Song Jia departed, leaving with tears in her eyes. Although there were many injustices in the world, there were still some kind-hearted people.
Nobody paid attention to Song Jia's departure. At this moment, the gazes of the crowd were all focused on Qin Wentian and Jin Zhan.
As the white-robed young man took three steps forward, the pressure in the air was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe. However, this wasn't sufficient to cause them to be startled. What shocked them was that when the third step landed, Jin Zhan actually coughed out a mouthful of blood.
The Golden Fire Aristocrat Clan was one of the three great clans in Xuan King City. Although Jin Zhan wasn't the most talented disciple in the Golden Fire Aristocrat Clan, he could still be considered an extraordinary character with outstanding talent and combat prowess. How could ordinary fourth-level Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns be his opponent, let alone third-level Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns?
However, Qin Wentian didn't even need to make a move to deal with him. Not only that, the aura radiating from Qin Wentian truly indicated that he was at the third level of Heavenly Dipper.
Suppression, this wasn't a battle on the same level.
Jin Zhan paled. At this moment, he had a feeling that the gazes of the entire world were on him, watching him being humiliated.
Coughing out a mouthful of blood, Jin Zhan howled in rage, as though he was still unwilling to give up.
But just as his aura surged forth, Qin Wentian's right foot stomped down once more. In that instant, Jin Zhan felt a boundless sword intent cascading down from the air above him. That formless sword intent transformed into a true killing intent that penetrated through his body, directly piercing into him.
"Chi …" This time around, Jin Zhan's aura was completely shattered. He violently coughed out a mouthful of blood as the golden flames around him were completely shattered. Even his Astral Nova seemed to be on the verge of cracking.
"There's even the will of the Mandate of Sword-infused within. How powerful." Jin Zhan's heart trembled. Right now, his aura fluctuated wildly as he found it hard to breathe. Qin Wentian was already not far away from him, yet Qin Wentian was still standing there as though nothing had happened, quietly staring at him. This caused Jin Zhan to feel an intense sense of humiliation.
At this moment, a gust of wind gusted by. Jin Zhan only felt Qin Wentian's silhouette drifting past him, directly disregarding him.
Qin Wentian stopped close to the black-robed old man and turned around to look at Shang Yue, "This treasure belongs to me now."
Qin Wentian had won the battle for the treasure, so the Space Pen naturally belonged to Qin Wentian.
The black-robed old man nodded his head slightly. He felt lucky that Qin Wentian had won the battle for the treasure. The cultivation technique that Qin Wentian had provided was even more tempting to him. However, he did not dare to offend Countess Shang Yue, which was why he had no other choice.
"Wait."
As the sound of Qin Wentian's voice faded, Yin Cheng interjected. He stared at Qin Wentian as a sinister light flashed in his eyes. "This brat is truly treacherous, he actually concealed his cultivation base, saying that he's at the third level of Heavenly Dipper, using such a deceitful method to seize the treasure. I'm afraid this battle doesn't count."
The eyes of the spectators lit up. Yin Cheng's personality was extremely crafty, and he loved to use schemes and plots. His words were undoubtedly a reminder to the crowd.
"That's right, this brat's cultivation base definitely isn't at the third level of Heavenly Dipper. To think that the princess would be deceived by him."
"This brat is so sinister, he deserves death."
The various geniuses standing at the side of the cliff all spoke, berating Qin Wentian.
From their words, it was as though Qin Wentian was an unpardonable sinner. Only death would suffice to vent their anger.
Upon seeing such a scene, Qin Wentian didn't feel strange at all. He was as calm as ever.
In the Treasure Seizing Assembly of the Heavenly Mountain, if one was willing to pay an equal price, the outcome would be decided by battle. The stronger one would obtain the treasure.
Right now, although he had defeated Jin Zhan, it only meant that he was stronger than Jin Zhan. Yet these people still believed that with their strength, they could easily crush him, Qin Wentian. Hence, how could he be willing to disappoint the princess? No matter what, he wouldn't allow Qin Wentian to obtain the treasure so easily.
"Yes, your Mandate of Swords is so powerful, you must have concealed your cultivation base." Jin Zhan seemed to have found a straw to clutch at. He turned his head, his eyes gleaming with sharpness as he stared at Qin Wentian.
"So what if I concealed my cultivation base? Who was the victor in the treasure seizing battle?" Qin Wentian didn't deny it. He swept his gaze over to the crowd as he faintly spoke.
"Hehe." Yin Cheng's lips curled into a cold smile. "Seems like you have admitted it yourself. Since this is the case, the princess must have been deceived by you. That's why she sent Jin Zhan to fight in her stead. If not, given the princess's strength, how could you contend against her?"
"Is that so?" Qin Wentian turned his gaze onto Shang Yue as he spoke, "I, Qin, have already said that I will only fight a single battle. I will keep my word."
As the sound of his voice faded, a terrifying sharpness gleamed in Qin Wentian's eyes, sweeping over the crowd as it pierced towards Yin Cheng.
Yin Cheng's lips curled into a cold smile. He slammed his palm onto the chair he was sitting on and instantly, several silhouettes dashed out from his side, all of them lunging towards Qin Wentian.
"Seems like you don't place my words in your eyes at all." Qin Wentian icily spoke. As he spoke, a resplendent light erupted forth from the centre of his brows. Yin Cheng, who was smiling, abruptly felt his mind shuddering violently. When he stared into Qin Wentian's eyes, he felt as though he had fallen into an endless abyss of darkness. It was as though countless demons were slaughtering their way into his mind.
"Do you want to die?" A voice rang out in his mind, causing Yin Cheng to scream in agony. Those experts who were rushing towards Qin Wentian turned their heads only to see Yin Cheng clutching his head with both his hands, as though he was in extreme pain. He roared, "COME BACK!"
Those experts exchanged glances before turning their gazes onto Qin Wentian. One of the experts at the peak of the fourth-level of Heavenly Dipper was still unwilling to give up. He stepped out, causing the earth to tremble.
"BANG!"
Astral light erupted as the stars shifted. The spectators only saw a beam of blood-red light flashing past.
Qin Wentian returned to his original location, as though he had never moved at all. That expert who stepped towards Qin Wentian had fresh blood dripping from his throat. His hands clutched his throat as an expression of unwillingness flashed in his eyes. He died just like that?
A light sound rang out as that expert collapsed onto the ground. The spectators in the surroundings all had looks of shock on their faces as they stared at the white-robed young man.
This young man actually used a killing move.
Not only that, his strength was so terrifying. Even fourth-level Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns weren't his opponent.
Even if Shang Yue was the one fighting, she wouldn't have the confidence to defeat this young man.
"Revealing your killing intent so many times, do you really think I, Qin, am easy to bully?" Qin Wentian coldly snorted. Instantly, a terrifying sword pierced through Yin Cheng's head. Yin Cheng screamed in agony as he clutched his head with both his hands, as an expression of extreme agony appeared on his face, causing the spectators to be extremely shocked.
What methods did this young man use exactly? Could it be that he was proficient in spiritual-type attacks? To think that he could actually cause Yin Cheng to be in such a miserable state.
Yin Cheng's subordinates retreated to his side, yet their gazes were still fixed on Qin Wentian.
"Hmph."
Qin Wentian coldly snorted, sparing Yin Cheng. Only now did Yin Cheng regain his senses. That sinister countenance of his had already transformed into a sinister one as he stared fixedly at Qin Wentian.
However, Qin Wentian shifted his gaze over, staring at Shang Yue as he spoke, "Can't afford to lose?"
Shang Yue stared at the white-robed young man in front of her. At this moment, she naturally understood that she had misjudged him. If this young man didn't conceal his cultivation base, he would definitely be a terrifying demon-level character, comparable to the Heaven Chosen of the various great clans or sects.
Although Yin Cheng's cultivation base was slightly lower, only at the third level of Heavenly Dipper, his talent was already extremely high. After all, Yin Cheng was extremely young, yet when facing against this young man, he was easily killed.
"Since I've lost, this treasure shall be yours." Shang Yue coldly spoke, her words causing the spectators to draw in a breath of cold air.
Princess Shang Yue came to the Heavenly Mountain Treasure Seizing Assembly to compete against this white-robed young man, yet she actually lost.
No matter how this battle progressed, the final victor belonged to the white-robed young man who had yet to display his outstanding talent in Xuan King City. He appeared to be only around twenty-five years of age.
Qin Wentian turned his gaze over, staring at the black-robed old man. He took out an ancient scroll and passed it over to the black-robed old man, "The cultivation art is recorded within, please take a look."
The black-robed old man nodded and received the cultivation art. His will instantly sank into it and an instant later, his eyes gleamed with sharpness as he passed the spatial brush to Qin Wentian. After which, his silhouette flickered as he directly departed this place.
In the Heavenly Mountain Treasure Seizing Assembly, many of those who presented their treasures would appear with their faces covered. After obtaining the item they wanted, they would immediately flee to avoid any mishaps. After all, it wasn't uncommon for people to kill others for treasures.
After Qin Wentian received the spatial brush, he directly kept it away. This caused Shang Yue to stare at him with a look of reluctance in her eyes. She then spoke again, "This spatial brush has already been obtained by you. Now, are you willing to transfer it to me? Whatever price you want, feel free to state it."
The spectators were all taken aback, they didn't expect Princess Shang Yue to be so stubborn, still wanting to obtain the spatial brush.
Even if Qin Wentian agreed to the exchange, he would definitely demand an exorbitant price. At the very least, the price would be higher than the cultivation art he took out.
"Not exchanging." Qin Wentian straightforwardly replied, his words causing Shang Yue's countenance to stiffen. She then spoke again, "Why don't you reconsider?"
"I, Qin, don't wish to waste my breath." Qin Wentian spoke. To him, the spatial brush was extremely useful. How could he exchange it with Shang Yue?
Shang Yue, as the princess of the Xuan King Manor, was an extremely rare beauty. In addition to her outstanding talent, who wouldn't show her some respect? There had never been anyone who rejected her in such a manner before.
Biting her lips, Shang Yue stared at Qin Wentian as hatred filled her heart. This person really didn't know what was good for him.
After Qin Wentian obtained the spatial brush, he didn't leave. Under the bewildered gazes of the spectators, he returned to the pavilion and casually sat there, as though nothing had happened at all.
Or maybe, he didn't place the matter earlier in his heart.
The coldness in Yin Cheng's eyes grew even more intense. In the depths of his eyes, killing intent could be seen flickering.
"Let's continue." Yin Cheng's state of mind was also extraordinary. At this moment, he was actually able to stabilize his state of mind. The Heavenly Mountain Treasure Seizing Assembly had yet to end.
The reason why Qin Wentian didn't leave was because he wanted to see if there were any other treasures he could obtain. After all, he had never thought that he would be able to obtain the spatial brush earlier.
Grand Shang Empire had an abundance of resources, its level was even higher compared to Grand Xia. The Heavenly Mountain Treasure Seizing Assembly was the largest trading event ever held in Xuan King City. Maybe, there might even be some treasures he wanted!
