The inner sect assessment of the sect was relatively easy. It merely tested the disciples' control and understanding of sword kinesis and whether their foundation was stable.
When the auditing elder saw that it was Su Zimo, he did not even test him and gave him an inner sect disciple identity badge.
Under Little Fatty's lead, the two of them circled around Ethereal Main Peak before finding a cave abode to settle down.
Half a day passed in such a short time.
The news of Su Zimo becoming an inner sect disciple spread through the inner sect before long.
Su Zimo was about to return to his cave abode and continue his seclusion to cultivate Ethereal Foundation Establishment when a group of people walked over from not far away. They had unfriendly expressions and smirked coldly.
The leader was the former disciple of Spirit Peak, Sun Tao, who was knocked out by Su Zimo with a single palm strike.
After half a year, Sun Tao was already at early-stage Foundation Establishment.
The rest of them were unfamiliar and had different cultivation realms – there were even late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
Before long, they surrounded Su Zimo and Little Fatty.
Little Fatty smiled and cupped his fists. "Senior brothers, what can I do for you?"
"Little Fatty, go away! This has nothing to do with you!"
Harrumphing coldly, Sun Tao looked at Su Zimo with a dark gaze and raised his brow. "Su Zimo, back then on Spirit Peak, you ambushed me when I was unprepared. That debt has yet to be settled! I won't take advantage of you either. Since we're both at early-stage Foundation Establishment, let's fight it out in the spirit arena! "
In reality, even though both of them were at early-stage Foundation Establishment, one of them had just entered while the other was already at the peak of early-stage Foundation Establishment.
Furthermore, Su Zimo had just become an inner sect disciple and had yet to learn spirit arts. On the other hand, Sun Tao had been in the inner sect for a few months and had already mastered many spirit arts.
Everyone knew whether it was fair or not but no one pointed it out.
Little Fatty had a strange expression and looked at Sun Tao with a hint of pity. However, he did not point it out either.
Su Zimo could not be bothered with Sun Tao and merely shook his head. "I'm not interested."
"Hmph!"
Sun Tao's face darkened as he shouted, "Su Zimo, it's not up to you today!"
"Hmm?"
Su Zimo narrowed his eyes and stared at Sun Tao for a while. Suddenly, he smiled and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Su Zimo, stop pretending!"
A sect disciple at the side shouted, "If not for the fact that you, a Qi Refinement Warrior, had implicated Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Guan in the spirit mine of Linfeng City, how would they have perished?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Little Fatty couldn't help but scold them.
He knew exactly what had happened at the spirit mine in Linfeng City but no one else knew about it.
One of them sneered and said, "Although the three of you kept your mouths shut about that matter, we can roughly guess what happened. It must be this Su Zimo who dragged the two Senior Brothers down!"
Su Zi was expressionless as he listened to the criticism of his fellow disciples.
This rumor had no basis and was merely the result of a wild guess. Although it sounded ridiculous, many people in the inner sect believed it.
There was no way Su Zimo would have believed that rumor if someone had not spread it intentionally.
Sun Tao sneered. "Su Zimo, even if you reject my challenge, from today onwards, many senior brothers will challenge you continuously to seek justice for the two dead senior brothers! Hmph, don't even think about cultivating in the inner sect from now on! "
Su Zimo's expression was unchanged as he nodded. "Alright, let's go to the spirit arena."
For some reason, Sun Tao felt uneasy when he heard Su Zimo's nonchalant tone.
After all, Su Zimo had defeated Feng Haoyu back when he was at the Qi Condensation Realm.
Now that he was at the Foundation Establishment realm, Su Zimo would definitely be even stronger!
However, on second thought, Sun Tao realized that Su Zimo had just joined the inner sect and had yet to learn spirit arts – how could he compare to Sun Tao?
Before long, just as Sun Tao's thoughts were running wild, everyone had already arrived at the spirit arena of Ethereal Peak.
Su Zimo walked up slowly, calm and composed.
Sun Tao summoned his flying sword and leaped onto the spirit arena. Conjuring hand seals with his left hand, spirit energy rippled from his fingertips – his spirit art was already formed.
"Haha, today's the day I avenge my humiliation!" Sun Tao's heart was set after conjuring his spirit art and he could not help but laugh gleefully.
Su Zimo's expression was unchanged as he said indifferently, "Sun Tao, if I can knock you out once, I can do it a second time!"
Boom!
The moment he said that, Su Zimo's figure vanished from the spot.
A series of afterimages appeared between the two of them. In the blink of an eye, Su Zimo had already arrived before Sun Tao.
He did not make use of spirit weapons or spirit energy – it was purely the burst of his physical strength.
A tragic, malevolent aura surged over.
Instantly, Sun Tao felt as though he was not facing a human, but an ancient ferocious beast.
Without time to think, Sun Tao threw out the spirit art he conjured with his left hand and controlled his flying sword with his right, stabbing forward!
The distance was too close and there was almost no need for aiming.
Rumble!
Right at this time, Sun Tao's ears actually heard a burst of shocking sound of waves, surging and surging.
Su Zimo's eyes lit up as the power of his bloodline burst forth!
Su Zimo punched casually and destroyed Sun Tao's spirit art.
Immediately after, he tilted his body slightly and dodged the incoming sword. With a flip of his hand, he slammed it towards Sun Tao's face.
This action was exactly the same as what he had done on Spirit Peak.
Sun Tao was greatly alarmed. He only felt his vision darken as a shocking force descended. His entire body fell backward uncontrollably.
Bang!
The back of his head hit the ground and blood flashed as Sun Tao fainted on the spot.
It was too fast!
Many of the inner sect disciples watching below were not prepared. Both parties merely made contact and Sun Tao had already fainted on the spirit arena.
Everyone was stunned on the spot and could not recover for a moment.
Right then, Su Zimo turned around and looked at the inner sect disciples below. He said slowly, "Anyone else who's indignant can come up together and I'll take them all!"
Everyone was in an uproar!
The next moment, the inner sect disciples below were enraged and hollered, "Brazen!"
"Brazen!"
What did Su Zimo mean by that?
He was treating everyone as though they were nothing!
A disciple who had just joined the inner sect dared to be so brazen. The inner sect disciples present were all young and impetuous – who could tolerate that?
Little fatty furrowed his brows in confusion.
In reality, after Sun Tao said that, Su Zimo realized that this was the move of the enemy hiding in the dark.
He had to take it whether he wanted to or not.
As Sun Tao had said, if he did not settle today's matter, he could forget about cultivating properly in the inner sect.
And the simplest and most effective way to solve this problem was to intimidate them!
Not only did he have to intimidate Sun Tao and the others, he had to intimidate the person hiding in the dark as well.
Therefore, not only did Su Zimo have to defeat Sun Tao and the others today, he had to reveal his true strength and crush everything!
