Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 326 : 325 Cang Ming

Watching Kong Chan being directly pressed into a large pit by Zhou Bai, then fainting within that pit, the rescue personnel all shuddered slightly.

Looking towards Zhou Bai, who stood to the side, their eyes held a mix of reverence and fear.

If it was said that Kong Chan, with his 5th Realm cultivation, could rival a 6th Realm cultivator by relying on the Tathagata Seal and the Great Sun Dharma Body, people could understand and admire that.

But Zhou Bai, with his 3rd Realm cultivation, displaying the ferocity that swept away Kong Chan, was truly terrifying.

The one responsible for refereeing was a 7th Realm monk from Leiyin Temple, Wu Dao.

Wu Dao glanced at the knocked-out Kong Chan, then at the proudly standing Zhou Bai, and couldn't help but say, "Since you have already surpassed Kong Chan in strength, wasn't that a bit too heavy-handed?"

"Teacher, Kong Chan almost flipped the entire arena over, how could I hold back?" Zhou Bai responded with a slant towards Wu Dao.

Wu Dao frowned, a flash of displeasure in his eyes. It was clear that seeing Kong Chan, the first prodigy of Leiyin Temple in a century, whom much was expected from, defeated, still made him uncomfortable.

'Even if Kong Chan had not been defeated by Zhou Bai's hand, he would inevitably have been defeated...' Wu Dao sighed inwardly, then walked towards the stage below.

Meanwhile, due to the extensive damage caused to the stage by Zhou Bai and Kong Chan's battle, Zhou Bai had no choice but to step down from the stage, rest a bit, and wait for the staff to repair the stage.

As he stepped down, Qian Wangsun and others couldn't help but surge forward.

Qian Wangsun, looking excitedly at Zhou Bai, exclaimed, "How did you do it? So big, so hard, so fast, and so fierce, teach me more!"

Thud! Lu Wanzhen kicked Qian Wangsun in the stomach and said annoyedly, "Would you die if you didn't speak dirty?"

Jiang Weishan scratched his head, feeling somewhat downhearted, "Zhou Bai, I didn't expect that without realizing it, you've already surpassed us by so much. With this inter-school competition, it seems we've won just by lying down."

Although the others had joy and admiration on their faces, they couldn't hide the sense of loss in their eyes, especially Zuo Dao and Zheng Wentian, who looked at Zhou Bai with incredibly complex gazes.

Seeing everyone looking this way, Zhou Bai was afraid that his victory would dampen everyone's fighting spirit and hastily consoled them, "Don't feel down because of this inter-school competition. After all, anyone in my group would have won lying down, it has nothing to do with how strong they are.

Everyone should stay grounded and focus on more practical goals. Don't compare yourselves with me. No normal person could beat me."

Jiang Weishan felt a pain in his chest as if he had been stabbed, but then felt somewhat better: 'Yes, Zhou Bai is a freak of nature. Among the Four Great Taoist Schools, there's only one like him. What's the point in comparing with him?'

In the spectator stands, Ying Hui laughed, his beard quivering continuously, and called out to the other teachers beside him, "Pay up, pay up! Hand over all the points now! Let me remind you, no welching on the bet. If anyone tries to skate, don't blame me for not being nice."

Jijian Pavilion's Xu Luobai and Leiyin Temple's Hui Jing looked despondent, and couldn't help but ask, "What exactly did Zhou Bai cultivate? How is he so capable of fighting, withstanding, and running? He's not mutated, is he?"

"You're the one who's mutated. Could a mutant be so sensible?" Ying Hui retorted, "This is what a real genius looks like. Have you forgotten the essence of a divine chart?

The so-called divine charts are pathways for cultivation created by our predecessors, the culmination of countless years of cultivation experience.

Following the divine charts for cultivation is, in the end, meant to increase efficiency, allowing cultivators to practice safely and efficiently, standing on the shoulders of countless experiences from those before them."

But for a true genius, what difference would the divine diagram make? One could still practice the cultivation techniques of the sword diagram, refine the body, learn martial arts, study arrays, and acquire the knowledge of runes.

And clearly, Zhou Bai was just such an all-around genius."

From a side, Xu Luobai and Hui Jing both looked at Zhou Bai in the competition area with a mix of shock and envy, "Ah, how I wish our Dao School had a Zhou Bai."

Just then, You Tu, who had been silent all this time, cracked a slight smile, "Don't celebrate too early, Ying Hui, the match is not over yet."

Ying Hui turned to You Tu, "What do you mean? Do you think your Dao School's Cang Ming can defeat Zhou Bai? You must be dreaming."

You Tu just smiled, a mysterious confidence shining in his eyes, "Just wait and see."

In the VIP seating, many powerful individuals from the Four Great Taoist Schools were also glancing toward the stage, whispering amongst themselves.

"This Zhou Bai, not only can he master the Tianhe Star Explosion sword technique, but his physical strength, Primordial Spirit power, and body refining techniques are all well-developed. It's frightening... truly frightening."

"Frightening what? Our humanity is in need of such supreme powerhouses right now. I've made up my mind, once he takes first place in the competition of the four schools, I will support him with all my strength."

"It's been a long time since we've seen such a versatile cultivator. Do you all remember the last time we saw a genius like this?"

Listening to the discussions around him, Zhao Shouyi slowly said, "Zhou Bai... he reminds me of the Tranquil Hermit."

The name 'Tranquil Hermit' seemed to possess a special kind of magic; as soon as Zhao Shouyi utters these four words, an eerie silence spread among the VIP seats.

Tranquil Hermit was the cultivator who, after the distortion of Heavenly Dao, re-established the path of cultivation for humanity; it could be said that he altered the fated downfall of humanity after the Heavenly Dao became twisted.

Unfortunately, Tranquil Hermit was unable to complete the final compilation of the Dao Treasury 100, preventing humanity from ascending to immortality.

But now, an equally monstrous genius, equally powerful and comprehensive, with an unfathomable depth of ability at a young age, it seemed people were seeing the shadow of Tranquil Hermit in Zhou Bai.

Cultivation was an endeavor where power and knowledge went hand in hand; the stronger the power, the higher the synchronization rate with the Heavenly Dao, and the more knowledge one typically had of the path of immortality. The more knowledge one had of the path of immortality, the stronger one became, increasing synchronization with Heavenly Dao and delving deeper into its mysteries.

A peerless powerhouse represents not just overwhelming strength, but also countless knowledge that can change the world.

Could Zhou Bai also lead humanity to strength?

Even Kong Chan, who had been firmly convinced that he was the strongest human of the century and the North Sea Dao School's headmaster, the Master of Emptiness, who was supposed to lead humanity to victory, couldn't help but entertain this thought as he looked at Zhou Bai.

As everyone harbored similar anticipations, Immortal Ming Yue straightened up slightly and said, "This Zhou Bai is indeed excellent, both his talent and flair are top-notch.

However, we'll have to wait until the competition of the four schools is completely over to see if he can defeat Cang Ming of the Evil Sect as well, before we know whether Zhou Bai truly stands above all."

Hearing Immortal Ming Yue's words, everyone felt a trace of peculiarity. Zhou Bai had already successively defeated Li Gui, Jian Hui, and Kong Chan, displaying his formidable strength utterly and completely, and he still appeared calm and untroubled, showing no sign of injury. Now, he even had a chance to rest while the stage was being repaired—could he still not beat Cang Ming?

Zhao Shouyi frowned slightly, a sudden unsettling premonition striking his heart: 'Could an Immortal from the Evil Sect have set up some sort of scheme in Cang Ming?'
