Ling Xiao had spoken, and Shangguan Hong initially wanted to retort.
However, at that instant, he suddenly felt as if he couldn’t even breathe.
The terrifying battle intent instantly enveloped the entire stage, and Shangguan Hong felt like a drowning person on the verge of suffocation, overwheld by imnse fear.
Ling Xiao didn’t draw his sword.
Above his head hung a giant sword shining with golden light, its dazzling radiance akin to that from the Red Sun.
The terrifying heat continued to spread, making the entire stage seem as though it was about to catch fire.
"What’s going on?"
"Is it a Martial Soul?"
"Doesn’t seem like a Martial Soul, maybe a technique?"
The crowd debated, yet no one could discern what Ling Xiao was displaying.
"Shangguan Hong, just being a waste like you, dare to threaten at the Tianyuan Treasure Pagoda? Honestly, if you hadn’t run away swiftly, I might have already pierced that mouth of yours.
You keep calling a waste, very well, today I, this waste, will use this sword to show you that you are even more useless than a waste!"
Tenth Mystery of Light — Divine Sword of Light!
Ling Xiao reached out his hand and grasped the Divine Sword above his head.
In that instant, his aura surged once more, as if breaking through Yun Xiao, making Shangguan Hong feel imnse trembling and dread.
Shangguan Hong now not only felt like suffocating, but also as if his body was about to be sliced into pieces by sothing.
That kind of terror, only he at the forefront could fully feel it.
"Defeated Feng Xidao, and you think you’re invincible under heaven?
Invincible below the Second Cave Heaven Realm? Where did you get the guts to say that?
From the day you joined Qingxu College and then left to join Phoenix God College, you had already lost to .
Lost the steadfast Martial Dao Will, you’ve already lost the quality that a strong person should possess, your defeat is just a part of fate.
Saying you’re a shaless traitor may be a bit unfair, but calling you a coward and weak deserter seems very fitting.
You say I’m a coward, but actually, you yourself are the true coward, weak to the point that’s outrageous!"
Ling Xiao’s words, at tis sharper than a blade.
Each word accurately struck Shangguan Hong’s weakness.
Ling Xiao was right, he was indeed a coward, arriving at the Imperial Capital, he was such a proud young man.
He once boasted he could lead Qingxu College to prosperity.
However, after just a month, minor setbacks completely eradicated his courage.
He was defeated by the Mingxing Crown Prince and then beca timid and weak.
He chose to beco a deserter, fleeing Qingxu College to join Phoenix God College.
Everything Ling Xiao said was not wrong.
"Look up, at this mont, I want you to take my sword head-on with dignity! Don’t let people look down on you!"
Ling Xiao disliked defeating soone who had completely lost the will to fight; he needed to defeat the strongest Shangguan Hong!
Only then would it be aningful.
The Tenth Mystery he had never used before, this was the first ti, yet even without using a sword, its power remained imnse.
Shangguan Hong suddenly lifted his head and angrily looked at Ling Xiao, "Why! Why am I inferior to you!
Didn’t you also get threatened by them?"
"Indeed, I was also threatened by those people."
Ling Xiao calmly said, "But those who tried to threaten ended up suffering themselves! I’ve always believed Qingxu College is not inferior to Phoenix God College, as seen from my few friends.
To put it in a way you don’t like, you now are not even as good as my junior brother Joshua Long."
"Haha! Ahahaha!"
Shangguan Hong burst into maniacal laughter, "You’re right, I am a coward, my arrogance rely hides my inner fear. Today, I won’t be cowardly anymore, even knowing I’m outmatched, I’m taking your challenge!"
He had realized!
He had an epiphany!
Everyone possesses dark history, Ling Xiao is no exception, in his weaker monts, he too chose to be a coward.
But whether to be imrsed in that dark past or to stand courageously, that is crucial.
Shangguan Hong made his choice.
A formidable montum continuously rose, the terrifying power fully unleashed.
Rainbow Bridge completely rged with torrential winter rain.
"Co, Ling Xiao, let see how powerful your sword truly is! Show my choice was wrong and yours was right!"
Shangguan Hong roared.
"Slash!"
Ling Xiao spoke no nonsense, executing a mighty strike with the Divine Sword of Light.
In that instant, everyone temporarily lost their sight.
The light was too dazzling, no longer rely brightness but terrifying light infused with Domain Elental Force.
Shangguan Hong squinted, his Rainbow Martial Spirit also erupted with a seven-colored glow, confronting Ling Xiao’s Divine Sword of Light.
The opponent was the Red Sun, he was the Rainbow.
Although the light was not as strong as the opponent’s, he refused to yield.
Ling Xiao brought him to awakening.
In the Martial Arts journey, once you concede, once you bow, even preserving life will make you weak, including your Martial Soul, your Martial Skills, everything!
Seven Colors fill the Sky: Tempest of Torrential Rain!
Shangguan Hong did not retreat.
The terrifying tempest of rain mixed with seven colored lights charged toward Ling Xiao; even knowing it’s impossible to win, one must fight.
Otherwise, he’d be even more disgracefully defeated.
"Buzz, buzz..."
Martial Artists with relatively strong cultivation squinted at the sky.
The entire sky presented an extrely strange situation.
One side was a tempest with seven-colored glow.
Another was the Arrogant Sun, Flas Burn the Sky.
The terrifying scene almost transford this plaza into a doomsday scene.
When the tempest t the Sun’s light, it instantly turned to steam and disappeared.
The terrifying Sword Beam was devouring Shangguan Hong’s attack, making the sight truly eerie and terrifying.
"Is this Ling Xiao’s Sword Dao? What kind of realm is this?"
Ji Luoyu’s small hands grasped the table legs, her body slightly trembling.
Back in Cri City, she had seen Ling Xiao in action, although impressive, he was just at the Ten Directions Heaven Cultivation.
But in less than half a year apart, Ling Xiao’s cultivation had reached hers, displaying combat prowess even superior.
"How on earth is this guy cultivating."
Ji Luoyu bit her lip, utterly dissatisfied.
"Luo Yu, now you understand the master’s intentions, don’t you? Despite your talent, you spend your days in leisure, wasting much ti. Ling Xiao surpassing you, though unexpected for , yet it’s within reason."
dicine King Sun Ran sighed and said, "Child, with your talent, if you’re willing, I can prepare the best pills to help you improve. In not much ti, by the start of the Dragon Tiger selection, your cultivation can reach the next level!"
"Disciple understands."
Ji Luoyu bit her lip, feeling determined not to be surpassed by Ling Xiao.
