Chapter 1479: Sun Shihai Standing Above All (1/2)
Under everyone’s attentive gazes, Sun Shihai and Zheng Ming walked towards the center of the great hall.
Due to the apprenticeship ceremony’s ritual, a wide empty space was left open at the center of the great hall, enough for these participating disciples to display their strengths.
Standing at the center of the great hall, Sun Shihai took out his low-grade grandmist spiritual weapon Dragon Devourer Spear, and channeled his godforce into it. Instantly, the inscribed heaven devouring beast on the spear’s body emitted a soul-shaking roar.
This sudden and startling roar shook everyone.
“It’s the Dragon Devourer Spear!” Azure Dragon Emperor Chen Jianwei blurted out.
His words sent another wave of shock through the great hall.
It was no secret that the Dragon Devourer Spear was a weapon that had followed Zhou Chen for as long as everyone could remember, hence it was no surprise that the Azure Dragon Emperor and other Emperors recognized it at a glance.
Azure Dragon Emperor Chen Jianwei looked at Zhou Chen and chuckled, “I hadn’t expected Old Brother Zhou Chen to have gifted the low-grade grandmist spiritual weapon Dragon Devourer Spear to Sun Shihai ah.”
Zhou Chen chuckled with pleasure. “Although this Dragon Devourer Spear is quite powerful, it is not of much use to me now. So I gave it to Shihai to protect himself.”
The Emperor’s Disciples and supreme godhead geniuses in the hall, including Zheng Ming, looked enviously at the Dragon Devourer Spear in Sun Shihai’s hand—that’s a low-grade grandmist spiritual weapon ah!
“Tsk, tsk, low-grade grandmist spiritual weapon ah, this Ancestor Zhou Chen is really willing to support his personal disciple.” Even Chen Hao sighed in envy.
Huang Xiaolong nodded in agreement with a plain expression.
Inwardly, he was thinking, ‘Merely a low-grade grandmist spiritual weapon.’
If he managed to find the lower part of the Blood Eye Devil Stele, and refined it, the complete Blood Eye Devil Stele would be a top-grade grandmist spiritual artifact!
Though his Yellow Springs Magic Robe was damaged, before it had suffered the damage, it was also a higher grade grandmist spiritual artifact.
In short, Huang Xiaolong really didn’t put the so-called Dragon Devourer Spear in his eyes.
Low-grade grandmist spiritual artifacts may be rare but there were definitely more than a handful of it in the Divine World. In fact, one could occasionally find low-grade grandmist spiritual artifacts in auctions on Heavens Avenue, even though their prices were sky-high. Then again, Huang Xiaolong did not lack spirit stones.
Right at this time, a burst of cheers sounded in the hall. Huang Xiaolong looked towards the center of the Hall and realized that Sun Shihai and Zheng Ming had begun to battle.
In a collision, Zheng Ming was sent staggering backward, and there was a big hole in his weapon!
The big blade in Zheng Ming’s hand was a top-grade chaos spiritual weapon, but compared to the low-grade grandmist spiritual weapon Dragon Devourer Spear, its quality was more than one level lower.
On top of that, Sun Shihai’s cultivation was already at the early of Second Order God King Realm, infinitely close to advancing to peak early Second Order God King Realm. This was one order higher than Zheng Ming. The difference in strength was immediately obvious in that collision.
As Zheng Ming staggered backwards, Sun Shihai leaped forward, closing in the distance between them in the blink of an eye, raising and thrusting the Dragon Devourer Spear forward. The spear struck Zheng Ming’s body and he immediately felt a pain in his chest, and others saw Zheng Ming’s body make an arch across the air.
“Yield.” Sun Shihai stood with his chest puffed out as he cupped his fists at Zheng Ming while still holding his spear.
Zheng Ming stood up slowly from the floor as he forced a smile, “Many thanks to Brother Sun for showing mercy.”
Sun Shihai had used the spear’s body to strike Zheng Ming, but had he used the tip of the spear instead, Zheng Ming’s chest would have been pierced through, resulting in heavy injury.
The Azure Dragon Emperor’s face looked a little ugly at Zheng Ming’s defeat. Sun Shihai’s battle strength was higher than he had estimated, and Sun Shihai hadn’t even resorted to the Celestial Blood Ape Physique. Not to mention, a disciple of his sect was defeated in two moves!
Two moves!
Initially, he had assumed that Sun Shihai and Zheng Ming would at least exchange several hundred moves, and even if Zheng Ming would have lost at that point, the Nine Dragons Emperor Palace wouldn’t have looked so bad, as it did now. After all, Sun Shihai’s cultivation realm was slightly higher than Zheng Ming, it was a given.
But losing within two moves was too ugly a defeat.
Contrary to Chen Jianwei’s current mood, Fang Gan, Zhou Chen, and others belonging to the Fortune Emperor Palace were smiling from ear to ear as they nodded in satisfaction.
“Any other Brothers would like to enlighten me and vice versa?” Sun Shihai cupped his fists towards the various Emperor Palace’s Emperor’s Disciples in the hall. Proper and decent, Sun Shihai was akin to a crane standing in a flock of chickens, attracting the gazes of more than half the young women in the great hall.
“I am the Eternal Emperor Palace’s Wangu Xiaoyao. I would like to exchange some pointers with Brother Sun Shihai.” At this time, a dashing young man stood up and greeted Sun Shihai with cupped fists.
