Chapter 94: Su Changqing: Arrogant! Face-to-Face Ultimate Move!
"Ha ha ha, well said!"
The laughter of the Great Peng King shook the heavens and earth. "Humans? They're nothing but weak!"
The crowd of beasts behind him roared in unison, their rampant beastly auras rising with the laughter, piercing through the sky.
Ninth on the Prodigy List
This dazzling achievement thrilled even the many beast clans who had been mentally prepared. Their original goal was merely the tenth spot, as that was where the old Peng King had ranked.
But to their surprise, the young Peng King's talent was even more formidable, moving up one more rank!
This unexpected joy made all the beast clans ecstatic.
Joy and Grief
While the beast clans rejoiced, the human side was filled with an oppressive silence.
The ninth rank on the Prodigy List, with its terrifying prestige, thoroughly crushed the human prodigies.
Though they had anticipated it, the reality still left them disheartened.
Hearing the beasts' taunts, they were speechless.
...
Above the Platform
Radiant light illuminated the heavens and earth. Though the test was over, the grand stone pillar still emitted a misty glow. The countless runes engraved on it continued to shift and flow.
Suddenly, the stone pillar shook violently, and a golden beam of light shot down from its top.
Boom!
The light struck the young Peng King's forehead.
"Heavenly Peng Dragon Technique!"
The young Peng King's eyes gleamed with excitement.
This technique was even more terrifying than the one the old Peng King had obtained, a formidable offensive skill!
Even imperial techniques would struggle to match it!
"Ha ha ha, with the Dragon Technique? Who can stand against me in the future?"
The young Peng King's confident laughter echoed through the sky. His golden eyes swept across the crowd.
"Just you lot?"
"You can't match me in power, and your talent can't even come close!"
"Little Immortal Sect? I think you should change your name to Wasted Sect! Ha ha ha!"
His arrogant laughter shook the surroundings.
Hearing the insults, all the human prodigies felt a surge of anger.
They clenched their fists, veins bulging on their foreheads.
All present were young and spirited. When had they ever endured such humiliation?
They wanted to retort, to lash out, but they were speechless.
Skill was the deciding factor. No matter how harsh the words, they had to endure them.
...
"This beast is too arrogant."
Su Changqing frowned, feeling a knot in his chest.
"Changqing, go and shut him up!"
Even the usually calm Xu Qingzi's face darkened.
"Now?" Su Changqing hesitated.
The young Peng King had just finished his test and was at the height of his confidence.
If he went up now and performed poorly, it would only boost the beast's morale.
"Now!"
Xu Qingzi nodded, glancing at the arrogant young Peng King. "Remember, be strong. The more arrogant, the better."
Seeing the intense confidence on Xu Qingzi's face, Su Changqing's hesitation vanished.
With the support of the Little Immortal Sect, what did he have to fear?
What he needed to do was to overwhelm the young Peng King and crush his arrogance!
"Be arrogant, huh."
Su Changqing nodded thoughtfully, then looked at Xu Qingzi seriously. "Make sure the elders create a big scene. I'm going in!"
With that, Su Changqing strode confidently into the arena.
Xu Qingzi, hearing this, was momentarily stunned.
Elders?
What elders?
...
Before the Ancient Stone Carving
The young Peng King, seeking to vent his anger, taunted all the humans present.
The human side was oppressively silent, not a sound to be heard.
Until a soft rustling of footsteps broke the silence.
Everyone turned their heads simultaneously.
There, a handsome young man in rough hemp clothing, with a straight and proud back, was calmly walking towards the ancient stone inscription.
"Is it him?"
The human crowd frowned, remembering that this person seemed to have mistakenly been included among the top prodigies.
Testing now would only bolster the demon race's morale, wouldn't it?
Unlike the others, Zhou Yu, Fang Yi, Miao Ba, and the white-bearded elder, who knew some of the inside story, all had their eyes light up when they saw Su Changqing.
They were well aware of his formidable strength.
Whether it was advancing under the pressure of a Saint King or forcefully defeating Wu Chen, it was clear that Su Changqing was far from an ordinary mortal!
Even Su Nan and Wu Jiuling's gazes sharpened at this moment.
"Changqing, where will you rank?"
...
On the platform.
Su Changqing walked slowly, his expression calm and composed.
Having grown up in the mountains, he didn't understand what it meant to be domineering.
But in his memory, the most unique presence was that of his Scholar Immortal teacher.
That serene demeanor, unshaken even as the heavens and earth crumbled before him, was a confidence and arrogance that defied everything.
Su Changqing, a scholar at heart, combined with the righteous aura that had long been hidden within him, made his presence align perfectly with that of a Scholar Immortal.
Now, whether by choice or by revealing his true self, Su Changqing's aura suddenly changed!
Clear and serene, elegant and casual, he walked as if through his own backyard, passing by the Little Peng King without a detour.
Seeing such confidence and arrogance, everyone present had their eyes narrow.
"Testing now, are you trying to overshadow me?"
The Little Peng King sneered, "A mere clown, inviting your own humiliation."
He expected Su Changqing to retort or to be angered.
But to his surprise, Su Changqing only gave him a calm, indifferent glance and then completely ignored him.
That calm gaze made the Little Peng King's expression turn grim.
The greatest insult to someone isn't harsh words or scolding, but complete disregard.
Under Su Changqing's serene demeanor lay an even more arrogant pride!
"Putting on airs! Let's see if you can rank higher than me!" the Little Peng King sneered.
The crowd, upon hearing this, all showed signs of worry.
Although it seemed unbelievable, in the clash of auras just now, Su Changqing had not been the weaker one.
But that was just an illusion. If the test results didn't surpass the Little Peng King, the backlash would be even harder to bear.
"Being ranked ninth on the prodigy list, does that make you proud?"
Su Changqing walked calmly to the ancient stone inscription and said to the Little Peng King.
He couldn't think of a more arrogant line, but fortunately, the Little Peng King had set a good example.
"Open your eyes and watch."
Su Changqing slowly turned, raising his head to look at the pinnacle of the grand stone pillar, and softly said:
"What, is a true prodigy!"
At these words, the crowd erupted in a chorus of whispers.
The words the Little Peng King had just spoken were now being returned to him in full!
Right in his face!
"Arrogant, you had better—"
The Little Peng King's face turned ashen, about to say something.
But before he could finish, Su Changqing's hand lightly touched the ancient stone inscription.
Infinite patterns erupted in light, the mysterious glow passing through Su Changqing's bones, blood, and soul, and then returning to the stone.
And in the next instant—
Boom!
The light exploded like a bomb!
A surging wave of righteous energy filled the entire world!
The murmuring crowd now erupted into a frenzy!
Anomaly! Another anomaly appeared!
