9: Chapter 9 I'm fighting Mu Xue, is it for real?

[Many people gathered around.]

["That is a Prodigy from the Dragon Group, right?" someone said while looking at you.]

["As expected of the Dragon Group, they really are full of hidden talents."]

["The Dragon Group now has three Transcendent Prodigies. It looks like they'll take at least three of the top four spots."]

["No need to say that. First place is definitely Mu Xue from the Dragon Group. The remaining three are hard to say."]

["In the past, once you reached the Transcendent Realm, you were guaranteed a spot in the top three, or even first place. I didn't expect there to be four Transcendent Prodigies this time."]

["It's a pity for Chen Tianxiao of the Liehuo Sect."]

["The competition hasn't even started yet. Besides, that Genius from the Dragon Group just had a Breakthrough. It's hard to say who will win or lose."]

["Regardless, they all have a brighter future than you guys. Look at you all—some of you are nearly sixty and still haven't reached the Transcendent Realm."]

[...]

[You looked at the big man in front of you: "Do you still want to fight?"]

[Those who haven't reached the Grandmaster Realm are ultimately just ants. Although the Transcendent Realm is still one Realm away from the Grandmaster Realm, it is still an existence capable of founding a Sect in the Martial Artist world.]

[The strongest members of some small Sects are only at the Transcendent Realm, just like you.]

[Once you reach the Transcendent Realm, you can at least be called a Great Master!]

[Therefore, you are now a Transcendent Great Master!]

"Transcendent Realm, finally broke through." Lin Heng rubbed his head and thought. After a year, he had finally reached the Transcendent Realm. However, he was now lost in thought, wondering if he could choose this cultivation level.

The simulator didn't seem to have an option for this. The only thing similar was option two, but these matters could be dealt with later.

His self in the simulator was only twenty-six; by then, he should be able to reach the Innate Realm, right?

[The big man heard your words and broke out in a cold sweat. With the Transcendent Realm's Internal Energy projection, he knew that no matter what, he couldn't beat you.]

[But opportunities to spar with a Transcendent Realm expert were rare.]

["Please, Senior, grant me your guidance!" the other party said.]

["Please." You gestured with your hand, adopting the posture of an expert.]

["Fierce Tiger Fist!" the opponent shouted, and a phantom of a tiger actually condensed behind him.]

[You stood in place, your posture as straight as a pine, with not a ripple of emotion on your Face.]

["Slow, too slow. You finally understood why Mu Xue always called you trash."]

["Looking at it now, the you who hadn't broken through was not much different from trash in the eyes of a Transcendent Realm expert."]

[You simply extended one finger.]

[Internal Energy condensed on your fingertip.]

[The big man's fist collided with your fingertip.]

[With a "Bang!", the big man's fist was blocked by your single finger.]

[The other party paused, disbelief in his eyes.]

["I concede," the big man said.]

[You won.]

[Logically, you would still need to participate in one more match to advance to the top eight.]

[But because you had broken through to the Transcendent Realm.]

[You advanced directly.]

["You broke through?" Mu Xue leaned in to look at you.]

["Don't tell me you haven't broken through yet?" You looked at Mu Xue and said the words you had been holding back: "Don't tell me there are still people who haven't broken through!"]

[Upon hearing your words, Mu Xue's Face turned slightly red.]

[When you were in the Ming Realm, she was in the Transcendent Realm. Now that you were in the Transcendent Realm, she was still in the Transcendent Realm.]

["How could the Innate Realm be that easy to break through to!" Mu Xue seemed to have Life Qi and turned her head away, ignoring you further.]

[The afternoon competition began.]

[Your first opponent was a woman at the Peak of the Dark Realm.]

[Upon seeing that her opponent was you, she immediately conceded.]

[You four Transcendent Realm experts didn't encounter each other in the first match. You wondered if the people from Danwang Valley had done it on purpose.]

[Your opponent for the second match was Mu Xue!]

["I'm fighting you?" You looked at Mu Xue on the arena stage, looking surprised.]

["Big Sister, can you go easy on me?" You pleaded with Mu Xue.]

[Although you were both great experts of the Transcendent Realm, there were still gaps within the Transcendent Realm.]

["You're the Big Sister! I'm a year younger than you, okay?" Mu Xue said with Life Qi.]

["Then Little Sister, can you go easy on me?" you corrected.]

[Mu Xue: "..."]

[You were thrown by Mu Xue eight times, with absolutely no power to fight back.]

[Main body, hurry and write this down.]

[You shouted in your heart.]

"I think it's too embarrassing; I don't want to write it down." Although Lin Heng said that, he still took out his small notebook and recorded the event.

[You wanted to concede, but Mu Xue didn't give you the chance.]

[The referee didn't dare to intervene.]

[The referee was only at the Middle Stage of the Transcendent Realm, and Mu Xue was two minor stages higher than him.]

[Finally, she threw you for the ninth time.]

[Mu Xue rubbed her hands: "He concedes."]

["One day, I will make you sing 'Conquer' in front of me!" you shouted.]

["What did you say?" Mu Xue took a candy out of her pocket and looked at you.]

["I have been conquered by you, Big Sister Mu Xue." You knew that you were a wise person who knew when to yield.]

["Get lost!" Mu Xue said.]

[Danwang Valley lived up to its name; they fed you a Medicinal Pill.]

[In just ten minutes, you recovered to your original state.]

[On the other side, Chen Tianxiao and Zhang Hao were locked in a fierce battle.]

[The spectators offstage kept cheering.]

[However, in the end, Zhang Hao was slightly better.]

[Next was your battle with Chen Tianxiao.]

["Please," Chen Tianxiao said.]

[He had red hair and carried a large sword on his back; he looked very formidable.]

[After just ten moves, you conceded.]

"Are you kidding me, bro?" Lin Heng frowned upon seeing this: "Why are you such trash!"

[Perhaps because you had just broken through, you were not yet skilled in using your Internal Energy.]

[After exchanging blows, you realized that the opponent was invincible.]

[Perhaps out of respect for the Dragon Group's Face, he didn't knock you off the stage directly, but instead fought you in the form of guidance.]

[You felt a bit ashamed, so you conceded.]

["What a piece of trash!" Mu Xue came over and said to you, her gaze still arrogant.]

["I just broke through, isn't it normal that I can't win?" you said.]

["When I first broke through to the Transcendent Realm, I could already fight against veteran Transcendent Realm experts," Mu Xue said: "Here."]

[She handed you a lollipop.]

[You often saw her with a lollipop in her mouth, but this was the first time she had given one to you.]

[You were a bit suspicious: "You didn't poison it, did you?"]

["Forget it if you don't want it!" Mu Xue said with Life Qi.]

["I want it, I want it!" You took the lollipop.]

[There are three great illusions in life, and one of them is: "Could it be that she likes me?"]

[You couldn't help but think, does Mu Xue actually like you?]

[You didn't eat the lollipop, but instead put it into your pocket.]

[The Pill King Competition ended.]

[You took fourth place.]

["Let us welcome Lord Pill King!" the presiding referee said.]

[Suddenly, a beam of white light descended from the sky.]

["Whoa, is this guy really that pretentious?"]

[You said, looking at the man slowly walking out from within the beam of light.]

[The other party was the Pill King.]

[He was a Innate Grandmaster.]
