Xie Wuji was even thinking of throttling Ling Chuxi to death for her comments. How many people dreamed of becoming guardians and yet were not able to achieve it? How great was this girl to even think of complaining left and right. And she even let Mo Kongyuan try to entice her with benefits in public, without care for his own image. And in the end, she still didn’t agree to his offer, how frustrating!
“Don’t worry. They will suppress their cultivation to the Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage. With your cultivation, you should be able to deal with it just fine.” Seeing Ling Chuxi’s expression that said, “I won’t cooperate even if you beat me to death”, Mo Kongyuan helplessly added on some placating words.
“All right then, I’ll give it a try and see,” said Ling Chuxi after she thought about it. If they were going to suppress their cultivation to a lower stage, then there shouldn’t be much of a problem.
Seeing Ling Chuxi agree, Mo Kongyuan finally felt at ease and wiped cold sweat off his forehead. This little brat, without giving her the incentive of some benefits, it was hard to move her.
“Then, all of you, please make a move,” said Mo Kongyuan to the rest of the guardians.
“Fine. Let’s take a look at your abilities then, little brat,” said Xie Wujie without being the least bit courteous. He took the lead to make a move because had long wished to teach this little brat who did not know good from bad a lesson.
His tall, big and majestic figure was like a mountain peak that flew over towards Ling Chuxi as a surge of hot Battle Qi came enveloping over. It was Battle Qi in the realm of Great Fulfilment and not the Qi of True Essence.
Ling Chuxi’s body felt hot to the point where she felt she was standing at the edge of a volcano. Without daring to be careless, she immediately sent over a palm attack using the Great Fists Skill.
Two palms collided in mid-air and with the surge of Battle Qi generated from it, both parties took a few steps backwards respectively.
“Not bad, it’s a little alike to Old Monster Mo’s Great Fists Skill.” The moment Xie Wuji finished speaking, he sent out another palm attack with Battle Qi that was quite a bit stronger than the first.
Ling Chuxi gathered her concentration and waited. Her right hand sent a palm attack out whilst her left hand subconsciously formed strings of finger gestures continuously.
Two palms met in mid-air again and both parties retreated a few steps yet again.
“So it turns out that you also know the Xiao family’s Turning Cloud Gesture. I have truly underestimated you,” said Xie Wuji before he sent out a few palm attacks continuously.
Ling Chuxi saw his aggressive stance and immediately concentrated her all to deal with the oncoming attacks. Turning Cloud Gesture, Spiral Battle Qi, Great Fist Skills, Seven String Finger methods all appeared one after the other. It was also lucky that a few days ago, she managed to practice on that unlucky Shocking Thunder Beast. These few sets of very different martial techniques were used quite naturally, their transitions no longer so uneven as before.
The figures met and Battle Qi was flying out tyrannically in the courtyard and in a short moment, both had already exchanged more than ten blows.
‘She is actually even executing Seven String Finger, the secret skill inheritance of the Golden Pill Sect?’ Xie Wuji grew more and more surprised, and more and more shaken as he fought on. He was prejudiced in the beginning, thinking that Ling Chuxi managed to become champion in the great assessment competition due to luck, based on Shang Yuan Country’s forfeiture. However, now it seems that she was indeed worthy of her fame. With such innate talent and cultivation, even if those useless little guys of Shang Yuan Country did go onstage, they would have more likely than not have heaped humiliation upon themselves. At this moment, he had already confirmed Ling Chuxi’s appointment as successor in his heart.
Xie Wuji was someone who could pick things up and put things down. With his character, he should have originally stopped and passed Ling Chuxi, but the more he fought, the more curious he became, and he wanted to see how much potential Ling Chuxi actually had. He had long since put aside the suspicions in his heart, so as he attacked faster and faster, his Battle Qi also became stronger and stronger.
Battle Qi clashed agitatedly in the air and in the muffled ringing it produced, both Ling Chuxi and Xie Wuji took a step back respectively. Looking at their postures, both of them were actually in a draw for this battle!
“Good. Little brat, your cultivation is not bad. Now, try this palm attack from me!” said Xie Wujie with a guffaw. He became happier and happier. Being a guardian for so many years, he could very rarely exchange blows with people directly like this, so he was thoroughly enjoying this bout of sparring. As he exchanged blows with Ling Chuxi who had a whole portfolio full of amazing skills, he actually rediscovered his feelings from when he was young, when he had wanted to travel the world and for a moment, his arrogance grew.
