Mo Wen appeared calm and did not even glance at Shao Ji. He had never considered Shao Ji an opponent. Instead, he looked at the young man in red. He could sense that the young man was a threat, a very strong threat.
“You do have some skills. No wonder you are in fifth place on the leaderboard. But let’s end it here.” The young man in red nodded, but there was not much of an expression on his face. He di dnot think highly of Mo Wen’s abilities. Since Mo Wen wanted to do things the hard way, he would not blame him.
The person who ranked fifth on the leaderboard had more than 20,000 points. If he could take them for himself, he would be able to climb straight from the fourth place to second place.
As for first place…
He did not know what kind of monster “Good Woman” was. They currently had more than 200,000 points and their points were constantly increasing…
200,000 points was an astronomical figure, and it was impossible to hit. He did not understand how the “Good Woman” did it.
Enormous power erupted from the young man in red. The terrifying aura was like a hurricane that hurtled into the clouds. It swept all clouds within a ten-mile radius away.
“What powerful cultivation!”
Mo Wen’s expression was very grave. Lord Merciless’s cultivation was already close to the third martial arts grandmaster realm. He should be at the peak of the second martial arts grandmaster realm. If Tan Qiyue were compared to him, Tan Qiyue would lose out slightly. Furthermore, it was just his cultivation. He was already in the second martial arts grandmaster realm. Unlike Mo Wen, who was not a martial arts grandmaster even though his power far surpassed an ordinary powerhouse in the first martial arts grandmaster realm.
The man pressured him greatly. His strength was similar to the vampire pinnacle grand earl who had died at Mo Wen’s hand. In terms of combat ability, he was probably on par with an ordinary third realm martial arts grandmaster.
“I can only say that it is a tragedy on your part for meeting me. Given your cultivation, you must have been busy these past few days to be able to collect more than 20,000 points, but you have to give them all to me now.”
Lord Merciless laughed flagrantly. It was as if Mo Wen’s points already belonged to him.
An enormous gale palm appeared in the sky. It was ten feet across and slammed towards Mo Wen viciously. It was a gale palm that had been gathered due to the young man’s powerful cultivation. It was extremely powerful. If one wanted to fight it directly, they had to have a similar cultivation level to Lord Merciless.
Mo Wen’s expression was grave. This Lord Merciless might be difficult to deal with. He had been able to kill the vampire pinnacle grand earl because of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear. Now that the spear had been sealed and he could not use any other treasures, he could only depend on himself. His abilities would not be as strong..
However, while Lord Merciless was powerful, his condensed gale palm could not do anything to Mo Wen.
A ray of golden light shone from within Mo Wen. He immediately turned golden. Endless gold light was released, like he was a brilliantly shining sun.
However, Mo Wen’s aura was almost completely suppressed by Lord Merciless. The gale palm covered the entire sky and pressed down in all directions. Mo Wen’s aura was trapped in a prison and could hardly trickle out.
Mo Wen harrumphed. There was a glimmer of light, and he turned into a ray of gold light. He rushed into the air and collided with the massive gale palm.
Crash!
There was an earth-shattering crash. The sand around them swirled, rocks rolled on the ground, and the mountain collapsed. It was chaotic.
Shao Ji, who was a first realm martial arts grandmaster, did not dare to stand in the epicenter of the battle. Instead, he hid far away.
A ray of golden light flew backward into the air in the explosion. Mo Wen was no match for the young man in the fight and Lord Merciless gained the upper hand. However, the gale palm had only thrown Mo Wen several hundred meters backward and did not hurt him.
Mo Wen flipped over and stepped on the face of one of the mountains. He used the momentum to fly into the air and land on the peak of another mountain.
Even though one could not fly in the Red Stone forest, jumping several hundred meters to get onto a mountain peak was easy for martial arts grandmasters.
“Oh, you do have some skills.”
A hint of shock tore through Lord Merciless’ eyes. He had thought that even if Mo Wen did not die in the collision, he would at least be severely injured. Not even an ordinary second realm martial arts grandmaster could block his condensed gale palm. However, Mo Wen had only been thrown backward.
“Your cultivation is a little odd. I cannot sense the aura of a martial arts grandmaster from you. You should not be in the martial arts grandmaster realm yet, are you? But your combat abilities are no weaker than a second realm martial arts grandmaster. What exactly is this?”
Given Lord Merciless’ cultivation, he could sense the oddity in Mo Wen. He was curious. What situation was Mo Wen in? He was not like a martial arts grandmaster, but his power was comparable to a second realm one. He was just a warrior. He found it hard to explain.
Lord Merciless was from the hidden martial arts strain and was the heir of Huaxia’s true martial arts. He was part of the most elite of Huaxia martial arts. His understanding and thoughts about martial arts were far beyond the warriors of the inner worlds and main space.
He could not find a reason to explain Mo Wen’s situation.
However, he could tell that Mo Wen had a very strong inner Qi. What was very special was that his physical body was incredibly strong. Even the physical body of a third realm martial arts grandmaster might not be able to compare to his.
The only explanation for the strong physical body was that he had had an incredible encounter. The encounter was based entirely on luck and could not be found. People couldn’t even be jealous.
Mo Wen had an inner Qi that was far more powerful than a first realm martial arts grandmaster but did not have the aura of a martial arts grandmaster. How could that be explained?
Lord Merciless could not think of an answer. Mo Wen also cultivated in the three techniques, the top martial arts techniques in the world. The three techniques inhibited each other and gathered to form a large cycle to fuse. This led to Mo Wen’s incredibly powerful inner Qi.
Cultivating three techniques at the same time and also the most difficult divine techniques is a legend, even in the hidden martial arts strain. To be more exact, it was prohibited because the hidden martial arts strain did not encourage people to cultivate in several techniques at the same time, or they would become distracted. It would lead to chaos and impreciseness and the cultivator would go mad.
It was not that there were not people who dared to do it and succeeded, but in the long history of Huaxia, those people could be counted on one hand. There was usually not even one every several hundred or even thousand years.
“I advise you to hand over your points. Even though you have some skills, they are just passable. Your skills are not magnificent, and I doubt you can enter the top ten. Perhaps in the previous competitions, you were able to make the top three with your skills or even take champion. But this competition is our battleground, and you are nothing.”
What Lord Merciless meant by “our” was the young powerhouses of the hidden martial arts stream. If the warriors of the hidden martial arts stream appeared, the martial arts circle was their world. There would not be a second possibility.
Mo Wen had quite a number of points, but he would eventually be surpassed or someone might steal his points. Lord Merciless knew that some powerhouses had not yet acted. They were all extremely powerful and were comparable to Lord Merciless. They had not yet appeared on the leaderboard because they had not acted yet. In other words, they were too lazy to kill the criminals to collect points. They were waiting for competitors to gain points and then steal it from them.
Even if he did not steal Mo Wen’s points, someone else would steal them sooner or later.
“Your battleground?” Mo Wen nodded. He had already guessed who the young man was. He figured that they were probably a hidden stream martial artist Mo Qingtian mentioned.
The hidden stream martial artists were very powerful. Even some of the younger powerhouses were extremely powerful. Wouldn’t the older powerhouses be even more shockingly powerful? There must be a few immortals amongst them.
No wonder Mo Qingtian said that it was difficult for Huatian Palace to invite the martial artists from the hidden stream. They would only come if Huatian Palace offered them sufficiently attractive conditions.
“Be good and hand over your points. If you work with me, I will not kill you, but if you retaliate, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
Lord Merciless waved his fan casually. He liked the feeling of having his opponent admit defeat without having to fight them. He felt accomplished when his opponent feared him and compromised. It would not be difficult for him to strike and kill Mo Wen to take his points. However, it was true talent if he were able to get Mo Wen to give him his points without putting up a fight.
Shao Ji, who was hidden far away, looked at Lord Merciless with a little fear. Lord Merciless was very odd. He might kill someone if he was feeling unhappy. There were a few times when Shao Ji had not been prompt in serving the man. His attitude had not been respectful enough, and the man had almost killed him. When Lord Merciless said he was going to kill Mo Wen, he had not been joking at all.
Even if Mo Wen handed over his points, Lord Merciless might not let Mo Wen off without killing him as he said. He might let Mo Wen go if he was in a good mood, but he might also go back on his words and be ruthless. The probability of him killing Mo Wen was higher.
“Hand it over obediently? You are assuming too much. Who do you think you are? Take it if you can.” Mo Wen laughed. Lord Merciless was a little too arrogant. He had worked hard for five days to accumulate the points, and the man wanted him to hand them over obediently?
“It looks like you do not know that you are seeking death.”
Lord Merciless’ eyes grew icy cold. His tone and expression were just as calm, but the murderous intent on him grew stronger and stronger.
It has been a long time since anyone dared to speak to him in that manner. Those who dared to act so flagrantly before him were all now a pile of bones.
“I don’t know if I am seeking death or not. But if you want to kill me given your skills, you are assuming too much.”
Mo Wen was not afraid that Lord Merciless would be angry. They had already crossed paths and become enemies. Was he afraid of trouble? Lord Merciless was powerful, but Mo Wen was not weak. Even if Lord Merciless was not such a powerful opponent, if Mo Wen could not defeat him, couldn’t he run?
Who said he cannot escape? It was never too late for a gentleman to seek his revenge and Mo Wen was not a stubborn man.
Furthermore, he wanted to fight with this sort of person to see the difference between himself and others.
