Warrior’s Promise

Soon Mo Cheng could not block the attacks anymore, and his leg was stabbed through, blood gushing from the wound.

“Ah!”

Mo Cheng screamed in pain, backing off.

POOM!

Right after that, a strong fist radiance hit him and knocked him away. His body hit heavily on the ground.

“Mo Cheng, thanks for your challenge!” Jun Wuxi saluted Mo Cheng who lay on the ground, bleeding.

Mo Cheng coughed and struggled to his feet, looking resentful.

He refused to accept the result in his heart, though. He had been stronger than Jun Wuxi but lost to him only because of his weakness having been seen through.

He had to accept it one way or the other.

He took a deep breath and returned to the pavilion.

Instead of challenging anyone else, Jun Wuxi also returned to the pavilion where Celestialspirit Sect was staying.

He could have started a challenge after the first victory, but he was so curious about how Su Mo figured out Mo Cheng’s weakness.

As soon as he took his seat, he telepathized Su Mo, “How did you know Mo Cheng’s shortcoming?”

Jun Wuxi did not ask Su Mo openly, for he did not want others to know that Su Mo had helped him win the fight.

Su Mo smiled, replying, “I know this man very well!”

It was an equivocal answer. Su Mo meant to say that now he knew Mo Cheng, yet he gave other people an impression that he had known Mo Cheng for ages.

“I see.” Jun Wuxi nodded.

At this moment, a man from Ninth Heaven Sect entered the square.

He was in Lv 7 True Darkness Realm. Rather than calling for a fight, he asked who was willing to fight him.

Soon, a man from Holy Teal Dragon Sect came out. Their fight broke out immediately.

They were equally matched and exchanged hundreds of strikes before the fight ended. The man from Ninth Heaven Sect edged out his opponent.

Then he went on fighting and won three more fights before losing to a disciple of Topmost Palace.

After that, more and more participants stood out. A succession of fights played on the square.

A great number of skills that most people had not seen before unveiled. So did all kinds of Martial Souls.

The spectators in pavilions watched and made comments.

Eight Celestialspirit Sect disciples had participated in the fights. Some of them won.

Su Mo had not joined in yet. He was not in the mood for fighting now, and so far most of the participants ranked over 300th.

The really able men had not shown themselves yet.

All of the Top 10 had come, except Wenren Tiandu, the Top 1, and An Nuan, the Top 10.

Xie Tianqiong, Top 1, from Cold-blood Hall.

Jian Chen, Top 3, from Stars Swordplay Sect.

Luo Yan, Top 4, from Celestialspirit Sect.

Long Zhantian, Top 5, from Holy Teal Dragon Sect.

Lei Qingcheng, Top 6, from Thunder Mountain.

Gong Lin, Top 7, from Topmost Palace.

Mo Qing, Top 8, from Cold-blood Hall.

Yun Feiyang, Top 9, from Ninth Heaven Sect.

The above eight people were the leading role of this gathering. The winner must be one of them.

So Su Mo was not interested in the fighting so far unless he could fight one of them.

Despite Su Mo’s lack of interest, there was a man wanting to be kicked.

Right after a fight, a handsome young man flew onto the square from Ninth Heaven Sect’s pavilion.

It was Ji Wenyao.

Once he landed on the square, he looked at Su Mo directly.

“Su Mo, do you dare take my challenge?” he asked coldly.

Ji Wenyao’s voice had surprised quite a few people.

Some of them, who did not know Su Mo, finally knew what Su Mo looked like.

“His ability seems to be overstated!”

“It is rumored that Su Mo was at Lv 9 Enlightenment Realm, but he has reached Lv 4 True Darkness Realm now!”

In their opinions, there was no way for Su Mo to stride from Enlighten to True Darkness in two months.

They tended to believe that the rumor was untrue.

“Strangely, Ji Wenyao seems hostile towards Su Mo.”

Su Mo looked at Ji Wenyao. “What makes Ji Wenyao think he can beat me, with his Lv 5 True Darkness Realm?”

Yet, his cultivation did grow a little, from Lv 4 when at the Devilish Land to Lv 5 now. He must have swollen with confidence.

“I won’t let you down if you wanted to be kicked.”

Su Mo arose and flew onto the square.

Ji Wenyao snorted and looked Su Mo in the eye. “Big words. Let’s see what you really are!”

Back when they were at the Devilish Land, he lost to Su Mo in Mind fight. It did not mean he was weaker.

Now he would vanquish Su Mo openly and fairly.

He did not underestimate Su Mo, since he had lost a fight previously.

He naturally considered that Su Mo had concealed his real cultivation last time, for no one could make such a great progress in only more than a month.

Many viewers fixed their gaze on Su Mo.

Hou Jun, who was only a spectator, sat in the back of Celestialspirit Sect party.

His eyes glinted with intense killing desire when Su Mo showed up on the square.

“Let me see how strong you can be,” murmured Hou Jun.

He still did not know why Hua Yuanhan was the one who died in the fight, not Su Mo.

This battle should be able to reveal Su Mo’s real strength.

Xue Mo, and his farther Blood Emperor also stared at Su Mo.

Xue Mo hated Su Mo.

He felt relieved to see Su Mo meeting his doom.

Today would be Su Mo’s last day, no matter how strong he was.

The Martial Royal expert Blood Emperor, however, was shocked by Su Mo’s fearsome ability.

Su Mo was at Lv 7 True Spirit Realm in Firmament Palace, and now he had entered True Darkness Realm and reached Lv 4! It only took him 18 months!

Even those who cultivated Blood-sucking Demonic Skill of Cold-blood Hall could not do that.

He was not the only one in astonishment. Sikong Yan, Zuoqiu Ting, and even Qian Xunyue were amazed by Su Mo’s talent, too.

No matter what, Qian Xunyue’s expression remained calm. Hong Qingxuan’s improvement had beyond her expectation recently. An idea emerged in her mind when she saw Su Mo’s quick improvement.
