Chapter 276 - Experts
Zhong Yue looked over to the white-haired man, every single strand of his hair was winter white, but he appeared to be very young; by the looks of it, he looked like a Martial Master from the Zhong Li Celestial Race, but why was his hair white?
“Disabled cultivators? Who dare to utter such words?”
Outside of the Lesser Void World City, the Qi Practitioners looked over at the white-haired man, and their hearts shuddered in fear, one of them shouted, "Xia Shengchu of the Xia Clan! It\'s him! No wonder he dared to say such words in front of the Slaughterer Demon!"
“Slaughterer Demon? You mean this Zhong Shan Clan member? I think it’d be better to call him the Sword Demon…”
The Qi Practitioners came from all the other races, and they were talking to one another, discussing, "Xia Shengchu is the prodigious son of the Zhong Li Celestial Race Xia Clan, a young expert who have awakened the ancestral blood. He is at the level of Atman Body and the most talented child among the Zhong Li Celestial Race for the past ten thousand years. I\'ve heard that even the godly spirit of the Xia Clan awakened itself for him and said that he has the potential to ascend to the level of gods."
"I hear that he has refined his body with the fire of the sun, his mortal body is like a divine weapon, his achievements are even greater than most of the Martial Master elders! He might be able to enter the Godlike Board after a few more years of cultivation!"
“A strand of hair that can kill! This Xiao Shengchu is the famous Killing Machine, the battle between him and the Sword Demon must be appallingly intense!”
"The Slaughterer Demon has butchered a whole city and killed over nine hundred Qi practitioners. But when compared to the Killing Machine Xiao Shengchu, he is still somewhat lacking. After all, Xia Shengchu\'s name is well known for a long time. He had fought his way up from the bottom to the top in the Warrior Board. His achievements are the greatest within the past 50000 years. Furthermore, Xiao Shengchu has challenged and defeated all of the living Qi Practitioners in the Warrior Board, from the bottom to top, one by one. Unlike the Slaughterer Demon who instead killed so many Qi Practitioners in the Greenhorn Board to make a name for himself."
“I still think that Sword Demon is better.”
“Slaughterer Demon is better!”
“Are you really arguing with me? Come, come, show me what you’ve got!”
Zhong Yue gazed curiously at Xiao Shengchu and admired Xiao Shengchu\'s attainments in martial arts. He controlled the life force and life energy in the Shen Cai Secret Realm, surging them into a single strand of hair and turned it into a white sword that was capable of killing his enemy. This Xiao Shengchu is indeed worthy of the runner up in the Warrior Board; however, he is now ranked third as Zhong Yue surpassed him.
"Brother Xia, who do you seek?" Zhong Yue said placidly. There weren\'t any signs of emotions against Xiao Shengchu\'s sneak attack.
Xiao Shengchu\'s white hair swayed in the air, his hair grew and shrunk with his every breath. It was as if his hair was alive; he clasped his hands behind him and said, "You\'ve overtaken my position, I couldn\'t say much if you managed to do so after defeating me. But now, you\'ve seized my spot away from me by slaughtering these useless Qi Practitioners. This makes me quite discontent. The famous Zhong Shan Clan member who had reverse opened the five realms, are you a coward who only knows how to bully the weak?"
“Hahaha, Brother Xia, you are right!”
All of a sudden, a figure bolted over from afar like a nocked arrow let loose, Chi—— piercing onto the city wall while standing up straight like an indomitable spear. The newcomer was a lady donned in a huge red cloak, her eyes were sharp like a warrior\'s, and she carried herself like a heroine whose clothes fluttered in the wind.
She had four arms, unlike the others.
Zhu Jushan\'s brows raised in shock, he whispered, "Senior Martial Brother Zhong, that is Zhu Jiangyue of the Zhu Yan Celestial Race, didn\'t I tell you that I was ranked third in the Rebirth level in West Barren? It\'s this evil lady that is ranked second…"
Zhong Yue then remembered, during their first encounter on the snow mountain in the Lian Yun Mountain Ridge, Zhu Jushan did say before, that only two celestials stood on par with him in the level of Rebirth. However, he only said that one of them was from the Zhu Yan Celestial Race and nothing else more.
Zhu Jushan’s face turned solemn and said, “Don’t get deceived by her pretty looks, her true form can scare the sheet out of you. This evil lady is just slightly higher than me in the Warrior Board.”
Zhong Yue was surprised, Zhu Jushan wasn\'t weak at all, and he also had a thick face. It was rare for him to admit that Zhu Jiangyue was stronger than himself. Zhong Yue couldn\'t help but have his interest piqued. Back then, Zhu Jushan said that he doesn\'t fight with girls, that\'s why he didn\'t fight with Zhu Jiangyue; but now, he just said that Zhu Jiangyue was only slightly stronger than him, which meant that he had actually fought against Zhu Jiangyue to suffer a convincing loss in the end.
Qiu Jin’er then asked curiously, “Senior Martial Brother Zhu, what’s your ranking in the Warrior Board?”
Zhu Jushan\'s face stiffened up, and he stammered to answer her question, just when Qiu Jin\'er was about to ask again, Ao Shanshan conducted her voice directly to her and said, "Junior martial sister, shhh, don’t ask anymore. Zhu Jushan is ranked at over eight hundred thousand while Zhu Jiangyue is at over seven hundred.”
Qiu Jin\'er was stunned, what a huge gap that was and yet Zhu Jushan dared to refer it as ‘just slightly higher.\' She couldn\'t help but be curious about the thickness of this celestial senior martial brother\'s face.
They all said that the Zhu Jian Celestial Race\'s face is the thickest, even thicker than pig and cow skin. So this is what they actually meant…, Qiu Jin’er thought to herself.
Rays flashed in Zhu Jiangyue\'s eyes as if there was moonlight shining from within them. They were cold and frigid, and yet, were burning with a pugilistic desire. She looked over at Zhong Yue and said smilingly, "You\'ve surpassed me without actually defeating me, your ranking as first place doesn\'t look very convincing at all."
“That’s right!”
The atmosphere suddenly turned freezingly cold, and it started snowing, a man donned in a winter white fur coat walked over. The cold breeze and snow slightly covered his outline and caused the fur coat to sway in the wind. A jade green luster would often be flashed across the man\'s pale face. He coughed and said, "Bai family of the North Barren Bai Ze Celestial Race, Bai Canghai, greets Senior Martial Brother Zhong of the Great Wilderness."
Zhong Yue returned the formality and said, “Senior Martial Brother Bai also think that I’m not fit to be the first?”
Bai Canghai smiled gently and replied, "Senior Martial Brother Zhong as a human could slaughter a whole city. This is a notable achievement; but, I think I might be able to do the same as well."
Sure enough, the deeper meaning behind his words was that he wasn’t convinced that Zhong Yue was qualified to be the first.
Qiu Jin’er asked curiously, “What ranking is this Senior Martial Brother Bai at in the Warrior Board?”
Zhu Jushan\'s face turned solemn. He answered gravely, "A hundred and twenty-seven, even higher than Zhu Jiangyue."
Ao Shanshan\'s face also turned solemn, "Hundred and twenty-seven? He is strong!"
But the young human girl was puzzled, she asked, "Hundred and twenty-seven, how strong is that?"
Ao Shanshan knew that Qiu Jin\'er hasn\'t come out much and only had limited knowledge about the outside world. She then explained and said, "The Warrior Board is the board that records all of the Qi Practitioners for the past fifty thousand years, it included all of the Qi Practitioners from all levels, this includes the Spirit Nurturing level to the Imminent Deity stage! It is a huge achievement already for Bai Canghai to be listed as hundred and twenty-seven in rankings, excluding those that have entered the Godlike and Legendary Board!”
Zhu Jushan nodded, he said, "To be fair, the first and thousandth in the Warrior Board don\'t really have much difference in prowess, the disparity wouldn\'t be huge and could even be called negligible. Bai Canghai\'s prowess wouldn\'t be much weaker than Xia Shengchu!"
Qiu Jin’er then asked curiously, “Then wouldn’t my senior martial brother be stronger?”
Ao Shanshan and Zhu Jushan exchanged looks and thought, It\'s reasonable for Xiao Shengchu and the others to be unconvinced. After all, the prowess of the first thousand Qi Practitioners in the Warrior Board wouldn\'t vary much from one another, if the Zhong Shan Clan member could\'ve done it, then they naturally could also.
“What a strong man, you’ve surpassed me in ranking!”
All of a sudden, there were flowers raining down from the sky, the sweet aroma of flowers filled the air, and a goddess-like girl walked down from the sky with the flowers beneath her feet. Lotuses were blooming in the sky, swaying gently in the breeze, adding an alluring air to the pretty girl.
The Qi Practitioners were stunned, their eyes locked on the approaching girl even though they didn’t know who she was.
"Heaven Demon Consort!" Xiao Shengchu sneered coldly as his face turned gloomy.
Zhong Yue was shocked, he looked at the girl and said, “You are a demon?”
The young girl chuckled coquettishly and replied, "I\'m Heaven Demon Consort, from the demon race across the sea, and I\'ve been ordained by the Demon Saint as his imperial concubine once he is reincarnated from the dead. But as he is still a dead man now, so I\'m just reserved at the moment. If little brother of the Zhong Shan Clan can kill the Demon Saint, I can be your Zhong Shan consort."
Zhong Yue nodded, he said, “There might be a chance.”
"How can the Eastern Sea dragon race have missed out on such a lively event!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice rang in Zhong Yue’s ears, he looked over and met with a billowing wave of draconic Qi, a humongous dragon soared in the clouds, ferocious and yet saintly, while beneath the dragon, a slim and slender Jiao Dragon disciple with sharp eyes and vertically slit pupils walked over.
Jiao Qingtu.
Zhong Yue was surprised. He didn\'t expect to see Jiao Qingtu here, and judging from the intense air he carried, he had clearly entered the level of Atman Body!
In the Ancestral Dragon Ritual, he had acquired the heritage of the Ancestral Dragon. After cultivating according to the heritage, his prowess must have significantly increased, which was why he is most probably here to test his newfound strength! Zhong Yue thought this in his heart.
Ao Shanshan\'s eyes brightened up. She said joyfully, "He is the most talented dragon in the Jiao Clan, his name is Qingtu! This is the first time he entered the Lesser Void World, which is why his name isn\'t listed anywhere, but I\'m sure he will be able to enter the first hundred in the Warrior Board. He might even claim first place!"
Jiao Qingtu was a nobody to the Qi Practitioners, his name was not listed anywhere in the Lang Ya Board, but no Qi Practitioners dared to look down on him because his aura and air were too strong, too intense!
Afterall, the power of the heritage of the Ancestral Dragon was beyond imagination!
Jiao Qingtu stood in mid-air, he glanced around, shifting his sights from Zhong Yue, Xiao Shengchu, Zhu Jiangyu, Bai Canghai, Heaven Demon Consort, and the others. He sighed and said, "Such a glorious event, the West Barren, North Barren, South Barren, Great Wilderness, Eastern Sea and even the overseas factions … there are talents from every region gathered here today. What a pity my friend Long Yue is not here, or otherwise, this would be even more interesting, how regrettable."
Bai Canghai’s face shifted slightly, “Long Yue, East Barren Shi Buyi’s closed-door disciple Long Yue? It’s true that he is qualified to stand alongside with us to contend for the first place of the Warrior Board.”
Jiao Qingtu gave a long sigh, he said softly, "I\'ve heightened my prowess to a whole new level, but Brother Long Yue is not here, how am I going to avenge my defeat? It seems like, all I can do now is to claim the first place of the Warrior Board and wait for your challenge."
It seems like the battle between us had given him quite an impact.
Zhong Yue was dumbfounded, he then coughed and said sonorously, "Dear martial siblings, what\'s the need to be so hurried? I\'ll give up this first place of the Warrior Board sooner or later. When I entered the Godlike Board, it\'ll be yours to claim! In front of me, you\'ll be like eggs, and I\'m like a stone, so why do you all want to challenge me?"
Ao Shanshan turned to Qiu Jin\'er and said in a severe tone, "Junior martial sister, your senior martial brother is really asking for a fight, even I feel like battering him now!"
Qiu Jin\'er continued to defend him and said, "My senior martial brother is just showing his consideration. Senior martial sister, when the eggs clash with the stone, the stone will be left unscathed while the eggs will be crushed into bits. What if they damaged themselves when they clashed with my senior martial brother?"
