Chapter 178 Chapter 178 Watermelon
"Come back here, you stupid stinking fish! You\'ll get us all punished with your audacity!" A long time Inner Court Disciple chastised the bold man that wanted a piece of our bored gamer.
The rule of their teacher, Elder Hong Tian, has always been absolute in more ways than one. Unity and synchronicity or suffer!
It was of course in this very reason that this pretty concerned Inner Disciples has feared for the worst of all outcomes at this time.
Alas, what happened next seemed to be exactly like a scene from the grave nightmares.
"You know better than to interrupt me in front of my visitors, young man."
Elder Hong Tian dropped the tea cup that she was holding down the table at her side and the bright sunny skies appeared to lose a little bit of their magnificence overhead.
This clearly mirrored the dark emotions inhibited by the current master of the Outer Disciples Court and it had only brought a promise of doom and nothing more.
"Suicidal maniac! If you don\'t die today, i will make sure that you will have a not so pleasant stay in this place!"
The same nameless Inner Disciple grumbled and the threat behind it was unmistakable indeed. But instead of being alarmed, this bold soul has stood even straighter than the fastest arrows.
It could be seen from this picture alone that this newly ascended Inner Disciple was truly determined to see the end of his wish.
"Please forgive my insolence, Teacher! But I have a blood feud to make right! I, Long Tian, always pays my grievances with a thousand fold in return!"
The speaker was of course none other than Long Tian himself. This brave handsome man really treated those parts in his Thunder Strike Faction as more than allies and friends.
They were akin to family to him already. This was why he had to do this in the first place. And besides the benefits of time and chance was certainly against Long Tian at this time.
"I value your courage, young man. And because we share the same first name, I will forgive you this one time. Go back and train hard.
Forget any hopes of getting revenge from your fallen family. This road will only bring you further death and no peace."
Elder Hong Tian threw one last rope of saving grace unto the folly of her student.
It took guts to speak up in this xianxia world and without strength, this action would certainly not end well for this Inner Disciple Long Tian.
The Inner Court Head looked down below and measured the figure of the valiant young man with an appreciative gaze of hers.
Different from the enclosed and private chambers of Elder Chang Tu\'s Training Halls, Elder Hong Tian has chosen to open the halls so that she could properly monitor the progress of each of her students.
Other than that, this setup would also give her easy access in order to punish those who were doing badly in their training.
Ten breaths of silence passed and upon the next beat, Long Tian finally delivered his response.
"I am determined to continue, Teacher. Please let me do it!" Long Tian shouted the words out and looked at the object of his ire, Clark Colter.
"I accept." Our bored gamer replied before Elder Hong Tian could say another word altogether. In fact, this young man named Long Tian has all but interested Clark in full.
"Young Master Clark, I don\'t think that there is any reason for you to act. Let me handle this as soon as possible."
Hong Tian retained her calm outside but the same could not be said to the real feelings that she had deep within her soul.
Although it was shocking to see how a 4th Stage of Mortal Shedding Realm could cultivate to the peak of the same realm in just the span of mere days but cultivation attainments did not equal mastery in combat prowess.
Elder Hong Tian was already thinking about defeat and should this come to pass upon a destined True Immortal of the Demonic Sword Sect, there was a great chance that Young Master Clark would gain nothing but heart demons at this early stage of his path.
This simply cannot be allowed to happen!
"Drag him down!" Elder Hong Tian muttered in a soft voice and soon thereafter, more than a dozen shadows flickered on the scene and they had only one objective in mind. KILL!
It was also very surprising to see that every single one of these people was already in the Golden Core Realm.
Elder Hong Tian really displayed a sizable portion of her influence at this time.
Alas, before a fatal blow could land upon the solitary target in Long Tian, a calm voice rang at the center of them all.
"Are you not giving me any face, Elder Hong Tian? Is that it?" Clark raised a questioning brow in consequence. Just a half breath later and...
"BOOM!" Dust exploded on the scene and some of the disciples nearby were violently thrown aside like insignificant twigs amidst the onslaught of a raging typhoon.
One could only imagine the fate of Long Tian in the end.
"Please do as you wish, Young Master Clark." Elder Hong Tian replied and she could only sigh deeply at this point.
This wise Elder would be a fool if she would antagonize a Supreme Talent like Young Master Clark. The repercussions would be unimaginable!
Perhaps one of the most possible ones was Young Master Clark leaving the Demonic Sword Sect behind and defecting to some other powers in the continent.
The gods above knew that there would be no place that would not take a once in an era prodigy like our very own bored gamer.
At this time, Elder Hong Tian has no choice but to compromise with her in the losing side of the deal.
When the smoke cleared in the epicenter of chaos, everyone was shocked to see that the bold Long Tian was still in one piece and in the pink of health.
And the batch of Golden Core Experts were nowhere to be seen. It was quite easy to guess that Elder Hong Tian has indeed recalled her loyal minions in time.
"You are a good product of this sect, Elder Hong Tian. The Demonic Sword Sect is absolutely lucky to have you in their ranks."
Clark gave some just praise around and his words cannot be truer than the present. Elder Hong Tian was a typical faithful Senior that loved her sect more than she did her own life and values.
"I don\'t deserve your kind words, Young Master Clark. But thank you. You bring honor in this old lady\'s name."
Elder Hong Tian smiled and without ado, took her tea cup once more to sip at its contents.
Since there was nothing she could do at the moment, all that was left was to witness how things would unfold before her eyes from now on.
"You are very smart, Long Tian. And maybe a bit foolish also at the same time." Clark said as he began to confront his would be challenger.
All thoughts of training and formation mastery were forgotten because most of the thousands in attendance provided ample space for these two young men to battle it out at the center of the Training Field.
"That is your opinion in which I am not interested in listening. What I care about is for you to pay for your crimes, Legacy Disciple Clark Colter!" Long Tian spat with hate.
They were probably standing no more than 20 meters from each other right now as the distance was eaten pretty easily with how fast our bored gamer bridged them in style.
He definitely loved to leave behind afterimages along the way and it has indeed bedazzled some of his naive viewers.
"What kind of movement technique is that?"
"It looks like Young Master Clark has a hundred stationary images!"
The naked eyes of these Inner Disciples could only judge what can be seen but it was entirely different when someone like Elder Hong Tian perceived such a sight.
\'Young Master Clark has already touched one of the Great Daos?!" This realization stunned the Elder in her seat. But more than that, it has also calmed her down considerably.
"My Demonic Sword Sect will continue to stand strong in this Withered Continent for ten thousand years more!" Elder Hong Tian could not help but give a rare smile in her life.
"You said it yourself. I am a Legacy Disciple of the Demonic Sword Sect. Surely you are not dumb enough to kill me even if i fail to defeat you in battle. Or are you?" Clark asked.
"Let us start. No need for us to waste time matching with words." Long Tian ridiculed.
"Why the rush? Hmmm... Let me tell you instead what I guessed you wanted to achieve from challenging me.
You wanted to use this chance when we are still on the same level of cultivation. Hehehe. Pretty wise indeed!
You must have known that i cultivate like no other and should i get more time in doing so, i would absolutely leave you behind in the smoky trails of my breakthroughs.
Now imagine what realm I would step into if I were to continue cultivating at the same speed for just one year?"
Our bored gamer paused at this time to let her words sink into the minds of his audience.
\'MONSTER!\' And almost everyone who heard him had these exact thoughts at the moment.
"But in the end, I can only say that you are delusional. To sacrifice your life for those already dead. And for what? Honor? Tsk. Tsk.
Those people I killed certainly don\'t deserve this kind of treatment. Like I stated before, you are a foolish foolish man, Long Tian!"
Clark praised his adversary and could only look helplessly at the big green dot over the head of Long Tian. It clearly indicated one thing and a sign for wisdom was sadly never one of those.
Long Tian has lived a fantasy life right from the start. And it was perhaps his choices of friends that had led them to this stage.
"Do you think i\'d believe an outsider like you? There is no need to slander the dead." Long Tian replied in a grave voice and took his sword from his interspatial ring.
It was clear that he did not want to speak further. Alas, our bored gamer still has something more to say.
"Before we fight, let me send you a gift on first meeting. Or maybe you would think otherwise with how naive you are on the reality of your situation."
Clark smiled and looked towards the side. He spotted the figure of a proud elegant man.
"You are Fang Jin, right?" Our bored gamer asked. The man hesitated for a moment or two before he answered.
"Yes, I am Young Master Clark. What can I do for y..."
"PUCHI!" A figure flashed by and one head exploded like a watermelon. In the distance, Lin Che reacted in distaste.
"I thought that there would be no killing in here?" Her words flew by the ears of our avid gamer and Clark could only grin in return.
"You can\'t but I never said that I would do the same."
