Evidently, the Great Master also believed that Lu Hao was purely there to cause trouble.
“Go back, the Great Master has already spoken.”
“Hurry up and get out, don’t delay the Prefecture Exam.”
“I never expected Qing Xuan Prefecture’s Senior Apprentice Brother to be such an ungrateful person.”
Over at Qing Xuan Prefecture, seeing their Senior Apprentice Brother act this way, most of them hung their heads in shame.
Even Song Zhen, who had always been close to Lu Hao, was at a loss for words at this moment.
It wasn’t that he didn’t believe Lu Hao, but this was just too outrageous.
One person fighting an entire Prefecture?
Lu Hao looked at the disbelieving eyes of the people around him and spoke directly,
“Whoever can defeat me, I will voluntarily resign from my position as Qing Xuan Prefecture’s Senior Apprentice Brother and hand it over to him.”
As soon as these words were uttered, the entire venue immediately erupted! Before the crowd could even begin to challenge, the Great Master roared:
“Enough! Lu Hao, get down, I announce the deprivation of Qing Xuan Prefecture’s participation in this Prefecture Exam…”
He wanted to stop Lu Hao from acting recklessly, and at the same time, it was to save his life.
“Wait!”
The Golden Light House Lord spoke, interrupting.
“Lu Hao is, after all, Qing Xuan Prefecture’s Senior Apprentice Brother. A word spoken is a word set in stone, and we should respect his wishes. Gong Yongqi, go and challenge this Senior Apprentice Brother of Qing Xuan Prefecture.”
“Yes, Master!”
Amidst the dense crowd, a figure was slowly walking forward. His expression was calm, and each step seemed to carry an invisible Aura.
When this figure emerged from the crowd, everyone looked over, feeling that this person had an extraordinary Aura. His deep eyes were filled with pressure.
At this moment, these eyes were indifferently staring at Lu Hao, who stood not far in front, revealing a mocking gaze.
Immediately after, a powerful and unparalleled Aura suddenly burst forth from this person!
It was Qi Refining Level Ten!
Everyone around was stunned after sensing Gong Yongqi’s Aura.
He’s at Qi Refining Level Ten right from the start? Qi Refining Level Seven against Qi Refining Level Ten, is there even a need to fight? What the heck are we fighting for?!
“Isn’t this a bit too much bullying?”
Someone whispered.
“That Lu Hao insisted on challenging everyone in the Sect. This matter is his own fault, and he can’t blame others.”
Bai Daoren looked at Gong Yongqi, who was at Qi Refining Level Ten, frowned slightly, and said to Yu Zhuo with displeasure:
“Yu Zhuo, is it not too inappropriate for you to send a Qi Refining Level Ten to fight a Qi Refining Level Seven? I think this matter should just pass. The junior’s arrogant words, we shouldn’t take them seriously.”
“Great Master, just now, this child personally said he would challenge Jin Guang Prefecture’s Disciple. My Disciple is naturally one of the Disciples, so why can’t he challenge him?”
“If today he relies on his status as Qing Xuan Prefecture’s Senior Apprentice Brother to make wild claims at the Prefecture Exam, yet can be exempted from bearing the corresponding consequences, then what is the use of the Sect’s laws?”
Yu Zhuo responded calmly.
“Sigh…”
The Great Master could also tell that Yu Zhuo seemed to want to take this opportunity to retaliate against Ling Tian.
He didn’t even want to give the Great Master any Face.
There was nothing he could do. It was just that Lu Hao was too arrogant, and he was powerless to help!
Gong Yongqi walked up to Lu Hao, his Face full of disdain, as if looking at an idiot, and said:
“Before, I had intended to take Ling Tian as my master, but he never even looked at me properly. Today, he took in a good-for-nothing like you.
Today, I will let Ling Tian see how terrible his judgment is!
Lu Hao, I won’t hold back during our fight later. You’d better pray for yourself.”
Gong Yongqi said this to better accidentally kill Lu Hao during their upcoming fight.
Someone from Jin Guang Prefecture had just come to tell him to pretend to accidentally kill the opponent on the arena.
Lu Hao stood with his hands behind his back, looked at Gong Yongqi, and once again spoke startling words:
“You alone are too weak, not enough to fight. You, you, you, and you, all of you come up! If you can defeat me, you will be the successors of Qing Xuan Prefecture!”
Lu Hao pointed out everyone who had mocked and insulted him in front of the courtyard gate earlier. He wanted to settle it all at once!
“Whoosh!!!”
The entire venue erupted once again.
“I think he’s truly gone mad…”
“Sigh… there’s no saving him… completely unsalvageable…”
The Great Master was also speechless… Fine, you want to court death, do you? Then go ahead and court death!
Yu Zhuo looked at Lu Hao as if he were looking at a dead man, waved his hand, and all the people Lu Hao had pointed out went onto the arena.
One against over a hundred!!!
Lu Hao calmly looked at the over one hundred people.
Gong Yongqi and the others on the opposite side looked at Lu Hao.
Their gazes contained three parts anger and seven parts as if looking at an idiot, and they couldn’t help but burst into fury.
A good-for-nothing dares to look at us with such eyes! Let’s see if you can still open your eyes later!!
Instantly, the Cultivation Technique that a group of people were channeling in their hands became several shades brighter.
The match begins!
As soon as the words fell, Gong Yongqi impatiently rushed over, his Cultivation Technique about to reach its peak.
“Thunder Cloud Flash!”
At this very instant, a purplish-gold lightning bolt suddenly erupted from Gong Yongqi’s hand!
The lightning, like a giant Dragon, surged towards Lu Hao with endless power. Where the lightning passed, the air emitted sharp, piercing whistles.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes were fixed on this soaring lightning!
“This is the killer move of a Yellow Rank Advanced Cultivation Technique, the Thunder Cloud Art! This Gong Yongqi is too ruthless. Qi Refining Level Ten against Qi Refining Level Seven, and he uses a killer move right from the start. This is clearly intended to kill!”
“Hmph! Who told him to be so arrogant? Ending up like this can only be said to be his own fault.”
Lu Hao calmly looked at the incoming attack, without the slightest hint of panic.
In his eyes, this lightning… was slower than a snail crawling.
He didn’t make any counter-strategy, merely mobilized one hundred-thousandth of the power within his body, condensed it in his right hand, and then slowly slapped it out.
This action, in the eyes of the other Disciples, was no different from being insane.
Even Disciples at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection would have to go all out to deal with that killer move. What’s the meaning of you just waving your hand?
Even Song Zhen and a few Qing Xuan Prefecture Disciples, who had always trusted Lu Hao, turned pale.
They couldn’t help but shout:
“Senior Apprentice Brother Lu, be careful!!”
Lu Hao seemed not to hear the surrounding sounds.
Lu Hao remained motionless until the lightning was almost upon him, then he raised his palm and delivered a massive slap.
“Bang”
“Slap”
First, an explosion sounded, then a crisp slap echoed.
Gong Yongqi’s attack was directly dispersed, and Lu Hao’s slap landed squarely on his Face.
In an instant, half of Gong Yongqi’s Face swelled up as if it had been brutally smashed by a heavy hammer.
Blood splattered directly, forming crimson arcs in the air, then scattered everywhere.
His teeth were also knocked out by Lu Hao’s slap, some even embedding deeply into the ground.
Immediately after, his entire body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, soaring dozens of meters before crashing heavily onto the floor.
Gong Yongqi, lying on the ground, was already on his last breath, his body twitching incessantly, each breath appearing very difficult.
His once handsome Face was now disfigured beyond recognition, causing people to feel both pity and fear.
Clearly, he was beyond saving.
Silence! A deathly silence!
