Dragon Martial Sword Supreme
Chapter 43 - 43 A Sword Is Sufficient
The top ten prodigies of the Inner Sect, this title carries even more weight than that of the number one disciple of the Outer Sect because almost all of the current top ten prodigies of the Inner Sect had once been called the number one disciple of the Outer Sect. Yet many who had been the number one disciple of the Outer Sect failed to break into the top ten of the Inner Sect.
Shentu Yu, too, was once the number one disciple of the Outer Sect. During his era, his fame was no less than that of Zhao Letian at his peak.
However, even so, Shentu Yu was only ranked fourth among the top ten Inner Sect prodigies, with three even stronger individuals firmly above him.
But let's not even mention Shentu Yu, who ranks fourth in the Inner Sect. Even for the one who ranks tenth, to the people present, they are beings to look up to.
Therefore, at this moment, when everyone raised their heads to look at Shentu Yu, who stood upon his Golden Flying Sword in the sky, their eyes were filled with adoration for the strong. This was especially true when they saw the stunning beauty Liu Fei in his embrace. The male disciples at the scene couldn't help but show their envy and jealousy, fantasizing that if it were them holding Liu Fei, how wonderful it would be.
"Shentu Yu truly has a noble presence, with his purple robe and Golden Flying Sword, he emanates an air of unparalleled prestige. He truly deserves to be a top ten prodigy of the Inner Sect."
"Shentu Yu and Liu Fei are indeed a perfect match of talent and beauty. It serves Zhao Letian right to be outmaneuvered for her affection. A breathtaking beauty is only meant for the mighty. What standing does Zhao Letian have? He is merely an Outer Sect disciple." This content is presented by *.
"Indeed, Zhao Letian of the past probably couldn't even compare to Luo Hao now, let alone be worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as Shentu Yu. Ridiculous that he even dared to make improper advances on Shentu Yu's woman; he deserves to be beaten to death and fed to the fish."
Looking up at the sky, at the golden boy and jade girl, Liu Fei and Shentu Yu, people discussed amongst themselves.
At the same time, Luo Hao on the arena lifted his gaze for a brief moment to look at Shentu Yu, who was completely disregarding him, and then calmly retracted his gaze and closed his eyes to meditate on the stage once again.
Luo Hao was a martial maverick, overbearing, but not a fool. He knew very well who he could provoke and who he couldn't. The previous two Inner Sect disciples had unstable auras, obviously had just broken through to the True Martial Realm not long ago, and were not as strong as him. If they dared to act wildly in front of him, he would certainly not be polite. But Shentu Yu was different. Now, he probably couldn't even endure a casual palm strike from Shentu Yu. He would rather suffer some loss than provoke Shentu Yu.
However, Luo Hao's ambitions were immense. He was willing to give in for now, but as soon as the opportunity arose, he would step on all those stronger than him, Zhao Letian included, and Shentu Yu would be no exception.
"Hmph! This guy has no spine, his future accomplishments in the martial path are likely to be very limited. It's laughable that people compare him to Zhao Letian. If it were Zhao Letian, even knowing that he's no match for me, he wouldn't just swallow his words and endure it in silence." On the Golden Flying Sword, Shentu Yu saw Luo Hao not rebutting him and disdainfully sneered.
"I actually think that Luo Hao is stronger than Zhao Letian. At least, he understands the principle that the overly rigid is easily broken, while Zhao Letian does not. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been defeated by you that day," Liu Fei in Shentu Yu's embrace said indifferently, her expression cool, emitting the aura of an untainted fairy.
"What, Feifei? You couldn't possibly be sympathizing with Zhao Letian, could you??" Shentu Yu frowned and said displeasedly.
"Rest assured, from the day I decided to be with you, I've completely drawn the line with Zhao Letian. Whether he lives or dies, I don't care at all. What I care about is whether you will keep your promise in the future, to make me the mistress of Qingzhou City and to have our Liu Family and your Shentu Family coexist in Qingzhou City," Liu Fei said calmly, her tone very indifferent.
"Heh, don't worry about that. Once our two families join forces to eliminate the Zhao Family and Sun Family, I will definitely fulfill my promise," Shentu Yu said with a wicked smile, filled with confidence.
At the same time, on the outskirts of Huangquan Island, Zhao Letian finally steered his small boat, leisurely making his way over.
By this time, Huangquan Island was already surrounded inside and out, completely sealed off. Even the skies were filled with Inner Sect disciples of the True Martial Realm riding on Spiritual Artifacts.
"Excuse me, could you please let me through?" Zhao Letian discovered he simply couldn't squeeze through and could only smile helplessly, speaking to the disciples on the boat ahead.
"Make way? Hah! I wish the people in front could make way for me. Go ahead and ask them if they will. If it was possible to squeeze through, who would want to stay here without even a glimpse of a ghost shadow?" The person in front spoke without turning his head, standing on tiptoes and peering inside.
"I need to enter and fight Luo Hao," Zhao Letian said with a wry smile.
"Shh! Shh! Shh! ..."
Although Zhao Letian's voice wasn't loud, as soon as he finished speaking, people in front turned their heads to look back. They were already impatiently waiting, and now they were curious to see who was so important that they had to wait until now.
"Zhao Letian?"
"Wasn't he thrown into the lake by Young Master Shentu to feed the fish? How is he still alive? And he wants to fight Luo Hao to the death?"
"The former number one talent of the Outer Sect and the current number one talent dueling? Interesting, I wonder which of the two is truly the top figure of the Outer Sect!"
After a moment of stunned silence, the crowd began to discuss excitedly.
"He's actually not dead?" Shentu Yu and Liu Fei frowned almost at the same time, both looking rather displeased. The last people in the Galaxy Sect who wanted to see Zhao Letian still alive were them.
"It's Brother Letian who's going to fight Luo Hao? But has his cultivation level recovered?" In the crowd, the cute girl Liu Wei, dressed in a pink dress, showed a face full of joy upon seeing Zhao Letian but soon became worried. She had seen Luo Hao's formidable strength just before and knew that even Zhao Letian at his peak was no match for him.
"This guy wants to challenge Luo Hao? Can he win?" In the crowd, the Galaxy Five Tigers showed expectant eyes. They had not yet decided whether to follow Zhao Letian because they were unsure if Zhao Letian was strong enough or worth following. If Zhao Letian could defeat a strong opponent like Luo Hao, it might just help them make up their minds.
After discovering that Zhao Letian was Luo Hao's opponent, the crowd consciously cleared a path, allowing Zhao Letian's small boat to sail in.
"Whoosh!"
Arriving alongside Huangquan Island, Zhao Letian leapt up and landed on the massive platform. He first raised his head and looked indifferently at Shentu Yu and Liu Fei in the air, then withdrew his gaze and calmly faced Luo Hao.
Shentu Yu and Liu Fei were people he would deal with sooner or later, but today his target was only one person—Luo Hao.
"Zhao Letian, I've said that I won't kill you. But, you must show all your strength and be utterly convinced of your defeat; otherwise, I will still slay you," Luo Hao declared as he drew the giant blade slung across his back, over a man tall, his True Essence Power surging around his body. His eyes were filled with domineering pride, extremely confident, seeming to believe his victory was inevitable.
The onlookers murmured to themselves, no wonder Luo Hao possessed strength far beyond the ordinary Inner Sect Disciples. Just this kind of 'none but me' domineering confidence was not something ordinary people had.
"True Essence Power? So you really are on the verge of breaking through to the True Martial Realm," sensing the strong True Yuan emanating from Luo Hao, Zhao Letian's expression changed slightly, and he reached out to draw out his blue Spiritual Weapon Longsword, "When I arrived, I just so happened to see you defeating those two Inner Sect Disciples. It is indeed very strong but, if that's all of your strength, then, to defeat you, one sword strike is enough!"
Arrogant! Arrogant! Arrogant!
People thought Luo Hao was already arrogant enough, but unexpectedly, there's always someone more so, and Zhao Letian turned out to be even more boundlessly arrogant.
