Peerless Battle Spirit
Chapter 22: Disdainful and Imperious

Following Bai Heng’s words, the astonishment on the disciples’ faces grew stronger.

They had not expected Qin Nan to possess a cultivation of the fifth-layer Body Tempering Realm.

Wasn’t he considered a piece of trash?

Fang Li and Fang Rulong, in particular, were greatly astounded. The disciples might be clueless, but they clearly knew the significance of the Greater Success Stage of One with the Saber.

Even in the entire Fang Clan, only two people had managed to reach the Greater Success Stage of One with the Weapon.

While the people of the Fang Clan were stunned, the Qin Clan was immersed in a great shock too.

The expressions of Qin Tieba, Qin Changkong, and the elders stiffened, as they recalled that Qin Nan’s cultivation was only at the fourth-layer Body Tempering Realm a few days ago.

How was it at the fifth-layer Body Tempering Realm now? And how had he achieved the Greater Success Stage of One with the Saber?

Wasn’t Qin Nan’s Martial Spirit only first-grade Huang ranked? Why was his cultivation improving at such a terrifying speed...

Elder Bai Heng soon collected his thoughts, while his face became slightly unpleasant. His eyes were filled with an icy look as he glanced in Fang Li’s direction.

This Fang Li dared to hide the fact that the Qin Clan had such a peerless genius?

Fang Li’s heart was filled with a chill while his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He instantly blurted out, “Elder Bai Heng, this Qin Nan is the Young Master of the Qin Clan, who has possessed outstanding Martial Skill Talent since he was young, and even managed to invent his own Martial Skill. However, his Martial Spirit is only first-grade Huang ranked. He was only able to rank up his cultivation by stumbling into some fortunate encounter in the Longhu Mountain Range.”

Fang Li’s explanation allowed the disciples and elders of the Fang Clan to come to a realization.

It was reasonable to reach the cultivation of the fifth-layer Body Tempering Realm if he had managed to find some fortunate encounter.

Otherwise, it would take him years to reach his current cultivation with his first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit.

Among the crowd of the Fang Clan, Fang Rulong’s initially astounded expression immediately recovered after hearing the words, before his gaze toward Qin Nan was filled with disdain.

So what if you, Qin Nan, possessed a cultivation of the fifth-layer Body Tempering Realm? So what if you reached the Greater Success Stage of One with the Saber?

With a first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit, you were doomed to be trash.

“I see, so a useless first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit.” Bai Heng collected his thoughts. He felt like he had just been cheated, causing him to feel unpleasant. He spoke in a cold tone, “Alright, stop wasting time and finish the battle.”

His attitude toward Qin Nan turned incredibly icy.

Hearing the words, in addition to the Fang Clan, the people of the Qin Clan were glancing at Qin Nan with gloating expressions.

Now that Elder Bai Heng was not fond of Qin Nan, what kind of future did he still have?

Qin Tian and Tie San’s expressions became displeased, but they were forced to endure it to prevent a greater disaster from befalling them.

Meanwhile, on the ring, Qin Nan’s face turned cold, but he quickly withdrew it before anyone could see it.

Even though he was not happy with Elder Bai Heng’s comments, he did not lose his mind to anger. If he were to display his emotion on his face, this Elder Bai Heng would surely target him.

This was not what Qin Nan had planned for.

“Piss off.” Qin Nan uttered a roar. The saber intent on his body was fully unleashed onto his opponent.

“I… I surrender… I surrender…” Qin Hai immediately surrendered as if his life had just been spared. He even glanced at the judge pleadingly.

It did not matter how the Fang Clan, the Qin Clan, and Elder Bai Heng were treating Qin Nan, all that was left in Qin Hai’s mind was to run away from here.

Under the threat of death, even if Qin Nan demanded him to drop to his knees, he would do so without hesitation.

Besides, there was no rule stating that the participants were not allowed to kill in the duels. Therefore, Qin Hai was willing to do anything to keep himself alive.

“Winner: Qin Nan!” The judge announced.

Qin Nan exited from the ring and returned to his seat while ignoring the gloating gazes of the Qin Clan. His expression remained calm as if his surroundings were never his concern.

Following this, the duels continued. However, due to Qin Nan’s shocking performance, the following ones were relatively dull.

After all, even those with fourth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirits would only have reached the second-layer Body Tempering Realm now.

Thirteen duels after, the judge announced, “Next, Fang Rulong from the Fang Clan versus Qin Li from the Qin Clan.”

Fang Rulong!

The name immediately grabbed the attention of the crowd, in particular the Qin Clan, as everyone focused their gaze onto his figure.

The people of Linshui City clearly knew that Fang Rulong was the Young Master of the Fang Clan. Even though they were clueless as to the Martial Spirit he had ended up awakening, according to the information spread out from the people of the Fang Clan, his Martial Spirit was a fifth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit as well.

A fifth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit was considered a top talent in Linshui City, as only Qin Changkong from the Qin Clan possessed the same level Martial Spirit.

“Humph.” Qin Changkong uttered a hollow laugh after realizing that the crowd’s attention was fully attracted by Fang Rulong, “How is a mere Fang Rulong becoming the limelight? Only I am worthy to become the disciple of the Mystic Spirit Sect.”

The elders and deacons around him nodded their heads.

After all, Qin Changkong had already been chosen as the disciple of the Mystic Spirit Sect. He was only participating in the selection as it was the official procedure.

How could Fang Rulong be comparable with Qin Changkong?

Qin Li who was chosen to duel with Fang Rulong was an average talent among the disciples of the Qin Clan. He had awakened a third-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit. Although his cultivation had yet to reach the second-layer Body Tempering Realm, his aura appeared to be stable, an indication that he had reached the peak first-layer Body Tempering Realm.

Fang Rulong entered the ring and suddenly burst out laughing after seeing Qin Li, “What right does a piece of trash like you have to battle against me? You have two choices—surrender now or be crippled!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a ferocious aura burst out from his body, which turned out to be the third-layer Body Tempering Realm.

The people of the Qin Clan were startled. Even Qin Nan frowned hearing this.

This Fang Rulong was extremely full of himself, threatening to cripple his opponent straight away. He had no respect for the Qin Clan.

“How scornful!” Qin Changkong’s face was filled with anger as he spoke in a cold tone, “Does he really think he is the top genius of Linshui City?”

The elders, deacons, and disciples became furious and burst out scolding.

Fang Rulong stood on the ring and laughed even harder as if he did not hear the curses, “You have five seconds to decide. Five, four, three…”

Qin Li’s face thoroughly reddened while his eyes spat fire in rage.

Fang Rulong was trying to humiliate him!

However, when he saw the sharp gaze in Fang Rulong’s eyes, his heart suddenly shivered.

For some reason, Qin Li’s heart was filled with growing terror, as if a cold bucket had just put out the flames of anger within him.

Qin Li’s mental crumbled all of a sudden, “I surrender! I surr..”

It was expected for Qin Li to make that decision. Even the people of the Qin Clan did not blame him, despite feeling a little embarrassed.

After all, the difference in terms of both cultivation and Martial Spirit was too huge between the two.

Anyone else would have made the same choice too.

However, the following scene caused the crowd to open their eyes wide.

Before Qin Li could finish his words, “Fang Rulong suddenly let out a hideous grin as his figure sprang forward like a raging beast. He hurled out a powerful punch aimed at Qin Li’s figure.

“AH——” A piercing cry in agony immediately sounded as Qin Li’s figure was sent flying like an arrow being released. He crashed into the ground and fell unconscious.

The area fell dead silent, as nobody had expected Fang Rulong to attack all of a sudden!

Fang Rulong raised his head and laughed in a conceited manner, “In my opinion, trash like him has no right to surrender. Any trash is not worthy to live in this world. They shall all be crippled before me!”
