"Come at me!"


After a cold statement, Ling Xian pointed his Halberd at everyone as his hair tussled in the wind. Like an undefeatable G.o.d of Warrior, he stood his ground and peered down onto everyone.


He had invited multiple powerhouses to fight him at once. How lofty was this?


To be pointing the Halberd at everyone and be as imposing as he was now. How dominating was this?


Everyone frowned as they stared at the G.o.d-like silhouette. They felt unsettled. However, none of them were weak and they were all confident about their abilities. If they weren"t, who would dare to challenge Ling Xian?


Thus, despite Ling Xian"s aggression, n.o.body here feared.


"Alright, let me teach you a lesson!"


A stocky man wearing black stepped onto the battle ring as terrifying Qi roared out of him and shook the entire area. It was obvious that his capabilities were no joke.


"A mere completion levelled cultivator of the intermediate stage dare to challenge me?"


After glancing at this man, Ling Xian"s right arm slowly lifted. The Halberd of the Divine Warrior exploded with heavenly light that caused a wave of energy to roll out across the stage!


Against a group of completion levelled cultivators, he realized that the best way to do this is to fight on violently and aggressively. Thus, he moved without second thoughts or considerations!


"Not good!"


Against the terrifying vibrations, the stocky man"s expression changed. Even though he felt Ling Xian"s Qi a while ago, Qi was just Qi. Only after Ling Xian made his move did this man realize something.


With his abilities, he had no right to fight against Ling Xian.


However, since the man was standing on stage, then he had no way out. He formed a hand seal and called out to his strongest technique.


HOOMMM!


After an earth splitting rumble, the wobbling vibration landed on the stocky man.


Despite all the effort this man put into defending, he still puked out a mouthful of blood.


"Beat it now."


As the stocky man puked, Ling Xian appeared before him in a split second. He then rose his right leg high and swung it at him like a dragon sw.a.n.g its tail.


Bang!


Immediately, this man was sent out flying and he laid on the ground puking out more blood.


Then, everyone heard an arrogant statement that echoed throughout the battle ground.


"Next."


On the battle ring, Ling Xian held onto his Halberd as his black hair tussled in the wind like a demon.


"This person… is strong!"


Everyone"s expression changed as they looked at Ling Xian then looked at the stocky man on the ground. Their faces were filled with shock.


They were all very aware of the stocky man"s reputation and abilities. He was one of the best in the intermediate stage of the completion level. Yet before Ling Xian, he couldn"t even last one move. How unbelievable was this?


However, shock was just shock. Everyone came with the intention of killing Ling Xian. Why would they retreat now because of what happened?


In the next second, a man wearing white hopped onto the battle ring. Terrifying Qi poured out and headed for Ling Xian.


Pity though, with Ling Xian"s capabilities now, those of the intermediate stage were n.o.bodies. Unless they were undefeatable completion, they had no abilities to block out even one attack of his!


"You need to beat it as well."


The Halberd of the Divine Warrior was unleas.h.i.+ng endless amount of energy. Especially in the palm of Ling Xian, it was unstoppable. After three reb.u.t.tals against the man in white, the Halberd knocked out the man.


Instantly, the entire area silenced.


Wiping out one person could be categorized as luck. But wiping out two? This could not be explained by luck. It was capabilities!


This was enough to prove one thing – Ling Xian"s capabilities. He had far surpa.s.sed the intermediate stage of the completion level. He was at the advanced stage!


Everyone here realized this and their eyes were full of shock.


In the cultivation community, the different stages are very stringent. Most people express their level of cultivation through their battling capabilities. In the completion level, especially, it is nearly impossible to surpa.s.s the stage one is in. But Ling Xian here has expressed capabilities far above the intermediate stage. This caused great astonishment among the crowd.


Especially those in the intermediate stage of the completion level, they all wryly chuckled, knowing that they had lost. If they stepped out now, they would be asking for humiliation.


Thus, everyone in the intermediate stage paid respect to Ling Xian and stepped back a few steps, indicating that they no longer planned on challenging him.


"Hmmph, a group of useless trash."


An elderly said with a dark expression. His words were not warm.


Hearing this, all those who had given up frowned. They were somewhat mad. However, when they realized who spoke, their anger turned into horror.


This was because this person was of the advanced stage, and because this person was well known.


"It"s the Turtle Snake Elder! Didn"t he die? Why is he here?"


"During the war that year, he killed two completion levelled cultivators of the advanced stage by himself. He then disappeared. I cannot believe he would be here today."


"This will be fun to watch. The Turtle Snake Elder is very capable. Ling Xian will have a taste of pain."


After seeing the elder, everyone spoke loudly and revealed how terrified they were of him.


"Turtle Snake Elder?"


Ling Xian frowned. He hadn"t heard of this man"s name. But based on everyone"s reaction, his capabilities were probably highly terrifying. After he used his Qi to inspect this elderly, his belief was confirmed.


Advanced stage!


"Hehe, young man, you really are strong. Enough to be named an unparalleled Heaven"s Favorite."


The Turtle Snake Elder slowly strolled onto the ring. The way he looked at Ling Xian was full of greed, "Sadly, you are unlucky and encountered me."


"That may not be the case. Perhaps you are the unlucky one to have run into me." Ling Xian revealed a cold smile. The Halberd flickered with dark light as killer"s intent flowed out of the blade.


"It"s been a while since I"ve seen such an arrogant man. Then let me see if you have the right to be so arrogant!"


The Turtle Snake Elder bellowed as he unleashed Qi of the advanced stage. In that moment, it was like ancient beasts were being awakened!


"I can"t dodge!"


Ling Xian frowned, knowing that his Halberd alone will not be able to stop this man"s attack. Thus, he blinked and the Halberd immediately transformed.


Ding….


An earthquake was created alongside the sound of the zither. Then, an ancient zither materialized before everyone"s eyes. Instantly, heaven defying amount of energy soared!


"Heavenly music… the Crouching Dragon!"


Without hesitation, Ling Xian skipped the Petrifying Wind Waves song and went right to the Song of the Crouching Dragon. What he wanted was to petrify everyone and defeat the Turtle Snake Elder!


This song did not disappoint him. As he plucked the strings of the Zither, terrifying music howled and turned into stern movements that swept all enemies before him!


Ding… ding…


The sound of the zither was like the clinking between blades. It transcended the clouds and the heavens. The Song of the Crouching Dragon appeared for the first time in Yunzhou and demonstrated undefeatable amount of power!


In that instant, the Turtle Snake Elder had a change of expression. He quickly summoned a snake and a turtle as s.h.i.+elds and clashed them against the sound of the Zither!


However, the Song of the Couching Dragon was far too terrifying. As powerful as the elder was, he could not defend against this song. After holding for a few seconds, his s.h.i.+eld cracked into pieces.


The Elder spewed out a mouthful of blood. Like a stringless kite, he flung out for meters.


Bang!


The moment he landed, the entire area silenced.


It was as if even heaven and earth fell into dead silence at this very second.
