Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul

In the rise and fall of the shouting voices, Pei Zhenshan and Mo Nian couldn’t help but exchange a glance, both seeing a helpless wry smile in the other’s eyes.

Before this, they had both thought that Qin Qing’s strength was inferior to theirs, so when Gu Fengxian challenged Qin Qing, the two of them stepped forward one after another, wanting to take on the battle for Qin Qing.

But now, they had come to understand that, once again, they had underestimated Qin Qing’s strength.

This newly advanced junior brother had displayed strength several times, each time refreshing their understanding.

Who would have thought that a newly advanced disciple could have such tremendous strength?

And, whether they admitted it or not, this junior brother’s strength was indeed above their own!

The face of the West Courtyard Disciples might now be this junior brother!

The same thoughts not only surfaced in the hearts of Pei Zhenshan and Mo Nian but also forced all elders of the Great Qian Martial Institute, as well as people like Qin Chang and Xu Fang, to recognize that they had far underestimated Qin Qing.

At this moment, the two most interested in Qin Qing among everyone present were the Third Prince and the Seventh Prince.

The instant Qin Qing showed strength that stood par with Gu Fengxian, these two princes of the current dynasty both abruptly stood up.

Both of them were moved; if they could recruit Qin Qing to their side, to become a guest within their tent, it would undoubtedly lend a tremendous boost to achieving great ambitions.

"This Qin Qing, you say he’s only in the Soul Refinement Realm?" the Seventh Prince asked, somewhat astonished.

"Yes! Qin Qing is indeed still only in the Soul Refinement Realm!" Xu Qingyuan stated truthfully.

"Incredible!" the Seventh Prince exclaimed, "With strength from the Soul Refinement Realm to contend with Gu Fengxian of the Divine Might Realm at its peak, and even up to now, to not show any signs of falling behind!"

"This is a true genius... By the way, this Qin Qing, how is his talent tested?" the Seventh Prince asked again.

"Qin Qing’s talent can be said to be unprecedented in the Great Qian Martial Institute!" Xu Qingyuan spoke again, "He possesses a Ninth Rank Martial Soul, and his aptitude for sensing and Refinement Spiritual Qi is also of Ninth Stars talent!"

"Interesting," the Third Prince couldn’t help remarking, "This is a true genius, isn’t it? Not just within our Great Qian Dynasty, but even if you look across the entire Heavenly Mind Continent, this talent is among the most outstanding, and the future of this youth is promising indeed..."

"The Third Prince speaks true!" At this moment, Linghu Leiyue spoke indifferently, "Qin Qing’s talent goes without saying. But... talent does not represent everything. A true genius also needs to grow to be worthy of the title!"

"Exactly!" Qin Chang echoed, "Geniuses that don’t grow up will soon be forgotten. Many brilliant geniuses have been born in our Great Qian Dynasty, but none of them have truly risen. Without forming a Nascent Soul, they are but fleeting flowers!"

"This Qin Qing... being able to battle against Divine Might Realm individuals like Gu Fengxian and Tu Baihong in the Soul Refinement Realm, I think it’s not because his talent is so impressive. Instead, it’s because he has used some kind of Forbidden Secret Technique!" Shangguan Yong also spoke up at this time, his brows furrowing as he mentioned Qin Qing’s name.

If you were to ask who in this world most wanted to kill Qin Qing, it would probably be Shangguan Yong who ranked first.

Shangguan Yong’s hatred for Qin Qing had long since reached the point of no return.

"Now it seems, his ability to stand equally against Gu Fengxian is, in fact, just the effect of a Forbidden Secret Technique. As time passes, when the negative effects of the Forbidden Secret Technique emerge, this Qin Qing will be like a turtle in a jar!"

Jun Tiance then nodded and said, "The Prime Minister speaks wisely. This Qin Qing is merely relying on some kind of Forbidden Secret Technique. This youth seeks quick success and is recklessly using a secret technique that harms his foundation, so his future achievements will undoubtedly be limited."

...

On the stage.

Qin Qing and Gu Fengxian both retreated simultaneously.

A sense of shock rose in both their hearts.

In Qin Qing’s body, his Qi-Blood surged with an urge to spew blood.

This collision had caused the Spiritual Power in his body to show signs of reversal.

Gu Fengxian, worthy of being the number one disciple of the Great Qian Martial Institute.

His strength alone was incomparable to that of Tu Baihong or Du Sen.

In addition to the attack’s speed and cunning angles, the profound mysteries contained within the assault were far more powerful than anything displayed by Tu Baihong or Du Sen.

"After all, Gu Fengxian is at the peak of the Divine Might Realm, the so-called False Elixir Realm, just one step away from condensing the Golden Core. His cultivation realm is an entire Great Realm above mine!"

"Even with my Dragon Blood Physique, I almost couldn’t withstand it!"

Qin Qing contemplated this silently in his heart.

Meanwhile, Gu Fengxian was experiencing a storm of shock in his own mind.

His successive attacks had been dodged by Qin Qing multiple times, and in the last clash where they faced off head-on, Qin Qing actually held his ground!

Gu Fengxian had no choice but to retract any trace of contempt he had harbored in his heart.

At this moment, he had to admit that he had gravely underestimated this new disciple named Qin Qing.

At least from the collision just now, Qin Qing’s strength was nothing like he had imagined.

"How is this possible? He is just in the Soul Refinement Realm... Soul Refinement Realm, even with the help of a Forbidden Secret Technique, he shouldn’t be this powerful, should he?"

Gu Fengxian was filled with doubts and suddenly remembered his promise to Mu Yunlan to kill Qin Qing, a vow he had guaranteed with absolute certainty, thinking it would be an easy task...

"I can’t drag this out any longer..."

A murderous intent shone in Gu Fengxian’s eyes.

"Qin Qing, die for me!"

Gu Fengxian roared, and the spiritual power around his body surged violently. In an instant, the sky and earth changed colors dramatically, shifting from a snow-filled expanse to a dark night sky.

The night was deep and equally cold, yet there were astonishingly nine moons hanging high above.

Gu Fengxian’s figure flickered, positioning himself amidst the nine moons.

It was as if there were nine Gu Fengxians all charging at Qin Qing simultaneously.

"Nine Moon Slash!"

Seeing this spectacle, many people exclaimed in surprise.

The Nine Moon Slash was a tremendously powerful martial art from the Great Qian Martial Institute, rumored to be at the pinnacle of Earth Level martial techniques.

Even within the Great Qian Martial Institute, one would need to pay a great price for a chance to learn and comprehend it.

Qin Qing’s pupils contracted as he felt the immense killing intent coming from Gu Fengxian.

"This move..."

Qin Qing felt as if nine Gu Fengxians had appeared simultaneously and launched their strongest attack on him at the same time.

"But... that’s impossible!"

Qin Qing was well aware that among the nine Gu Fengxians, only one was real, the others were either illusions or images formed by the convergence of spiritual power.

"One force can break all methods!"

"Azure Dragon Spear, Explosive Flame!"

Qin Qing roared, and the azure bead above his head released a dazzling radiance. Azure flames illuminated the heavens, and at this moment, his spiritual power erupted to its utmost limit!

The ultimate collision.

The outcome would be determined in this very instant!
