Chapter 96: The Top Ten Outer Disciples
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
“Kill…!”
The many tragic deaths of the Sky Alliance disciples caused a burning murderous desire in the remaining disciples.
As part of the powerful Sky Alliance, it was always them who killed. Who would dare kill them?
Whoosh! Whoosh!
With a flurry of noises in the air, more and more disciples of the Sky Alliance flew and entered the fighting ring to join the battle.
They were all Lv 4 Spiritual Martial Realm martial artists!
Among the audience watching Su Mo’s fight against Shen Qing today, Lv 4 martial artists were considered to have the highest cultivation.
Those at the Lv 5 or even Lv 6, regarded as the top talented outer disciples, wouldn’t even think of watching a fight at this level.
“You people from the Sky Alliance are truly shameless. Any fight on the Decisive Struggle Stage is supposed to be a fair game. Now that I defeated one you, you’re all ganging up to kill me.”
Snorting in anger, he moved like a lightning flash and jumped off the fighting ring.
He had to back off or he would die a miserable death here.
At the moment, there were more than 20 disciples of the Sky Alliance who wanted to fight him and all were Lv 4 Spiritual Martial Realm martial artists.
Even if he was powerful and strong, it was impossible for him to win against all these people.
Though he killed a dozen people with lower martial strength in a short time just then, the frequent wave-like attacks caught him off guard and caused him some injuries.
If not for the brilliance of Shadow Steps allowing him to dodge the attack in time, he would already be seriously injured if not dead.
“You’re going nowhere!”
The disciples of the Sky Alliance cried in anger as they jumped off the fighting ring one by one and went after Su Mo.
“Haha! Are you trying to kill me? Ridiculous!”
Wind lifting him from under his feet, he moved so quickly that his figure was a blurry mess. In the blink of an eye, he had already slipped out of the Decisive Struggle Hall.
“Damn it!”
“Don’t let him get away!”
“Get him…!”
The disciples of the Sky Alliance chased after Su Mo in a line, continuously yelling in rage.
A large number of Outer Disciples within the hall also hurried out. There was going to be a good show and they didn’t want to miss it.
Whoosh!
When he stepped out of the hall, Su Mo saw Feng Zilan leading a group of people over to the hall. They blocked his escape path.
Everyone in the group wore ice-cold expressions with thick air enveloping them. It wasn’t hard to see they were all excellent martial artists at the Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm.
The group was led by a young elegant man in blue with sharp eyebrows and eyes that gleamed like stars.
“You’re Su Mo?”
The young man glanced at Su Mo, his voice cold.
“Oh God, it’s Senior Brother Yi Xiaoguang!”
“Senior Brother Yi Xiaoguang, one of the top ten Outer Disciples! He ranks the seventh!”
“Senior Brother Yi is here! Su Mo’s done for!”
Many Outer Disciples were shocked to see the young man.
They started looking at Su Mo with sympathy.
Su Mo frowned when he heard what the crowd was saying.
This young man was the seventh among the Top Ten Outer Disciples?
It was said that all of the Top Ten Outer Disciples were excellent martial artists who had reached the Peak Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm. There was no way he could defeat any of them.
He didn’t respond and there was vigilance in his eyes.
“Cheers to Senior Brother Yi!”
The rest of the disciples of the Sky Alliance were so thrilled to see Yi Xiaoguang that they couldn’t wait to step forward and salute him.
“Senior Brother Yi, this is Su Mo. He’s the one who killed more than ten of our Sky Alliance brothers. What he has done can never be forgiven!”
One Sky Alliance disciple chimed in.
Yi Xiaoguang nodded, coldness creeping into his eyes. He said indifferently, “Su Mo, end your own life!”
Yi Xiaoguang’s voice was overbearing as if nobody could refuse his order.
“End my own life?”
Su Mo squinted and sneered. “Why would I do that?”
“Only death awaits anyone who kills one of us!”
Yi Xiaoguang’s expression was one of pride. He shook his head and said, “I don’t want to kill you so you end this yourself! I’ll leave your corpse intact!”
“If I say no?”
Su Mo sounded solid and firm.
“You don’t have that say in front of me!”
Yi Xiaoguang shook his head and said haughtily, “You have 40 seconds to decide before I make my move.”
“According to the sect rules of Gale Island, disciples are strictly forbidden from killing each other. You dare kill me?” Su Mo asked.
“Haha!”
Yi Xiaoguang ridiculed and his expression overflowing with arrogance. “There is no difference between ending your life and killing an ant, so Sect would do nothing to me even I kill you!”
Gale Island thought highly of him as he was one of the Top Ten Outer disciples.
Even if he actually killed Su Mo, they wouldn’t punish him too severely for just a mere Outer Disciple.
“Kill myself? Impossible!”
Su Mo sneered, sighing coldly. “Even if I’m to die, I’d rather die in a battle with dignity rather than killing myself like a coward!”
“Fine! I’ll help you!”
Yi Xiaoguang nodded flatly.
He cupped his hand into a fist and there was genuine Qi circling around it, shooting out a dazzling light.
Su Mo’s expression was immeasurably solemn. An attack coming from a martial artist at the Peak Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm should be incredibly powerful!
Besides, for the Top Ten Outer Disciples to distinguish themselves from thousands of other Outer Disciples, their strength must overwhelmingly exceed those of the average Lv 6 martial artists who had reached their Peak.
“I only used 30 percent of my strength in this punch, but that’s enough to kill you!”
Laughing heartily, Yi Xiaoguang gradually lifted his fist and hurled his punch at his opponent with a booming sound.
A thick white beam of light emerged from his fist like a bursting sacred ray and was thrown at Su Mo as quick as a flash of lightning.
Hum! Hum!
Wherever the white light beam touched, space trembled and was seemingly about to collapse. The light beam was full of destructive force.
Huff!
Su Mo shouted when he saw the light beam was about to hit himself and his four Spiritual Spiral began spinning furiously. The radiance coming off his long sword emerged brilliantly to directly meet his opponent’s light beam.
“Final Hit of Heavenly Wind!”
Boom!
When the sword radiance hit the light beam, a huge explosion shook the entire place.
The destructive shock waves from the explosion swept the place, causing some of the weaker disciples to take a step backward and vomit blood.
Pfft!
Being the target, there wasn’t any way for Su Mo to block the light beam. He took the hit squarely on his body and was flung hundreds of meters away. He coughed out blood that rose from within him like a speeding arrow.
Thud!
He landed heavily on the ground. He tasted something in the back of his throat and once again spat a mouthful of blood.
At the moment, his face was a pale as a sheet of white paper. His shirt had always been torn into pieces from the explosion, exposing his bronze skin.
“Su Mo!”
“Senior Brother Su Mo!”
Li Feng and Niu Xiaohu were frightened and about to step forward to help Su Mo back on his feet.
Su Mo waved his hand at them, stopping them in their tracks. He then struggled to get up.
Cough! Cough! Cough!
Su Mo couldn’t stop coughing and the blood kept trickling down from his mouth.
He was heavily injured and his internal organs were damaged. In fact, he wouldn’t have survived without his solid and strong body.
“So that’s all a Top Ten Outer Disciple got!”
Su Mo held his head up and looked directly at Yi Xiaoguang, wearing a contemptuous smile on his face.
The latter raised his eyebrows and said with surprise, “Not bad! Not bad at all! It’s a miracle someone with the cultivation of the Peak Lv 2 Spiritual Martial Realm can take 30 percent of my fist strength and still live!
“Still, you’re going to hell today!”
“Bring it on!”
Su Mo shouted loud, standing straight with pride and dignity.
“Die!”
Yi Xiaoguang bawled out, once again firing his white light beam. The beam made a hole in the sky and his punch this time was twice as powerful as his previous one.
If there was no interference, this strike would definitely send Su Mo to his deathbed.
Su Mo sighed silently as he stared at the white light that was about to strike him. Why was the person still not showing up?
