Master Kuraki
"Wang Meng is injured?"
Everyone stared in disbelief at the dark red blood dripping from Wang Meng's right fist. Many people rubbed their eyes. When they confirmed that what they saw was not an illusion, the shock on their faces became even more intense.
They didn't expect Zhuowen, who was only at the Soul Transformation Realm, to be able to injure Wang Meng, who was at the Yin Void Realm. Although Wang Meng's right fist only had a superficial wound, the gap between their cultivations was like a chasm. It was already an amazing fact that Zhuowen could injure a warrior of the Yin Void Realm with his Soul Transformation Realm cultivation.
"How did this guy do it?"
Chen Tong 'er, whose face was originally filled with ridicule, was also startled at this moment. The playful smile on her face also froze as she looked at the young figure in the arena with a stunned expression.
When Wang Zheng, whose eyes were filled with a dark and stern expression, saw the bloodstains on Wang Meng's hand, he involuntarily became absent-minded. Clearly, he did not expect that his big brother, whom he had always worshipped, would actually be injured by a mere Zhuo Wen. This kind of impact caused Wang Zheng to be momentarily stunned.
Compared to the shock of the bystanders, the Zhuo Family suddenly erupted into cheers. Then, the younger generation of the Zhuo Family looked at the young figure in the middle of the field with adoration. They couldn't help but shout the young figure's name.
Zhuowen's actions were clearly to protect the reputation of the Zhuo Family. Furthermore, the terrifying strength he had displayed had also caused the younger members of the Zhuo Family to feel a strange sense of belonging towards this young man.
"Good!
Zhuowen, you really surprised me. You were actually able to break through my defense and injure me.
However, you won't get lucky a second time. This time, I won't underestimate you. I will use all my strength to cripple you. "
Looking at the bloodstains on his fist, Wang Meng's gaze turned even colder. The corners of his mouth curled up into a sinister smile. Following which, an intense chill erupted from his body, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet.
At this moment, Zhuowen's gaze had also turned extremely solemn. During the previous exchange, Zhuowen was at an absolute disadvantage. Moreover, Zhuowen could sense that Wang Meng's strength was even greater than Liu Yuan's. Wang Meng actually had the qualifications to condense the Void Armor.
"Zhuowen, die!"
Wang Meng's legs suddenly bounced, and an endless amount of cold yin energy erupted from his body. Then, the cold yin energy transformed into a bone-chilling cold current, and Wang Meng charged at Zhuo Wen with the cold current in tow.
Feeling the ferocious power of the cold current that Wang Meng had released, many people's expressions changed drastically. The power that Wang Meng was currently displaying was much stronger than before.
Quite a number of people's gazes gathered on the tall and straight young figure. They knew that Wang Meng's ordinary punch had already caused this figure to appear somewhat miserable. They wondered if this figure would be able to successfully receive the terrifying destructive power of this all-out attack.
Taking a deep breath, Zhuowen's gaze turned solemn as he looked at the cold current that was shooting towards him. He knew that he had to go all out at this moment. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to withstand Wang Meng's attack.
Just as Zhuowen was about to use all of his trump cards, Zhuowen suddenly felt a terrifying fluctuation rushing towards him from not far away. Then, Zhuowen was shocked to discover that a golden stone platform that was several feet in size had appeared not far above him.
The golden stone platform was like a small mountain in front of Zhuowen. Then, Wang Meng's extremely frightening cold current completely poured onto the golden stone platform. However, what shocked Zhuowen was that the cold current that even Zhuowen himself didn't have confidence in was easily blocked by the golden stone platform.
"Who is it?
How dare you obstruct our Wang Clan's business? "
The corners of Wang Meng's eyes twitched when he saw that his attack had been completely blocked. His gaze also turned gloomy.
"Humph!
What a great Wang Clan. Didn't your parents tell you that fighting is prohibited in the trade fair?
If it weren't for the fact that you are all of the younger generation, I don't care if you are from the Wang Clan or the Chen Clan.
A somewhat fiery voice sounded out. Then, everyone's gaze converged on the figure at the source of the voice. It was a rather well-built old man with white hair at his temples. However, what surprised everyone was that the old man's face was rosy and extremely elastic like a child's.
"Grandmaster Cang Mu?
I didn't think that the commotion here would even draw out Grandmaster Cang Mu. "
"Grandmaster Cang Mu is a highly respected Arcana Master. Even the city lord doesn't dare to slight him. However, Grandmaster Cang Mu usually doesn't care about the affairs of the trade fair. It's a little strange that he has personally come out today."
Numerous discussions also sounded out of nowhere. From these discussions, Zhuo Wen also knew that the identity of this white-haired, youthful looking old man who had just appeared should not be ordinary.
"Zhuowen, Grandmaster Cang Mu is the only Arcana Master in our Rattan Armor City. His status is extremely respected. Even the city lord, Gu Yue Tian, doesn't dare to slight him in the slightest when he sees him.
The trade fair was specially built by the city lord's residence for Grandmaster Cang Mu. "
As if she could see the confusion on Zhuowen's face, Zhuo Meixue dutifully began to introduce Grandmaster Cang Mu's background to Zhuowen.
"Arcana Master?"
Zhuowen was stunned. Then, his gaze towards the old man in front of him had a different charm. One must know that in the Heavenly Armor Continent, Arcana Masters were a symbol of status and nobility. Their status was extremely high.
The main reason why Arcana Masters had such a high status was because Arcana Masters had the ability to create special Origin Crystals and refine Origin Formations.
Special Origin Crystals had all sorts of uses. For example, a high grade Attack Origin Crystal could rival a powerful warrior's full strength attack. A high grade Defense Origin Crystal could block a powerful warrior's attack. Apart from these, there were also other powerful Origin Crystals.
If a weak person had a powerful Origin Crystal, they could rely on the power of the Origin Crystal to not fear any strong person. Of course, the more powerful the Origin Crystal, the higher its value. If one didn't have enough resources, they wouldn't be able to afford these Origin Crystals.
The reason why Arcana Masters were so respected was ultimately because of their rarity. This was because the conditions to become an Arcana Master were extremely harsh. Out of ten thousand people, there might not even be one who had the talent to become an Arcana Master. It was precisely because of their rarity that the status of Arcana Masters was infinitely elevated.
"So it's Grandmaster Cang Mu. Please forgive me for offending you earlier."
Looking at the white-haired old man in front of him, Wang Meng's pupils couldn't help but shrink. Then, he smiled and cupped his hands together, but a trace of sweat appeared on his face.
After all, even the patriarch of the Wang Clan didn't dare to slight this old man in front of him. Wang Meng was only a junior of the Wang Clan, so he naturally didn't dare to be impudent in front of such a person.
Grandmaster Cang Mu didn't seem to notice Wang Meng at all. Instead, he stared straight at Zhuowen. Under Grandmaster Cang Mu's gaze, Zhuowen felt a little uncomfortable.
"Grandmaster Cang Mu, my father has always wanted to invite Grandmaster to a gathering in the clan. Would Grandmaster Cang Mu do me the honor of visiting our Wang Clan?"
Wang Meng no longer had his initial arrogance and ruthlessness. Instead, he was as respectful as a newborn calf, as if he was afraid that he would do something wrong.
Seeing Wang Meng's change in attitude, the surrounding people didn't reveal any strange expressions. This was because Wang Meng was treating a respected Arcana Master. Even if it were someone else, their attitude would be even more flattering than Wang Meng's.
"Wang Clan?
I'm not interested. Also, tell your old man to stop worrying. If he wants me to refine a grade 8 crystal for him, he will have to pay the corresponding price. Otherwise, there's nothing to talk about. "Grandmaster Cang Mu impatiently waved his hand and said irritably.
Grandmaster Cang Mu's impatient attitude didn't cause the hot-tempered Wang Meng to reveal any strange expression. Instead, he revealed an even more respectful expression. He bowed and said, "Wang Meng will convey Grandmaster's words. I only hope that Grandmaster will reconsider the matter from last time."
"Are you done?
If you're done, then scram. Don't bother me. "
Grandmaster Cang Mu glared at Wang Meng with a very bad attitude. However, Grandmaster Cang Mu's bad attitude didn't make Wang Meng angry at all. Instead, it made Wang Meng laugh.
Zhuowen was a little surprised as he looked at Wang Meng, who wasn't angry at all. He didn't expect the hot-tempered Wang Meng to be so restrained in front of Grandmaster Cang Mu.
After Grandmaster Cang Mu finished speaking, he ignored Wang Meng, who was laughing at the side. Instead, he took a step forward and stood in front of Zhuowen. A pair of shrewd eyes began to size up Zhuowen, and a trace of hesitation appeared between his eyebrows.
While Grandmaster Cang Mu was sizing up Zhuowen, Zhuowen could feel a strange energy constantly scanning his body, as if it was searching for something.
Although Zhuowen was a little angry at Grandmaster Cang Mu's probing, he didn't dare to show it. This was because he could feel an extremely powerful energy from Grandmaster Cang Mu's body. This energy was even stronger than his grandfather, Zhuo Xiangding.
Grandmaster Cang Mu's actions also attracted the attention of everyone present. When they saw Grandmaster Cang Mu sizing up Zhuowen, everyone's eyes revealed a trace of astonishment.
When Wang Meng, who had been deliberately trying to curry favor with Grandmaster Cang Mu, saw that Grandmaster Cang Mu was actually interested in Zhuowen, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Kid, the fluctuation of your soul is very strange. This is the first time I've seen something like this. Moreover, your mental strength is much stronger than ordinary people. You have a trace of the potential to become an arcanist. I wonder if you're willing to take the mental strength test."
"If you pass the mental strength test, this old man can accept you as a disciple.
Even if you don't pass the test, this old man will still give you a second-grade crystal as compensation. What do you think? "
Grandmaster Cang Mu rubbed his hands and looked at the young man in front of him with a hopeful gaze. One must know that people with the potential to become an arcanist were one in a million. Now that he finally met one, he naturally wouldn't let it go so easily.
