Boom!
Zhang Ji Long's body flew out like an arrow that was shot out of the bow and landed heavily on the ground. Blood spurted out of his mouth, and he looked extremely wretched.
"Nothing's impossible."
Duan Lingtian responded coldly when he heard Zhang Ji Long's unwilling shout when he was sent flying out.
Zhang Ji Long's face turned grave when he sensed the gazes from the surroundings. He did not even need to look to know that those gazes were mocking him.
"He's so powerful!"
Jin Yuan Bao who ranked No.3 among the Thirteen Gangsters was shocked. He could not help but feel wary when he looked at Duan Lingtian again.
He could see it.
The ability that Duan Lingtian displayed just now did not seem like someone who had just broken through to the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage … In fact, he felt like he was on par with someone at the peak of the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage.
He was a Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage.
"Amazing!"
Seeing how Duan Lingtian defeated Zhang Ji Long in just one move, Guo Li could not help but be amazed even though she was confident in Duan Lingtian since the beginning.
"Duan Lingtian has such ability when he has just broken through to the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage?"
On the pavilion, the Heavenly Harm Guardian was also shocked by Duan Lingtian's ability.
If he did not know that Duan Lingtian was a Martial Cultivator at the Intermediate Mortal Shedding Stage in the past, he would not have believed that Duan Lingtian had just broken through to the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage.
"Duan Lingtian's ability is just too terrifying!"
"He defeated Zhang Ji Long who has also broken through to the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage with just one move … That's unbelievable!"
"With Duan Lingtian's current ability, I'm afraid he can challenge the top five of the Thirteen Gangsters."
…
The onlookers discussed among themselves. Most of them wished that Duan Lingtian would challenge the top five of the Thirteen Gangsters now.
While the group of people were praising Duan Lingtian's strength, not many people noticed that Zhang Ji Long was glaring hatefully at Duan Lingtian before returning to log cabin 7.
He had challenged Duan Lingtian today because he wanted to avenge his humiliation.
He, who had broken through to the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage, was full of confidence. Initially, he thought he could defeat Duan Lingtian. Who would have thought he would be defeated by Duan Lingtian in just one move?
If he had known that this would be the result, he definitely would not have come out to make a fool of himself.
"How could that Duan Lingtian have improved so much … … Before we broke through, he was slightly better than me by relying on the advantage of long-range attacks with his bow and arrows. But just now … "
After returning to cabin No. 7, Zhang Ji Long's face looked worse than if his parents had died.
Just now, most of the people present did not even see what happened before Zhang Ji Long was sent flying … Only Zhang Ji Long knew how terrifying the True Energy light blades that were shot out from Duan Lingtian's bowstring were.
Each True Energy light blade that landed on the Saint Weapon boots on his feet was like a heavy hammer smashing down.
In the beginning, he could still take it head-on.
However, the True Energy light blades came one after another. In the end, he could not take it anymore and was sent flying … Due to him taking it head-on earlier, he had suffered a severe internal injury.
"Master City Governor will come out of closed-door cultivation in a few days … At that time, he'll set a test and recruit two to three disciples."
Zhang Ji Long's heart sank when he thought about this.
"I hope my injury won't affect the test this time … Otherwise, I won't let that Duan Lingtian go!"
Zhang Ji Long gritted his teeth when he thought about this.
He seemed to have forgotten that he was defeated by Duan Lingtian.
"Guo Li, congratulations."
Outside, Duan Lingtian looked at Guo Li and congratulated her for breaking through to the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage.
Guo Li responded with a smile.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian looked at Jin Yuan Bao who was ranked third among the Thirteen Gangsters and nodded with a smile.
"Duan Lingtian, do you want to challenge me?"
Jin Yuan Bao asked with a smile.
Jin Yuan Bao was excited when he saw Duan Lingtian's powerful strength … He was a battle-hungry person since he was able to join the Latent Dragon Camp and was ranked third among the Thirteen Gangsters.
"Next time."
Duan Lingtian had a good impression of Jin Yuan Bao so he did not plan to embarrass him in front of everyone.
If it was a few days ago, he would not dare to say that he could defeat Jin Yuan Bao who was ranked third among the Thirteen Gangsters … However, it was different now that he had the Strange Pupil.
Duan Ling Tian had originally named the Strange Pupil as the Strange Eye.
In the end, he changed it to the Strange Pupil because he found it unpleasant.
The 'Strange Pupil' referred to his current 'left eye'. He had refined and fused with the eye of the One-eyed Demon Vulture and inherited the eye's abilities.
"Next time then."
Jin Yuan Bao nodded and smiled. He did not intend to force Duan Lingtian to fight.
Following that, Duan Ling Tian bade farewell to Guo Li and Jin Yuan Bao before he returned to his cottage number six.
Seeing this, Guo Li also returned to her cabin number eight.
If there were no accidents, the City Governor of Mound Hill City would come out of his closed-door cultivation in a few days … At that time, he would set up a test and pick two to three people from the Latent Dragon Camp's Thirteen Gangsters to become his disciples.
Guo Li really wanted to become the disciple of the City Governor of Mound Hill City.
Once she became the disciple of the City Governor of Mound Hill City, she would no longer have to worry about being assassinated.
Although the two great clans of Fuyu Island were at odds with the Guo Clan, they did not dare to offend the City Governor's Estate of Mound Hill City … The City Governor's Estate of Mound Hill City was an eighth-rated force in the Dao Martial Saint Land. It was not something they could compare to.
'Once I become the City Governor's disciple, not only will the two clans not kill me, but they'll also stop other people from killing me … After all, if I die, they'll definitely be implicated,' Guo Li thought to herself.
'At that time, it's not impossible for the City Governor to kill them in a fit of anger.'
It was undoubtedly a blatant provocation for two mere ninth-rated forces to kill the disciple of the leader of an eighth-rated force.
Put everything else aside, even if it was just for the sake of prestige, the eighth-rated force would not let the two ninth-rated forces go … At that time, they would rather kill the wrong person than let them go.
Due to this reason, Guo Li was eager to pass the test set by the City Governor of Mound Hill City and become his disciple.
"Although the chances are slim, I'll still try my best."
Guo Li murmured with a serious expression.
Indeed, her chances were slim.
Put aside the top five among the Thirteen Gangsters, she could not even compare to Duan Lingtian and Zhang Ji Long.
Among the Thirteen Gangsters, there were seven of them whom she could not compare to. Naturally, her chances were slim.
Right now, she could only hope for a miracle to happen.
After Guo Li returned to cottage No.8, Jin Yuan Bao did not stay outside for long. He returned to cottage No.3 and closed the door before he continued to cultivate … He was preparing for the test set by the City Governor of Mound Hill City.
After Jin Yuan Bao returned to his cottage, the high platform regained its peace.
However, the area of the dilapidated cottages behind the septic tank below the high platform was bustling with activity.
All of them were still discussing Duan Lingtian's strength.
Some of them even mentioned how Duan Lingtian rejected Jin Yuan Bao's suggestion.
"Do you think … Duan Lingtian rejected Jin Yuan Bao and did not challenge him because he's afraid of him?"
Someone could not help but ask.
"It's possible."
Some of them agreed.
"It's more than possible … In my opinion, Duan Lingtian did not challenge Jin Yuan Bao because he thinks he's no match for him."
"If he's confident enough to defeat Jin Yuan Bao, he'll definitely replace Jin Yuan Bao and become the No.3 of the Thirteen Gangsters … After all, the No.3 of the Thirteen Gangsters will get more Saint Stones."
"That's right. Tomorrow's the day to get the Saint Stones … If Duan Lingtian can defeat Jin Yuan Bao and become the No.3 of the Thirteen Gangsters, he'll get 1,100 eighth-grade Saint Stones. "
"Right now, he's only ranked No.6 of the Thirteen Gangsters, so he can only get 800 eighth-grade Saint Stones."
…
Because of this topic, the dilapidated cottages became lively again.
In the end, almost everyone felt that this was how it should be.
"Duan Lingtian and Guo Li are amazing … Both of them have broken through to the Mastery Mortal Shedding Stage. I wonder when I'll be able to break through. "
A young man stood in front of a dilapidated cottage and mumbled to himself.
This young man was none other than Zhu Lang, the genius Martial Cultivator who joined the Latent Dragon Camp on the same day as Duan Lingtian and Julie. He was from the Zhu Clan of Stormy Town in Mound Hill City.
He was already shocked that Duan Lingtian and Guo Li managed to become one of the Thirteen Gangsters after joining the Latent Dragon Camp on the same day and becoming one of the Thirteen Gangsters.
Now that Duan Lingtian and Guo Li were among the top of the Thirteen Gangsters, he had mixed feelings.
"I can't slack off anymore … Even if I can't catch up with Duan Lingtian and Guo Li, I'll still be one of the Thirteen Gangsters."
After taking a deep breath, Zhu Lang returned to the dilapidated cottage and began to cultivate diligently.
A day later, in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
"I've broken through!"
Suddenly, an excited and joyful voice came from the second level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda. It was Duan Lingtian's voice.
Now, Duan Lingtian was standing in the air on the second level of the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda.
The space in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda was not restricted by the Flight Prohibiting Formation in Mound Hill City. Therefore, Duan Lingtian could fly freely in the air.
Now, Duan Lingtian who was standing in the air had a bronze glow on his body.
Now, he was only wearing a pair of pants, and his upper body was bare.
His muscles were slightly bulging, and his muscular upper body seemed to be covered with a layer of copper clothing … It was the defensive technique of the Human Rank Primitive Saint Grade Martial Tactic, Copper Shirt.
The reason why Duan Lingtian was excited and joyful was that his Copper Shirt had broken through to the second stage of the Saint Grade Martial Tactic, and he had made some progress in it.
"I feel that … after activating the 'Copper Shirt', my body seems to have become a bit stronger."
Duan Lingtian clenched his fists tightly, and he could not hide the excitement on his face.
Without warning, he lifted his hand and punched out. Although he did not use any True Energy, it caused the air to vibrate and form a vast shockwave that blasted onto the wall.
Bang!
