Chapter 4043: Puzzled

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

w.a.n.g Xiong was not famous in the Frozen Mountain Manor in the past, let alone the Feudal Lord Mansion. Many people had heard of him, but they a.s.sumed he was just an ordinary prodigy. However, during the Seven Mansions Manor, everyone realized he was much stronger than they had imagined and that he had been hiding his strength all this time. Perhaps, he had hidden his strength for so long just to reveal it during the Seven Mansions Feast.

Previously, when w.a.n.g Xiong had been selected as a seeded partic.i.p.ant, it had confused many young disciples in the Frozen Mountain Manor. Similar to the others, they had no idea that he was so strong and that he had been hiding his strength.

Initially, there were quite a few young prodigies who were unconvinced when w.a.n.g Xiong was selected as a seeded partic.i.p.ant. However, after he displayed his strength, he had silenced their doubts and completely convinced them. Now that he was in the top ten, they even felt proud that they had such a prodigy in their Frozen Mountain Manor. This was only natural since they were from the same force,

At this moment, one of the two top young prodigies from the Feudal Lord Mansion looked at w.a.n.g Xiong solemnly and said, w.a.n.g Xiong, I didnt know there was such an outstanding disciple in the Frozen Mountain Manor. You hid your strength really well.

As one of the two strongest young prodigies in the Feudal Lord Mansion, he was naturally arrogant. He had never heard of w.a.n.g Xiong in the past, and now, w.a.n.g Xiong wanted to challenge him. Once w.a.n.g Xiong defeated him, he would no longer be known as one of the two strongest young prodigies in the Feudal Lord Mansion. It was only normal that he was unhappy.

!!

w.a.n.g Xiong smiled slightly and said, Im a n.o.body so its only normal that youve never heard of me.

A n.o.body? w.a.n.g Xiongs opponent laughed. How could a n.o.body obtain a token in the twenties? How could a n.o.body enter the top ten during the first stage to determine the ranking?

Clearly, w.a.n.g Xiongs words had provoked his opponent. After a moment, he took a deep breath and said, Lets cut to the chase and decide the winner. I really want to witness the strength of the prodigy of our Feudal Lord Mansion who had hidden his strength so well.

As soon as w.a.n.g Xiongs opponents voice fell, his Divine Energy and profundities from the law burst forth from his body. His aura was incredibly strong. Without hesitation, he shot toward w.a.n.g Xiong like a lightning bolt, striking first to gain the upper hand. He did not dare to underestimate w.a.n.g Xiong. After all, w.a.n.g Xiongs defenses were extremely high. He was not confident about breaking w.a.n.g Xiongs defenses.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The fight was fierce. Shockwaves rippled out as the two opponents clashed.

Lin Dong Lai, the elder from the Howling Flames Sect who was an intermediate Emperor of G.o.ds, easily neutralized the shockwaves as the duo fought. With his presence, the shockwaves from the fight would not be able to hurt the others. Even if the duo attacked the spectators, it would be difficult for them to do so with him keeping watch.

In fact, this prodigy whos known as one of the strongest young prodigies in the Feudal Lord Mansion is quite deserving of this t.i.tle.

Previously, the other strongest prodigy from the Feudal Lord Mansion, whos ranked fourth, was defeated so quickly by Luo Yuan so I thought that the rumor was exaggerated. Now that I think about it, perhaps it was not that he was not as strong as the rumor said. Its just that Luo Yuan is too strong!

Thats right. Based on this persons strength, number 4 isnt weak at all. He was only defeated so quickly because Luo Yuan was too strong.

w.a.n.g Xiongs opponent, the eighth partic.i.p.ant from the Feudal Lord Mansion, surprised everyone with his strength. This made the others rethink their judgment about the fourth partic.i.p.ant from the Feudal Lord Mansion, who was on par with the eighth partic.i.p.ant.

With this, the expression of the fourth partic.i.p.ant from the Feudal Lord Mansion, who had been mocked earlier, eased greatly.

All of you finally understand now. Its not that Im weak. Its just that Luo Yuan is too strong! Moreover, I was defeated so quickly because I was careless as well! I didnt expect him to attack with all his might so quickly so I was caught off guard. If I didnt let down my guard, I wouldve been able to withstand more than ten moves. That aside, it seems like the two of us arent a match for w.a.n.g Xiong as well

The fourth partic.i.p.ant from the Feudal Lord Mansion who was on par with the eighth partic.i.p.ant continued to watch the fight. At the same time, he sighed inwardly. He thought to himself with a bitter smile on his face, Initially, I thought Id be able to rank in the top three. Now, it seems like Id be lucky if Im able to rank in the top ten. w.a.n.g Xiong is very strong. Yang Qian Ye is also very strong. As for the others, I have no hope of defeating them. There are also Yuan Mo Yu and Wanqi Hong who are still making their way to the top ten. If we cant defeat w.a.n.g Xiong, we can forget about ranking in the top 8; if we cant defeat Yang Qian Ye, we can forget about ranking in the top 9. Theres also He Yu Xi, whos recognized as the strongest young prodigy in the Consonance Mansion, before the appearance of Han Di from the United Heavens Sect. Im not sure Ill be able to defeat He Yu Xi. In short, its going to be difficult for us to rank in the top ten.

While the fourth partic.i.p.ant was lost in his thoughts, the fight on the battlefield suddenly changed.

w.a.n.g Xiong, who had been on the defensive, suddenly launched a counterattack on his opponent. After three moves, his opponent suffered minor injuries. In contrast, his face was only slightly flushed from the exertion.

Seeing that w.a.n.g Xiong had switched to the offensive and was about to attack again, his opponent said, I surrender.

The eighth partic.i.p.ant knew it was best for him to surrender to avoid more injuries. He no longer dared to continue the fight. After all, he was not confident he would be able to defeat w.a.n.g Xiong. It was best to cut the loss and conserve his strength to avoid affecting his performance later. He thought to himself, I have no chance of ranking in the top three, but I have to do my best to rank in the top ten. I cant afford to get injured at the critical moment.

Earlier in the morning, the eighth partic.i.p.ants elders had also advised him to surrender if he could not win the fight and to think of the bigger picture.

Meanwhile, w.a.n.g Xiongs victory stirred up a commotion among those from the Feudal Lord Mansions Frozen Manor Mountain. They were elated that they had such an outstanding prodigy in the Frozen Manor Mountain. He had completely surpa.s.sed the two strongest young prodigies in the Feudal Lord Mansion. From now on, the strongest young prodigy in the Feudal Lord Mansion was w.a.n.g Xiong from their Frozen Mountain Manor.

He won!

Brother w.a.n.g Xiong won!

With w.a.n.g Xiongs strength, it wont be a problem for him to rank in the top ten, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself after watching this fight. He had briefly seen the beads of sweat on w.a.n.g Xiongs forehead before w.a.n.g Xiongs Divine Energy evaporated it. He could tell that although w.a.n.g Xiong did not use all his strength during this fight, he had attacked with almost all of his strength.

At this time, w.a.n.g Xiong had already exchanged his token with his opponent. He rose to eighth place while his opponent fell to tenth place.

Following that, it was finally Yang Qian Yes turn.

Is Yang Qian Ye going to forfeit his turn?

Although Yang Qian Ye had displayed his amazing strength earlier, most people thought that he was at most on par with the former two strongest young prodigies in the Feudal Lord Mansion. w.a.n.g Xiongs opponent was now in eighth place, ahead of Yang Qian Ye who was in ninth place. As such, they thought it would be best for him to forfeit his turn now. Even the young disciples from the Pure Yang Sect thought so.

To everyones surprise, after entering the battlefield, Yang Qian Ye said, I challenge partic.i.p.ant number four.

Everyone began to discuss this unexpected turn animatedly among themselves.

Does this mean that Yang Qian Ye has yet to use all his strength earlier?

In just a moment, the fourth partic.i.p.ant, the other strongest young prodigy from the Feudal Lord Mansion who was ranked fourth, entered the battlefield. Soon enough, everyones speculations were confirmed. Indeed, Yang Qian Ye had been holding back during his earlier fights. His attacks now were much stronger than before. It did not take too long before he finally defeated his opponent.

Yang Qian Yes not weaker than w.a.n.g Xiong!

I wonder if this is the extent of his strength

Yang Qian Ye is also from the Eastern Ridge Mansions Pure Yang Sect, right? This time, there are two outstanding prodigies from the Pure Yang Sect!

Thats right. Ive only heard about Duan Ling Tian, but Ive never heard about this Yang Qian Ye until now.

Unlike Duan Ling Tian who had long become famous in the Seven Mansions, Yang Qian Ye was only known to those top forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion. After all, they had tried to recruit him in the past. However, although he was outstanding, he was not heaven-defying or particularly special. Hence, they had only sent ordinary elders to recruit him. Who knew such a person was in fact a hidden gem?

At this time, an Emperor of G.o.ds from the Seven Kill Valley looked puzzled as he said, If Im not mistaken, my granddisciple sent someone to recruit Yang Qian Ye previously. Based on his judgment, Yang Qian Yes talent and comprehension are good, but its only slightly above average. How did he become so strong?

It was not just those from the Seven Kills Valley, the people from the other top forces in the Eastern Ridge Mansion such as the Dragon Martial Divine Sect, the Alliance of Benevolence and Justice, and the Wanqi clan were puzzled as well. Based on their previous a.s.sessment, Yang Qian Ye was only slightly above average.

At the same time, Duan Ling Tian thought to himself, The Supreme Divine Mansion helped Yang Qian Ye grow so strong in such a short time?

Duan Ling Tian could not help but grow excited again when he thought about the possibility of entering the Supreme Divine Mansion after the end of the Seven Mansions Feast. Perhaps, his improvements would far surpa.s.s those of Yang Qian Ye.
