Chapter 778 - 778 Duel (Part 1)

778 Duel (Part 1)

Neither of these two women linked Qi Le to the disciple of the Xuan Gate sect.

Even though Qi Le’s mother had changed his name before she died, to them, he was just a piece of trash.

There was no way someone like him could ever become a disciple of the Xuan Gate sect.

“Let Li Qiu challenge him to test his strength,” Madam Li ordered.

!!

Li Qiu was one of the geniuses of the Li family.ReadNovelFull.com

However, he was from a branch family.

He was 800 years old and had reached the 15th level of the Dao realm.

“As for the family head…”

The maid hesitated.

The Li family attached great importance to this challenge.

In order to protect the Li family’s reputation and image, they did not want to take advantage of Qi Le and send disciples to test his strength.

If they did so, it would give others the impression that the Li family was not confident in Li Tianlong’s ability.

Madam Li said after a moment of silence, “Then find the disciples who are not from the Li family.”

At this critical juncture, a genius of the Xuan Gate sect suddenly appeared and challenged the disciples of the Li family. This matter had aroused her suspicion.

The maidservant knew what Madam Li was worried about.

They were afraid that Qi Le would be too strong and Li Tianlong would be defeated.

Li Tianlong was her precious treasure.

“Yes, my lady.”

The maidservant nodded and was about to leave to make the arrangements, when a voice rang out.

“There’s no need for that.”

Li Wufeng stepped in.

“No matter who wins or loses, Tianlong is still a genius.”

Li Wufeng sat down on a chair and said, “Testing Qi Le will only ruin Tianlong’s reputation and confidence. It’s even worse than losing fair and square.”

“Then we’ll do as you say,” Madam Li said with a nod.

It was indeed true. Even if Li Tianlong lost, he would have lost to a disciple of the Xuan Gate sect, which was not a shameful thing as long as the battle went well.

The Li family had already begun to make preparations for either outcome.

Once the news of the duel’s date and venue were announced, it threw the inhabitants of the central section into an uproar, and countless forces and geniuses flocked to the venue.

More than Li Tianlong, everyone was curious to see how powerful the newest disciple of the Xuan Gate sect was.

Could every disciple trained by the Xuan Gate sect be a genius?

Although the Xuan Gate sect was mysterious and powerful, it had never done anything like bullying the weak.

The rise of Yi Lingling and Xue Ping had been a result of their efforts. They fought, fled and sometimes almost died, but they persevered. Many geniuses looked up to them and idolized them, choosing to walk in their footsteps, and eschew the protection of their sects.

They wanted to prove to the world that they too were on par with Yi Lingling and Xue Ping.

It was only in the past 10,000 years that a few geniuses had suddenly emerged that they had the ability to compete with Yi Lingling and Xue Ping, which gave countless geniuses great confidence.

Now, they were about to witness the emergence of the Xuan Gate sect’s third disciple!

Some of them were proud and arrogant, thinking that they were born at the wrong time and thus could not compete with Yi Lingling and Xue Ping.

However, with Qi Le’s appearance, they could all vie for supremacy against him instead and use him as a stepping stone to rise.

The location of the final battle was an ancient battlefield in the central section, which was one of the places where the great battle took place.

After countless years, the remnant power had already disappeared.

However, the ground was as smooth as a mirror, but also extremely hard. Even a Saint Dao King’s attack could not leave a mark on the mirror-smooth ground.

This ancient battlefield was also a popular choice of dueling ground among the geniuses.

There was still one day before the battle, but many cultivators had already arrived.

Other than human martial artists, there were also fey!

The Heavenly Sun World was ruled by humans, but it was not as if there were no other races. The fey race was also one of the most powerful races.

Before the great battle, the various races of the Heavenly Sun World had fought for supremacy, and there were many powerful races then.

At some point, the races that did not belong to the fey race in the past joined the fey race. They were united as one to fight against the human race.

As time passed, it brought about the current situation, where there were two powerful races in the Heavenly Sun World. The human race, and the fey race.

The other smaller races were all ignored.

In the sky, a snow-white bird of prey flew over like a stream of light.

It landed on the ground and transformed into a white-robed young man.

He was a famous genius of the fey race.
