Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

”Such a remarkable Long Yi, only thirteen years old, yet his cultivation has reached the First Transformation Yin Yang Realm - Ninth Layer Hell Peak. Your potential is truly frightening. Keep it up, those Immortal Grade Magical Treasures mean nothing.”

Thunder Venerate laughed.

Evidently, Thunder Venerate was quite pleased with Long Yi.

”Headmaster, Long Yi has a request, could that kid let me have that sword?”

Long Yi suddenly laughed.

Thunder Venerate then looked at Ling Xiao: ”You’re recommended by Cang Lan, right? At sixteen, reaching the Eighth Layer of Yin-Yang Hell Peak is not bad.

But far from genius level, I really don’t know what that kid sees in you.

However, being able to stand under my pressure is commendable.

So, give the White Jade Flying Dragon Sword to Long Yi, and then ask Elder Cang for another one.

After all, Cang Lan has plenty of Immortal Grade Magical Treasures.”

”What if I refuse?”

Although facing Thunder Venerate, Ling Xiao had no chance of winning, but he couldn’t just hand over the White Jade Flying Dragon Sword to Long Yi.

”Daring! How dare you defy Thunder Venerate’s orders!”

Boye Chen abruptly stood up, as the clan leader of the Boye Family, one of the Eight Great Clans of Thunder City.

Also one of the seven elders of the Secret Realm Academy.

Moreover, a strategist for the Thunder Emperor.

He would never allow anyone to dare defy the royal authority.

Thunder Venerate is akin to a king in word, almost equal to the Thunder Emperor in the Chen Dynasty.

Offending him means offending the Chen Royal Family.

Ling Xiao looked at Boye Chen, who had fully unleashed his aura, thus allowing Ling Xiao to discern his cultivation level.

First Transformation Yin Yang Realm - Tenth Layer Hell Peak.

This cultivation level is not something Ling Xiao can contend with at the moment.

But what if he can’t contend with it?

Being treated like a subordinate is not an option for him!

He might as well escape now, and when he becomes stronger, come back and tear Thunder City apart, making those who humiliated him pay!

”Orders must be fair; if disciples feel it’s unfair, naturally we can choose not to comply!”

Ling Xiao said coldly.

Boye Chen was already showing killing intent.

Thunder Venerate’s expression was also not looking good.

He really wanted to just slap Ling Xiao dead.

But the problem is, Ling Xiao was recommended by Chen Canglan, his nephew is not someone you can fool; really killing Ling Xiao here might cause a family rift.

It’s really not worth it for a minor character like this.

”Alright, Boye Chen.”

Thunder Venerate waved his hand, signaling Boye Chen to sit down, then looked at Ling Xiao and said: ”Next, I’m going to test each of your combat strengths. Only those who reach a certain level will be allowed to enter the Imperial Extreme Secret Realm; otherwise, entering is just sending yourself to death.

Ling Xiao, listen up. If your performance is better than Long Yi’s, then consider what I just said as unsaid.

How about that?”

”Disciple obeys.”

Ling Xiao knew that if he kept refusing, he would inevitably suffer Thunder Venerate’s wrath.

Since it’s just a test of skill, he’s not afraid.

”Good, you have courage!”

Thunder Venerate laughed: ”The rules are simple, I will sit here, not attack, just defend.

I have a secret technique that can test the power of each person’s attack.

Have no qualms, use the strongest attack you can muster against me, and I will rate you.

The ratings are divided into four grades: inferior, medium, superior, and special.

We can start now, anyone can go first.”

Ling Xiao naturally planned to go after Long Yi, that way he could gauge his attack strength based on Long Yi’s.

Otherwise, randomly revealing his strength is not beneficial for him.

”Boye Liuli, you go first, lead the way for everyone.”

Thunder Venerate looked at Boye Liuli and said.

”Disciple obeys!”

Boye Liuli nodded, at just sixteen years old, her cultivation had already reached the First Transformation Yin Yang Realm - Ninth Layer Hell Peak; she definitely wouldn’t lag in this matter.

She aimed to perform well, at least to rank second.

After all, Gu Fang’s cultivation is too strong, in that aspect, she falls short.

Apart from Gu Fang, she felt she shouldn’t lose to anyone else.

In an instant, the originally charming woman turned into a terrifying cold-blooded assassin.

In her hand appeared a ninja clan’s blade about three feet long.

The blade was blood-red.

It turned out to be a treasure sword of Divine Spiritual Tool grade.

And understandably, even the Eight Immortals Mountain had Divine Spiritual Tools, how could Boye Liuli, the gem of the Boye Family, not possess one?

The terrifying blood-red treasure sword emitted an astonishing killing intent.

Ling Xiao couldn’t help but frown.

He had to admit that Boye Liuli’s attack was extremely powerful.

”Top Grade Jade Martial Arts Skill - Bloody Nightmare Kill!”

Boye Liuli concentrated all her aura into that terrifying blood-red long knife.

Then her figure suddenly became blurry, as if she had disappeared altogether.

In the air, a blood-red nightmare emerged.

This sight made some Martial Artists tremble.

The blood-red nightmare spewed terrifying Sword Qi and killing intent, inexorably rushing towards Thunder Venerate.

”This should be a top-notch Grade Jade Martial Arts Skill in mastery level.

This woman is really strong.”

Ling Xiao’s strongest attack Martial Skill was only at this level.

Although the Celestial Thunder Divine Guard was trained to Small Success, it was ultimately an auxiliary skill.

The Soul Thunder Light Shield is a defensive skill, and neither belonged to attack skills.

Genius!

Indeed, a genius!

”Will Thunder Venerate really not move?”

Ling Xiao looked at Thunder Venerate, wondering what he would do against such a powerful attack.

Though Thunder Venerate said he absolutely wouldn’t move, can he really achieve it?

The next moment, Ling Xiao’s eyes squinted.

Done!

Thunder Venerate didn’t move at all, he didn’t even raise his eyelid.

Boye Liuli’s attack on Thunder Venerate seemed to vanish without a trace, as if it never happened.

”Tsk tsk, this gap is truly vast.”

Though anticipated Thunder Venerate’s fearsome nature, Boye Liuli, with her First Transformation Yin Yang Realm - Ninth Layer Hell Peak cultivation, paired with a Divine Spiritual Tool-grade treasure sword, couldn’t even scratch a hair of him.

This was still somewhat unexpected for Ling Xiao.

”How should I proceed?”

Ling Xiao gently closed his eyes, his mind constantly flashing attack scenarios.

That was the Tai Chi Eye rapidly analyzing.

”Boye Liuli, score: superior! Well done!”

Upon hearing it was only superior, Boye Liuli seemed a little disappointed.

However, Gu Fang’s subsequent attack only managed a superior as well.

Ling Xiao discovered that although Gu Fang’s cultivation was more vigorous than Boye Liuli’s, neither his weapons nor martial techniques had the same adeptness as Boye Liuli’s, thus the attack prowess wasn’t much stronger than Boye Liuli’s.

If the superior grade was divided into nine levels, Boye Liuli would be superior six, whereas Gu Fang just barely reached superior nine.

Though somewhat stronger, ultimately they didn’t differ much, still within the superior range.

So the combat strength of these two should not differ greatly.
