Heavenly Tyrant Martial Soul

Before Ling Xiao’s turn, the most anticipated challenge of the second round was Ling Zhan challenging Ling Yihang.

Merely, Ling Zhan lost without any doubt.

Ling Yihang’s blade was too terrifying. Some people felt that he might be the only person who could pose a threat to Ling Yun and Ling Feifan.

Naturally, this battle ended quickly; one couldn’t call this match brilliant. Until the turn of the tenth ranked Ling Xiao, no other match could ignite the audience’s enthusiasm.

“Ling Yun!”

“Ling Yun!”

As Ling Xiao stood to make his challenge, the audience seethed with excitement. Almost all the clan’s disciples yelled Ling Yun’s name.

If Ling Xiao challenged Ling Yun, they would naturally support Ling Yun.

Even Ling Feifan’s fans temporarily supported Ling Yun.

“Does that Ling Xiao really dare to challenge Senior Apprentice bBother Ling Yun?”

“As I see it, he was just bragging before. Now that it’s his turn, he won’t.”

“Speaking about it, Senior Apprentice Brother Ling Yun is the only one who can challenge Senior Apprentice Brother Feifan for his throne at number one. As for Ling Xiao, just being able to enter the top ten is already amazing.”

“You all don’t understand Ling Xiao. Since he had said it, he won’t back down!”

“Yes, hasn’t Ling Xiao also not yet shown his true abilities?”

The people supporting Ling Xiao unexpectedly were Ling Shuang’s female fans.

However, that was normal. Since Ling Yun had beaten her so badly, her fans weren’t too happy. Even though they didn’t have any great expectations for Ling Xiao, they still supported him.

What if a miracle happened?

But would he really challenge the number two?

Almost everyone present waited for these answers.

Uncle Ling Er frowned.

He didn’t want Ling Xiao to challenge Ling Yun because he was not optimistic about Ling Xiao’s chances. Doing so just highlighted Ling Xiao falling for Ling Yun’s prodding.

Ling Xiao glanced at Ling Yun with a strange smile.

“What is this kid thinking?”

Startled, Ling Yun suddenly felt that something was wrong.

“I want to challenge the ranked first Ling Feifan!”

Ling Xiao radiated confidence.

He had changed his mind.

There was no point in defeating Ling Yun. Directly defeating Ling Feifan would deal a larger blow to Ling Yun than defeating Ling Yun himself.

After all, Ling Yun had always been defeated by Ling Feifan, and no one had defeated Ling Feifan in the past three years.

Therefore, Ling Yun had always felt that only he was qualified to defeat Ling Feifan.

If Ling Xiao defeated Ling Feifan… just thinking about it was exciting.

Naturally, Ling Xiao was not completely confident against Ling Feifan. In fact, he wasn’t even 60% sure of victory.

He didn’t know much about Ling Feifan.

However, it was not a problem. In any case, he still had four chances left. If he won, the problem would be solved directly. If he lost, it wouldn’t matter either.

Not daring to challenge him in this kind of situation was silly.

What!?

Ling Xiao didn’t challenge Ling Yun but rather Ling Feifan, who was even stronger.

“Ling Xiao, you bastard! Why didn’t you challenge me?”

Ling Yun jumped up and roared..

“You are not qualified for me to challenge you.”

Ling Xiao indifferently added, “Although Ling Feifan is also not qualified, he is a bit stronger than you. He barely aroused my interest.”

Snap!

This fellow was crazy!

The Genius Hall’s number two was not qualified to fight him?

The Genius Hall’s number one also was not qualified enough?

What did he mean?

Did he think that he was better than the Genius Hall’s number one and two?

Ling Feifan had never cared much about Ling Xiao, but this time, he couldn’t afford to not care.

Even if his temper had been more mild, he wouldn’t endure being looked down on by others.

However, Ling Xiao didn’t care about his thoughts. To forcibly seize the number one seat, he had to prepare for other people’s challenges.

He loudly announced towards the judges’ seats: “Before, didn’t you all say that I was not worthy of the same privileges as Ling Feifan? Now, I will let you all know whether I have the qualifications!”

“This kid!”

Ling Xiaotian’s eyes flashed with an extraordinary radiance.

For many years, there had been too many honest and timid disciples. They hadn’t dared to challenge the clan’s authority or its intrinsic rules.

Therefore, no matter how outstanding they were, they could only muddle around within Heavenly Peak City.

Ling Xiao’s appearance offered him a glimmer of hope.

“Let me see whether you are just good with your mouth or truly have skills!”

When a capable person was arrogant, it was not arrogance; it was called being domineering and confident!

When an incompetent person was arrogant, it was not arrogance; it was called being foolish and ignorant!

Was Ling Xiao domineering and confident or foolish and ignorant?

Ling Xiaotian truly desired to know the answer.

“Ling Xiao, you are the most ignorant disciple I have ever encountered! Change your thoughts, and I will treat it as you having said nothing just now!”

The former chief judge reprimanded him.

Originally, he had still had a slight good opinion of Ling Xiao. However, he felt that this was truly unreasonable.

Was Ling Feifan someone he could challenge?

Was he qualified?

It was already a pretty good result for an unqualified disciple to enter the Genius Hall’s top ten. However, he actually challenged the first ranked Ling Feifan! Wasn’t this pure ignorance?

“Judge, I originally respected you, especially in the elimination rounds when you stopped Ling Shisan from breaking the rules! But now, I am truly more and more disappointed in you. Why can’t I challenge Ling Feifan? How am I not qualified?”

Ling Xiao loudly proclaimed, “Judge, I have no intentions of arguing with you on this matter. However, if I defeat Ling Feifan, I hope that you will apologize to me for your ignorance!”

“Ling Xiao! You are too excessive! Someone take this kid who doesn’t understand etiquette away!”

Standing from his seat, Ling Jiu roared.

“Yes, quickly take him away!”

Ling Shisan added.

“What a joke! I don’t understand etiquette!? There is a saying to ‘not impose on others what you yourself do not desire’! How can someone who doesn’t respect others want other people to respect him!”

Ling Xiao sneered. “In the entire Ling Clan, besides my grandfather, I only respect three people. One is the Medicine Hall elder, the other one is Uncle Ling Er, and the final one is Patriarch Ling!”

His words were wise. Even if he offended others, he wouldn’t offend everyone with power, especially those who had been kind to him.

Besides, Ling Xiaotian was relatively fair. He indeed relatively respected this old man.

“Hahaha, what a good saying: ‘do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire.’”

Ling Xiaotian heartily laughed. “This challenge is allowed within the rules. No one can obstruct you. Also, Judge, you are a judge, moreover, a senior judge. Don’t break the rules.”

No one would hate someone who respected them.

Ling Xiaotian was no exception.

Besides, he wanted to see the battle between Ling Xiao and Ling Feifan. Why would he stop this challenge?

“Yes, Patriarch!”

The judge had lost his self-control because he was too protective of Ling Feifan. In fact, he was relatively fair. After all, he had no grudge against Ling Xiao.

On the contrary, Ling Jiu and Ling Shisan trembled with anger, but what could they do? In front of Ling Xiaotian, they didn’t dare to fart.

“What’s your name?”

With narrowed eyes, Ling Feifan remained sitting in his seat and asked.

“Ling…”

“Never mind, it doesn’t matter.”

As he replied, Ling Feifan cut him off.

“In any case, you will soon go down. I don’t know who gave you the courage to challenge me, but this joke isn’t funny at all.”
