Eternal Sacred King

The Beiming clan did not have many Golden Cores taking part in the fight. Including Beiming Ao, there were only three of them.

A few years ago, Beiming Xue's Golden Core was crippled and she lost her rights. All these years, she cultivated the Martial Dao wholeheartedly and did not take the initiative to mention this matter.

Beiming Xue's gaze passed through the crowd and landed on a cold and arrogant woman from the Dongfang aristocratic family.

Dongfang Zhi!

A few years ago, Dongfang Zhi was the one who snatched her treasure and even destroyed her Golden Core!

She had never forgotten about that matter!

Although she did not take part in the aristocratic family competition today, she would definitely settle this matter with Dongfang Zhi!

As though she sensed something, Dongfang Zhi glanced sideways and exchanged glances with Beiming Xue.

Her lips curled with disdain.

In her eyes, Beiming Xue was a cripple and was no longer worthy of her attention.

The Golden Core competition began.

The other two Beiming clansmen were quickly defeated by their opponents. As for Beiming Ao, he swept through and defeated three opponents before entering the fourth round!

Initially, nobody noticed Beiming Ao.

However, after clearing the seventh round in front of Beiming Xue, he finally attracted the attention of the three aristocratic families when there were less than a hundred remaining opponents!

This meant that Beiming Ao was now in the top hundred of this Golden Core competition!

"To think that such a character would appear in the Beiming clan. How rare,"

The commander of the Ximen aristocratic family, Ximen Ze, narrowed his eyes with a cold glint.

"It's nothing much,"

Dongfang Yi replied indifferently, "He will definitely go against Dongfang Xuan. At that time, Dongfang Xuan can suppress him with ease and cripple him!"

Time quickly passed.

The Beiming clansmen became increasingly nervous as they watched Beiming Ao fight on the stone platform fixedly.

Right now, he had less than 20 opponents remaining!

"Beiming Ao is victorious!"

An aristocratic family cultivator declared loudly.

On the stone platform, Beiming Ao panted slightly. Although he was drenched in sweat from the consecutive fights, he still looked extremely excited.

Earlier on, at the most critical moment, he had to use the perfect-grade flying sword Beiming Xue gave him to defeat his opponent!

Right now, he was ranked 20th!

If he were to stop while he was ahead and admit defeat, he could still obtain immense rewards and might even be able to raise a request to the three aristocratic families for an expedition outside.

However, Beiming Ao did not want to withdraw just like that!

That was because Dongfang Xuan would be his next opponent!

He wanted to defeat Dongfang Xuan openly!

"Little cub, seems like I've been too lax in looting you guys over the years. To think that you would have a perfect spirit weapon with you!"

Dongfang Xuan leaped onto the stone platform and said darkly, "If you hand over that perfect spirit weapon now, I might spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame me for being merciless!"

"Dongfang Xuan, cut the crap. Accept the challenge!"

Beiming Ao hollered and waved his sleeves, summoning a perfect-grade flying sword. He took the initiative and his flying sword transformed into a streak of light, piercing towards Dongfang Xuan!

"Humph!"

Dongfang Xuan's expression turned cold as he swiped his storage bag and summoned a perfect-grade flying sword as well, slashing forward!

Clang!

Sparks flew as the two perfect-grade flying swords collided!

Beiming Ao's expression changed slightly.

He had expended a lot of stamina in the consecutive battles.

Furthermore, he was only at early-stage Golden Core while Dongfang Xuan was at late-stage. The difference between them was two minor realms!

Beiming Ao clearly felt a little powerless in this head-on clash.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Both of their flying swords fought with speed and it was clear that Dongfang Xuan was stronger. His sword techniques were complex, unrestrained and beguiling.

However, Beiming Ao did not cultivate any brilliant sword wielding techniques. Back and forth, he merely utilized some basic sword arts.

Before long, Beiming Ao was completely suppressed by Dongfang Xuan!

"Golden Core phenomenon!"

Finally, Beiming Ao could not hold on any longer and released his power of phenomenon.

A boundless ocean appeared behind him, emitting a cold aura as the surrounding temperature dipped!

"It's Beiming Ocean!"

"After so many years, someone has finally cultivated the legacy phenomenon of the Beiming aristocratic family!"

Cries of surprises came from the crowd.

Spectator area.

Ximen Ze and Dongfang Yi had indifferent expressions and were nonchalant.

As Void Reversions, they were sharp and could naturally tell that Beiming Ao was at the end of his rope. Even if he summoned Beiming Ocean, he would not be able to hold out for long!

"Eastern Purple Qi!"

Dongfang Xuan hollered and released his Golden Core phenomenon as well.

A purple qi appeared behind him and shone brightly, charging towards Beiming Ocean with a powerful phenomenon!

Boom!

The purple qi surged into Beiming Ocean and created raging tides instantly!

The seawater splashed.

Beiming Ao's face was pale as his phenomenon swayed—it was on the brink of collapse!

It was not because his Golden Core phenomenon was not strong enough, but because his spirit energy was thoroughly exhausted and he could not withstand that head-on collision!

"Admit defeat!"

The Beiming clan leader shouted hurriedly, "The Beiming clan has admitted defeat!"

Sparring was still the main focus for the fights of the aristocratic family competition and there would rarely be fights to the death. As long as one party would admit defeat, the other party wouldn't be ruthless.

However, Dongfang Xuan was unmoved by the shout of the Beiming clan leader. Instead, his eyes were filled with killing intent as he said coldly, "It's too late to admit defeat now! This lad is arrogant and conceited. I'll cripple him today as a warning to others!"

Boom!

Dongfang Xuan channeled his Golden Core to its limits and purple qi surged, bursting through Beiming Ocean and landing on Beiming Ao's chest!

Whoosh!

In a flash, a silver light shone from Beiming Ao's chest and blocked most of the power of the Golden Core phenomenon!

Even so, Beiming Ao was sent flying far away and spat out a mouthful of blood with a dispirited expression.

If not for the silver inner armor Beiming Xue gave him, he would have been a dead man by now!

"Another perfect-grade spirit weapon!"

"The Beiming clan sure has a strong foundation. To think that two perfect spirit weapons would appear in Beiming Ao's possession."

"He didn't die?"

Dongfang Xuan's expression turned cold as he leaped up. Purple qi shrouded his body as he chased after Beiming Ao who was outside the stone platform!

"Beiming Ao has already admitted defeat and fell from the stone platform. You can't kill him anymore!"

The Beiming clan leader stood out and shouted.

"Old thing, you had better not interfere!"

A Nascent Soul of the Dongfang aristocratic family said slowly, "The rules of the aristocratic family competition are only targeted at our three aristocratic families. Who do you think the Beiming clan is?"

Dongfang Xuan caught up to Beiming Ao before the latter even landed on the ground.

"Little cub, let's see who can save you today!"

The power of phenomenon behind Dongfang Xuan surged and smashed towards Beiming Ao!

All of a sudden!

A figure appeared before Beiming Ao like a phantom!

It was Beiming Xue!

She extended her palm slowly and clenched it into a fist, punching towards Dongfang Xuan as she said coldly, "Get lost!"
