If I Can Take One Hit, I Lose
Gu Xuan walked in calmly, while Elder Zi followed behind him. His energy was restrained, and he was calm, as if he didn't exist.
"Do any of you know which training room senior brother Yang Yu is in?" Gu Xuan pointed at the dozens of training rooms at the side of the hall and inquired.
"This …"
The people outside looked at each other, but they didn't dare to speak. Gu Xuan was already senior sister Xue Ling's enemy, so they didn't dare to have anything to do with him. Now that Gu Xuan was here, someone would probably contact senior sister Xue Ling soon.
When that time comes, not only would senior sister Xue Ling cause trouble, senior brother Yan Lin and senior brother Wu Sheng would also cause trouble for Gu Xuan. Even if Yang Yu helped Gu Xuan, he wouldn't be able to do much against the three of them.
Seeing this, Gu Xuan sneered. These people had the title of top geniuses, but they were afraid of others. Even if they were twice as talented, it would be difficult for them to achieve anything.
Even if they didn't say anything, Gu Xuan could still find a way. He could now release his soul energy. Even though there was an array here that suppressed soul energy and it would be more difficult, he could still find out after some time.
Boom!
Just then, three stone doors opened in the training room next to him. Three figures walked out, two men and one woman. Standing in the middle was Xue Ling, who wanted to negotiate with him.
"Senior brother Yan Lin, senior brother Wu Sheng, senior sister Xue Ling!"
When the crowd saw the appearance of these three people, they were shocked and quickly bowed respectfully. These three people were the strongest in the Palace of Fortune. Xue Ling was already a three-star King, and as for Yan Lin and Wu Sheng, their forces were the strongest. They had both reached the four-star King level.
The reality was that Yan Lin and Wu Sheng could've left the Palace of Fortune and become apprenticed to a House elder. However, in order to gain Xue Ling's favor, they chose to stay. Therefore, their capabilities were higher than everyone else's.
Xue Ling had already arranged for someone to guard the place. When Gu Xuan entered the Palace of Fortune, that person used a special method to inform the three of them.
"Gu Xuan, I didn't think you would have the guts to come here! I told you, don't even think about stepping into the Palace of Fortune ever again. Since you dared to disobey me, you will have to pay the price! "
Xue Ling looked at Gu Xuan and lifted her fair chin slightly, revealing a trace of disdain and mockery. "You dare to disrespect me? You offended me for a mere thousand Fire-condensing Pills. I will make you regret it for the rest of your life!"
Gu Xuan glanced at the three of them and shook his head. "I don't want to cause trouble. You can leave now and this matter will end here."
"Is this the end?" "Gu Xuan, you're oversimplifying things. It's not up to you to decide whether this matter ends or not. It's up to those with true strength to decide. This time, I'll let you see the gap between you and me. You won't be able to resist me at all!"
Beside Xue Ling, the tall young man in a blood-red robe, Yan Lin, snorted and said straightforwardly, "Ling 'er, why are you wasting so much time talking to him? If he dares to disrespect you, I will drag him onto the battle stage and break his limbs. Consider it as revenge for Junior Brother Peng Zhen!"
"It's not up to you to break his limbs. I'm sure Ling 'er will let me do it. I have Doyen backing me up. No matter how badly I beat him up, nothing will happen!" Wu Sheng, who had restrained his aura, hurriedly said.
The two of them refused to give in to each other. They didn't have any grudges against Gu Xuan. To them, teaching Gu Xuan a lesson was a way to please Xue Ling. Naturally, they had to fight for it.
Seeing this, the playful look on Elder Zi's face deepened. Break Gu Xuan's limbs? Where did these two four-star King Grade brats get their courage from? Although he didn't know Gu Xuan's true strength, it was more than enough to teach these two King Grade warriors a lesson.
"I thought this old man was arrogant enough. I didn't expect the youngsters nowadays to be even more arrogant than me. Gu Xuan, this brat, could easily destroy the sub-forces of the three major sects. He actually crippled these people just like that." Elder Zi was laughing in his heart.
Gu Xuan also laughed mockingly. In terms of age and realm, Yan Hong and Wu Sheng were geniuses second only to Yang Yu and Peng Zhen. Yet, they were actually toyed with by a woman. It was truly a little laughable.
"Enough!" Xue Ling frowned slightly and stopped the two of them. However, there was a hint of pride in her eyes. The more others were jealous of her, the happier she was. Since Gu Xuan dared to not give her face, she would definitely teach Gu Xuan a lesson.
"We are all brothers of the same sect. It doesn't make sense to cripple him. After all, Gu Xuan is still a newcomer. It's fine to give him a chance."
Xue Ling raised her chin arrogantly and looked at Gu Xuan with pity. "Gu Xuan, you talked back to me before. Now, admit your mistake and kneel outside for half a day. In the future, when you see me, you have to bow and salute. Then, I will let you go this time."
"Junior Sister Xue Ling is really magnanimous!" Yan Lin shook his head and sneered. "This kind of arrogant person doesn't understand the difference in status. If he doesn't give face to Junior Sister, it's not a big deal even if his flame power is crippled."
Wu Sheng also snorted and didn't want to be outdone. He glanced at Gu Xuan and said coldly, "Junior Sister Xue Ling doesn't want to bicker with a nobody like you. Hurry up and thank her. Kneel outside for half a day and admit your mistake. Do you want the two of us to cripple you? No matter how high your martial arts ability is, it is just a side path. Do you think your status can be compared with cultivation geniuses like us? "
"Magnanimous? Don't want to bicker with a nobody? " The mockery on Gu Xuan's face became more intense. Xue Ling and the other two really thought highly of themselves. The three of them really thought that they were favored by the heavens and could do whatever they wanted others to do.
Gu Xuan had broken through to the King Stage and was in a good mood. He didn't want to bicker with a nobody like them. However, since the three of them had taken the initiative to provoke him, Gu Xuan didn't mind letting them know what it felt like to kick an iron plate.
Seeing Gu Xuan's indifference and even mockery, Xue Ling's face darkened. "Gu Xuan, I've already given you a chance. Don't be so shameless. Yang Yu is still in seclusion. Even if he wasn't, he can't protect you!"
"Is that so?" Gu Xuan's face revealed a cold smile. "I was going to let you go. However, since you bunch of trash want to die, then I'll just attack. If any of you can take a blow from me, then I'll consider it my loss."
"What!"
The top geniuses who were looking at Gu Xuan with pity were shocked. Obviously, they were shocked by Gu Xuan's "arrogant" words.
Xue Ling and the other two were Three-Star King Stage and Four-Star King Stage. They were so powerful, yet Gu Xuan dared to call them trash?
"Gu Xuan is too arrogant. Although his martial arts talent is better, the most important thing for a warrior is cultivation talent. Although Gu Xuan's martial arts talent is extraordinary and his status is similar to Xue Ling and the others, he's still only at the same level. Moreover, he hasn't grown up yet.
He's too arrogant. "Many people shook their heads. In their eyes, although Gu Xuan wasn't as bad as Xue Ling and the other two had said, he was still at the same level as Xue Ling.
However, Xue Ling and the other two had already grown up. They were much stronger than Gu Xuan.
"Kid, you're really courting death!" Yan Lin was instantly furious. The power of a Four-Star King Stage exploded without any restraint. "Junior Sister Xue Ling, I've already given you a chance. However, you're asking for trouble. Then I'll destroy your Flame Power and let you know the difference between us!"
"Yan Lin, this little bastard must be destroyed by me!" The Flame Power in Wu Sheng's body also burst out.
"Don't even think about it!" Yan Lin snorted coldly. His body turned into a phantom as he rushed toward Gu Xuan. The Flame Power of a Four-Star King Stage exploded as he pointed at Gu Xuan's Dantian.
"Get out!"
Gu Xuan roared. He waved his hand and a terrifying aura burst out. This aura was so powerful that it completely suppressed Yan Lin.
A giant hand formed and swung toward Yan Lin. The latter only felt that his entire body was enveloped by this hand. He couldn't break free from the restraint of this hand.
Bang!
Being swept by the giant hand, the air shield on Yan Lin's body was instantly blasted apart. His entire body was sent flying, smashing heavily into the wall. The terrifying force caused the entire hall to shake.
"This …"
"Senior Brother Yan Lin was defeated?"
"What's going on?"
"King Stage. Gu Xuan broke through to the King Stage!"
In the hall, everyone's expression changed. The number one on the Fortune List, a Four-Star King Stage warrior. Such a powerful existence couldn't even resist Gu Xuan's attack and was sent flying. What kind of concept was this?
Moreover, the last time Gu Xuan came to the Fortune Palace, he was only at the middle stage of the Honorable Stage. Now, in such a short time, he had reached the King Stage.
Not to mention seeing this kind of speed, they had never even heard of it.
At this moment, the ones with the worst expressions were Xue Ling and Wu Sheng.
They never thought that Gu Xuan, who they thought was an ant, would have such powerful strength. Even Yan Lin and Wu Sheng were arguing about who should attack Gu Xuan.
But now, they realized that Gu Xuan's strength had reached such a level.
"What a piece of trash." Gu Xuan sneered. He did not even use the Sky-ripping Hand. He only relied on the power of the flame and was able to defeat Yan Lin so easily. The strength of the first place on the Creation List was really weak.
"The two of you can continue. It's still the same. As long as you can take a blow from me, I'll consider it my loss." Gu Xuan spoke calmly again.
However, this time, Xue Ling and Xue Ling no longer dared to mock Gu Xuan. Instead, they felt a chill. Yan Lin was the strongest among the three of them. If even Yan Lin was defeated by Gu Xuan in one move, how could they resist?
