War God Supreme

Chapter 31

“I’ll handle this matter. Why don’t you go and take a look at the situation below?

“There may be a lot of Geniuses in this dog-eat-dog world but a Genius that hasn’t fully developed is no Powerhouse. Duanmu Qing only has his luck to blame for his own death. For someone with both Ice and Fire Warrior Souls, do you think the Sect Leader would punish him?”

Qin Tian pondered before he spoke and shot a burning gaze at Li Lingtian who was down below. Flaming Sacred Body, Ice Vitality Warrior, Ice and Fire Warrior Souls; it was nothing for Sky Cloud Sect to lose a Star Radiant Body and attain such a brilliant disciple in return.

It was not as though the sect would cripple this Genius of Ice and Fire Warrior Souls, unless the people in the sect had lost their mind.

“Li Lingtian wins.”

With enthusiasm all over his face, Long Tian made the announcement after he had obtained Qin Tian’s approval. Out of the ten-odd tournaments he had hosted, this match was the most captivating because he had witnessed a Warrior disciple’s great ability.

“Senior Brother Li, Senior Brother Li.”

“Senior Brother Li, Senior Brother Li.”

The disciples rejoiced with cheers. Even the sect’s dozen-odd Super-Geniuses had to admit defeat and were itching to try their hand. However, they were also overwhelmed with fear at the thought of Li Lingtian’s Ice Vitality Divine Fist.

“Head to Medicine King Valley and request for a bottle of Sacred Healing Medicine, the Ten Thousand Spirit Pill for Li Lingtian.”

A Tier Nine Warrior Spirit judge beside Qin Tian instructed before handing a Voice Transmitting Charm to another Warrior Spirit disciple. Based on his reputation and position, as well as current circumstances, it was normal to ask for treatment medicine.

“Ten Thousand Spirit Pill? A grade four Ten Thousand Spirit Pill?”

The Elders were taken by surprise. The Ten Thousand Spirit Pill was a grade four pill and a pill like this was considered the best in Sky Cloud Sect.

“Is there anyone else who wishes to challenge someone?”

Long Tian waited until the Elders were done with their deliberation before he asked out loud. The disciples beneath shook their heads violently in refusal.

Who would dare to compete with a superior Powerhouse? There was no one else like Li Lingtian in Sky Cloud Sect.

“I will now proclaim the results,” Long Tian cried out with a smile on his face.

Meanwhile, several Warrior Spirits helped Li Lingtian up to sit on the platform for treatment. They then stabilized his meridians with their Wood-path Warrior Soul.

“First place belongs to Li Lingtian, a Tier Nine peak Warrior disciple.

“Li Lingtian of the Ice and Fire Warrior Souls is the first of his kind in Eastern Spirit Greenland for a hundred centuries. In the thousand-year history of Sky Cloud Sect, he is the first to achieve the Tier Nine peak Warrior state at the age of fifteen.

“All disciples should take Li Lingtian as a model and make Sky Cloud Sect proud.”

Although it was uncommon, Long Tian included an introduction of Li Lingtian and took the opportunity to draw inspiration from him to the disciples below.

“Indeed, Senior Brother Li’s Ice and Fire Warrior Souls are a rare find in Eastern Spirit Greenland for hundreds of centuries now.”

“Senior Brother Li is only fifteen?”

“I have forgotten that he’s only fifteen.”

“You can never be too old or young to have ambition, just look at Senior Brother Li’s achievement at fifteen.”

Countless disciples below were engaged in discussions amongst themselves, and no one could deny Li Lingtian’s ability. With an ability that spoke for itself, no one dared to mess with him.

“Yang Xiaotian, I can recall your encounter with Senior Brother Li in the Life or Death Canyon, hehe.”

Taking a glance at Yang Xiaotian who was next to him, a Tier Three Warrior Spirit mumbled. The incident between Li Lingtian and Yang Xiaotian in the Life or Death Canyon was a known fact.

As someone who had once attempted to kill Li Lingtian, what was in Yang Xiaotian’s mind now that Li Lingtian had proved to be an exceptional force?

“Humph.”

Yang Xiaotian was put through the wringer. Despite his strong build, he was breaking into sweats on the inside.

“Dongfang Qingyu, a Tier Six Warrior Spirit takes second place.”

After a round of discussion, it was concluded that Dongfang Qingyu’s ability could not compare to Duanmu Qing but because Duanmu Qing was wiped out by Li Lingtian, Dongfang Qingyu still retained second place.

“Third place, Lan Yuyan.

“Fourth place, Xiao Tianba.

“Fifth place, Murong Tianjiao.

“Sixth place, Zou Xuefeng.

“…”

Soon, Long Tian redeclared the rankings. The only change in placing was Li Lingtian who gained first place.

“We will now begin to distribute the reward for the disciples who have earned a place in the ranking.”

Prizes were then granted to the ninety-seven disciples from the hundredth place and below. After that, the ten other disciples, who ranked between forth to thirteen were bestowed a mediocre Spiritual Equipment, Spirit Binding Pill, and spiritual stones.

“Third place, Lan Yuyan will receive two bottles of Spirit Binding Pills, an Onyx Tier inferior skill, an ordinary Spirit Equipment, five thousand spiritual stones, and five Spirit Void Pills.

“Second place, Dongfang Qingyu will receive two bottles of Spirit Binding Pills, an Onyx Tier inferior skill, an ordinary Spirit Equipment, ten thousand spiritual stones, and ten Spirit Void Pills.”

The top three only received their rewards after the other disciples had been granted theirs. The prizes for third and second place, compared to the rest, were much more abundant.

Spirit Binding Pills, Onyx Tier skill, ordinary Spiritual Equipment, and Spirit Void Pill were rewards that a regular disciple could only dream about.

“Spirit Void Pill? Isn’t a grade three pill used to advance to Warrior King state?”

“Ten thousand spiritual stones?”

“An ordinary Spiritual Equipment!”

“I wonder how far I could go if I was given a Spiritual Equipment.”

Gasping at the sight of these rewards, the disciples turned green with envy. However, they quickly accepted the fact that only gifted disciples like them were deserving of these prizes.

“First place, Li Lingtian will receive…”

Long Tian raised his voice intentionally for everyone to hear. The disciples were well aware that the prizes between first place and other rankings were poles apart.

Since the rewards for second and third place were already amazing, they wondered how much better the first place would be.

The disciples beneath quietly listened without making a peep, in fear that they might miss the reward announcement.

“First place is rewarded two bottles of Spirit Binding Pills, an Onyx Tier moderate skill, a peerless Spiritual Equipment, two hundred thousand spiritual stones, a bottle of Spirit Void Pills, and the honorary title of an Elder.”

Long Tian beamed as he opened the storage sack of the champion. After taking a look at the rewards inside, his smile turned into envy and jealousy.

These rewards were out of this world. Even as a Tier Nine peak Warrior Spirit, he did not possess such fortune.

“What? An Onyx Tier moderate skill!”

“Peerless Spiritual Equipment?”

“A bottle of Spirit Void Pills?”

“The honorary title of an Elder?”

Awe, anxiety, and shock were written all over the disciples’ faces. Even the judges and Elders themselves were dumbstruck. It was simply unprecedented to award a disciple with such a marvelous prize.

A peerless Spiritual Equipment was almost unattainable, even to Warrior King Powerhouses. However, they were more shocked by the honorary Elder title because this meant that he now dominated over the disciples.

Long Tian had one of the judges pass the prize along to Li Lingtian. By then, Li Lingtian’s wounds had stabilized but it was his internal wounds that came as a shock.

A Wood-path Warrior Soul disciple who stabilized Li Lingtian’s injury was perplexed because Li Lingtian’s internal wounds recovered on its own. Although he was appalled by this phenomenon, he dared not utter a word.

Li Lingtian kept the storage sack and he too was surprised by the prize. These pills and spiritual stones were definitely what he needed, especially the Spiritual Equipment and skill.

“With that, it draws an end to our Grand Tournament. I hope there will be another Li Lingtian five years later.

“The top hundred disciples and top ten disciples in the third stage, please remain here. The other disciples are free to leave. Please do concentrate on your cultivation,” Long Tian loudly announced.

He then walked towards the back of the square with the remaining disciples. The Elders and judges on the platform, as well as a hundred over disciples, cleared the square in a flash.

Li Lingtian followed Qin Tian behind too. While they were on the way, many disciples greeted Li Lingtian while on the way out of their fear for his ability,

As he quietly trailed behind, Li Lingtian tried to wrap his head around the mystery of their post-tournament destination. After all, he still had an injury to attend to.

It was not long before they arrived at a main hall that had many Warrior King Powerhouses and numerous Warrior Spirit disciples waiting in there.

Li Lingtian swept a glance at the people in the hall and was shocked by his discovery. There were twenty-two Warrior King and a black-clothed Elder in the middle whose cultivation level he could not see through.

“Sect Leader.”

Qin Tian and the other judges saluted with respect. They then made way for the other disciples to pay their respects.

With that, even the disciples who had never seen the Elder in black knew that he was the Sect Leader of Sky Cloud Sect, a Warrior Ascendant Powerhouse.

“Sect Leader.”

Overcome with excitement, the disciples saluted the Elder with respect. This person was the most authoritative figure in Sky Cloud Sect — the ruler of a sect.

“There’s no need for formalities.”

Ling Tianfeng cast his eyes over the disciples with a satisfied look but with a frown, he darted a piercing stare at Qin Tian’s group.

“I am to blame, I accept my punishment, Sect Leader.”

Thud.

The four Warrior Kings and judges fell on their knees. They were aware that the Sect Leader had noticed Duanmu Qing’s absence when he scanned the disciples. The Sect Leader was familiar that Duanmu Qing’s ability would surely earn him a spot in the top five, so something must be wrong for his presence to be missing.

“Why aren’t you kneeling?”

Qin Tian yelled at Li Lingtian for failing to kneel. He was the source of this incident, and with that, he should get down on his knees even if it was just going through the motions to seek pardon from the Sect Leader.

“Why should I kneel?” Li Lingtian answered in a neutral voice.

He had nothing to hide. Sure, he killed Duanmu Qing but the blame was not on him since the four Warrior King Elders were also present on the scene. Life and death were decreed by fate in the law of the jungle. He would not give in to kneeling at a time like this.

“You killed Duanmu Qing, aren’t you going to accept the punishment?” Qin Tian shouted with beads of sweat dripping down his neck.

He was a mere insect before the Sect Leader and he could easily lose his life if Sect Leader was provoked.
