With only a few minutes left to the second category which was the combat category, among the three this is favourite of the crowd as they get to witness brilliant techniques and their performers. "Commander." A man wearing a dark robe walked into the audience area followed by four people. One of them was a beautiful girl with long black hair, another was a young boy with blue eyes and white skin and the last was a handsome looking middle-aged guy with glasses and short brown hair. The three men greeted the commander. "Vice Sect leader." The commander saluted respectfully. The vice sect leader was a man with long hair and beards just like the known sage in donghuas, his aura was calm but the power it gave off was so immense. "Been quite some time since you last joined us." He smiled at the vice sect leader. "Indeed, I am here today to bring you a gift." "What kind of gift?" The vice sect leader asked. "Our best cultivator, a junior of mine." "Is he able to win the tournament
Mo Shen has already suspected that most nobles are going to use underhanded methods to pass the exam because of the number of times they have failed, but he didn't expect that the method he was going to use would be to make his foe surrender even before the fight. "He can keep on with his trick, but let's see what he is going to do when he is paired up against me," Mo Shen thought to himself. The master of ceremonies called out, "Next battle." Hao Ren vs. Silver BaoMo Shen moved his eyes towards Hao Ren. Hao Ren was a little embarrassed to have to come out in front of so much genius. Hao Ren is also one of his disciples and has a very large body. "Sigh, Hao Ren is always like this when it comes to showing how strong he is; come to think of it, I haven't seen him fight a fellow human before." Mo Shen thought to himself. On stage, a young lady with long, silvery hair walked out holding a silver sword in her hand; her eyes were cold, radiating an unfriendly aura. Her cultivation ba
In the area of the heavenly array sect, in the battle arena a battle was going on that made the crowd stand on the feet due to the super plot twist that was about to occur before their eyes. Liam eyes was wide opened as he stared at Mo Shen hands which was closed to his body. Mo Shen grinned in satisfaction as his fist flew, ravaging through the air. Swoosh Boom~ His fist exploded on the body of Liam. "Cough." Liam coughed out a mouthful of blood as Mo Shen fist hit his stomach, his eyes rolled backward. Just then the force from the punch flew in and sent him flying. His eyes rolled back as he was sent flying straight out of the stage. Liam flew out and fell face first on the ground. The crowd was so shocked that they all stood up and gasped for breath while Mo Shen cooly blew his fist in the stage. "Wow." "He defeated the young fist lord with one punch." "Amazing." "He really won." The crowd applauded and cheered with their voice thundering around the area. Mo Shen gr
"You're free to choose whether you fight or not, however the prize is divided equally among all the contestants, regardless of how many fights you participate in. Only those in the top 10 rank receive additional rewards." After voicing out the rules, Mo Shen and the other scumbag disciples readied themselves as the array formation below them activated and sent them to a new place. A dark forest appeared before them where they saw an enormous tree towering above everything else. There were several small trees surrounding the giant trunk.There were some holes dug into the ground near the base of the gigantic tree.As soon as they arrived, the Vice Sect Leader spoke again:"Welcome! You've reached the third stage of the competition. This is the Demon Realm Forest. Here you will find numerous demons roaming freely within its borders; these creatures pose great threat towards any living creature here, including yourself should you decide to venture outside the boundaries set forth by us
"We worship the god known as 'Shou' who resides beneath the earth. Our race has lived underground for thousands of years serving Shou faithfully."At this juncture, Hinata suddenly recalled hearing rumors concerning the existence of a deity residing underneath the Earth's crust. Apparently, this entity served as the source of power for the majority of humanity's deities. Yet, unlike the rest of the pantheon, this particular divinity rarely interacted with mankind.She could not believe that out of all the places she actually arrived here, if she doesn't hunt she would come at the dead last which is almost as though she didn't even participate in the test in the first place. Kyo then continued speaking with confidence:"However, there are some members of our race who have strayed from the path of righteousness in pursuit of selfish gains. Therefore, to ensure our continued survival, we've decided to eliminate the renegades. The remaining faithful followers can live happily ever after
Meanwhile as Hinata was trapped with those being, Mo Shen and a group of guys were fighting against a demon the height of a two storey building, with slight resemblance to the dragons. They fought bravely holding swords and spears respectively. However, none of them seemed capable of defeating its massive form alone. Their efforts proved futile as soon as the monster turned around facing them head-on. Its gigantic wingspan covered an area roughly equivalent to three football fields. Furthermore, it possessed sharp claws extending from either side of its forearms. Judging from appearances, it appeared to be able to fly effortlessly allowing it to attack from high altitudes. Such abilities enabled it to strike fear into the heart of any opponent foolish enough to challenge it face to face.Mo Shen noticed something strange happening inside the creature's mouth. He realized that the thing swallowed large chunks of rock along with water vapor spewed forth by nearby volcanoes.That me
The master from the sect had an imposing presence, radiating a palpable aura of power and authority. He had a stern expression on his face, showing determination and readiness to face the monstrous creature before him. Most of the scumbag disciples recognized him as Master Zhao, one of the most formidable martial artists in their sect.Master Zhao's eyes narrowed as he assessed the situation, quickly gauging the threat level of the demonic beast. With a calm yet commanding voice, he addressed Mo Shen and the other disciples."Stay back, young ones," Master Zhao commanded. "This beast is beyond your current capabilities. I will handle it."Mo Shen and the other disciples nodded, acknowledging their limits and stepping back to create a safe distance. 'I could have defeated this monster at once if I had the prowess of my previous life, sigh, I can't help but feel really weak now, I must increase my training, hopefully the sect has Techniques fitting for dark attributed cultivators.' Mo
The moment, Mo Shen stepped into the battlefield it became a one-sided massacre, his movement was fast, his hands was like machine creating destructive movement each time it moved. His sword followed a pattern, a killing pattern. One strike from his sword either take out two beasts at the same time or take a rank demonic beast at once. The other scumbag disciples fought with all they have got and still they could not achieve what Mo Shen achieved without trying really hard. It was not hard to tell who the boss is. ...Meanwhile, in a mountainous area. Hinata could be seen holding a skull that released dark smokes.She was shivering as she held it and standing in front of her was a group of angry demon worshipers armed with swords and ready to slash the human into pieces. "Human, you are weak and you have no comrade to save you, why not hand that over and let us kill you painlessly." They said while gritting their teeth. Hinata shivered and shook her head. She got along with t
Mo Shen led the other outer court disciples through the broad path that divided the serpent forest. The forest is connected to two different kingdoms, but the biggest part belonged to the Flying Lobster Kingdom, giving them the largest authority over this vast land.More than fifty outer court disciples walked behind him. Alora was standing on his left side with a faint blush on her face. Hinata had a calm expression on her face, although inwardly she felt insecure due to the numerous changes in expression by Alora. She could easily tell that Alora had feelings for Mo Shen.It had already been six hours since they entered the serpent forest. Luckily, they hadn't been attacked by demonic beasts, mainly because it was the early hours of the morning. Serpent demonic beasts mostly operate at night; during daylight, they remain hidden.Mo Shen stared at the scroll containing a small map of the serpent forest. After inspecting it, he discovered that they had only covered 20% of the distance
"Your mission is to eliminate these demonic beasts and ensure the safety of the Desert Merchant Clan. Each of you will be assigned a specific area to patrol, and you will be rewarded contribution points based on the number of beasts you kill. This mission is of utmost importance, as it not only strengthens our ties with the Desert Merchant Clan but also provides valuable combat experience for all of you." The other disciples stood and listened to the announcement by the southern demon faction, after that sudden announcement their training became even intense. In the past there was no such thing as outer court disciples getting summoned for a mission, the inner court and and core disciples were all in charge of that. Nevertheless they can't complain, they say you can't know how good you are with a sword unless you test it in real fight. It's obvious this is what the sect is planning to do. "Mo shen, you would be leader of the other disciples, Alora would be your assistant. Every oth
Mo Shen's mind echoed with that thought, his determination reigniting like a blazing fire. He refused to be deterred by the pain; he would break through this barrier no matter the cost.With a surge of will, Mo Shen tapped into his inner reserves of energy, pushing himself beyond his limits. He embraced the pain, welcoming it as a sign of his progress. Each wave of torment became fuel for his determination, propelling him forward on his path of cultivation.Gradually, the intense burning sensation began to subside. The pain transformed into a tingling warmth that spread through his meridians, signaling the completion of the breakthrough. Mo Shen's body relaxed, and he let out a long breath, relieved that the ordeal was over.Now, with his cultivation base consolidated at the 1st level of the Qi Senior realm, Mo Shen decided to spend the next two days solidifying his newfound strength. He immersed himself in intense meditation, refining his reserved Qi and honing his mental sphere.The
The following day, all the outer court disciples gathered for an assembly, where they awaited a speech from the vice sect head. Shen Yinyi found it increasingly challenging to control her emotions as she observed Mo Shen's attractive and aloof demeanor. Nevertheless, she managed to restrain her feelings and refocus on the purpose of the assembly, which was to ensure everyone followed the sect leader's guidance. Li Yan was also present, directing a scornful gaze towards Mo Shen. The memories of the Bai brothers' demise still haunted him, but he realized that killing Mo Shen now wouldn't be as effortless as before. Previously, Mo Shen had been a nobody sheltered by the sect, but now he had become an outer court disciple and gained the attention of the sect's authorities due to his victory in the examination. Being the top disciple, he wasn't someone easily forgotten. Additionally, the other two arrogant swordsmen were committed to their duties, making it nearly impossible to harm
Two days had passed since the promotion and the incident involving Fang Yuan, leading to the Clenching Cloud Sect forming an agreement with the southern demon faction, under the leadership of demon lord Catos. According to the terms, the sect had a three-year period to send their most skilled cultivators to compete against the new generation of southern demon cultivators.The outcome carried significant weight. Should the human faction emerge victorious, they would not only reclaim Fang Yuan but also receive additional rewards unavailable within their own faction. However, failure would result in the demons launching a war against the human realm, reminiscent of the devastating conflict that occurred centuries ago. The potential for the demons to possess new strategies and malevolent techniques to dominate the human world heightened the gravity of the situation.Consequently, the fate of the human cultivation world now rested upon the young generation of the Clenching Cloud Sect, sp
"Have you caught wind of the latest news?" asked a young man dressed in the robes of the outer court sect."What's the buzz about?" his friend inquired."During the recently concluded promotion exam, someone vanished within the alter dimension," he revealed.His friend responded with skepticism, "Are you attempting to spread more false information this morning?""No, I assure you it's true. Visit the exam grounds and witness it for yourself. The missing individual is Fang Yuan, the esteemed top disciple of a prominent sect," he insisted.News of Fang Yuan's disappearance quickly circulated throughout the sect, becoming the most talked-about topic within just an hour. Nearly everyone was informed.Numerous experts gathered at the exam grounds, attempting to discern what had transpired, but they were denied any opportunity to understand the situation. Even the inner court disciples stood ready to lend assistance, but it seemed there was little they could do to solve the mystery.Meanwhi
Hinata gave up, she didn't understand this dimension and she thought she was going to die at that moment but suddenly she found herself somewhere else, close to the person she always wanted to be with. She stared at his otherworldly handsome face as he too stared at the masters standing in front of them. Mo Shen tilted his head slowly towards her and smiled and turned to the masters immediately they started speaking again. '"All of you did well, your performance are more delightful to watch than the years before now, I'm really glad all of you have learned something called weakness and now trying to eradicate it." The Vice head stood in front of them and announced with a smile on his face. He looked at all the scumbag disciples, all of them have grown and some were even stronger than he had Imagined one of them was Mo Shen. He stared at the lad that was always at the bottom of the scumbag disciples, the one who was rumoured to be cursed with the inability to cultivate and here h
