As he spoke, Tang Ao controlled the Eight Treasures Goose Feather Saber to block the incoming Life Spirit. He then jumped to the other half of the Destiny Platform and continued running.
One was running, the other was chasing. The two of them started a game of cat and mouse on the stage, which made the audience speechless. He originally thought that with Xiao Gudao revealing ten Life Souls and Tang Ao revealing five Life Souls, there would be an even more exciting battle than before. Who knew that it would be such a comedic outcome?
"Tsk tsk tsk! Not simple! Avoiding the strong and attacking the weak, reserving strength to temporarily avoid the sharp edge. In this competition, the victory has already begun to lean towards Tang Ao's side. "
"Yeah! If Tang Ao doesn't die in this life-and-death gamble, his future will be limitless. At the very least, the one on the stage can't compare to him. "
"Looks like there will be a good show to watch in this year's Dragon and Phoenix Rankings Tournament. I hope those fellows can come back and suppress the situation. That would be interesting. "
Thump!
The referee elder banged his clapper, and his ancient voice echoed throughout the entire Destiny Platform, "Time's up! The competition is over. According to the rules set by Xiao Gudao himself, Tang Ao will be the victor if he lasts for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. "
"Well done!"
"That's right! Good luck! "
"Junior Brother, you can do it! You have to train harder in the future! "
The surrounding disciples applauded, expressing their encouragement and appreciation. Among them, there were quite a few who were ranked on the Dragon and Phoenix Leaderboards. If one could obtain their recognition, then one would not be far from being ranked on the Dragon and Phoenix Leaderboards.
Tang Ao respectfully returned the greeting, and even if he wasn't modest, he had to pretend to be modest. "Thank you for your support, Senior and Junior Brothers. I, Tang Ao, will surely work even harder and strive to ascend the Dragon and Phoenix Rankings as soon as possible so that I can obtain good results in the inner court competition."
Xiao Gudao was so angry that his lungs were about to explode. He only returned to his courtyard with the help of Duan Batian and the others. Along the way, the disciples were pointing at him, mocking him instead of praising him. A Level Five Martial Artist was toyed around by a Level One Martial Artist. Anyone would feel disgraced.
"Damn it! I was too careless. I should have dealt with that brat immediately. It was not the time limit of a joss stick. Alas! "Xiao Gudao was extremely vexed, beating his chest and stamping his feet as he blamed himself. He had intended to embarrass Tang Ao, but who would have thought that he would help Tang Ao instead?
After this battle, Tang Ao's name spread throughout the inner sect. Some of the older inner sect disciples who were in closed-door training began to take notice of Tang Ao. In all fairness, when they were in the First Heaven, they did not have the courage and ability to cross four Heavens to challenge.
Furthermore, Tang Ao had grasped Spear Force to the phenomenal success stage. In the inner sect, the number of people who could cultivate a weapon life soul to the phenomenal success stage could be counted on one hand, and all of them were in the top ten of the Dragon and Phoenix Leaderboards. If Tang Ao's cultivation was two or three levels higher, he would definitely be able to suppress or even kill Xiao Gudao.
Once a weapon life soul reached the phenomenal success stage, it could increase the power of the soul to control the life soul, forming a certain range around oneself. Unless it was a complete suppression, it would be lured by the general trend and deviate from its original attack trajectory, rendering the Mission Soul's attack ineffective. It was probably similar to a ruyi type defensive life soul, except that the ruyi type's defense was stronger.
After returning to the manor, Tang Ao closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing, sorting out the losses and gains of this battle. Actually, Tang Ao was secretly rejoicing in his heart. If it wasn't for the fact that he had mastered the spear force and the Heaven's Eye Art, which allowed him to make preparations to block in advance, he would have lost the battle a long time ago. He might even have lost his life on the platform.
"With the soul to control the Sun Shooting Arrow Soul, the strength and speed are insufficient. I can't achieve the effect of catching the opponent off guard. I need to refine a large bow to better unleash my strength. "
"Half-step Sword Force. After this battle, I'm still some distance from the phenomenal success stage. When I descend to the lower realm to find materials to refine, I'll cultivate it to the phenomenal success stage. At that time, with two phenomenal success stage life souls, I'm afraid that no one under the 5th Heavenly Layer will be my opponent. "
"It's just that I haven't found a suitable secret manual for the World Conquering Axe Soul. When I descend to the lower realm, I'll go to the Martial Skill Pavilion to exchange for a high level axe technique martial skill. I'll practice while I travel. When I return, I'm afraid I'll be able to cultivate to the half-step Axe Force."
After making his decision, Tang Ao immediately walked towards the Martial Skill Pavilion. As usual, he met Fuyang on the upper floor of the Martial Skill Pavilion. Tang Ao was just about to greet him when Fuyang scolded him in the face.
"You little brat, you've grown up aren't you? Do you think you're so great? Grasping the phenomenal success stage and daring to cross four levels to challenge Xiao Gudao? Who gave you the courage? Can't you use your brain when doing things?
If Xiao Gudao didn't reserve his strength, or didn't make a bet of one incense stick, you'd be a corpse now. How could you even talk about entering the Dragon and Phoenix List and compete for the Inner Sect Assessment? Don't you know what's important and what's not? "
Tang Ao listened blankly, although he was scolded, but his heart was really warm. This kind of feeling was like an elder brother's strict love for him. After Fuyang finished scolding him, he calmed down a bit, cupped his fists with a smile and said, "Senior Apprentice Brother's words are correct, this junior understands."
Seeing Tang Ao's attitude, Fuyang was both angry and amused, as he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Why did you come here to pick a martial skill? Can I help you take a look? "
"My Axe Soul is still missing a martial skill, so I came here to take a look."
"You come with me, let's look around." Fuyang beckoned to Tang Ao, and the two of them walked side by side through the pile of martial skills to look for the axe type secret manual.
"This' Splitting Mountain Axe Technique 'is about the instantaneous eruption of strength, the axe can be fatal, and the strength can even split the mountains." Fuyang handed Tang Ao a brownish yellow thread-bound ancient book, the cover of the book was crooked and twisted, with the words' Splitting Mountain Axe Technique 'written in seal script.
"This is the 《Nine Overlapping Wave Axe》, which emphasizes the layering of strength. When the ninth axe is used, the strength is already several yuan's strength. Adding on the strength of one's own body, under this axe, even I can only retreat."
"This is … …"
Fuyang took Tang Ao to look through all the axe technique secret manuals here, and finally chose the 'Nine Overlapping Wave Axe' from the beginning.
"This time I came to the Mortal World to look for materials to refine a big bow, and also to cultivate my own Life Spirit and martial skills. Time is of the essence, so I will take my leave. "Tang Ao gave a bow to Fuyang, and was ready to leave.
"If you want to refine artefacts, I have a suitable candidate. Go to the Northwest, there is a village called Jade Hill, there is a Master Refiner, his name is famous in the Eastern Domain. You can go find him to help you. "Fuyang pointed out a bright path for Tang Ao, so that Tang Ao could save a lot of effort.
"Thank you, Senior Apprentice Brother!" Tang Ao once again cupped his fists to express his thanks, and turned to leave.
Packing his luggage, and bringing along the snoring Xiao Kong, Tang Ao went down the Seven Kill Clan's mountain, and ran straight to the Northwest.
