Cheat Cultivator's Ascension-Chapter 423: A Little Lesson
"Hey, haven't you heard, compared to the last Dao Enlightenment Competition, there are a lot more participants who passed the first round"
"Hahaha, is that all you heard? I also hear that all sorts of top tier geniuses just suddenly pop out of nowhere and dominated the entire ranking…"
"Looks like that guy from the Heavenly Secret Tower will already meet his match…"
"Match? Even that prince from the Imperial Court was handled by him so easily, what do you mean he already found his match?"
"Hahahaha, you sound like you're a fan, what? Angry at me telling the truth about your idol? What a wuss"
Just a few more hours later after the Headmistress of the Dao Seeking Mountain, and her nephew, the immortal-like young man finishes their discussion regarding cultivation, the place where the first trial was held is already crowded with the remaining participants, the numbers still quite a lot despite most of the participants being eliminated in the first round, each and every one of these geniuses discussing a lot of things, but their major focus is mostly one of the three subjects, the geniuses who seemingly popped out of nowhere, the imperial prince who decided to compete here and the young man who formed a beef with him in just the first trial of the competition.
While they are all discussing about these things, a select few of them noticed that the two most prominent topic, but the cunning imperial prince and the immortal-like young man is already approaching the place, the two of them possessing a bearing far different from people like them, making them wonder whether they should really be treated as the same kind of people, as the same geniuses as them.
'They're fucking monsters…' most of them thought as they look at these two, something inside them telling them that they shouldn't mess with these two, and weird enough, despite the overbearing display that the imperial prince, Long Moxie, had shown in the previous trial, they couldn't help but feel like the immortal-like young man is far more threatening than him, despite merely blocking an attack from the imperial prince.
Meanwhile, even the geniuses who come from outside the Sky Soul Star couldn't help but pay attention to these two as they were quite surprised that they would find this kind of talent in a backwater world like this, a world that barely have any Celestial Level experts in it, not to mention an environment too poor to nurture someone of their level.
"Hmmm? They are fairly interesting alright"
"But for the people of this world to even place us beneath these two, looks like we need to show them more of our abilities…"
"Hahaha, why don't you just let them be, they're just frogs sitting at the bottom of the well after all…"
"That doesn't mean they can just go and disrespect us like that, should we teach those two a lesson?"
As the group mainly composed of those who came from outside this world discussed, they couldn't help but express their grievance towards both the imperial prince and the immortal-like young man, most of them wondering whether they should suppress the two to establish dominance over the masses.
After all, they are all geniuses with their own pride and reputation to uphold, their reason being the fact that if they refuse to show their power to the locals of this place, then this reputation of theirs would be forfeit, being compared to a local of this planet when they are obviously superior.
While they are thinking about this though, they are still civil enough to know and act like this is not the right place and time to "fight" with these two, the geniuses who couldn't help but want to garner the respect and even fear of the cultivators participating in this competition just barely holding themselves back from straight up attacking either Su Xiaotian and Long Moxie.
In particular though, the male outsider geniuses have their eyes particularly focused on the immortal-like young man who appears to be less troublesome compared to the imperial prince, this not being the only reason as majority of them are thinking of suppressing and even possibly humiliating him as a show of power to the ones who are accompanying him, their jealousy and envy apparent as they watches him going to the gathering place with six ladies all beautiful beyond compare travelling along with him, their beauty pulling gazes towards them while making those observing him wonder just what sort of life did he live previously for him to receive such blessings from the heavens above.
Meanwhile, descending towards the crowd, the immortal-like young man senses the eyes directed towards him, the clear envy and jealousy from them making him easily realize that they are eyeing him due to the ones beside him, this reason making him feel annoyed as he thought that this problem just won't go away no matter where he goes.
{My dear big brother, beware of them, they are from outside our world…} seeing the expression on her older brother's face, the bubby Wu Xiaoyao said with a hint of worry in her voice, thinking that the young man might do anything severe to them, something that might become a problem as they have yet to reach a stage where they can defend themselves against the people backing these young geniuses.
Hearing his younger sister's words ringing in his mind, Su Xiaotian looks at her and nodded, appreciating her worry, however, he refuses to just let them go for looking at the ladies like that, especially when he felt that some of them even have lustful thoughts about the ladies beside him.
'Hahaha, Su Xiaotian, what a hypocrite you are…' while it is true that there is only appreciation in his gaze whenever he is looking at ladies unfamiliar to him, the immortal-like young man still couldn't help but feel like these people below them and he himself are just one of the similar kind, however, despite that, he refuses to just not teach them a lesson when they are eyeing the people closest to him.
As he thought of this, boundless soul power already spread out with him as the center, a fact that is impossible to figure out even from a Celestial Realm expert's perspective, as his soul power appears to be quite erratic and unpredictable due to him combining it with both spatial and temporal rules, making the origin hard to trace.
With his peculiar soul power reaching all the way to the location of these geniuses who come from the outside, his showcase of control gets even better as he splits the soul power to target just specifically the ones looking at the girls with malicious intent, suppressing them completely as a mountainous pressure descends on them, so palpable that they start wondering why is it that their bodies suddenly get all too heavy as if they are about to just collapse on the ground, their intent barely holding on as their body shakes, wanting to collapse and just bend on the ground.
It was not only that as Su Xiaotian even infuses his soul power with a trace of killing intent completely undetectable except for when the person is being specifically targeted by his soul power, this little push causing everyone he is targeting to collapse kneeling on the ground, with both their hands being the only support they have from completely falling face flat, their bead-sized sweat continuously dripping out of their body almost as if it would form a puddle underneath them.
Seeing their juniors suddenly feeling ill, their guardians couldn't help but frown as they wonder why is it that they just suddenly collapsed on the ground, all of them immediately spreading their senses all across the field trying to search for the perpetrator if this only for such effort to be for naught, as their juniors appears to just mysteriously fall after one another.
They weren't able to easily relate it to the geniuses of the Sky Soul Star and the powers affiliated to them as well due to the fact that the perpetrator of this event also targeted people who are ogling the ladies, Zi Yu'er in particular, among the geniuses of the Sky Soul Star, making sure that they received the same treatment as the outsiders.
{You did something didn't you, my dear big brother~?} looking at the immortal-like young man once again, her face with a smile that seems to appreciate the thing he had just done, the bubbly young beauty asked telepathically out of fear of being heard by the powerful people in the audience, her question being acknowledged as the young man nods at her.
{Thank you, Tian~~~} out of nowhere, other voices pops up in his head, all of them from the other ladies who also seem to realize he is the reason for this, the smile on their peerless faces directed to him as they descend to the ground, the people previously observing them having no time to get jealous now as they are paying more attention to the participants who suddenly just collapsed on the ground.
