Chapter 215 Taunting The Sky Martial Tower
Long Ming's eyes didn't flinch as he merely smiled. He had been expecting this scene from the very beginning. All he didn't know was when it was going to happen.
But now, It's finally happening.
" Fellow Daoist Li, Is it?" Long Ming took out his signature paper fan as he looked at Li Gang. " I wonder why are you making such accusations? Perhaps you lack the sportsmanship and ability to accept your inability."
" Yo-You!" Li Gang gnashed his teeth. " Hmph, It's obvious that you don't have any outstanding cultivation. Not to mention, the ease with which you walked through the rings is simply absurd."
" I am sure you used some sort of treasure related to the Imperial Family. After all, If you have the bloodline of the Qin Family, the difficulty of the trial will be lessened." Li Gang snorted.
" So, Brother Li Gang is accusing the trial system of the Imperial Family?" Long Ming's voice was loud and clear, making everyone listen to it.
" It seems Sky Martial Sect's disciples are very bold. They believe they can't lose, so the problem has to be with the Imperial Family and trial system." Long Ming stood up as he spoke in a righteous voice.
" Is this not trampling the dignity of the Qin Family? Are you trying to tarnish the reputation of the Holy Qilin Empire?"
" Or... Does Sky Martial Sect feel that the Imperial Family doesn't wield its power from the past?"
Not only Li Gang, but the entire arena turned silent when Long Ming's words echoed.
" Hmph! Ignorant brat! What are you talking about?!"
A white beared elder snorted as an imposing aura erupted from his body. Raising his palm, it was like the entire sky was enveloped by it.
However, Long Ming didn't feel any pressure, nor he needed to feel it.
Because he knew, he was absolutely safe in this place.
" Who dares!"
A light and casual remark, but the entire arena quaked with a paramount strength. It was like a heavenly fiend god stamped the ground, making everyone suffocate with its aura.
It was none other than the Emperor of Holy Qilin, who merely raised his finger.
" Elder of the Sky Martial Tower, you have to remember the time and place you do something."
Wei Heizhu reappeared as he clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention towards him.
" Alright, Everyone. The second round has ended with many twists and turns. The first place goes to Four Seasons Valley's Long Ming."
" The second place goes to Han Cheng while the third place goes to Ma Haoyuan of Pearl Island."
Long Ming raised his eyebrows when he heard the name Pearl Island. It's the first big city that comes after crossing the Westward Bay, a part of Thousand Rings Island.
' To think someone came here to participate in this tournament from that far.' Long Ming thought inwardly. However, getting the third place means Man Hoayuan isn't an ordinary cultivator either.
" Those who couldn't reach the third ring shall be disqualified." Wei Heizhu's voice was calm as he spoke.
" Other than that, Those who have passed shall be given a day to rest. The day after tomorrow, the main Battle Tournament shall start."
" Till then, Stay safe and sound."
The crowd cheered as the trial tournament concluded. However, Long Ming didn't waste any time as he rushed to Xia Yuqing.
" Master, You need to help me."
" Huh? What happened?" Xia Yuqing asked with a surprise.
" I am about to face a Minor Physique Tribulation."
" Right now?" Xia Yuqing's expression turned serious as she got up. " It looks like you got quite some benefits from the qilin statue."
" Very well, I will guard you while you face the tribulation. No one would be able to harm you." Xia Yuqing spoke in an assuring voice.
After getting a bit outside from the inner city, Xia Yuqing saw Long Ming sitting cross legged as an azure flame enveloped his body.
' Was it an innate physique? Or he cultivated it?' Xia Yuiqng wondered. But suddenly, something struck in her heart.
' Wait a second! Wasn't Long Ming cultivating the Great Mystic Mountain Physique? How could he cultivate another physique?!!'
As Xia Yuqing almost got a mini heart attack, she saw crimson black clouds rolling in the sky, covering the sky above them.
' A royal grade physique, huh?' Xia Yuqing murmured as she took a few steps back as she watched Long Ming standing up and looking at the sky.
Suddenly, lightning merged with pillars of flames descended, covering Long Ming completely.
