Warrior’s Promise

Wen Yuanshan burst into a rage.

Su Mo outbid him so much that he had no more contribution points left to make another bid.

Wen Yuanshan looked Su Mo up and down and instantly sneered with raised eyebrows.

“I didn’t expect you to only be at Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm. How dare you snatch treasures from me?”

Wen Yuanshan disdainfully growled. “Get out of my sight in five seconds, or I’ll make you pay!”

Wen Yuanshan was incredibly aggressive because he not only outmatched Su Mo in cultivation, but he also was backed by the Sky Alliance. He had nothing to fear at all.

In spite of having fewer contribution points, Wen Yuanshan intended to directly snatch the treasures.

Su Mo was unaffected by Wen Yuanshan’s words and calmly smiled.

He knew well how arrogant Disciples of the Sky Alliance were.

“Five seconds? But I don’t want to waste time with you.”

Su Mo’s expression suddenly darkened, and he coldly bellowed, “Get out of my sight in one second!”

“What?”

Wen Yuanshan was shocked and could not react for a long time.

He was Wen Yuanshan, Disciple of the Sky Alliance, an expert at Lv 8 Spiritual Martial Realm.

Now, a man at a lower level actually dared to tell him to leave!

All present were astonished by what Su Mo said. Few in the inner gate dared to provoke Disciples of the Sky Alliance, except some experts of a higher level.

However, now, a normal disciple of lower level was telling Wen Yuanshan to get out of his sight.

The spectators inwardly sighed and believed Su Mo would pay for what he said.

“Boy, well, you’re brave!”

Wen Yuanshan abruptly smiled and said gravely, “Show me your source of arrogance!”

With these words, Wen Yuanshan immediately cast a huge palm print at Su Mo.

“Get away!” He coldly roared again.

Wen Yuanshan’s palm print, however, was instantly broken by a fist covered in gold light.

Crack!

With the sound of bones cracking, Wen Yuanshan was sent flying out of the gate of Purple Gold Hall like a cannonball.

After a short while, outside the Purple Gold Pavilion, came Wen Yuansheng’s screams.

Everyone was stunned.

With only one stroke, a martial artist at Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm defeated one who was one level higher!

How could he be so powerful?

Ignorant of others’ reactions, Su Mo took out his jade identification badge, handed it to the middle-aged woman and said, “Deacon, here are 25,000 contribution points, I’ll take the Great-speed Boots.”

“Oh!”

Having come to her senses, the woman received 25,000 contribution points from Su Mo and gave him the Great-speed Boots.

Su Mo packed up the Boots and turned to leave. The crowd behind him burst into an uproar.

“Who is he? I’ve never met him in the inner gate before.”

“I guess he’s a new Inner Disciple.”

“He’s Su Mo!” a new Inner Disciple said.

“What? That’s Su Mo? The one who killed disciples of the Sky Alliance in the Outer Disciple Competition and won 151 battles in a row at Four Seas Arena in Imperial City?”

“No wonder he’s so arrogant! He’s really something!”

…

Su Mo walked out of the Purple Gold Hall and found Wen Yuanshan still in the same place.

Hair unkempt and face grim, Wen Yuanshan was standing outside the gate with blood dripping from his mouth.

“I won’t forget today’s lesson. Your name, please? I hope to learn from you someday,” Wen Yuanshan said in an icy tone.

Su Mo sneered, “To learn from me?” Wen Yuanshan only wanted to figure out who his opponent was so that he could tell some experts of the Sky Alliance to take revenge.

Nevertheless, it did not occur to Su Mo to conceal his identity. He was unable to hide anything now that he had become an Inner Disciple.

Besides, the Inner Gate Trial Test would begin in less than 10 days. By then he was bound to duel with disciples of the Sky Alliance.

“Su Mo!” Su Mo said flatly and calmly left.

Wen Yuanshan was greatly shocked by the name.

Su Mo was widely known to every disciple of the Sky Alliance.

In the Outer Disciple Competition, Su Mo relentlessly killed many disciples of the Sky Alliance.

During the last Outer Disciple Competition, Su Mo defeated nearly all the outer experts of the Sky Alliance.

It was the greatest shame in the Sky Alliance’s history.

If not for Elder Wei’s shelter and Duan Jingtian’s deterred attack, Su Mo would have been killed.

Wen Yuanshan snickered as he thought about this.

Now that Su Mo had entered the inner gate, there would be other fellow experts to put him to death.

After a while, Wen Yuanshan sneered and left.

…

Su Mo went back to his yard in the outer gate but found that no one was there. Niu Xiaohu and Zhou Xin had left Gale Island to carry out the Sect’s tasks.

In the yard, Su Mo took out his Great-speed Boots and put them on. They fit his feet fairly well.

Su Mo released a little genuine Qi under his feet and swiftly moved his steps as if he were a shadowy gale.

Shortly afterwards, he stopped.

“Not bad! Although it doesn’t double my speed, it does increase it by 60-70%!”

Su Mo felt satisfied with the Great-speed Boots. It would be very convenient for him to fight or flee.

Then, he returned to his room and began cultivating.

There were less than 10 days before the Inner Disciple Competition, so Su Mo intended to enhance his strength.

Although he was strong enough to fear no Inner Disciple, he still had to make progress just in case.

Su Mo was confident rather than arrogant. He had never believed himself to be invincible among everyone in the same Realm as him.

He could take on those of a higher level; likewise, some talents of inner gate could do so as well.

Nangong Linjue, for example, was an extraordinary martial artist who was only of one level higher than Su Mo. It would have been very difficult for Su Mo to defeat him without activating sword will.

Su Mo first took out 500 Beast Soul Crystals of Class 9 Lv 2 to feed his Devouring Martial Spirit.

Su Mo lost himself in thought as the huge Devouring Martial Spirit was working.

For besides one miniature shadow of a golden war saber, other miniature shadows of Martial Soul, including swords, spears, and tigers, could also be seen in the vortex of his Devouring Martial Spirit.

After devouring the War Saber Martial Soul of Earth Class in Imperial City, Su Mo’s Devouring Martial Spirit also progressed to Earth Class, into which that War Saber Martial Soul also integrated.

Likewise, when Su Mo had killed many of the Lis in Halcyon City, many of their Martial Souls integrated into his Devouring Martial Soul.

“What’s the use of the integration?” Su Mo murmured.

Su Mo at once re-concentrated and managed to link a Tiger Martial Soul to his Devouring Martial Spirit.

Seconds later, Su Mo suddenly opened his eyes, from which a radiance emitted.

A cold and ruthless aura spread from all over his body.

Su Mo had successfully linked with Tiger Martial Soul!
