From this, it could be seen to what extent Nie Xiong, this burly fellow, feared him. Even though there were more than ten forces in the Southern Courtyard that were stronger than him, even the overlord of the Southern Courtyard whose strength had reached the great circle of the late ninth level of the Profound Core Stage, he was still considered one of the most outstanding inner court disciples. As long as he broke through to the Profound Moon Realm, he would probably be an overlord of a famous person in the inner court, unlike Li Er, who gave him a strong aura.
The surrounding outer sect disciples were also amazed, exchanging words, ”Another fierce person has come to the outer sect, Nie Xiong is one of the top 100 heroes, ranked # 96. Although our Southern Courtyard's strength is much weaker than the other three academies, Nie Xiong didn't even have the chance to attack before he was directly suppressed.”
A few outer sect disciples who were observing from the sidelines said, ”Looks like another fierce person on the Hero Ranking has appeared in our Southern Courtyard. It seems like this news has grown wings and spread throughout the entire Southern Courtyard in a short period of time.”
At this moment, a handsome youth, thin and weak, was sitting on a chair in the courtyard, listening to his subordinate's description of the battle between Li Er and Nie Xiong. Facing Li Er's crushing attack, Nie Xiong was suppressed to the ground without being able to resist. When he heard his subordinate's report, the man stood up and asked, ”Did you investigate this person's background?”
He only knew that a month ago, Deacon Lu had brought this person to the Southern Courtyard. His name was Li Er, and he was sixteen or seventeen years old; he had only been here for four or five days, and had already brought three people from the Southern Courtyard's Little Fan Courtyard to cultivate in the level two cultivation room for a month. He had just come out of seclusion, but there were still two people who had not come out.
This person was the overlord of the Southern Courtyard, Yu Changsheng. His cultivation had already reached the great circle of the late stage of the Profound Core realm and he could break through to the Mystic Moon realm at any time, becoming one of the top four figures on the Hero Rankings. He had also created the Longevity Gang, and the Longevity Gang was undoubtedly the overlord of the Southern Courtyard.
Yu Changsheng said in a soft voice, ”To be able to suppress a middle stage fifth level middle stage Profound Core martial artist like Nie Xiong without even being able to move, even if it's me, I would have to use all my strength.” He instructed his little brother, ”Warn my brothers below to not provoke Li Er.”
Even if this person's strength isn't inferior to mine, I can imagine that he wouldn't be far off. Provoking a big enemy in the inner sect selection five months from now is unfavorable, so there's no need to go against him in these few months, as long as he doesn't provoke me. As for that Nie Xiong, if he comes to look for me, tell him that I'm training in seclusion and he's watching him closely.
The subordinate replied, ”Yes, boss, and left the courtyard.”
The outer sect disciples from three years ago could enter the outer sect as long as they reached the middle stage of the profound energy realm. To enter the outer sect now, they would need at least the strength of the late stage of the profound energy realm. Even if the outer sect disciples from three years ago had Earth grade spiritual roots, they were already influential figures.
Now that all of the outer sect disciples had Earth Spiritual Roots, there were more than ten people with Earth High Rank Spiritual Roots under Yu Changsheng's command. However, Yu Changsheng had Heaven Low Rank Spiritual Roots, if he had Heaven Rank Spiritual Roots three years ago, then he would have definitely become a Successor Disciple of the Myriad Sword Sect.
But now, he knew that with his current talent and spiritual roots, he wasn't the strongest in the outer sect. Although he had to endure it, the one ranked in the top ten was not a Heaven grade spiritual root. It seemed that this would be the most glorious era ever.
Not only did the overlord of the Southern Courtyard find out about this news, but all of the top ten or so powers in the Southern Courtyard knew that another fierce person had appeared. They all instructed their underlings that it was best not to provoke this person.
At this moment, Li Er and Wang Meng did not know that they had become famous in such a short period of time. Bringing Wang Meng along, they arrived at the Hero Tower.
When the two of them arrived at the Hero Tower, they were brought up to the fourth floor by the shop assistant Xiao Lin. The two of them were stunned as they whispered to Xiao Lin, ”Didn't the fourth floor only allow those on the Hero Leaderboard to go upstairs?”
