Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 969: Chapter 969: Shameless Ambush

”Heh heh, that’s true. After all, this Ling Xiao isn’t going to survive much longer. What’s the point of fussing over a dead man?”

Peacock Phoenix Kong He sneered and finally took a seat.

Ke Long and Ke Yu had been killed, and he had endured until now. A mere guard being sent flying wasn’t enough for him to lose his temper.

”Kid, I’ll let you live a little longer!”

Harry Peng, Prince of Phoenix, also sneered before sitting down.

”Great, Ming Kong, please take a seat.”

Feng Yanran hurriedly invited Lan Yu’er and the others to sit down.

There weren’t many people on the nobles’ side, so there were a lot of empty seats, and Ji Ming Kong and his group took advantage of this and sat down.

Ling Xiao then leaped onto the Martial Arts Platform and looked towards the Blood Skeleton.

”You’ve really waited here long enough to die!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ling Xiao’s aura burst forth, and his aggressive Sword Intent soared towards the Blood Skeleton.

”You’re the one who’s finally come to die!”

The Blood Skeleton, unwilling to show weakness, transformed his death aura into a skeleton that lunged at Ling Xiao.

The two began fighting without giving the spectators any time to prepare mentally.

Sword Intent solidified into a tangible force, piercing through the void, startling many swordsmen.

”This is the fifth layer of Minor Sword Intent! So, the rumors were true!”

”It’s said he had just comprehended the first level of Minor Sword Intent, it seems his Sword Intent has improved over this past month.”

”Tsk tsk, no wonder he’s so arrogant, those who use swords always take unconventional paths.”

The blood-red skeleton collided with the Sword Intent, cracking slightly, which caused the Blood Skeleton’s expression to change drastically.

His Soul Power, being at the Late Stage of the Five Elements Sky, was actually inferior to Ling Xiao’s?

He was actually suppressed?

No wonder when he tried to oppress Ling Xiao with his death aura just now, Ling Xiao showed no reaction.

Damn!

Since his Soul Power couldn’t compete, he had no choice but to fight!

The Blood Skeleton knew that if this continued, he would definitely be at a disadvantage, attacking the enemy’s strength with his own weakness, which was very unwise.

”Good!”

”Exciting!”

Yet the spectators loudly cheered, as this scenario was exactly what they wanted to witness.

The weaker defeating the stronger, the overlooked human overcoming a powerful warrior from the Minghuo Phoenix Clan—it was the most thrilling script imaginable.

Blood Skeleton, warrior from the Minghuo Phoenix Clan, noble warrior from the Phoenix God Empire.

Ling Xiao, a human martial artist from the Heavenly Dragon Continent.

The disparity in their identities was huge.

However, it was this difference that made the excitement even more intense.

Such a battle, even waiting a day, or until tomorrow would be worth it.

”Humph!”

Just then, a cold snort came from the nobles’ seating, a powerful Soul Power that directly disrupted the clash of souls between Ling Xiao and the Blood Skeleton.

This cold snort seemed to affect both parties, but it actually gave the Blood Skeleton significant help.

It allowed the Blood Skeleton, who was about to lose in the clash of Soul Power, to break free.

The one who issued the cold snort was none other than Phoenix God College’s Vice President Fengming Wan Zhong.

”Kid, what’s the rush? You made me wait here a whole day, causing our Phoenix God College to lose a great deal of Spirit Stones, and you think you can start the duel without any explanation, dreaming of victory!”

After interfering with the battle, Fengming Wan Zhong did not show any signs of stopping. Each word he spoke infused with potent Soul Power, he continuously bombarded Ling Xiao’s Soul Sea.

Even though Ling Xiao’s soul was comparable to those of the Cave Heaven Realm Martial Artists, under the assault of a Yin-Yang Realm expert, he still sustained severe injuries.

It felt as if his Soul Sea had exploded, the discomfort was overwhelming.

Ling Xiao clutched his head on the spot, in pain as if tens of thousands of needles were stabbing into his brain.

Not only that, seeing this, the Blood Skeleton did not stop its attack. Instead, it closed in and landed a heavy punch on Ling Xiao’s body, breaking through his protective Heavenly Origin Power and leaving his clothes in tatters.

Fortunately, Ling Xiao’s defensive power was exceedingly strong, and he barely avoided a grave injury from the strike.

”Scram!”

At the critical moment, the Power of the Human King hidden within Ling Xiao burst forth, not only repelling Fengming Wan Zhong’s Soul Power but also burrowing into Fengming Wan Zhong’s Soul Sea like a parasitic worm.

Using his own method against him.

Fengming Wan Zhong let out a miserable scream, actually spitting out a mouthful of old blood, his face turning exceedingly pale with sheer terror written all over it.

As for the Blood Skeleton, it was sent flying by the rebound force, falling off the Martial Arts Platform and smashing into the ground, creating a deep pit.

His body shone like gold, complementing his hair that had turned completely golden.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was like a War God.

Seeing this, everyone was astonished.

These consecutive events had happened too fast, leaving many people completely confused.

Even Feng Qingyan hadn’t reacted in time to assist Ling Xiao.

A look of shock and joy appeared on his face.

Ling Xiao’s performance had far exceeded his expectations; the young man likely harbored astonishing powers within him.

However, Ling Xiao was not pleased.

Because his Power of the Human King was now down to seven Ding.

This was a finite power, once depleted, it would be gone.

If it hadn’t been for the life-threatening situation, he would have rather died than use it.

With his golden hair fluttering, Ling Xiao looked towards Fengming Wan Zhong and coldly said, ”Shameless old fool, you are the vice president of Phoenix God College, yet you resort to such despicable methods to ambush a junior! It’s no wonder that Phoenix God College breeds such shameless characters. Now I truly understand, the crooked lead the crooked. Don’t tell me it wasn’t you, stand up and admit it if you are still a man!”

Ling Xiao’s words left everyone dumbfounded.

Was this guy too bold? Had he eaten the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard?

He dared to publicly humiliate the vice president of Phoenix God College and exposed all the vile things the man had done, right in front of so many people.

Fengming Wan Zhong’s face was extremely ugly.

He had truly miscalculated today.

He thought he could secretly assist the Blood Skeleton to teach Ling Xiao a lesson, and with his status and position, Ling Xiao surely wouldn’t dare to say a word.

He had done such things before, and the only one to suffer had always been Ling Xiao, without any consequences for him.

But the outcome had greatly exceeded his expectations.

He was actually injured by Ling Xiao’s Soul Power, and severely at that; his head still felt as if countless scorpions were incessantly biting him.

If it had only been this, he could have found an excuse to leave and heal.

However, something even more unexpected happened.

Ling Xiao was so audacious, daring to point him out and insult him in front of so many people; if he just left, he would truly be unable to show his face ever again.

”Cough cough, what exactly are you saying, you little bastard? I can’t understand!”

Fengming Wan Zhong certainly couldn’t admit to having ambushed Ling Xiao, even if everyone knew it to be the truth, he couldn’t confess.

Once admitted, it would become others’ proof against him.

Now furious in his heart, even Feng Qingyan wouldn’t dare to insult him like this; this little human, a trivial disciple, daring to speak to him in such a manner.
