Disciples of the Beast King Palace were aware that one was a Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer Peak powerhouse.
Another was a warrior at the early stage of Transcendent Realm Third Layer.
The gap between them was too vast; Ling Xiao might defeat Hei Suo, but surely could not defeat Ying Wu Ya.
Therefore, they were very happy, hoping to see Ying Wu Ya discipline Ling Xiao.
"Haha, so not accepting your challenge ans one isn’t a real man? If that’s the case, then may I ask you, Ying Wu Ya, with your domineering attitude, why don’t you directly challenge Guanghan Celestial Venerate or Golden Light Heavenly Lord of our Moon Hua Sect?"
Ling Xiao sneered, "That would indeed display your manliness, letting that delicate girl by your side see how fearless you truly are!"
"Brother Ling, your words are unfair. Both Guanghan Celestial Venerate and Golden Light Heavenly Lord are much older than ; they are my seniors. Even if you gave ten tis the courage, I wouldn’t dare to challenge them,"
Ying Wu Ya replied with a faint smile, "Is Brother Ling using these words to fob off? Isn’t that a bit too timid?"
"Oh, so there are tis even you, Ying Wu Ya, don’t dare to fight? Are you still a man then?"
Ling Xiao scoffed disdainfully, "You know you’re no match for Guanghan Celestial Venerate and Golden Light Heavenly Lord, aware that they are older than you, then pray tell, brother Ying, how old are you exactly?"
"Thirty-six!"
Ying Wu Ya responded gravely.
"Yes, thirty-six, but do you know my age?"
Ling Xiao said calmly, "I am only fourteen this year, so how co you don’t say that you are bullying soone younger?"
Upon hearing this, the crowd erupted in sounds of agreent.
Ying Wu Ya was thirty-six, and although achieving the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer Peak at that age was quite impressive.
But Ling Xiao was only fourteen, and you, Ying Wu Ya, don’t dare to challenge those older than you, yet you expect Ling Xiao to challenge you, which is truly shaless.
Given Ling Xiao’s talent, by the age of thirty-six, he would likely be far beyond the cultivation of the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer Peak.
Ying Wu Ya was taken aback, he hadn’t expected Ling Xiao to set such a trap for him here.
This made it difficult for him to save face.
However, he imdiately said, "That’s easy. Brother Ling is at the early stage of the Transcendent Realm Third Layer, I can also control my cultivation to that level, so that should be acceptable, right?"
"Why bother with the trouble? Why not just find three Beast King Palace disciples with the sa cultivation as for a friendly exchange? Are you people from the Beast King Palace brave enough to fight?"
No sooner had Ying Wu Ya finished speaking, than Ling Xiao put forward his own request, directly facing him.
This made Ying Wu Ya feel as if he had swallowed shit, unable to utter a word for a long ti.
The disciples of the Beast King Palace looked at each other, one after another showing signs of cowardice.
Ling Xiao had killed a Transcendent Realm Four-level Pinnacle warrior with a single move; even if they went up three at a ti, what good would it do? They might just end up like She i.
"Hmph, so Ying Wu Ya, you’re telling that the warriors of the Beast King Palace below the Transcendent Four-level are not real n? Since you’re too scared to fight, then we shall take our leave!"
With a cold huff, Ling Xiao turned and soared away, leaving only a parting shot for the people of the Beast King Palace.
"Ying Wu Ya, a battle between you and is inevitable, and it won’t be long, at most a year. I hope by then you won’t be like them, lacking the qualities of a man, hahaha!"
Ling Xiao’s voice was even more domineering and confident than that of Ying Wu Ya!
A challenge to Ying Wu Ya within a year?
Does this boy believe that he can advance to the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer Peak within a year?
The listeners were utterly astounded.
However, in the crowd, many people had no doubt about Ling Xiao’s words.
They had never heard the na Ling Xiao before, nor had they any contact with him, but after the Green Valley incident, they had co to have a relatively clear understanding of him.
The man was audacious and reckless yet possessed an astonishing talent and ticulous mind.
On the surface, he seed frivolous and dissipated, but in reality, he was extrely cunning.
So actions that appeared reckless, upon closer examination, revealed that this fellow had other sches in mind.
If he had truly been foolishly arrogant, Ling Xiao would definitely have engaged in a fierce battle with Ying Wu Ya today, only to suffer a crushing defeat.
He did not accept the other’s invitation to battle, but instead stated he would surely challenge Ying Wu Ya a year later—this was his cunning and shrewd nature.
This young man truly had boundless prospects.
Many martial artists, even those whose cultivation levels were clearly stronger than Ling Xiao’s, felt a deep sense of wariness towards him.
This wariness even surpassed that toward Ying Wu Ya.
Because they felt that Ling Xiao would soon surpass this ninth-ranked figure among the core disciples of Beast King Palace.
The disciples of the Beast King Palace, one by one, watched Ling Xiao’s departing figure with faces full of embarrassnt.
How arrogant could this person be to not even take their Brother Ying seriously?
"I’ll be waiting for you!"
Ying Wu Ya uttered four cold words, then waved his sleeve and said, "Let’s head back as well."
He didn’t believe Ling Xiao could beco stronger than him in just one year!
The path of martial arts beca more difficult the higher one went. It was not strange for Ling Xiao’s cultivation speed to be faster at the mont, but as for later, that was uncertain.
A day later, Ling Xiao and the others returned to the Moon Hua Sect.
Two days after, the high-level leaders of the Sect, after discussion, made a decision—it was the Sect Leader himself who made the final judgnt:
"Ling Xiao was brave and extraordinary. As an Outer Sect Disciple, he completed a four-level task during the Inner Sect joint training period, and he single-handedly killed the Plague Demon King, uncovering the secret resurgence of the True Demon Empire, reward!"
Although these words were easily said, so things still needed careful consideration.
The rewards for the four-level tasks were clear and straightforward, defined by clear reward amounts, and just needed to be followed step by step.
However, for the rit of killing the Plague Demon King and detecting the conspiracy of the True Demon Empire, that deserved a thorough discussion.
First, Ling Xiao received the rewards for the four-level task.
Originally, the rewards for a three-level task were modest, but the rewards for a four-level task were significantly increased.
The reward was one thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones and one thousand Sect Honor Points.
Secondly, for killing the Plague Demon King and uncovering the True Demon Empire’s conspiracy, Ling Xiao was rewarded with an additional one thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones, one thousand Sect Honor Points, and moreover, he was granted the special privilege to permanently accept Sect tasks, just like an Inner Sect Disciple!
Ultimately, Ling Xiao obtained a total of two thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones and two thousand Sect Honor Points for this mission.
Honor Points were also established as Honor Points; as ntioned before, this currency is even more useful than Low-grade Spirit Stones, as it can be used in the Sect to exchange for various Martial Arts Secret Manuals, weapons, and pills.
If one’s Honor Points reach a certain level, they can also purchase the Sect’s Honor weapons and even receive so special benefits.
For example, one could enter the Sect’s secret grounds for cultivation or receive personal guidance from so of the Sect Elders and so on.
In short, Sect Honor within the Sect was essentially a "privilege." If you accumulate enough Honor Points, even the Sect Elders wouldn’t dare to act rashly against you.
Ling Xiao needed the Low-grade Spirit Stones, but he needed the Honor Points even more. This ti, he had made a tidy profit and naturally felt quite satisfied.
