"What's going on?"
The sudden appearance of the Sword Will made the martial artists at the foot of the mountain feel their hair stand on end. It was as if countless long swords were pointing at them.
"Look, another Overlord wants to challenge Sweeper."
The appearance of the Heaven List suddenly made the Shaolin Temple famous. Three of the top five in the world were in the Shaolin Temple's Sutra Depository. What was even more ridiculous was that the monks of the Shaolin Temple didn't know about it.
However, this didn't stop the sects from flocking to the temple.
Whether it was to watch the heroes of the Jianghu challenge the "Overlords of the Shaolin Temple" or to find an opportunity to challenge them, the Shaolin Temple was the best place.
Because the most powerful man in the world lived here. Anyone who had the ambition to become the most powerful man in the world would come to challenge him.
"How can such a top swordsman be a stranger?"
Everyone looked at Dugu Qiubai who was walking up the mountain step by step with a puzzled expression.
The Eastern Heretic, Huang Yaoshi, God, and Xin Qiji were the top Overlords in the Jianghu, but they had never heard of any of them before.
"What's going on?"
At the foot of the mountain, Satoshi Kumamoto, who was sitting cross-legged on a big rock, suddenly stood up and looked at Dugu Qiubai with a puzzled expression.
He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt an extremely sharp Sword Will that was full of threat.
"Oh no!"
Satoshi Kumamoto's face changed greatly and became a little gloomy.
He had been defeated by Sweeper in one move. If someone could withstand one move from Sweeper, his ranking would definitely be pushed down.
All the students of the All-Heavens Academy were frantically trying to raise their rankings. If he were to fall, how would he, Jiu Mozhi, have any face left?
"Whoosh!"
Satoshi Kumamoto quickly followed.
He had to see what the result would be.
In addition to Satoshi Kumamoto, several other Xiantian experts also followed.
Although he had never seen Dugu Qiubai in action, the penetrating sword intent was filled with endless destructive power.
"If you want to go up the mountain, you have to break through the Bronze Array of the Shaolin Temple."
When Dugu Qiubai was halfway up the mountain, he saw eighteen slightly bronze-skinned monks standing in the middle of the road.
"Benefactor, please don't blame us. There are too many people going up the mountain. We have to ensure that there are enough people."
The leading monk said with a heavy expression.
The pressure that Dugu Qiubai gave him was even greater than that of Satoshi Kumamoto.
Previously, Satoshi Kumamoto had easily swept away their Eighteen Bronze Men. They would definitely not be able to stop Dugu Qiubai.
"I wonder how long it will take for him to break through the Eighteen Bronze Men Array?"
Behind him, Satoshi Kumamoto was a little nervous.
"Ah!"
Dugu Qiubai scanned the area with his eyes and unleashed a formless sword will. All the eighteen bronze figures that met his gaze covered their eyes and shrieked in agony. Some of the monks even had blood flowing out of their eyes.
"Don't worry. The sword intent did not enter your eyes. Rest for two to four hours and your eyes will return to normal."
Dugu Qiubai's cold voice resounded in the ears of the Eighteen Bronze Men. When they came to their senses, he had already appeared behind the Eighteen Bronze Men.
"It's over!"
Satoshi Kumamoto's face darkened and he felt an impulse.
Dugu Qiubai's strength was somewhat beyond his expectations, especially his sword intent.
Should he stop Dugu Qiubai and not let Dugu Qiubai fight with Sweeper?
If he and Dugu Qiubai fought to a draw, he could at least maintain his current ranking.
"It's okay. I'll challenge him when he comes down the mountain."
Satoshi Kumamoto quickly calmed down. He also had his pride.
Sweeper was just an accident. He believed in his own strength. Even if he could not defeat the others, he could at least fight to a draw.
Moreover, he was now the sixth strongest person in the world. How could he take the initiative to challenge someone who was not on the list?
"He's here!"
Abbot Xuan Ci and the others, who had been paying attention to the situation at the foot of the mountain, looked at Dugu Qiubai slowly walking over with complicated expressions.
Before the Heaven List was released, the most famous people in the Underworld were South Murong and North Qiao Feng.
Even if Qiao Feng's strength surprised him, the Shaolin Temple was still confident that they could suppress Qiao Feng's strength. Moreover, Qiao Feng was also a lay disciple of the Shaolin Temple.
However, after the Heaven List was released, he felt that the entire Underworld had changed.
Even the Abbot of the Shaolin Temple could not be ranked in the top ten in the world!
"Whoosh!"
A skinny monk in a green robe suddenly appeared in front of Abbot Xuan Ci and the other senior monks of the Shaolin Temple. He had a peaceful smile on his face and looked at Dugu Qiubai with admiration.
He could feel the Sword Essence released by Dugu Qiubai.
"Good swordsman, good swordsman!"
"You have such swordsmanship and such Sword Essence. You are really extraordinary. You are the strongest swordsman I have ever seen in my life."
Sweeper could not help but praise him.
Satoshi Kumamoto, who was standing on a towering tree and ready to watch the battle, suddenly became gloomy.
Previously, when he challenged Sweeper to a martial arts competition, Sweeper repeatedly called him the Great Wheel Wisdom King. Although he was very respectful, he continuously pointed out the shortcomings of his martial arts practice.
However, after seeing Dugu Qiubai, not only did he praise him, but he also praised him repeatedly. How could the proud Satoshi Kumamoto swallow his anger?
Today, whether Dugu Qiubai won or lost, he would definitely become famous. Perhaps he would even be ranked above him.
"Dugu Qiubai, please enlighten me!"
Dugu Qiubai's expression did not change. His pace did not change because of Sweeper's words. He still walked up to Sweeper at a moderate pace. When he reached the opposite side of Sweeper, he slightly cupped his hands and said.
He was a person who did not like to talk, but he still had basic etiquette.
"Dugu Qiubai?"
Satoshi Kumamoto and the senior monks of the Shaolin Temple were all stunned when they heard this name.
MMP!
This was the most arrogant name they had ever heard.
Was this the name that Dugu Qiubai's parents gave him? Was this the name that they had high hopes for Dugu Qiubai?
Or did Dugu Qiubai change his name?
If it was the latter, then Dugu Qiubai's arrogance was too strong.
"Dugu Qiubai? Benefactor Dugu's swordsmanship is indeed unparalleled. "
Sweeper was also slightly stunned, but he acknowledged Dugu Qiubai's name.
"This old monk also admires Benefactor Dugu's strength, but this old monk's realm is slightly higher. This is not the best time to fight."
He could tell at a glance that Dugu Qiubai's realm was only at the peak of the Xiantian Realm, which was one realm lower than his.
Sweeper wanted to wait until Dugu Qiubai reached the Master Realm before the two of them fought, instead of relying on his own realm to suppress his opponent.
Satoshi Kumamoto, Abbot Xuan Ci, and the others were speechless.
After praising Dugu Qiubai for half a day, he ended up saying that his realm was lower than his. Was he pretending to be strong?
"Okay."
Dugu Qiubai's expression was calm as he nodded.
He also acknowledged Sweeper's strength.
"Phew ~"
Satoshi Kumamoto breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Finally, there was no need to fight today. He could keep his ranking.
Dugu Qiubai would probably need some time to break through to the Master Realm.
During this period of time, with the advantage of All Heavens College, it was enough for him to break through to a higher realm. At that time, he would be the first to defeat Sweeper and win the title of the world's number one.
"What a pity ~"
Abbot Xuan Ci and the others looked regretful.
This challenge was going to end without any results!
"Buzz ~"
At this moment, Dugu Qiubai's white hair fluttered even though there was no wind. They looked like white steel needles, straight and sharp. Waves of sharp sword intent gushed out.
Looking at it, his whole body seemed to have turned into a long sword, and the originally invisible sword intent directly turned into a bright crystal substance, surrounding him.
"Crack!" "Crack!" "Crack!" "Crack!"
With Dugu Qiubai as the center, dense cracks appeared on the ground under his feet. If one looked carefully, they seemed to be sword marks left behind by treasured swords.
Without the restrictions of the world, breaking through to the next realm was just a matter of whether he wanted to or not.
"My realm has also reached the Master Realm. We can start now."
Dugu Qiubai stepped forward and said without a change in his expression. The two of them were no more and no less.
