Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The atmosphere on the high platform was gloomy.
At this time, the four elders from the Divine Sect had worried expressions on their faces.
“Why don’t we find one here and anyhow bring one back to Old Man Mo?”
One of the elders suggested.
“Who here would be willing to do that?”
Just as he finished, an imposing reply came from behind.
“I’m willing!”
The four of them looked over in unison.
“???”
Elder Wen frowned. ‘It’s that youth again?
‘You’re willing?
‘We’re not willing!’
“Greetings, elders. I’m the eldest son of the Pure Wind Clan’s chief, Li Ran.”
Li Ran tried his best to remain calm and steady as he walked toward the elders. His expression was not too disrespectful but in his heart, he was overjoyed.
He had just stepped onto the high platform when he heard this exciting good news!
‘They were going to help Senior Mo Bao find a Body Cultivation disciple?
‘Coincidentally, I, Li Ran, have just delivered myself to their doorstep.’
“Elders, don’t be in a hurry to reject me. My father’s also a Body Cultivator, and I also have my understanding and insights regarding Body Cultivation. I’ve only awakened one Soul Ring, but my talent in Body Cultivation is extraordinary.”
The youth’s eyes were very bright. He introduced himself clearly, word by word, with a solemn expression.
“One Soul Ring?”
Other than Elder Wen, the other three elders frowned when they heard the young man’s words. ‘Only one Soul Ring has been awakened. His aptitude… It’s more than just a little bit lacking.’
‘If his aptitude is so bad, how good could his talent in Body Cultivation be?’
“It hasn’t even been a month since I started walking the path of Body Cultivation, and my strength has only increased by a little… I can barely be considered a Great Soul Master!”
The few elders who did not have any hope suddenly widened their eyes in disbelief.
‘A Body Cultivator could break through so quickly?
‘Who is he fooling!’
One of the elders teased, “Young friend, lying isn’t a good habit.”
“If you don’t believe me, there are so many senior brothers here. If you let one of the senior brothers who has just become a Great Soul Master spar with me, wouldn’t you be able to tell?”
The three elders looked at Elder Wen at the same time.
They hoped that he would make a decision.
Elder Wen retracted his gaze and looked at the situation on the training field. It was coming to an end.
Only the area for Beast Soul Rings had not ended. There were about a dozen people standing in the other two areas. More than half of them had been eliminated.
With a bang, the outcome had been decided. The second round of elimination had ended. There were less than 40 people left in the team of 100 people.
“The winners of the match will enter the Divine Sect within half a month with the wooden tokens in your hands!”
After Elder Wen finished, he turned to the Divine Sect disciple standing on the other side of the training field and said in a deep voice, “Yufeng, clean up the training field. Someone wants to spar with you!”
“???”
The people who were about to leave were confused. ‘Isn’t the competition over?’
Yufeng was even more confused. He had just bound his third Soul Ring not long ago, so he was only at the early stage of the Great Soul Master realm.
He had only come here to do odd jobs by recruiting new disciples. Since when did he need to fight?
‘Are my senior brothers and senior sisters here?’
“Thank you, Elders!”
Li Ran was the fastest to react. He thanked them and landed on the training field with a leap.
Standing opposite him was a Divine Sect disciple who had clearly not reacted in time.
“Senior Brother, please forgive me for offending you later.”
Li Ran did not feel embarrassed. He quickly glanced at the other party’s arm and had an idea in his mind.
‘His Innate Soul Ring is a Medicinal Herb Soul Ring. It has been strengthened three times. Judging from its light, it should be around 10,000 years, right?
‘As for his second and third Soul Rings, they’re both Weapon Soul Rings. They’re not as powerful as the Nine-Tailed Fox.
‘It’s not that difficult.’
The Divine Sect disciple had a strange look on his face. He was barely able to maintain the smile on his face but in reality, he was silently cursing in his heart.
‘What are the elders thinking? They want me to spar with a Soul Warrior?’
Although Yufeng was speechless, he still adhered to the principle of respecting his opponent. He would use his Innate Soul Ring and finish the fight as soon as possible.
Outside the training field.
“Li Ran?! He wants to spar with a Great Soul Master? Does he not want to live anymore?”
Someone recognized the youth on the training field.
‘That trash who has only awakened one Soul Ring?’
The surrounding people instantly understood.
“He’s asking for humiliation!”
Li Rui sneered from afar. Like many others, he was waiting to see Li Ran make a fool of himself.
Soon, the battle on the training field began.
The two figures moved.
The Divine Sect disciple reacted quickly and dodged Li Ran’s attack but as soon as he dodged, the youth counterattacked.
Several times, Yufeng had been entangled by the youth. If he did not have the help of his Weapon Soul Rings, he would not have been able to break free from his shackles.
The youth’s strength was astonishingly great!
At this time, the elders on the high platform revealed a trace of surprise. This was something the youth had intentionally revealed.
“His physical body’s quite powerful.”
‘But that’s all.
‘If he only has this ability, how could he hope to defeat a Great Soul Master?
‘Impossible.’
“Ah, I really need to use my Soul Ring now.”
Li Ran had entangled his opponent while observing the reactions of the people on the high platform. They still looked indifferent.
He relaxed his strength.
The disciple found an opening and immediately summoned his Innate Soul Ring. His opponent was too difficult to deal with. He had to finish him off as soon as possible.
A bright red flower bud emerged from the ground. It was covered in a layer of white mucus. When some of it touched the ground, it became charred black.
The white mucus was very poisonous!
Many people’s expressions changed drastically. That was the most poisonous medicinal herb they had ever seen. In less than five seconds, anyone who was contaminated by the poison would be charred black and wither.
“Li Ran’s definitely done for.”
Some people were gloating while others were helpless.
Not far away, the moment the poison appeared, Li Xun swayed and almost lost his balance.
He wanted to rush over to end this ridiculous sparring session.
‘Trash, how dare you spar with others without any means. In the end, someone else will need to clean up the mess.’
Li Rui, who was watching the show from the crowd, had a mocking look on his handsome face.
All of a sudden.
In the next second, the mocking look on his face disappeared. He looked at the training field in disbelief.
It was not just Li Rui.
Li Xun, who was originally about to rush over, was stunned on the spot as well.
Everyone was similarly dumbstruck.
That powerful flower bud that contained a lethal poison was smashed into pieces by a small stone flying toward it. It did not even have the ability to retaliate!
The five flower petals were smashed into the soil. Their original appearance could not be seen.
What lethal poison was that that it was ineffective toward the stone!
Instead, it made the stone even more excited. The stone smashed down crazily. No one could see that it was absorbing the flower bud’s essence.
In less than half a minute, the flower bud was completely destroyed!
The Divine Sect disciple spat out a mouthful of blood. His Innate Soul Ring had been destroyed, and his body had suffered heavy injuries. Next, he was directly thrown out of the training field by Li Ran.
Victory and defeat had been decided!
One or two of the four elders on the high platform were shocked. None of them had expected that such an unforeseen event would occur.
‘That disciple who’s a Great Soul Master has been defeated?
‘He has been defeated by a Soul Warrior who threw a stone!
‘Is that possible?’
They had not believed it at first either, but everything they had seen and the marks on the stage reminded them that everything that had happened was real!
“A Body Cultivation genius!”
“A heavenly prodigy! Other than Old Man Mo, his physical power is the strongest I’ve ever seen!”
An elder recovered from his shock and pointed at the youth on the stage as he spoke excitedly.
‘He’s certainly a Body Cultivation genius!
‘To be able to defeat a Great Soul Master with just a stone, dare I ask, who in the Azure Dragon Continent can do it?’
