Warrior's Promise

“Xue Juntian, it won’t be easy for you to defeat me!”

Looking at Xue Juntian taking a few steps forwards, Xi Taiyun yelled out angrily. Suddenly, the sharp horn on his head flashed brightly with dazzling, multicolored light.

The multicolored light was frightening and even sharper than long spears and sharp swords. In an instant, the light pierced through the air and shot towards Xue Juntian.

Shoosh!

As the light shot through the air, ear-piercing sounds erupted along with devastating destructive forces. Instantly, the attack closed in on Xue Juntian.

“This is nothing! Take 50% of my sword strike!”

Xue Juntian shook his head slightly once he saw the attack before he casually waved the long spear in his hand.

Shoosh!

Sword Radiance blinded the sky and terrifying Sword Qi filled the air as it instantly sliced the multicolored light apart.

Bam!

With unrivalled force, the multicolored light crumbled apart while the Sword Qi continued with a heavy, murderous aura towards Xi Taiyun.

“Not good!” Xi Taiyun’s face turned pale with fright. His body was too big and there was no way for him to dodge the Sword Qi.

In the blink of an eye, he reached forward with his two claws and viciously brought them forward to block the Sword Qi.

Boom! Boom!

Two explosions sounded and shook the sky. The force of the Sword Qi was terrifying and Xi Taiyun stood no chance against it. Once again, he was flung backward by the shock of the attack, leaving behind a long trail of flesh blood in the sky.

The beast claws that extended out of his arms were instantly broken apart by the Sword Qi and almost directly cut off his arms.

Xue Juntian could only smile slightly at the sight of that. His legs shifted again and he walked towards Xi Taiyun. His opponent had been heavily injured and there was virtually no chance for him to battle anymore.

Right at that moment, a massively large First Print suddenly slammed heavily towards Xi Taiyun from the clouds behind.

Like a 100,000 foot mountain, the Fist Print sent shivers down one’s spine. It brought about fierce winds as it sped towards the air and it took the opportune moment to strike Xi Taiyun just as he was flung backward from Xue Juntian’s attack.

“What?” Xue Juntian’s face instantly fell. He was about to defeat Xi Taiyun, but someone had actually had the guts to sneak an attack from behind!

Su Mo’s face also darkened. He wanted to be the silent attacker, but someone had snatched the chance away from him.

“Not good!”

Xi Taiyun’s turned pale with fright the moment he saw the massive fist print about to strike him. He could die under the blow.

Without hesitation, he immediately destroyed the jade pendant just as the fist print was about to strike his, giving up his rights to the contest.

Boom boom boom!!

Xi Taiyun was teleported out of the small world but his massive body was still grazed slightly by the fist print. Explosions sounded unstoppably and blood stained the sky.

Woosh woosh woosh!

A 60 foot tall Giant Being flew to the scene from afar. This man was the top talent of the Giant Beings Clan, Ju Shen.

Xue Juntian’s face darkened and he glared at Ju Shen. He wasn’t afraid of Ju Shen, but he wondered who the reward of the battle would go to.

Ju Shen strode forward as though he were an actual giant. His face was also black. Xi Taiyun had been ousted but neither his nor Xue Juntian’s cultivation rank had increased.

If that was the case, his sudden attack was wasted.

…

In the outside world, many people were bewildered. Xi Taiyun had been teleported out to the world. His entire body was a disheveled mess as injuries lined every corner of him and his whole body was stained with blood.

However, the elimination of Xi Taiyun did not seem to raise the cultivation ranks of either Ju Shen or Xue Juntian.

Yet, the Empty Gods did not seem too surprised and none of them bothered to explain to the crowd.

Kunyun Small World was covered by an array and this array had invisible links to the jade pendants that every person had.

The injuries that Xi Taiyun had sustained originated from both Xue Juntian and Ju Shen. As such, the array wasn’t able to judge who had ousted Xue Juntian and hence no one recovered their cultivation rank.

Although this wasn’t fair, nothing would be completely fair!

…

In the high skies, Ju Shen slowly closed down on Xue Juntian. His face was also black as his cultivation rank was one rank lower than Xue Juntian, at the Rank 4 Martial Honorable Realm.

Originally he had thought that his cultivation rank would increase after ousting Xi Taiyun. With that, he could challenge Xue Juntian as two Rank 5 Martial Honorables.

However, his plan had gone wrong. Although Xi Taiyun had been eliminated, his cultivation rank had not increased and it was still 1 rank lower than Xue Juntian’s.

“Ju Shen, as a mere Rank 4 Martial Honorable, do you still think you can battle against me?” Xue Juntian lifted his head to look at Ju Shen as he smiled.

“Xue Juntian, even if I am 1 rank lower than you, I do not fear you!” Ju Shen arrived at a few kilometers from Xue Juntian as he shouted. His large, plate-sized eyes stared directly at his opponent as his eyebrows furrowed together.

Although he was 1 rank lower than Xue Juntian and did not have the confidence of beating his opponent, he had his own pride and he wouldn’t admit defeat.

“Hehe, I will give you a chance!”

Xue Juntian laughed lightheartedly as he said, “Before the Sky Dragon Contest started, you said you were unrivalled in the same rank battle and you claimed to be the best in the young generation of the Ancientspirit Galaxy. Today, I will prove to everyone who is the real best in the Ancientspirit Galaxy.”

“What do you mean?” Ju Shen’s eyes flashed brightly as he asked.

“I will give you a chance to raise your cultivation rank so that we can have a fight at the same cultivation rank!” Xue Juntian said in a serious tone. Although he knew that his actions were illogical, he was determined to do it. He wanted to prove to the entire galaxy that he was the best of the younger generation.

“Oh!” Ju Shen’s eyes narrowed. The proposal by Xue Juntian was the best case scenario for him.

However, he was afraid that Xue Juntian could be tricking him, trying to trick him into lowering his guard.

“Are you telling the truth?” Ju Shen confirmed in a deep voice.

“I Xue Juntian, stick to my words!” Xue Juntian lightly confirmed. It was a good chance for him to prove to Ancientspirit Galaxy his strength, how could he let it pass?

“How confident!” Su Mo quietly observed the two. Did Xue Juntian really think he was invincible?

Su Mo’s eyes glistened brightly and he was itching to attack. If Xue Juntian didn’t attack, he was going to and he was prepared to defeat Ju Shen first.

Xue Juntian’s proposal had naturally caused a scene among the crowd above Lake Guang.

“Is Xue Juntian dumb? Why would he give up such a good chance to defeat Ju Shen?”

“This is the pride of a top talent. He will defeat Ju Shen in the proper manner!”

“They both claimed to be unrivalled in the same rank and proclaimed themselves to be the best out of the younger generation. Now we can finally see who will speak the truth.”

The crowd buzzed among themselves. Although they didn’t not agree with Xue Juntian’s actions, they could understand why he had done so.

However, including Su Mo, all the geniuses who participated in the Sky Dragon Contest were all hiding in the four corners of the Imperial City.

No one could tell what would happen.
