Su Mo did not continue waiting. Ren Tianya and the skinny Rank 9 Martial Honorable had already tested Zhu Tong and Xu Feng's true strength.
As such, he did not want to wait any longer. He wanted to occupy one of the Dragon Pillars as soon as possible.
Whoosh!
Very quickly, Su Mo stepped onto the Dragon Pillar and Zhu Tong stood in front of him.
That's right, Su Mo had chosen Zhu Tong as his opponent.
Initially, he had wanted to challenge the First Prince. After all, he had some history with the First Prince in the past. During the birthday banquet, he had wanted to fight the First Prince at the same cultivation level, but had not had the chance to do so.
However, considering that no one had challenged the First Prince and the First Prince's abilities were unknown, he decided to challenge Zhu Tong to be safe.
As for why he did not challenge Xu Feng, it was because Xu Feng possessed a Saint Weapon, and his battle strength seemed to be slightly stronger than Zhu Tong.
Of course, Su Mo also had his own Sacred Weapon. Moreover, it was an Upper Sacred Weapon. However, he would not use it to prevent others from spying on him.
If the Sage Emperor were to spy on him, it would be troublesome.
Seeing this, Gu Tian Yi's eyes flashed. Was this Su Mo's choice? Choosing Zhu Tong was indeed the best choice!
When the crowd saw that Su Mo had stepped onto the stage, they instantly perked up. Was the godly talent that had shaken the entire Ancientspirit Galaxy, the godly talent that the Sorcerer Tribe had not been able to kill, finally stepping onto the stage?
How strong was Su Mo, who was at Rank 6 Martial Honorable Realm? Would he have the strength of a Rank 9 Martial Honorable?
Everyone was fully focused, ready to see Su Mo's strength.
Hua Xun, who was a Rank 9 Martial Honorable, was one of the First Prince's men. He had originally wanted to challenge Zhu Tong but when he saw that Su Mo had gone up first, he did not move.
All eyes fell on Su Mo.
The First Prince's lips curled into a cold smile as his eyes flashed with disdain. He didn't believe that Su Mo would be able to defeat Zhu Tong, who was 3 ranks higher than him.
The Third Prince's face darkened. Zhu Tong was his subordinate and he naturally did not wish for Zhu Tong to lose.
Second Princess Gu Feifei's face was calm. She wanted to see if Su Mo could defeat Zhu Tong, who was a Martial Honorable with his cultivation rank.
The tall and imposing king raised his eyebrows the moment he saw Su Mo enter the arena and carefully sized him up.
It was rare for a Rank 6 Martial Honored Realm martial artist to challenge a 90% Martial Honored Realm martial artist.
"Who is this man?" The king asked the man beside him. He did not recognize Su Mo.
"Your majesty, this man is Su Mo. He is a godly talent!" An elder bowed to the King. He knew that the King had been in seclusion for the past few years and had not heard of Su Mo.
"Oh, what's so demonic about it?" The king's interest was piqued. What kind of godly talent would be confident enough to challenge a Rank 9 Martial Honorable with his Rank 6 Martial Honorable Realm cultivation?
This was a difference of three levels of cultivation. The difference was huge.
The difference of three levels was like the difference between a Lv 1 Martial Emperor Realm martial artist and a Lv 9 Martial Emperor Realm martial artist.
"Your Majesty, please listen to me in detail!" The elder said in a deep voice. Then, he paused for a moment and began to tell them about Su Mo's amazing deeds.
At that point, Su Mo and Zhu Tong were already facing each other on the Dragon Pillars.
"Su Mo, I am very surprised that you are able to come back alive!" Zhu Tong said in a loud voice. He was brimming with confidence.
Although he had lost to Su Mo at the Second Princess' birthday banquet, that was only a battle of the same rank. Now, he was three ranks higher than Su Mo.
Of course, he did not underestimate Su Mo. When they were attacked at the Dark Iron Mine previously, Su Mo was only a Rank 3 Martial Honorable but he had displayed the combat strength of a Rank 6 Martial Honorable.
Furthermore, Su Mo had a small Glazed Pagoda in his hand that was obviously a Sacred Weapon. However, Zhu Tong didn't know what rank it was.
"It is a good thing that you were able to escape that time!" Su Mo said in a deep voice. Zhu Tong was indeed capable to be able to escape under such circumstances.
"I won't waste words. I will use the truth to tell you that challenging me was a mistake!" Zhu Tong lifted the long red spear in his hand and pointed it at Su Mo. Spear radiance shot out from the spear like a poisonous snake.
This time, Zhu Tong was determined to crush Su Mo and wash away the humiliation of being defeated in the same rank battle previously.
If he had lost to Su Mo in the same rank battle, he could still accept it. However, he was now three ranks higher than Su Mo and he definitely could not lose.
"It is a pity that things will not go as you wish!" Sword Radiance flashed across Su Mo's palm and the stone sword appeared in his hand.
"Arrogant words. Take this!"
Zhu Tong coldly laughed as he instantly attacked with the long spear in his hand.
Shoosh!
In an instant, a red spear radiance, which was as thick as a finger, pierced through the Empty Space and attacked Su Mo at an unparalleled speed.
The Spear Radiance in this spear was extremely condensed and it was sharp enough to pierce through the sky.
Almost in an instant, the Spear Radiance arrived in front of Su Mo and struck him in the chest.
However, Su Mo was strong and he was prepared for this and he didn't panic.
He had already lifted the stone sword in his hand and three-colored Sword Radiance circled around it. Strong Sword Force filled the air as he heavily struck down.
Boom!
A loud explosion sounded as the stone sword accurately struck the Spear Radiance. The sharp Spear Radiance instantly shattered into pieces and turned into a sky of Qi that shot out in all directions.
Many people sucked in a cold breath of air as they saw this. Su Mo was indeed a godly talent!
The rumors were true!
Su Mo was rumored to be a godly talent and his combat strength was overwhelming. He was ten times stronger than a martial artist of the same rank. Just from this blow alone, one could see how strong he was.
The First Prince, Second Princess, Third Prince, Gu Tian Yi and the others stared intently at the scene. They understood Su Mo's strength and they weren't surprised that he could block Zhu Tong's spear.
However, while the First Prince and the other royal sons weren't surprised, their father's eyes lit up.
As he listened to the elder beside him describe Su Mo's strength, he couldn't help but nod his head in approval. Su Mo was extraordinary and if he could be of use to the Holy Dynasty, he would definitely benefit greatly in the future.
However, whether Su Mo could defeat Zhu Tong, who was three ranks higher than him, depended on his strength.
On the Dragon Pillar, Zhu Tong did not hesitate to attack again after his first attack failed.
"True Sun Fire Snake!" Zhu Tong roared as the long spear in his hand shot out. Flames burned on the long spear and fire-based energy spread out in all directions.
Shoosh shoosh shoosh!
In an instant, three Flame Snakes that were tens of thousands of feet long rushed toward Su Mo like dragons swimming in the sky. They were wrapped in a monstrous aura.
The strength of this blow was even stronger than the one that he had used against Ren Tianya.
The fire-based energy that filled the skies caused the entire area to turn into a giant furnace. The temperature rose a few hundred times and the empty space around it melted.
Zhu Tong cultivated a fire-based martial art and he also comprehended the Fire Ultimacy. The two of them complemented each other.
Zhu Tong's own combat strength wasn't that much stronger than his peers of the same rank. His most outstanding point was his understanding of the Ultimacy.
His Fire Ultimacy was a Middle Rank 3 Martial Emperor and it increased his combat strength by 20%.
