"I never imagined that this Saber Young Master has actually cultivated an Earth Rank defensive martial skill!"
"Moreover, it seems to not be an ordinary Earth Rank defensive martial skill … If it was a low-grade Earth Rank defensive martial skill, then even if it was cultivated to the Perfection Stage, it might not be able to withstand Young Master Gao's attack."
"Cultivating an Earth Rank defensive martial skill with Earth Force and Earth Concept is the way to go … An Earth Rank defensive martial skill cultivated with other Forces and Concepts is greatly lacking in the end."
"It's very likely that the Earth Rank defensive martial skill cultivated by this Saber Young Master is a middle-grade or high-grade Earth Rank defensive martial skill!"
…
The surrounding crowd of spectators moved in succession.
Even the representatives of the various factions and Imperial Kingdoms on the high platform had a grave expression on their faces.
Although a low-grade Earth Rank defensive martial skill that was executed with Force and Concept other than Earth was rare, it wasn't impossible for them to obtain it if they wanted it.
But a defensive martial skill of this level wasn't of much use to martial artists whose strengths were close to the Void Initiation Stage or even above the Void Initiation Stage.
Even if it was executed, it would be like paper before an opponent with a similar strength.
On the other hand, a middle-grade and high-grade Earth Rank defensive martial skill was different.
A middle-grade Earth Rank defensive martial skill was extremely useful to a Void Initiation Stage martial artist.
Of course, once a martial artist at the seventh level of the Void Initiation Stage or above attacked with his full strength, practically all of them were able to disregard a middle-grade Earth Rank defensive martial skill.
As for high-grade Earth Rank defensive martial skills.
They were quite useful before one stepped into the seventh level of the Void Interpretation Stage.
For a time, many gazes that looked at Long Yun were filled with envy, jealousy, and greed.
All of this was only because of the Earth Rank defensive martial skill Long Yun executed earlier.
The other eight combat rings were extremely bustling.
The eight combat ring masters were ceaselessly replaced, and their strengths grew stronger and stronger.
Whereas the combat ring Long Yun was in didn't have anyone challenge him for now.
"Duan Lingtian!"
Long Yun stared at Duan Lingtian with a burning gaze, and his eyes were filled with burning battle intent.
But.
From the beginning until the end, Duan Lingtian utterly didn't have the intention to pay attention to him.
Meanwhile, one of the three remaining young geniuses from the Bazho Imperial Kingdom had defeated the combat ring master on another combat ring and became the new combat ring master.
"You, and you … do you dare to come up and fight me?"
The young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom glanced at Duan Lingtian before looking at Su Li as he shouted with a low voice.
Suddenly, there was a burst of booing around.
"People from the Bazho Imperial Kingdom are specifically picking on soft persimmons?"
"Amongst the five young geniuses of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, besides the Saber Young Master that's already on another combat ring, the Sword Young Master has fought as well, and only the other three people haven't fought … One of them is the oldest, and he's probably a figure that's ranked in the top amongst the five great young masters. As for the other two, they shouldn't be at the level of the Five Great Young Masters. "
"These two people, the older one seems to be only twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, and the younger one seems to be only twenty-five years old."
…
The crowd of onlookers discussed animatedly.
Many people scoffed at the choice of the youth from Bazho Imperial Kingdom.
"Su Li, he wants to challenge you and me? Do you want to go first, or should I? "
Duan Lingtian looked at Su Li and asked with a smile.
"I'll go first."
As soon as Su Li finished speaking, he'd already leaped onto the combat ring and stood in confrontation with the young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom.
"You're a figure amongst the five great young masters of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom as well?"
The young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom seemed to want to confirm Su Li's identity.
"No."
Su Li spoke indifferently.
Meanwhile, the young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom heaved a sigh of relief, and his eyes were suffused with a bloody sheen. "Then don't think of returning alive this time!"
"You want to kill me?"
A strand of killing intent was faintly brewing in the depths of Su Li's gaze.
"Of course!"
The young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom spoke as a matter of course.
Duan Lingtian couldn't help but glance at the young man with pity when he heard the 'ruthless words' that the young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom spoke.
This fellow, a mere sixth level Void Prying Stage martial artist, wants to kill Su Li?
"Then let's see if you have the ability."
Su Li laughed instead of being enraged, but the killing intent in the depths of his gaze had already been brewing.
"Hmph!"
The young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom grunted coldly, then his figure flashed out like a bolt of lightning as he shot towards Su Li.
In his hand, the grade five spirit weapon's Origin Energy skyrocketed, and it carried strands of gentle blue colored energy …
Half-step Advanced Water Force!
In the sky, an ancient horned dragon silhouette was escorted by over 2,300 ancient mammoth silhouettes as they gushed towards Su Li.
Sixth level of the Void Prying Stage.
Grade five spirit weapon.
"Die!"
The young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom shouted out explosively as he pounced towards Su Li with the intention of killing Su Li with a single strike.
The young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom was only inches away.
Su Li made a move.
In Su Li's hand, Origin Energy gradually pulsated to instantly form a three foot long blade, and the tip of the blade flickered with Origin Energy, causing it to be extremely swift and fierce.
Along with Su Li's Origin Energy pulsating, an ancient horned dragon silhouette appeared out of thin air in the sky above him while being escorted by 2,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes.
"Ninth … Ninth level of the Void Prying Stage!"
Instantly, someone exclaimed in shock.
A single stone gave rise to a thousand ripples.
Only now did the people present realize that Su Li's current actions didn't utilize Force, nor did he utilize a spirit weapon.
Only pure Origin Energy drew upon the energy of the heavens and the earth to form an ancient horned dragon silhouette and 2,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes.
This was obviously the symbol of a ninth level Void Prying Stage martial artist!
"So strong!"
Presently, the young geniuses from the various powers and Imperial Kingdoms were all fighting in the ring.
This included the young geniuses that were fighting intensely on the other eight combat rings, and all of them stopped successively as they stared blankly at the phenomenon above Su Li.
"Ninth level of the Void Prying Stage! This Su Li … "
Chi Ming and Prince Sheng couldn't help but be moved.
Slap!
On the other hand, the representative of Bazho Imperial Kingdom, Wei Kun, exerted strength in his hand to shatter the armrest of his chair without him realizing it.
"He's a ninth level Void Prying Stage martial artist, quickly admit defeat!"
At the same time, Wei Kun hurriedly sent a voice transmission to pierce into the ears of the young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom that was pouncing towards Su Li.
But, would he still be in time?
Swish!
On the combat ring, after Su Li condensed a three foot long blade with Origin Energy in his hand, he abruptly pierced it towards the combat ring beneath his feet.
Right at this instant, strands of extremely sharp aura suddenly stretched out from the three foot long blade in Su Li's hand …
Whoosh!
At that moment, another silhouette of an ancient horned dragon appeared in the sky.
Bang!
At the same time, the three foot long blade condensed from Origin Energy in Su Li's hand descended onto the combat ring.
Whereas he was instead carried flying by the recoil, and he easily avoided the menacing strike of the young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom.
In the next moment, Su Li moved behind the young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom.
"I admit …"
Meanwhile, the young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom received Wei Kun's voice transmission, and he opened his mouth with the intention of admitting defeat.
But, he didn't have the time to say the word 'lose.'
Swish!
A three foot long blade that was like a stroke of genius pierced through his back.
Along with the three foot long blade condensed from Origin Energy dispersing.
Bang!
Fresh blood sprayed violently from the chest and back of the young man from Bazho Imperial Kingdom, and his entire body fell into a pool of blood.
After twitching a few times, he completely lost all signs of life.
Dead!
But, besides the few people from Bazho Imperial Kingdom, the others didn't have the time to care about his life and death.
The gazes of most people descended onto the combat ring in unison, and it descended onto the two ancient horned dragon silhouettes and 2,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes that were accumulating force and waiting to attack in the sky above the red clothed young man.
"One … First level Sword Concept!"
"Ninth level of the Void Prying Stage without using a spirit weapon, yet with the addition of the strength of an ancient horned dragon … This red clothed young man from the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom has comprehended first level Sword Concept!"
"This red clothed young man has already taken half a step into the Void Initiation Stage … He's entirely capable of breaking through to the Void Initiation Stage before the Dynasty Martial Competition of the Darkhan Dynasty begins!"
"He'll surely occupy one of the ten positions today."
…
The surrounding crowd of spectators discussed animatedly.
Su Li's strength had shocked them.
"Ninth level Void Prying Stage, first level Sword Concept before the age of 30 …"
King Yong's sonorous voice slowly sounded out.
"What's your name?"
King Yong's gaze descended onto the red clothed young man as he asked.
Instantly, many young geniuses present looked at Su Li with envy.
After all.
Not just anyone was able to make King Yong take the initiative to ask for their name.
"Su Li."
On the combat ring, Su Li nodded to King Yong in a manner that was neither servile nor overbearing.
"Su Li, I'll remember you."
King Yong lightly smiled as he nodded, and he was extremely kind to Su Li.
"Alas … Revered Elder Wei, I'm truly sorry. These little fellows are too impulsive and don't know how to show mercy. "
Chi Ming looked at Wei Kun and shook his head as he sighed, and then he said via voice transmission, "Why don't you take the remaining two young geniuses of your Bazho Imperial Kingdom and leave … So as to avoid only two people from the seven of you returning in the end."
"Chi Ming!"
Wei Kun's body trembled, and he was angered to the point his face flushed red and his eyes almost split apart. His throat felt sweet, and he almost spat out blood.
On the other hand, the remaining two young geniuses of the Bazho Imperial Kingdom glanced at each other, and they were able to see terror in each other's eyes.
Meanwhile, no one else ascended the combat ring Su Li was in to battle him.
The two great young geniuses of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom each occupied a combat ring.
"The Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom can be considered to be in the limelight this time!"
"Yeah, such two monstrous geniuses have actually appeared in a tiny Imperial Kingdom …"
"If nothing unexpected happens, these two ought to be able to obtain one of the 10 positions to head to the Darkhan Dynasty."
…
Many people looked favorably upon Su Li and Long Yun.
Time silently passed by.
Luo Zhan and Chen Shao Shuai ascended the other combat rings successively.
But unfortunately, with their strengths, they were still unable to become arena masters that no one could challenge.
"Duan Lingtian, the two of us probably have no fate with those 10 positions … Everything will depend on you, Su Li, and Long Yun."
Luo Zhan sighed.
"No wonder they say that the experts in the Empire are numerous like the clouds … I originally thought that my strength could already be considered to be not bad since I broke through to the sixth level of the Void Prying Stage. But today, if I don't possess a cultivation at the seventh level of the Void Prying Stage or above, it would be extremely difficult for me to become one of the final nine arena masters. "
Chen Shao Shuai deeply agreed.
"Don't be discouraged … Besides Su Li and Long Yun, all these martial artists at the seventh level of the Void Prying Stage or above are older than all of you. When all of you are of the same age as them, you might not be inferior to them. "
