Liu Qing

The Buddha's palm instantly slammed down. It was like a towering mountain that was about to drown Liu Xiang.

When the crowd in the square saw this scene, their hearts thumped. They knew that Liu Xiang was going to lose this time. Moreover, the Buddha's palm was so terrifying. Liu Xiang did not dodge or even resist. She would probably end up in an extremely miserable state.

"Miss Liu Xiang!"

Du Tao and the rest were shocked. However, no one dared to step forward. They could also feel the terror of the Buddha's palm that was descending from the sky. It was not something that they could contend against. Although they were worried about Liu Xiang's safety, they did not dare to take their own lives lightly.

Boom!

The Buddha's palm finally landed. When it completely covered Liu Xiang's body, a figure that was emitting a sharp aura had unknowingly appeared in front of Liu Xiang.

The person's eyes were indifferent. He pushed his hands forward and a violent energy burst out. His black hair stood on end and the bones in his body crackled like beans. Then, the terrifying Buddha's palm seemed to have stopped time and stopped in mid-air.

"Break!"

A cold voice sounded. Then, the huge Buddha's palm started to squirm. Then, a supreme and terrifying energy burst out. With a rumble, the Buddha's palm exploded into countless golden lights.

Deng Deng Deng!

Zhuowen's pupils shrank. He retreated dozens of steps in the air. His eyes were solemn as he stared at the figure that was blocking in front of Liu Xiang.

This person was very strong. The pressure that he gave off was extremely terrifying. The Buddha's palm that was like a rainbow was instantly shattered into countless pieces under this person's aura.

"Who are you?

Why are you interfering in my battle with Liu Xiang? "After stabilizing his body, Zhuowen stared at the figure and said coldly.

This person was slightly older than Liu Xiang. He had a sturdy body, black hair, and black eyes. His eyes were like the moon and constantly emitted a bright light that could not be looked at directly. Especially the aura that he emitted. It was as if there was a terrifying ancient beast hidden in his body.

"My name is Liu Qing. Liu Xiang is my sister!

You went too far with that attack just now.

If my sister was hit directly, even if she didn't die, she would be seriously injured. Do you want to kill her? "

Liu Qing lifted his head slightly. His eyes were firmly fixed on Zhuowen's body as a seemingly solid murderous intent erupted from him. He, Liu Qing, was coincidentally training in the Cultivation Tower and had just exited when he heard that Liu Xiang was planning to duel with the top ranked new student.

Therefore, Liu Qing held the attitude of a spectator as he blended into the crowd to watch the showdown. Although he had heard of Zhuowen's name, he was not too concerned about it. After all, he was very clear about Liu Xiang's strength. It was definitely not something a new student could contend against.

However, the more Liu Qing watched, the more surprised he became. Zhuowen's combat strength was not ordinary. Not only did he break through Liu Xiang's many attacks, but even the Buddha's Palm that he released in the end made him feel a little afraid.

Liu Xiang's defeat was something he had not expected, especially when he saw that Liu Xiang had been bewitched by the Buddha's eyes and had given up all resistance. Liu Qing naturally could not bear to watch any longer and directly blocked the Buddha's palm.

"Brother!"

At this moment, Liu Xiang had also woken up. Soon after, she recalled the scene from before. All the hairs on her body involuntarily stood up as cold sweat covered her body. She knew that if Liu Qing had not intervened, her fate would definitely not be optimistic.

"How did Zhuowen become so strong all of a sudden?"

Liu Xiang's beautiful eyes looked through Liu Qing's back and saw the angry young man in front of her. Her face was filled with a complicated expression.

The surrounding crowd also began to whisper as their gazes landed on Liu Qing. They did not expect that Liu Qing would also be in the square and that he would intervene at the last moment.

Liu Qing's name was very well-known in the Outer Academy. He was known as the third pavilion master of the Emperor Pavilion and was also a genius on the Heavenly Sovereign List. His combat strength was extremely terrifying and he was a powerful existence that many students looked up to.

Of course, the scene of Zhuo Wen forcefully defeating Liu Xiang was also beyond everyone's expectations. Who would have thought that the combat strength of a new student would be so terrifying? The early Empyrean Liu Xiang was actually defeated by him. It had to be known that Liu Xiang was not an ordinary early Empyrean martial artist, but a monstrous genius that had been tempered by the Cultivation Pagoda for a long time.

Although Zhuo Wen had also entered the Cultivation Tower to temper himself, he had only tempered himself for a month. Moreover, Zhuo Wen's cultivation was only at the peak of the Supreme-Being realm. Under the harsh conditions of a low cultivation realm and short tempering time, Liu Xiang still lost to Zhuo Wen.

Everyone knew that Zhuowen's talent far surpassed Liu Xiang's. If Zhuowen matured, it would not be a problem for him to enter the Outer Academy's Heavenly Sovereign List.

Zhuowen frowned when he felt the dense killing intent in Liu Qing's eyes. He said, "Injuries are unavoidable in a spar!

Although that palm was powerful, it was not enough to take Liu Xiang's life. Why are you questioning me like this? "

"What do I mean?

Don't you want to pay a price for injuring my sister? "Liu Qing stomped his foot and a terrifying aura surged out. A murderous intent firmly locked onto Zhuowen.

"The root cause of this battle was Liu Xiang's. Now that Liu Xiang has been defeated, as her brother, you intend to stand up for her and bully a mere freshman like me. Don't you feel ashamed?" Zhuowen's voice suddenly turned cold.

Liu Qing frowned. Zhuowen's words were not without reason. However, Liu Xiang's defeat just now made Liu Qing's heart burn with anger. He did not want to let it go just like that.

"Brother Liu Qing!

You are the Third Pavilion Master of the Emperor Pavilion. Isn't it inappropriate for you to personally bully a freshman?

Moreover, isn't Liu Xiang completely fine?

Don't tell me you want to lower yourself to bully a freshman in front of everyone? "

Cheng Dong suddenly spoke. He slowly walked in front of Zhuowen with a refined smile on his face as he stared indifferently at Liu Qing.

"Cheng Dong?

Don't tell me your Fragrant Ink Pavilion wants to reach out to my Emperor Pavilion?

Do I need you to interfere in my matters? "Liu Qing frowned slightly and said somewhat impolitely.

"It's not me who wants to interfere. It's our Fragrant Ink Pavilion's First Master who wants to interfere. This is the First Master's token!

If you insist on touching Zhuowen, the First Master may rush over immediately. At that time, you can do as you see fit! "

Cheng Dong shook his head and said indifferently as he took out a jade talisman from his bosom.

Looking at the jade talisman in Cheng Dong's hand, Liu Qing's gaze darkened. He said in surprise, "Your Fragrant Ink Pavilion's First Master has also come out?

This Zhuowen has only been in the Outer Court for a month, right?

Moreover, he has been staying in the Cultivation Pagoda for the past month. How is he related to your Fragrant Ink Pavilion's First Master? "

Cheng Dong shook his head and said, "I don't know either. In fact, I came to the Cultivation Pagoda to look for junior Zhuowen because of the First Master's orders. Therefore, Liu Qing, if you ignore the First Master and attack Zhuowen now, you will have to bear the consequences."

Liu Qing's frown deepened. In the end, he coldly snorted and said, "Since that's the case, I'll give the First Master some face first. However, if I see this kid being arrogant again in the future, your Fragrant Ink Pavilion can no longer protect him."

After saying that, Liu Qing left the square with Liu Xiang and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

After Liu Qing left, Mo Lingtian, Jia Nan, and the other three walked out from the crowd and came to Zhuowen's side.

"Brother Zhuo!

You've become stronger again. Looks like the results of this month's tempering are pretty good. Even Liu Xiang is no longer your opponent. "Mo Lingtian looked at Zhuowen with some envy.

In the previous battle, Zhuowen's strength was indeed much stronger than before. Although Mo Lingtian had gained a lot in the Cultivation Pagoda, after seeing the strength that Zhuowen had displayed, the sharpness in his heart was gradually worn away.

"The four of you have also gained a lot!"

Looking at Mo Lingtian and the other three, Zhuowen's eyes were filled with a trace of surprise. At this moment, Mo Lingtian's cultivation had already broken through to the initial Golden Sovereign stage, while Jia Nan and Xuan Xing had both reached the peak of the Xuanzun Realm. As for Gatha, she had attracted Zhuowen's attention.

This was because Gatha's cultivation had actually reached the initial stage of the Sovereign stage. Back then, Gatha's cultivation should have been the same as Jia Nan's, the middle stage of the Xuanzun Realm. Now, after the tempering of the Cultivation Pagoda, she had actually risen by three levels and was only at the initial stage of the Sovereign stage. This cultivation speed was truly terrifying.

"As expected of the genius who possesses the Heaven's Wrath Armored Spirit. Even I feel a little ashamed of this cultivation speed!"

Looking at Gatha's current state, Zhuowen felt a trace of bitterness in his heart. He had painstakingly cultivated on the tenth level for an entire month and had only risen by one level. On the other hand, Gatha had cultivated on the first level for an entire month and had actually jumped by three levels. This was the difference in talent!

Although Zhuowen possessed a powerful Dragon Soul, Xiao Hei did not have any effect on increasing one's aptitude. Other than occasionally tricking him a few times, there did not seem to be any other benefits.

Thinking about the benefits of the Heaven's Wrath Armored Spirit, Zhuowen was also rather envious. However, he also knew that this Armored Spirit was innate. One still had to rely on oneself to walk the path of martial arts step by step.

After chatting with Mo Lingtian and the other three for a while, Zhuowen turned to look at Cheng Dong and asked curiously, "Senior Cheng Dong, who is the First Master of your Fragrant Ink Pavilion?

I don't seem to have any relationship with your Fragrant Ink Pavilion. Why is your First Master protecting me? "

Cheng Dong shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "It's no use even if you ask me because I also find it strange!

Junior Zhuowen, since the First Master thinks so highly of you, why don't you join my Fragrant Ink Pavilion?

Our Fragrant Ink Pavilion's power is not the slightest bit weaker than the Emperor Pavilion. "

Zhuowen was startled and revealed a hesitant expression. Actually, when he had just entered, he had already heard of this organization called the Emperor Pavilion. After that, because of Cheng Dong, he also knew that there was a Fragrant Ink Pavilion in the outer court.

However, because Zhuowen had just entered the outer court not long ago, he really did not know anything about these organizations and powers.

"Senior Cheng Dong, can you introduce me to the powers in the outer court?

Also, what is that so-called Heavenly Venerable Leaderboard? "Zhuowen did not directly answer, but asked instead.

Cheng Dong nodded. He had already expected that Zhuowen would not agree immediately. Moreover, he was also prepared to explain these things to Zhuowen. Now that Zhuowen asked first, he naturally would not beat around the bush.
