Tang Tiancheng was wearing the uniform of a direct disciple of the Ancient Saint Sect. Seeing this, a smile appeared on Xiao Chen's face. He already understood where the Tang Family's confidence came from.
Logically speaking, there was only one explanation for the Tang Family daring to make a move on him despite knowing that he was a direct disciple of Tianfeng Shengzong. That was that the Tang Family had the confidence to not fear Tianjin Shengzong.
Previously, Xiao Chen had been curious as to where a mere half-step Saint family got the confidence to not fear the Heavenly Wind Holy Sect. However, after seeing Tang Tiancheng today, Xiao Chen understood. Tang Tiancheng was a direct disciple of the Ancient Sacred Sect. This was the reason why Tang Family dared to attack him.
However, the Tang Family clearly didn't suspect that Xiao Chen didn't choose to leave Zhenfeng City even though he knew that the Tang Family was no longer afraid of his identity. This also meant that Xiao Chen also had his own backing. This backing had nothing to do with Tianjin Shengzong, because it came from the Octagonal Gate.
Tang Tiancheng was a direct disciple of the Ancient Saint Sect. The Ancient Saint Sect stood behind him. However, if Xiao Chen exposed the fact that he possessed the Octagonal Gate, what would the Ancient Saint Sect do?
The Ancient Saint Sect had already begun to secretly pay attention to Xiao Chen. Now, not only had Xiao Chen broken through to the Dao Gate realm, but he had also condensed the Octagonal Gate. In this way, would the Ancient Saint Sect allow something to happen to Xiao Chen? If nothing unexpected happened, once Xiao Chen's Octagonal Gate was exposed, the upper echelons of the Ancient Saint Sect would definitely not sit idly by.
The Octagonal Dao Gate, or rather, his own talent, was Xiao Chen's greatest reliance. Between a person who had formed the Octagonal Dao Gate and a personal disciple, it shouldn't be a difficult choice to make.
Tang Tiancheng obviously didn't know what Xiao Chen was thinking. Of course, Tang Tiancheng had also completely underestimated the importance that the Ancient Saint Sect attached to Xiao Chen. In Tang Tiancheng's opinion, even if Xiao Chen had some talent, it was nothing compared to him. The Ancient Saint Sect wouldn't blame him, a pro-disciple of the Ancient Saint Sect, for a pro-disciple of Tianfeng Shengzong.
He felt that Xiao Chen was relying on Tianfeng Shengzong. Therefore, Tang Tiancheng came in person today to tell Xiao Chen that Tianfeng Shengzong was nothing. At least, they couldn't protect Xiao Chen.
Facing Tang Tiancheng's confident expression, Xiao Chen revealed a faint smile and said, "So this is what your Tang Family is relying on as a pro-disciple of the Ancient Saint Sect."
"What? Do you still think that my Tang Family doesn't dare to kill you?" Tang Tiancheng didn't deny Xiao Chen's words. Instead, he sneered and replied.
With Tang Tiancheng's status, he naturally dared to kill Xiao Chen. Hearing his words, Xiao Chen didn't panic as expected. Instead, he smiled and said without any change in his expression, "Do you think you can kill me?"
Since he had nothing to fear, Xiao Chen naturally didn't have anything to worry about. Moreover, it was rare to meet Tang Tiancheng, a pro-disciple of the Ancient Saint Sect. Xiao Chen's cultivation had also broken through to the Dao Gate Realm. To be honest, Xiao Chen also wanted to see how strong he was now, especially when compared to the pro-disciples of the Ancient Saint Sect.
It should be known that Xiao Chen's next goal was to become the Prospective Holy Son. In this way, his strength would naturally surpass that of the pro-disciples of the Ancient Saint Sect. Therefore, it was no exaggeration to say that Tang Tiancheng was Xiao Chen's alchemy stone. Moreover, he was the most suitable alchemy stone.
After he finished speaking, a battle intent slowly spread out from Xiao Chen's body. Feeling this battle intent, Tang Tiancheng was stunned at first, but he quickly sneered and said, "What?
You think you have the strength to contend with me after breaking through to the Dao Gate Realm by luck? I'm not comparable to a pro-disciple of Tianfeng Shengzong. "
As he spoke, a wave of spiritual energy suddenly surged out from Tang Tiancheng's body. This wave of spiritual energy was extremely pure and huge.
Tang Tiancheng could only be considered as the weakest among the pro-disciples of the Ancient Saint Sect. However, if he was placed in Tianfeng Shengzong, with his strength and talent, he could at least be ranked in the top three. After all, even the number one pro-disciple of Tianfeng Shengzong, Wang Zong, would only be able to condense the pentagate if he broke through to the Dao Gate Realm, just like Tang Tiancheng.
In the Heavenly Wind Sacred Sect, the Pentagonal Dao Gate was already a peak existence. However, in the Ancient Sacred Sect, the Pentagonal Dao Gate was merely at the threshold of a direct disciple. Only direct disciples who could form the Six Edged Dao Gate could be considered the true peak.
Of course, if one wanted to reach the level of a Holy Son or a Prospective Holy Son, the pentagate should be the standard.
A terrifying aura constantly spread out from Tang Tiancheng's body. Sensing Tang Tiancheng's terrifying spiritual energy, Xiao Chen wasn't nervous at all. On the contrary, the battle intent in his heart grew even stronger.
The two of them stood facing each other. A great battle was about to break out. The surrounding cultivators all looked curiously at Xiao Chen and Tang Tiancheng.
As geniuses of the younger generation in the Ancient Saint State, the battle between Xiao Chen and Tang Tiancheng was naturally very attractive.
After a while, Tang Tiancheng made the first move. All along, Xiao Chen's indifferent attitude had made Tang Tiancheng furious. The storage ring on his hand flashed and a longsword appeared in his hand. He fiercely stabbed out as he shouted coldly.
"Xiao Chen, die. Today, I'll use your head to test my younger brother, Tianbao."
"Come and take it if you have the ability. Let me see how strong a pro-disciple of the Ancient Saint Sect is." Hearing Tang Tiancheng's words, Xiao Chen calmly replied. Then, he unsheathed his Ink Dragon Sword and stabbed out to meet Tang Tiancheng's attack.
Both of them were sword cultivators. When their swords were unsheathed, sword intent swept out. With a clang, the two longswords collided. The terrifying sword intent instantly tore the ground apart.
It was a head-on collision. Surprisingly, Xiao Chen didn't fall into a disadvantageous position when facing Tang Tiancheng.
Originally, people thought that Tang Tiancheng's strength should be able to suppress Xiao Chen. However, after the real battle, Xiao Chen didn't choose to dodge Tang Tiancheng's attack. Instead, he chose to meet it head-on in the most direct way.
In a head-on collision, Xiao Chen blocked Tang Tiancheng's attack. Moreover, he didn't fall into a disadvantageous position at all. This shocked the surrounding people.
One must know that Xiao Chen was only a pro-disciple of Tianfeng Shengzong, while Tang Tiancheng was a pro-disciple of the Ancient Saint Sect. Although they were both pro-disciples, logically speaking, there should be an insurmountable gap between the two of them. After all, in terms of quality, a pro-disciple of the Ancient Saint Sect was definitely stronger than a pro-disciple of Tianfeng Shengzong.
With just one attack, Xiao Chen gave everyone a pleasant surprise. Of course, the one who was most shocked was Tang Tiancheng. Facing Xiao Chen personally, Tang Tiancheng could clearly feel that the power of Xiao Chen's sword wasn't any weaker than his own. This made Tang Tiancheng feel a mix of emotions.
