Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Three Months Is Too Short!
Direct Disciple!
As soon as Elder Chen Xuan spoke, the entire square was in an uproar.
"Luo Cheng is actually Elder Chen Xuan’s direct disciple, how did I not know of this!"
"No wonder he dares to disregard Yan Qi!"
Everyone was shocked, incredibly envious of Luo Cheng, and even jealous!
A trash who awakened a Wasted Martial Soul actually became Elder Chen Xuan’s direct disciple!
Luo Cheng was also somewhat surprised and immediately thought of the promise Elder Chen Xuan had made to him during the entrance assessment.
It seems the other party had not forgotten about it either.
Seeing Elder Chen Xuan get angry, Yan Qi frowned slightly.
Elder Chen Xuan was one of the top ten Outer Elders, a status of significant prestige. Even though he had the backing of the Crown Prince Hall, he was merely an Outer Disciple. How dare he openly oppose an elder.
The phrase "Bullying the small with the big" struck Yan Qi like a lightning bolt, making him completely calm down.
Among those four Outer Elders who dared to ignore these words, they had all been reduced to ashes with not a bone remaining!
Knowing that he could not kill Luo Cheng today, Yan Qi gave Luo Cheng a cold look and said sinisterly:
"Consider yourself lucky today! However, you won’t always be this lucky! We’ll see!"
Leaving behind a chilling threat, Yan Qi turned to leave.
"Hold on!"
Luo Cheng’s voice rang out.
The curious gazes of the crowd immediately converged.
Luo Cheng walked up to Yan Qi, his eyes indifferent, "Do you not want a fight with me? Wait until I advance to the Tongxuan Realm, and we’ll settle this with life and death here! Do you dare?"
If it weren’t for Elder Chen Xuan intervening just now, Luo Cheng would have been either dead or severely injured!
This person must die!
As for the Crown Prince Hall, having offended them already, there was no fear in further antagonizing!
This declaration left everyone astounded.
No one expected Luo Cheng, with just a cultivation at the Transcendence Realm Fifth Layer, to dare challenge Yan Qi, a warrior of the Third Stage of the Tongxuan Realm.
Yan Qi was also taken aback, but then a mocking smile crossed his face:
"Wait until you advance to the Tongxuan Realm? Haha, and if this trash can’t advance in three, five, ten, or even twenty years, am I supposed to wait for you forever?"
Luo Cheng sneered, "Rest assured, it won’t take that long, at most three months will suffice!"
"Three months to advance to the Tongxuan Realm!"
"I’ve been at the Sixth Layer of the Transcendence Realm for three months now, and I still don’t know how long it will take to advance to the Tongxuan Third Stage. How can he, with a Wasted Martial Soul, dream of achieving it!"
"It’s like a cow facing the wind trying to do the splits, pure boasting!"
Initially, everyone was dumbfounded by Luo Cheng’s claim.
Then, one by one, they burst into laughter, as if hearing the funniest joke in the world!
Advancing from the Fifth Layer to the Sixth Layer of the Transcendence Realm takes many people several months!
Even those with mediocre talent might spend one to two or three years after reaching the Sixth Layer without breaking through to the Third Stage of the Tongxuan Realm!
Each year, nearly ninety percent of the servant disciples are eliminated from the Xuanyuan Sect, highlighting how difficult it is to break through to the Third Stage of the Tongxuan Realm.
If Luo Cheng were a genius, it might be acceptable. But for a waste with a Wasted Martial Soul to claim that he would break through to the Third Stage of the Tongxuan Realm within three months was simply delusional!
Yan Qi also laughed, but he didn’t care if Luo Cheng was boasting and responded coldly:
"Fine! I’ll give you three months. Three months later, we’ll settle this with life and death here! Don’t act like a turtle hiding in its shell then! Of course, even if you want to be a turtle, you won’t have the choice!"
Leaving these words behind, Yan Qi gave a cold laugh and turned to leave.
As Yan Qi departed, the crowd also scattered while discussing.
Luo Cheng walked off the stage, with Elder Chen Xuan coming over.
"Thank you, Elder Chen!"
Luo Cheng cupped his fists in gratitude.
The other party had stood up for him several times and had no prejudice against him, deserving his respect.
Elder Chen Xuan lightly stroked his long beard and laughed, "You still call me Elder? What, unwilling to become my disciple?"
Luo Cheng froze for a moment, then hurriedly performed a deep bow: "Thank you, Master!"
Elder Chen Xuan laughed heartily, helped Luo Cheng up, and with a bit of concern said:
"You were impulsive just now. Yan Qi may be just at the First Layer of the Tongxuan Realm, but he’s still a martial artist of the Tongxuan Realm. To surpass him in three months..."
Shaking his head, Elder Chen Xuan continued:
"Breaking through from the Transcendence Realm to the Tongxuan Realm is also known as the Divine Transformation, a significant bottleneck and obstacle that transitions the physical body to the cultivation of Spirit and Essence Energy. Three months is too short..."
Luo Cheng smiled, "Master, rest assured, since I dared to boast, I have the confidence to defeat him!"
In fact, if Luo Cheng didn’t want to stabilize his realm and had the Primordial Spirit Fruit, he could have immediately broken through to the Sixth Layer of the Transcendence Realm!
He has already condensed an Essence Energy Vortex and can even utilize Essence Energy. He anticipates no bottleneck in advancing to the Third Stage of the Tongxuan Realm.
If Luo Cheng wanted to, he could break through to the Third Stage of the Tongxuan Realm in a month, no, half a month!
Seeing such confidence from Luo Cheng, Elder Chen Xuan was a bit surprised, then he recalled that when Luo Cheng participated in the entrance assessment, he was only at the Second Layer of the Transcendence Realm.
In just half a month, Luo Cheng had advanced from the Second Layer of the Transcendence Realm to the Fifth Layer, even managing to surpass and slay a martial artist of the Sixth Layer of the Transcendence Realm!
Such a rapid advancement is unheard of even for a super genius, let alone someone who awakened a Wasted Martial Soul.
This already defied normal logic!
"Elder Chen Xuan!"
"Greetings, Elder!"
At this moment, Yuan Zhilan and Gu Lingfeng approached.
Elder Chen Xuan came to his senses, nodded with a smile, and said to Luo Cheng, "See me later at Qingxuan Peak."
"Yes!"
Once Elder Chen Xuan left, Yuan Zhilan immediately exclaimed excitedly:
"Luo Cheng, congratulations! Elder Chen Xuan is one of the top ten Outer Elders. By becoming his direct disciple, your status has risen dramatically, and you can walk with pride in the Outer Sect."
Gu Lingfeng was also full of envy.
From now on, no one would dare mention that Luo Cheng was once a servant disciple.
"Status is not important, what matters is one’s own strength."
Luo Cheng remained calm; his aim was not this superficial fame.
"True."
Gu Lingfeng nodded, as today’s events with Luo Cheng had proved just that.
"Here, take this."
Yuan Zhilan handed over a wooden box and package to Luo Cheng.
Inside were four thousand Essence Energy Pills! The massive wealth that Luo Cheng had won in his bet with Gao Ming!
Luo Cheng accepted it, pondered momentarily, then pulled out four hundred Essence Energy Pills and handed them to the pair.
"Take these Essence Energy Pills, both of you."
Yuan Zhilan was taken aback, frowning, "Why is this?"
Gu Lingfeng also shook his head to refuse, "I cannot receive without merit; I’ll earn my wealth myself."
Luo Cheng laughed, "Don’t think too much about it. I consider you friends, so I’m giving them to you, hoping you can quickly break through to the Third Stage of the Tongxuan Realm. Then, we can travel the world together, wouldn’t that be a joy in life?"
Two hundred Essence Energy Pills don’t even compare to a single Primordial Spirit Fruit, and Luo Cheng wasn’t in need of these Essence Energy Pills right now.
"This..."
Yuan Zhilan and Gu Lingfeng didn’t know how to refuse.
"Alright, I’m heading to Qingxuan Peak."
Luo Cheng, not giving them a chance to protest, handed the Essence Energy Pills to them and left.
Yuan Zhilan and Gu Lingfeng stood there dazed, looking at the Essence Energy Pills in their hands.
