Supreme Dragon Martial Soul-Chapter 318: The Frog in the Well! The Leaders of the Three Sects!

Chapter 318: Chapter 318: The Frog in the Well! The Leaders of the Three Sects!

Qin Douyuan sneered disdainfully and spared no effort to belittle Luo Cheng!

The gradual decline of Xuanyuan Sect is an undeniable truth. The younger generation simply cannot compare with the top geniuses of Luoxia Sect and Fierce Cloud Sect!

Qi Guyun in Fierce Cloud Sect would only be at the level of one of their ten ordinary Outer Disciples.

Luo Cheng’s defeat of Qi Guyun might make him the number one in Xuanyuan Sect’s Outer Sect, but compared to the top geniuses of Fierce Cloud Sect, it’s hardly worth mentioning!

"Qin Douyuan!"

Chen Xuan’s face turned to anger, his eyes locked fiercely onto Qin Douyuan.

It was already infuriating when outsiders looked down on Xuanyuan Sect disciples!

But now, even a dignified Outer Elder was behaving like this!

The geniuses of Luoxia Sect and Fierce Cloud Sect are no fools!

But does that mean Xuanyuan Sect disciples are fools?

This was utterly preposterous!

The Ninth Elder also showed some displeasure.

Although he was angry that Luo Cheng had severely injured Lin Zhidong, he was clear about the bigger picture.

No matter what, Luo Cheng is still a disciple of Xuanyuan Sect. In matters like these, how can one boost the morale of others while diminishing their own ambition!

"Hmph! Crude as my words may be, this is the truth!"

Qin Douyuan scoffed coldly and pointed at Luo Cheng, saying, "Do you truly believe that he can claim first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition? Simply self-deception!"

"Hahaha!"

Luo Cheng burst out laughing, his piercing gaze fixed on Qin Douyuan:

"Elder Qin, since you’re so confident, shall we make a wager?"

Qin Douyuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, "A wager on what?"

Luo Cheng responded coldly, "Very simple! On the second day of February, if I fail to claim first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, I’ll submit myself to your disposition! But if by some stroke of luck I succeed, you will abolish your cultivation and leave Xuanyuan Sect! How about it?"

These words stunned the entire crowd.

Qin Douyuan froze for a moment, surprised by Luo Cheng’s immense confidence and his boldness in making such a solemn oath, even feeling a brief moment of panic!

Luo Cheng’s gaze was sharp as a blade: "Bet or not?"

Haha!

Qin Douyuan’s momentary panic quickly turned into fury! frёewebnoѵēl.com

Luo Cheng, compared to the top geniuses from Luoxia Sect and Fierce Cloud Sect, pales in significance!

Especially that unparalleled genius from Fierce Cloud Sect, who has the record of killing an Awakening Vein Realm expert—Luo Cheng isn’t even worthy of carrying his shoes! What’s there to fear?

With that thought, Qin Douyuan’s expression turned cold and fierce as he sneered at Luo Cheng:

"A trivial figure like you, audacious enough to make such vows! Do you think this will intimidate me? With your abilities, at best, you might land yourself a mid-tier position in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition! Since you want to bet, why would I decline?"

Luo Cheng nodded immediately: "Good! It’s settled! Everyone here shall bear witness!"

Seeing Luo Cheng’s decisiveness, Qin Douyuan sneered:

"Your courage is commendable; you’re not unlike Yun Mengli in character! But alas, you are just a frog in the well!"

Luo Cheng paid no heed, turning to the Ninth Elder: "Ninth Elder, do you have anything to say?"

"Luo Cheng, if you truly bring honor to the sect by claiming first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, not only will I let today’s matter go, I will reward you handsomely!"

At this point, the Ninth Elder could no longer press the issue, especially since Luo Cheng had argued that he had shown mercy. Otherwise, Lin Zhidong wouldn’t have survived at all.

"Nonetheless, I must remind you that the top geniuses of Fierce Cloud Sect and Luoxia Sect are on a completely different level from our Xuanyuan Sect. Don’t presume this will be easy; on the contrary, it’s incredibly difficult. Take care of yourself!"

Leaving those words behind, the Ninth Elder departed with Lin Zhidong. With barely a month left until the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, he needed to treat Lin Zhidong as soon as possible.

"Luo Cheng, remember your words! On the second day of February, I’ll see how you manage to claim first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition!"

Qin Douyuan cast Luo Cheng an exceedingly malicious glance as he left. His face bore a sinister smile, already contemplating how best to torment Luo Cheng come February second.

Should he abolish his cultivation first, sever his limbs, or hand him over directly to Qin Yuanfeng for disposal?

As for Luo Cheng claiming first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, Qin Douyuan hadn’t even entertained the notion.

The possibility was virtually nonexistent!

After the two departed, Elder Chen Xuan looked at Luo Cheng and couldn’t resist sighing: "Luo Cheng, you were impulsive! Had you not done this, I could still protect you from harm. At worst, I could accompany you to the Punishment Hall!"

Chen Lingyu and Lin Xiaoyun shared the same belief.

Luo Cheng smiled indifferently: "Master, I know what I’m doing. I killed Qi Guyun, humiliating Crown Prince Hall in the Outer Sect competition. Now, I don’t know how many people see me as an eyesore, wishing to kill me!"

Elder Chen Xuan shook his head with a bitter smile: "And so you pledged to claim first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition?"

Luo Cheng nodded.

This was precisely his intention; rather than moving fearfully, he decided to step forward boldly and display enough merit!

This way, he could both avoid unnecessary trouble and elevate his value within the sect!

"The Three Sects Martial Arts Competition concerns the honor of the sect! You’ve made such a solemn oath, so the entire sect will likely turn their eyes to you, hoping you’ll bring glory and suppress the Outer Disciples of the Three Sects! At least for a short time, Crown Prince Hall’s people won’t bother you further."

Chen Xuan nodded affirmatively, then shook his head in hesitation: "But claiming first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition is no simple task."

"While Qin Douyuan’s words are harsh, they’re not groundless. In the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, the top geniuses of the Three Great Sects will gather, each one extraordinary, especially Hua Jingyang of Fierce Cloud Sect and Yan Qingshuang of Luoxia Sect."

"Yan Qingshuang mastered the Human Sword Integration long ago. Paired with the Nine-star Sword Martial Soul, her achievements in Sword Dao are unmatched among the younger generation within the Three Sects!!"

"Hua Jingyang of Fierce Cloud Sect is even more terrifying, with his awakening of the Ten-star Spirit Martial Soul. He’s widely recognized as the leader among the younger generation of the Three Sects! Ten days ago, he personally killed an Awakening Vein Realm First Layer expert—a dazzling talent! His prowess can only be described as unfathomable!"

Chen Xuan meticulously explained the strongest opponents Luo Cheng would face in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition. His solemn tone left Chen Lingyu and Lin Xiaoyun nearby feeling immense pressure and a sense of insurmountable despair!

"Killed an Awakening Vein Realm First Layer expert?"

Luo Cheng listened, his expression unwavering, with even a hint of fierce battle intent in his eyes.

He had slain Qi Guyun using only seventy to eighty percent of his strength! Now that his cultivation had advanced to Tongxuan Realm Third Layer Late Stage, his power had made a tremendous leap, with his body’s strength nearing two million pounds—approximately double Dragon Power!

Unfortunately, he lacked suitable opponents to spar with!

Otherwise, he could ascertain just how formidable his combat prowess truly was!

Whether he could match Hua Jingyang and slay an Awakening Vein Realm First Layer expert!

Chen Xuan, seeing that Luo Cheng remained silent, assumed he was overwhelmed by fear. He softened his tone to comfort him:

"Luo Cheng, there’s no need to worry. Through this Outer Sect competition, you earned the chance to enter the Washing Body Pond—this is a tremendous opportunity!"

"The Washing Body Pond can cleanse impurities, transform your body. You’ve achieved the Golden Body Realm and formed Dragon Power, proving your innate talent in physical cultivation is exceptional. By training in the Washing Body Pond, your abilities will surely skyrocket! Coupled with your cultivation breakthrough, combined together, you might stand a chance to defeat Hua Jingyang after all..."
