Chapter 17 The Lord of the Martial Palace
"The ninth level of body refining?" The assessment elder suddenly stood up, his face full of shock, but then he regained his composure, "It's not the ninth level of body refining, it's the seventh level of body refining!"
Seeing the surprised look of the assessment elder, the crowd under the competition stage fell into silence, and everyone was stunned.
I saw the assessment elder looking at Luo Xiu, still with surprise in his eyes, "What a pure and strong inner energy. The seventh level of body refining is almost as good as the ninth level of body refining. Even I almost got it wrong."
Among the crowd below, the expressions of Zhang Hai, Lu Feng and others were even more exciting, their jaws almost dropped to the ground in shock, their faces full of disbelief.
"Is this fucking fake? Three months ago, his cultivation level was lower than mine, but he is actually at the seventh level of body refining? And his inner energy is pure and strong, comparable to the ninth level of body refining?"
This evaluation is not a low one, it means that Luo Xiu almost has the strength to keep pace with the ninth level body refining warrior!
After the deathly silence, the whole place was in an uproar. Many people sucked in the air or swallowed their saliva. Especially those who knew Luo Xiu were even more shocked. It took three months to go from the second level to the seventh level of body refining. This speed of cultivation is unavoidable. Isn't it too scary?
Five small realms have been promoted in three months. Even though the Qingyun City Martial Palace has been standing for more than 800 years, it has never appeared!
Liu Yuxin was also in the crowd, and her eyes became extremely complicated at this moment. Recalling that she had recommended him to be a guard at the Liu family in the library, no wonder Luo Xiu dismissed it.
With such an astonishing cultivation speed, who would be willing to devote himself to being a servant?
"Hmm, so what if the seventh level of body refining is good? I will destroy you today!" Zhang Hai's eyes flashed with sharp light. Although the assessment elder said that Luo Xiu's inner energy was comparable to the ninth level of body refining, he was still very confident.
Luo Xiu stood on the stage, feeling quite emotional, remembering that he was just a poor boy from a commoner background and was looked down upon by others.
Have you ever thought that you would have a day when everyone would be in the spotlight and you would be so high-spirited?
Luo Xiu walked down from the competition stage amid complex glances of envy or suspicion.
The assessment continued. After Luo Xiu passed the assessment, some more people came on stage. The elimination rate was astonishing.
There are only five people in the junior class who have passed the assessment, including Luo Xiu.
As for the assessment for the intermediate class to advance to the advanced class, the elimination rate is even higher, with only one person passing.
Because the further you get to the back, the more difficult it is to improve your cultivation.
"This annual assessment is over!" the assessment elder announced loudly, and then left the martial arts field.
However, the crowd surrounding them did not disperse, because almost everyone knew that there would be a competition after this annual assessment!
"Luo Xiu!"
A cold shout echoed in the air, and a figure jumped up and landed on the competition stage, standing proudly with his hands behind his back.
This person is none other than Zhang Hai!
"Teacher Lu came forward last time. Now you and I are both students in the intermediate class. Do you dare to come up and fight?"
After these words were spoken, everyone's eyes focused on Luo Xiu again.
"Hey, this Luo Xiu, a poor boy from a commoner background, has made such a big splash, let's see what he does this time."
"Advanced to five realms in three months, but high cultivation does not mean high strength. What's more, Zhang Hai is at the eighth level of body refining, which is higher than him!"
"Yes, yes, I don't believe he can improve so quickly. I heard that some methods can quickly improve his cultivation level in a short period of time, but it will damage the body and affect his future martial arts advancement."
Many people were talking about it. Although Luo Xiu shocked everyone in the annual assessment, no one still thought that he was Zhang Hai's opponent.
Amid many eyes full of envy, jealousy, and gloating, Luo Xiu stepped onto the competition stage.
The one who was envious and envious was naturally the fact that he had broken through five realms in just three months and was highly praised by the assessment elders. The one who was gloating was of course this poor boy who was in the limelight and was about to be severely beaten by Zhang Hai, who was at the eighth level of body refining. Teach a lesson.
Seeing Luo Xiu walking onto the competition stage, Zhang Hai's eyes flashed with cold eyes.
He has always regarded himself as a genius, reaching the eighth level of body refining at the age of fifteen, and is known to be able to become a Qihai realm warrior before the age of eighteen.
"Luo Xiu, don't think that you are qualified to compete with me at the seventh level of body training. I will let you understand how big the gap between us is!" Zhang Hai said with a sneer.
"Now even if you kneel down and beg for mercy, I will not let you go. You are destined to spend your life in bed."
A cruel smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Hai's mouth. He wanted to destroy all the meridians and muscles in this boy's body, making him a cripple for the rest of his life and unable to practice martial arts!
"You want to destroy me? Say it again?" Luo Xiu stared at Zhang Hai coldly.
"I just want to destroy you, a lowly waste like you. As long as I don't kill you, the Martial Palace will not punish me." Zhang Hai smiled disdainfully, with a fierce look in his eyes. He took a step forward, leaped up, and faced Luo Xiu rushed towards him.
Luo Xiu's body moved slightly to the left, and Zhang Hai's offensive failed instantly.
Zhang Hai quickly changed his moves, attacking like a violent storm, attacking one after another crazily, but Luo Xiu kept his hands behind his back from the beginning to the end. No matter how fierce his offensive was, he could not touch a piece of his clothes. horn.
For a time, dust was flying on the competition stage.
"Is this Luo Xiu's movement skills so exquisite? Is he already at the level of Xiaocheng?"
"With Zhang Hai's strength, he can't even touch a corner of his clothes. I guess this Luo Xiu's body skills are almost perfect!"
"I didn't expect Luo Xiu to be so powerful. Maybe he can really defeat Zhang Hai."
"It's a joke, it's just that he can hide. If there is a head-on confrontation, Luo Xiu will definitely be knocked out!"
A lot of people gathered near the competition stage, and the people's comments reached Zhang Hai's ears on the stage, making him feel ashamed and angry.
"Asshole! Do you only know how to hide? You are a coward!" Zhang Hai roared, raised his leg and swept across, kicking Luo Xiu's head.
"Bang!"
This time Luo Xiu did not dodge, but raised his hand to block the blow.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Hai felt happy, and immediately changed his tactics and shouted angrily, "Mountain-Breaking Palm!"
Luo Xiu looked disdainful, his aura suddenly changed, and he punched out.
"not good!"
Zhang Hai was shocked and felt a ferocious and violent aura coming from Luo Xiu's body, which was extremely depressing.
"Tamron style!"
"Bang!"
A fierce force came, and Zhang Hai felt severe pain in his palm, and his body flew backwards.
"Wow!"
While in mid-air, Zhang Hai spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell five or six meters away, throwing up a cloud of dust and making stars appear in his eyes.
"Is this how you cripple me?" Luo Xiu sneered disdainfully on the competition stage.
"This is impossible!" Zhang Hai stood up unsteadily, his mouth full of blood, his face ferocious, "How could I lose to you, a pariah?"
"Go to hell!" Zhang Hai roared, stepped out, and slapped Luo Xiu fiercely with his palms.
He couldn't tolerate being a genius defeated by a boy from a humble background!
"Don't overestimate your capabilities." Luo Xiu did not dodge, and directly grabbed Zhang Hai's wrist with his reach.
No matter how Zhang Hai circulated his inner energy, he tried to free Luo Xiu's hands, but all his inner energy was dissolved into nothingness. His wrists seemed to be clamped by iron pliers, and the pain was unbearable.
"How is this possible? Is his inner energy really comparable to the ninth level of body refining?" Zhang Hai's heart was filled with waves, and he only felt a surging inner energy impacting his meridians and muscles.
"Crack!"
The sound of bones breaking was heard, and before Zhang Hai could scream, Luo Xiu kicked him hard in the chest.
"Bang!"
Zhang Hai's body flew backwards five to six meters away and fell to the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust.
"There is no enmity between me and you Zhang brothers, but you provoke me again and again, just like annoying flies. How about it? How does it feel to be stepped on by the trash you talk about?"
Looking at Zhang Hai who fell to the ground with a face full of pain, Luo Xiu's eyes flashed with a cold light.
"You...what are you going to do?" Zhang Hai felt the dangerous aura from Luo Xiu's body, and suddenly became panicked.
"What am I going to do? Of course I'll retaliate in kind, destroy your cultivation, and let you lie in bed for the rest of your life." Luo Xiu sneered.
"How dare you! My father is the head of the Zhang family. If you dare to touch me, you will definitely die!" Zhang Hai roared with a ferocious face.
However, Luo Xiu was not moved at all. He even dared to kill people in Shuiwu Mountain!
"Bang!"
He punched Zhang Hai's body, and the energy of life and death poured into the opponent's body, destroying his life veins. Zhang Hai screamed in an instant, the meridians on his body burst apart, his face turned pale, and the corners of his mouth bleed.
"Don't you look down on common people? Now you are a useless person, even worse than the untouchables you despise most. Feel free to feel what it feels like to be looked down upon by others!"
Luo Xiu's eyes were full of indifference, he turned around and walked off the competition stage.
At this moment, the crowd watching under the competition stage was already dead silent, especially when they saw that Luo Xiu was so ruthless and directly destroyed Zhang Hai. Everyone stayed away from him, looking at him with eyes full of Of fear and fear.
"elder brother!……"
Zhang Hao ran up to the competition stage and shouted, "Here comes someone!"
But no matter how much he shouted, no one came to help. Even the civilians who usually hung out with their brothers looked indifferent at the moment.
Since Zhang Hai is already a useless person, it is naturally not worthy of them to do anything else.
Far away from the competition stage, on an attic, two figures stood side by side, taking in a panoramic view of the competition just now.
One of the figures was none other than the elder who was responsible for the assessment. His name was Zhuang Nantian, and he was one of the few innate martial arts masters in Qingyun City.
The figure standing side by side with Zhuang Nantian is a middle-aged man with a kind face, wearing a loose white robe.
"Elder Zhuang, do you think this Luo's body cultivation at the seventh level is comparable to the ninth level of body cultivation?" the man in white robe said.
"Yes, Palace Master. According to the investigation, this Luo Xiu was still at the second level of body refining three months ago. His cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds in recent times, but what he has practiced is just ordinary second-level martial arts." Zhuang Nantian said respectfully. .
There is naturally only one person in the entire Qingyun City who can be treated with such respect by Elder Zhuang, the innate martial artist, and address him as the Palace Master, and that is the highest authority in the Qingyun City Martial Palace, the Master of the Martial Palace!
In Qingyun City, the forces are complex, including the Hunters Guild, the Formation Master Guild, the Alchemist Guild, and the Caster Guild. However, the real master of Qingyun City is the Lord of the Martial Palace!
Yunlong County is the sphere of influence of Xiaoyao Sect and is the master of this land. The martial arts halls in every city are also created by Xiaoyao Sect, and Qingyun City is just one of hundreds of cities in Yunlong County!
"A child born from a commoner can reach this level. He is indeed a rare genius. We can focus on cultivating him." The master of the martial arts palace said with a smile.
