"Is he very famous?"
Duan Lingtian saw He Chun making a fuss about nothing, and his face was filled with bewilderment and bewilderment.
Shi Hao?
Wait!
I seem to have heard this name somewhere ….
But I'm unable to recall it for a moment.
"Of course he's famous!"
He Chun discerned that Duan Lingtian really hadn't heard of Shi Hao, and he couldn't help but explain. "Shi Hao is the publicly acknowledged number one disciple in the outer court of our Seven Star Sword Sect …. There's practically no one amongst the outer court disciples that's a match for him!"
Number one disciple in the outer court?!
Duan Lingtian's pupils constricted.
He finally remembered!
He remembered that Shi Yan, who had her Dantian crippled by him, had once made a fuss before him, saying she had a brother who was the number one disciple in the outer court. Moreover, her brother was an existence that was about to become an inner court disciple, a quasi inner court disciple.
Later on, Elder Bi had reminded him to be careful of Shi Yan's brother, Shi Hao!
So it turned out that the person He Chun spoke of that wanted to ascend the life and death arena to battle him was precisely that Shi Hao.
Shi Yan's brother.
When he saw Duan Lingtian's expression that ceaselessly changed, He Chun thought that Duan Lingtian was afraid, and he hurriedly reminded. "Duan Lingtian, if you don't have any other urgent matters, continue hiding …. It probably won't be long before that Shi Hao finds out about the news of you appearing here. At that time, he'll surely come look for you at the first possible moment."
"Then let him come look for me."
Duan Lingtian shrugged with an indifferent expression, then he looked at He Chun and lightly smiled as he asked. "He Chun, Hu Li ought to have returned home, right?"
"Yes."
He Chun had a bitter smile on his face when he saw Duan Lingtian's indifferent expression, and he only thought that Duan Lingtian was a newborn calf that wasn't afraid of a tiger. "He asked me to tell you that he'll let you see a completely new him in the future …. Besides that, the Hu Clan he's from is in Clarity City."
Duan Lingtian nodded and remembered it in his heart. He felt happy for Hu Li that Hu Li was able to be so cheerful.
At least, Hu Li didn't sink into the shadows of the past.
"Duan Lingtian, I think you should hide for a while."
When Hechun thought of Shi Hao, he felt his scalp go numb. In his opinion, Shi Hao was too powerful, far beyond what the current Duan Lingtian could contend against.
"You can hide for a while, but you can't hide forever … There are some things that you have to face."
Duan Lingtian shrugged and shook his head with a smile.
Hechun fell silent.
"That's right, Hechun, when will the Outer Court Martial Competition begin? Also, what do I need to do if I want to participate? "
Hechun happened to be there as well, so Duan Lingtian asked.
The reason he left the stalactite cave this time was precisely for the sake of the outer court martial competition this time.
Not only did he want to participate in the outer court martial competition, he also wanted to obtain first place!
This was his promise to Power of Hu!
A man's promise!
"The first round of the outer court martial competition is three days from now … So long as you're a Megrez Peak disciple, you can participate in the first round of the outer court martial competition, and you don't have to do anything. At that time, the people that want to participate can all gather at the Megrez Platform and receive a number plate to carry out the elimination battles to decide on the strongest 10 people. "
Hechun said to Duan Lingtian. "But, the outer court martial competition this time is different from the previous years, and there aren't any restrictions like the past … This time, there will be many seventh level Origin Core Stage outer court disciples participating."
Duan Lingtian nodded. He'd already found out about this from Li Fei earlier, so he was mentally prepared.
Seventh level Origin Core Stage?
So what!
Since he'd promised Power of Hu to seize first place in the outer court martial competition, then he would surely accomplish it!
Duan Lingtian's gaze was incomparably firm.
"Hechun, I'll be returning first … See you three days from now."
Duan Lingtian bid his farewells to Hechun, then turned around and left, vanishing before the eyes of all the Megrez Peak disciples.
Coming and going without a trace, elusive!
Not long after, a figure that dashed like the wind arrived at Megrez Peak, and under the guidance of some Megrez Peak disciples, the figure found Hechun.
"You know Duan Lingtian?"
The young man with a warped and hideous appearance stared fixedly at Hechun with a pair of triangular eyes.
Hechun never imagined that this Shi Hao would actually be able to find his place of cultivation, and the corners of his mouth curled into a bitter smile as he nodded.
"Take me to see him!"
Shi Hao's eyes flickered with a gloomy sheen, and his voice was cold like ice.
"I don't know where his place of cultivation is."
Hechun shook his head.
"Hmm?"
Shi Hao's face sank, and his pair of triangular eyes stared at Hechun, and in the end, he noticed that Hechun seemed to not be lying. "Then why did he look for you?"
"I only met him by chance, and after he asked me some things about the outer court martial competition, he returned."
Hechun didn't conceal it. As far as he was concerned, there was no need to conceal this, as all the Megrez Peak disciples would know three days from now.
"In this way, he'll be participating in the outer court martial competition this time?"
Shi Hao's pair of triangular eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth curled into a trace of a gloomy sneer, as if Duan Lingtian had already become his.
"Yes."
Hechun nodded, this was something he was able to confirm.
He was able to discern that the reason Duan Lingtian appeared near the Trade Hall today was precisely for the sake of inquiring about the matters of the outer court martial competition.
"That's good."
Shi Hao's pair of triangular eyes flickered with a cold light, then he raised his hand to directly slap Hechun flying, and only when he saw Hechun crash onto the ground did he snort coldly, then turn around and leave.
"Pu!"
Hechun was injured and spat out a mouthful of blood, and the corners of his mouth curled into a bitter smile.
This Shi Hao was really as overbearing as the rumors said!
Three days later.
The Seven Star Sword Sect's first round of the outer court martial competition had begun.
The strongest 10 outer court disciples from the six great sword peaks of the outer court would be decided on today, and they would participate in the second round of the outer court martial competition tomorrow!
The second round of the outer court martial competition was the true outer court martial competition.
People that displayed outstanding performance in the second round of the outer court martial competition would be able to obtain generous rewards bestowed by the Seven Star Sword Sect …
This was also the reason why all the outer court disciples flocked to the outer court martial competition like a flock of ducks.
Whoosh!
At the peak of Megrez Peak, a figure dashed like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it flashed down to arrive nearby the Trade Hall.
"Where's the Megrez Platform?"
The person that came down from the peak was precisely Duan Lingtian.
"Follow them."
Duan Lingtian, who didn't know where the location of the first round of the outer court martial competition was, merged into the stream of people on the mountain path of Megrez Peak.
Instantly, some of the nearby Megrez Peak disciples recognized Duan Lingtian.
"It's Duan Lingtian!"
"Duan Lingtian, you actually still dare to appear. Could it be that you're not afraid of Senior Brother Shi Hao?"
"Yeah, Duan Lingtian, if Senior Brother Shi Hao knew that you'd appeared, he would surely not let you off."
…
Waves of similar words sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears.
Duan Lingtian only lightly smiled towards this, and paid no attention to it, then his figure flashed out like the wind, following the stream of people to flash down the mountain.
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian passed by the vast platform that the life and death arena was located on.
Continuing down.
Finally, Duan Lingtian arrived at the Megrez Platform.
Duan Lingtian's gaze flickered as he looked at the Megrez Platform that occupied an area that far surpassed the platform the life and death arena was on. "This Megrez Platform is rather large."
The Megrez Platform was extremely large, and there stood 10 spacious stone platforms.
Every single one of these stone platforms wasn't smaller than the life and death arena.
Duan Lingtian guessed that these stone platforms ought to be the combat rings used to carry out the elimination battles in the first round of the outer court martial competition.
Before long, many outer court disciples had gathered on the Megrez Platform.
These outer court disciples were all in high spirits, rubbing their fists and palms together, and all of them wanted to become the last 10 people to advance today.
Only in this way would they have the chance to obtain the rewards bestowed by the Seven Star Sword Sect.
Duan Lingtian stood there, and naturally attracted many gazes.
Presently, Duan Lingtian could absolutely be considered to be a celebrity on Megrez Peak …
However, amongst the people that looked at Duan Lingtian now, there were some people that had gloating mixed within their eyes. "This Duan Lingtian actually dares participate in the outer court martial competition … Even if he successfully advances, he'll surely encounter Senior Brother Shi Hao in the end. With Senior Brother Shi Hao's hatred towards him, even if he doesn't die, he'll be crippled! "
"If I was him, I would surely not participate in the outer court martial competition this time."
"Yeah, what he should do now is hide and cultivate … Come out when he breaks through to the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage. With his natural talent, it ought to not take too much time. At that time, Senior Brother Shi Hao might not be able to do anything to him. "
"I really wonder what's going on in his head."
…
Duan Lingtian could vaguely hear the whispers of the crowd of Megrez Peak disciples, but he didn't pay attention to it.
Hide?
If he did that, then he wouldn't be Duan Lingtian.
"Duan Lingtian!"
In next to no time, Duan Lingtian saw He Chun had arrived as well, but he noticed that there was an injury on the corner of He Chun's mouth, and he frowned. "He Chun, who injured you?"
"It was Shi Hao. It's nothing serious, only a superficial injury. "
He Chun shook his head and smiled, with an indifferent expression.
"Shi Hao?"
Duan Lingtian frowned, and felt it was slightly strange. "Why did he injure you? You have a grudge with him as well? "
He Chun shook his head. "No. It was three days ago when I was talking to you near the Trade Hall, and was seen by some people. They told Shi Hao … Shi Hao found my place of cultivation, and asked me about you. I told him about you participating in the outer court martial competition, I'm sorry. "
As he finished speaking, He Chun had an apologetic expression.
"It's only a small matter, even if you didn't say it, he would still know today."
Duan Lingtian smiled indifferently, and didn't mind. "How is it, do you have the confidence to advance today?"
"Don't joke around. I utterly didn't plan to enter the arena today, and only came to cheer for you … But, with your strength, wanting to advance is extremely easy! "
What He Chun said was filled with confidence towards Duan Lingtian.
"It's Senior Brother He Dong!"
Right at this moment, a surprised voice caused many Megrez Peak disciples to look over.
Duan Lingtian looked over as well.
A young man around the age of 25 walked over with large strides from the side of the mountain path.
Everywhere he passed, the Megrez Peak disciples greeted him enthusiastically. "Senior Brother He Dong!"
"Senior Brother He Dong!"
"Senior Brother He Dong!"
