Chapter 914: Upper Dragons (1).
Shi Lang was in the middle of a battle when the Sect Master announced that he would have to fight thousand people at the same time. Anyone who won would be guided by the Holy Elder. The challenge was limited to the outer sect, but even the inner sect was curious to find how Shi Lang would handle it.
They all came over to watch, and the outer sect turned into a battlefield. The dragon list rankers were going to participate, however, they weren't fools to jump in battle head first. They were aware of Shi Lang's battle prowess. The fact that he could take on a Dao King had spread in the sect, because the three disciples of the assault team leaked it.
While Shi Lang was dealing with the eager young blood surging towards him, the Upper Dragons and the Lower Dragons of the outer sect were holding a meeting together.
Someone said, "Senior Brother Chan, what do you think?"
Senior Brother Chan was ranked one in the upper dragon list. He was very strong and could stand shoulder to shoulder with some of the inner court disciples. Unanimously he was nominated to be the commander in this battle. At this moment, people did not care if they could receive guidance from the holy elder, but they cared about defeating Shi Lang.
The Terran had set such a high standard of strength that everyone just wanted to ask if they had been wasting all their time all along. This contest was enough for them to understand the gap between them. The disciples of the Martial Spirit Hall were all treated in a manner where they always accepted the truth regardless how bitter it may be.
Senior Brother Chan took a deep breath and said, "This guy is stronger than all of us. He has been inside the Garden Of Eden. From what we know, he is super skilled in alchemy so he can restore his strength with ease. He can take on all of us in battle with his strength, so the idea to outnumber him will not work. I have an idea, but it can be a bit harmful for his foundation.
What do you concur Junior Sister Bai."
Bai was the girl ranked second in the upper rank dragons, however, her strength was rumored to be higher than that of Chan Yuling. The girl named Bai sat on her chair with half of her face covered behind a veil. She said, "We must not harm his foundation. If he can take on a Dao King to protect himself. What do you think he will do to us?
Do not forget that even if there are rules, he is the jewel of the sect. While I stand against the idea, you go ahead and tell what you have in mind. We are all here and we might be able to tweak with your plan."
Chan Yuling thought for a bit and said, "We can challenge him and then kite him to the Mist garden. There we can use spirit siphoning powder in the mist. If he inhales even a little bit of it, his spiritual energy will gradually vanish. However, if he did not give up, it would harm him a lot."
Disciple Yan from the spear hall was present. He said, "Shi Lang cannot take a step back in the path of challenge. He walks the path of invincibility. He would rather die than back off from a challenge."
Disciple Bai thought for a bit and said, "How about enlisting the help from the array hall? Have the disciples cast spirit restriction formations in the hotspots where we want to fight him. They can cast the reversal array on our robes. This way, we would be able to extract spiritual energy as we fight, and Shi Lang will be restricted.
The kiting method will make sure that he fights us and he will gradually tire up."
They discussed their plans in great length. At this moment, Shi Lang was fighting with at least three dozen disciples with his spear. Suddenly, he sighed and said, "Lightning Domain."
The entire place was covered in lightning and the streaks attacked the disciples who were fighting him. Shi Lang was akin to a general of the demon army. He did not spare anyone and knocked all of them out one by one. His speed was fast and his blows were ruthless.
The disciples who came to spectate the situation from the inner court were stunned. They did not expect Shi Lang to be so dazzling. One of the young man said, "Damn it, if this guy comes inside the inner sect how will we fight against him? He is a monster."
A girl standing beside him patted on his shoulder and said, "You should first focus on the Upper Rank competition before you bother about this legendary monster. He can already handle the lower dragons in the inner sect and even if he does not win then I am sure he can definitely tie with them."
The young man said, "Senior Sister Amy, when did you come over? Can you not pour cold water over my dreams."
Amy smiled and asked, "You dream of getting beaten to pulp? I did not expect you to be a maso, Junior Brother Sammy."
...
Shi Lang used his domain and fought for two days and two nights. He had lost count of the disciples he had defeated, and stood in the square with his spear. The people did not approach him, because they were astounded by his skills. After so many fights, Shi Lang had yet to receive any injury.
He was tired, and his hair were scattered, but he did not have a speck of blood on his person. This was enough to break the spirits of the people. Suddenly, the square bustled with movement.
Forty people appeared, and Shi Lang raised his head to look at him. He took a deep breath as he nodded to the people in acknowledgement. The person in the lead was Chan Yuling. He said, "I apologize to come at such a time, but all is fair when it is a battle of chance."
Shi Lang replied, "I do not mind, but give me two minutes, my hair are in my way."
Chan Yuling and the rest have been watching him for two days, and they were changing their plan on the go. They realized the difference between them and Shi Lang already. They were not the only ones who thought of kiting him. However, Shi Lang managed to break all the strategies that were aimed at him.
They all took out their weapons and surrounded Shi Lang, the Terran was watching them, as he tied his hair in a bun. Then he grabbed his spear in his left hand and grabbed the void with his right. Disciple Yan and Disciple Bing knew about his sword and yelled, "Attack he is summoning his sword."
The disciples did not hesitate, and they attacked, but Raksha had already appeared in his hand. Shi Lang moved quickly and danced around like a phantom. He mumbled, "Lighting Cloud Steps."
His movements became light and even frantic than before. He did not use any technique that he had learned from the Sutra Hall. The clash began and the surrounding disciples could not help but take a step back.
The lower dragons found themselves forced against the corner and only the upper dragons were capable of retaliating against him.
