Chapter 201: We're Useless!
Feeling extremely frustrated, Lin Dao picked himself up from the ground and bowed to Su Zhan, saying, "My skills aren't up to par."Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
With that, he left with a dejected expression.
His entire being was in a daze. The injuries within his body were secondary.
This time, being defeated by Su Zhan's single sword strike, he felt like a crack had formed in his unwavering Dao heart.
Effort?
Compared to freaks like Su Zhan, even if I were to put in more effort, what good would it do? Sighing softly, Lin Dao felt his internal injuries worsen by another degree.
Seeing Lin Dao concede and leave, Su Zhan shifted his gaze to the Saint King disciples who had previously been eager to challenge him.
"Now that Lin Dao has admitted defeat, who's next?"
Hearing Su Zhan's words, all six of the Saint King disciples shuddered with a spine-chilling sensation.
Cold sweat poured from their foreheads as they waved their hands, refusing one after another.
"No, no, no, let's give this opportunity to Senior Chen Luo!"
"No, it's better if you go first, Senior Liu Canglang!"
"Oh, Wu Heng, you can have this chance!"
All six Saint King disciples tried to decline, and none dared to be the first.
Seeing this, Su Zhan was puzzled, "Earlier, weren't you all competing to fight me? Why are you so reluctant now? Since that's the case, I'll choose then!"
After a moment of thought, Su Zhan looked at Chen Luo, the tallest among them, "Chen Luo, you possess the Extreme Flame Divine Body with strong offensive capabilities. Come, let's have a battle!"
"No, no, no!"
Chen Luo's body trembled, and he hastily said, "My Extreme Flame Divine Body, it, it actually leans more towards cultivation, healthy living, you know, wellness? When I fight, I'm basically useless! Junior Brother Su, please choose someone else!"
The Extreme Flame Divine Body is actually for cultivating wellness?
Su Zhan was momentarily stunned, then turned his gaze to Liu Canglang beside Chen Luo, "Liu Canglang, your body refining techniques are quite formidable. How about you then?"
"I, I, I"
Liu Canglang was drenched in sweat, struggling to speak, "To be honest, I practice body refinement to help my master chop wood! I'm really skilled at chopping wood, but when it comes to fighting, I'm just not good at it. Junior Brother Su, you should find someone else!"
Body refinement for chopping wood?
The masters of the six genius disciples all felt their dignity was lost and that they had become a laughingstock. They left in a fit of anger, not even taking their beloved disciples with them.
The six Saint King disciples exchanged looks with each other, then followed after their masters, clearly with no choice.
"I recommended you as a Holy Son, and yet you're so cowardly!" As Chen Luo stepped up, his master berated him.
"I apologize, Master. It's not that I'm cowardly; it's just that Su Zhan is too abnormal!" Chen Luo chuckled wryly, "Master, can't you see? With a single sword strike of his, he could cleave me in two!"
"Humph! That's no excuse for being timid before fighting even starts!" lthough the master inwardly agreed with Chen Luo, his face remained stern, "Go back and face the wall for ten years, dedicate yourself to cultivation for ten years. You're not allowed to leave the Holy Land during that time!"
"Yes, Master!" Chen Luo hurriedly complied.
At this moment, Holy Master Mo Wentian stood up from his seat, his gaze landing on Su Zhan. He spoke, "Today, in the battle for the position of the Holy Son, Su Zhan defeated Lin Dao with a single sword strike, and no one challenged him. In that case, I announce that the third Holy Son of our Heavenly Profound Holy Land is none other than Su Zhan!
"The ceremony for the Holy Son will be held on the Holy Peak in ten days!"
Hearing this, the core disciples who were still stunned by the intimidation of Su Zhan's single sword strike finally snapped back to reality, and they all exclaimed in awe.
"One sword, defeating Lin Dao with just one sword. Junior Brother Su, no, Senior Brother Su is so strong!"
"What's even more terrifying is that Senior Brother Su is only at the fourth transformation of the Fish-Dragon realm. Once he enters the Saint realm, how powerful will he become?!"
"Even our first and second Holy Sons, though they've long entered the Saint realm, still pale in comparison to Senior Brother Su!"
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would never believe there could be such a genius as Senior Brother Su!"
"This can't even be called genius anymore! Genius isn't this abnormal!!!"
"Senior Brother Su, I wonder, does Senior Brother Su have a partner? If not"
"Nie Qianqian, how shameless can you be! You're over a hundred years old! Are you really going after younger guys?"
"You shut up! We cultivators age similar to regular people. A hundred years for us is roughly like twenty for mortals. I'm still young!"
Sounds of admiration, adoration, and even infatuation resounded.
All the core disciples, each one admired and revered by the outside world as geniuses, at this moment, focused their fiery gazes on Su Zhan!
Ye Kuang's expression was trance-like as he sat down on the ground, feeling somewhat despondent.
He hadn't expected that even Lin Dao would be defeated by Su Zhan's single sword strike! He had foolishly thought of using Lin Dao to kill Su Zhan and seek revenge for himself how ridiculous!
Recalling Su Zhan's terrifying sword strike, Ye Kuang wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, feeling a bit of fear in retrospect. Fortunately, he had restrained himself before the assessment and didn't really make a move against Su Zhan.
Otherwise, he might have already lost his life now
