Time Manipulating System

Chapter 8 – The Unlucky Gu Yang?

Soon after, a white-robed youth slowly stood up.

A dark-green sword hung around his waist, and his body radiated with a transcendent aura.

Compared to the other outer disciples, he seemed more like an inner disciple.

He bowed slightly to the outer court elders and deacons, then walked towards the duelling grounds.

Instantly, the elders watching the battle on the stage all had bright eyes.

“Oh? Interesting.”

“I never thought that there would be such a genius in the outer sect?”

“This brat is the number one genius in the outer sect? From the looks of it, he is worthy of the title.” The several elders were discussing spiritedly.

Obviously, they could sense that Ding Xuan was not ordinary.

Of course, they had to watch the battle before he could make a decision.

Soon, a tiger-shaped beast appeared on the duelling field.

This fierce beast seemed wilder and stronger than the one Nie Jin had fought before.

Roar!

Seeing Ding Xuan, the beast let out a furious howl and rushed forward.

Facing the fierce beast’s pressure, Ding Xuan revealed a disdainful expression as his physical power exploded out.

After that, he stretched out his hand and waved it to easily neutralize the ferocious beast’s attack!

Upon seeing this, the elders on the stage immediately revealed the look of surprise.

“What intense physical aura!”

“An outer court disciple actually possess such dense qi and Physical Strength. He is indeed extraordinary!”

“It looks like there are quite a few methods to deal with the ferocious beast’s attacks so easily without using his qi!”

The elders nodded in satisfaction.

On the stage.

One man and one beast fought intensely.

However, everyone could tell that Ding Xuan did not use his full strength. The ferocious beast could not even touch the corner of Ding Xuan’s clothes.

One could tell from the look in Ding Xuan’s eyes.

He was enjoying the battle!

It was completely different from Nie Jin’s previous attack! This shocked countless disciples. This was their outer sect’s number one genius!

After nine short exchanges.

Ding Xuan’s actions suddenly paused as he muttered to himself,

“It’s time to end this.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he punched the beast in the head.

Rumble!

Waves of thunderous applause rang out from the side. The elders on the stage also nodded and looked at Ding Xuan with satisfaction.

The outer sect elder hurriedly opened his mouth: “Congratulations, Ding Xuan, for successfully passing the selection! Excellent!”

Hearing the outer court elder announce, Ding Xuan was not surprised at all. He raised his head, his face full of pride. To him, passing the selection was normal.

What he wanted … was not just passing the selection. The thing that he wanted was for the title of the strongest!

The strongest genius in the selection would be rewarded with 10 low-grade spirit stones! This was his goal!

In his eyes, who could compete with this group of crooked people from the outer sect?

Thinking of this, he snorted coldly and walked to the rest area.

No one cared about Ding Xuan’s pride.

A genius would always be more or less arrogant. This was very normal!

Soon, the challenge continued. But after Ding Xuan, no one succeeded.

After all, the outer court’s geniuses were limited. Only Zhao Wei, Nie Jin, and Ding Xuan could be considered geniuses.

It would be strange if the others could pass!

“It looks like the winner of this inner court selection is Ding Xuan.”

“That’s right, defeating a beast at the same realm in ten moves is already extremely abnormal!”

“Even amongst the inner court disciples, Ding Xuan is considered to be on the upper half of the average, right?”

“Ten low-grade spirit stones, Ding Xuan is going to make a fortune!”

“Is this over? You’ve already decided that Ding Xuan is the champion?”

“Haha, he’s new, right? Do you think there’s anyone who can achieve Ding Xuan’s level?”

“if you want to defeat Ding Xuan, you need to kill a ferocious beast within a few moves. Why don’t you try?”

“What if there are hidden geniuses in our outer sect?”

“Hahaha. Why didn’t you directly say that our outer sect had a Qi Condensation genius hidden? If that was the case, why doesn’t he directly show it?”

“…”

Many outer sect disciples sighed.

They were no longer interested in the challenges that would follow. After all, since the end of Ding Xuan’s challenge, there was no longer much suspense in the selection.

However, some people felt dissatisfied. The competition was not over yet, and they were already celebrating. Of course, such words were naturally wildly attacked.

Right when many disciples were discussing intensely, the deacon paid no attention to the others as he spoke calmly.

“The last contestant, Gu Yang.”

Gu Yang, who had been resting at the side, heard someone call out his name. Only then did he open his eyes and walk out.

Seeing Gu Yang come out, some disciples who recognized him widened their eyes.

“What is going on?!”

“Gu Yang had participated in the inner court selection?!”

“F*ck … Wasn’t  Gu Yang only at the 4th Body Refinement Realm!”

“Could it be … that he was hiding his strength?!”

Of course, not many people knew Gu Yang.

Most of them did not recognize him.

The outer court elder only glanced at Gu Yang indifferently.

Even though Gu Yang’s qi and strength had caused him to be slightly surprised.

But that was all.

Gu Yang slowly walked into the arena.

Soon, a ferocious beast walked out from the huge stone door.

It was huge and three meters tall.

His imposing manner was thick and heavy, instantly attracting the attention of everyone present.

“It’s the Giant Rock Tortoise!”

“Good Lord, I heard that this guy’s defence is extremely abnormal. Even some Qi Condensation cultivators can’t easily break through his defence!”

“Hahaha, this Gu Yang’s luck is too bad. He had to encounter this beast!”

Someone recognized the origin of this beast and immediately smiled.

The Giant Rock Tortoise was very powerful amongst the ferocious beasts.

It was a bit stronger than the beasts Nie Jin and Ding Xuan faced.

Especially in terms of defence, even if Ding Xuan came to challenge it, it would take a long time.

At the very least, he would not be able to defeat the opponent within ten moves!

“Looks like it’s over.”

“Look the Giant Rock Tortoise is not afraid.”

“Only Qi Condensation experts can harm it.”

On the stage.

Many elders shook their heads.

It was a pity for Gu Yang.

After all, it was very difficult for a cultivator to defeat a beast with extremely strong defence just by relying on its qi and physical strength.

Unless he used his True Qi!

Even if it was True Qi, it needed to be sufficiently pure and dense! Otherwise, it would be very difficult to succeed! Therefore, when the Giant Rock Tortoise appeared.

There was no suspense in the outcome. Gu Yang had no chance!

As for Gu Yang, who was standing on the stage, he calmly raised his head to look at the huge creature slowly approaching him.

However, in his eyes, this giant rock Tortoise … seemed to be only a bit large.

Thinking of this, he immediately attacked.

In the next moment, Gu Yang appeared in front of the giant rock Tortoise.

Without any hesitation, he used his Vajra Fist and struck the head of the giant rock Tortoise with his full strength!
