The Strength of the Top 100 Talents

Su Mo left the stone room and strode towards those who were fighting. Now that he had entered the True Spirit Realm, his ability spiked by ten-fold. No one would be able to take away what he wanted.

The young man that snatched the armor was very tenacious and strong. Surrounded by over 30 opponents and violently spitting blood from all of his wounds, he still stubbornly held on to the prize.

Swish!

Su Mo made a dash for the young man. His speed had more than doubled since his cultivation had progressed.

"Swirling Winds and Clouds!"

Su Mo slashed with his sword, and the sword Qi directly hit the young man's chest.

This move was launched at the exact moment the young man was too busy to deal with Su Mo's attack.

Puff!

The sword Qi left a deep and long mark on the man's chest, and the wound started to spout blood.

"Ah!" Screaming painfully, the young man was sent flying. He crashed against the wall at the end of the passageway and cracked it, even though the wall was under a formation seal.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The others followed him closely. Their strikes tore the young man apart at once.

Swoosh!

Su Mo was quicker than any of them. He flashed across the passage and pocketed the young man's storage ring.

"How dare you. Hand over the leather armor!"

"Hand over the storage ring!"

The other men snarled and sprinted toward Su Mo.

Su Mo laughed contemptuously at their ignorance, feeling though he may as well kill them all.

Three of them were core disciples of Gale Island whom Su Mo did not know, so he had no trouble killing them.

Suddenly, a dull sound of footsteps was heard from the left passageway.

The sound was quiet but overbearing as if someone was stepping on their chests.

Everyone was alarmed and came to a stop.

Then, a short and stocky young man in a blue robe appeared.

Everyone was horrified, except for Su Mo.

"Feng Xiu! Rank 78th on the List of Top 100 Talents!" Su Mo thought with a frown.

This man was one of the top 100 martial artists and ranked far higher than Leng Yunfeng and Xin Wuming.

"Give me all the treasures you've found in this territory!" Feng Xiu said calmly, glancing around expressionlessly.

His tone was not harsh, yet it was demanding and authoritative.

Everyone grew pale, and after some hesitation, they yielded. Some of them started walking up to Feng Xiu.

No one dared to escape or defy Feng Xiu, for they knew how strong he was.

He was not only 78th on the List of Top 100 Talents, but he was also the top young martial artist in the seven countries in South of Yan River.

They all heard that although Feng Xiu was merciless, he was not bloodthirsty. He would spare those who obeyed him.

Of course, if someone dared to defy him, then they were done for.

Hence, despite their reluctance, they handed over their spoils to save their lives.

Since they entered the Ethereal Territory, they had more or less gained something.

As others were approaching Feng Xiu, Su Mo was noticeably left standing alone.

Feng Xiu turned to look at Su Mo. "Why are you standing still?"

"Why should I go over?" Su Mo asked.

His words took the other people by surprise. How could he speak to Feng Xiu like that? Was he not afraid?

"Well, don't you know that a man who does not know his place always dies the earliest?" Feng Xiu asked, shocked that Su Mo did not fear him.

"Really?" Su Mo shrugged carelessly.

"If you can take one move of mine, just one move, I'll spare you," said Feng Xiu flatly.

"Bring it on!" Su Mo answered coldly.

Although he did not think that he could defeat this man, he was confident he could take one move.

Feng Xiu's eyes flickered with uncertainty. "He is only at Lv 1 True Spirit Realm, and he knows that I'm listed in the Top 100 Talents, but he is still so sure of himself. Why is he so confident? Does he really think that he is a match for me?"

Feng Xiu chuckled. "I must say, you're brave. If you can take one punch of mine, I'll leave you alone."

He did not take Su Mo seriously at all. Even if Su Mo was at Lv 3 True Spirit Realm, his fist could easily still crush him.

Buzz! Buzz!

Su Mo did not respond, but he showed his confidence with his Spirit-slayer Sword, which began furiously emitting sword radiance.

"Take this move!" Feng Xiu threw out a punch. The earth-shattering fist force blasted the stone walls around it as it shot forward.

This move was strong enough to blow up an ordinary Lv 4 True Spirit Realm fighter and even shatter a hill.

The coming punch was extremely overbearing. Su Mo narrowed his eyes and mustered up his strength. A spectacular radiance burst out of his blade as if he himself had become a razor-sharp sword.

Swoosh!

A stunning light cut through the air like a flashing silver thread.

Bong! Bong! Bong!

Ceaseless explosions shattered the stone walls of the passage.

Swoosh!

Su Mo was catapulted into a wall about a hundred meters behind him, which left deep cracks.

"You really live up to your ranking!" With that, Su Mo slipped into a side passageway and disappeared.

Everyone's jaw dropped. That young man actually survived one of Feng Xiu's strikes!

It was unbelievable!

If some renowned expert had done this, they would not be so surprised. However, Su Mo was only a nobody. How could he do that?

"Interesting. He used sword will!" Instead of being annoyed by Su Mo's disappearance, Feng Xiu smiled slightly.

This Lv 1 True Spirit Realm martial artist not only understood sword will, but also parried his strike that he had launched with one-third of his strength. He was indeed out of the ordinary.

...

However, Su Mo, who was hiding in another passageway, looked grave. He found he had underestimated the real strength of those on the list.

One of their random strikes was enough to wound him. If it were not for his strong body defense, he could have suffered a much more severe wound.

"I must grow stronger. Now that I'm in the True Spirit Realm, I can

Su Mo soon found a spacious stone room, took out dozens of thousands of Lower Spiritual Stones and started to absorb their Spiritual Qi.

Boom!

As endless amounts of Spiritual Qi entered Su Mo's body, causing his cultivation to begin rapidly growing.

Su Mo's nine Spiritual Spirals now consumed Spiritual Qi at an incredible speed.

It only took him 15 minutes to use up more than 1 million Lower Spiritual Stones. However, he only progressed a little into the late-stage of Lv 1 True Spirit Realm.
