"That's not what I meant … Cough, cough …"
Lord Grim coughed up two mouthfuls of blood, no longer looking as carefree as before. His hair was disheveled and he looked battered and exhausted.
Suppressing the pain from his broken bones, he stared at Feng Hao and said, "I noticed you when you first came to Daluo. You're only a one-star Golden Immortal. How long has it been?
If you're an ordinary Golden Immortal, how could you grow to this stage? You must be the reincarnation of an Upper Realm Profound Immortal … "
Feng Hao was taken aback, then shook his head with a smile. "You have a rich imagination …"
Seeing that Lord Grim had lost all his fighting strength, Feng Hao did not plan to stay for too long. "Admit defeat …"
Lord Grim's face paled when he heard the word "admit defeat" and he felt a burning pain on his face.
Just now, he had arrogantly said that Feng Hao must die and that it was Feng Hao's honor to die by his hands.
But now …
He couldn't even take one move from Feng Hao.
Utter humiliation!
It was simply a great humiliation!
"You want me to admit defeat?"
Lord Grim laughed and said in a low voice, "Do you think that's possible?"
The smile on Feng Hao's face suddenly disappeared and a great Emperor's aura emerged from his body.
However, only Lord Grim could feel this pressure. Especially with the support of world force, Feng Hao was even more majestic than his master, Grand Luo Immortal Venerable in Lord Grim's eyes.
"You … you really are not an ordinary Golden Immortal!"
Lord Grim broke out in a cold sweat, but he still had an unruly look on his face.
It was an honorable defeat!
"Haha, it's not an injustice to lose to you. I … admit defeat!" Lord Grim said.
"…"
After Fenghao heard Lord Grim's words, Darkstone couldn't help but be startled.
He was so unruly just a moment ago, but he admitted defeat in the blink of an eye.
What was going on?
Lord Grim looked at Fenghao and said, "If you were just an ordinary Golden Immortal, I would definitely not admit defeat. But since you aren't … then what's the harm in admitting defeat? Just like when my master asked me to give up my position to him, I didn't say anything. "
Feng Hao couldn't help but feel disdain in his heart.
It sounded nice.
A loss was a loss. There was nothing shameful about it. However, Lord Grim had purposely used this sort of excuse as a way out of this embarrassing situation.
No wonder he asked who he was …
It was obvious that she was looking for a way out of this embarrassing situation.
Just as Lord Grim was about to leave, Feng Hao called out to him and said, "Didn't you just say … there's no winning or losing in your battle, only life and death?"
Lord Grim's face instantly flushed red. His head couldn't help but ring.
"That's right, that was only for my opponent. But you won … to me, I still want to defeat you, so … I can't die! Goodbye! "
Lord Grim disappeared like a wisp of smoke, as if he was worried that something would happen along the way.
"…"
However, all the Golden Immortals who were watching the battle were still in a state of confusion.
What was going on?
Why did Lord Grim, who was ranked first on the Stairway Leaderboard, admit defeat and run away? Didn't they say that there was no winning or losing in his battle, only life and death?
Now that the battle was over, they didn't see anyone die, but they did see two people alive.
Bullsh * t!
Countless Gold Immortals felt disdain towards Lord Grim, but they immediately felt reverence towards Feng Hao.
What an amazing newcomer!
He had only participated in the Celestial Stairway Competition for a short period of time, but he was already at the top of the Celestial Stairway Leaderboard.
The hundreds of Golden Immortals who originally wanted to challenge Feng Hao were even more grateful and touched by Feng Hao.
If Feng Hao had accepted their challenge, they would have been either dead or crippled by now …
Thank you for not killing us, boss!
…
After Feng Hao defeated Lord Grim, he didn't linger on the Stairway Platform and descended from the void. Tens of thousands of people crowded the Exalted Major like ants, watching as Feng Hao stepped into the Exalted Immortal Palace.
In the Immortal Palace, the young inspector trembled uncontrollably as if he was having an epileptic fit.
When he saw Feng Hao's hands in his pockets, the young inspector looked like he had seen a ghost.
"I heard that there's a reward for winning the Celestial Stairway Competition. Is that true?"
Feng Hao looked at the young inspector with a smile.
The young inspector nodded blankly. "Yes … There's a reward of 10,000 Immortal Crystals, a supreme-grade Immortal Pill, and the qualification to become the Celestial Sovereign's personal disciple."
"That's a pretty good reward …"
Fenghao smiled at the inspector who stuttered and said, "Hmm … then I only need 10,000 Immortal Crystals and a supreme-grade Immortal Pill. I don't need the qualification to be a Grand Overarching Heavenly Celestial Exalt's personal disciple … Thank you!"
"Ah?"
The young inspector was stunned for a moment.
Wasn't the biggest reward for winning the Celestial Stairway Leaderboard to become the Celestial Sovereign's personal disciple?
Why did Feng Hao give up the biggest reward and choose the worst one? What was he trying to do?
"Do I need to repeat myself?" Feng Hao frowned.
Thump!
"No … no need! I'll give it to you right away … "
The young inspector felt the urge to pee. His hair almost stood on end when he recalled Inspector Mo's warning before he left.
The inspector hurriedly left the counter and ran to the Immortal Palace to arrange Jiang Li for Feng Hao.
Feng Hao had become the focus of everyone's attention inside and outside the Immortal Palace.
The undefeated legend, Lord Grim, had actually lost to a newcomer.
The young inspector quickly returned. Just as he was about to hand over the Cosmic Pouch containing the Immortal Crystals and supreme-grade Immortal Pill to Feng Hao, a beam of light suddenly appeared in the Immortal Palace.
A figure bathed in immortal light slowly appeared before everyone's eyes.
Bang!
Bang!
All the inspectors in the Exalted Palace knelt on the ground and greeted respectfully, "Disciple greets the Celestial Sovereign!"
The Celestial Sovereign had arrived!
The itinerant immortals and immortal realm disciples inside and outside the Immortal Sovereign stared at him with burning eyes, their mouths parched.
Only Fenghao's expression was calm and did not change at all.
"Hold on …"
The Celestial Sovereign pointed with a finger and a Cosmic Pouch appeared in his hand. He smiled at Feng Hao. "Congratulations, Feng Hao, first on the Celestial Stairway List. You can now worship this Celestial Sovereign as your master …"
Feng Hao cupped his hands. "Sir Celestial Sovereign, if you still remember … I told you a few days ago that I'm not interested in becoming your disciple …"
"What?!"
"What did he say?"
"Is he crazy? He actually refused the Celestial Sovereign's invitation to become his disciple? My god … he's crazy! "
Buzz!
All the Golden Immortals felt their heads buzzing. They could not believe their ears.
A mighty Celestial Sovereign took the initiative to accept a disciple, but Feng Hao said he wasn't interested?
