Chapter 58 (1/2)

The Ten Devils’ cultivation was extraordinarily high, much more so than the students ranked in the top ten of the A class.

Firstly, it was because the Ten Devils were put through life and death massacres over the years, and their battle experiences were multiple times that of the martial pavilion’s geniuses.

Secondly, they enjoyed the rich resources that the bandits had seized, having access to martial skills and spirit medicine.

Half a year ago.

When they had bathed Whitecloud City in blood, the Ten Devils had crossed paths with the ten proud talents of the Whitecloud City’s martial pavilion.

The result was that the proud talents from the Whitecloud City suffered an utter defeat.

This was when Leng Tianya, the one ranked first amongst the Ten Devils, hadn’t even made a move!

This showed how powerful the Ten Devils were!

If the ten proud talents from the Lone Cloud City were to fight against the Ten Devils, they might end up in a worse plight.

It was because the Whitecloud City’s martial pavilion was known to be stronger than the Lone Cloud City’s.

The Yunluo Sacred Leaf they mentioned was unique to the Whitecloud City.

This leaf came from an ancient tree that was 800 years old. It would only grow ten fresh leaves every ten years.

The leaves contained an astonishing amount of essence qi, and taking just one of them could allow one to break through to the early phase of the medium constellation stage within a short period. They were said to be divine items.

However, this leaf would only be effective when taken for the first time.

It was useless to take more of it.

Right now, the Yunluo Sacred Leaf was kept in the training ground at the center of the island.

It was very easy to obtain. You would only need to prove that you were stronger than the others!

Xia Qingchen stroked the red cowl on his face. “Since you obstruct my cultivation, then I’ll take your Yunluo Sacred Leaf as compensation!”

With a tap of his foot, Xia Qingchen rapidly arrived at the training ground.

When he went there, the examination was about to start.

Several tens of figures stood together, looking toward the training ground.

There were a total of seven chairs in the center, with a Red Devil seated on each chair.

The one in the center was a young man at the third fold-level of the medium constellation stage.

“It seems that the strongest one is the fourth rank in the Red-Cowls Ten Devils, Zhao Tianfei!”

“En, the top three in the Ten Devils have already surpassed the third fold-level of the medium constellation stage. The Yunluo Sacred Leaves are ineffective on them. Therefore, they didn’t take part in this competition, allowing Zhao Tianfei to have the chance to steal the limelight!”

Zhao Tianfei sat down in an imposing manner, glancing at the ten leaves on the stone table that looked as if they were made of jade.

Those were the Yunluo Sacred Leaves that they were fighting for this time around.

The rules for the competition would be for the other people to challenge one of the seven Ten Devils.

Those who could win had the rights to take away a single leaf.

If no one could win, then the seven of them would split the ten leaves amongst themselves.

Zhao Tianfei looked around at the others, speaking in an imposing manner. “All the proud talents in every martial pavilion are just good-for-nothings who can’t even take a single blow. We, the Red-Cowls, are the ones who are great talents!”

Everyone clapped and laughed out loud, clearly showing despise toward the proud talents from the various cities’ martial pavilions.

Compared to those flowers that grew up in greenhouses, they were the great talents!

“Does any great talent here wish to challenge us seven Devils?” Zhao Tianfei bellowed in a loud voice, announcing the start of the competition!

Instantly, a ferocious-looking young bandit walked up, grinning and said, “I’m untalented and wish to challenge Skypoison Hand Zhao Yun, who is ranked tenth!”

Zhao Yun, who was seated at the end, couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s really bad to be ranked in tenth place. Everyone wants to try to step down on me! Alright, I’ll play with you!” Zhao Yun jumped out and immediately sparred with the challenger.

He was at the first fold-level of the medium constellation stage and had also learned a medium-grade yellow-tier martial skill. He could also be said to have great battle experience.

In terms of strength, it was said that someone of Zhao Tianyu’s caliber could be ranked in the top eight of the Lone Cloud City’s martial pavilion!

After three rounds.

The challenger who was of the same cultivation level let out an agonizing cry. He was struck with a poison palm attack in the chest and sent flying out. He lay on the ground, spurting foam from his mouth.

“Can’t stand up to a fight! Next!” Not long later, another challenger went up.

However, the results were the same. The person was defeated within three moves!

After ten consecutive attempts, the capable ones out of the many young experts had already gone up. However, all of them were defeated within three moves, without a single exception.
