’My ten thousand-plus Spiritual Source.’
He knew Spirit Swords weren’t durable, but he didn’t know they were *this* fragile.
Did this sword not even have what it took to be swung with the full power of soone at Foundation Establishnt Perfection?
This battle had co at a heavy cost.
As he was lanting his loss, a Spirit Sword landed in front of him. "Consider it your spoils of war for defeating ."
Jiang Man looked at Zhuo Ling in surprise, thinking what a good person she was.
He examined the new Spirit Sword. It was a grade higher than his previous one, worth at least twenty thousand Spiritual Source.
He’d made a huge profit.
Just then, Zhuo Ling touched her neck, still shaken by his final strike.
’How had he managed to perfectly use the Bengliu Technique to send the Spirit Sword to himself, then perfectly catch and swing it?’
’This person’s combat Talent is leagues above my own.’
At that mont, Jiang Man gripped the sword and smiled. "Thank you for the match."
Zhuo Ling also perford a formal greeting. "My thanks."
She was actually very curious as to how Jiang Man had been able to use the True Martial Skill so quickly.
She had been just a hair’s breadth away; otherwise, she would have been the one to win.
But a loss was a loss.
After that, her team conceded and left.
Jiang Man couldn’t help but feel that there were still many good people in the world.
They then returned to the side of the great cauldron where they had been before.
They waited for the next match to begin.
He sat cross-legged to rest. This match had taken a huge toll on him. If they encountered another team of equal strength, it was questionable whether he could last.
Su Qinya looked at Jiang Man curiously. "Senior Brother, what do you think of Zhuo Ling?"
"A good person," Jiang Man answered honestly.
"And her looks?" Su Qinya asked.
"She’s probably beautiful," Jiang Man still answered honestly.
He hadn’t paid much attention.
Gao Rong was also curious. "Young Master Jiang, since you already have a dao companion, would you still take concubines?"
If he was willing to take concubines, Gao Rong would have to inform his family.
They would have to find a way to send soone over to him.
Of course, they couldn’t act recklessly.
After all, there was the connection with Xiaogao. If they tried to be clever and it backfired, it could ruin everything.
"I won’t," Jiang Man said frankly.
If it had been Xiaopang asking, he wouldn’t have been so clear.
But so people had ulterior motives, and others were even trying to force him to marry into their families.
That’s why he couldn’t be vague about certain things.
It would only invite trouble for himself.
Su Qinya breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had failed, no one else had succeeded either.
Still, she was very curious about who Jiang Man’s dao companion actually was.
"A Fairy," Jiang Man said matter-of-factly.
He naturally wouldn’t say more.
For instance, that she was old, had a cold temper, and liked to kill people.
Su Qinya and Gao Rong were both stunned.
For a mont, they didn’t know how to respond.
It made one wonder if he really had a dao companion at all.
Before they could say anything, a new round of skirmishes began.
They entered the Array again and appeared in a mountain peak battle arena.
This ti, three half-human, half-demon figures erged.
One was a woman covered in vines, another a man wreathed in flas, and the last a woman covered in scales.
"The Demon Race?" Jiang Man was quite surprised. "So this is what the Demon Race looks like. I thought they were just like ordinary Demon Beasts."
"Humans?" The man wreathed in flas eyed Jiang Man’s group coldly. "It’s your bad luck to run into us. The feeble Human Race has no idea how powerful the Demon Race truly is."
The mont he finished speaking, he attacked.
Jiang Man didn’t dare hesitate and went all out.
But in the instant they clashed, his Shadowless Palm crushed the man’s flas, pierced his Attack, shattered his Defense, and instantly blew him to smithereens.
Jiang Man’s follow-up combo froze mid-motion.
He stared in astonishnt at the scattered pieces of the fla-wreathed man and fell silent for a mont.
’I never would have imagined that a mber of the powerful Demon Race could be killed with a single palm strike.’
’Wasn’t he at Foundation Establishnt Perfection?’
’How could he be so fragile?’
Finally, Jiang Man took a few steps back and said, "The rest are yours."
Jiang Man looked at Gao Rong and the others.
These were beatable. They could give it a try.
It would also give him a chance to recover.
Gao Rong and Su Qinya nodded imdiately.
The two of them then engaged the mbers of the Demon Race. Su Qinya handled her opponent with ease, but Gao Rong struggled greatly.
After a short while, Su Qinya killed the scaled demon woman.
And Gao Rong, at the last mont, managed to slay the vine-covered demon woman at the cost of being injured.
Gao Rong stood frozen on the spot.
That was a mber of the Demon Race at Foundation Establishnt Perfection. He had just killed her?
Killing an enemy above his own cultivation level?
Ever since the competition between the First, Second, and Third Courtyards had begun, he had felt like he was at the very bottom of the totem pole.
He barely had a chance to fight, and when he did, he just got beaten up.
Especially in the random skirmishes—every ti he fought, he suffered a crushing defeat.
But he never expected that against the Demon Race, he would actually...
...kill soone above his level.
"Isn’t this a little illogical?" Gao Rong asked.
Jiang Man also found it strange. It really didn’t make sense.
While they were still puzzled, the corpses of the Demon Race mbers suddenly began to change, as if they were burning.
Finally, they transford into three Spirit Beast Eggs.
This scene took all three of them by surprise.
"One for each of us?" Jiang Man asked, looking at the other two.
Logically, these counted as rewards from the competition.
Afterward, they each took one.
Then, they were teleported out.
They returned to the side of the cauldron.
Jiang Man looked at the Spirit Beast Egg, feeling it was strange.
Especially how weak they were.
’They probably used this weakness as a ploy to infiltrate the Wuyun Sect.’
Of course, he had no intention of raising a Spirit Pet.
Especially since he knew what would hatch from it. Raising a humanoid Spirit Pet felt weird.
It was completely uninteresting.
Not as good as Old Huang.
’When I get back to the Sect, I’ll see what their stance is, and then I’ll sell it.’
Another source of inco.
After that, the skirmishes began again.
Twelve matches, all of them draws.
Many people’s tempers were starting to flare.
The thirteenth match.
Jiang Man encountered Demon Beasts again.
Three female demons.
Jiang Man didn’t even have to act.
But they still got one egg each.
It seed that as long as you had twelve draws, you got a chance to encounter the Demon Race.
’Is this a hidden reward from the Sect?’
Only then did it dawn on Gao Rong and Su Qinya.
