Warrior's Promise

The lightning-fast rainbow rolled in with striking momentum.

Instantly, it mounted over the mountaintop from which a silhouette of a tall young man showed up.

The man in an ochre yellow robe wore a purple gold crown, a black jade belt, and colored glaze boots.

His handsome looks and noble disposition displayed his majesty and solemnity. What an incomparably elegant youth!

"Duan Jingtian!"

"In the end, Duan Jingtian comes!"

"This peerless talent deserves such matchless elegance. He is indeed one in a million!"

"... "

The crowd exclaimed at Duan Jingtian's arrival, and at once they burst into an uproar.

Now that Duan Jingtian had come, the fight should begin!

The Yu Mountain in the limelight would witness bouts of the top talents in Skymoon Country.

Hundreds of the Sky Alliance's members hurried to the crowd and all applauded, their eyes full of reverence and worship.

Su Mo was amazed at Duan Jingtian's graceful postures up in the void.

"Duan Jingtian really deserves his reputations!"

Proudly standing in the void, Duan Jingtian looked down at the crowd and fixed his eyes onto Jin Yang.

"So many are the talents in Skymoon, only I can be God's favored one!"

Duan Jingtian lightly said, suddenly rising high into the welkin.

"So many are the talents in Skymoon, only I can be God's favored one!"

Everyone present was astounded by Duan Jingtian's confident and arrogant words.

Regarding countless talents as nothing, Duan Jingtian proclaimed himself to be the only chosen one in Skymoon Country.

God's favored one, God's chosen one!

Duan Jingtian's unparalleled confidence revealed that only he could be the most outstanding warrior in this country.

"Arrogance!"

Jin Yang said after a sneer, rising up subsequently to the front of Duan Jingtian.

Millions of people in the Yu Mountain immediately quieted down, staring at the two men up in the welkin.

Su Mo also stood up and looked at the two men who were at a stalemate.

Duan Jingtian and Jin Yang gazed into each other's eyes, and their growing fighting desires dispersed the thick clouds in the welkin.

Overwhelming aura swept widely like torrents.

At the foot of the Yu Mountain, which was several kilometers away from the two men, Su Mo still felt breathless as if pressed by a huge mountain.

"To defeat you, 30 strikes will be enough!"

Duan Jingtian said, calmly looking at Jin Yang with his startling words.

The crowd below were stunned again by Duan Jingtian's inordinate self-conceit.

Since Jin Yang was also one of the Four Talents of Skymoon Country, was that possible for Duan Jingtian to defeat him within only 30 strikes?

But for their well-matched strength, heavyweights like Duan Jingtian and Jin Yang would possibly tie in the end after hundreds or even thousands of strikes.

But according to Duan Jingtian's words, he could definitely defeat Jin Yang with only 30 strikes.

Did Duan Jingtian far exceed Jin Yang?

"What?"

Jin Yang bellowed with a sullen face. As one of the top martial artist in Skymoon Country, he shouldn't have been despised.

Jin Yang sneered and added, "Duan Jingtuan, how arrogant you are! Except Yun Jiankong, no one of our generation in this country can defeat me within 30 strikes, neither can you!"

"Shut up and fight!"

Cool and wordless, Duan Jingtian drew a brilliant pure-golden halberd.

He wielded his golden halberd, which gave off spreading golden radiances immediately. The void exploded as if there were a landslide.

"Broken!"

Jin Yang bellowed by brandishing his fiery-red saber. Formidable sword Qi of the same fiery-red blocked Duan Jingtian's attack.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Earthshaking explosions sounded, devastating gales swept in the void.

As the fierce winds blew through the Yu Mountain, many people, though several kilometers far away from the battlefield, looked pale and vomited blood for they could not bear such impacts.

"Too powerful!"

"Really horrible!"

"Is this the real strength of the Four Talents?"

The crowd became shocked, and some of the weaker martial artists even stepped back to the mountainside.

There left only relatively strong martial artists who stood still and stared at the high-altitude fight.

After tentative strikes, Duan Jingtian and Jin Yang began to go all out.

Dazzling residual shadows flew all over the void; golden radiances collided with red ones; air-tearing explosions emitted shock waves without stop.

This fight was far beyond what normal martial artists of the Spiritual Martial Realm could imagine!

Looking up at the fight, Su Mo inwardly thought with a sigh, "I'm too weak even to figure out their fast moves."

What he could see were nothing but the illuminating golden radiances, the penetrating saber radiance, and the destructive airflows generated by incessant explosions.

"I will be as mighty as them in one year!"

Su Mo murmured and walked away with no hesitation.

He came here only to see how powerful the top talents were in Skymoon Country. Now he knew fairly well.

He did not care about the outcome of their fight.

"Hey, Brother Su, why are you leaving?"

Dong Yue hastily asked when he found Su Mo was going to leave.

"I have something else to deal with, I'm leaving now."

Su Mo said with a farewell wave, and added, "Brother Dong, may we meet again some other day!"

Afterwards, Su Mo left the Yu Mountain and returned to Gale Island.

Five days later, Su Mo went back to the Waterside City, and once again took an ironclad sailboat to return to Gale Island.

Su Mo directly went to the mission palace after his arrival.

Few visitors could be seen in front of the mission palace, which was very different from the bustle of the past.

Su Mo guessed those disciples must have been spectators for that fight, which explained why there was nobody in the mission palace.

Su Mo stepped in and submitted his tasks, successfully gained 120 contribution points.

He was not quite clear how Gale Island verified whether the tasks were well accomplished. There must be available channels to confirm it, anyway.

Su Mo had still had 375 contribution points left before he came back, and now he owned altogether 495 contribution points plus the 120 ones he had newly obtained.

Tasks submitted, Su Mo went towards his dorm room.

Just as he came to his courtyard, Su Mo heard fighting noises and Li Feng's laughter.

Su Mo chuckled and shook his head, guessing Li Feng was "messing with" Niu Xiaohu.

As he expected, Su Mo saw Niu Xiaohu wildly beating Li Feng the moment he walked in.

Li Feng, looking rested with one hand behind his back, used the other hand easily fighting off Niu Xiaohu's attacks.

"Raging Bull Fist!"

Niu Xiaohu bent his body with a growl and rested his fists upon his head. Robust as a bull, he suddenly dashed to Li Feng with a quick tread.

"Good job, Xiaohu, I didn't know you could have such a powerful strike!"

Li Feng said with admiration when he observed Niu Xiaohu's attack.

Li Feng threw a thundering punch at Niu Xiaohu in a flash. Niu Xiaohu was at once knocked away and landed on his butt.

Su Mo was surprised at Li Feng's cultivation breaths, which was elevated to Lv 1 Spiritual Martial Realm.

Su Mo nodded and thought, "Li Feng possesses a Martial Soul of the Rank 7 Human Class. His initial cultivation was already approaching the Peak Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm. It's was made sense that he reached the Spiritual Martial Realm."

Niu Xiaohu had made drastic progress too. Now he went close to the Late-stage at the Lv 9 Qi Cultivation Realm.
