Chapter 143: Entering the Finals
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
w.a.n.g Hui stood up in the spectator stands.
He was shocked by Su Mo’s strength.
Su Mo had killed a martial artist at Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm with one punch!
Even though his opponent was only in the early stage of Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm, the ability to kill him with one punch was very close to that of the top 10 Outer Gate disciples.
w.a.n.g Hui was shocked. It seemed that Su Mo’s claim that he could enter the top 10 of the Outer Gate this year might be true.
Elder Wei finally smiled and nodded lightly.
Luo Huan sat in the spectator stands with the same look of shock in her eyes.
At that moment, almost everyone’s eyes were trained on Su Mo.
Ling Muchen was the number three disciple of the Outer Gate, Fei Kuang was number five, Lu Shaoyun was number six, Mei Ling was number eight, and Gu Zhan was number 10.
These disciples also revealed a look of interest.
The ability to kill an early-stage Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm martial artist placed him in the top 30 of the Outer Gate.
There were at least a couple hundred disciples in the entire Outer Gate who were at Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm.
So, being among the top 30 was a good reason to be proud.
Su Mo stepped out of the fighting ring and went to Li Feng’s side.
At that moment, Li Feng was being held in Niu Xiaohu’s arms, expressionless and having no light in his eyes.
Niu Xiaohu and Zhou Xin were also both silent and sullen.
Su Mo looked closely at Li Feng’s injuries and his heart immediately sank.
His elixir field was completely shattered, and his four limbs were completely broken.
The tall, young man from the Sky Alliance was very cruel and had left no room for his recovery.
Su Mo frowned deeply.
Broken bones could be fixed
However, his elixir field was an issue.
If his elixir field was only cracked, there were elixirs on Gale Island that could fix that, but Li Feng’s elixir field was completely broken and had no hope of recovery!
“Xiaohu, take Li Feng away from here!” said Su Mo to Niu Xiaohu with a sigh.
Niu Xiaohu did not say anything but only nodded. He then took Li Feng and left the outer square along with Zhou Xin.
Su Mo turned around and looked at the group of Sky Alliance disciples with killing desire in his eyes.
“Su Mo, it’s better to have tolerance. Control yourself!”
Upon seeing Su Mo’s expression, Luo Qianfan reminded him with a frown.
He did not want Su Mo to cause any conflict with the Sky Alliance.
Otherwise, this would be the end of him before he even had the chance to grow.
Su Mo did not say anything. He just stood there silently.
Although his expression was peaceful, there was an icy killing desire in his heart.
“Sky Alliance?”
“I won’t stop until I make you pay in blood.”
Su Mo did not have any fear. Before the Outer Disciple Compet.i.tion began, he had already developed a sixth Spiritual Spiral.
His cultivation was at Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm, and compared to the physical force at Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm, he had six Spiritual Spirals, and therefore, six times the combat strength.
Combined with his level three cultivation method and martial arts techniques, Su Mo did not believe that anyone could stop him.
After Su Mo killed the Sky Alliance disciple with one punch, the First Elder sitting in the spectators stands looked very upset.
A genius disciple at Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm was killed in the blink of an eye!
However, since both sides had agreed, the First Elder could not say anything.
“Let the Outer Disciple Compet.i.tion continue!” said the First Elder after a while.
Soon after, the various fighting rings resumed their battles.
Time flew by quickly throughout the battles.
In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.
Group six, Su Mo’s group, had already entered the eighth round of battles and eliminated over 1,000 people.
During these rounds, Su Mo was peerless—his opponents did not stand a chance against him.
Su Mo was on a roll and even surpa.s.sed Lu Shaoyun, who was a top 10 disciple of the Outer Gate.
However, Su Mo did not encounter any Sky Alliance members.
There were only 16 people left in group six, and if six more people were eliminated, Su Mo could enter the top 100 and go into the finals.
“Group six, go into the fighting ring and begin the mixed battle!” said the deacon. “Anyone who leaves the fighting ring will be automatically eliminated, and the remaining 10 men will progress to the finals!”
“Joint attacks are not allowed, only one-on-one battles. You may go on stage now!”
The remaining people in group six immediately stepped into the fighting ring and Su Mo went up as well.
Mixed combat was the easiest and fastest way to compete.
Although individual battles among the 16 people would be more fair, it would also take up too much time.
Mixed battles were much simpler.
The 16 people spread out in the fighting ring, and as the Deacon yelled, “Begin!”, their bodies all exploded with Qi.
The remaining contestants were all experts at Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm.
The weaker disciples had all been eliminated in the previous rounds.
However, no one attacked, but instead, everyone watched one another cautiously.
Lu Shaoyun stood in the fighting ring in a blue robe with a calm expression.
Su Mo did not attack either and just quietly stood in the fighting ring.
After some time, someone finally could not wait any longer.
A young man with thick brows took the initiative to attack the person next to him, and the two people immediately began battling crazily with endless explosions.
After the two men began fighting, other battles instantly followed.
Most people found their opponents, however, everyone’s abilities were very similar, and it was hard to determine a winner in such a short amount of time.
“Huff!”
Suddenly, a young man in gray appeared in front of Su Mo and swung his palm.
This young man in gray was probably in the late stages of Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm, close to the Peak Lv 6, and he was very strong.
His palm was strong enough to move mountains.
“Admit defeat!” yelled the young man in gray.
“You’re mistaken!”
The young man in gray was met by a fist, a fist that broke through all time and s.p.a.ce.
Su Mo swung his fist forcefully at the young man in gray.
Boom!
As the fist and palm met, the young man in gray was immediately struck by an indescribable force.
Swoos.h.!.+
The young man in gray flew out as quickly as he had flown in. He was sent back hundreds of meters and fell outside of the fighting ring with a nasty expression.
Su Mo’s move was very calculated and did not injure him.
“He still did it in one punch!”
The disciples in the ring who had not yet attacked were shocked.
Then, they did not focus on Su Mo anymore and began to search for opponents among the other contestants.
Su Mo was too powerful for them to grapple with, so they could only pick weaker disciples to attack.
Therefore, after Su Mo defeated the young man in gray, no one challenged him again.
He stood casually in the ring and waited quietly for the others to finish their battles.
Of course, Lu Shaoyun had even less trouble than Su Mo.
From start to finish, no one dared to attack Lu Shaoyun.
The t.i.tle of top 10 Outer Gate disciple was not a hollow one.
“Your name is Su Mo, right? You’re quite strong!” Lu Shaoyun said to Su Mo with a smile.
“You’re too kind!” said Su Mo calmly with a nod.
“Well! Well!”
Lu Shaoyun said carelessly with a smile, “However, I meant to say that if you enter the finals, you will definitely die!”
“Huh?”
Su Mo frowned and asked coldly, “Are you a member of the Sky Alliance too?”
“No,” said Lu Shaoyun, shaking his head. “I just wanted to remind you, in case you get destroyed in the finals.”
Lu Shaoyun did not like the Sky Alliance’s arrogant and domineering manner, so he reminded Su Mo out of good will.
“Thanks for the advice. I have my own plans.”
After learning that Lu Shaoyun was not a member of the Sky Alliance, Su Mo’s expression softened, and he nodded.
Lu Shaoyun could tell from Su Mo’s expression that he had disregarded his advice. Lu Shaoyun shook his head inwardly.
“Do you know how powerful Nangong Linjue is?” asked Lu Shaoyun after a while.
“I know, he’s number one in the Outer Gate!” Su Mo answered.
Lu Shaoyun shook his head and said, “You only know that he’s number one, but you have no idea how powerful he actually is!”
“Let me explain it to you this way.”
Lu Shaoyun sighed lightly.
“I’m number six in the Outer Gate, and I can’t even withstand three rounds with him!”
Lu Shaoyun was not being self-deprecating.
Everyone was familiar with Nangong Linjue’s abilities.
“He’s that powerful?”
Su Mo was shocked to hear this.
“Even Lu Shaoyun, who is number six, can’t even withstand three rounds with Nangong Linjue?”
“Is Nangong Linjue really that powerful?”
However, Su Mo was only slightly surprised because he was very confident in himself.
Following the two men’s conversation, the battle in the fighting ring came to a close.
Six contestants were eliminated out of the ring.
There were exactly 10 people, including Su Mo and Lu Shaoyun, standing in the fighting ring.
“The elimination matches for group six are concluded. You 10 have progressed into the finals, which will be held tomorrow!” said the deacon. Then, Su Mo and the others all left the fighting ring.
At that moment, some other groups’ battles were still going on.
However, Su Mo was not in the mood to continue watching the matches and immediately left the square.
The Sky Alliance disciples watched him leave with cold glares.
