Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled when he saw Zuo Qing's current attitude towards He Dong.
Looks like his Senior Sister Zuo Qing was still unable to accept the fact that she lost to He Dong in the outer court martial competition the other day.
At that time, it was only because Zuo Qing made a mistake that she lost to He Dong …
Otherwise, the two of them might not be able to determine a victor.
He Dong laughed bitterly, then glanced at Duan Lingtian with a pleading gaze.
Duan Lingtian looked at Zuo Qing and lightly smiled. "Senior Sister Zuo Qing, there's something you might not know … He Dong has already broken through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage a few days ago."
Zuo Qing's expression froze when she heard Duan Lingtian, as she obviously didn't expect that He Dong would break through before her.
After a short moment, Zuo Qing looked at He Dong and grunted in a low voice.
Although she was unwilling to admit it, she still had to admit it.
Even if He Dong defeated her in the outer court martial competition the other day purely by luck.
Now, He Dong had broken through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage and was already not on the same level as her, so he could easily defeat her.
"Hmph!"
Right at this moment, a cold snort sounded out by Duan Lingtian's ears, then a familiar and ear piercing voice sounded out. "He Dong, I never expected that you've broken through as well … If there's a chance, let's spar?"
Duan Lingtian frowned.
He didn't see the person, but only heard the voice, and he'd already discerned who the owner of the voice was.
Hu Xue Feng!
The personal disciple of the Merak Peak's Master.
From what Hu Xue Feng said now, he could discern that he'd broken through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage as well.
Hu Xue Feng had just stepped onto the Test Platform, and obviously heard what Duan Lingtian said to Zuo Qing. He walked over in large strides, then looked at Zuo Qing and his eyes narrowed. "Zuo Qing, now, amongst us, it seems that only you haven't broken through … You have to work hard. Haha … "
Hu Xue Feng's words weren't without ridicule.
"Hu Xue Feng!"
Zuo Qing's delicate and pretty face sank, and her beautiful eyes seemed to have a trace of rage arose within.
"What? You've become angry from embarrassment?"
Hu Xue Feng started laughing. "Zuo Qing, it's not that I'm looking down on you … But even if I didn't break through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage, you're still not a match for me. As for now, you, a seventh level Origin Core Stage martial artist, I, Hu Xue Feng, only need a single sword strike to defeat you! "
Zuo Qing was so angry that her delicate body trembled. Her pretty face turned ashen as she said coldly, "You can try!"
"I'm happy to oblige."
Hu Xue Feng smiled brightly, with a bit of arrogance between his brows. He did not put Zuo Qing in his eyes at all.
At this moment, the other outer court disciples who were preparing to participate in the inner court disciple test noticed the commotion and gathered around to watch the show …
Just when everyone thought that Hu Xuefeng and Zuo Qing were about to fight.
"Hmph!"
A cold snort that seemed to have come from an ice cave brought with it an extreme coldness, causing the bodies of the people present to tremble uncontrollably.
For a time, the gazes of everyone present fell onto Duan Lingtian who was beside Zuo Qing.
This cold snort came from Duan Lingtian.
Zuo Qing was Li Fei's Senior Sister.
Li Fei was Duan Lingtian's woman.
Duan Lingtian naturally took Zuo Qing to be his Senior Sister. Now, his Senior Sister was being provoked and humiliated right in front of him …
With his temper, would he be able to endure it?
The answer was no.
"Hu Xue Feng!"
Duan Lingtian's gaze went slightly cold as it descended onto Hu Xue Feng, and the corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. "So what if you've broken through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage? Do you believe that I only need a single sword strike to kill you!? "
I only need a single sword strike to kill you!?
Duan Lingtian's straightforward words entered into Hu Xue Feng's ears, causing Hu Xue Feng's face to instantly stiffen, and his eyes emitted a fierce light.
Hu Xue Feng's body was angered to the point of trembling, and he was enraged to the limit.
"Duan Lingtian, what're you complacent about!? You've only consumed the Profound Origin Fruit to possess your current cultivation. If it wasn't for that, why would I, Hu Xue Feng, be afraid of a sixth level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple like you!? "
Hu Xue Feng's face sank, and his icy cold eyes stared fixedly at Duan Lingtian.
He'd heard of the matter of Duan Lingtian breaking through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage one month ago …
At that time, his rage shot to the skies!
As far as he was concerned, that Profound Origin Fruit ought to be his, but it was seized by Duan Lingtian halfway through.
Otherwise, once he consumed the Profound Origin Fruit, his cultivation might have already broken through to the ninth level of the Origin Core Stage!
"Haha …."
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but laugh when he heard Hu Xue Feng, and after he finished laughing, his gaze focused onto Hu Xue Feng. "Hu Xue Feng, on that day, during the outer court martial competition, I was only a sixth level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple. You, a high and mighty seventh level Origin Core Stage outer court disciple, why didn't you dare battle me?"
"Now, do you think that because you've broken through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage, you have the confidence to think that I, who was at the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage, wasn't a match for you?"
As he finished speaking, the sneer on the corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth grew deeper.
"Of course!"
Hu Xue Feng sneered, and his eyes emitted a strand of cold light. "If you were still a sixth level Origin Core Stage martial artist, then the current me would only need a single sword strike to kill you!"
"Shameless!"
Zuo Qing couldn't help but spit when she heard Hu Xue Feng.
The surrounding crowd of outer court disciples all looked at Hu Xue Feng with strange expressions.
When this Hu Xue Feng's cultivation was at the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage, he didn't have the guts to battle the sixth level Origin Core Stage Duan Lingtian.
Now that he'd broken through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage, he was boasting here, saying that he would be able to kill the former sixth level Origin Core Stage Duan Lingtian with a single sword strike …
Absurd!
You, Hu Xue Feng, have broken through, and you still want others to stay where they are and be oppressed by you?
Simply the ravings of a fool!
"Haha …"
Duan Lingtian laughed once more, and his eyes flickered with a bright light as he stared at Hu Xue Feng. "Hu Xue Feng, according to what you mean, if the current you were to face the me from a month ago before I consumed the Profound Origin Fruit, then you wouldn't be cowardly to the point of not daring to battle me? Even to the extent that … You would be able to kill me with a single sword strike? "
"Of course!"
Hu Xue Feng had a proud expression, as he who'd broken through to the eighth level of the Origin Core Stage was incomparably confident.
If Duan Lingtian was still a sixth level Origin Core Stage martial artist now, then he had the confidence to be able to kill Duan Lingtian with a single sword strike.
"Alright."
Duan Lingtian started laughing, and a brilliant smile appeared on his face. "Since you said so … Then I'll give you a chance!"
Duan Lingtian's words caused most of the people present to be stunned.
They didn't understand the meaning of Duan Lingtian's words.
Zuo Qing and He Dong looked at Duan Lingtian as if they were lost in thought …
As for Hu Xue Feng, his face sank slightly, and a bad premonition arose within his heart.
"Hu Xue Feng!"
Duan Lingtian looked at Hu Xue Feng, then abruptly took a step forward as his body emitted battle intent that shot into the sky, and his fierce gaze descended onto Hu Xue Feng.
"I, Duan Lingtian, am willing to suppress my strength to the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage and battle you on the life and death arena! If I use strength that surpasses the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage, then I'm willing to commit suicide on the spot! Do you dare?! "
Do you dare?!
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, in the eyes of the surrounding crowd of outer court disciples, the Duan Lingtian before them was so lofty.
It was as if he'd transformed into an invincible god of war!
Overbearing and fearless!
"What a Duan Lingtian!"
He Dong looked at Duan Lingtian and couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart.
He noticed that at this moment, he was completely convinced by Duan Lingtian, and it was difficult for him to arouse the desire to compare with Duan Lingtian.
"Junior Sister, why didn't you come with me today … This is your man!"
Zuo Qing's gaze was complicated, and her eyes revealed slight envy.
If a woman was able to obtain the love of a man like this in her lifetime, then she would have no regrets even if she died!
"Senior Brother Duan Lingtian, a true man!"
"From today onwards, my idol is Senior Brother Duan Lingtian."
…
Some of the surrounding outer court disciples were excited to the point their faces flushed red, as if the person that stood there and issued the life and death arena invitation to Hu Xue Feng wasn't Duan Lingtian, but was instead themselves.
In next to no time, the gazes of everyone descended onto Hu Xue Feng.
Hu Xue Feng had repeatedly said earlier that the current him was able to kill the sixth level Origin Core Stage Duan Lingtian with a single strike of his sword …
Now, Duan Lingtian used a cultivation at the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage to invite Hu Xue Feng to battle in the life and death arena!
Did Hu Xue Feng dare accept the challenge?
Hu Xue Feng's expression was terrifyingly gloomy.
He dared speak those words earlier because he had blind confidence towards his own strength, and felt that if Duan Lingtian was still that sixth level Origin Core Stage martial artist from before, he would surely be able to easily kill Duan Lingtian.
But now, Duan Lingtian actually wanted to suppress his strength to the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage to battle him in the life and death arena!
As he looked at Duan Lingtian who stood there with a face full of confidence and battle intent that shot into the sky, his heart was shaken.
Was he really able to kill the sixth level Origin Core Stage Duan Lingtian?
Although, now, he was still sure of this.
But he didn't dare open his mouth to accept Duan Lingtian's life and death arena invitation …. He hesitated.
Duan Lingtian's current confidence caused traces of fear to arise within his heart.
If he wasn't confident, would Duan Lingtian issue such a challenge?
Putting himself in Duan Lingtian's shoes, Hu Xue Feng felt even more how mysterious and terrifying Duan Lingtian was. Perhaps, Duan Lingtian was really able to kill him with a cultivation at the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage ….
After all, Duan Lingtian used a cultivation at the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage to kill Shi Hao, who was at the seventh level of the Origin Core Stage!
Duan Lingtian's methods were too strange.
"Tsk tsk …."
When he saw Hu Xue Feng's expression that flickered between a livid and ashen expression, Duan Lingtian seemed to be able to see through Hu Xue Feng's state of mind, and he ridiculed. "Hu Xue Feng, the personal disciple of the Merak Peak's Peak Master? You're only so-so! Only a coward. "
Coward?
Duan Lingtian's words caused Hu Xue Feng to be filled with rage, and he glared angrily at Duan Lingtian.
"What? You're still unwilling to admit it now? Didn't you say earlier that with your current strength, you'd be able to kill me, who's at the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage, with a single sword strike? Now, I've suppressed my cultivation to the sixth level of the Origin Core Stage with the intention of battling you in the life and death arena. You hesitated for a long time and didn't dare accept the challenge …. Isn't this still a coward? "
The corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth curled into a cold smile, and every single word he said struck at Hu Xue Feng's heart.
