Chapter 25: Qin Feilong Battles Ling Yangping
Ling Yangping heard this and rubbed his fists and palms, immediately saying: “No problem.”
Seeing Ling Yangping step onto the stage, a hint of understanding flashed in Ming Zhaoshuang’s eyes, and she smiled.
It turned out to be true, as in the original book, it was Ling Yangping who fought Qin Feilong. The former was about to break through to the late Golden Core stage, while the latter had just entered the early Golden Core stage, which could be described as a complete crushing.
But who let Qin Feilong be the male protagonist? This guy couldn’t defeat the protagonist’s powerful aura and lost to Qin Feilong.
I didn’t expect that even after changing the rules, these two would still end up facing each other.
Ming Zhaoshuang became more relaxed, but Qin Du became more anxious, so anxious that he even stood up:
“Xu Qingfeng can be said to be just an ordinary disciple, so if Long’er can defeat him, it’s understandable. But this Ling Yangping, not to mention his deeper cultivation, he is also the beloved son of the Sect Master Lingxiao, and the magical artifacts he possesses are countless. How can Long’er possibly defeat him?”
Ming Zhaoshuang comforted him, “Uncle Qin, we must trust Senior Brother Qin. There is no one in this world more powerful than him.”
Of course he’s powerful, he’s the novel’s male protagonist.
Ming Zhaoshuang’s words were so natural that she didn’t even notice Qin Feilong glancing at her subtly as she spoke.
I have to say, his Junior Sister Ming is quite good-looking.
Since she trusts him so much, how could he possibly let her down?
Thinking this, Qin Feilong began to fight Ling Yangping, but was violently repelled by Ling Yangping’s profound spiritual power, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
After more than ten exchanges, Qin Feilong was almost in a state of steady retreat.
“I am not that waste Xu Qingfeng. You, who have just entered the Golden Core stage, how can you possibly defeat me?”
During the exchange, Ling Yangping smiled sinisterly, but saw Qin Feilong suddenly pat him, saying: “Break!”
Immediately, an explosion sounded, and Ling Yangping was forced back several steps by the shock.
He narrowed his eyes and said, “Explosion Talisman? That’s a good thing.”
Qin Feilong wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled playfully:
“I have more than a dozen of these good things.”
Saying this, he leaped up, and while repeatedly exchanging blows with Ling Yangping, he also slapped five or six Explosion Talismans onto Ling Yangping, shouting loudly:
“Break!”
In an instant, the sound of explosions filled the air, and the entire competition arena was shrouded in smoke.
Qin Du was stunned: “Old Hua, how many Explosion Talismans did you give Long’er? Can he defeat him?”
Peak Master Hua Tianfeng was also bewildered. When Qin Feilong was still a good-for-nothing, he had indeed given him two or three Explosion Talismans to prevent him from being bullied.
But so many Explosion Talismans, he definitely didn’t give them.
Ming Zhaoshuang, as someone who had read the original novel, explained to the two dazed old men:
“This Explosion Talisman, Senior Brother Qin drew it himself. He is not only a Sword Cultivator but also a Talisman Master. It’s just that these Explosion Talismans are of too low a grade, they can’t harm…”
Before she could finish speaking, she saw the smoke dissipate, and Ling Yangping was still standing in the center of the arena.
At this moment, his clothes were almost completely tattered by the Explosion Talismans, revealing what he was wearing – a High-Grade Profound Spirit Tool!
In the cultivation world, Spirit Tools are divided into five ranks: Heaven, Earth, Profound, Yellow, and Mortal, with Heaven being the highest.
Heavenly Grade Spirit Tools are the rarest, with only a few in the entire Upper Cultivation World, and only the most elite are worthy of possessing them.
Earthly Grade Spirit Tools are next, and most of the high-ranking individuals in the Upper Cultivation World use Earthly Grade Spirit Tools.
Profound Grade Spirit Tools are what ordinary people in the Upper Cultivation World use.
For the Lower Cultivation World, a Profound Grade Spirit Tool may not be particularly rare, but a High-Grade Profound Tier is truly scarce. You must know that the Spirit Tools most disciples usually use are mostly Yellow Grade, and only Elders would possess a Profound Grade Spirit Tool.
To her surprise, Ling Yangping was wearing a High-Grade Profound Spirit Tool!
Ling Yangping laughed: “No matter how many talismans you have, they can’t harm me in the slightest.”
“Moreover, my talismans are even stronger!”
As soon as he finished saying “stronger,” a violent explosion sounded from Qin Feilong’s body. Thick smoke billowed up, dust settled, and visibility was lost.
With such power, let alone an early Golden Core cultivator, even a late Golden Core cultivator would likely be dead or injured.
Qin Du’s eyes widened in rage: “Long’er!”
“You! You!” Qin Du was furious and coughed up a mouthful of blood:
“You are trying to kill people! You want the quota, we will give it to you! Why do you have to harm my son’s life! You…”
Even Ming Zhaoshuang couldn’t help but stand up upon hearing the sound of the explosion.
She had initially thought that the few sentences in the book that vaguely described these events were just words, and she looked down on Qin Feilong, thinking of him as just a “cheater.”
But when she witnessed all this with her own eyes, she realized that these matters of life and death were never just superficial words.
The Heavenly Thunder she endured when she formed her Golden Core had indeed made her wish for death, the dragon she saw in the temple was truly on its last breath, and the harm Qin Feilong was currently facing was also real.
“Uncle Qin, Senior Brother Qin, he’s fine, he’s fine, he still has a move left.”
Seeing Qin Du almost losing control of his emotions, Ming Zhaoshuang hurriedly comforted him.
However, Sect Master Bixia and Sect Master Lingxiao were still making sarcastic remarks from the side.
Sect Master Bixia: “No, Old Qin, the competition arena is dangerous, so some casualties are normal, right?”
Sect Master Lingxiao:
“Sect Master Qin, my son was indeed a bit heavy-handed. But it’s also true that your son is too weak. The competition didn’t say talismans couldn’t be used, and your son used them too. Moreover, my son is just a bit stronger.”
As they spoke, the disciples of the Bixia Sect and the Lingxiao Sect burst into laughter and chattered amongst themselves.
The disciples of the Ao Tian Sect, on the other hand, had ashen faces and were filled with righteous indignation.
“The Lingxiao Sect is truly too overbearing!”
“This is clearly an intentional killing! He clearly knew the power of this talisman!”
“Martial competitions have always ended when one concedes, his attack is truly vulgar and shameless!”
…….
The disciples of the Ao Tian Sect all clenched their long swords, glaring at the Lingxiao Sect with indignation. Even Fei Changxiu, who had never openly confronted Qin Feilong, couldn’t help but grit his teeth and say:
“This is too much! Too much! After this battle, our Ao Tian Sect will be irreconcilable with the disciples of the Lingxiao Sect!”
“Two Sect Masters… cough, cough,”
Suddenly, a voice rang out.
From the center of the explosion, Qin Feilong struggled to support himself with his sword, saying:
“I don’t seem to be dead yet, nor have I lost, have I?”
“So what if you haven’t lost? Do you think you can still defeat me in your current state?”
Ling Yangping smiled, conjuring a cluster of flames with his spiritual power in his palm.
“Stop fighting, stop fighting.”
Seeing that Qin Feilong was not dead, Qin Du was overjoyed: “We concede, we don’t want any quota, just stop fighting.”
He was truly scared. What was the honor of the Ao Tian Sect worth compared to these two beastly sects, who would truly kill their disciples.
Ming Zhaoshuang, however, held him back and said, “Uncle Qin, don’t get agitated. Believe in Senior Brother Qin, and also believe in the next generation of your Ao Tian Sect.”
Qin Feilong glanced at his father’s appearance, chuckled, shook his head, and popped a pill into his mouth, saying:
“Senior Brother Ling, you’ve used up your trump cards, but mine haven’t been revealed yet.”
