Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 370 - 352 Leaving the Liu Mansion
The elder’s words ignited the emotions of everyone present.
What could be more thrilling than a straightforward fight as an assessment?
The previous two assessments by the elder had not been as direct as fighting.
Moreover, those dozen or so young members of the family who had been eliminated were also somewhat unconvinced.
Although Qin Qing had persisted until now, it did not mean that his strength was that formidable...
After all, Qin Qing was just a Great Martial Master in the Divine Might Realm, whereas among these people, aside from a few who were at the Perfection Stage of the Divine Might Realm, the others were all Martial Dao Masters who had already condensed Golden Cores.
Especially those young members who had condensed Golden Cores believed that if they were to directly confront Qin Qing, they could win.
"Zhenglu, show this outsider some color!"
"I bet Zhenglu can defeat him within three moves!"
"Where does it need three moves? I think one is enough!"
...
The shouts were almost unanimously one-sided.
Of course, this was understandable since it was the Liu residence.
Liu Zhenglu also had a smile at the corner of his mouth as he looked at Qin Qing, "How many moves do you think you can withstand?"
Qin Qing’s eyebrows slightly raised as he looked back at Liu Zhenglu and said indifferently, "One move!"
"One move?" Liu Zhenglu burst out laughing and nodded, "It seems you at least have some self-awareness."
"No, no, no... I think you misunderstood my meaning!"
Qin Qing shook his head, "What I meant is, it will take only one move to defeat you!"
"Hahaha..."
As soon as Qin Qing said this, all the people around erupted into laughter.
Liu Zhenglu couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.
"I mean... Sister Hongxue, where did you find this oddball? He doesn’t have even a bit of self-awareness?"
Liu Baiying spoke again, taunting Liu Hongxue with his words.
Liu Hongxue did not argue back, but looked indifferently at Liu Baiying and said, "Sister Baiying, maybe you should save those words for after the two of them clash!"
With a coquettish laugh, Liu Baiying said, "Liu Hongxue, you don’t really think this Qin Qing can beat Liu Zhenglu, do you? He’s still just in the Divine Might Realm, while Zhenglu already condensed his Golden Core at the end of last year."
Liu Hongxue didn’t speak further but looked toward Qin Qing and Liu Zhenglu.
The two had already taken their places opposite each other in the arena.
Liu Zhenglu’s Martial Soul manifested around him, with Soul Power flowing through his body.
His Martial Soul was a strand of lightning.
Such a phenomenon was extremely rare and a symbol of innate talent.
For example, the Shangguan Feixing whom Qin Qing had once killed in Luochuan had a Martial Soul that was a shooting star, also a phenomenal Martial Soul.
However, in terms of talent, Shangguan Feixing couldn’t compare to Liu Zhenglu.
Talent is not only about the Martial Soul but also the perception and Refinement abilities of Spiritual Energy, as well as insight into cultivation, and so on...
For Liu Zhenglu to have reached the Golden Core Realm at his age, his talent had to be stronger than Shangguan Feixing’s, and of course, this was also due to the support of the Liu Clan, an ancient family.
Liu Zhenglu held a sword in his hand, his long robe fluttering, embodying a charismatic demeanor.
On the other side, Qin Qing was dressed in a green robe, holding the Azure Dragon Spear in his hands. His Martial Soul also manifested, though it still took the form of a Dragon Ball.
Gang Patterns interwove around him, Spiritual Power circulated, and Qin Qing’s fighting spirit quietly permeated the moment.
"Begin!"
At the order of the elder,
Qin Qing and Liu Zhenglu both moved at the same time.
With one step, Liu Zhenglu’s thunderous Martial Soul above his head suddenly burst into a hundred zhang of thunder, his body interlaced with the thunder and lightning, as if bathing in their midst.
"Hiss!"
He thrust his sword, lightning converging within the blade’s gleam, Thunder Blade flickering.
In the void, everything was suffused with electricity.
All the lightning was, at that moment, lunging towards Qin Qing.
Qin Qing, however, swept his Azure Dragon Spear horizontally.
"Fierce Dragon Spear Technique—Dragon Flame!"
Whoosh!
Azure flames exploded in an instant, the spear’s radiance dazzling.
This spear radiance collided head-on with the coming lightning sword’s radiance, suddenly striking together!
Boom, boom, boom...
The sound of a huge explosion came.
At the same time, boundless flames and lightning burst forth, spreading in all directions across the void of the Martial Arts Ground.
Once the flames and lightning had dispersed, the spectators could again clearly see the scene in the center, and they stood in shock, rooted to the spot.
They saw Liu Zhenglu lying on the ground, his hair disheveled, while Qin Qing stood beside him, towering above with the long spear in his hand pressing against Liu Zhenglu’s throat.
Liu Zhenglu had actually lost!
Qin Qing from such a small place as Qian Country had actually defeated Liu Zhenglu!
This was truly a harsh lesson for the young descendants of the Liu Clan.
It made them understand a principle: even a martial cultivator from a small place should not be underestimated by the geniuses from the ancient families!
"I told you, one move is sufficient!"
Qin Qing looked down at Liu Zhenglu on the ground with an extremely calm tone.
Immediately after, Qin Qing retracted the Azure Dragon Spear.
Liu Zhenglu stood up, his expression complex as he looked at Qin Qing.
In his eyes appeared to be unwillingness and disbelief, and of course, a greater part of it was shame.
Before this bout, he had even said Qin Qing was not worthy of being mentioned in the same breath as him and directly stated he could defeat Qin Qing with one move.
Yet the result had been completely the opposite.
"Good, the other slot for entering Tai’a Academy will go to you!" Elder Feng looked towards Qin Qing.
"Thank you, Elder Feng!" Qin Qing bowed with his hands clasped.
At this time, Liu Hongxue also hurried forward, handing over a Spirit Ring to Elder Feng.
Seeing this, Elder Feng smiled and nodded at Liu Hongxue, "I have long heard that the third miss of the Liu Clan is a heroine unlike any other; today, it seems it is indeed true."
"You flatter me too much, Elder Feng!" Liu Hongxue gave a graceful nod, her demeanor elegant and composed.
"Very well! In that case, Liu Yuanhuai and Qin Qing... Both of you, come with me back to Tai’a Academy," Elder Feng said, casting his gaze towards Qin Qing and Liu Yuanhuai.
At this time, Qin Qing spoke, "Elder Feng, I have a sister."
Qin Qing pulled Qin Shuang closer, "My sister and I are from Qian Country. If I go to Tai’a Academy, she can only come with me. May I ask if that would be permissible?"
"There is no issue. According to the rules of Tai’a Academy, Inner Sect Disciples may bring one servant with them. Your sister is not your servant, but she may also enter Tai’a Academy with you. However, once inside Tai’a Academy, neither you nor your sister can break the academy’s rules!" Elder Feng replied.
"Yes!" Qin Qing nodded.
"Then let’s leave together now!" Elder Feng waved his hand.
Qin Qing then left with Qin Shuang and Liu Yuanhuai, the three of them following Elder Feng out of the Liu residence.
Outside the Liu residence at this time, Xu Sihe had already been waiting for four days.
Besides him, there were a dozen other strong members of the Xu Clan.
When they saw Qin Qing emerge, a burst of murderous intent suddenly flashed in Xu Sihe’s crimson eyes...
