Chapter 50: I Can Try to Kill You Too, the High Praise from the True Martial Saint Lord!

Looking at the True Martial Saint Lord who walked out of the void, Qin Xuan felt a terrifying sense of pressure hit him at once.

That scary aura was like facing a deep abyss or prison, and even Qin Xuan felt a bit breathless.

It was a King Realm Expert of the Star River Realm!

A real monarch!

This showed the strength of the ruler of a Holy Land!

But even though the True Martial Saint Lord gave Qin Xuan a lot of pressure, Qin Xuan still felt no fear at all.

In this world, no one could make him bow his head!

He reached out and gripped the hilt of the Great Que Sword on his back, and the Dragon Aura inside him surged like a volcano ready to erupt.

The Imperial Dragon Three Steps still had one last step to go, which could boost his power by a hundred times!

Plus, he had a sword strike he’d been nurturing for hundreds of days with the Sword-Nurturing Art. Even a Star River Realm Monarch might not be impossible for him to kill!

“I can try to kill you too!” he said, his eyes sharp and ready as he stared at the True Martial Saint Lord.

Boom!

As soon as he spoke, it caused a wave of noise among the disciples.

“Holy crap? Is Qin Xuan crazy? Does he even know who he’s facing?”

“Exactly! The True Martial Saint Lord is a Star River Realm Monarch! He’s nothing like Marquis Realm Elders!”

“But honestly, just daring to say that to the True Martial Saint Lord takes real courage! That alone earns my respect!”

“True! I used to think Qin Xuan was just arrogant and showing off, but today, I see that his pride is just right!”

“Come on! If I could break through to the Third Layer Sword Intent in the Grotto-Heaven Realm and have the strength to kill Elder Gu, I wouldn’t just be proud—I’d slap any dog that walked by!”

“Too small! Think bigger! If it were me, I wouldn’t just slap dogs—I’d slap Elder Liang Ting if he passed by!”

“Amazing! Only you would say that!”

This time, after Qin Xuan spoke about killing the True Martial Saint Lord, the disciples didn’t have their earlier disbelief or scorn.

Instead, they all felt respect for Qin Xuan because saying that while facing a Star River Realm Monarch was huge bravery!

“Oh? Kill me?” said the True Martial Saint Lord upon hearing it. His gentle, smiling face went blank as he looked expressionlessly at Qin Xuan.

And with the True Martial Saint Lord’s gaze, a huge and terrifying pressure suddenly burst out like a raging tide and crashed toward Qin Xuan.

Seeing this, Qin Xuan’s eyes grew sharp as he stared straight at the True Martial Saint Lord.

A cold, fierce Sword Intent exploded and clashed with the massive pressure in mid-air.

Boom, boom, boom!!

One roar after another sounded, as just their staring eyes stirred up waves of air between them, carrying strong energy currents.

Like this, with both their auras and pressures rising steadily, powerful ripples of energy swept through all of Array Path Peak.

The disciples on the ground, along with Su Jiang, Liu Qiyue, Xia Qingcheng, and the four women, plus the Elders and Deacons, all watched the two in the sky intently now.

One was a newly joined disciple of the Holy Land; the other was the True Martial Saint Lord ruling the whole True Martial Sacred Land!

Their statuses were like heaven and earth apart, yet they faced each other in the void, stirring everyone’s excitement.

So, as Qin Xuan and the True Martial Saint Lord got ready and held their positions for dozens of breaths, everyone thought they were about to fight next.

But to everyone’s surprise, the True Martial Saint Lord, who had been radiating a scary aura, suddenly drew all his majesty and energy back.

He smiled gently again and said to Qin Xuan, “Good! Since I started ruling the Holy Land—no, since I began training!—in talent and character, you’re the most Monstrous Prodigy I’ve ever seen!”

“If you weren’t so new, I’d want to give you my role as Sacred Lord right now!”

Hah!

As the True Martial Saint Lord spoke, the disciples burst into shock!

The most Monstrous Prodigy he’d seen since he started training!

Wanting to make him Sacred Leader!

Qin Xuan could make a ruler of a Holy Land, a Star River Realm Monarch, say such a thing!

This almost meant that Qin Xuan’s future achievements would surely be way stronger than this monarch’s!

“Oh my god! Could Qin Xuan really reach Divine Ability Realm Emperor or even Dharma Idol Realm Venerable someday?”

“That’s too scary! I don’t even dare think about those levels!”

“If our True Martial Sacred Land could really produce a Monarch-Level Expert at Divine Ability Realm, every Holy Land in Youlong Domain would bow to True Martial!”

“Watching the rise of a Divine Ability Realm Emperor or Dharma Idol Realm Venerable would be my life’s biggest honor!”

After the True Martial Saint Lord’s praise of Qin Xuan, the disciples became little fans of Qin Xuan.

Their eyes filled with respect and admiration for the strong when they looked at him.

The Elders and Deacons, hearing this, brightened their eyes as they imagined True Martial Sacred Land ruling Youlong Domain.

Liu Qiyue and Xia Qingcheng breathed huge sighs of relief.

Having trained in the Holy Land since they were young, they didn’t want Qin Xuan and the True Martial Saint Lord to fight to the death.

Now the high praise made the two women thrilled that they hadn’t backed the wrong person.

As for Su Nianshuang and Jiang Fangmu, they both looked at Qin Xuan’s tall figure in worship.

Their husband would be the brightest star wherever he went!

In the sky, Qin Xuan, gripping his sword hilt and getting ready, suddenly saw the True Martial Saint Lord pull back his aura.

Then, he gave Qin Xuan such high praise openly, which shocked Qin Xuan and made him a bit shy!

Plus, a little bit of regret rose in his heart.

He’d nurtured his sword for hundreds of days and finally met a Star River Realm Monarch, but nothing happened.

Seeing Qin Xuan show a hint of regret, the True Martial Saint Lord’s face twitched.

Kid, you really want to hack me?

“Still, even with your great talent, the rules of the Sacred Land must be kept!”

“Killing fellow disciples and Elders is fine only if the punishment master or Elder Gu, who has law rights, does it.”

“But you’re just a Core Disciple. Even if you suffered wrongs, you shouldn’t kill Law Enforcement Squad members. If all copied you, the Sacred Land’s order would fall apart!”

After praising Qin Xuan, the True Martial Saint Lord changed his tone and spoke about protecting the order.

This confused the disciples again: What was their Sacred Lord up to?

“So what?” Qin Xuan said upon hearing this, eyebrows raised as he gripped the Great Que Sword hilt again, eyes eager.

Seeing this, the True Martial Saint Lord held his head and said, “Your temper is giving me a headache!”

Then, he turned back to Qin Xuan with a serious look. “So, I’ll start the Imperial Son Ascension Battle for you!”

“If you can defeat the past three True Martial Saints of True Martial Sacred Land, you can become the True Martial Imperial Son!”

“The True Martial Imperial Son status is above that of Elders, equal to mine!”

“If you’re the True Martial Imperial Son, you’ll be in charge of the Holy Land’s rules!”

“You alone will stand for the whole True Martial Sacred Land!”
