The grievance between Xiao Zueji and Murong Xin wasn’t about whether the engagement was broken or not, but rather the humiliation and trampling of dignity that Lily Saint Sect brought to the Xiao Family back then.

In certain matters, men could let bygones be bygones, but in this aspect they had to be serious.

Now with all factions present, Xiao Zueji wanted to openly and honorably defeat Murong Xin, proving to this second-rate sect that he wasn’t that bad!

Whoosh whoosh!

Powerful aura permeated outward, instantly enveloping the martial arts stage.

Xiao Zueji no longer used the Concealment Technique to suppress his realm, but released his true strength!

“Wuwang!”

A powerful expert exclaimed: “This guy is Wuwang!”

What?

Martial artists from various sect factions widened their eyes without exception.

“The reaction is quite strong.” Jun Changxiao said.

It wasn’t that martial artists from various factions reacted strongly, but rather that reaching King level in one’s early twenties was still extremely rare!

“I heard Ancient Myriad Sect has a disciple called Ye Xingchen who has already reached Wuwang. Unexpectedly, Xiao Zueji also has this level!”

Some time ago, Ye Xingchen consecutively challenged talents on the Human Division, ascending to the top of the Human Division Rankings at the fastest speed, which had caused quite a stir.

Information about his cultivation had long been spread around.

“A fifth-rate sect actually has two King-level disciples—truly incredible!”

Xiao Zueji bursting forth with Wuwang cultivation truly shocked various martial artists.

However.

They didn’t know that the several hundred Ancient Myriad Sect disciples present all possessed Wuwang cultivation.

If they revealed all their cultivation levels, wouldn’t it scare people to death?

Jun Changxiao wouldn’t allow disciples to fully release their cultivation, because it was too shocking to the world.

When coming, he specifically instructed that if opponents weren’t extremely strong, they must suppress their cultivation to fight. Even if it created the appearance of cross-rank combat, they couldn’t expose their King-level cultivation.

Of course.

It wasn’t for being low-key, nor was it to play the pig to eat the tiger.

Rather, it was to tell Lily Saint Sect: my disciples’ apparent cultivation isn’t high, but they can still crush your sect’s disciples until they can’t take care of themselves!

This guy was deviously wicked.

Whether Lily Saint Sect was struck or not was temporarily unknown.

But Donghao Province factions were struck, because they consecutively sent out ten disciples to battle, yet couldn’t defeat even a single Ancient Myriad Sect disciple.

…

Xiao Zueji bursting forth with Wuwang cultivation shocked quite a few people.

Murong Xin was also very surprised. She hadn’t expected the other party to have the same realm as herself three years later.

Even so, she didn’t regret the decision she made back then.

The engagement would still be broken. If she had known Xiao Zueji’s cultivation was completely gone back then, she might have used a more tactful method.

Most shocked was Cheng Huixin.

She clearly remembered that several years ago when they went to the Xiao Family, this still-immature youth had a pale face and no cultivation—truly waste among wastes.

Who could have imagined that now not only had he recovered his aptitude, his realm had also reached King level!

What kind of great fortune had he encountered to rise up in such a short time?

There was no fortune.

It was nothing more than joining Ancient Myriad Sect.

Having a Sect Master who doted on him, having a group of fellow disciples who loved him.

Those Lily Saint Sect disciples who had followed Cheng Huixin to the Xiao Family felt extremely complex at this moment.

Back then when they went to the Xiao Family, they had publicly humiliated Xiao Zueji, also believing he was nothing but waste, that their junior sister breaking the engagement was perfectly justified.

But what about now?

That man stood openly and honorably on the martial arts stage, bursting forth with aura they could only look up to—it was simply the most naked face-slapping!

After Xiao Zueji released his cultivation, he was gradually reclaiming the dignity he had once lost!

Moreover.

He wasn’t alone.

Behind him stood several hundred fellow disciples and even the Sect Master—they were all his strongest backing!

This very day.

He would reclaim everything that was lost!

“Ancient Myriad Sect, Xiao Zueji!”

Xiao Zueji announced his name, his voice like a great bell, shaking the hearts of surrounding martial artists!

Murong Xin said: “Lily Saint Sect, Murong Xin.”

Whoosh whoosh—

As soon as she finished speaking, powerful aura rose from her entire body, spreading in all directions, madly clashing with the aura Xiao Zueji released.

“She’s also Wuwang!” Many martial artists exclaimed in shock.

Murong Xin bursting forth with Wuwang cultivation did shock them, but it was still within acceptable range. After all, she was a personal disciple of a second-rate sect.

To put it bluntly.

Jun Changxiao’s disciples being strong was inconceivable.

High-tier sect disciples being strong was natural and expected.

“A King-level battle will definitely be exciting!”

Many neutral faction martial artists’ eyes flashed with burning intensity.

Young King-level cultivators fighting could probably only be seen at the Dragon-Tiger Competition. Having the fortune to witness it now was truly fortunate!

Swish!

Xiao Zueji strode forward, his right fist instantly enveloped in flames, carrying tremendous force as it bombarded over.

This punch’s explosive heat was his anger suppressed for many years, finally able to completely erupt today.

“Fire element martial cultivator!”

Earlier, an Ancient Myriad Sect disciple was already a fire cultivator. Unexpectedly, Xiao Zueji was also a fire cultivator!

When did martial artists cultivating the Five Elements attributes become so worthless?

Boom!

Xiao Zueji’s heavy punch bombarded the void!

Whoosh whoosh—

Towering flames carrying years of suppressed anger permeated outward, as if transforming into a roaring fierce tiger, ruthlessly pressing toward the woman who had hurt him most deeply.

King-level bursting forth—every gesture could shake space!

“Hum!”

Murong Xin interlaced her jade hands, instantly forming a water curtain-like defensive barrier before her.

“She’s a water element martial cultivator!”

“Water overcomes fire—this will definitely create suppression!”

The crowd discussed.

Cheng Huixin and the Lily Saint Sect people smiled.

Murong Xin being a water element martial artist—they naturally knew this better than anyone. Since that guy was a fire element martial cultivator, he would definitely be firmly suppressed by water element!

Both Wuwang.

Also suppressed in attributes.

How could this Ancient Myriad Sect disciple win?

Rumble—

Just as the crowd was discussing, the towering flames fiercely bombarded the water curtain, instantly shattering it and evaporating it into mist!

Various powerful experts were dumbfounded.

Cheng Huixin and the Lily Saint Sect people’s smiles froze.

Although fire element was explosive, water attribute perfectly countered it. Yet now it was crushed, indicating that Ancient Myriad Sect disciple’s comprehension and manipulation of fire element far surpassed Murong Xin!

Boom!

Boom!

The muscles in Xiao Zueji’s arms bulged as he fiercely bombarded the void with both fists!

Whoosh whoosh—

Blazing flames instantly condensed into two fist prints pressing forward.

The explosive aura enveloped the martial arts stage. Stone slabs gradually reddened under the high-temperature roasting!

Martial artists at closer distances couldn’t withstand the temperature and retreated backward one after another.

This guy!

His comprehension of flames is truly strong!

“Hum!”

“Hum!”

Murong Xin steadied herself, interlacing both hands as water element attributes poured out like a waterfall, condensing layer upon layer of water element defensive barriers before her.

Such fluid technique execution showed her comprehension of water element attributes was also extremely strong.

Boom!

Boom!

Two explosive fire fists fiercely bombarded the water element barrier, once again ruthlessly shattering it. Murong Xin could no longer support herself, staggering backward several steps in explosive retreat, her face becoming extremely ugly.

“This Lily Saint Sect disciple has fallen to a disadvantage.”

“Although water overcomes fire, if fire element comprehension is extreme, it can conversely suppress water element!”

“Moreover, Xiao Zueji’s physical body seems extraordinary. He also has suppression in strength.”

“If Murong Xin doesn’t have any trump cards, she has completely no chance of victory!”

Various experts discussed.

Many Donghao Province martial artists, though supporting Murong Xin, could tell from the brief exchange that Xiao Zueji’s strength was undoubtedly stronger!

“Sigh.”

Jun Changxiao said: “I originally thought it would be an evenly matched contest. Unexpectedly, Lily Saint Sect’s personal disciple is this pathetic.”

“…”

The corners of everyone’s mouths twitched.

Big brother, you’re truly arrogant. We’re convinced!
