosh!
The silver needles broke through the sky with waves of eeriness. These needles were headed towards Ling Xian’s head and vowed to tear apart his soul.
“Go away!”
Ling Xian shouted. The tri-colored flower above his head bloomed. At once, an infinite amount of heavenly light shot through the clouds and surrounded everything within miles.
Especially the green heavenly light that represented the power of the soul, it was now as bright as the Sun, dazzling and blinding!
Under the sky full of light, the Speedy Needle of Return was evaporating. Within seconds, two had completely disappeared.
This made the man lose his composure and his confidence. Without another word, he turned into a dash of light and escaped.
Ling Xian was so powerful that the needles could not even hurt him. Why wouldn’t this person be scared?
He knew very well now that if he doesn’t run away now, he wouldn’t get the chance to leave.
“You wanted to kill me and now you want to run?”
Ling Xian’s eyes turned cold as he was now really angry. He had always knocked out his opponents before now and never killed them. But this person here had tried to use something as evil as poisonous needles. How could he let this man escape?
“Die!”
Ling Xian’s eyes were cold. He flapped around his sleeve and the needle from before switched directions and chased after the screaming man.
The man’s expression changed and he quickly summoned his enlivener. Sadly, he was no Ling Xian and had no horrifying capabilities.
At once, the needle pierced through his brain and destroyed his soul!
