Chapter 610: Chapter 600 One-star Martial Saint Realm

As Marquis Zi Xiao of Zi Qing faced the fact that he couldn’t accept his defeat, his angry howl erupted. A young, melodious voice rang out before him, "You useless trash, you’ve lost!"

After the voice fell, a sequence of leisurely footsteps followed.

Zi Xiao looked ahead and glared fiercely at the slowly approaching figure clad in blood-colored garb, like a wild beast gone mad, and once again bellowed,

"No! I haven’t lost! I haven’t lost at all! I, Zi Xiao, am the true champion of this contest, and only I, Zi Xiao, am worthy of Linglong. All of you can only tarnish her with your filthy bodies!

No one but me, Zi Xiao, is worthy of obtaining Linglong! Worthy of touching Linglong!"

"You trash, are even less worthy!" Shi Feng, looking down, gazed at Zi Xiao, who was thrashing like a mad dog, and spoke coldly. Then, he bent his finger, and a flame-like blood-colored blaze promptly emerged at his fingertips.

With a gentle flick, the blood-colored blaze shot from Shi Feng’s fingertip, tracing a beautiful arc through the void, before falling toward Zi Xiao, who lay prostrate on the ground.

"No!" Watching the descending blood-colored flame, Zi Xiao’s eyes bulged outrageously, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets, emitting a scream filled with horror.

Zi Xiao understood what it would mean for that cluster of blood-colored flames to land on his body!

However, no matter how much Zi Xiao howled, it was all in vain. The blood-colored blaze drifted down gently, settling upon him.

"Ah! Ahhh! Ahhhh!" Again, a series of shrill, agonized screams echoed from Arena 10 and, with those screams, Zi Xiao instantly turned into a mass of blood-colored fiery flames, burning fiercely upon the arena.

By now, everyone knew that this intense battle had been decided! The final loser was none other than the powerful Marquis Zi Qing, Zi Xiao!

Shi Feng coldly watched the human-shaped blood-colored blaze burning on the ground; the battle was concluded.

Soon, the agonizing cries of the human-shaped blood-colored blaze faded, and the blazing flames on the ground rolled back towards Shi Feng, being absorbed by his flesh.

Then, under the gaze of thousands, people saw that the evil demon, who had just advanced the day before, had killed Zi Xiao today and was suddenly enveloped in a white glow, the same advancing light as yesterday!

Following that, an incredibly overwhelming and powerful aura rose up from Shi Feng’s body.

Having devoured the Power of Death, Soul Power, and blood of a Two-star Martial Saint like Zi Xiao, Shi Feng had successfully entered the Martial Saint Realm and become a One-star Martial Saint powerhouse!

"He’s advanced again! He has advanced again! He just advanced yesterday, and now, in only one day’s time, he has advanced again, how... how is that possible!"

"Moreover, when he killed Wang Cong yesterday, a white light of advancement shone upon him, and today when he killed Zi Xiao, the advancing light reappeared. Could it be that his advancement comes through killing? What kind of cultivation technique is he practicing?"

"Advancing through killing! This is unheard of!"

"He’s dead! Zi Xiao, the highly ranked Martial Arts prodigy of the Tianlan Empire, is dead!"

Below the arena, the crowd looking up at Arena 10 erupted into an uproar, buzzing with unceasing discussions, suggesting the commotion was far from over.

"I’ve finally stepped into the Saint Realm!" Shi Feng clenched his fist in secret, sensing his power at this moment.

A year had almost passed since his rebirth, and during this year, he had finally cultivated both Martial Arts and Soul Power to the Saint Realm!

"Though I’ve entered the Saint Realm, I am still too weak!" Shi Feng muttered to himself, dissatisfied. As a former Nine-star Peak Martial Emperor, a One-star Martial Saint Realm was indeed far too weak!

With his current strength, he was still utterly incapable of avenging his past self and eradicating those trash Martial Emperors.

The turmoil in Undying Mountain might very well be related to the powerful Blood Pattern Tribe of the Ancient Period. After the Tianlan Empire affairs are settled, with his current power, he likely wouldn’t be able to help his disciple Luo Qingchuan much.

He had to keep getting stronger!

"In the battle of Arena 10, the winner—Arena Master of Arena 10!" At this moment, the judge looking like a scholar announced the verdict above Arena 10!

"He actually won! He actually killed Marquis Zi Qing, but... his face was ruined, he has become so ugly, I must report this to the Princess as soon as possible!"

In the crowd, a figure clad in emerald green murmured as she gazed at Arena 10. Then she turned and squeezed through the crowd, heading toward the Imperial Palace.

..

"Princess... it’s not good, Princess..." Within the Imperial Palace Garden, a figure in emerald green was running frantically, darting between the flowers and trees.

"Ah?" A pale figure seated in a pavilion was startled by the panicking emerald figure and the distressed cries, causing her complexion to change drastically.

Jin Mo hastily stood up from the stone bench, and as the emerald figure approached, she quickly grasped the palace maid Little Cui’s hand, asking, "Speak quickly, what on earth has happened!"

Seeing the palace maid Little Cui like this, a sense of foreboding immediately surfaced in Jin Mo’s heart, "Seeing her like this, could it be that he, something happened to him?"

"Prin... Princess... no... no... it’s... bad..." The palace maid Little Cui, panting heavily, managed to get the words out in short gasps.

"Ah? Speak properly! What exactly happened? Tell me!" Seeing Little Cui’s state, Jin Mo grew even more anxious and pressed for answers.

Suddenly, Jin Mo realized something and quickly reached out to pick up a teacup from the stone table in the pavilion, handing it to Little Cui.

Little Cui took the teacup and gulped down the tea, "gulp, gulp"! After catching her breath, she looked much better.

Putting the teacup back on the stone table, Little Cui informed Jin Mo, "Princess, it’s not good. The battle between him and Marquis Zi Qing, the result, the result..."

"What has happened? Say it already!" Then, Jin Mo suddenly gasped, thinking of something, and asked hurriedly, "Could it be... could it be that he was killed by that bastard Zi Xiao!"

"That... that’s not it," Little Cui quickly shook her head and said. Then she added, "Marquis Zi Qing, he was killed by him!"

"What! He killed Zi Xiao!" Jin Mo was extremely surprised to hear this news, unable to believe that he could really kill Zi Xiao. He had become so powerful in such a short amount of time!

Then, Jin Mo looked again at Little Cui and asked, "Since he killed Zi Xiao, why do you say it’s not good? You don’t seem to have any connection to Zi Xiao, do you? Could it be, you little girl, are secretly in love with Zi Xiao?"
