Wu Ren Wang's face was dark purple and his eyes flashed with a fierce light. The aura on his body continuously surged, like a monstrous wave that rushed to the sky.
He stared at Su Mo as if he was an Archean Beast that wanted to swallow Su Mo whole.
This was Wu Ren Wang trying his best to suppress his aura. Otherwise, with his Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm cultivation, his aura would be earth-shattering.
However, the anger in Wu Ren Wang's heart was completely boiling and he could not suppress his aura.
"Wu Ren Wang, what are you unhappy about?" The Grand Priest asked calmly. He was not the least bit angry at Wu Ren Wang's actions, as if he had already expected this.
"Grand Priest!"
Wu Ren Wang immediately cupped his fists towards the Grand Priest and asked in a clear voice, "Although my performance in the assessment was not as good as Wu Chen's, I still passed all of them. I should also have the right to become the Young Priest, right?"
"That's right!" the Grand Priest nodded his head. Passing the assessment meant that one had the right to become the Young Priest.
However, he would only choose the person with the best results. If others were unhappy, then he could only challenge them.
"Therefore, I am not satisfied. I want to fight Wu Chen to the death and replace him!" Wu Ren Wang said loudly, his voice full of determination.
Anyone who dared to stop him from becoming the Young Priest must die, must die!
In this battle, if he did not die, then Wu Chen would die!
In this battle, if he did not succeed, then he would die!
Of course, he had absolute confidence in his own strength. In a battle of the same rank, he did not believe that Wu Chen would be his match.
The Grand Priest nodded his head and looked at Su Mo, saying, "Wu Chen, Wu Ren Wang has challenged you. If you want to be the Young Priest, you have to accept the challenge!"
Hearing this, Su Mo's face darkened. He knew that this was a battle of the same rank. Wu Ren Wang's cultivation would be suppressed to the same rank as his.
Regarding this battle, he was not afraid, but he did not have the confidence to win.
This was because Wu Ren Wang was too strong. Firstly, not only did he have a special body constitution, he also had Twin Fighting Souls.
More importantly, even if his cultivation was suppressed to the same rank as his, he was still a Rank 9 Martial Emperor Realm warrior. His martial arts skills and weapons were probably of the Honourable level.
Of course, this was not Su Mo's biggest concern.
His greatest fear was Wu Tian Yu, Wu Chang Yuan, and the others who had been to the Firmament World. If he used his Fighting Soul recklessly, his identity would be exposed.
However, for the sake of the position of Young Priest, he couldn't back down.
After a moment of silence, Su Mo said to the Grand Priest with a serious face, "Grand Priest, I can fight with him, but I have a request."
"Oh? What request? "The High Priest was slightly surprised.
"This battle cannot be carried out publicly. Only the Grand Priest and a few of the tribe's higher-ups can watch!" Su Mo said in a deep voice.
This was the only solution he could think of. As long as Wu Tian Yu, Wu Chang Yuan and the others could not see him, the risk of him being exposed would be greatly reduced.
Of course, when Wu Tian Yu and the others returned to the Sorcerer Tribe, they might have told the Grand Priest and the other higher-ups of the Sorcerer Tribe about Su Mo.
However, as long as one didn't see him with their own eyes, it would be difficult to recognize him.
After all, everything about him had changed. His physical body had changed, his Dark Force had changed, and his Martial Soul had evolved into a Fighting Soul. His aura and power were no longer the same as before.
As long as he was careful and did not let Wu Tian Yu and the others who had been to the Firmament World feel the power of his Fighting Soul, no one would be able to recognize him.
"Not openly? Why is that? " The Grand Priest was stunned. Everyone else also looked puzzled, not understanding why Su Mo would make such a request.
Whether the battle between the two was open or not did not seem to have any effect on the outcome!
"The outcome of this battle is hard to predict. Maybe I will die. I don't want the tribe to see this scene!" Su Mo said lightly. He had found an excuse that was not really an excuse.
The crowd was shocked. Wu Chen actually did not have the confidence to defeat Wu Ren Wang?
However, when they thought about it, they understood. Wu Ren Wang had Twin Fighting Souls, a special body constitution, and extraordinary fighting strength. It was reasonable that Wu Chen did not have the confidence.
Wu Ren Wang laughed coldly. Ever since he had started practicing martial arts, not only in the tribe, but among those of the same rank, no one had been able to defeat him.
Even the previous Young Priest Wu Ling could only barely win him by half a move after a thousand moves. It was impossible for him to completely defeat him!
"Sure!" The Grand Priest thought for a while and nodded. This request was simple and he naturally would not reject it.
However, no matter where the battle was, no one would die in this battle.
This was because Wu Chen and Wu Ren Wang were extraordinary geniuses. The Grand Priest would not sit by and watch either of them die. Otherwise, it would be a huge loss for the Sorcerer Tribe.
"Wu Ren Wang, hand over the wager first!" At this point, Su Mo turned to look at Wu Ren Wang and said in a clear voice.
10,000 Lower Spiritual Crystals, this was a huge fortune. He naturally would not give it up.
"Humph! I hope you are still alive to use it! "Wu Ren Wang laughed coldly. Immediately after, he waved his arm and a small pile of Spiritual Crystals flew towards Su Mo.
With so many people present, he definitely would not go back on his word!
Su Mo's face was cold as he kept the 10,000 Lower Spiritual Crystals.
"I will bring the two of you into the starry sky!"
The Grand Priest's voice rang out. Then, an invisible force instantly pulled Su Mo and Wu Ren Wang to his side.
In the next moment, the Grand Priest took Su Mo and Wu Ren Wang and disappeared.
Then, the Fourth Priest and the other Core Elders, who had been silently watching from the stands, all moved their bodies and exploded into the sky, disappearing in an instant.
All the higher-ups followed the Grand Priest and headed towards the starry sky outside the Heavenly Underworld Star.
The crowd in the square looked at the disappearing group of higher-ups and sighed inwardly.
They also wanted to see this pinnacle battle. However, their strength was too low and they did not have the ability to keep up with the Grand Priest.
Even Wu Yuan and the other ordinary elders could not keep up. Even if they did, by the time they arrived, the battle would have already ended.
The crowd sighed helplessly. However, no one left because they all wanted to know the result.
Not long after, the Grand Priest and the other Core Elders would return. At that time, they would know the result.
"Wu Chen is dead!"
This thought rose in many people's hearts. Admittedly, in the previous three rounds, Wu Chen had displayed incredible talent and power of understanding. However, it was impossible for his combat strength to surpass Wu Ren Wang!
Who was Wu Ren Wang?
He was a peerless genius of the Sorcerer Tribe. His combat strength could be said to be demonic. Because he had never lost to someone of the same level, he thought of himself as the King of Men. Hence, he changed his name to Wu Ren Wang.
With Wu Ren Wang's combat strength, not to mention in the Heavenly Underworld Star, even in the surrounding stars, he was a top existence.
In the previous Young Priest Selection, if Wu Ling, who was also a peerless genius, did not have a treasure, how could he have defeated Wu Ren Wang?
Even with the help of that treasure, Wu Ling could only defeat Wu Ren Wang by half a move after exchanging thousands of blows. He still could not defeat Wu Ren Wang.
From this, one could see how terrifying Wu Ren Wang's combat strength was!
Hence, Wu Chen would definitely lose to Wu Ren Wang.
Wu Tian Yu, Wu Yuan, and Wu Qiong all smiled coldly.
Wu Chen, who had just risen, had yet to shine and was about to become Wu Ren Wang's stepping stone!
