"Anyone else want to challenge?"
Elder Fang, sleeves flowing, glanced at the shocked faces of the newly ascended Celestial Pride disciples, his tone sowhat impatient.
Even among Celestial Prides, the gap between each is not small.
Even if the Cultivation is the sa, differences in Level of Immortal Technique and combat experience can turn the tide of battle.
The new Celestial Pride disciples all looked around, but for a mont, no one was willing to step forward, each waiting for soone else to go first.
After all, the first to go could suss out more of their opponent’s techniques, increasing the chances for those who follow.
Lin Chang’sheng wasn’t in any rush anyway; his sights weren’t set on these Void Refining Stage disciples.
No matter how fierce these disciples might be, they weren’t his match—the crushing power of Cultivation spoke for itself.
"I’ll give it a try!"
After a mont, Zhang Shisong spoke up.
Since no one else wanted to go, he decided to test just how domineering Liu Hao’s spear aura really was.
As he finished speaking, Zhang Shisong leapt and landed right in front of Liu Hao.
"Junior brother, you’d better be careful!"
Liu Hao wasted no words; as he spoke, he brandished his long spear, thrusting straight toward Zhang Shisong’s chest.
Seeing the forceful spear aura coming at him, Zhang Shisong obviously wouldn’t et it head-on. Instantly, he darted aside, then summoned two massive hamrs crackling with lightning from his Storage Bag. Gathering his strength, he leapt into the air, bringing them smashing down toward Liu Hao’s head.
"Thunderclouds Overhead!!"
As Zhang Shisong bellowed, his double hamrs erupted with thunderous booms, flashes of lightning splitting the air. The sky itself grew dark with gathering clouds.
At this mont, the twin hamrs in Zhang Shisong’s hands were like Mjolnir itself, domineering as hell, lightning bursting forth.
"Middle Grade Celestial Spirit Treasure?"
Liu Hao’s heart jolted when he saw Zhang Shisong’s twin Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasures.
There was bound to be a hell of a fight.
Because the advantage given by a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure could decide the outco of a match.
Staring at the two giant hamrs bearing down with the fierce power of thunder, Liu Hao didn’t back down—instead, he swung his long spear, stabbing straight forward.
He seed intent on repeating his last victory, defeating his foe with his domineering spear aura.
But this ti, Liu Hao made the wrong call.
Because Zhang Shisong’s twin hamrs packed way more punch than Jiang Tian’s attacks ever did.
BOOM—
In the next instant, the two attacks collided mid-air, erupting with a deafening explosion.
Amid the crash, silver lightning snaked out wildly like a swarm of silver serpents, turning the ground nearby charred and black.
This ti, Liu Hao’s spear couldn’t break through the hamr strike—instead, he was forced back by the overwhelming thunder power and the twin hamrs.
Three bolts of lightning even struck his body, shredding huge sections of his robes.
If it weren’t for his Body-Protecting Elental Shield, he’d be seriously injured by now.
This stunned Liu Hao—he never imagined this seemingly harmless pudgy junior brother was so damn strong?
"That’s enough! The newly ascended disciple wins!"
Just as Liu Hao was about to go on, Elder Fang barked out a command.
Elder Fang could tell instantly who was stronger; there was no point dragging this out.
"Thank you for letting win, Senior brother!"
Zhang Shisong chuckled, tossing a glance back at Lin Chang’sheng, as if to say, "See, I’m not weak either!"
This honestly surprised Lin Chang’sheng; he’d thought this guy just grew that chub for nothing, didn’t expect him to pack so real power.
"Zhang Shisong earns seven days of cultivation in this cave residence! The rest of you, follow to the next cave!"
Elder Fang announced.
He continued leading the remaining disciples toward the cave residence of Heaven-Reaching Peak’s sixty-fourth ranked disciple.
This left a lot of the new disciples dumbfounded. They’d planned on swooping in for an easy win, only to have Zhang Shisong snatch the cave right out from under them.
The sixty-fourth ranked Celestial Pride’s Cultivation was definitely stronger than number sixty-five—just how much chance did they have of winning now?
But it was too late to back out; they had to grit their teeth and head straight to the sixty-fourth disciple’s cave.
After walking uphill for about two hundred ters, another cave appeared, this one fronted by a bamboo grove. Nearby, a pool of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Spring flowed beside the bamboo.
A man around fifty sat cross-legged among the bamboo grove, absorbed in cultivation.
The aura flowing from him was razor sharp; Lin Chang’sheng could sense at a glance that the guy was skilled with either sword or blade.
Still, if Lin Chang’sheng stepped in, he could defeat the man in a single move.
He was hoping at least so of the others could pull off a win—he wanted to face tougher opponents.
Unfortunately for Lin Chang’sheng, not a single challenger among his peers managed to beat the man.
"Lin Chang’sheng, it’s your turn!"
Elder Fang looked at Lin Chang’sheng, his face calm and unreadable.
Lin Chang’sheng was the only one left—every other disciple had already fallen to this one’s blade.
The opponent wielded a fast blade, fierce and unstoppable, its blade aura cutting through like the wind, leaving nothing alive in its path.
"Elder Fang, I have a request!"
Lin Chang’sheng spoke up.
"Speak directly."
Elder Fang answered succinctly.
"My Cultivation is at the Integration Stage. Isn’t it unfair for to fight Void Refining Stage disciples? May I challenge an Integration Stage disciple instead!"
Lin Chang’sheng shared his thoughts candidly.
The cave residences near the foot of the mountain were mostly occupied by Late Stage Void Refining disciples. Higher up, the caves of Integration Stage disciples were closer to the mountain’s center, where the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was even denser.
Cultivation there would naturally be much faster!
When Elder Fang heard Lin Chang’sheng, his brow furrowed slightly—the rule at Heaven-Reaching Peak was to challenge each cave residence in order, one by one.
