Seeing that there was actually someone who dared to accept the challenge, Tie Fan seemed to be in disbelief that there was someone who dared to accept the challenge without fear of his strength. Instead, he blankly stared at Xing Jue. After a moment of surprise, he cupped his hands and pretended to be courteous as he asked, "Brother Xing Jue is very courageous. May I know which continent brother Xing Jue is from?"
"Sky Martial Continent." Seeing this, Xing Jue also smiled and cupped his hands in return.
"What? Sky Martial Continent? "
Once Xing Jue's words came out, it set off an uproar among the crowd. The Sky Martial Continent was the existence at the bottom of the Continent's New Star Talent Ranking. This was something that everyone who had seen the ranking knew.
Such an existence at the bottom actually dared to challenge Tie Fan, who was ranked number one in the continent. They were naturally shocked and even doubted how a person like Xing Jue managed to sneak into such a luxurious Zhuangyuan Inn.
"May I know what brother Xing Jue is going to bet?"
At this moment, Tie Fan was like the rest of the crowd and also cast a suspicious gaze at Xing Jue. However, there was more disdain in his gaze.
"It's this Dragonscale Armor I'm wearing."
Xing Jue pointed at the armor on his body and replied with a smile. At the same time, Xing Jue used his thoughts to give an order to the armor's spirit, causing the armor's light to become even more dazzling and its aura to become even more obvious.
"This … it's actually a top grade totem. This kid is actually wearing a top grade totem?"
"The Sky Martial Continent actually has a top grade totem? This is simply unbelievable. "
"There's nothing unbelievable about it. That continent hasn't produced a Battle-Saint for thousands of years. As long as a person reaches the Battle-Saint level, they can plunder the entire continent's treasures. Having a top grade totem after thousands of years of accumulation isn't strange at all."
Looking at Xing Jue's Dragonscale Armor, the crowd's gazes became complicated and all kinds of discussions sounded out. After all, Xing Jue's Dragonscale Armor was a top grade totem. Even they, who came from the Extraordinary Continent, didn't have a totem of this level.
"Alright, you really can't judge a book by its cover. Brother Xing Jue, please!"
The might displayed by the Dragon Scale Armour was no small matter. Even Tie Fan was extremely tempted. Therefore, he did not hesitate at this moment. With a thought, he poured his Spiritual Strength into the Yin Yang Compass.
Because he was fully confident that he could defeat Xing Jue, he was eager to make his move. He couldn't wait to take Xing Jue's Dragonscale Armor for himself.
Buzz!
Upon seeing this, Xing Jue smiled faintly. With a thought, the dark black Spiritual Strength appeared within Xing Jue's body like a flame and slowly rose.
In this place, Xing Jue was not afraid of anyone knowing that he was from the Spirit Eater Clan. Therefore, he did not hide it and displayed the appearance of his Spiritual Strength.
Because Xing Jue not only wanted to defeat Tie Fan, he wanted to make him lose in an extremely ugly manner. Because Xing Jue wanted to change everyone's view of the Sky Martial Continent. He wanted to let them know that the Sky Martial Continent was not some bottom-feeder existence, but the strongest continent in the Ordinary World.
"What … what is this?"
"Is this Spiritual Strength? How can it be like this? This … such a powerful feeling."
"How is this possible? His Spiritual Strength is not formless, but dark black. "
"Also, this aura, how can it be so strong? Is this really a human Spiritual Strength? "
"Could it be? Could it be that he has refined a spirit before? Impossible, a spirit is so berserk that no one can refine it. "
As expected, after Xing Jue's Spiritual Strength appeared, it caused a huge uproar among the crowd. Everyone widened their eyes and concentrated on the Spiritual Strength on the surface of Xing Jue's body.
They simply could not believe it. There was actually a person whose Spiritual Strength could be so strong, so strong that they felt fear. Because after Xing Jue's Spiritual Strength appeared, they shockingly discovered that the Spiritual Strength in their bodies was actually trembling, as if they were commoners who saw a king who ruled over the world, instinctively revealing fear.
"Impossible, this must be a smokescreen."
"How can a mere person from the Sky Martial Continent possess a Spiritual Strength that is stronger than mine?"
"That's right, it must be a smokescreen."
"Hmph, petty tricks."
"This Yin Yang Compass can only be merged with Spiritual Strength. After you merge with it, your true form will be revealed."
Compared to the crowd's shock, Tie Fan appeared to be in even more disbelief. At that moment, he simply did not believe, did not believe that Xing Jue's Spiritual Strength would be stronger than his, and by this much. He firmly believed, firmly believed that Xing Jue used a special method to create a very strong illusion, causing them to mistakenly think that it was Spiritual Strength.
"Ah …"
He looked at everyone's eyes that were filled with astonishment, and their faces that were filled with shock. The corner of Xing Jue's mouth involuntarily curled up, revealing a satisfied smile, because this was the effect he wanted.
* roar *
Suddenly, with a thought from Xing Jue, the Spiritual Strength that hovered over the surface of his body soared into the sky with a majestic aura. At the same time, an ear-piercing roar spread throughout the entire hall, and at that moment, Xing Jue's Spiritual Strength had condensed into the shape of a black dragon.
* buzz buzz buzz buzz *
At that moment, even the Yin Yang Compass began to tremble, as if it was trembling, as if it was afraid of Xing Jue's powerful Spiritual Strength, or as if it had caused a special resonance.
* buzz *
But just as the Spiritual Black Dragon that occupied the top of the hall was about to fly towards the Yin Yang Compass below, a ray of light flashed from the compass, and the old man from before appeared once again.
"There's no need to compete, you've won!"
After the old man appeared, he directly cast his gaze towards Xing Jue. He had actually spoken, and his words greatly shocked everyone.
"What did you say? You dare to declare me to have lost without even competing? "Faced with the old man's judgement, Tie Fan's previously calm face instantly became abnormally sinister.
"There's no need to compete, the difference is too great. Your Spiritual Strength has yet to reach the general level, but his Spiritual Strength has already reached the king level. If you continue, you will only be inviting humiliation." Seeing that Tie Fan was unconvinced, the old man slightly tilted his head and explained in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing.
"General level? What is the king level? "
"I don't know, but there seems to be a huge difference between the two."
"I didn't expect Tie Fan's Spiritual Strength to be so much weaker than the one from the Sky Martial Continent. Then what level is our Spiritual Strength?"
"Speaking of which, the Yin Yang Compass's artifact spirit usually refuses to speak, so why did it say so much today? Could it be that the Spiritual Strength of that brat from the Sky Martial Continent is really that strong? "
The words of the Yin Yang Compass's artifact spirit were like a sudden clap of thunder before a storm. When it entered everyone's ears, it caused a violent storm. All sorts of exclamations rang out without end, and all sorts of praises and discussions could be heard without end. Even Xing Jue was shocked by the artifact spirit's words.
"You … you're spouting nonsense!"
At this moment, Tie Fan's fury could be said to have reached its limit. To him, the artifact spirit of the Yin Yang Compass was simply humiliating him. Furthermore, this humiliation was acknowledged by the surrounding people. How could he accept this?
"This old man never lies. I only speak with my strength." Faced with Tie Fan's insults, the old man indifferently replied.
"A mere artifact spirit dares to boast so shamelessly. Leaving it alive will only be a disaster."
* whoosh *
The old man's words had undoubtedly thoroughly infuriated Tie Fan. Tie Fan took a step forward, and a muffled sound rang out. His entire person had already soared into the sky. His tightly clenched fist was like a meteorite falling from the sky as he shot forward at a terrifying speed. His target was the Yin Yang Compass's Artifact Spirit, the spirit-like old man.
Tie Fan's strength was not to be underestimated. By the time everyone reacted, he had already arrived in front of the Yin Yang Compass. His fist, which contained a terrifying power, was already striking towards the artifact spirit's head at a terrifying speed.
Everyone was greatly alarmed when they saw the scene in front of them. However, they were powerless to do anything because they did not dare to oppose Tie Fan. However, the human-like artifact spirit was about to be killed just like that.
Even they, who had seen countless bloody scenes, felt somewhat unable to bear it. However, this was the way of the world. The strong were respected, and the weak were prey to the strong. Those with strength were kings, and those without strength were ants. In front of experts, even a person could be killed at will, let alone a refined artifact spirit.
* whoosh *
However, just when everyone thought that the artifact spirit of the Yin Yang Compass was dead for sure, a golden light that was like a bolt of lightning streaked across the sky and appeared above the Yin Yang Compass.
* boom *
After that, an ear-piercing sound rang out. A wave of air ripples spread in the air, and Tie Fan's figure explosively retreated. After flipping twice in the air, he landed on the ground in a somewhat miserable manner.
The sudden change caused everyone to be greatly alarmed. When they looked at the Yin Yang Compass once again, they were completely stupefied. They discovered that there was a person standing beside the Yin Yang Compass. That person was Xing Jue.
A mortal from the Sky Martial Continent had actually forced back the number one person of the Iron Blood Continent. This made them completely dumbfounded. If it was said that Xing Jue's Spiritual Strength was stronger than Tie Fan's, they could still accept it. However, if even his physical strength was stronger than Tie Fan's, they found it hard to believe.
"Xing Jue, do you want to exchange blows with me?"
After being forced back by a single punch from Xing Jue, Tie Fan's originally ugly expression became even more sinister. At that moment, he seemed to have lost all reason as he loudly roared at Xing Jue.
"I will gladly accompany you!" Xing Jue was even more unafraid of Tie Fan's provocation. The moment he chose to attack, he did not think that it would end peacefully.
"Tie Fan, have you forgotten the rules of the Starfall Empire?"
"You should be very clear about the consequences of fighting between mortals before the examination, right?"
However, just at that moment, a powerful voice suddenly rang out. Looking towards the source of the voice, one could see a man lying on the railing of the pavilion in the large hall. His eyes were slightly narrowed as he looked down at everyone.
The man was middle-aged, but his hair, which was a mixture of black and white, caused him to appear even older. However, his sharp and spirited eyes emitted an aura that caused people to shiver. It could be seen that this person's strength was no small matter. Moreover, he was not like uncle Pang, a commoner who had never seen the world. Instead, he was more like an expert who had experienced hundreds of battles.
