756: C756 Zheng Shihua

C756 Zheng Shihua

However, as a Heaven's Pride disciple, there was no need to participate in the first day of the competition.

The first day was the competition between the ordinary inner disciples. The second day was the elite disciples. The third day was the Heaven's Pride disciple.

Although it was very lively, Su Jue only watched for a while before returning to continue his cultivation.

On the second day, it was the elite disciple exam.

The second day's competition was extremely intense. In the end, three people became Heaven's Pride disciples, making up for the empty spots of the last three.

However, this did not attract the attention of the original heaven's pride disciples. To them, these three had only entered the sect because three out of the ten heaven's pride level experts had been lucky.

In these past two days, Su Jue went to the Artifact Forging Tower to try to refine the famed tool, the magic blade of the seventh tribulation.

On the morning of the third day, Su Jue woke from his meditative state, a trace of worry on his face.

The inner sect competition this time would be very disadvantageous for him, because his time in the Heaven Realm was too short, and he did not have much time to cultivate the way of Artifact Forging, which resulted in him being unable to successfully forge the famed tool, the Demon Luo Saber.

If he was unable to refine the Seven Calamity Equipment, then he would very likely lose to Ao Wuji in the great competition this time.

Because Ao Wuji was an Intermediate Grandmaster.

The Grandmaster Realm was divided into three stages. He was a low-ranked Grandmaster and was only able to refine Six-Heavenly Tribulation's artifact, while Ao Wuji was able to refine Seventh Heavenly Tribulation's artifact.

"Buzz!"

The bell sounded. The Li Huo Zong Heaven's Pride Disciple Battle Equipment was about to begin.

Su Jue slowly walked out of the cave of ice and fire towards the Martial Arts Stadium.

Although it was still early in the morning, Martial Arts Stadium was already packed full of people.

"Look, Su Jue is here."

The crowd burst into an uproar.

"Is this Su Jue? It's said that he has always lived in the cave of ice and fire."

"That's right, he is the person who cultivates the fastest in our Li Huo Zong. He is not one of us."

"If only I could be like him."

Su Jue's appearance had undoubtedly caused a huge commotion, and some of the outer sect disciples who had taken the opportunity to watch the competition with great difficulty became even more excited.

"Hmph, what's so special about that. Now I'm a heaven's pride expert as well."

At the other side, three youths dressed in heaven's pride level attire looked at Su Jue with displeasure.

The three of them were the new disciples of heaven's pride level, Ruan Jiu, Ruan Yi, and Zheng Shihua.

The Ruan Brothers were already resentful towards Su Jue, so now that Su Jue had stolen the limelight from them, they were naturally even more unhappy.

"I don't think Su Jue is that great. I, Zheng Shihua, really want to meet him." Zheng Shihua, who was standing beside the Ruan Brothers and had a haughty expression, said provocatively as he looked at Su Jue.

He himself was also a disciple of the Seven Stars Pavilion, but he had always been in seclusion, and his time in the Li Huo Zong was relatively short as well.

But now, he had leaped up to become a Heaven's Pride disciple. This was what he had been hoping for and also the goal of his closed door cultivation for a long time.

Su Jue's eyes were a little indifferent. Even though he had detected Zheng Shihua's gaze, he did not even look him in the eye.

"Humph!"

After being directly ignored by Su Jue, Zheng Shihua was somewhat angry, and said: "Everyone says that your cultivation speed is the fastest, and your artifact forging strength is astonishing. The latter, I don't judge but in terms of strength, hmph."

The voice was filled with a bar tone, and the crowd suddenly became extremely quiet.

"It's actually Zheng Shihua. He's only a tenth ranked heaven's pride level expert and yet he dares to challenge the seventh ranked Su Jue."

"With Su Jue's personality, he will definitely beat Zheng Shihua up to the point where he can't find a solution."

"That's right, Su Jue is much stronger than Zheng Shihua."

But to everyone's surprise, Su Jue did not speak and just stood quietly below the stage, waiting for the competition to start.

"Haha!"

A moment later, Zheng Shihua suddenly burst into laughter.

"I knew you were a paper tiger. As expected, haha …" Zheng Shihua laughed crazily. A wave of power at the second level of Star King Realm directly struck Su Jue.

But unexpectedly, the force was like a gust of wind, only lifting up a few leaves on the ground, not even Su Jue's clothes.

Second level of Star King Realm

Su Jue laughed faintly. Although he was a little surprised that this unknown Zheng Shihua actually had such strength, it was almost impossible for him.

"It's interesting that you're not afraid of my imposing might, but Su Jue, give me your sixth seat today." Zheng Shihua sneered.

What answered him were Su Jue's slightly closed eyes.

"Coward, I'm challenging you, yet you don't dare to accept my challenge?" Zheng Shihua said aggressively.

"What the hell is going on? Why is Su Jue afraid of Zheng Shihua?"

"Could it be that Su Jue is really a paper tiger, and his strength is not even comparable to Zheng Shihua?"

"It seems to be true. Like I said, how could they improve so quickly in such a short period of time? It must be fake."

For a time, everyone began to discuss with one another.

Zheng Shihua's heart skipped a beat. He looked at the Ruan brothers and said, "Did you see that? This is the fierce character you spoke of. In fact, he's just a piece of trash."

The Ruan brothers were also somewhat suspicious, to the point where Ruan Jiu was regretting giving the chance to insult Su Jue to Zheng Shihua.

"Could it be that he's really scared?" Ruan Jiu looked at Ruan Ruan.

Ruan Yi's expression was filled with hesitation, then he looked at Su Jue and said: "Su Jue, I truly feel ashamed for you, to not even have the courage to fight Zheng Shihua."

"Haha, it's not that he doesn't have courage, but it's because I'm stronger than him, more of a genius. You said that his cultivation speed is the fastest, and I'm telling you, it hasn't even been a year since I came to Li Huo Zong.

After Zheng Shihua finished speaking, he walked over to Su Jue's side and said: "Su Jue, I want to stand in your position now, do you know what to do?"

Su Jue frowned. He originally had no interest in arguing with these kinds of characters, but he did not expect that this Zheng Shihua would actually not stop.

"It's so big here, how can I not stand?" Su Jue laughed.

"That's right. This place is huge, but I have to stand in your position. Scram!" Zheng Shihua bellowed.

"Are you an idiot?" Su Jue turned his head towards Zheng Shihua and asked suspiciously.

"You dare to call me an idiot? You're giving me a chance to teach you a lesson."

With that, Zheng Shihua suddenly threw out a punch that struck Su Jue.

"Buzz!"

But right at this moment, the aura of the peak of the sixth stage of Star King Realm directly destroyed Zheng Shihua's power, and then smashed onto his body.

Zheng Shihua's entire body flew backwards, upon landing on the ground, his body seemed to have disintegrated. He pointed at Su Jue and was unable to say anything for a long while.

"Peak of the sixth stage of Star King Realm, my god!"

The crowd cried out in alarm.

The Ruan Brothers still had lingering fear in their hearts as they patted their chests, secretly glad that it was Zheng Shihua who provoked Su Jue and not himself.

"All you did was bully people like them."

Right at this time, an extremely discordant voice came from afar, it was Ao Wuji, Man Yao and the rest.

"Su Jue, how dare you!"

Another voice rang out, and this time, it was a short youth.

"Xue Ziyang, your dry son has his bones broken by someone, how dare you say that?" Wu Zecheng, who was behind the short youth, said while walking.

Xue Ziyang, ranked fourth among the heaven's pride experts, only second to Man Yao.

"Su Jue, you better give me an explanation." Xue Ziyang looked at Su Jue and said.

"Son of a bitch!"

Su Jue could not help but smile, and then said: "Your son did not teach his father, it seems that you also owe him a heavy debt."

The meaning behind his words was that Xue Ziyang should also be taught a lesson.

"So arrogant, even Xue Ziyang wants to teach him a lesson."

"A Heaven's Pride rank 6 and a Heaven's Pride rank 4. There's something to see."

"Su Jue, I know you're arrogant, but you better know who your opponent is." Xue Ziyang said as he looked at Su Jue coldly.

"Whoever wants to cause trouble with me, is my opponent." Su Jue said without the slightest hesitation.

"You're courting death!"

Xue Ziyang was furious.

For a moment, the Martial Arts Stadium was filled with killing intent.

"Step down!"

Just at this moment, the meritorious elder floated over. With a wave of his hand, he sent Xue Ziyang flying back.

"What's going on?"

The one who followed closely behind was the sword holding elder.

"It's Su Jue. He broke all of Zheng Shihua's tibia and now only has half a life left." Xue Ziyang looked at sword holding elder and said.

The sword holding elder frowned: "It's you again, Su Jue, do you still have the laws and regulations of the Li Huo Zong in your heart?"0

"Do you want to tell me the sect's rules again? There are thousands of people watching here, and it was him who first attacked me." Su Jue said in disdain.

"I think we should put it on hold for now. Should we fight today, or should we focus on the competition?" The meritorious elder said in a low voice.

"Hmph, take Zheng Shihua down there and wait for him to wake up. I must get to the bottom of this. It's not over yet." The sword holding elder shouted in anger.

Su Jue's expression was somewhat cold and detached. He didn't think that today's matter was a coincidence, and even if Zheng Shihua was stupid, he still knew that his strength was far from his own. Yet, he still chose to provoke him.

Clearly, someone was doing this on purpose.

The purpose of doing this, was to make himself more guilty. The final goal was nothing more than to chase him out of Li Huo Zong, and wait for a chance to make a move on him.

When he thought of this, Su Jue's gaze towards the sword holding elder became even colder.

sword holding elder also looked at Su Jue at the same time, his eyes carrying a trace of cunning, and revealed a strange smile without any concealment.

"Sect Master has arrived!"

With a loud shout, Ren Qingfeng and Wu Yiqing flew in from afar and landed on the highest throne.

"Let's begin." Ren Qingfeng said as he looked at meritorious elder.
