Chapter 168 - Fatality (1/2)

The human Qi Practitioners were not weak at all. If they were Qi Practitioners in the Swords Gate, they may not be able to enter the Dragon and Tiger Challenger Board but their auras were much stronger than some of the Swords Gate's Qi Practitioners on the Board. These human Qi Practitioners attacked like enraged beasts, delivering all sorts of lethal attacks, causing the faces of those who had not experienced any fierce battles like Qi Feng and Yu Zhengshu to blanch in horror.

This was a battle of life and death, thus, these Qi Practitioners had to use their full strength or they would die.

The Xiao Mang Celestial Race's Qi Practitioner was also a Rebirth level Qi Practitioner, but his strength was horrifyingly powerful. He did not make any mistake despite surrounded on all sides by ten plus Qi Practitioners. He suddenly shook his head, forming a three-headed beast behind of him. The gigantic beast then roared and created terrifying soundwaves, bursting the heads of the charging human Qi Practitioners!

Zheng zheng zheng——

The human Qi Practitioners' soul weapons landed but failed to leave any wounds on the celestial race practitioner, simply being repelled off the hard surface of his skin.

Zhe——

The Xiao Mang Celestial Race's Qi Practitioner raised his hands and he swiftly cracked on a human Qi Practitioner's head, exposing the grey matter beneath.

Then, he moved like a ghost as he unleashed stormy attacks, severing limbs and ripping bodies apart. In just a split second, the ten plus Qi Practitioners were all completely slaughtered!

Dong——

A human's detached head flew and landed on the hall as the blood dripped from the neck while Zhong Yue and the others stood in front of it.

Everyone was enraged and a few of the hall masters could not bear it and their arms and legs trembled in anger. They may have had been warned by Feng Shouzhu that the Xiao Mang Celestial Race would taunt them, but none of them would have thought that it would come so soon. And neither did any of them think that it would come in the brutal form of slaughtering their own kin in front of their faces instead of verbal insults. The Xiao Mang Celestial Race was clearly making a humiliation of the entire human race as they slaughtered them in front of other humans!

As Feng Shouzhu was absent, Tian Yanzong became the leader by default and as soon as he saw the angry faces, he said with a deep tone, "This is not related to our purpose here, do not act rashly!"

"Oh, it's the Great Wilderness' Sword Gate's senior martial brothers."

The Xiao Mang Celestial Race's member looked up and said with a mocking expression, "Interested in joining the fun with me? Don't worry, you are all our guests so I definitely will not slaughter you like how I slaughtered these cattles."

Another Xiao Mang Celestial Race's member stood up and said, "Dear senior martial brothers of Swords Gate, we the Xiao Mang Celestial Race will not humiliate you. This is just a friendly match, are you all afraid of something like this? Other than that, this is my junior martial brother, Xiao Zhen. He is not one of the participants in the upcoming battle so it's fine if you have a duel with him, don't worry about him getting injured."

Everyone looked towards Tian Yanzong and he shook his head as he said, "Suck it up."

Then, he turned and said to the white-robed priest, "Elder, where is the place we are going to stay?"

The white-robed priest kept quiet and Xiao Zhen suddenly said, "Since you are not going to accept my invitation, I will have to kill another few more human Qi Practitioners for I am not satisfied yet and to provoke you guys!"

Yu Zhengshu got mad and he whispered, "How can we sit here and watch our people being slaughtered like cattle! I will fight with him!"

Tian Yanzong quickly stopped him by grabbing his shoulder and said, "No, bear with it or our plan will be disrupted!"

Yu Zhengshu struggled but failed and he looked up as he said, "Hall Master Tian!"

Tian Yanzong looked back at the white-robed priest and said, "Elder, please show us the way."

"The humans sure are capable of holding back their emotions."

The white-robed priest laughed and said as he walked forward, "Follow me."

He dragged his feet to stall for time, meanwhile, another ten human Qi Practitioners were brought up again. But this time, they were all girls. These girls put up a frightened expression and they were all trembling in fear as they were brought up to the stage like helpless sheep.

"I don't want to die…." said a female Qi Practitioner as she knelt on her knees and cried.

Suddenly, Zhong Yue dashed forward, appearing almost instantaneously in the air on top of the square from his previous position in the long hallway. Then, the ground shook and a loud sound could be heard as Zhong Yue landed a few feets away at the front of Xiao Zhen!

Tian Yanzong and Zuo Xiangsheng's face changed and they both shouted, "Zhong Shan Clan member, come back!"

Zhong Yue looked up and said, "Dear senior martial brothers, senior martial sisters and hall masters, don't worry. There's no need for me to use my triumph card on someone like him and if we do not accept their invitation, we will be mocked by them. This would adversely affect our morale for the battles to come."

Tian Yanzong shouted again, "Elder Feng told us not to act rashly and be provoked easily…."

"Why would I restrain myself against garbage such as him?"

Zhong Yue looked at Xiao Zhen and said, "Senior martial brother Xiao Zhen, do you want to have a friendly match or a duel of life and death?"

Something struck Zuo Xiangsheng suddenly and he said, "I know that Zhong Shan Clan's member would never fight a war unprepared. Senior Martial Brother Tian, just let him be and all we have to do is watch."

Tian Yanzong and the other hall masters took a deep breath and Tian Yanzong said to the white-robed priest, "Senior, about this…."

The priest smiled and said, "Why don't we head over there and observe the battle."

"Alright."
