Martial God of the Highest Heaven

C9 The Dark Horse



C9 The Dark Horse

"Why?" Yu Hong was not willing to admit defeat. She would never admit defeat to a servant who looked down on anyone.    

    

Wu Di was also very curious. In the past, it was very common for Bai Ze and Mu Lee to pass the test side by side. But in the final battle, this kind of thing usually did not happen side by side.    

    

Everyone was discussing animatedly. It was fine that a servant could stand out in the competition, but his strength seemed to be very strong. Undoubtedly, Wu Di had become a dark horse in everyone's eyes.    

    

Who would be willing to reduce their chances of becoming an outer sect disciple? Therefore, if Yan Angzhi didn't give them an explanation, these people would definitely not give up.    

    

Yan Angzhi put his hand behind his back and said with a solemn expression, "Since you all want to know the answer so badly, then... I don't mind. As a Martial Cultivator, the most important condition is to possess a martial spirit. This kind of thing does not exist physically, but is an illusionary totem that is created based on the different cultivation methods that each person cultivates."    

    

Everyone immediately fell silent when they heard this. Yan Angzhi knew that these people did not know nothing about Martial Spirits. He continued, "There is only one way to reach the peak of a cultivation technique. Both of them have such an expression. It can be seen that their strength is extraordinary. The Seven Star Sect focused on strength. If any one of you refused to accept it, How many of you are capable of defeating the two of them?    

    

These words made the entire arena fall silent. The truth was just as Yan Angzhi had said. Wu Di and Yu Hong's abilities were extraordinary. If they were to separate the two of them and fight against the two of them, how many of them would be able to win? It would really be a question mark.    

    

Yu Hong did not feel happy at all when she heard these explanations. She reached out her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth and stared fiercely at Wu Di. "You annoying bastard. I will remember you. We are not done with this matter. If you and I can pass the selection, I will look for you to fight when the time comes."    

    

"Alright, I will wait." Wu Di was not afraid of the challenge.    

    

In the past, Wu Di had thought that his ability was too weak, but now it was different. When he was fighting Yu Hong just now, he felt like he had finally become stronger.    

    

However, he was also amazed by her ability. A girl who did not seem to have any lethality actually had such a powerful ability. Could this be the difference in talent?    

    

Wu Di had always known that his talent was mediocre. In addition, he did not have a good background. He needed to put in ten times, a hundred times more effort than others in order to achieve something due to the lack of resources.    

    

It was a lie to say that he did not envy geniuses like Meng Bingyao. Not to mention becoming a genius, even if he had half of their talent, it would be a lie to say that he did not envy geniuses like Meng Bingyao. He didn't have to work so hard.    

    

Wu Di secretly encouraged himself. He must become stronger. Only then could he finally reach those goals in his heart, step by step, and become a powerful warrior.    

    

Wu Di had watched the following matches one by one. However, at the end, he was a little absent-minded. As a member of the Seven Star Sect, he knew more about the dangers of the trial than anyone else.    

    

He heard that as long as he entered the trial, he would encounter all kinds of dangers. He only had a chance to become an outer sect disciple in the top six. Otherwise, it would be a waste of this opportunity.    

    

"Dong... Dong..." The melodious sound of the bell rang out, causing one to feel a clear flow enter one's heart and instantly feel refreshed.    

    

Yan Angzhi asked people to carry all the injured people away to treat their injuries. The remaining eight people stood in front of him side by side.    

    

Wu Di noticed that a few of them were injured, but not too badly. It could be seen that they were much stronger than their opponents.    

    

"You are the ones who stand out among the fifty people. I saw the competition just now. The worst among you has already stepped into the early stage of Qi Refinement. This is good. It will help you to adapt to the tedious training faster when you enter the Seven Star Mountain."    

    

Yan Angzhi was kind. Ordinary inner sect disciples wouldn't put these outer sect disciples in their eyes. They would even look down on them when they spoke.    

    

As Yan Angzhi waved his hand, an inner circle disciple walked over with a tray. He placed a plate on the tray with eight pills on it.    

    

The eight of them each took one pill. When it was Wu Di's turn, the excitement in his heart was incomparable. Although this medicinal pill was only a low-grade Huang rank medicinal Healing Pill, if this one was sold, the price was already sufficient to make Wu Di turn from a poor person to a rich person with small assets.    

    

This was not exaggerated. Not high-grade medicinal pills were everywhere, but they did not have much effect on a martial artist's body. But this low-grade yellow-rank medicinal Healing Pill could allow a wounded Qi Condensation martial artist to instantly recover to his optimal condition.    

    

Even amongst the outer court disciples, this thing could be considered a very precious existence. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was difficult to find a thousand gold coins.    

    

The others all swallowed it without any care for it. Even those who stood beside Wu Di wanted to do this to Tiehniu. However, Wu Di quickly grabbed him and stopped him from eating the Healing Pill.    

    

"What are you doing? Is there something wrong with this thing?" Zhao Tiehniu asked in a low voice.    

    

Wu Di saw that no one was paying attention to them, so he said quietly, "You don't seem to be injured. It's a waste to eat this. You have to keep the good stuff at the critical moment, or it will be a waste."    

    

Zhao Tiehniu did not understand, but he knew that Wu Di would not harm him, so he kept the pill close to him.    

    

Yan Angzhi gave the eight of them half an hour to rest, because it was almost dusk after the two rounds of competition. This meant that the selection was coming to an end. Once they passed this trial, they would be able to confirm which six of them would become outer circle disciples. As for the two who were not selected, they could only come back next year.    

    

Wu Di swept his gaze over Bai Ze, Mu Lee and Yu Hong. These three were all powerful people. In his opinion, Zhao Tiehniu, who was by his side, might also be able to pass the trial. What he could not see through the most was a black-clothed youth. On the left side of this young man's face was a totem that looked like a flame, but the pattern was even more complicated. He really couldn't tell what it meant.    

    

However, after so many matches, Wu Di paid the most attention to this young man in black. His name was Ling Qun, and he came from a small village called Mugua Village. If it wasn't for the fact that Ling Qun had also passed the preliminary test with the strength of ten bulls, he might not have paid so much attention to it.    

    

However, the remaining two people weren't simple either. Their strength had already reached the peak of the intermediate stage, and their performance in the arena was also very outstanding. Wu Di secretly analyzed that among these people, he could somewhat win.    

    

The result made him feel a little nervous. In terms of cultivation base, he was actually the weakest among these people. Even Zhao Tiehniu and the girl called Yu Hong had already reached the intermediate stage of Qi Refinement. Although he was at the peak of early stage, he was still a level lower than them.    

    

The rest time passed very quickly. When Yan Angzhi appeared in front of everyone again, his face was somewhat solemn.    

    

"You guys have almost recovered, right?"    

    

"Yes!" Everyone replied together.    

    

Yan Angzhi nodded. "Alright, since that's the case, come with me. You will pass the trial path of Seven Star Mountain in a moment. Only the first six can enter Seven Star Mountain before the sun sets. I hope you can perform well."    

    

There were only six spots. Two of them were destined to be eliminated. However, after being in Seven Star Mountain for so many years, Wu Di knew another thing. That was, if one did not pass the trial at a fixed time, even if there were six spots, they would be rejected by Seven Star Mountain.    

    

What exactly would one experience on the trial path? It was never a secret. As a Martial Cultivator, it was the most particular thing. If one's heart of cultivation was easily shaken by the outside world, then one wouldn't be qualified to stay in Seven Star Mountain.    

    

"Are you guys ready? Come with me." Yan Angzhi glanced at the eight people and walked in front of them.    

    

When they arrived at the foot of the mountain, Yan Angzhi said something and walked up the stairs. Including Wu Di, the eight of them followed closely without thinking, but something unbelievable happened. Just as they stepped onto the first step, everything in front of them changed.
