Shocked, Qin Shaoyang looked at Hao Ren and wondered if his ears were playing tricks on him.
However, Hao Ren was still pointing at him while standing on the stone pillar.
“What did you say!?” Qin Shaoyang asked while emphasizing each word, and his golden robe fluttered slightly.
He could still tolerate it when Su Han challenged his authority since she was a Qian-level cultivator and a former level 4 inspector.
However, how dare Hao Ren also challenge his authority?!
“I want to see how powerful a main examiner is,” Hao Ren said.
“Reckless!” Qin Shaoyang couldn’t bear it anymore. Standing up, he abruptly released an overwhelming aura and said, “As the main examiner, I disqualify you from the combat exam!”
“Examiner Qin, are you afraid to fight me?” Hao Ren looked at Qin Shaoyang and asked in a louder voice.
“Boo…” Hearing his words, the nearly tens of thousands of cultivators all booed.
Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu exchanged a look, wondering what Hao Ren meant by that.
Covered in blood, Zhao Kuo sat up and with the sheet of silk draped on his shoulders. He looked up at Hao Ren and thought, “Is this kid crazy after so many battles?”
Zhao Kuo couldn’t even defeat Qin Shaoyang who was a mid-tier Kun-level cultivator, let alone Hao Ren who was almost depleted of his nature essence.
Su Han frowned in confusion as she looked at Hao Ren. After each battle, her regard for him increased gradually.
Standing on the viewing platform, Qin Shaoyang’s white face turned purple instantly.
“Are you afraid… Are you afraid…” Hao Ren’s words echoed in Qin Shaoyang’s ears and resonated around the arena.
As a powerful main examiner, he was now insulted by a Gen-level cultivator!
Although the cultivation strength Hao Ren showed in the battle far surpassed Gen-level, it didn’t mean that he was powerful enough to challenge the main examiner who was a Kun-level cultivator.
“Mr. Qin, this kid is too arrogant. Let’s disqualify him,” a deputy examiner by Qin Shaoyang’s side suggested.
It was indeed outrageous for an examinee to challenge the main examiner!
“Humph!” Qin Shaoyang returned to his armchair, feeling that he didn’t have to lower himself to fight a Gen-level cultivator. After all, it wouldn’t reflect well on him even if he won the match.
“Examiner Qin, did you forget that you just got back your natural dharma treasure from me?” Hao Ren yelled again.
“Wow!” The cultivators in the east exam area gasped again.
Losing the natal dharma treasure was the most shameful thing for a cultivator, especially when the main examiner got back his natal dharma treasure from a Gen-level cultivator.
“You…” Qin Shaoyang felt the fury rise in his chest.
It was a slap on his face! Hao Ren’s words touched Qin Shaoyang’s most sensitive nerve.
After thinking about how Su Han tried to protect Hao Ren all the time and how much she disliked him, Qin Shaoyang stood up abruptly while the armchair behind him shattered into pieces.
In a golden beam, his golden weaving shuttle suddenly shot in Hao Ren’s direction.
Bang!
The stone pillar was shattered into dust.
Standing on the sideline of the arena, Su Han’s body shifted, and she rushed over.
However, Hao Ren was prepared. He flew up into the high sky on his sword energies the moment the stone pillar exploded.
“What? Are you trying to flee? You think too highly of yourself!” Qin Shaoyang clenched his fists in resentment. “Since you challenged me, I’ll teach you a lesson so that you’ll know your place!”
Bang!
Two deep holes appeared on the ground under Qin Shaoyang’s feet as he stomped his feet and shot toward Hao Ren!
The cultivators in the audience all looked up, surprised and excited at the fact that Qin Shaoyang decided to fight.
On the one hand, they didn’t expect the Kun-level main examiner to lower himself and fight with a Gen-level cultivator. On the other hand, they wanted to see how long this Gen-level cultivator could last in the battle!
They didn’t know that Qin Shaoyang was trying to settle old and new accounts with Hao Ren in this battle.
What Qin Shaoyang hated Hao Ren the most was the fact that Su Han showed favors to Hao Ren and even gave him her rare smiles!
“Wait!”
Stepping on sword energies, Hao Ren flew up another dozen meters.
“It’s too late for you to ask for mercy!” Qin Shaoyang rushed toward Hao Ren on his golden weaving shuttle.
“If I win, you must promise me one thing!” Hao Ren yelled in a loud voice.
All the cultivators in the east exam area turned their eyes toward Hao Ren.
Under the gaze of so many eyes, Qin Shaoyang had to contain his urge to hit Hao Ren. He paused to maintain his dignity and said, “What is it?”
“If I win, I will take one thing from the Dragon God Shrine!” Hao Ren locked his eyes on Qin Shaoyang. “Can you promise me that as the main examiner?”
Whoosh! All the cultivators turned their eyes toward Qin Shaoyang.
“As a main examiner, does Qin Shaoyang dare to accept such a condition? Does he have the authority to accept it?” people thought, “Choose one thing he wants from the Dragon God Shrine… What treasure will he pick?”
Although they were just watching, the cultivators were full of excitement and wanted to see if this main examiner could accept such a big bet!
“Humph!” Qin Shaoyang couldn’t lose face now. “If you can defeat me, I will accept any conditions you set!”
“Ok. Let’s begin,” Hao Ren said coldly.
Seeing Hao Ren’s calm expression, Qin Shaoyang got alerted.
‘No! At Gen-level, he couldn’t possibly win against me! He used tricks to defeat Zhao Kuo, and I can’t fall into his traps!” At this thought, Qin Shaoyang’s golden weaving shuttle flew out swiftly from beneath his feet.
The golden weaving shuttle emitted dazzling white light which was the purest metal-elemental nature essence!
Not wanting to waste time on the battle, Qin Shaoyang launched his most powerful attack!
Standing on the ground, Su Han put her hand on the handle of her longsword, ready to interrupt Qin Shaoyang’s attacks at any moment.
Hao Ren was indeed impulsive in challenging Qin Shaoyang, but she wouldn’t allow Qin Shaoyang to kill Hao Ren!
The golden weaving shuttle flew toward Hao Ren with an overwhelming aura.
The natal dharma treasure of a mid-tier Kun-level cultivator!
Such pressure would have crushed an ordinary Gen-level cultivator!
While all the cultivators watched with fear for him, Hao Ren suddenly took out a black sword from his necklace.
An overwhelming amount of murderous spirit came from the surface of the black sword!
This was the sword that the old dragon king, Zhao Haoran, gave Hao Ren! Black Dragon Spike!
Peak Qian-level!
Instantly, Qin Shaoyang sensed a pressure thousands of times greater than Gen-level!
He lost his balance and almost fell from the sky.
With the overwhelming murderous spirit of the Black Dragon Spike came the power of peak Qian-level!
This powerful aura permeated the entire east exam area and immobilized the low-leveled cultivators. It even spread to the south exam area and the north exam areas which were on the two sides of the east exam area.
Sensing the presence of a powerful master, the cultivators battling in the other arenas withdrew their dharma treasures in astonishment.
Su Han widened her beautiful eyes as she looked at Hao Ren in astonishment.
Peak Qian-level was her dream realm, and Hao Ren was there already?!
At mid-tier Kun-level, Qin Shaoyang was hundreds of times stronger than the mid-tier Gen-level, but he was nothing before the realm of peak Qian-level!
Even ten Qin Shaoyang couldn’t defeat one peak Qian-level master!
Dang!
Hao Ren’s Black Dragon Spike hacked into Qin Shaoyang’s golden weaving shuttle.
The golden weaving shuttle was knocked back hundreds of meters away since such a dharma treasure was no match for the Black Dragon Spike which contained the essence dragon soul of Zhao Haoran!
Suddenly, Qin Shaoyang spat out a mouthful of blood. Hao Ren’s attack almost cut him off from the golden weaving shuttle, his natal dharma treasure.
Holding the Black Dragon Spike with his right hand, Hao Ren turned his left hand toward the ground and exerted a slight force.
Hualala… All kinds of debris were drawn toward his feet by the suction force from his palm, and they piled up into a rock tower as high as one hundred meters.
Removing the sword energies from beneath his feet, Hao Ren landed steadily on top of the rock tower and looked down at Qin Shaoyang overbearingly.
“If you admit defeat now, I’ll spare your life!”
Each of his words resonated in the east exam area like thunder.
Bang! At the same time, the aura of the peak Qian-level was rereleased.
Crack! Crack… The chipped rocks around the rock tower were shattered into dust under this aura!
Pale-faced, Qin Shaoyang summoned back his golden weaving shuttle.
Outside of the arena, Oldman Zeng was even paler in the face.
“This Hao Ren is terrifying!” he thought.
Thinking back to the times when he messed with the East Ocean Dragon Palace and Hao Ren, Oldman Zeng had chills running down his back.
Suddenly, he felt like the most fearful thing was not being beaten back to Zhen-level by a grandmaster but looking at Hao Ren’s aura…
“Humph! You are playing tricks on me!” With his golden weaving shuttle, Qin Shaoyang flew toward Hao Ren to hit him.
“No Gen-level cultivator can instantly elevate himself to peak Qian-level. He can only achieve such illusions with certain secret elixir pills!” Qian Shaoyang thought, “I know that the West Ocean Dragon Palace has such secret elixir pills, but I didn’t expect the East Ocean Dragon Palace to have them as well!”
“You think too highly of yourself!” Hao Ren said to Qin Shaoyang.
He struck with the Black Dragon Spike while he remained standing on the rock tower!
The overwhelming murderous spirit formed a solid black beam, hitting the center of the golden weaving shuttle before pushing the golden weaving shuttle onto Qin Shaoyang’s chest!
Crack… Qin Shaoyang felt like all the bones in his body broke, and he had no strength to even block half of the attack!
Not able to move, Qin Shaoyang was pushed back by dozens of meters!
Whoosh! Dense sword energies shot out of Hao Ren’s body.
1,000, 2,000, 3,000, 4,000… There were tens of thousands of sword energies circling Hao Ren!
