A Puppet
"What do you mean by that?"
Ning Yue's expression darkened when he sensed the weak aura emitted by Furball.
Others might not know what the old man did in the Streaming Cloud Sword Formation but Ning Yue knew it clearly. If Furball had not stepped forward at the most critical moment, he might have been severely injured.
That was the reason why Ning Yue had to seek justice for Furball no matter what!
"Fufu, nothing much. I just want to hand over the Streaming Cloud Sword Formation to you."
The old man smiled. "Young man, don't be so hot-tempered. It won't help your cultivation in the future."
"Young men should be full of vigor." Ning Yue calmed down when he saw the old man's expression and remarked indifferently, "Some old men shouldn't take advantage of their seniority."
"Hahaha!"
The black-robed old man threw his head back and laughed wildly.
However, one could vaguely hear a hint of coldness in his smile.
"Alright, young men these days are really arrogant." After laughing, the old man nodded. "Let me give you a piece of advice. It's best to restrain yourself in the Pugilistic World."
"Fufu, whether I restrain myself or not doesn't seem to have anything to do with some people."
Ning Yue smiled faintly. "Some old men who hide daggers behind their smiles won't live long in the Pugilistic World."
"You!"
Initially, the old man could still chat freely with Ning Yue. However, after hearing Ning Yue's sharp words, he could no longer take it and trembled in anger.
"Sigh."
Ning Yue sighed softly when he saw the old man trembling. "Let's forget about today's matter for now. I won't stoop to the level of some old men. If it was me in the past, I would have lost control long ago."
Whoosh!
Even a fool would understand what Ning Yue meant when he heard Ning Yue's words.
He was hinting at the old man with daggers hidden in his smile!
Warriors who were qualified to enter the third level of the World Pavilion were people of status and were not weak.
They could clearly sense the anger of the old man!
Sha sha!
Hence, apart from Ning Yue and Lu Wei, all the cultivators on the third level of World Pavilion distanced themselves from the black-robed elder, afraid that they would be implicated.
"Go on, go on! Don't stop! "
Inwardly, Zhao Kuo was bursting with joy.
It was good news for him that Ning Yue didn't know how to appreciate favors.
The black-clothed old man was very powerful. Once Ning Yue angered him, the consequences would definitely not be something that Ning Yue could bear.
"Looks like I don't have to do anything at all. Ning Yue might not be able to participate in the alchemy competition tomorrow." The corners of Zhao Kuo's lips curled up into a smile. He was itching for the black-robed old man to attack and teach Ning Yue a painful lesson.
However, what the black-clad old man did next was beyond Zhao Kuo's expectation.
The black-robed old man did not attack Ning Yue, nor did he show any signs of anger. Instead, he was very calm, as if the old man Ning Yue had mentioned was not him.
"Ning Yue, although you are a little arrogant, you have the right to be so," the black-robed old man said.
"Not long ago, a peak Primal Core warrior came to the World Pavilion and said that he wanted to buy a King-Level flying sword."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding cultivators stuck their ears out, wanting to hear what the black-robed old man had to say.
It was rumored that as long as one had Primordial Crystals, one could buy a King-Level flying sword from the World Pavilion.
Of course, rumors were just rumors. The World Pavilion did not clarify the matter.
The black-robed old man's words were obviously meant to send a message to the outside world that the World Pavilion had a King-Level flying sword!
"Some people don't know if the World Pavilion has a King-Level flying sword."
The black-robed old man's gaze swept across all the cultivators on the third level of the World Pavilion. In a low voice, he said, "Now I can tell you very clearly that there is! The World Pavilion has a King-Level flying sword! "
Whoosh!
The news that the black-robed old man had thrown out was too weighty. It was so weighty that no one could accept it.
A King-Level flying sword was something that even a peak Yin Yang realm warrior coveted!
One had to know that most of the peak Yin Yang realm warriors in the capital were only using Heaven-Level flying swords.
If they could get their hands on a King-Level flying sword, their combat abilities would increase by at least twenty to thirty percent.
The crowd's reaction was clearly within the black-robed old man's expectations. Very satisfied, he continued, "A King-Level flying sword is not something that can be bought with Primordial Crystals. At that time, I gave that peak Primal Core warrior a difficult problem. If he could solve it, I would unconditionally give him the inferior King-Level flying sword."
Swoosh!
With that, the black-robed old man flicked his sleeves. In an instant, a golden flying sword appeared in his hand.
The flying sword was completely golden. Even the handle appeared to be golden.
"Soul Chasing Sword!"
The black-robed old man waved the golden flying sword in his hand and said in a low voice, "I believe everyone has already guessed that the peak Primal Core warrior did not solve the problem. Therefore, this inferior King-Level Soul Chasing Sword is still in my hands."
"Today, I will announce that as long as anyone can solve the problem I gave him, I will unconditionally give him the Soul Chasing Sword!"
As soon as the black-robed old man finished speaking, the huge third level of the World Pavilion was strangely silent.
This silence was a little scary. Even the sound of breathing could be heard clearly.
"The problem I gave was not very difficult. Allow me to keep everyone in suspense first."
At this point, the black-robed old man took out a crystal ball and whispered a few words into it. Then, he did not speak again.
Thump thump!
A moment later, a few heavy footsteps sounded from the entrance of the third level of the World Pavilion.
Very quickly, four people glowing with golden light appeared in front of everyone.
"Puppets!"
A sharp-eyed warrior discovered the secret of these four people.
"What are puppets?" A warrior asked doubtfully.
"The so-called puppets are a type of puppet."
"To be precise, the puppets are similar to the Dark Golden Spiritual Corpse of the Corpse Sect. It's just that the puppets are more resistant and have stronger combat power."
"These four puppets are all at the peak of the advanced Yin-Yang realm. Their combat power is comparable to a peak Yin-Yang realm warrior!"
"The black-robed old man's problem … Could it be that he wants to defeat these four puppets?"
The surrounding martial artists sucked in a breath of cold air.
If it was really as the last warrior said, even a peak Yin-Yang realm warrior would not be able to do it!
"Cough cough."
The black-robed old man wanted this kind of shocking effect. He coughed twice and said in a clear voice, "I believe some of you have already guessed what the problem is. That's right, it's the same as what you are thinking. Defeat the four puppets!"
"But you don't have to worry. I know that there are no more than ten martial artists in the capital who can defeat these four puppets. So, I've slightly lowered the conditions. That is, you have to last ten minutes against these four puppets!"
"I forgot to mention that not everyone is qualified to challenge the puppets. You have to be below the Yin-Yang realm."
Even though the black-robed old man had lowered the requirements, it was still a huge challenge for everyone.
