Not far away from He Dong, Zuo Qing stood there, and her pretty face went pale from fright as well.
Her heartbeat slightly sped up.
Junior Sister has really found an extraordinary man ….
He actually really killed Shi Hao.
Another miracle!
"No … Impossible … Impossible …."
The Megrez Peak outer court elder, Zhao Lin, had now recovered from his shock as well, and as he glanced at Shi Hao's corpse that lay on the first combat ring, he ceaselessly shook his head, unwilling to believe that all this was true.
As far as he was concerned, Duan Lingtian, who should have died at Shi Hao's hands, had actually made a strong counterattack and killed Shi Hao instead!
Traces of unwillingness arose within his heart.
He didn't care about Shi Hao's life or death.
But now that Shi Hao was dead, it also meant that everything he did this time was only useless ….
He had failed at the last step!
"Duan Lingtian …. I've still underestimated you."
After a short moment, Zhao Lin caught his breath, and his pair of fierce eyes were suffused with frightening cold lights as they descended onto Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian's strength had exceeded his expectations!
"No …. I didn't underestimate you, I underestimated the Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll!"
Now, the yearning in Zhao Lin's heart towards the Muscle Meridian Rebirth Scroll had almost reached the point of qi deviation.
Duan Lingtian stood on the first combat ring and seemed to have noticed something, his brows slightly raised, and with a glance, he looked towards the distant Zhao Lin ….
The frenzied yearning in Zhao Lin's eyes caused Duan Lingtian's heart to jerk.
Duan Lingtian's face sank.
This Zhao Lin seems to have not given up ….
After heaving a sigh of relief, Duan Lingtian withdrew his gaze from Zhao Lin, then his figure flashed out as if transforming into a spirit serpent, leaving the first combat ring.
Meanwhile, the crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciples on Mizar Platform reacted to what had happened.
"Duan Lingtian's strength is too terrifying."
"The number one disciple in our Seven Star Sword Sect's outer court was so easily killed by him!"
"Now that Shi Hao is dead, the title of 'number one disciple of the outer court' will change hands."
"If Duan Lingtian is able to seize the first place in the outer court martial competition today, then he would be the well-deserved number one disciple in the outer court!"
"I'm looking forward to it!"
…
The gazes of the numerous Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciples descended onto Duan Lingtian, and their gazes were filled with burning anticipation.
At this time, Duan Lingtian returned to the center of the arena.
"Not bad."
The Peak Master of Mizar Peak, Zheng Fan, looked at Duan Lingtian and lightly smiled.
Duan Lingtian returned a smile and returned to Zuo Qing's side.
"Duan Lingtian, how did you see through Shi Hao's 《Ninety-Nine Sword Technique》?"
He Dong took a few steps forward and stood beside Duan Lingtian. He raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.
Zuo Qing looked curiously at Duan Lingtian as well.
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled and said in a light voice, "Shi Hao can only blame himself for being unlucky … His sword skill is extremely brilliant, and it's difficult for an ordinary person to see through it. But unfortunately, I've studied inscriptions for a period of time with an Inscription Master, and I know how to utilize Spiritual Force. My Spiritual Force extended out and easily broke through his sword skill. "
Hiss!
He Dong gasped, and his face was filled with shock. "You possess such a cultivation at such an age … I originally thought that you were wholeheartedly devoted to cultivation. You, you actually studied the inscription patterns? "
What a martial artist feared the most when cultivating was to be distracted.
Even He Dong himself, although he had a decent natural talent in weapons crafting, he didn't study weapons crafting and become a weapons crafting master, because his ambition wasn't in the Dao of weapons crafting.
So, he gave up his decent natural talent in weapons crafting and wholeheartedly devoted himself to cultivating in the Martial Dao.
"I only studied it for a few days."
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled.
But, He Dong naturally wouldn't not believe what Duan Lingtian said now.
Now that Duan Lingtian was able to utilize Spiritual Force, it could be imagined that Duan Lingtian's attainments in the Dao of inscriptions would surely not be low.
Although Zuo Qing didn't speak, a tempestuous storm still arose in her heart.
At this moment, a trace of envy couldn't help but arise in her heart …
She envied her Junior Sister for finding such a good husband.
He Dong's eyes flickered as he sighed with emotion. "Shi Hao was able to become the number one disciple in the outer court and was able to surpass me, Zuo Qing, and Hu Xue Feng by relying on his high grade Profound Rank sword skill, Nine-Nine Sword Technique … Today, he lost at your hands, and his loss wasn't unjust."
Actually, in He Dong's heart, what he was most curious about was what method Duan Lingtian used to kill Shi Hao …
As far as he was concerned, Duan Lingtian's method had overturned his past understanding of strength.
In the past, in his eyes, so long as one's strength was strong enough, it was sufficient to crush everything!
But today, he witnessed with his own eyes how Duan Lingtian used the strength of 101 ancient mammoths to kill Shi Hao who displayed the strength of 127 ancient mammoths …
Only now did he understand that strength didn't represent everything!
In the past, he was only a frog at the bottom of a well.
But He Dong didn't know.
Now, not only him, even the Mizar Peak's Master, Zheng Fan, and the 10 Mizar Peak outer court elders present had similar feelings as He Dong.
Of course, even though He Dong was curious about Duan Lingtian's method, he also yearned to investigate in depth.
But he didn't open his mouth to ask.
Because he knew what he should ask, and what he shouldn't ask.
Duan Lingtian's method was obviously a method that surpassed martial skills and strength …
This kind of method was the greatest trump card for anyone!
It was impossible to easily reveal to others.
"Hmph!"
Hu Xue Feng stood in the distance with an incomparably gloomy expression. Never had he imagined that Duan Lingtian would actually kill Shi Hao.
This was something that he'd never thought of before …
As far as he was concerned, Duan Lingtian would surely die if he went against Shi Hao.
But the outcome had exceeded his expectations.
Duan Lingtian had killed Shi Hao instead!
Although he was unwilling to admit it, he had to admit that even if it was him, it was impossible for him to kill Shi Hao so straightforwardly.
"Dammit! How the hell did he do it? "
Hu Xue Feng noticed that when he faced Duan Lingtian now, traces of fear and terror actually faintly arose in the depths of his heart.
This caused him to feel incomparably ashamed and resentful!
A kid that was a little over 20 had actually caused him to involuntarily have such feelings …
Dammit!
"Alright, the challenges continue!"
In next to no time, Zheng Fan spoke out once more and announced that the outer court martial competition would continue.
The following challenges proceeded like a raging fire …
But all the challengers had reached a common tacit understanding, and no one dared challenge Duan Lingtian by name.
What a joke!
Duan Lingtian had just killed the number one disciple in the outer court, Shi Hao. Although they were conceited, they weren't conceited to the point of thinking that they were stronger than Shi Hao.
Moreover, they'd clearly seen the battle from before …
From the beginning until the end, that Shi Hao didn't even have the chance to admit defeat before being killed by Duan Lingtian.
So long as they recalled the scene from before, they couldn't help but shudder.
Duan Lingtian's methods were truly too strange!
Along with the challengers issuing challenges to the outer court disciples that were temporarily ranked in the top 10, the top 10 people of the second round of the outer court martial competition were finally confirmed.
The 10 people that included Duan Lingtian, Zuo Qing, He Dong, and Hu Xue Feng were ranked in the top 10 of the outer court martial competition this time.
"Now, the top 10 people of the outer court martial competition have already been confirmed … What will be carried out next is the ranking battles. Based on strength, list out the specific rankings of the top 10 people … "
Along with Zheng Fan's voice sounding out, everyone knew that the outer court martial competition this time had already come to an end.
"Every two people amongst the 10 of you will have a battle with each other … In other words, any one of you will have to battle the other nine people! There will be an elder recording for all of you, and the person that wins nine battles will be ranked first in the outer court martial competition this time! "
"The person that wins eight battles will be ranked second, the person that wins seven battles will be ranked third, and so on and so forth."
Zheng Fan looked at Duan Lingtian and the other 10 people as he spoke out once more.
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart.
In this way, every single one of the 10 people would have a battle with each other …
These rules couldn't be any fairer.
"Duan Lingtian, you go first."
A voice sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears, and only now did he notice that it was Zheng Fan speaking to him.
Duan Lingtian didn't refuse, and nodded before ascending the combat ring.
"Now, any of you that have the confidence to defeat Duan Lingtian can go up and battle …"
Zheng Fan looked at He Dong, Zuo Qing, Hu Xue Feng, and the other 10 people as he spoke indifferently.
But, no one made a move.
Earlier, the strength Duan Lingtian revealed when he killed Shi Hao caused all of them to be fearful, and they didn't have the slightest confidence.
Even Hu Xue Feng was obediently standing on the spot now.
He didn't dare go up!
Duan Lingtian's methods were too strange, and even Shi Hao was easily killed by him.
Although he was conceited and felt that he could defeat Shi Hao by relying on his grade seven spirit sword that provided an amplification of 29% …
But he'd never thought that he would be able to easily defeat Shi Hao.
"Didn't Senior Brother Hu Xue Feng ask Shi Hao to give Duan Lingtian to him earlier? Now that he has the chance, why isn't he going up? "
"You can't even discern this? Senior Brother Hu Xue Feng didn't know of Duan Lingtian's strength earlier, and now that he's seen the scene of Duan Lingtian killing Shi Hao, he's surely given up on the thought of fighting Duan Lingtian. "
"Looks like Senior Brother Hu Xue Feng only knows how to bully the weak and fear the strong."
…
The voices of the numerous Seven Star Sword Sect outer court disciples entered into Hu Xue Feng's ears, and it caused Hu Xue Feng's body to tremble as if he was struck by lightning, and his expression was extremely unsightly.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Hu Xue Feng's gaze descended onto Duan Lingtian, and it was filled with fierceness and ruthlessness.
As far as he was concerned, the culprit behind all this was Duan Lingtian!
He pushed all the blame onto Duan Lingtian.
But even then, he still didn't dare ascend the combat ring to battle Duan Lingtian …
Because he was afraid that he would be killed by Duan Lingtian.
On the combat ring, Duan Lingtian stood there without moving like a mountain, as if he'd transformed into an invincible god of war, and no one dared battle him.
Zheng Fan wasn't surprised by this scene, and he said indifferently, "After the time of ten breaths, if no one ascends the combat ring to battle Duan Lingtian … then the other nine people will be considered to have admitted defeat. Duan Lingtian's battle record is nine battles and nine victories … The battle record of the other nine people is one battle and one loss! "
