Chapter 884: Are You Sure You’re Qualified Enough?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Duan Ling Tian had long grown accustomed to being the center of attention so he did not really care about it.
However, it was different for Huang Daniu. When had he ever seen such a scene before?
He could not help but instantly furrowed his brows.
It was not until Duan Ling Tian and the others moved to one side because of the sudden arrival of one person that the attention and gaze of the crowd finally s.h.i.+fted away.
"Hu Fei!"
"It's Hu Fei!"
"It's the Peak Master of Fire Peak's direct disciple, Hu Fei!"
…
A young man cloaked in a fiery red robe was making his way here in the air from the distance. He was all alone and was extremely aloof.
Without any fancy movements, his fiery red robe flared open like a wave of burning flames. Within seconds, he had already reached the other side of the sky that was devoid of people.
In the next second, Hu Fei who was hovering in the air began to close his eyes to attain mental composure.
At this moment, it was like he did not notice the gazes that were focused on him. He stayed there all by himself, and he paid no heed to his surroundings.
"So, he's Hu Fei?" Huang Daniu's face darkened instantly. A dangerous gleam could be seen in his eyes as he stared at the red-clad young man in the distance. The Origin Energy in his body started to surge. Without warning, he took a step forward, ready to kick the a.s.s of a certain person.
"Daniu!"
Chen Wei was sharp. He immediately blocked Huang Daniu and warned scrupulously, "I've received news two days ago that Hu Fei has managed to make a breakthrough to the Seventh Level Void Interpretation."
Seventh Level Void Interpretation!
Just four short words and it was enough to change the look on Huang Daniu's face. His legs instantly became like lead, and he could not even move an inch.
Although he had made a breakthrough to the Sixth Level Void Interpretation, he still did not have the confidence to battle it out with a martial artist who was at the Seventh Level Void Interpretation.
Despite the one level difference between the Sixth and the Seventh Level Void Interpretation, the gap in between was as huge as a chasm. This was because there was a great dividing phase that was hard to cross in between.
There was a difference of twenty ancient horned dragon's energy in between the two.
And this was under the circ.u.mstances where the spirit weapon was not taken into consideration yet.
Once both of them unleashed their spirit weapon, the presence of the Seventh Level Void Interpretation would not be just a mere twenty ancient horned dragons stronger than the Sixth Level Void Interpretation. Instead, the power would be at least thirty over ancient horned dragons stronger.
A chilling look swept across Duan Ling Tian's eyes. He had been standing quietly by the side before he proceeded to ask Huang Daniu, "Daniu, you… Do you really want to beat him up?"
"Of course!" Huang Daniu nodded his head without any hesitation. Faced with such an ungrateful b.a.s.t.a.r.d, he really wished he could just go ahead and give him two slaps and teach him how to be a proper man.
"Follow me then." Duan Ling Tian laughed and stepped out in the air. He made his way to Hu Fei who still had his eyes closed to attain mental composure.
"Duan Ling Tian…"
Chen Wei who had just returned to his senses was taken aback when he heard Duan Ling Tian's words, and saw him flying forward while exuding an incredibly strong self-confidence.
Based on what he knew about Duan Ling Tian, he had absolutely no idea where Duan Ling Tian got his confidence from!
Previously, Duan Ling Tian seemed to have nothing to go against the bandit leader who was at the Seventh Level Void Interpretation when he faced him.
At that time, his Variant was obviously useless against a Seventh Level Void Interpretation martial artist.
However, right now, after knowing that Hu Fei was a Seventh Level Void Interpretation martial artist, Duan Ling Tian still charged forward. Apart from that, strong confidence could be seen emanating out of his body.
"Could it be that he has managed to break through?" Chen Wei's eyes narrowed. A startled look appeared on his face.
"Yes!"
After hearing Duan Ling Tian's word, Huang Daniu was initially stunned before he hastily followed suit.
He knew that Duan Ling Tian had taken the Origin Enhancing Fruit previously.
From what he could see, since even he himself had made a breakthrough, Duan Ling Tian must have broken through as well.
"Looks like… we'll have an interesting show today!" When Chen Wei saw Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu making their moves, he smiled and followed them as well.
Yang Ling was his Senior Uncle.
Before this, Hu Fei could be considered as his Senior Brother too.
However, the moment Hu Fei betrayed his Senior Uncle and s.h.i.+fted to become the disciple of Fire Peak's Peak Master, he no longer regarded Hu Fei as his Senior Brother.
Apart from that, there were countless times that he wished he possessed a strength that was much more powerful than Hu Fei.
In that was the case, he would be able to avenge his Senior Uncle and give this half-cooked ungrateful b.a.s.t.a.r.d a good lesson.
Now that somebody could help him realize this wish, he was truly overjoyed from the bottom of his heart.
The three of them glided towards Hu Fei. Within seconds, they stopped not too far away from him, with only 100 meters between them.
There were no doubts that the actions of these three people immediately attracted the attention of the others.
"What're they trying to do?"
"Ten years ago, Hu Fei betrayed Wood Peak and joined Fire Peak… Could it be that Duan Ling Tian and the other two are here to get revenge for Wood Peak?"
"Maybe."
"I-It's just that… Are they really Hu Fei's opponent? As far as I know, Hu Fei has already broken through to the Seventh Level Void Interpretation."
…
Many people started to raise a babble of discussion. Some even spilled out the juicy details that Hu Fei had broken through to the Seventh Level Void Interpretation.
An uproar instantly erupted.
"WHAT?! Hu Fei has broken through to the Seventh Level Void Interpretation?"
"I-Impossible! Another breakthrough so fast?"
"No wonder the Peak Master of Fire Peak was willing to pay a high price to get him over to Fire Peak ten years ago! It turns out that it's because his innate talent's so strong!"
"The Seventh Level Void Interpretation… Then, does it mean that his strength is actually on par with Gold Peak's Nangong Twins? The Nangong Twins are also only at the Seventh Level Void Interpretation."
…
A group of Five Element Sect's disciples was discussing lively. The shock could be seen on their faces.
Hu Fei actually made a breakthrough to the Seventh Level Void Interpretation!
This was a completely shocking news.
After all, in the past, the Gold Peak's Nangong Twins were the only people from the younger generation of the Five Element Sect that made a breakthrough to the Seventh Level Void Interpretation.
However, now, a third person had appeared —
Hu Fei, the direct disciple of the Peak Master of Fire Peak.
Perhaps it was because Hu Fei heard the noise of the discussion in his surroundings had something to do with Wood Peak, his eyes that were originally closed to retain his mental composure, finally opened gradually.
Within seconds, a calm gaze immediately locked on Duan Ling Tian and the other two who were 100 meters away.
After Hu Fei's gaze swept across Duan Ling Tian and Huang Daniu, his gaze finally landed on Chen Wei before he greeted him faintly, "Junior Brother Chen Wei."
"Hurmph!"
However, Chen Wei would not even give Hu Fei a spare glance even when he took the initiative to greet him. He sneered sarcastically, "In my eyes, the Senior Brother Hu Fei from last time is already dead… You're the direct disciple of the Peak Master of Fire Peak. I, Chen Wei, dare not claim ties of kins.h.i.+p with someone that has a high status like you. Therefore, call me directly by my name please!"
It was apparent that Chen Wei's remark was mocking the fact that Hu Fei betrayed Yang Ling and Wood Peak.
Hu Fei's face darkened instantly when he heard the sarcasm. His voice turned cold in an instance, "Chen Wei, I've no idea where you get that courage from, but how dare you talk to me like that!"
"Hehe… As expected of the direct disciple of the Peak Master of Fire Peak! What an exuberant manner!" Chen Wei continued to laugh mockingly.
It was not that Chen Wei had confidence in Duan Ling Tian's ability to deal with Hu Fei. Even if Duan Ling Tian was not Hu Fei's opponent, Chen Wei would still be unable to suppress his censure when faced with Hu Fei.
All of this was because he looked down on Hu Fei this ungrateful b.a.s.t.a.r.d from the bottom of his heart.
When Hu Fei saw how Chen Wei was reaching for a yard after taking an inch, two flashes coldness shot out of Hu Fei's eyes. His voice was deep and cold as he said, "Chen Wei, you don't think that… these two trashes around you can stop me right?"
Trashes?
Huang Daniu's face darkened immediately.
It had never crossed his mind that "trashes" would be the first word used by Hu Fei to describe him and Duan Ling Tian.
After all, he had never had any interactions with Hu Fei prior to this.
Suddenly, Huang Daniu burst out in wrath. His pair of eyes were s.h.i.+ning with a blood-curdling chill.
"Stop you?"
Just as all the gazes from the Five Element Sect disciples landed on Duan Ling Tian and the other two, Duan Ling Tian took a step forward and looked at Hu Fei indifferently.
"Are you sure you're qualified enough?" Duan Ling Tian asked calmly.
Are you sure you're qualified enough?
Although his voice was not loud, it was completely filled with Origin Energy. It pa.s.sed into the ears of everyone in the audience, and it made all of the Five Element Sect's disciples stunned and bewildered.
"Is… I-Is this… D-Duan Ling Tian c-crazy?"
"How dare he provoke Hu Fei? I-Is he trying to look for death?"
"What big b.a.l.l.s this Duan Ling Tian has! How dare he infuriate Hu Fei!?"
"Among all of us younger generations from the Five Element Sect, I'm afraid only the Gold Peak's Nangong Twins are not afraid of Hu Fei right?"
"I have to say though, I kind of admire Duan Ling Tian's courage! Still, he's doomed now!"
"Of course! In the past ten years, anyone who dares to say bad things behind Hu Fei did not have a good ending! Many people have gone missing, and I'm pretty sure they're all killed by him. Apart from that, their bodies must have been destroyed as well!"
…
Every single one of the Five Element Sect's disciples was currently looking at Duan Ling Tian with a hint of pity in their gazes.
Although they knew that Duan Ling Tian's strength was quite powerful, they could vaguely feel that this young man who looked about 25 years old was not a match for Hu Fei after seeing him in the flesh with their own eyes.
After all, Hu Fei had broken through to the Seventh Level Void Interpretation. He was the third man among the younger generation of the Five Element Sect to have reached the Seventh Level Void Interpretation.
In their opinions, Duan Ling Tian would never be Hu Fei's match!
Hu Fei was taken aback upon hearing Duan Ling Tian's remark. He was completely shocked.
When had he ever been provoked like this in the Five Element Sect?
Moreover, it was by a young man who only appeared to be about 25 years old. Based on his words, it was obvious that this young man showed no sign of respect towards him at all.
"Boy, you're looking for death!"
Hu Fei was angry. He was completely furious.
In the next moment, chills flashed across his eyes. He immediately began to make his move. A huge towering flame rose up from his body, and like an enormous flaming beast, he charged out within seconds.
Under all the watchful eyes, the enormous flaming beast charged towards Duan Ling Tian as it opened its mouth wide. It was as if it was about to swallow Duan Ling Tian whole.
Many of the Five Element Sect disciples could not bear the sight and closed their eyes.
In their opinions, Duan Ling Tian would be crippled, if not dead, when faced with a charging Hu Fei who was furious.
At this moment, Hu Fei had completely lost his senses. He had long thrown the Five Element Sect's rule behind his mind. All he could think about was to kill this purple-clad young man standing before him who dared to provoke him.
"Hurmph!"
When Duan Ling Tian saw how Hu Fei who was enveloped in flames and was charging towards him with 180 ancient horned dragons silhouettes above his head, he only snorted as his eyes narrowed.
A dark light flashed across the depth of his eyes.
