Chapter 603: Chapter 604: Only One-Tenth Left
“`<div>
At the fourthyer of the Transcendence Tribtion Stage, one is already at a levelparable to Situ Guixiong,pletely surpassing the standards of the other geniuses on the tform. Coupled with the pressure exerted by the Great Elder, which was mixed with a hint of the Primordial Spirit Power of top fighters, it was several times more powerful than a regr cultivator at the fourthyer of the Transcendence Tribtion Stage.
Even Situ Guixiong, at that moment, felt a sweetness in his throat and couldn’t help but spurt out a mouthful of fresh blood. Hey prostrate on the ground, soaking one hand in Tangneng First-ss medicine, and frantically cramming handfuls of Elixirs into his mouth with the other.
“Great Elder, please quell your anger. This level of pressure is beyond the scope of the martial artspetition. Please retract your power!”
“Could it be that the Great Elder intends to eliminate us all?”
A chorus of disciples also started to scream in rm, their bodies pinned down hard on the tform, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths, their flesh bodies nearly copsing.
They couldn’t even think about forfeiting and jumping off the tform; they couldn’t even rise to their feet. If this continued, their internal organs would sustain serious damage. Hearing that the Great Elder was from the direct lineage of the Great Family Head, could he be taking this opportunity to get rid of them?<div>
“This…”
The Great Elder too was startled, and his grip weakened slightly. Indeed, he had been too impatient. Ordinary disciples couldn’t withstand such an intensity of pressure.N?v(el)B\\jnn
However, when he saw Li Xiaobai, who still had no reaction, his expression became astonished once more. The pressure had risen to the fourthyer of the Transcendence Tribtion Stage, yet this guy still showed no response?
Among the younger generation, only Long Xue could manage this feat, but she is from the Sea n, with a physical constitution differing from humans, inherently much more robust.
And now this fellow was also immovably still, what was he made of, iron?
Noticing the Great Elder’s gaze, Li Xiaobai met his eyes and cracked a smile, “Great Elder, may I say a word?”
“You may speak,”
the Great Elder said indifferently.
“It’s no challenge for the Great Elder to increase the pressure little by little. Please unleash the pressure of the Mahayana Realm and eliminate all these mediocrities. Then, just announce me as the victor of thispetition. What do you all think?”
Li Xiaobai said cheerfully.
“Arrogant fool!”
“Who do you think you are? At your age, at your stage, at best your cultivation level is at the Transcendence Tribtion Stage. To be able to resist the Great Elder’s pressure, you must be relying on some unknown Magic Treasure, right?”<div>
“Indeed, among the younger generation of cultivators, Brother Situ is undoubtedly top-tier. Even if you are exceptionally talented, how much stronger can you be? To take it so lightly, you must have a Magic Treasure helping you!”
The surrounding disciples erupted collectively; their very Flesh Mountains were about to copse, and here was Li Xiaobai still provoking the Great Elder.
If the Great Elder, in his anger, were to increase his power again, they feared they would be vibrated to death on the spot.
If they hadn’t known that Li Xiaobai was an overseas cultivator, they might have suspected that the two were putting on a show, with the intention of finding an excuse to kill off the supporters of the Third Family Vice Leaders.
“Heh, boy, I’ll admit you’ve got some skills. It’s good for a young man to be confident, but if you’re arrogant andcent, you’re bound to suffer a great loss,”
the Great Elder said coldly, silently reducing his power by a considerable amount, no longer provoked, and let the incense candle burn down in peace.
“Thank you for the advice, Great Elder.”
Li Xiaobai said ndly, not taking the other’s words to heart at all, which infuriated the Great Elder, causing him to puff up his beard and re angrily.
“`
A few minutester, the trial concluded. The Great Elder withdrew his hand, and the terrifying pressure that had enveloped the arena disappeared in an instant.
The disciples let out long sighs of relief, copsing to the ground, blood and sweat intermingling, their appearances exceedingly wretched.
Themon folk within the city, as well as the family heads on the high tform, didn’t know what to say.<div>
A proper trial that should have merely weeded out those of insufficient talent nearly turned into a life-and-death ordeal, and the instigator of this cmity, Li Xiaobai, now stood at ease upon the arena, watching everyone with a smile.
“This man is truly audacious, daring to provoke an old powerhouse of the Mahayana Realm, making us disciples suffer terribly.”
“However, considering his abilities, this genius from overseas must at least be at the fourth level of the Transcendance Tribtion Stage, I’d say.”
“Being invited by the Vice Leader, he naturally wouldn’t be weak, but his disposition is indeed too arrogant. Too much rigidity can easily lead to a young man’s downfall!”
“Hehe, no matter what, this person is now caught in the whirlpool of struggle. When the Third Family Head makes a move, we can easily dispose of him.”
“Indeed, after today, our word will bew within Ai Country.”
A few family heads watched what transpired on the arena with indifferent expressions, showing not the slightest change; they knew that all this was nothing but child’s y. The real issue of the day was the conflict between the Third and Great Family Heads.
Compared to the struggle with a Half-step Human Immortal, Li Xiaobai was nothing more than an ant, trivial and unworthy of their concern.
There were still a dozen or so youths remaining on the arena, less than one-tenth of the original number. Compared to the initial grand scene, the current state of the tform appeared somewhat bleak and deste. Except for Long Xue and Li Xiaobai, every disciple’s face was pale, their breath as thin as silk, continuously drawing on the power of elixirs to recover from their injuries.
The Great Elder’s pressure had caused them to expend a tremendous amount of energy.
“The disciples who remain on the arena have sessfully advanced, well done. Each of you shall be rewarded with a Heavenly Fragrance Life-extending Pill. I hope that in the following arena battles, you all strive even harder!”
Third Family Head Master Rong stood up, and with a slight raise of her jade hand, over a dozen pills shot out,nding in the hands of the n disciples on the arena. Suddenly, the entire ce was filled with the fragrance of the miraculous medicine, carrying the unique aroma of elixirs.<div>
“This is… the Heavenly Fragrance Life-extending Pill!”
“The true Healing Saint Medicine, it’s said that this elixir can even revive flesh and mend bones from the brink of death, as long as the person still has a breath left!”
“The Third Family Head has actually given each of us one, such generosity!”
“No wonder we were left to endure the Great Elder’s pressure; it turns out, there was already a n for rewarding andpensating us. With this elixir, the injuries within my body can recover in a few breaths!”
The remaining disciples on the tform showed faces full of joy. Such high-level elixirs were treasures that their own family heads would hoard and hesitate to consume themselves, yet the Third Family Head had just handed out over a dozen at once.
Worried about how their injuries would affect them in the uing bouts, with these elixirs, injuries would no longer be an issue.
Seeing this, it seemed the Third Family Head truly considered them as her own to cultivate, or else she certainly wouldn’t have offered such high-level precious pills. When the Third Family Head rose to power, they would need to give her their full support!
“We thank the Third Family Head for her gracious gift!”
“In the arena battles, we disciples shall give our utmost effort!”
The cultivators consumed the elixirs and spoke with excitement.
Master Rong nodded, her lips parting lightly, “Mm, very good. Maintain a calm state of mind, I see promise in you.”
