Warrior's Promise

“Estate Master, isn’t this a bit improper?”

Looking at Su Mo and the group of disciples from Taishi Family, Grandmaster Huo Yuan spoke lightly to Estate Master Du beside him.

If both parties fought, no matter which side won, there would be trouble.

The higher-ups all knew about Su Mo’s talents and it would be a real pity if he died in the battle.

Taishi Jue was a direct descendant of the Taishi Family and he had a high status in the Taishi Family. If he died, there would be trouble too.

However, Estate Master Du had already agreed to let the disciples settle the matter between themselves. If he intervened later, it would harm his authority.

“It’s alright. Since it is a deep hatred among them that can only be settled by death, they ought to fight it out!”

Estate Master Du shook his head and continued, “No matter who dies, he can only blame himself for being too weak!”

Estate Master Du was nonchalant about the whole matter, since both parties had voluntarily suggested to fight to resolve their conflict. No matter who won, outsiders couldn’t argue about anything.

Even if Taishi Jue died, the blame could not be placed on Su Mo.

However, the unfortunate thing was that Su Mo would have to leave the academy if Taishi Jue died.

Yet, the current circumstances now did not favour Su Mo and it would be hard for him to win against the 8 members of the Taishi Family, even if he was exceptionally talented.

In the battle.

The Stone Sword in Su Mo’s hands brimmed brightly with dazzling rays of light. Sharp Sword Radiance continuously shot upwards and in an instant, the stone sword transformed into a gigantic sword that was 1000 feet tall.

Killing intent in his eyes surged towards the sky as Su Mo glared at his enemies. Although Su Mo had the confidence to win, he would not underestimate his opponents.

Taishi Jue’s face was dark as a sinister glare flashed across his eyes. The golden light shining from the large rapier in his hands was mesmerizing.

“Attack!”

Taishi Jue suddenly ordered amidst the anticipations of everyone.

In an instant, the six people immediately spread in all directions and started the Seven Star Demons Array.

The Seven Star Demons Array was a very strong collaborative attack that lent the strength of seven people to one person, increasing the target’s attack power.

In other words, every pose and every strike had the combined strength of seven people.

Taishi Jue’s cultivation rank was a Rank 5 Martial Honorable and his powers were on par with an average Rank 6 Martial Honorable. With the Seven Star Demons Array, he had the strength of a Rank 7 Martial Honorable.

The help of the array, in addition to having Taishi Lin by his side to help him, the group of them had huge confidence that they could beat Su Mo.

However, dreams were always beautiful, while reality was bitter.

As Taishi and the seven others stood in their respective spots and prepared to use the Seven Star Demons Array. The scene before them changed.

A terrifying devouring power rolled out from Su Mo and instantly covered everyone.

“What?”

“What is going on?”

“Not good!”

Among the seven people, Taishi Jue was still alright while the other 6 people instantly started to panic. They were only Rank 4 Martial Honorables, how could they stand their ground against Su Mo’s devouring power?

The moment the devouring power enveloped them, the six peoples’ bodies jerked and they flew towards Su Mo uncontrollably.

At the same time, Dark Force and Blood Force churned wildly in their bodies before they started to seep out to the external body.

Shoosh!

Right at that moment, Su Mo attacked first. Sword Radiance flashed and massive three-colored Sword Qi rushed out towards the six people like a big crescent moon.

Ah ah ah ah!!!

Painful screams escaped the six people’s mouths as their bodies were instantly sliced apart by the massive Sword Qi. Streaks of blood splashed through the sky like rain.

Silence!

A deadly silence!

Numerous onlookers stared wide-eyed at the scene in disbelief as their hearts started to pump with adrenaline.

They were simply too shocked by what they saw. Four Rank 4 Martial Honorables were killed instantaneously.

Even Estate Master Du and Grandmaster Huo Yuan were taken aback. Their faces whitened with shock and they were momentarily blank. They had not imagined that such a situation would occur.

Taishi Jue and Taishi Lin were both shell-shocked as their eyes flew wide-open in surprise.

Taishi Lin wasn’t too dumbstruck. After all, he knew about Su Mo’s devouring power and Su Mo had used his precise skills to overpower everyone at the Taishi Market.

In fact, Taishi Lin had previously warned the Taishi Family disciples about Su Mo’s strange devouring power via a mental message.

However, he had not imagined that the same thing would happen again.

Taishi Jue’s face turned black as his facial muscles twitched continuously. He naturally felt the devouring power as well.

Although this devouring power had little influence on him, it was life threatening for the other Rank 4 Martial Honorables.

They had disregarded Taishi Jue’s warning previously and now it was too late for regret.

Since the six people were killed instantly, the Seven Star Demons Array could not be performed.

“Taishi Jue, Taishi Lin, we can fight among ourselves now!” Su Mo stared at the two and yelled. Killing the 6 other people was very easy for him.

He naturally didn’t know what array Taishi Jue was trying to use with the 6 people, but regardless of how strong or weak the array was, it wouldn’t be good news for him.

“Damn it!” Taishi Jue raged. The calm exterior he displayed was instantly wiped away.

“The two of us together will definitely not lose to him!” Taishi Lin softly assured Taishi Jue.

Taishi Jue nodded his head slightly. That’s right, even if they couldn’t use the Seven Star Demons Array, he and Taishi Lin together may not lose to Su Mo.

With that, the two did not waste any more words among themselves, and prepared to attack.

Woosh woosh woosh!!!

In a second, Taishi Lin attacked first. With a mental thought, 300 Natal Spiritual Swords instantly shot out.

This time, the 300 Natal Spiritual Swords did not transform into the Eight Trigrams Infinite Sword Array. Instead, they arranged themselves to form a large Spiritual Sword.

The gathering of the swords caused waves of Sword Forces to sweep through the firmament. The large Spiritual Sword tore through the sky and sped towards Su Mo at an unimagineable speed.

At the same time, Taishi Jue also attacked. The golden rapier in his hands raised up and it mirrored a steel hammer that struck down on Su Mo.

In an instant, a large shadow of a rapier looked like a heavenly sword that pierced through the world. Reaching from the stars to the sky, it was a kilometer wide and it directly aimed at Su Mo’s head.

The large rapier shadow was terrifying and energy forces shook the skies as vast shockwaves rushed out with the powers to crush mountains.

Momentarily, the empty space a kilometer away crumbled apart.

Taishi Jue’s attack was slightly stronger than Taishi Lin’s attack.

Of course, the two’s attacks were different from each other.

Taishi Jue’s combination sword attack had a dazzling radiance and it struck mainly with sharp energy.

On the other hand, Taishi Jue’s attack was on the wild side. It had turbulent forces and horrifying strength.

The two attacks unleashed were the ultimate attacks of their users and they intended to kill Su Mo instantly with these attacks.

Boom boom boom!!

Explosions sounded unstoppably as the powerful attacks instantly resulted in fierce winds that blew the nine heavens.

Su Mo seemed to be a like an overturned canoe in the vast ocean in the face of the two attacks.

However, Su Mo’s expression did not change but remained calm and cold.
