Xiao Tian had returned to his residence. After taking out a black box adorned with a turtle motif, he sensed Liu Qingyun and the others around him.However, Xiao Tian did not want to disturb them. He went straight inside and began his training. "This resource might not help me break through to the next stage, but it can at least strengthen my foundation."He had stored some valuable resources from the pockets of those who had tried to kill him. Yet, Xiao Tian's needs for resources were different from others. After reaching the fifth rank as an Earth King, he realized that every bit of energy he absorbed seemed to disappear as if swallowed by the Earth."Strange, why can’t I use the energy already in my body to increase my energy circles? What’s wrong with my body?" Xiao Tian wondered.Unbeknownst to Xiao Tian, something terrifying lurked inside him, even the artifact spirit of the mysterious rusty sword was powerless against it.****The next morning, Xiao Tian and Liu Qingyun emerged
Hearing She Xongjan's reprimand, Luyanzhi immediately released Yi Min. His usually cold face instantly transformed into a friendly one. "Elder, forgive me. I got too enthusiastic in this fight, especially because he is from the main sect. I didn’t hear his words. Please forgive this junior's oversight," he said, bowing in respect.She Xongjan looked at him for a moment and then slightly eased his anger. "This time, I will forgive you. But remember, there will be no second chance! If you do this again, not only will I disqualify you, but I will also give you severe punishment!"Despite the reprimand, Luyanzhi’s expression remained calm, showing only a hint of regret. "Elder, I will remember this. I will ensure this incident will not repeat."However, deep inside, Luyanzhi harbored a deep hatred towards She Xongjan. "She Xongjan, you can act however you want now, but when my father comes out of seclusion, you will kneel and beg for mercy!"After Luyanzhi released Yi Min, he lay on the a
Xiao Tian shook his head as he listened to Shunyuan's words. To him, no matter how powerful the relic his opponent held, nothing could match the strength of his mysterious rusted sword."Since you're so proud of your sword, show me its full power. You can take my life here yourself, without sending others to do it!" Xiao Tian said coldly. He detested hypocrisy, especially from those who had an angelic face but were more ruthless than demons behind them. The death of his parents was clear evidence of the cruelty of such people.Shunyuan snorted, still denying Xiao Tian's accusations. “Don’t accuse me without proof! I never sent anyone to kill you.” His voice was firm, but his eyes betrayed hidden anxiety. As the crown prince of the Yuntai Kingdom, Shunyuan knew that if the truth came out, his reputation would be ruined in an instant. So, he worked hard to deny it.Without further ado, Shunyuan ran toward Xiao Tian, swinging his sword. His movements were swift, almost too fast for the n
"Our Young Master may have been wrong, but you and your friends are still alive, so there's no need to go too far." The elder remained adamant, unwilling to reveal the whole truth.Xiao Tian merely snorted coldly. "It seems you don't care about your young master's life. I might as well end it now!""W-Wait!" Seeing Xiao Tian truly about to kill Shunyuan, the elder finally gave in. "Young Master Shunyuan was indeed wrong. He dared to hire assassins to take your life. But since you're unharmed, please forgive our Young Master's mistake."Xiao Tian narrowed his eyes. "You say that without sincerity, not even a single 'please' or 'beg'. Instead, you're ordering me. Sorry, I can't save your young master's life!"Crack—Bang—With increasing strength, Xiao Tian's grip crushed Shunyuan's neck, causing his head to detach from his body.As blood began to spurt from the base of Shunyuan's neck, Xiao Tian kicked the headless body away from him.In the spectator stands, disbelief covers every fac
Xiao Tian returned to his seat, greeted with anxiety from Liu Qingyun. "Young Master, are you all right?" she asked, full of worry.Xiao Tian gave a faint smile, reassuring her. "I'm fine, Elder. No need to worry."In the distance, the Elders of the She Empire watched Xiao Tian with caution. This ten-year-old child had both amazed and made them wary. Xiao Tian not only managed to kill Shunyuan publicly without facing any punishment but was instead rewarded by Emperor She. His steps were not only neat but also deadly—a trait typically possessed by high-ranking officials, not by a small child.****The matches continued, but after witnessing the fierce battle between Xiao Tian and Shunyuan, no other fight could capture the audience's attention.Ling Faizhe defeated Shirong but was eventually beaten by Shouxue from the Misty Cloud Sect. The competition was nearing its climax.She Xongjan spoke in the air with authority. "The competition has finally reached the top ten. Those of you who h
Two names started glowing in the air, emitting light that drew attention. "Next match: Ershita'er from the Misty Cloud Sect versus Mayleen from the Dongsheng Sacred House."Whoosh—Both stepped into the Martial Arena with lightning speed. Without any pleasantries, they unleashed their respective auras, trying to intimidate each other with pure power. Their gazes were filled with tension.Ershita'er, without saying a word, began to advance. With each step she took, the arena floor was covered with a thick layer of ice, responding to the cold she emitted.On the other side, Mayleen pulled out a fan, not an ordinary fan but a deadly heirloom weapon ready to claim lives."Ershita'er, I've heard you are the most talented woman in the Misty Cloud Sect. It's an honour to fight you. But no matter how strong you are, your experience is still too little to face me." A sinister smile curled on Mayleen's lips as she threw her fan and began forming hand seals. In an instant, the fan multiplied int
She Feng snorted coldly. “Tian, this is the first time I've seen a disciple from a third-rate sect dare to act up in front of me. Since you refuse to draw your sword, I’ll make sure you do!”“If your only goal is to make me draw my sword, your thinking is too narrow. Why don’t you try defeating me instead?” Xiao Tian didn’t want to waste any more words. He launched a more aggressive attack on She Feng.On the other side, She Feng didn’t remain idle. He retrieved his spear and skillfully wielded it with nimble movements.To his credit, She Feng’s spear techniques were indeed impressive, with a rhythm that was difficult to predict. Unfortunately, he had chosen the wrong opponent. Xiao Tian could easily see through all of She Feng’s attacks.As She Feng launched his final strike, aiming to pierce Xiao Tian’s chest with his spear, Xiao Tian swiftly jumped, stepped on the weapon, and performed a graceful somersault. In an instant, his foot struck She Feng’s shoulder with immense force.Baa
Chapter 40:In the spectators' stands, Daniel's condition gradually improved thanks to Liu Qingyun's treatment. Once he was stable enough, Xiao Tian gave him some pills to ensure there were no hidden injuries left in Daniel's body.After recovering, Daniel turned his gaze toward the arena, where a fierce battle between Ershita'er and Luyanzhi was taking place. "Young Master, who do you think will emerge victorious between them?" Daniel asked curiously.Xiao Tian calmly observed the arena. "Ershita'er is indeed very strong. With a fifth-tier Earth King warrior cultivation, he can manipulate ice power freely. However, despite his greatness, I believe the winner will still be Luyanzhi.""Luyanzhi?" Daniel and the two elders who overheard were surprised. They found it hard to believe Xiao Tian's words, considering Ershita'er's impressive strength. Even a seventh-tier warrior would likely struggle against him.Xiao Tian smiled faintly. "Pay close attention. Ershita'er may have unleashed hi
