Chapter 1017: Let Me Try
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
”That's right, I'm God Monarch Pu Peng from the Big Dipper God Path so please start your attack.” The tall man with shoulder length hair spoke as his mighty God Monarch's aura swept outwards. In that instant, the defensive array of this temporary battlestage started to crack.
”Since this is the case, Ju Shen shall learn from you.” Even though the other party was a God Monarch, Ju Shen was still the number one Heavenly God of Nirvana Learning Academy. Naturally, he wouldn't back down like a coward.
Seeing that Ju Shen was really going to fight a real God Monarch, all the spectators grew interested. Ju Shen was ranked number one among the Heavenly Gods so if he could defeat a God Monarch, it would be a great motivation for all the Heavenly Gods around.
The space around the battle stage seemed to have been ripped as Ju Shen's massive banner turned into flaming hot energy.
Cultivators located nearer to the battlestage moved away rapidly.
Pu Peng's explosive domain surged over and just like everyone's guess, Ju Shen might be impressive but he was still only a Heavenly God.
His domain was destroyed by Pu Peng's domain and Ju Shen turned pale immediately.
”Kacha!” The battlestage let out a cracking sound as it turned into nothingness in split seconds. Ju Shen and Pu Peng both landed on the ground.
Ju Shen's flaming hot banner had now wrapped around himself to protect his own body. Ju Shen didn't continue to attack as he clasped his fist. ”Dao Friend Pu, I am not a match for you. Even so, among the 4000 resource tablets, I own 1000 of them so I do wish to take back 1000 of my resource tablets.”
Pu Peng clasped his fist emotionlessly. ”Alright.”
Only Mo Wuji could see clearly. Even though Pu Peng had oppressed Ju Shen, Ju Shen should still be capable of fighting back. Evidently, Pu Peng was aware of this point as well. This was why he allowed Pu Peng to take back 1000 of his resource tablets. If he chose not to agree, both parties might suffer great injuries.
After Ju Shen backed out, Pu Peng's domain was still extending outwards wildly. His aura as a God Monarch had reached the maximum.
”If nobody else wants to challenge, I am going to collect all the resource tablets belonging to me.” Pu Peng said with a vicious tone.
Ju Shen had just lost so who would dare to challenge? Everyone was well aware that even ranked number 2 of the ten great Heavenly Gods was multiple folds weaker than Ju Shen.
Ju Shen might be able to keep his life against Pu Peng but the Heavenly God ranked number 2 might not be able to do the same.
”Let me try,” a hoarse voice was heard and Mo Wuji walked calmly out of the crowd.
Pu Peng's expression changed drastically even though he had already spotted Mo Wuji before this. Even after leaving the location with the primal god spiritual energy, he also suspected that Mo Wuji wasn't a God Monarch. Mo Wuji was able to kill Li Wuzhen because of his mighty lightning tribulation. As he thought about it, if Mo Wuji wasn't undergoing his God Monarch tribulation, how was his tribulation, alone, able to kill Li Wuzhen?
The only possible explanation was that Mo Wuji's lightning tribulation became stronger because Li Wuzhen entered. However, even this explanation seemed a little implausible. The point was that Mo Wuji remained unharmed throughout the entire lightning tribulation.
The reason why Pu Peng didn't take away the resource tablets immediately after defeating Ju Shen was that he wanted to see if Mo Wuji would step forward. If Mo Wuji didn't dare to come out, that would prove that Mo Wuji really wasn't a God Monarch and that his tribulation's success was probably due to some treasure. If Mo Wuji dared to step forward, it would mean that regardless whether Mo Wuji was truly a God Monarch, Mo Wuji didn't fear him at all.
The entire crowd was dumbfounded. Knowing that Pu Peng was a God Monarch, who would still dare to challenge him?
How strong was Ju Shen? Even Ju Shen admitted defeat to Pu Peng. Who was this ignorant fella? Was he not afraid of death?
Ju Shen and the four other Heavenly Gods, who were ranked in the top 10, were equally as shocked. Who was this person?
Mo Wuji didn't take out any resource tablets to place his bets as he spoke, ”Dao Friend Pu Peng, I shall not take out any tablets because you should know that I have quite a number of resource tablets on me. As long as you win me, my storage ring will be yours.”
A simple sentence like this made Pu Peng even more astonished.
Mo Wuji's killing of Gai Ji and Li Wuzhen was still fresh in Pu Peng's mind so he still had a sort of fear towards Mo Wuji. Now that Mo Wuji said something like this, it would mean that both of them would be fighting to their death. The items of the person who dies will belong to the survivor.
He had just stepped into the God Monarch Stage so he really didn't want to end up like Li Wuzhen.
At this moment, a clear voice sounded in the void. ”The first assessment of Nirvana Learning Academy's fight for resources has ended. May I invite all disciples to prepare and everyone would be transferred out of here in an incense's time.”
Following that, faint light radiance landed far away from everyone. An indistinct transfer array was gradually being built.
Pu Peng never intended to fight Mo Wuji so he took advantage of the announcement. ”Dao Friend, since the time is almost up, let's just divide these resource tablets among the two of us.”
Despite Pu Peng not abiding by the rules set by Ju Shen and co. previously, nobody dared to comment. A God Monarch was capable of killing any single one of them here.
