Earlier, it had seemed to the crowd that Su Yi didn’t have even the slightest sign of a cultivation base. He was entirely unassuming.

But now that he’d attacked, his power was like a rock facing a thin window. He’d sent Peng Qingsong flying with a punch in a display of tyrannical power. This was entirely contrary to their expectations!

Especially A’Ning, who was struck dumb.

“He…He actually defeated Peng Qingsong with a flick of his fingers?” A’Ning’s beautiful eyes widened, and her delicate face filled with disbelief.

Despite having predicted that Su Yi wouldn’t have stepped forth unless he had reason to be confident, she would never have guessed that the guy her little sister had saved would be this strong!

“Big Brother Su won? Just like that?” murmured A’Li. It seemed she dared not believe it either.

She’d yet to truly step onto the path of cultivation. She had no idea how terrifying the power of Su Yi’s casual finger strike really was.

“That boy is actually an expert of the World King Realm?” Elder Ma Xingkong and the other Jade Firmament Immortal Sect higher-ups were stunned. They’d subconsciously written Su Yi off as a hanger-on mooching off of A’Li, so they’d never taken him at all seriously.

Now, they suddenly realized their error in judgment!

Qian Yu was stunned too, and deeply uncomfortable. He couldn’t help but laugh coldly, “It’s a pity, but such strength won’t necessarily be enough to survive to the end!”

Chang Lexing silently shook his head. Qian Yu is a hopeless idiot.

Suddenly, the stifled silence broke. Uproar arose on all sides.

“Peng Qingsong actually lost?” said one of the onlookers. He was struggling to accept it.

“That guy really is strong! No wonder he dared initiate a life-or-death challenge!” someone said excitedly.

“That’s what makes this interesting!” someone laughed.

The prominent elites in the audience all looked solemn.

They said that only a mighty dragon dared to cross a raging river! After this display of strength, no one would dare look down on Su Yi anymore.

Even the immortal sects’ higher-ups had strange looks on their faces as they started re-evaluating this challenger.

“He defeated Peng Qingsong with such ease. Within the World King Realm, that makes him a peak expert. I suspect he can compete with wondrous geniuses like Zhou Budu and Xie Yunfeng.”

“Who is he? Why haven’t we heard of him before?”

“Investigate! If we could recruit a talent like that…”

“Better to wait a bit first. If he fails his challenge, he’s doomed.”

…As discussion rang out nonstop, another figure charged onto the stage.

Nie Yunshuang!

“I’ll fight you!” he said directly, already gripping his spear and charging from afar.

This was the nature of a challenge; Su Yi had to fight anyone who accepted his invitation. He had no right to refuse.

“An ant trying to shake a tree.” Su Yi waved his sleeve.

Bang!

Nie Yunshuang was sent flying back. He slammed into the dirt outside the stage, bleeding from all seven apertures of his face as his bones snapped.

Su Yi had just swung his arm in what looked like a casual, understated gesture. However, when this blow landed, it was like a mountain in motion. One strike was enough to deal Nie Yunshuang a massive setback!

The crowd was shaken once more. Gasps rang out, one after another.

Nie Yunshuang’s strength was completely comparable to Peng Qingsong’s, but Nie Yunshuang had learned from Peng Qingsong’s example. He used his full strength right off the bat, holding nothing back.

But he’d still lost!

One swing of Su Yi’s sleeves, and the curtains fell on his abject defeat!

By now, everyone could tell that the likes of Peng Qingsong and Nie Yunshuang were in no way qualified to accept Su Yi’s challenge.

They’d only be seeking out their own humiliation!

“I wouldn’t have thought such a dark horse would appear at the Seven Stars Immortal Assembly.”

The experts of the seven immortal sects could no longer remain seated. They now looked at Su Yi with dense curiosity.

Except for the experts of the Jade Firmament Immortal Sect, who frowned. Elder Ma Xingkong’s expression was a bit overcast.

Earlier, they’d repeatedly criticized and rebuked Su Yi. None of them were happy to see his display of strength.

“Big Sister, isn’t Big Brother Su sure to win?” A’Li’s phoenix eyes sparkled, and her little face was full of excitement.

A’Ning had relaxed quite a bit, and her eyes sparkled too, but she said, “Don’t get excited prematurely. The true experts have yet to take the stage.”

Su Yi’s display of strength came as an unexpected, delightful surprise to her too.

Meanwhile, Su Yi stood on stage. He swept his gaze across his surroundings and said flatly, “A word of warning. I’m only here to teach that bastard Wen Yuanming a lesson. Everyone else had best think carefully. Otherwise, you’ll only invite your own humiliation.”

Uproar ensued amongst the crowd. Su Yi’s sheer domineeringness left them all startled.

Wen Yuanming had been leisurely sipping tea all this time, but now, he couldn’t help but frown and snort coldly. Every time Su Yi brought him up, he was sure to call him a “bastard.” How could Wen Yuanming not be angry?

An elder turned to look at him. “Wait a while longer. A bungling clown, that’s all. He isn’t worthy of your personal intervention.”

“Very well.” Wen Yuanming nodded.

But inwardly, he’d already made up his mind. If no one else could kill Su Yi, he’d get on stage and do it himself. He’d snap that madman’s neck in front of the crowd and trample him beneath his feet!

“Brazen! Are you looking down on us?” Xie Yunfeng stepped forth and strode into the arena like a dragon or a tiger. He had a saber on his back and an air of contemptuous pride.

Uproar ensued.

Xie Yunfeng was the greatest World King of the Profound Transformation Daoist Sect’s younger generation, a genius saber cultivator, the kind that only appeared once in a thousand years. He was one of the top ten young elites of the Jing Province’s younger generation!

He was also one of the favorites to enter the top ten of the Seven Stars Immortal Assembly!

But Xie Yunfeng had only just appeared when yet another figure stepped forth.

He was an elegant, ethereal figure in clothes whiter than snow. His hands gripped a jade ruler.

This was none other than Zhou Budu!

An unrivaled figure not one whit inferior to Xie Yunfeng.

“Very well. I’ll test our fellow Daoist too!”

Suddenly, an icy voice rang out, and Zheng Tiantu took the stage. His eyes blazed as if they were on fire, and his long black hair billowed around him, making him seem dignified and imposing.

Three peak chosen sons of heaven had appeared at once. The atmosphere completely caught ablaze as waves of uproar rose from the stands.

“You can choose which of us you’d like to duel,” Zhou Budu said flatly.

The crowd looked over to see what Su Yi would choose. Xie Yunfeng, Zhou Budu, and Zheng Tiantu were all hegemons among the province’s World Kings!

The way they saw it, no matter which of them Su Yi chose, a fierce competition was sure to follow!

“This is getting serious.” A solemn look appeared on A’Ning’s face. As one of the province’s top ten young elites herself, she naturally understood how terrifying the three of them were.

Worst of all, even if Su Yi won, he’d just have to fight another duel. That would surely drain an enormous amount of his strength. It was even likely he’d get injured.

And Wen Yuanming had yet to take the stage!

“Haha, that guy is finally in for it now!” Qian Yu couldn’t help but laugh.

“He really doesn’t have much hope of victory,” Ma Xingkong said expressionlessly.

The whole crowd was talking about them. Everyone was paying close attention.

But Su Yi didn’t even seem to notice the stifled tension in the air. He just stood there, one hand behind his back, without even looking at Zhou Budu or the others. Instead, he just said, “Since you’ve chosen to seek out your own humiliations, I’ll give you what you want. Go ahead and attack together. I’m in a hurry.”

His casual indifference and contemptuous pride, as if all of them were entirely beneath his notice, left the crowd dumbstruck. A moment later, they were in uproar, like a pot blowing off its lid.

None of them would have guessed that this challenger of unknown origins would be this brazen!

Given their proud natures, the three top elites couldn’t help but lose their tempers.

“Let’s see whether or not you’re capable of that!” said the fiercest of the group, Xie Yunfeng. He attacked directly.

A crowd watched as leaped into the air, drawing and swinging his saber. His slash created an enormous streak of golden saber qi. A lifelike illusory golden dragon rose within the saber, shaking both heaven and earth.

The Song of Heaven Divine Dragon Saber!

This was Song of Heaven Divine Mountain’s greatest legacy of the Dao of the Saber. Rumor had it that when practiced to mastery, a single slash could unleash eight heavenly dragons and suppress both heaven and earth.

Xie Yunfeng hadn’t reached that level, but he was still extraordinarily terrifying!

Bang!

Su Yi’s casual strike shattered the ten-thousand-foot golden dragon of saber qi. That tyrannical saber force broke like paper window paneling.

Even more terrifying, as Su Yi’s palm strike swept outward, it sent Xie Yunfeng directly out of the stage.

“Allow me to test your strength!” Zheng Tiantu bellowed and leaped into the air, unleashing a secret art and stirring up dazzling, stingingly bright divine blue flames.

Flames ran rampant, like a fiery sea. Even the sky caught ablaze. The fire was so fierce and tyrannical as to incinerate the vast majority of World Kings with ease.

But Su Yi’s eyes just shone with a hint of disdain. He opened his mouth and exhaled.

Boom!

A fierce gale swept outward, like an astral wind from beyond the nine heavens, extinguishing the vast sea of blue flame.

Zheng Tiantu was like duckweed swept into a hurricane. The gale tossed him high into the sky, then slammed him to the ground, hard. The impact left him dazed and seeing stars. Shockingly, he couldn’t get back up.

Upon closer inspection, he had fine, bleeding cuts all over his body. It was a startling sight!

“Die!” Practically simultaneously, Zhou Budu attacked. He took a big step forward, his pristine white clothes swaying around him and his entire body swathed in golden light. He raised his jade ruler into the air and swung with all his might.

The power of his strike was enough to split mountains and rivers and bear down on the sky. It seems unstoppable; practically no present-day World King would have dared face it head-on.

This was the killer weapon Zhou Budu kept in reserve!

But Su Yi neither fled nor dodged. He just let it slam into him. A rain of sparks scattered on impact, but Su Yi’s tall, upright figure was like a divine mountain; he didn’t even budge.

Nor did he have so much as a hair out of place!

“Truly weak.” Su Yi subtly shook his head.

Beneath Zhou Budu’s horrified gaze, he raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, and punched.

Zhou Budu instinctively defended himself with his jade ruler, only for it to shatter instantaneously on impact. Su Yi’s fist slammed directly into his chest.

Crack!

Zhou Budu’s rib cage caved in, and he was sent flying from the stage.

Although he struggled back to his feet, the residual force kept pushing him back, and his feet created two chasms in the ground, each a thousand feet long!

Then, he coughed up blood and bent at the waist, no longer able to take it. He thudded to the ground, his hair in disarray and his face as white as paper.

One slap had sent Xie Yunfeng flying.

A breath had scattered the blue flames filling the sky and forced Zheng Tiantu back.

And a punch had knocked Zhou Budu off the stage!

In the blink of an eye, these three peak World Kings of the Jing Province, each a chosen son of heaven, had suffered a crushing defeat.

From beginning to end, Su Yi just stood there, one hand behind his back. He’d used one hand to dominate the competition!

One hand to determine victory and defeat!

Everyone who saw this was so astonished that they fell into a daze.
