C371 Qin Shang
C371 Qin Shang
In the inner city, the five major powers were the most respected. There were more than one Astral Martial Stage Martial Lord in each of these five major powers. They were powerful Martial Lord Level powers that dominated a region, and had a high status.
However, in the past year, the five major powers that had been keeping each other in check had been keeping each other in check. Their relationship had become extremely delicate, and many battles had broken out in both the open and in the dark. It shocked the Tianfeng City. But later on, for the sake of the King's Banquet, every major power had gradually adopted a calm attitude. Only the conflicts between the younger generation disciples were still ongoing, and battles of various sizes broke out frequently.
Han Feng and the others walked slowly, and when they returned to the Tianfeng City and saw this familiar building, they couldn't help but feel an inexplicable emotion. This kind of emotion seemed to be called 'cordial'.
"Today, the Tianfeng City is very lively. I wonder if there is something interesting going on." Sun Tianwang looked at the crowd rushing past him. He was in high spirits, as if he was preparing to participate in some kind of pageant.
"We will know when we ask." Han Feng said with a smile, turned around, and pulled a passerby over. He said, "This big brother, I wonder what new things are happening in the outer city that makes everyone so excited?"
"Today, the fighting stage will be opened, and the people from the Falling Pavilion and the god 's favored of Hongtian Academy will be fighting. Don't tell me that all of you don't know about such a grand event? " The passerby was a little surprised. This news had spread since half a month ago. If the people in the outer city did not know about it, how could these four youths not know?
"We just came back from outside, so we really do not know about the battle." Han Feng smiled, and only then did the passerby understand, and nodded. “ So that's how it was. This matter had to be started half a month ago. The conflict between the Falling Pavilion and the Hongtian Academy had been going on for a long time. Half a month ago... A disciple of the Falling Pavilion was accidentally killed by a student of the Hongtian Academy, causing a conflict between the two major powers. The three god 's favoreds of the Falling Pavilion had joined forces to challenge the sixth, seventh, and eighth Earth Ranking of the Hongtian Academy. The day of the battle will be today. "
"There's actually such a good show. Looks like we can't miss it." Sun Tianwang smiled. He had already broken through to the Earth Energy Stage Level Three. He wanted to see how strong the god 's favored on the Earth Ranking was.
One should know that the Earth Ranking was a list that included the strongest Earth Energy Stage students in the Hongtian Academy. The person ranked sixth and seventh on the Earth Ranking wouldn't lose to the god 's favored in the Iron Sword City.
"I won't talk to you guys anymore. I won't be able to get a good position in the future." The passerby hurriedly waved his hand and left. Han Feng and the others cupped their hands and thanked him, then said, "Let's go and take a look as well."
"Okay." Sun Tianwang took the lead and took a step forward. As soon as he returned to Tianfeng City, there was a battle between him and the Falling Pavilion. It was quite interesting.
The four of them headed towards the fighting stage in the outer city. Although this battle couldn't be compared to the South Stone Sword Platform, it had a long history in the Tianfeng City, and had left behind many glorious deeds.
"Senior Sun will return to the manor to handle some matters first. I wonder if he will come and take a look." Han Feng asked with a smile.
When Sun Tianwang heard this, the expression on his face became somewhat unnatural, "It's better not to come. I don't want him to harm me just because he sees some talented people."
The few of them burst into laughter. Not long after, the four of them arrived at the spectator seats on the fighting stage. The seats with better vision had already been occupied. Han Feng and the others stood there and watched, feeling that it was not a big deal.
At this moment, the battle had already begun. Falling Pavilion and Hongtian Academy had each sent out a god 's favored to fight on the fighting stage.
"Uncle, do you know which battle this is?" Han Feng asked a middle-aged man beside him. This middle-aged man was excited to see this. He didn't even turn his head to look at Han Feng, and said directly, "You guys came not too late. This is still the first round, the eighth round of Earth Ranking in Hongtian Academy. Qin Shang of the Falling Pavilion. "
"Qin Shang." Sun Tianwang narrowed his eyes," I've heard of this man's name half a year ago. It was said that he had killed more than ten powerful thieves of the same cultivation level in a row, which was very impressive. It seems like he has already broken through to the Peak iof Earth Energy Stage. "
"The outstanding disciples of the Falling Pavilion are indeed extraordinary." Han Feng looked at the battle on the fighting stage. Qin Shang seemed to have gained the upper hand. Han Feng knew the eighth person in the Earth Ranking in Hongtian Academy. It was Xiong Qian. He had been in the Earth Ranking for a few years.
Xiong Qian specialized in the will of strength. A terrifying palm print was unleashed. It was as if the ground was going to collapse, but Qin Shang had condensed black and white Qi in his hand. He struck out ancient symbols, as if there were black and white Eight Trigrams circulating on the fighting stage. The light kept on shining, destroying everything.
"Qin Shang has only broken through to the Peak iof Earth Energy Stage in less than a year, and he already has such combat strength. Truly terrifying."
"There is still half a year left until the King's Banquet. During this period of time, Qin Shang still has time to improve his strength."
"Looks like there will be a few formidable god 's favoreds figures in the Falling Pavilion this time. Apart from Qin Shang... His two senior brothers were the direct disciples of the Falling Pavilion's Great Elder, and they were both very powerful. I'm afraid Hongtian Academy will suffer a loss this time. "
People were constantly talking about the strength of the god 's favored of the Falling Pavilion. Han Feng didn't feel anything when he heard them. After all, the outcome of the battle wasn't something that could be determined by the discussions of outsiders. The most important thing was to improve his own strength.
However, Sun Tianwang didn't seem to care about the discussions of the people around him. He said indifferently. "The disciples of the Falling Pavilion have been carefully nurtured by Master and the Pavilion Master. There are countless medicinal pills and resources, but they are nothing much. They are just barely able to fight the eighth genius of the Earth Ranking to a draw. How can I not know what's so great about them? "
The man who advocated the Falling Pavilion said disdainfully, "Xiong Qian should have been stuck at the Peak iof Earth Energy Stage for a few years, right? Being unable to break through to the Celestial Energy Stage was enough to show that his talent was lacking. Qin Shang, on the other hand, had only broken through to the Peak iof Earth Energy Stage for less than a year, but he had already gained the upper hand. Is the strength of the talent between the two not obvious enough?"
Sun Tianwang said that the people of Falling Pavilion relied on pills to increase their strength, while the students of Hongtian Academy mostly relied on their own talent to cultivate. These words were not wrong, perhaps they still could not see the effect. However, those who relied on their own strength to increase their cultivation level would have more energy behind them. They could also go further on the road of martial arts.
As for the disciples of the Falling Pavilion, when they were at the Earth Energy Stage, they possessed extraordinary combat strength. It was obvious that they couldn't be separated from the numerous Pharmacists in the Falling Pavilion. They had stimulated their potential prematurely, thus hindering their future development.
Many people with discerning eyes knew this, but they wouldn't point it out. Now that Sun Tianwang had said it out loud, it could be said that he didn't give any face to the Falling Pavilion.
The person who admired the Falling Pavilion's Martial Cultivator scoffed at this. After all, stepping into the Earth Energy Stage and Celestial Energy Stage was their lifelong dream. Whether they could reach a higher realm or not didn't make any difference to them.
Therefore, the other party had seized Xiong Qian's talent and made a fuss about it, thus comparing the advantages and disadvantages of the students from both sides. This made Sun Tianwang feel unpleasant.
"According to what brother said, the disciples of the Falling Pavilion are very talented?"
"Of course." The other party nodded as if it was a matter of course.
"That can't be right. How could I remember? Just a few months ago... The direct disciple of the Master of the Falling Pavilion was killed by a student from the Hongtian Academy. Even the god 's favored figure of the Marquis's Mansion, the foster son of the Marquis... They all died in the hands of that student. Furthermore, that student at that time had crossed realms and fought." Sun Tianwang said with a smile, his gaze looking towards Han Feng. Han Feng laughed it off and did not mind.
"Are you talking about Han Feng?" The other party quickly reacted. This name had faded from the eyes of the people in Tianfeng City for more than half a year. However, what he had done was still fresh in their minds. That day, he killed two great god 's favored figures and left Tianfeng City. This had caused quite a lot of trouble for Hongtian Academy. A few Martial Lord warriors were fighting in a world-shaking manner. In the end, he managed to suppress this matter.
"You are still ignorant and ill-informed." Sun Tianwang sneered.
"Even if he is here, what's the use?" The opponent still had a look of disdain on his face, "I'm afraid he hasn't broken through to the Earth Energy Stage yet. Could it be that he can fight a Peak iof Earth Energy Stage warrior's god 's favored?"
"You'll know when you look down." Sun Tianwang's voice had a deeper meaning in his eyes, causing that person to laugh coldly in his heart. However, the outcome of the battle was about to be decided, so both of them didn't say anything.
Xiong Qian unleashed a terrifying attack with his palm, as if a huge piece of land had been swept out by him. He crazily pressed down on Qin Shang, and endless black and white light burst out from Qin Shang's body. The radiance of the Eight Trigrams swept across everything, and shattered Xiong Qian's palm.
Both of them unleashed their strongest attacks. A rumbling sound reverberated on the fighting stage. The overbearing attack seemed to have destroyed everything. Everyone could only feel the blazing light in front of them. It was like a sea of fire that could penetrate the heaven and earth.
"Xiong Qian, I didn't expect you to have cultivated for so many years. Still so weak. " Qin Shang said sarcastically, "When I was still at the Peak of Minor Genuine Martial Stage, you were already a member of the Earth Ranking. But after a few years, I have already broken through to the Peak iof Earth Energy Stage. You still haven't broken through to a higher realm. Furthermore... The battle is so weak."
Xiong Qian's face turned red. These words were his weakness, but Qin Shang had said them without any mercy. It was as if the words had hit his heart.
"You really have a lot of nonsense to say!" Xiong Qian said angrily. The terrifying fist strike had killed everything, and its power was even more terrifying. However, Xiong Qian's steps had obviously become chaotic. Qin Shang's lips curled into a faint smile. He took a step forward, and the black and white energies intertwined, avoiding Xiong Qian's fist strike. A palm landed on Xiong Qian's body.
"Pu!" Xiong Qian suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and Qin Shang seized the opportunity to pursue while he was winning. He struck out with the Palm of Eight Trigrams once more, causing Xiong Qian to completely lose his combat strength, and he was blasted off the fighting stage by the palm strike.
"Trash." Qin Shang laughed in a shameful manner, causing the people of the Hongtian Academy to be infuriated. This kid was really arrogant.
"The rule of winning two out of three battles, you guys have already lost the first match." Qin Shang's eyes swept across the people of Hongtian Academy one by one, and his unrestrained gaze caused their bodies to surge with fury.
The people beside Sun Tianwang turned around and revealed a proud smile to Sun Tianwang. The truth had proven what he had said. The disciples of Falling Pavilion were even more talented!
