Supreme Dragon Martial Soul-Chapter 273: They’re All Their People!
Chapter 273: Chapter 273: They’re All Their People!
On Ring Seven, Gu Lingfeng and Mo Xiao stood facing each other.
Mo Xiao had a tall and lean figure, his silver gloves shimmering faintly with golden brilliance, clearly a Star-level Treasure.
"You’re the Gu Lingfeng who was promoted to the Outer Sect alongside Luo Cheng despite being a servant disciple? You still dare to associate with Luo Cheng? Looks like breaking your legs last time wasn’t lesson enough for you."
Mo Xiao squinted at Gu Lingfeng, a smirk playing on his lips.
These words instantly darkened Gu Lingfeng’s complexion.
The memory of his legs being broken by Ren Qian and others was a deep humiliation, and he immediately drew his sword, his voice cold:
"Make your move!"
"What, you want to fight me again?"
Mo Xiao raised an eyebrow but quickly his expression turned icy: "Very well! Seems hanging around Luo Cheng has made you forget your place!"
"Last time I only broke your legs. This time, I’ll break both your arms and legs to teach you a real lesson!"
"Arrogant!"
Gu Lingfeng, outraged, leapt into the air, his Treasure Sword emitting sharp Sword Qi, slashing toward Mo Xiao.
The Sword Qi was fierce, the angle devious, fluctuating unpredictably—it seemed impossible to evade. Failure to dodge would lead to a relentless barrage of attacks!
"Petty tricks!"
Mo Xiao sneered, showing no intention of dodging such a cunning strike. Instead, he charged ahead, his gloves flickering ominously, and launched a powerful punch.
Clang!
Sparks flew as the indeterminate Sword Qi was instantly shattered, forcing Gu Lingfeng to stagger back repeatedly.
"This Mo Xiao is no ordinary opponent. Gu Lingfeng should just admit defeat!"
Below the stage, Luo Cheng frowned slightly.
He could see through the combat dynamics at a glance.
Mo Xiao’s speed and strength far surpassed Gu Lingfeng’s. He could even predict and exploit the weaknesses in Gu Lingfeng’s Swordsmanship!
This allowed him to counter with perfect timing, crushing Gu Lingfeng’s seemingly inevitable attack with a single punch.
It was clear—Gu Lingfeng was being completely overwhelmed!
"What! He broke through it!"
Gu Lingfeng looked incredulous.
Mo Xiao stepped forward leisurely, shaking his head: "I thought I might need three moves to defeat you. Now I see, two moves are enough. You pathetic servant disciples who get promoted are just trash unworthy of the rankings."
"You!"
Gu Lingfeng’s face flushed red, and he immediately unleashed his Five-star Martial Soul.
"Extreme Wind Chaotic Shadow!"
With a roar, Gu Lingfeng pushed his strength to the limit, slashing diagonally!
Slash—!
The cold Sword Qi seemed to manifest as a chilling gale, enveloping Mo Xiao from every angle.
"Hah!"
Mo Xiao smirked with disdain and also released his Martial Soul—a black rock glowing with six radiant stars.
Clenching his fists, he punched straight forward down the middle path.
Boom!
The ferocious Fist Power tore apart the piercing Sword Qi. The burst of force sent Gu Lingfeng retreating in shock, almost spitting blood.
"I admit..."
The punch made Gu Lingfeng realize the disparity between them; he knew victory was impossible and intended to admit defeat.
Suddenly, a drastic turn occurred.
Mo Xiao’s eyes flashed with murderous intent as he accelerated.
The two were already close, and before Gu Lingfeng, prepared to surrender, could react, Mo Xiao seized his throat with one hand.
"Urgh..."
Gu Lingfeng’s remaining words were choked off.
"Did I give you permission to admit defeat?"
A cruel smile spread across Mo Xiao’s face. "I said I’d break your arms and legs. In Crown Prince Hall, we always keep our word!"
With that, Mo Xiao swung his leg sideways.
Crack! Crack!
The sound echoed as both of Gu Lingfeng’s legs shattered instantly.
Then, Mo Xiao twisted his wrist, grabbing Gu Lingfeng’s arms and wrenching fiercely.
Crack!
The sickening sound of bones breaking filled the air as Gu Lingfeng’s arms contorted unnaturally.
"Aaaah!"
It was only then Gu Lingfeng truly felt the pain and let out a bloodcurdling scream.
Bam!
Having shattered Gu Lingfeng’s limbs, Mo Xiao finally discarded him like a broken sack, tossing him off the ring!
"Gu Lingfeng!"
Luo Cheng, who had been closely watching, moved like lightning to catch Gu Lingfeng, quickly feeding him a Healing Elixir before looking up at Mo Xiao on the ring.
Mo Xiao stood tall and smug, looking down at Luo Cheng with a twisted grin:
"Don’t glare at me like that. You won’t fare much better than him! This is the fate of those who dare cross Crown Prince Hall!"
Luo Cheng’s gaze turned icy, the raging killing intent within him causing his Flame Trace Sword to tremble slightly.
"Hmph!"
At that moment, a cold snort resonated from the stands.
Chen Xuan the Elder stood, his overwhelming aura like a mountain, angrily rebuking:
"Mo Xiao! Fellow disciples sparring, yet you strike so viciously! Do you take the rules of the sect for nothing!"
Under the Elder’s imposing presence, Mo Xiao’s face paled.
Then, Qin Yun, the Outer Sect Great Elder sitting nearby with an air of scholarly refinement, chuckled lightly:
"Elder Chen Xuan, there’s no need for anger. Blade and fist have no eyes; injuries during Martial Arts competitions are inevitable. Such trials will better prepare them for growth. Flowers raised in a greenhouse will never withstand the storm; they are doomed to wither eventually. Suffering now is better than dying later."
"The Great Elder speaks true."
Before Qin Yun’s voice faded, other Elders echoed their agreement.
Chen Xuan frowned slightly.
Qin Yun was aligned with Crown Prince Hall, and furthermore, all thirteen judges presiding over this event belonged to Crown Prince Hall.
Though he expected such favoritism, he hadn’t anticipated such blatant partiality.
Hmph!
Chen Xuan sat back heavily, his mind filled with concern for Luo Cheng.
The arrangements clearly weren’t targeting only Gu Lingfeng but were aimed directly at Luo Cheng!
Ring Seven.
"Mo Xiao wins!"
The judge announced the results, turning a blind eye to Mo Xiao’s deliberate brutality.
Watching this, Ren Xiaoguang sneered triumphantly.
Their meticulous planning for Luo Cheng’s demise in the Outer Sect tournament was falling into place.
Not only did they have Qin Yun personally overseeing the tournament, but all thirteen judge Elders belonged to Crown Prince Hall too.
"Luo Cheng, you’re surely finished this time!"
Ren Xiaoguang’s gaze at Luo Cheng twisted with malice.
On the ring, Mo Xiao, having heard the outcome, looked mockingly at Luo Cheng:
"Go tend to his injuries quickly, or he might really become a cripple."
Hearing this, Luo Cheng’s expression remained unnervingly calm.
At this moment, Chen Lingyu and Yuan Zhilan rushed forward.
"Gu Lingfeng!"
Seeing Gu Lingfeng’s devastated state, both were visibly startled.
"Yuan Zhilan, take Gu Lingfeng for healing," Luo Cheng instructed.
"Understood!"
Yuan Zhilan nodded.
Before leaving, Gu Lingfeng mustered his remaining strength and warned:
"Luo Cheng, be extremely careful. They’re targeting you! It might be best to withdraw from the competition." free𝑤ebnovel.com
Patting Gu Lingfeng’s shoulder, Luo Cheng replied, "I’ve implicated you. Don’t worry, I’ll avenge you."
His tone was calm, but his words sent a chill through Chen Lingyu and the others.
Avenge?
In these circumstances, seeking revenge on Crown Prince Hall!
Back at their seats, Chen Lingyu tried persuading him:
"Junior Brother, all the judges, including Great Elder Qin Yun, are in Crown Prince Hall’s pocket! Excessive stubbornness will only lead to disaster—sometimes retreating means survival. You should endure for now!"
