Whoosh—
A streak of white light landed among the crowd.
A young man clad in white stood there, his gaze coldly fixed on Ling Xiao.
"It’s Wang Feng!"
"Right, it’s Wang Feng, the one ranked first. He really broke through to the Transcendent Realm, such a powerful aura!"
"He’s only eighteen, right? Incredible!"
"Once a prospective Inner Sect Disciple advances to the Transcendent Realm, they can directly report to the Inner Sect, becoming an official Inner Sect Disciple. Truly enviable."
"But why do I feel like he seems to bear so hostility towards Ling Xiao?"
"It’s not just a feeling, it’s real. You may not know, but Wang Feng and Jin Ming are sworn brothers. Together, they once executed an assignnt outside and cooperatively killed a Transcendent Realm Second Layer martial artist; not many are aware of this."
"Even so, now that he’s been promoted to the Inner Sect, he shouldn’t be allowed to lay a hand on an Outer Sect Disciple, should he?"
"That’s true,"
Despite saying this, many people still looked at Ling Xiao with so concern.
"Guard, may I issue a death challenge to Ling Xiao?"
Wang Feng ignored what the people were saying and turned to ask the guard of the Desperate Tower.
"Of course, you may, but Ling Xiao must agree."
The guard of the Desperate Tower looked towards Ling Xiao.
"I refuse."
A hint of a smile crossed Ling Xiao’s lips as he spoke.
"Coward!"
Wang Feng thought Ling Xiao was an impulsive man, assuming he would recklessly accept his challenge, but now it seed Ling Xiao was smarter than he had imagined.
"Heh, a martial artist of the re Eighth Layer Martial Vein Peak and a Transcendent Realm martial artist challenging to a death duel, and you have the nerve to call a coward?"
Ling Xiao laughed with scorn.
"Wang Feng, a death challenge won’t work, but you can initiate a revenge battle,"
Elder Black suddenly said, "In the Outer Sect, a revenge battle cannot be refused, it can only be postponed, and the postponent can’t exceed three days. Of course, there’s a requirent for this revenge battle—it must be against soone who is a sworn enemy or soone who has killed soone close to you or a sworn brother."
"Right, a revenge battle!"
Wang Feng’s face lit up as he said, "Ling Xiao, I launch a revenge battle against you!"
"Wang Feng, you’ve now been promoted to the Inner Sect, and it’s forbidden for you to combat an Outer Sect Disciple. That’s also a rule of the Sect,"
Elder Bai couldn’t help interjecting.
He truly didn’t want to see an Outer Sect talent destroyed like this.
Revenge battles were also deadly, of course, provided that your sworn brother or soone close to you was killed by the opponent.
And since Ling Xiao had killed Jin Ming, clearly this condition was t, which complicated matters.
"Elder Bai, now you’re being funny. Although Wang Feng has advanced to the Transcendent Realm, he hasn’t registered at the Inner Sect yet, hence not yet an Inner Sect Disciple; naturally, he can issue a revenge battle. Surely you aren’t planning to shield that kid?" Elder Black mocked with a cold laugh.
Just as Lan Yu’er was about to speak, she was stopped by Ling Xiao.
"Wang Feng, my reluctance to fight to the death with you is because I know I can’t kill you,"
Ling Xiao indifferently said to Wang Feng, "With your ability, trying to kill is also impossible; it’s just a waste of ti. However, if you really want to make a fool of yourself, then I’ll indulge you. I will accept your revenge battle; we don’t need to go elsewhere. Let’s do it right here."
Ling Xiao, who had never feared Hei Suo, how could he be afraid of a Wang Feng who had just advanced to the Transcendent Realm?
It was purely a matter of deeming such a fight a waste of ti.
But now, with the opponent pressing him, he had to respond to the challenge.
"Since you don’t need any rest, then don’t bla for being rciless!"
Wang Feng directly leaped onto the Desperate Tower.
This was the place for death matches, but revenge battles could be conducted here as well — in the end, they were all fights to the death.
Ling Xiao also soared up to the Desperate Tower, his gaze slowly shifting toward Wang Feng as he said, "Originally, as the number one Outer Disciple, you could have used that status to advance to the Inner Sect, which would have been quite an honor. However, you should never have troubled . Today, I will shatter your false glory with my strength!"
Facing Wang Feng, Ling Xiao no longer intended to conceal his cultivation level.
Because it was impossible to hide it anyway.
He had thought it over; now he had the support of Yuan Venerate, Yang Dan Lin, and Lan Yu’er.
He had an outstanding talent for alchemy.
If his talent proved to be extrely exceptional, it might attract the attention of the Demonfla Celestial, but it would also garner the attention of the higher-ups of the Moon Hua Sect.
Talents were rigorously protected in any sect, and he didn’t believe that a Demonfla Celestial could turn the Moon Hua Sect upside down, could he?
Boom——!
A surging aura suddenly soared, as Ling Xiao released his True Essence aura without any reservations.
"My god, this guy really did hide his strength!"
"Ninth Layer Pinnacle of Martial Veins? No! That’s the aura of a Half-step Grandmaster!"
"How is that possible? He was only at the Eighth Layer Peak of Martial Veins when he started, how could his cultivation have progressed so quickly?"
The discussions of others were no longer of concern to Ling Xiao.
Right now, his mind was focused entirely on this battle.
With the Ice Dragon Sword in hand, he felt full of confidence — especially because he had just grasped the use of "montum," he now was eager to try it again.
He couldn’t let that feeling slip through his fingers.
"Hmph, your aura may be strong, but in reality, it’s probably only two and a half steps into the Grandmaster’s cultivation level, isn’t it? Today, I’ll show you what the Transcendent Realm truly is!"
Wind Thunder Palm!
Without moving his body, Wang Feng’s right palm had already struck out.
A terrifying aura suddenly blasted from the void, a gigantic True Essence hand enveloped in wind and thunder burst forth, aiming straight for Ling Xiao’s vital parts.
"Is this a Transcendent Realm master’s attack? I wonder if Ling Xiao can block it!"
Soon enough, Ling Xiao answered that question.
"Break for !"
With a calm expression, Ling Xiao pierced the weakest point of the massive True Essence hand with the Ice Dragon Sword, like a venomous dragon.
Crack!
A crisp sound rang out, and the formidable True Essence hand instantly shattered upon impact, vanishing like mist and smoke.
"Hm? I didn’t expect you to understand how to exploit weaknesses!"
Wang Feng had never encountered Ling Xiao before, so his understanding of him was virtually none, given that he had been in closed-door cultivation since Ling Xiao joined the Moon Hua Sect and had only recently erged.
"But what of that? See how you deal with my Wind Thunder Successive Palms!"
With a furious shout from Wang Feng, multiple True Essence hands wrapped in wind and thunder viciously struck out in quick succession.
Moreover, this was not rely a series of attacks; it was a chain, where each subsequent palm could automatically adjust based on the effect of the previous one.
Such control of True Essence was indeed formidable.
"It’s no surprise that you’re the number one of the Outer Sect, your thods are indeed exceptional. But it’s a pity that you’re facing . Shatter for !"
Ling Xiao shook the Ice Dragon Sword.
The second move of the Snow Lotus Sword Technique, "lting Water," was already unleashed.
This move could be used for attack or defense and had a wide range, perfect for breaking chain attacks or group assaults.
Around Ling Xiao, a strange fluctuation arose, cutting through the air like the edged Sword Qi, sharp and fierce.
