NOVEL NEXT Chapter 809: Don't Take It Too Seriously
"Tang Rao, do you dare? If you do, let's each send someone and have a friendly duel." Shi Pang said to Tang Rao with a faint smile on his face.
This smile was rather smug, as if saying, Tang Rao, come on, let me show you the strength of our Dark Moon Association.
"You fatso, are you sure you want to spar?" Tang Rao grinned as he looked at Shi Pang.
"Of course, since we'll be battling at the sect exchange conference anyway, why not warm up now?" Shi Pang replied.
Tang Rao shrugged: "Alright, since you're insisting, I have to agree. If I send Xiao Yun, you definitely won't agree. How about this, I'll send the youngest among us to step up, except for Xiao Yun."
"Oh, oh, Tang Rao, you're something."
"Xiao Cha, play with them a bit, but remember not to take it too seriously," Tang Rao said to Cha Xiangzi.
Yes, aside from Xiao Yun, Cha Xiangzi was the youngest among them, only twenty-two years old. A twenty-two year old at the second level of the Immortal Monarch, his aptitude was explosive, enough to scare a large crowd.
Of course, mentioning Xiao Yun would be even more astounding—fourteen years old at the second level of the Immortal Monarch, just ask: who else?
"Yes, Sect Master." Cha Xiangzi stepped forward and nodded slightly.
He appeared graceful and elegant, exuding confidence despite his young looks.
"This is Cha Xiangzi, twenty-two years old this year." Tang Rao briefly introduced.
Shi Pang nodded and smiled: "Alright, I won't take advantage of you. Coincidentally, I also have a young one, also twenty-two. Dali, come out and have a go."
As soon as Shi Pang finished speaking, a sturdy man emerged from the crowd, at least two meters tall, holding a thick Wolf Fang Club.
If not for the clothes, he'd truly be mistaken for a wild man.
"This is Niu Dali, don't be fooled by his size, he's really only twenty-two. If you don't believe it, we can test his age," Shi Pang said.
"No need, no need." Tang Rao waved his hand, it's okay, even if Niu Dali is two hundred twenty years old, his strength is right there, clear as day.
Just a third level at Luo Xian Realm, while our Xiao Cha is at the second level of the Immortal Monarch, right?
Seeing them fight, Tang Rao couldn't bear to watch, it's just bullying.
"Sect Master, this guy's limbs are thin, if I don't control my strength, I might completely break him with a swing," Niu Dali said to Shi Pang.
"Just be careful, don't use too much force. I already said it's just a spar, stop at an appropriate point, got it?" Shi Pang pompously instructed Niu Dali.
"Okay then!" Niu Dali nodded.
The people around Tang Rao almost burst out laughing, isn't Shi Pang being too funny?
Getting a third level at Luo Xian Realm to go easy on a second level Immortal Monarch, you're really something.
"Are you ready? Let's start." Cha Xiangzi spread out his hands and said, he really had no interest in wasting time with a third level at Luo Xian Realm.
"Kid, don't push yourself too hard later, if it's too much just give up." Niu Dali reminded Cha Xiangzi.
"Can I make a move now?" Cha Xiangzi asked.
"Sure…"
"Bang!" Just as Niu Dali finished speaking, Cha Xiangzi casually waved his right hand, and the Immortal Power burst forth, sending Niu Dali flying.
However, he wasn't hurt, instead he was pressed against the wall by Cha Xiangzi's power from a distance.
"So, are you giving up?" Cha Xiangzi asked.
Niu Dali was frustrated, struggling with all his might, but to no avail, he couldn't break free.
"I give up, I give up." Niu Dali had to concede, what else could he do? Keep being pressed against the wall and humiliated?
Upon hearing Niu Dali's concession, Cha Xiangzi released him, and Niu Dali fell awkwardly from the wall.
By this time, everyone from the Dark Moon Association, including Shi Pang, had their eyes wide open.
What in the world just happened?
Niu Dali was a third level at Luo Xian Realm, a twenty-two-year-old third level at Luo Xian Realm, yet he was utterly defeated.
The key is that the opponent is also twenty-two years old, and able to utterly defeat Niu Dali, at least three small realms higher. A twenty-two-year-old sixth level at Luo Xian Realm. It's simply unbelievable that Tang Rao could find such a genius.
It's well known, Kao Shan Sect is at the bottom in the Land of Immortals, only notorious, with no talented people willing to join.
Who knows where Tang Rao managed to coax such a talent from.
"Want to spar again?" Tang Rao asked Shi Pang with a smile.
Shi Pang was unwilling, Tang Rao with his grinning face felt like an embodiment of mockery.
This guy must be feeling pretty proud and smug inside right now.
"Let's have another round, earlier was under thirty, this time, let's go with the under-forty group. Elder Koji, have a spar with them." Shi Pang called out.
Elder Koji, honestly, if Tang Rao wasn't so composed, he would have burst out laughing.
On Blue Star, there's a short-legged dog called Koji, they're silly and adorably dumb...
"Understood, Sect Master, I'm coming." A person from the Dark Moon Association stepped out.
He seemed a bit older, probably due to not paying attention to maintenance or something, even having wrinkles.
"This is Elder Koji, thirty-nine years old this year, definitely not overage." Shi Pang grinned as he spoke.
The sect exchange has three age group exchanges, one for under thirty, one for under forty, and one for over forty. In terms of significance, the under thirty group holds the highest value, as geniuses are crucial for any sect.
This age group is just right to test the strength of each sect's younger generation.
The stronger the young generation, the greater the potential.
"Alright…" Tang Rao hesitated, under forty in their group, only he and Dong fanglu qualified. Dong fanglu's skills aren't great, and with Elder Koji at the eighth level of Luo Xian, sending Dong fanglu up would mean defeat.
Still, Tang Rao could send others, under forty doesn't specify it has to be over thirty either.
You could be twenty and join the under-forty group exchange, that's fine too.
But Tang Rao thought it would be inappropriate to win that way, it would embarrass Shi Pang too much.
"How about I go up then." Tang Rao stepped forward, "I'm about thirty-five or thirty-six, anyway, still under forty, right?"
Shi Pang was momentarily stunned.
"Tang Rao, you must be kidding, you were at Earth Immortal Realm three months ago, weren't you? Don't tell me you've magically soared to Luo Xian Realm in just three months, that's impossible. Elder Koji is at the eighth level of Luo Xian; he could squash you with one finger. If you don't have this level of cultivator at hand, just concede, we're on the same side, no need to worry about face." Shi Pang said, genuinely concerned for Tang Rao.
