Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 82: Didn’t Expect That, Did You?

Shangguan Feixing and others laughed and mocked sarcastically, ridiculing Qin Qing for his overestimation of his own abilities, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Meanwhile, Jiang Ruorong, Qin Shuang, and others stared wide-eyed, their eyes filled with fury, deep concern, and a gleam of hatred...

In addition, many disciples of the Great Qian Martial Institute were also paying attention to this scene...

That included the newly-promoted disciples like Mu Yunlan, Qin Lie, Ouyang Rou, among others.

Beyond that, some older disciples were also watching from a distance this battle that was far too uneven in terms of power.

"Boom!"

However, in the next instant.

A loud explosion sounded!

The flaming giant palm created by Shangguan Yong’s spiritual power shattered thunderously.

One could see that Qin Qing, who had been engulfed by the flames, reappeared in everyone’s view.

The moment his spear slashed at the flaming giant palm, he was sent flying by the raging power.

But in the next moment, the instant he landed backwards, he planted the long spear in the ground, and his feet too hit the ground, under the brutal force of the impact, he, along with his spear embedded in the earth, was pushed, scraping across the ground for dozens of meters.

On the ground lay the long spear and the deep furrows ploughed by Qin Qing’s legs, three deep trenches a few feet in depth!

Qin Qing still stood there, not having fallen, even though his feet were deep in the earth, and even though he was covered in wounds, his eyes still sparkled intensely.

"Shangguan Yong! A Martial Dao Master of the Golden Core Realm? That’s all?"

Qin Qing grinned and fixed his gaze directly on Shangguan Yong.

"Whoosh!"

The crowd in the distance was seething.

"Is that Qin Qing, the top genius of the first day of the Great Qian Martial Institute’s assessment?"

"He actually withstood a strike from a Martial Dao Master? How is that possible?"

"He’s simply a defiant freak; with this kind of strength, he’s invincible among the new disciples!"

"It’s said that during this secret realm trial, he was banished inside the secret realm. I didn’t expect him to be able to come back. Our Great Qian Martial Institute really gained a monster this time!"

"Senior Qin and I are in the same dormitory, and our dorm has been talking about him. We thought he would never come back..."

"It’s a pity... Although Senior Qin has an extraordinary talent, this time, I’m afraid the odds are against him!"

The disciples of the Great Qian Martial Institute discussed heatedly with one another.

The vast majority of them stood on the side of Qin Qing, after all, like them, he was a disciple of the Great Qian Martial Institute.

Meanwhile, Shangguan Yong and these Imperial Court officials and soldiers were considered invaders who had intruded into the Great Qian Martial Institute.

Shangguan Yong was equally shocked in his heart.

"He wasn’t killed?"

Shangguan Yong knew that though he hadn’t used his full strength with that palm strike, he had still unleashed at least sixty to seventy percent of his power.

He had thought that sixty to seventy percent of his power would be enough to crush Qin Qing into pulp.

But, to his surprise, Qin Qing had actually blocked it, and moreover, he seemed to be uninjured...

"How is this possible?"

Shangguan Yong stared at Qin Qing, finding it unbelievable that a martial artist in the Soul Refinement Realm could block his strike which carried sixty to seventy percent of his power, and even seemed to be in good spirits.

"Roar!"

Shangguan Yong advanced once again, with another palm strike!

This time, his Martial Soul manifested, and a massive flame wolf appeared.

The giant wolf head was fierce and frightening, with blazing flames burning in its eyes.

This strike, with an even more formidable presence, turned over the air, creating terrifying waves of energy. The flaming giant palm condensed once more, descending from the sky, crushing down towards Qin Qing from above.

"Bring it on!"

Qin Qing’s eyes glowed red as he roared towards the sky.

Azure flames burned around his body, his Dragon Blood Physique was at its limit of eruption!

"Boom!"

The flaming giant palm fiercely suppressed Qin Qing.

"Rumble..."

The ground shook violently.

The Qiuhai Villa trembled sharply, its surrounding walls collapsed, and immense cracks spread across the ground.

Dust rose into the air.

In the place where Qin Qing had just stood, a giant pit in the shape of a palm imprint appeared, two to three zhang deep.

Qin Qing was suppressed in the pit, lying on the ground, his body soaked in blood.

"Is he dead?"

Everyone fell silent, gazing at Qin Qing as such.

"Disciple!"

Bai Qiuhe roared, wanting to rush over, but was blocked by three fighting Martial Dao Masters.

"Brother!"

Qin Shuang also let out a heart-wrenching cry, tears streaming down incessantly.

The others from the Qin Residence were all filled with sorrow, either silently shedding tears or sobbing with choked voices.

"Boss!"

"Big Brother Qing!"

Gong Yanghe and Ning Nianci both shouted in agony at the same time.

Jiang Ruorong, however, didn’t make a sound, but her eyes were already red, and her whole body trembled as she watched Qin Qing in the deep pit.

"Elder Lin, are you really not going to take action?" Jiang Ruorong said through clenched teeth to the elder beside her.

"This old servant will only protect Miss’s safety. The life and death of others are unrelated to this old servant!" the elder said.

"If Junior Qin encounters misfortune today, Elder Lin, I, Jiang Ruorong, will surely hate you for the rest of my life, definitely!" Jiang Ruorong said with an icy voice.

"Miss Jiang!" Just then, a frivolous voice came.

It was Shangguan Feixing and a few other young men who were walking over.

"Miss Jiang getting so angry, it wouldn’t be because of that Qin Qing, would it?" Shangguan Feixing casually waved the feather fan in his hand, assuming the air of a gentleman and said with a smile, "Actually, there’s no need. That Qin Qing is just a lowly commoner from some minor place! He has no background, no status whatsoever!"

Seeing that Jiang Ruorong didn’t respond, Shangguan Feixing smiled, then continued, "Qin Qing is really not worth your effort, Miss Jiang. He doesn’t deserve it! As for me, Miss Jiang, you can seriously consider it, if you and I were to become Dao companions, it would surely be a match made in heaven..."

"No!" Jiang Ruorong coldly interrupted Shangguan Feixing, "It’s you who doesn’t deserve it!"

Shangguan Feixing’s face turned cold upon hearing Jiang Ruorong’s words.

He felt as if Jiang Ruorong had slapped him in the face mercilessly in front of everyone.

However, when his sharp eyes glanced at the elder standing beside Jiang Ruorong, a tremor ran through his heart.

He knew that Jiang Ruorong’s words might actually be true.

Just this elder beside Jiang Ruorong alone was enough to make the entire Shangguan Clan tremble, and this elder, who referred to himself as an old servant to Jiang Ruorong, undoubtedly indicated that Jiang Ruorong came from a very terrifying family, a family that was definitely not one of the hereditary clans within the Great Qian Dynasty.

Unable to vent his frustration on Jiang Ruorong, Shangguan Feixing sneered coldly, turned around, and directed the soldiers nearby to capture Qin Shuang and the others.

Bai Qiuhe was still restrained by those three Martial Dao Masters at the Golden Core Late Stage, and another three Martial Dao Masters at the Golden Core Late Stage had not engaged in fighting but were vigilantly on guard to prevent any unforeseen events.

On the other side, Qin Qing’s life and death remained unknown after being suppressed in the deep pit by Shangguan Yong’s palm attack. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

The situation seemed to be completely tilted, with the tide having turned.

Many elders and disciples of the Great Qian Martial Institute lamented that the most monstrously talented individual in history had fallen like this...

Shangguan Feixing, with a cold smirk at the corner of his mouth, walked to the edge of the deep pit, looking down at Qin Qing lying at the bottom of the pit embedded in the mud and stones, and couldn’t help but laugh.

Lin Cang, Zuo Siyuan, and others also followed, these enforcers were still quite surprised.

"This Qin Qing, he actually managed to come out from the secret realm, how did he do it?" Lin Cang asked in surprise.

"Could it be that the spatial passage was not completely destroyed?"

"It must be so, otherwise, they couldn’t have possibly returned here..."

These people simply didn’t believe that Qin Qing and the others could return to the Tian Nian Star, back to the Great Qian Dynasty, while the spatial passage was utterly destroyed.

"It’s better that they returned!" Shangguan Feixing scoffed: "To die at the hands of my Shangguan Clan personally will let people understand, do these commoners, like chickens and dogs, dare to challenge the authority of my Shangguan Clan?"

"Bang!"

But!

Just as Shangguan Feixing’s words fell—the earth and stones at the bottom of the pit suddenly exploded, and a figure flew out like a blue flame, heading straight for Shangguan Feixing.

In the blink of an eye, he arrived beside Shangguan Feixing.

"Crack!"

Shangguan Feixing’s neck was immediately gripped tight by the incoming figure.

"Shangguan Feixing, didn’t see this coming, did you?"

The icy voice of Qin Qing sent a chilling coldness rushing from Shangguan Feixing’s feet to his crown...
