Li Hu's anger and humiliation could no longer attract the attention of the crowd. What the crowd cared about was how far Lu Xuan could go, and not whether or not he could break Li Hu's record.
"Do you guys think … Lu Xuan has a chance of surpassing Zheng Gang?" A disciple suddenly asked.
His voice wasn't loud, but it was clearly heard by the crowd. For a moment, the crowd quietened down. That's right, could Lu Xuan surpass Zheng Gang?
Before, they hadn't thought about this question, but now it seemed that it wasn't impossible. Zheng Gang's score was only around 3000 points, which meant that he had killed all the martial artists at the sixth rank of Body Refinement. But now, the gap between Lu Xuan and Zheng Gang wasn't that big.
This voice also fell into Zheng Gang's ears. He immediately turned his head and coldly glared at the disciple, his eyes revealing a trace of killing intent.
Zheng Gang's gaze immediately scared the disciple who had spoken. He had only said it casually, and didn't have the slightest intention of provoking Zheng Gang.
Slowly retracting his gaze, Zheng Gang's face darkened as he stared at the name on the ranking stone tablet. Until now, he had always considered himself a genius, and thought that he was the strongest disciple in this batch. If he was surpassed by Lu Xuan, where would he put his face? Especially those words he had said to provoke the Sword Sect. At that time, it would become him slapping his own face.
"Hmph, want to surpass me? In your next life! A mere fifth rank of Body Refinement, being able to kill his way here is already beyond my expectations. Don't tell me you guys still think that he can kill martial artists at the seventh rank of Body Refinement in the Sword Forest? Ignorant! "Zheng Gang coldly snorted.
If they wanted to surpass Zheng Gang, then they would have to kill a martial artist at the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm. If it was under normal circumstances, perhaps there would be a slight possibility, but this was the Sword Forest. Even with Zheng Gang's strength at the sixth level of the Body Refinement Realm, he was unable to kill a martial artist at the seventh level of the Body Refinement Realm. Although Lu Xuan was powerful, his strength was still there. He was only at the fifth level of the Body Refinement Realm. If he wanted to cross two small realms to kill an enemy in the Sword Forest, how could it be so simple?
In the beginning, Elder Jin didn't even announce the score for killing a martial artist at the seventh rank of Body Refinement. Because in the past, in the Wind Sword School's new inner sect disciple test, there had never been anyone who could kill a martial artist at the seventh rank of Body Refinement.
It wasn't that there weren't such geniuses, but rather, the disciples with such geniuses had basically all become core disciples, and wouldn't participate in this test at all. From this, one could see the difficulty of the test.
But just as the crowd was discussing, the score on the ranking stone tablet jumped again. The hearts of the disciples also jumped. Lu Xuan had once again killed an enemy!
This time, Lu Xuan's name finally left Li Hu behind and successfully pushed Li Hu to third place.
Seeing the change in the score, the disciples who had just quietened down instantly burst into an uproar again.
If it was only so, the disciples wouldn't be too surprised. After all, Lu Xuan had surpassed Li Hu. In their hearts, it was already an established fact.
But now, not only did Lu Xuan surpass Li Hu, but in that instant, his score actually directly soared by 1500 points. Not only did he leave Li Hu far behind, he even caught up with Zheng Gang's score in one go, tied for first place!
What a sudden increase of 1500 points meant, everyone was very clear in their hearts what it meant.
This meant that in that instant, Lu Xuan had instantly killed three martial artists at the sixth rank of Body Refinement in one move. The martial artists at the sixth rank of Body Refinement had already been completely wiped out by Lu Xuan. Next, he would be facing an existence at the seventh rank of Body Refinement.
To be able to instantly kill three martial artists at the sixth rank of Body Refinement in one move, it was clear that Lu Xuan was absolutely skillful and easy in battle. It was not as difficult as they had imagined.
More importantly, they didn't expect that just a moment ago, they were still discussing whether or not Lu Xuan could surpass Zheng Gang. Now, Lu Xuan had used his valiant strength to once again confirm everyone's thoughts. He, absolutely had the strength to surpass Zheng Gang!
"Good, good, good!" Elder Cheng was so excited that he couldn't speak. He could only say the word 'good' three times in a row to express his excitement.
How long had it been since the Sword Sect was this glorious? Elder Cheng could barely remember. Originally, after knowing that Zheng Gang was in the Saber Sect, Elder Cheng didn't have much hope. With the strength of the sixth rank of Body Refinement, he could completely crush all the inner sect disciples. His greatest hope was that this time, the Sword Sect would be able to have a few more disciples enter the top ten. That way, he would be able to gain some face. But he didn't expect that Lu Xuan would directly give him such a huge gift! A super huge gift!
Even if Lu Xuan couldn't advance any further, he would still be the rightful first place. It was practically impossible for the rest of the disciples to reach this score. After all, Zheng Gang's strength was only at the sixth rank of Body Refinement, so he could only reach this level.
"This guy, he really is going to defy the heavens!" Xing Feng couldn't help but swallow his saliva and say, "To think that I actually dared to challenge him. I was simply asking for trouble. I'm convinced, completely convinced."
Now that he thought back to the scene of him challenging Lu Xuan, Xing Feng couldn't help but blush. At that time, when he saw Lu Xuan's indifferent appearance, he thought that Lu Xuan didn't have enough confidence and didn't dare to accept his challenge. But now, it seemed that Lu Xuan clearly didn't care at all. Because the two of them were simply not on the same level. To think that when Lu Xuan called himself a junior, he still took it for granted that he was a senior.
At this moment, Li Hu couldn't even say a single word. With this gap in front of him, if he continued to be stubborn, then he would simply be slapping his own mouth.
At this moment, the person with the most gloomy expression was none other than Zheng Gang himself. He had just let out his grand words, and Lu Xuan's result directly slapped his face.
But fortunately, it was only on par with him. He definitely couldn't surpass him. The joint attack of a seventh-rank body refinement martial artist was not that easy to deal with. Zheng Gang comforted himself in his heart.
But these words, he didn't dare to say anymore, because he also didn't dare to confirm whether Lu Xuan really had the strength to deal with a seventh-rank body refinement martial artist …
"Not bad, I didn't think that within this batch of inner sect disciples, there would actually be another young genius. The strength of a fifth-rank body refinement martial artist, to actually be able to reach this step, is really commendable." Elder Jin said with a smile as he stroked his beard.
As the deputy head of the Wind Sword School, he didn't have any prejudice towards other sub-sects. Towards geniuses, he treated all geniuses equally. Right now, he was already convinced of Elder Cheng's previous words. Previously, this Lu Xuan was most likely really comprehending sword essence. After all, with the strength that Lu Xuan had displayed, there was absolutely no need to deliberately mystify things and delay time.
