Chapter 3549: You’re the Purple-Clad n.o.bleman?!
“What a surprise! The seventh Guardian came to personally receive us!”
Many people were surprised by the appearance of such a prominent figure from the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
“The seventh Guardian is a powerful Seven Star G.o.d of War. He single-handedly defeated a celestial who had just become a Seven Star G.o.d of War and a top Six Star G.o.d of War who joined forces to deal with him.”
Everyone’s eyes lit up with excitement as they looked at Meng Shang and fervently discussed the battle that made him famous in the Nine Serenities Battlefield.
Meng Shan swept his gaze across the crowd and those who were dressed in purple before he said, “Those who are dressed in purple, please leave. The Heavenly Dao Alliance has no intention of accepting impostors. Do you think you’ll become as strong as the Purple-clad n.o.bleman just because you’re wearing purple?” He sneered at the end of his words.
The expressions of the people dressed in purple changed drastically. They regretted not listening to the blue-clad young man’s words earlier and changing their clothes.
At this time, a purple-clad young man stepped forward and reluctantly said, “Seventh Guardian, it’s not my intention to pretend to be the Purple-clad n.o.bleman. I’ve always dressed in purple even before he appeared. I don’t think it’s fair that I’m not even allowed to take the test just because of my color preference…”
With that, the others followed suit.
“Seventh Guardian, you’ve misunderstood me. I’ve always worn purple as well, and it’s not my intention to pretend to be the Purple-clad n.o.bleman.”
“Seventh Guardian, just because I’m wearing purple, it doesn’t mean I’m pretending to be the Purple-clad n.o.bleman!”
“Seventh Guardian, it feels like you’re stripping away my rights to wear my favorite color!”
“Seventh Guardian, it’s just a coincidence. I’m not pretending to be the Purple-clad n.o.bleman!”
One by one, those who were dressed in purple defended themselves and their choice to wear purple. All of them denied pretending to be the Purple-clad n.o.bleman. They were giving it their all to convince Meng Shan to let them take the test to join the Heavenly Dao Alliance. After all, if they could not take the test now, they would have to wait another year. It was still a question if they could even survive that long in the Nine Serenities Battlefield. None of them wanted to leave the battlefield if possible since they could gain experience here, and if they were lucky enough, they might even obtain treasures from their opponents. Hence, it was not surprising that they were doing all they could to prevent themselves from being barred from taking the test to join the Heavenly Dao Alliance.
“Was I not clear with my words?” Meng Shan said expressionlessly as he glanced at the purple-clad people, “You have ten breaths to leave. I kill those of you who are still here after ten breaths.”
The expressions of the purple-clad changed drastically. They no longer hesitated and fled one after another.
Meanwhile, the blue-clad young man standing next to Duan Ling Tian said mockingly, “Aren’t you leaving? Do you think the seventh Guardian is joking? Young man, let me remind you that the seventh Guardian is a man of his words!”
At this time, everyone’s attention was focused on Duan Ling Tian. He was too inconspicuous with his purple robes, after all. Moreover, after Meng Shang had spoken, about 100 purple-clad people had fled. How could he not be inconspicuous now that he was the onl one left in this place who was wearing purple?
“There are only four breaths left. Do you think he’ll leave?”
“Of course. I bet you he’ll leave as soon as time is almost up. However, what’s the point of doing something like that?”
“He’s just trying to show his bravery to Guardian Meng Shan in a last bid to join the Heavenly Dao Alliance.”
After ten breaths had pa.s.sed, Duan Ling Tian still stood in his spot.
“Time’s up!”
“He’s going to die!”
“He’s really unafraid of death!”
At this time, everyone, including the two middle-aged men standing behind Meng Shan, looked at Duan Ling Tian sympathetically.
Meng Shan’s expression was frosty as he stared at Duan Ling Tian. He said, “Very well. It’s been a long time since someone has disregarded my words. Since you have a death wish, I’ll help you fulfill your wis.h.!.+”
As soon as Meng Shan finished speaking, he raised his hand and attacked.
Swoos.h.!.+
A seemingly frozen three-foot-long green saber shot out toward Duan Ling Tian at this moment.
The crowd felt chills running up their spines as they felt the chilling aura of the saber.
“As expected of the seventh Guardian of the Heavenly Dao Alliance. It’s impossible even for ordinary Six Star G.o.ds of War to avoid or withstand this attack…”
“That person will definitely die unless he’s a Six Star G.o.d of War at least!”
“Impossible. Does a Six Star G.o.d of War need to take the recruitment test to join the Heavenly Dao Alliance? The Heavenly Dao Alliance welcomes them, and they can directly join the alliance as long as they pa.s.s the Heart Demon Test.”
Duan Ling Tian felt rather speechless when he heard the hushed discussion in his surroundings. Not only was he unaware that the Heavenly Dao Alliance had extended an invitation to him to join them, but he was also unaware that Six Star G.o.ds of War or those who are stronger can bypa.s.s the recruitment test. He suddenly felt really out of the loop. Nevertheless, he did not move at all when faced with Meng Shan’s attack.
“Is he so weak that he can’t retaliate at all?”
“He’s going to die!”
“Even if he’s a top Six Star G.o.d of War, it’d be difficult for him to attack from such short distance…”
Swoos.h.!.+
When the ice sword was inches away from Duan Ling Tian, everyone thought he was going to die. However, at this moment, he finally moved.
Duan Ling Tian raised his right hand and placed a finger against his glabella. Then, a gray energy shrouded him, blocking and neutralizing Meng Shan’s attack. Following that, he sent out gray energy that swept toward Meng Shan.
“He finally made a move!”
“Heavens! He blocked and neutralized Guardian Meng Shan’s attack with just a finger. He must be a Seven Star G.o.d of War!”
“A Seven Star G.o.d of War? I-Is it possible that h-he’s the Purple-clad n.o.bleman?”
“Is there a need for the Purple-clad n.o.bleman to take the recruitment test to join the Heavenly Dao Alliance? Moreover, the Heavenly Dao Alliance has made it clear that he’s more than welcome to join them. They’re even willing to give him the position of the ninth Guardian of the alliance. You should know that only those who are Seven Star G.o.ds of War at least can be Guardians of the Heavenly Dao Alliance.”
At this time, Duan Ling Tian’s s.p.a.ce sword ray had already appeared in front of Meng Shan. Meng Shan’s eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed and made a move to dispel the attack, “You’re the Purple-clad n.o.bleman?”
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
A freezing wind surged before forming a wall of ice between Meng Shan and Duan Ling Tian.
However, the s.p.a.ce sword ray flashed and suddenly vanished into thin air before reappearing behind the ice wall and continued flying toward Meng Shan.
“The Teleportation Profundity?” Meng Shan’s expression changed slightly. He extended his arm before what looked like an ice pick, which was 10 meters long, appeared in his hand.
At the same time, the temperature in the surroundings dropped drastically. It was as though winter had suddenly arrived.
