What a joke!
The reason Duan Lingtian came here and participated in the Rising Sky Ranking Battle was to kill Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion.
Naturally, only Duan Lingtian knew about this. The others were unaware of this.
While the group of people was whispering among themselves, wondering if Xu Jing would challenge Duan Lingtian or not, Xu Jing's gaze landed on Duan Lingtian.
Naturally, in his eyes, the cold-faced young man was called Li Feng, and he was a sectless cultivator.
To be honest, when he found out Duan Lingtian had killed Xu Can, not only did he not hate Duan Lingtian, but he also thought it was good that Xu Can had died.
Before he cultivated the Devouring Dark Devil Technique, Xu Can was the only person in the Rising Sky Mansion who could threaten him.
Naturally, the threat referred to whether he would be able to become the Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion in the future since Xu Can was the only person of the same generation in the Rising Sky Mansion who could compete with him for the position of the next Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion.
Now that Xu Can was dead, it meant he no longer had a competitor.
Naturally, even if Xu Cen did not die, he was not afraid Xu Can would compete with him.
In fact, he was currently at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage!
Even the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi who were at the Mastery Refined Saint Stage were killed by him, let alone Xu Can who was only at the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage.
Although Xu Jing was not interested in avenging Xu Can, he quickly made up his mind when he saw the anticipation in the eyes of the people from the Rising Sky Mansion. He would challenge Li Feng!
Of course, in his opinion, challenging Li Feng was just a formality. Li Feng had already seen his strength earlier, so he would definitely be too scared to accept the challenge.
However, this formality was enough to further establish his image in the hearts of the people from the Rising Sky Mansion. This would only benefit him when he became the Mansion Master in the future.
Under the watchful eyes of the others, another person walked out from the group of people from the Rising Sky Mansion.
"Young Mansion Master, please."
The moment this Rising Sky Mansion's disciple appeared, he immediately went to the chess piece Xu Jing was on and announced he wanted to challenge Xu Jing.
Naturally, no one would think that he had the guts to challenge Xu Jing. When they saw him challenging Xu Jing, they knew that Xu Jing intended to challenge Duan Lingtian. To be more precise, he intended to challenge Li Feng whom Duan Lingtian had disguised himself as.
"I admit defeat."
As expected, when the Rising Sky Mansion's disciple challenged Xu Jing, Xu Jing immediately admitted defeat and eliminated himself.
In the next moment, without waiting for Xu Jing to challenge Duan Lingtian, everyone's gazes landed on Duan Lingtian.
They all knew what Xu Jing was going to do next.
Just as they had guessed, after Xu Jing admitted defeat, he leaped into the air and landed firmly on the huge chess piece that Duan Lingtian was on.
Xu Jing hovered in the air and looked at Duan Lingtian condescendingly. "You're Li Feng, right? You killed my Rising Sky Mansion's disciple. If you have the guts, fight me! "
If you have the guts, fight me!
Xu Jing's words were clearly saying that if Duan Lingtian did not dare to accept his challenge, he would be considered a coward.
However, the people present on the scene did not agree with his words at all.
"Hurmph! Does he think he'll be able to provoke Li Feng into accepting his challenge by saying that? "
"That's right! It's fine if he didn't show his true strength earlier, but now that he has, how can Li Feng accept his challenge? Isn't that equivalent to seeking death? "
"Li Feng is, at most, a Mastery Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator like the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi."
"It's a pity for the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi. If it wasn't for Xu Jing deliberately concealing his cultivation base, they wouldn't have had to fight him and end up dying."
"That's right! This Xu Jing is too cunning!"
…
The onlookers whispered among themselves. They did not think Duan Lingtian would accept Xu Jing's challenge since Xu Jing was just too strong.
Let alone the Rising Sky Mansion's district, even in all the fourth-rate forces' districts, there was no one below the age of fifty who was as strong as Xu Jing.
He was not even fifty years old yet, but he was already at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage!
Such a person was rare even in quasi third-rate forces.
Just when everyone thought Duan Lingtian would admit defeat, Duan Lingtian took a step forward and looked at Xu Jing indifferently. "Based on your words, it seems like you think I'll admit defeat?"
"Don't tell me you won't admit defeat?"
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Xu Jing could not help but sneer.
"Why should I admit defeat? If you want to fight, then let's fight! "
Duan Lingtian continued to say indifferently. However, when he reached the end of his sentence, his voice was filled with determination.
If you want to fight, then let's fight!
The moment Duan Lingtian's words left his mouth, the entire Nimble Chess Set fell silent. One could vaguely hear the rapid breathing of many people.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were trained on Duan Lingtian.
"Li Feng actually accepted Xu Jing's challenge?"
"My goodness! Don't tell me he's not afraid of death? "
"With Xu Jing's current strength, unless he's also a Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage, it's impossible for him to be a match for Xu Jing. Don't tell me he's also a Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage since he accepted Xu Jing's challenge?"
"How's that possible? Don't forget he's not even forty years old yet! "
"Let alone the fact that there's no Martial Cultivator at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage who's not even forty years old in the Dobusei Subterranean, such a person would be one of the best among the younger generation even in the Upper Province of the Dao Martial Saint Land."
…
When the crowd regained their senses, they began to discuss among themselves. The topic of discussion revolved around Duan Lingtian.
"Little Brother Li Feng, don't be rash! Although Xu Jing's strength has just broken through to the peak of the Refined Saint Stage and his cultivation base is still unstable, his cultivation base is still at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage. It's not something a Mastery Refined Saint Stage powerhouse can compare to. "
At this moment, Ren Zhong's reminder sounded in Duan Lingtian's ears.
Liu Hong Guang reminded him as well.
Whether it was Ren Zhong or Liu Hong Guang, both of them did not wish for Li Feng to accept Xu Jing's challenge. After all, if Li Feng accepted Xu Jing's challenge, he would most likely be killed by Xu Jing.
Li Feng was a genius Martial Cultivator they had their eyes on. Naturally, they did not wish for anything to happen to Li Feng.
Unfortunately, Duan Lingtian merely smiled at their reminder and replied through Voice Transmission, "Thank you for your concern, but I don't think he's capable of killing me yet!"
The peak of the Refined Saint Stage?
His cultivation base was still unstable?
When Duan Lingtian heard Ren Zhong's words, he calmed down slightly.
Naturally, he believed Ren Zhong's words.
After all, Xu Jing was the Vice Mansion Master of the Sky Hurdle Mansion, a fourth-rate force.
Previously, he was most worried that Xu Jing's cultivation base at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage had already stabilized. If that was the case, it would not be easy to deal with him anymore.
However, now that he knew Xu Jing's cultivation base was still unstable, he was slightly relieved.
Of course, he was only 'slightly' relieved.
Even if his cultivation base had not stabilized, it was still at the peak of the Refined Saint Stage just like Ren Zhong had said. It was not something a Mastery Refined Saint Stage powerhouse could compare to.
Ren Zhong was unaware of Duan Lingtian's current cultivation base. If he knew Duan Lingtian's current cultivation base was only at the Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage, he would most likely be so shocked that he would have a heart attack.
In the Dao Martial Saint Land, such a ridiculous thing had never happened before when someone was at the Intermediate Pristine Saint Stage and had killed Xu Can who was an outstanding powerhouse at the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage.
However, Duan Lingtian had done it.
"Good! Good! Very good! "
At this moment, Xu Jing who was stunned by Duan Lingtian's straightforward acceptance of his challenge finally regained his senses. His eyes shone brightly as he stared at Duan Lingtian.
"Li Feng, I must say that you're really gutsy! Unfortunately, the world of martial artists isn't a place where gutsy people can survive … Soon, I'll let you know how stupid you are for accepting my challenge! "
"No! Perhaps, you'll be killed by me in just one blow. You won't even have the time to realize how stupid you are! "
When Xu Jing reached the end of his sentence, he had a mocking smile on his face as though Duan Lingtian was about to be killed by him.
"Is that so?"
No matter how good Duan Lingtian's temper was, he could not help but feel enraged when he heard Xu Jing's words.
"What? Are you angry? " “
If you're angry, just give birth quickly. Perhaps, you won't have the chance to be angry anymore after a while. "
"Hurmph!"
Duan Lingtian snorted coldly and ignored Xu Jing. He merely stared at him coldly.
"You can make the first move. I won't take advantage of you."
Xu Jing sneered.
Upon hearing Xu Jing's provocative words, Duan Lingtian's anger rose again.
However, when the people present heard Xu Jing's words, they did not think much of it. This was because they felt that Xu Jing was qualified to say such words.
"Is Li Feng's head kicked by a donkey? He actually accepted Xu Jing's challenge! "
"Doesn't he know that he's digging his own grave?"
"Hurmph! He's digging his own grave! "
…
Not many people present were optimistic about Li Feng's chances of winning.
Apart from a few sectless cultivators who were looking at Duan Lingtian worriedly, the people from the various forces were looking at Duan Lingtian as though they were watching a good show.
These people from the various forces did not have a good impression of sectless cultivators.
This was especially true for a sectless cultivator who was as outstanding as Duan Lingtian. They were even more envious of him. It was truly infuriating for a sectless cultivator to possess such a cultivation base at such a young age.
Duan Lingtian stood on the huge chess piece and rose into the air. He only slowed down when he was at the same level as Xu Jing.
Duan Lingtian's eyes were filled with determination as he looked at Xu Jing.
"Xue Nai, today, Brother Ling Tian will get rid of this trouble for you … From today onward, you'll be able to live a carefree life like before!"
When Duan Lingtian thought about how worried Han Xuenai was now compared to the mischievous Han Xuenai in the past, he felt his heart ache again.
For this reason, no matter what, he had to kill Xu Jing today!
Even if it was difficult for him to do so now.
"Also, Jing Xu Zi … Even though we don't know each other, since your Yin Yang Two Qis Sword helped my Sovereign Heart Sword achieve a breakthrough, I can say that I owe you a favor. I'll return this favor today. Once Xu Jing dies, you'll be able to rest in peace in the netherworld. "
