Tang Ao knew that it was time for him to show his true strength. Otherwise, the Hundred Battle Spear Soul would never be able to defeat the Heavenly Halberd!
With a loud shout, under everyone's shocked gazes, Tang Ao's aura surged and emitted a powerful wave of energy.
Not far away, the Fifth Elder and the others narrowed their eyes and stared unblinkingly at Tang Ao on the stage.
"Pop!"
A crisp sound echoed and a palm-sized Azure Lotus appeared above Tang Ao's head. It didn't emit any dazzling radiance or oppressive aura. It was strangely calm as it quietly floated in the air.
Gu Yue's eyes showed a trace of surprise. He did not wait any longer. He held the Heavenly Halberd with both hands and swept it forward like a real weapon.
"You can't do it!"
Tang Ao's voice was calm, vaguely emitting the demeanor of an emperor.
The crowd was a little dazed. On the stage, the young man with the Blue Lotus gave off a feeling of a Dao Venerable descending to the world. It was as if he was a dormant Great Emperor waiting to wake up.
"Kill!"
Gu Yue continued charging over as he roared. The Eight Heavenly Halberd, which had been augmented by the nomological Life Soul, displayed its might without a doubt. It was many times stronger than the Tiger Wing Saber, causing a series of exclamations.
On the other hand, the Blue Lotus above Tang Ao's head was very calm. It flew on its own to meet the Heavenly Halberd.
When the Indestructible Blue Lotus was a few inches away from the Heavenly Halberd, something happened.
All of a sudden, a strong murderous aura erupted from it, sweeping through every corner of the arena in an instant.
Then, a shocking Indestructible Sword Will appeared. It cut through the air and hit the Heavenly Halberd in an instant.
"Boom!"
A violent wave spread rapidly in all directions with the stage as the center. Strong light shot out in all directions, splashing up a large amount of dust.
When the rumbling sound disappeared, the scene was dead silent. Everyone was silently looking forward.
The Indestructible Blue Lotus slowly rotated in the air and returned to its calm state. Below it, a crack was clearly visible, releasing bits of multicolored light.
On the other side, Gu Yue's ancient halberd had already been broken, turning into light and dissipating. Only half of the halberd remained in front of Gu Yue, flickering uncertainly.
"There's no need to continue. I've lost!" Gu Yue's voice rang out. The ancient halberd in front of him turned into motes of light and entered his body.
"Pu!"
Without any warning, Gu Yue suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. He looked at Tang Ao with a complicated expression, then turned and walked off the stage.
"Senior-apprentice Brother Gu Yue, he … lost!"
Even now, everyone was still unable to react, as if they were unable to accept the reality before their eyes.
At the side, the Fifth Elder and the Sixth Elder looked at each other, and a strange light flashed across their deep eyes.
In the crowd, Wang Lin stared dumbfoundedly at the figure on the stage. He found it hard to believe.
"He's actually … powerful to such an extent!" Wang Lin's voice trembled. He always thought that Tang Ao only had a 5th layer special fate spirit. He never thought that Tang Ao would actually awaken a 9th layer fate spirit!
"I can't believe he actually awakened a 9th layer fate spirit!"
"Could he be able to compete with senior apprentice sister Yun Shui?"
Not far away, ripples appeared in Yun Shui's calm eyes. She looked at Tang Ao on the stage and began to ponder.
"Hmph …"
After a while, Tang Ao let out a muffled groan and blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Tang Ao was also injured. That strike just now seemed like a complete victory for him, but he also paid a huge price. He was seriously injured!
Now that they thought about it, they were in an uproar. They did not expect Tang Ao to be injured.
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
The Fifth Elder's voice rang out. He walked onto the stage, looked at Tang Ao, and asked, "Are you okay?"
Tang Ao slightly shook his head and said, "Rest assured, Elder. Disciple is fine!"
The Fifth Elder nodded. He hesitated for a bit and then asked, "Then … do you still want to challenge?"
Tang Ao silently pondered. He looked at Yun Shui, and at the same time, Yun Shui also looked at him.
Their gazes met, and there seemed to be the smell of gunpowder in the air.
However, in the end, Tang Ao withdrew his gaze and bitterly smiled. "Even at my peak, I might not be able to beat senior apprentice sister Yun Shui, much less now! I'm not going to fight, I want to rest for a bit! "
Everyone was a bit surprised. They felt like this wasn't like Tang Ao's personality. However, after thinking about it carefully, they understood.
Yun Shui was ranked number one in the Seven Kills Sect's outer sect, so her strength wasn't mediocre. Even someone as powerful as Gu Yue didn't dare to face her full power attack head on, so the gap between them could be imagined!
Tang Ao walked off the stage. After wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, he arrived next to Wang Lin.
"How is it, little brother? Isn't big brother strong?" Tang Ao acted as if he was very familiar with Wang Lin and put his arm around Wang Lin's shoulder.
Wang Lin's face immediately darkened. Thinking about how Tang Ao had insulted the goddess in his heart, he had the urge to press Tang Ao under his feet and stomp on him.
In the end, Wang Lin let out a sigh and said what was in his heart, "Your strength is beyond my imagination!"
"Alas, if it wasn't for the fact that I'm tired from fighting, I would have definitely gotten first place!" Tang Ao had a shameless expression as he spoke. Then he began to comfort Wang Lin. "Little brother, you don't have to worry. Your big brother will soon recover to his peak. Then, I'll lead you all to become invincible in the outer sect!"
Listening to him continue to brag, the surrounding Seven Kills Sect disciples all felt helpless. They all looked at this new junior apprentice brother with a bad mood.
Wang Lin acted like he didn't know Tang Ao at all. His head was almost touching the ground.
"Next, is there anyone else who wants to challenge?" The fifth elder's gaze swept past everyone. At the same time, he also looked at the top 20 disciples of the Seven Kills Sect.
After a moment of silence, the fifth elder's voice echoed once more. "Since no one else wants to challenge, then this year's outer sect challenge is over! Next, I will announce the new top 20! "
"First place, Yun Shui!"
"Second place, Tang Ao!"
...
After the last name was announced, the fifth elder said a few more words and then signaled for the disciples to disperse.
"This brat is not simple!" After everyone left, the disciples of the Seven Kills Sect looked at Tang Ao's back and said, "He is only in the top two of the outer sect.
What is there to be afraid of? Senior-apprentice Brother Zhao can easily beat 10 of them by himself! "
"That's true, but his ninth heaven soul piece is indeed extraordinary. I have to tell Senior-apprentice Brother Zhao to prevent any accidents from happening in the future!"
The disciples of the Seven Kills Sect also left.
All of a sudden, every disciple in the outer sect of the Seven Kills Sect was talking about the same person — Tang Ao.
