Why should a genius endure?
Gu Xuan was already in the eighteenth pavilion. After taking a dozen steps forward, he arrived at the eighteenth pavilion.
Before Gu Xuan came out, there were already quite a number of people waiting at this place. Not only was this a fight between two top ranked experts, but Gu Xuan's arrogant words from before had also caused quite a number of people to be dissatisfied with Gu Xuan. They wished that Gu Xuan would make a fool of himself in front of everyone.
"Gu Xuan, you're finally here. I thought you wanted to avoid the battle. How about it? Now let me see just how much higher you are than me."
Ye Cang looked at Gu Xuan and smiled coldly.
"Make your move." Gu Xuan glanced at Ye Cang and said indifferently.
"Alright!" Ye Cang's gaze focused. The aura in his body exploded, forming a wave of qi. This aura was incomparably vigorous, several times stronger than a normal peak Black Rank expert.
"Sun Finger!"
Ye Cang shouted. A ball of flame suddenly appeared on his right index finger. It was scorching red and terrifyingly hot. The surrounding air began to distort due to the heat.
Human Rank 1st Rank Martial Art, Sun Finger!
Gu Xuan didn't show any emotion. He shook his head in his heart. If this Ye Cang grasped a half step earth rank martial art, then he might be a threat to him. Human Rank 1st Rank Martial Art was still a bit too weak.
Boom!
Ye Cang took a step forward and his body shot out. His finger pointed at Gu Xuan!
"Star Picking Hand!"
Gu Xuan shouted in his heart and the Star Picking Engraving appeared!
Bang!
The finger and palm collided, creating an explosion in the air. However, the expected stalemate didn't happen. The power of Ye Cang's martial art was actually crushed by Gu Xuan's palm!
"Ahh!"
Ye Cang screamed. His body was sent flying by Gu Xuan's terrifying strength. He smashed into the ground and rolled a few times before coming to a stop.
Everyone who was watching the battle looked at each other with astonishment on their faces.
They originally wanted to see a fierce clash between two great experts. They didn't expect the competition to end so soon after it started.
Ye Cang was full of confidence. He seemed to be evenly matched with Gu Xuan. But he was actually defeated in one move?
From the looks of it, Gu Xuan was not lying when he said that the two of them were not on the same level. Instead, he was merely speaking the truth. Furthermore, from the looks of it now, the two of them were far from being on the same level.
Lying on the ground, Ye Cang felt the disdainful gazes from all around him. Anger rushed to his head and he actually fainted from anger.
Seeing this scene, Qin Feng couldn't help but sigh. The difference in strength between him and Ye Cang wasn't that great. Although he was stronger than Ye Cang, there was only a limit.
"I admit defeat."
"I also admit defeat."
"Here are 500 Treasure Points. Senior Brother Gu, please take them."
Those who had yet to fight Gu Xuan shook their heads and sighed. Their strength was not as good as Ye Cang's. Now that Ye Cang was defeated, they could forget about it.
"Gu Xuan, you can take my treasure points as well."
Qin Feng glanced at Gu Xuan and handed over 500 treasure points.
"You're not competing either?" Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows, other people admitting defeat was understandable, but Qin Feng was one of the top ten students in the Mountain River List, it was not logical for him to admit defeat.
"My strength is about the same as Ye Cang's, there's no point in continuing the competition." Qin Feng smiled and shook his head. "Congratulations. You're the first student to reach the top ten within two months of entering the Heavenly Court. You've broken the highest record."
Gu Xuan smiled and did not mind. The so-called highest record might be interesting to some ordinary students, but to someone like him who had been on the continent's genius list in his previous life, it was meaningless.
With Qin Feng handing over the 10th pavilion, the competition could be considered to have ended.
The result made many people sigh. Two months ago, he was doubted to be worthy of the 53rd pavilion, but now he had successfully entered the top ten of the Mountain River List.
As long as he remained in the top ten for a month, Gu Xuan would be able to apply for the title of a 2nd class marquis family.
"Gu Xuan!"
After everyone had left, a cold and emotionless voice sounded out from behind Gu Xuan.
Gu Xuan looked at the person in front of him, not surprised at all. In truth, when he had arrived, he had already noticed this person's existence. Moreover, he could clearly feel that this person had come for him.
"Why are you looking for me? You should be one of the top students in the Mountain River List, don't tell me you want to challenge me? "Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows and said.
"I am Lin He, fifth in the Mountain River List." Lin He laughed coldly and slowly said, "You are a worthy opponent. However, you are still a little weak now. In the future, I will definitely fight with you. However, this time, I have not come to find you for this matter."
"Then what is it for?" Gu Xuan asked with interest. Although Lin He was not weak, but he had broken through to the Profound Grade 6 star, and had reached another level. He might not be able to fight against experts close to the paragon level.
"I am here because Senior Sister Su wants to invite you over." Lin He said expressionlessly.
"Senior Sister Su?" Gu Xuan frowned.
"Su Tian Xin, Senior Sister Su, the eldest disciple of the Sky Shadow Martial Sect." Lin He explained.
"So it's her." Gu Xuan sneered, "I'm sorry, but I have no interest in her, and will not meet her. You can pass a message to her."
"You don't want to meet her?" Lin He frowned.
"Are you going to forcefully bring me over?" Gu Xuan squinted his eyes.
"No, I won't." Lin He shook his head, "To be honest, although your performance is not bad, I have no interest in you. I have seen too many geniuses, and I have even seen those who are stronger than Zhou Juechu by a few times. But in reality, it is not bad if one out of ten of them can become experts. So before you reach my level, I will not deal with you."
"Since you are not going to make a move, then I will go back." Gu Xuan said lightly.
Lin He frowned even more, and said unhappily: "Gu Xuan, I have said so much, and you still don't understand? The weak must be humble in front of the strong. Even if you can become an expert in the future, when you surpass her, you can get everything back. But not now. When you are weak, many people will not let you have the chance to become an expert. "
Gu Xuan was stunned. He did not expect that although Lin He's words were unpleasant, he still had some thoughts for him.
Indeed, before a genius became an expert, being too arrogant was no different from courting death.
Therefore, even if a genius was angered by an expert, he could only endure. When he was strong enough, he could return everything.
Although Gu Xuan knew this, he would not bow down to a group of Honourable and King level warriors. He could not do it!
"Gu Xuan, I have made myself clear. You can say that I am Senior Su's lackey, but if I do not seek her protection, I will encounter many dangers. If a genius wants to become an expert, he must be protected by others. With enough time, he can slowly develop!"
Lin He shook his head and said, "I can see that your talent is not ordinary. I do not want you to die so young, so I kindly remind you. Now, you should understand what I mean, right? If Senior Su sees you, she will at most humiliate you. But if you reject her, you will provoke her. If you want to cultivate peacefully, it will be impossible. "
"Thank you for the reminder!" Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows and clasped his hands at Lin He. Then he smiled and said, "However, I will not go."
With his hands behind his back, Gu Xuan's face was cold and arrogant. His whole person was like an emperor who looked down on the world. "The path of a genius should be to cut through all obstacles and move forward with indomitable will. To become an expert, one must first have the heart of an expert. One would rather break than bend and be tempered. If one does things cautiously and only seeks protection, then what is the point? For this kind of person, even if he has the best conditions and heaven-defying opportunities, his achievements will only be mediocre. "
Hearing Gu Xuan's words, Lin He's eyes lit up at first, but he calmed down and shook his head, "You're right. You might be a real genius, but if you do this, unless you keep going against the Heaven's will, once you fail, you will die prematurely. Ten years later, I will be a living warrior, and you will be a dead monster. Are you sure?"
Glancing at Lin He, Gu Xuan smiled meaningfully and walked into the tenth pavilion.
"It might not be a good thing to be successful at a young age." Lin He shook his head, obviously disappointed with Gu Xuan's performance. "Whatever, I should go back and report to senior sister Su."
Lin He was considered an elder in the Heaven Court. He had seen too many geniuses who died young due to various reasons. They were either unable to recover from the setback or suddenly disappeared with their heads separated from their bodies.
To be able to rise up, only the Four Kings were able to stand at the peak.
In truth, he could have broken through to the paragon rank long ago, but he did not do so. His strength was far beyond the fifth rank in the Mountain River List, but he did not reveal it.
To Lin He, the more ordinary one was, the more he could protect himself. Unless there was a day when he was dazzling enough, then he could amaze the world with a single brilliant feat.
Thus, he did not have high hopes for Gu Xuan. Even Zhou Juechu from two years ago was not so ostentatious. Although he was strong, he was ranked in the top 20 for a long time. Until a year later, he broke through to the paragon rank and shocked the Heaven Court. He even challenged a 3 star paragon martial artist and directly became the Fourth King.
In Lin He's eyes, Gu Xuan's talent was not comparable to Zhou Juechu's, but he was ten times more ostentatious than Zhou Juechu. It was impossible for him to become a strong martial artist.
Before entering the tenth pavilion, Gu Xuan looked at Lin He with a special expression.
What he said was right. Geniuses should be low profile. Before they matured, they would attract too much attention and the possibility of dying young was high. But that was only for ordinary people. Four Kings? Zhou Juechu? In front of him, the previous Pill Emperor, they were nothing. What they could not do, why couldn't he do it?
