Chapter 83: Challenge the Shaoyang Sword Sect
"This kid is pretty arrogant!"
Jun Moxiao stared at the young man's retreating figure, his eyes narrowing slightly as he let out a disgruntled huff.
Everyone else was lining up, but this young man had decided to throw his weight around. On one hand, he had numbers on his side; on the other, his cultivation base had reached the Molding God Realm Tenth Layer. Among the thousands in the square, his cultivation was at an elite level. After all, there was no one here at the Divine Bridge Realm.
Upon hearing Jun Moxiao's words, Li Shaobai looked forward and let out a wry smile, saying, "This is an unwritten rule on Enlightenment Square. The stronger one is, the better their position for enlightenment... That guy is Lin Ye, a Disciple of Heaven's Pride from the Shaoyang Sword Sect. He's very powerful, and most people wouldn't dare to offend them."
Jun Moxiao furrowed his brows and scoffed, "Aren't there three major sects in the Shenfeng Dynasty? Don't tell me that disciples from those three major sects don't dare to offend them?"
"The three major sects won't come." Li Shaobai shook his head with a smile. "Their own legacies are extremely powerful. They used to come here thousands of years ago, but after the sword marks on the Sword King Stone began to fade, they stopped."
"Why is that? Don't these three major sects have disciples in the Origin Sea Realm and the Shaping God Realm?" Jun Moxiao asked, raising an eyebrow.
Li Shaobai explained with a smile, "Well, the people from the three major sects are mindful of their sect's reputation. They wouldn't send their disciples to compete with those second and third-rate sects and powers for these enlightenment opportunities."
"I see." Jun Moxiao nodded silently.
The three major sects...
He had already crossed blades with a Disciple of Heaven's Pride from the Yu Mo Sect. The opponent was indeed very strong, but not overwhelmingly so.
At least, he and Senior Sister Luo Li could kill him using the Reverse Dragon Technique.
Jun Moxiao glanced at Luo Li.
A hint of wildness flickered in Luo Li's eyes as she said cheerfully, "Junior Brother, shall we charge up too?"
"Alright, Senior Sister. That's precisely what I was thinking." A domineering glint flashed in Jun Moxiao's eyes.
This Senior Sister and Junior Brother duo, from their beginnings in the Ancient Moon Dynasty to their journey in the Shenfeng Dynasty, had always been perfectly in sync. At this moment, too, they understood each other perfectly.
"What are you two trying to do? Are you also planning to rush forward and snatch a spot?" Li Shaobai was dumbfounded.
These two were merely at the Shaping God Realm First Level.
Aren't they seeking death by rushing up there?
Jun Moxiao patted Li Shaobai's shoulder, gave a mysterious smile, and then strode boldly towards the front.
"Make way!"
Jun Moxiao drew the Chaos Element Unlimited Sword from his back and led the charge. If anyone blocked his path, he simply tapped them lightly with the flat of his blade. The people standing further back were all at the Origin Sea Realm. So, a light tap from his sword was more than they could handle, sending them stumbling backward. Jun Moxiao's sword moved like the wind. As he advanced, an unknown number of people were sent flying by his Divine Sword.
Luo Li followed closely, her own sword in hand, vigilantly scanning their surroundings. If anyone dared to attack Jun Moxiao, she would unsheathe her sword without hesitation.
With imposing momentum, the two of them quickly broke through the crowd and advanced rapidly.
Li Shaobai's eyes widened as he watched this scene in shocked disbelief.
Suddenly, an idea struck him. He quickly darted forward, following them before the crowd could close ranks again.
These two young people from out of town were uncommonly strong!
Since he knew them, why not take advantage of this opportunity to slip through to the front in the confusion?
The closer one was to the Sword King Stone, the more astonishing the Sword Intent emanating from the sword marks, and the better the results of comprehension. That was why, in the entire Enlightenment Square, those seated at the very front were typically from the most powerful factions or were the cultivators with the highest cultivation bases.
The entire crowd was in an uproar.
Initially, Jun Moxiao and Luo Li were able to advance quickly. After all, they were at the Shaping God Realm, so cultivators of the Origin Sea Realm dared not provoke them.
But by the time they reached the halfway point, they began to encounter cultivators at the Shaping God Realm. Seeing that the pair's cultivation level wasn't high and that they were unfamiliar faces, these cultivators attacked without reservation.
But why would Luo Li and Jun Moxiao pay any mind to these cultivators at the first, second, or third level of the Shaping God Realm?
SWISH! SWISH!
They unleashed their swordsmanship, and waves of sword light swept towards their opponents, instantly sending them sprawling in disarray.
Seeing this young man and woman bulldozing their way through with such formidable strength, many people, for a moment, dared not provoke them.
After a short while, Jun Moxiao had fought his way to the very front.
The foremost area of Enlightenment Square was divided into several hundred sections, occupied by perhaps over a hundred different powers. Of course, some cultivators came alone; due to their high cultivation levels, others generally dared not provoke them.
Luo Li and Jun Moxiao headed straight for the area occupied by the Shaoyang Sword Sect.
All eyes converged on this spot. They hadn't expected this young man and woman to actually target the Shaoyang Sword Sect.
The others watched from the sidelines with mixed expressions. After all, this pair hadn't encroached on their territory. Moreover, there were only two of them; they didn't need much space.
"Make way! We're taking this spot!" Jun Moxiao squeezed to the front, pointing his sword at the prodigious young disciple of the Shaoyang Sword Sect. His eyebrows were raised, his gaze dominant, and his expression utterly arrogant, as if he were deliberately mirroring the previous behavior of the Shaoyang Sword Sect's prodigious disciple.
Li Shaobai scurried over from behind and stood behind Jun Moxiao, whispering, "Brother, they have superior numbers. Maybe we should let it go and find a weaker group..."
Jun Moxiao shook his head coolly.
He found the Shaoyang Sword Sect's bullying behavior extremely distasteful and decided to use this opportunity to teach them a lesson, while also securing a good spot for himself.
With a WHOOSH, the entire group from the Shaoyang Sword Sect surged forward, surrounding them and pointing their swords at Jun Moxiao.
The young disciple looked at Jun Moxiao and said coldly, "You two look unfamiliar; you must be from outside. Haven't you heard the great name of our Shaoyang Sword Sect?"
"Never heard of it!" Jun Moxiao shook his head indifferently. He pointed his sword at the young man and said disdainfully, "We're taking this spot! If you're not convinced, let's settle it with our skills!"
Lin Ye was both incensed and amused.
He couldn't believe that anyone in the Shenfeng Dynasty would dare to be so rude to their Shaoyang Sword Sect.
Especially two mere Shaping God Realm First Level cultivators.
"Fine, then I'll play with you!" Lin Ye stepped forward slowly, sword in hand, emanating a powerful Super Divine Dragon Breath of the Molding God Realm Tenth Layer.
Seeing that a battle was imminent, everyone around craned their necks to watch.
As the saying goes, even a mighty dragon cannot suppress a local snake. This unfamiliar young man and woman were actually challenging a top Disciple of Heaven's Pride from the Shaoyang Sword Sect, a top-tier sect in the Shenfeng Dynasty.
Truly, they were like newborn calves, unafraid of tigers.
Although the Shaoyang Sword Sect couldn't compare to the three major sects, it was still an exceptionally powerful sect. Lin Ye was ranked among the top twenty on the Shaping God Realm's List of Disciples of Heaven's Pride. Moreover, his cultivation was nine minor realms higher than the young man from out of town. He held every advantage, whether it was favorable timing, geographical advantage, or popular support.
For a moment, the surrounding onlookers burst into discussion, and almost no one favored Jun Moxiao.
