Chapter 43
Invincible Level Up Chapter 43: Master Level
In the central square, more and more people were gathered and the volume of their conversations became louder . They were all discussing who would become the winner in this year’s gathering . Many looked upon Xiao Rufeng since he got the first place for four consecutive years . Now that he was a rank six spirit formation realm, him getting the first again would be common sense .
Some cultivators opened a gambling post . Except Xiao Rufeng’s 1:1 odds, others were much higher . Qin Tian’s was as high as 1:8 as none saw him as Xiao Rufeng’s opponent .
Qin Tian did not care about all those . He sat quietly and waited for the event to start .
After half a quarter of an hour, Zhao Clan’s patriarch Zhao Wudi coughed lightly and walked towards the platform to commence the start of the event . As Qinhe city’s strongest great clan, only he had the rights to announce the start and this made the other patriarchs unhappy .
The partic.i.p.ants of the fights were chosen by random .
There were more than fifty great clans, with each sending three representatives . Thus making the number of partic.i.p.ants more than a hundred and sixty .
However, after a few rounds of eliminations, only some would be left .
Before the start of the event, a thunderous sound of a drum could be heard rumbling, causing the blood of people to boil with excitement and antic.i.p.ation……
Around eighty disciples walked onto the platform and picked out a small paper strip from inside a box, then walked towards the judge to report the name .
The platform was separated into ten big zones to save time . During the first three rounds, partic.i.p.ants would be eliminated rapidly . Only after the third round would the ten zones combined into one .
Those that could crash their way through the third round would not be below the realm of spirit formation and those partic.i.p.ants should not be fighting in the small zone .
Among the ten chosen to go up first, Qin Tian was in the second group .
The first round of fight would not have much suspense, and some warrior realm cultivators were eliminated quickly .
“Next, Yang Shen against Qin Tian . ”
The referee announced . Qin Tian walked up and gave Yang Shen an indifferent smile .
“Qin Tian, pardon me . ”
Yang Shen said coldly . At the same time, his body flashed and Qigong emitted out from his body . A formless pressure was exuded out and he unsheathed his sword and rushed towards Qin Tian……
For the first opponent Qin Tian met to be a spirit formation realm cultivator, one should wonder whether Qin Tian’s luck was too good or too bad . Two third of the partic.i.p.ants were in the warrior realm, and the first he met was a spirit formation cultivator . Nevertheless, he laughed, “It should be me who say that . ”
Qin Tian did not release any Qigong or gave out any pressure at all . He was calm as if he was non-existent……
At that moment, just as Yang Shen’s sword was about to pierce through Qin Tian, both his hands moved . No Qigong was used, but the speed of the fists was fast, so fast that even Yang Shen could not react to it . Before he could block it with his sword, he felt a burning pain on his chest .
“Bang . ”
He flew more than forty feets away and landed heavily on the ground, unable to move .
Qin Tian stood on the platform proudly, as still as a mountain .
It was as if nothing had actually happened .
The noisy venue suddenly became tranquil, and Qin Tian was looked at by many in shock . To defeat a Spirit Formation realm cultivator in one move, furthermore without using Qigong and could already attack with such powerful might, a normal punch actually contained such great power .
The most critical point was Qin Tian’s aura . It was placid, just like water .
A while later, the referee announced, “Qin Tian victory . Advances to the next round . ”
The originally tranquil venue started bustling with noises .
“To end a fight with one move . Outrageous!”
“That kid, Yan Sheng is at the spirit formation realm with power that is definitely not low . But never could I have imagined that Qin Tian would end the fight with a punch!”
“A genius in Qinghe City five years ago, who became a trash for five years . Could he once again regain the t.i.tle he lost?”
……
While walking down the platform, Qin Tian found a few pairs of eyes glaring at him from amidst the crowd . They were filled with killing intent but Qin Tian remained collected, revealing no weakness to them .
That blow was just a show . The following matches would be the real deal .
Xiao Rufeng, I hoped you wouldn’t run into any mishap before our match .
Once Qin Tian returned to his seat, the Qin disciples were all secretly filled with excitement; Qin Tian won! As if they were showered in glory, the disciples had their chests puffed out . Four long years, their clan was ranked the lowest among the four great clans in the tournament . However, perhaps this year the tables had turned .
“Not bad, not bad . A mere punch to end the match against an opponent in the spirit formation realm . Your punch has already reached the highest attainable level . ” Qin Zhantian squinched his eyes as he smiled . Seeing Qin Tian’s unsurprised face, a bit of confidence was added to the thought of Qin clan getting first place this year .
On the other hand, both Qin Kuang and Qin Xiangtian hung a very unnatural smile . They were extremely shocked . Like what Qin Zhantian just said, that punch had already reached the highest attainable level; the level of a master .
At the same time, both surfaced the same thoughts . “This child must not live . ”
In just a few months, from a rank one warrior trash whom everyone ridiculed to a spirit formation rank four . Impossible, even for a genius!
Xiao Rufeng took more than two years to break through to spirit formation rank four whereas he took less than three months .
If this went on, getting rid of him might become more and more difficult .
Qin Xiangtian glared at Qin Tian sinisterly . Now, all he needed was for Xiao Rufeng to pierce his sword into Qin Tian’s heart…
————————
“As expected of him to be able to defeat a spirit formation rank four . ”
Zhao Wudi was amazed and deep down, he thought . “To think the Qin clan had such a monstrous genius!”
“Father, it was him who shamed me . ” Zhao Jiannan was in a bad mood . As he observed Qin Tian, the hatred within him started to manifest in his eyes .
“Young Master, rest a.s.sured; if he were my opponent, I’ll definitely not show any mercy . ” Zhao Yi whispered coldly beside Zhao Jiannan .
Zhao Wudi grunted, “You’re no match for him . Zhao Kong, you’ll definitely be matched against him . And when that time comes, show no mercy and kill him off…”
A pair of red eyes appeared behind Zhao Wudi . Grinning coldly, the Zhao disciple replied, “Yes Sir!”
Zhao Jiannan involuntarily smiled . Since it was Zhao Kong, Qin Tian would definitely die . ”
Concealing his powers for five long years; the Zhao disciple was extremely strong .
That disciple was fine tuned by Zhao Wudi personally for the goal of getting rid of other families’ geniuses . This year, his aim was to get rid of Xiao Rufeng . But after seeing Qin Tian’s display of power, his aim was now diverted to Qin Tian .
For all the repeated humiliation received from the Qin clan because of Qin Tian, killing him is necessary as a warning to the Qin family .
And to let the Qinghe people know that the Zhao family is the number one clan in Qinghe City .
Qin Tian sat quietly on his seat as he waited for his turn . In the half a month of hardship to break through to spirit formation realm, it had given him ample time to comprehend quite a number of things .
And in this very tournament, it’s the best opportunity for him to test them out .
These people here were nothing but stepping stones .
