Peerless Martial God - C76 Cruelty on the Shelf
C76 Cruelty on the Shelf
Chu Qing, Sect Master of Bright Moon Sect, father of the Young Master Roc Chu Zhanpeng.
Han Xuetian, Sect Master of Icy Snow Mountain Villa.
Teng Wushan, the deputy Sect Master of Myriad Beasts Sect.
Duan Tianlang, the prince of the imperial family, was the father of the young prince, Duan Han, who had come to the Cloud Sea Sect a few days ago.
Other than the Sunset Sect, the Yue Family, and the Yu Family in the Imperial City, the other four forces, including the Imperial Family had appeared at the same time. They had come uninvited, especially on the Cloud Sea Sect’s Sect Competition. Obviously they were not here to send their congratulations.
“Sect Master Nangong, I have brought some friends to visit. Please do not blame me.”
Duan Tianlang stood atop his gigantic sword, clad in a white armor, exuding an awe-inspiring might. As the sound of his voice faded, his gigantic sword directly descended onto the grandstand. One corner of the grandstand was smashed into ash by the sword force.
At the same time, Chu Qing, Han Xuetian, and the Kun Python all landed on the grandstand, looking down on everyone else.
Beside Duan Tianlang, Duan Han stared coldly at Nangong Ling. He had always held a grudge against Nangong Ling for bullying him and forcing him to leave that day. Today, he would teach the Cloud Sea Sect a lesson.
“Haha, it’s an honor for us that the Heavenly Wolf King came as a guest to the Cloud Sea Sect.” Although Nangong Ling’s heart was cold, he still said with a smile, “I wonder why the Heavenly Wolf King and the Sect Masters came?”
“My son Duan Han came here a few days ago. I believe Sect Master Nangong is clear on the reason for his visit. His Majesty has the foresight and prepares to establish the Snow Moon Holy Academy. So we need everyone to help. Moreover, the other Sect Masters have all agreed to His Majesty’s request. Only the Cloud Sea Sect…”
As he spoke, Duan Tianlang paused for a moment, then he smiled without saying a word.
“Hmm?” Nangong Ling had a strange feeling in his heart. Chu Qing, Han Xuetian, and the others were all cunning old foxes. How could they possibly hand over their sect’s talented disciples? They should be clear, as long as they hand them over, it was very possible that they would belong to the Imperial Family, not to them, in the future.
However, when Chu Qing and the others heard Duan Tianlang’s words, their expressions were very calm. It was as if this matter was already like this, causing Nangong Ling to be confused.
“What is the Heavenly Wolf King’s plan?” Nangong Ling asked.
“Since Sect Master Nangong is unwilling to gift talents to His Majesty, then I can only personally select them for him. Coincidentally, today is the sect competition of the Cloud Sea Sect. I can see the talents of the Cloud Sea Sect’s disciples and choose them one by one.” Duan Tianlang spoke in a straightforward and domineering tone.
The expressions of all the people from the Cloud Sea Sect changed. How arrogant! What did they take the Cloud Sea Sect as? How could they just randomly pick people from the Cloud Sea Sect?
“What if I don’t agree?” Nangong Ling’s voice turned slightly cold.
“Sect Master Nangong will agree, just like the other sect masters.” Duan Tianlang were filled with strong confidence, as if no one was able to defy his words.
“Sect Master Nangong, don’t be in a hurry to argue. Let the disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect carry out the sect competition and try their best to show off. The Snow Moon Holy Academy doesn’t need mediocre person. As long as you can enter the Snow Moon Holy Academy, the Snow Moon Country will be your shield. You will have endless medicinal pills and weapons, and you will be able to pick any of the powerful martial skills or martial techniques and become the sharp sword of the Snow Moon.”
The words of Duan Tianlang was transmitted to all the disciples of the Cloud Sea Sect. As long as he joined the Snow Moon Holy Academy, he would have endless martial skills and techniques, and powerful weapons and pills. What a good thing it was! To those sect disciples who yearned for powerful strength, it was too enticing.
They had come to the Cloud Sea Sect for the sake of cultivation and for the sake of becoming stronger. If the Snow Moon Holy Academy could provide them with better opportunities, why would they still stay in the Cloud Sea Sect?
At this moment, many people’s hearts were starting to stir, secretly warning themselves that they must go all out in the Sect Competition.
“Despicable.”
Nangong Ling scolded in his heart. Duan Tianlang’s scheme of sowing dissension was not very good, but it worked.
What was more unbearable to Nangong Ling was the blatant provocation towards the Cloud Sea Sect.
“I want to see who will betray the Cloud Sea Sect.” Nangong Ling’s heart was cold as he said to Duan Tianlang, “Since the Heavenly Wolf King wants to watch the Sect Competition of Cloud Sea Sect, Nangong Ling will satisfy your need.”
“The ranking battles of outer sect disciples and core disciples are postponed to a later date. Today is only for the inner sect disciple battles.”
Hearing Nangong Ling’s words, everyone was shocked. However, after some thought, they understood what Nangong Ling meant.
The outer sect disciples were too weak to show the Cloud Sea Sect’s strength, and the core disciples were the core members of the sect. They would be the successors of the sect soon, so it wasn’t a good idea to reveal their strength too early. It was appropriate to hold the inner sect disciple battles at this moment.
A trace of a special smile flickered in Duan Tianlang’s eyes. Did you believe it would really work?
“The inner sect disciples will go up to the Platform of Life and Death according to the ranking on the stone wall. Arrange in the correct order.”
Nangong Ling spoke once again and instantly, the 81 people whose names were carved on the stonewall all stepped onto the Platform of Life and Death. They were the focus of everyone’s attention and were all honored.
“I’ll change the rules of this year’s sect competition for inner sect disciples as well. Those who want to participate in the ranking battles must first challenge the top 81 inner sect disciples, and only the winners will be qualified to participate in the ranking battles. Moreover, the challenger cannot challenge the same person consecutively.”
Nangong Ling continued to speak and the crowd went into an uproar. Many of them were disappointed because they wanted to show their faces in the sect competition to test their strength. However, it seems that they won’t have the chance.
“Also, in this challenge, if you want to seize the qualification, life or death is determined by your fate.”
BOOM! Everyone’s hearts trembled. “Life or death is determined by your fate.”
If they challenged the inner sect disciples who ranked top 81, they would certainly be hated by others. With this rule, it was very possible that the battles would take their lives. This also meant that they could not afford to lose.
They had only just obtained the right to participate in the ranking tournament if they win the battles. Being defeated would have serious consequences, and could even be the price of one’s life.
“It is not worth it.”
“It’s not worth it to risk my life on my qualification to the ranking battles. At worst, I’ll just participate in the Sect Competition next year.”
Countless disciples shook their heads and whispered to each other. This was too risky, and not worth it.
“Lin Feng, the sect master is so ruthless. Right now, I just entered the Spiritual Martial Stage, but I am only at the First level. The 81 people on the rock wall are still at the Second level of the Spiritual Martial Stage. I’m probably hopeless.”
Han Man revealed a bitter smile. He originally wanted to have a hearty battle in the sect competition, but he didn’t expect it to be like this.
Lin Feng’s eyes flickered as he looked at Nangong Ling on the grandstand. This rule was indeed very ruthless, but it was able to eliminate those who were not powerful and those who were not brave enough to fight. And those who participated in the battles must be elite, strong enough and even daring to fight. This was the effect that Nangong Ling wanted. He wanted the inner disciples to display their best to the outsiders.
“The top 81 disciples are on the Platform of Life and Death. Now, other inner sect disciples can challenge any one of them and fight on the Platform of Life and Death in the center.”
After Nangong Ling said this, he sat down and looked at Duan Tianlang and the others.
“I am Luo Lie and I am willing to challenge You Lin.”
A man jumped onto the Platform of Life and Death. Because challengers couldn’t challenge the same person, the first challenger would undoubtedly have the advantage. He would be able to choose the last of the top 81 disciples, while You Lin ranked 81.
At this moment, You Lin’s face was extremely unsightly. He has expected to be the first one to be challenged and this made him embarrassed.
“I will kill any of the challengers, without mercy.”
Wenren Yan, who was standing at the front of the crowd, spoke with an ice-cold voice. This caused the inner disciples who wanted to challenge him to be shocked. This guy…
“Alright.”
…
You Lin nodded to Wenren Yan before jumping onto the Platform of Life and Death. He struck out with his Poisonous Dragon Fist, not holding back in the slightest. Even if Wenren Yan didn’t warn him, he would still kill the challenger.
…
After an incense’s time, in the Wind and Cloud Gorge, the area of the Platform of Life and Death became exceptionally quiet.
People all fixed theirs to the same area, the Platform of Life and Death, which was dyed red by blood. On top of the platform, there were five corpses. They were all challengers. Without exception, they were all defeated, killed on the spot. There wasn’t even anyone cleaning up the corpses.
Losing meant death.
The cruelty and blood made the flames of anger in those who wanted to challenge inner sect disciples extinguish.
In addition, these five only be challenged the last five disciples among top 81. If other people wanted to challenge in the future, they would need to challenge those ranked higher.
To be able to carve their names on the stonewall of inner sect disciples, none of them was mediocre people.
Nangong Ling sat in the grandstand. His eyes were indifferent. Perhaps this bloody lesson could make these disciples understand the cruelty of the Martial Tao form the depths of their hearts.
Only with an unswerving determination could one move forward bravely. Those who retreated due to cruelty and bloodshed were not qualified to pursue the peak of Martial Tao.
“A group of trash would covet the qualification to participate in the ranking battles. Death would be enough to extinguish the fantasies in your hearts.”
Wenren Yan pointed at the five corpses on the stage, coldly sweeping his gaze across the crowd, as though he was standing high above them, incomparably proud and arrogant.
He was the top one disciple in the inner sect and these people didn’t even have the qualification to participate in the inner sect ranking battles.
The expressions of the crowd were ugly, but they dared not to say anything. Wenren Yan had always been a tyrannical person, but his innate talent and strength were too outstanding. He was still valued by the sect, and no one dared to provoke him.
“Sect Master, I think we can start the ranking battles now. They have no hope.”
Wenren Yan looked at Nangong Ling and said.
Nangong Ling looked around at the crowd and slightly nodded his head. Although Wenren Yan was a little arrogant, he was indeed a rare genius in the Cloud Sea Sect. Sooner or later, he would become a pillar of the sect.
“How funny!”
Right at this moment, a mocking voice suddenly sounded out in the air, causing disturbance to in the crowd.
Wenren Yan raised his eyebrows as he swept his eyes across the crowd. Soon, his eyes fell on a certain spot with a cold glint in them.
“It’s you again.” Wenren Yan’s tone was icy cold, and his killing intent was obvious.
“What do you think is funny?”
“Right now, you’re the number one disciple in the inner sect. Standing at that height and looking down on others, you insult them as trash. However, you were trash too once, and obtained your current status step by step.”
Lin Feng had a trace of a sneer. Wenren Yan was too arrogant, and it was about time for him to wake up.
