Heavenly Tyrant Martial Soul

Ling Xiao had been wary of someone using a dirty trick.

These narrow-minded people would do anything to justify their superiority.

So, as the pebble approached him, he suddenly punched out.

He used Meteorite Fist’s seventh style——Flying Star Fall Rain!

The pebble flew back the direction it had flown over from.

“Ah——!”

A horrible scream resounded, but Ling Xiao had no time to see the culprit. Now, he was close to the fruit, so he decided to pick it first.

However, because he had hit the flying pebble with such force, he lacked the power to breach that little distance.

At this critical moment, Ling Xiao refused to give up. With his remaining true qi, he punched towards the ground.

Meteorite Fist’s eighth style——Heavenly Fire Raid!

The might of this punch was very fierce. The opposing force from this attack produced enough thrust to let his foot reach that fruit.

Regardless of whether it were with a hand or a foot, picking the fruit was enough to win.

He kicked the fruit off the tree, catching it in his hand as he fell towards the ground.

Once he was about to directly collide with the ground at a high speed, he forcibly flipped himself roughly one meter from the ground and stably landed.

Return Qi Formula took effect in time and saved himself from making a fool out of himself by providing the energy to control his landing. Moreover, his actions couldn’t be called embarrassing.

“Who said that he would run around the tree while barking?”

Ling Xiao sneered and asked, heftingthe fruit in his hand.

Those who had been clamoring just a moment ago suddenly became mute. All of them lowered their heads and refused to utter a word.

Ling Xiao already knew that these fellows were cowards. He disdained to continue discussing with them but only beckoned towards that doctor before walking towards the courtyard.

As he saw it, this matter was over.

In any case, he also couldn’t be the opponent of so many people. Leaving after slapping their faces was truly exciting!

But beyond his expectations, after he took two steps, someone howled again.

“Smelly brat, stop for me! After hitting other people, you want to run away?”

Ling Xiao looked back to discover that Ling Fei had shouted at him.

Ling Fei’s complexion was ghastly pale, and his eyes burned with flames of fury. He resembled a combative rooster.

However, the strong momentum brought by his Rank Three Martial Vein strength brought great pressure to the people around him.

“Hitting other people? When did I hit other people?”

Ling Xiao asked in confusion.

Although Ling Fei’s strength was greater than his, the other party was pushing him too hard. Ling Xiao was not that afraid of him.

“Still acting dumb!”

Ling Fei coldly snorted, “Didn’t you break his forehead? His blood is flowing like this, but you are still not admitting it?”

Hearing his words, a few among the onlookers wore embarrassed expressions, but most were as shameless as Ling Fei.

“Yes, an outsider actually dared to hit one of our Ling Clan’s clan disciples. He truly has eaten a bear’s heart and a leopard’s gallbladder!”

“Senior apprentice brother Ling Fei, teach him a lesson!”

“Beat this little beggar! Why should he be able to practice martial arts with us, the Ling Clan’s disciples?”

“Yes, he lacks the qualifications!”

This was public sentiment rousing others to action!

Ling Xiao had long known that these clan disciples looked down upon the external disciples, but he had never thought that these people would be so shameless.

He was so angry that he smiled. “Just a moment ago when I was picking that fruit, someone plotted and threw a pebble at me, so I simply hit it back. If he was injured, it only serves him right!”

People live for face, and trees live for bark.

Even before he had awakened his Landscape Martial Soul, he had feared none. Now that he had awakened his Landscape Martial Soul, why would he still fear these people?

Not to mention that the other side was clearly intentionally picking a fight with him. Moreover, even if he had acquiesced and acted fearfully, he still wouldn’t avoid getting beaten up.

Rather than sacrificing his dignity, it was better to simply stake it all!

“Good kid! You actually dared to talk back. Say, Senior apprentice brother Ling, what’s to be done?”

Among the onlookers, except for a few who were truly embarrassed and quietly retreated to one side, the others surrounded Ling Xiao.

Clearly, because of their lost face, they wanted to gang up on Ling Xiao!

……

“Senior apprentice sister is back!”

It was unknown who had shouted this, but those people who had originally prepared to gang up on Ling Xiao suddenly turned in the same direction.

It was a white-robed girl!

Like an ice fairy that had descended from the celestial realm, she had bright eyes, and her skin was smooth and soft. Although she was just walking, she enchanted and captivated everyone.

“How can there be such a perfect woman in this world? She must truly be a goddess created by heaven and earth.”

A youth nearly fell to his knees as he finished speaking. Ling Xiao had already disappeared from his mind. At this moment, he was entirely occupied by this white-robed woman.

“Ling Yixue, age: 16, a rank three female disciple of Elite Hall. According to the rumors, her cultivation has already reached Peak Rank Three Martial Vein. She’s only a thin line away from Rank Four Martial Vein!”

Ling Xiao also examined Ling Yixue. After all, this woman was perfect in his eyes too.

Merely, his expression was much better than that of other people.

He admired Ling Yixue not only because of her very good looks, but also her strength!

Like him, Ling Yixue was an outer disciple who had entered the Ling Clan via the external exams, but their situations were substantially different.

In one year, this girl had reached Peak Rank Three Martial Vein and defeated the disciples of the Elite Hall over and over, successfully rising to the third rank in the Elite Hall.

All her resources had been obtained through her own efforts, unlike the tenth-ranked Ling Feng who had relied on his background.

Perhaps, only “genius” described these kinds of people.

In the past, Ling Xiao’s goal had been Ling Yixue.

Because he had believed that his own aptitude was absolutely not inferior to hers.

Actually, the facts also proved this point. If not for his cultivating a fragmented merit law, his progress might have actually been even faster; he would not have performed any worse than she had.

Merely, it was a blessing in disguise. After suffering many things, he had obtained the Landscape Martial Soul. This was a kind of good fortune.

In the past, he truly hadn’t dared to look at Ling Yixue due to his sense of inferiority. When they had first entered the Ling Clan, both had been very optimistic, but now, their situations were like winter and summer.

However, he didn’t particularly care about it today.

Ling Yixue was a true genius, but he would soon catch up.

When Ling Yixue approached, the clan disciples stepped forward to greet her with Ling Fei leading them. They were very enthusiastic.

Looking at this scene, Ling Xiao understood even more that only the strong were respected in this world.

If he were strong enough, Ling Fei absolutely wouldn’t dare to look for trouble with him. Instead the haughty disciple would have respected him.

At that time, no one would dare call him a little beggar. At most, they would whisper a few things behind his back, nothing more.

From the midst of the crowd, he admired Ling Yixue’s beauty.

With the activation of his Landscape Martial Soul, he analyzed and saw through her circumstances.

“Sure enough! Her true qi has already begun to transform; a part of her true qi has already condensed into gang qi. When all of her true qi has qualitatively evolved, she will breakthrough to the gang qi stage, stepping into the Rank Four Martial Vein realm.”

Ling Xiao felt the pressure.

Nevertheless, with pressure came the motivation to work harder.

“Just now, I saw you all surrounding him. Why is that?”

What surprised Ling Xiao was that Ling Yixue actually remembered him.
