I alone am the Honoured One!

557  A small dispute [2]

As Lei Feng fell to his knees from Zhao Tian's kick, he clutched his abdomen, gasping for air, his face contorted in agony.

Meanwhile, Wei Liang pulled himself out of the broken wall and glared at Zhao Tian.

Li Jia hurriedly grasped Zhao Tian's arm, her eyes trembling in panic "T-Tian..."

"What is happening here?"

Hearing a hoarse voice, the four of them turned their heads and glanced at the old man who was walking towards them through the corridor.

The old man, Dayoung, was one of the sect overseers, tasked with maintaining order among the outer disciples in dorms.

Dayoung's eyes glanced around at the scene and his gaze narrowed looking at Wei Liang "What is an inner court disciple doing in new outer disciples' dorms?"

His eyes glanced at Li Jia's face and saw the red bruise with blood dripping down her cheek 'Was I late?'

Meanwhile, Wei Liang gripped his palm in anger and glanced at Zhao Tian 'What was that.. Suddenly my head was smashed on the wall. What happened?'

Lei Fang also stood up to his feet, clutching his abdomen in pain as he felt his stomach churning up.

Wei Liang glanced at Dayoung "Senior Dayoung, I just came here to get some information about my missing friend."

"But this outer disciple... seems like he wants to provoke a fight."

Zhao Tian nodded his head "Of course, that's why I smashed your head... you dimwit."

Wei Liang's face twisted with anger as he pointed a finger at Zhao Tian. "See, Senior? He admits it himself. He's the one who started all this." Dayoung clicked his tongue "An outer disciple beat an inner court disciple like you.. and your are pointing a finger at him?"

Wei Liang's gaze squinted upon hearing this and gritted his teeth in anger "That was a surprise attack.. I..."

Dayoung again glanced at Zhao Tian and a flash of surprise crossed his face 'Already at the 8th level of Stellar Essence Stage?'

One can apply to become an inner court disciple when they reach the 5th level of the Stellar Essence Stage.

'But seeing that he still hasn't applied, seems like he is waiting for the Qualification tournament, which is going to start in two days.'

Sighing in his heart, he replied "If you want to fight, there are sect arenas... there you can fight against each other by betting something. Don't do that in front of dorms.'

Dayoung spoke, glancing at the small group of disciples who had gathered there after the small commotion.

Zhao Tian's gaze condensed and he nodded his head "Ok then, we can fight in the arena. I am betting my life."

Since these two are Evil cultivators, he has already decided to kill them, and that's why he provoked him into a fight.

Within sect grounds, he can kill them legally.

And another thing is, they have hurt Li Jia... so of course he can't leave them alone after that.

H-Huh? Li Jia's eyes shrank in shock 'Betting his life...'

Hoh? Dayoung's eyebrows raised in amusement and glanced at Wei Liang "A challenge for Life or Deathmatch where you can even kill each other."

"That is a serious wager, Zhao Tian. Are you certain?"

Wei Liang, still nursing the throbbing pain in his head, sneered. "You're insane, you know that? An outer disciple like you thinks he can face an inner court disciple in a life-or-death match? Don't get ahead of yourself."

Lei Feng, clutching his abdomen, chimed in, his voice dripping with disdain. "This arrogant worm thinks he can fight Wei Liang? The audacity..."

-_- Zhao Tian stared at them blankly 'It is really easy to provoke idiots like this.'

With a sigh, Zhao Tian glanced at Dayoung "Senior Dayoung, it seems like the inner court disciples from the Crimson Flame wing are afraid of a match against a new outer disciple like me. So I withdrew my challenge."

Huh? Wei Liang's eyes squinted and he glanced at the small crowd gathered around him 'This bastard.. set me up.'

'He even used my wing name. If I don't accept now, it will be a shame to me, and my wing's reputation among the other 13 wings will fall into the gutter.'

'Why the hell is this bastard so confident about fighting me?'

As he thought, he saw through Zhao Tian's cultivation and gasped in surprise 'No wonder you are so confident, bastard. 8th level of Stellar Essence Stage?'

'Why is he still an outer court disciple? Maybe he is aiming for the Qualification tournament.'

'But I am already in the 2nd level of Heavenly tribulation stage; let's see fucker.. I will break your arrogance.'

Shaking his head, Wei Liang shook his head "Nothing like that; I will never refuse challenges. I am just worried that it will foil my reputation and people will say that I am bullying an outer court disciple."

"But since my junior brother is so confident... as an equal bet, I will also place my life to fight."

Zhao Tian glanced at Lei Feng "Both of you..."

Huh? Lei Feng's eyes quivered in anger "You-"

But Wei Liang stopped him and spoke "Alright, if you won our fight, you can fight against Lei Feng next, with his life on the line."

Hearing this, Zhao Tian smiled faintly and nodded his head.

Dayoung glanced at Zhao Tian 'Zhao Tian, the wing master Eldric Grey, has been keeping an eye on him to recruit him into his wing...'

'I wonder if he will survive this fight; there are very low chances.'

With a nod, Dayoung spoke "Then I will oversee the match; is tomorrow alright?"

Zhao Tian shook his head and replied "No, right now."

Huh?

The others were surprised and glanced at Zhao Tian.

Keeping his smile, Zhao Tian glimpsed at Wei Liang "Oh, come on now.. don't tell me, you need to warm up a day to defeat an outer court disciple like me."

"You arrogant-" As Lei Feng began to flare out, Wei Liang grasped him and put him in place.

"Okay, I agree... we can fight now."

Dayoung sighed in his heart 'This brat is truly arrogant, he robbed those disciples on the first day and now he is picking up a fight with inner court disciples.'

"Then, let's leave for the arena."

Li Jia nervously grasped Zhao Tian's hand "Tian..."

Hm? Zhao Tian turned to her and lower his head, whispering in her ear "Don't worry.. I will come and heal you later."

Dayoung noticed their closeness in amusement 'He wants to fight Wei Liang because he hurt his girl? Truly a youth reason to put your life on the line.. Hahaha.'
