Chapter 1464 - 588: The Grace of Not Killing
Chapter 1464: Chapter 588: The Grace of Not Killing
A Ninth Tier master of the current age being publicly challenged by a young warrior at Sixth Tier Peak.
Intolerable!
With a twitch of his thick eyebrows, the Wood Spirit Palace Master was filled with killing intent, ready to accept the challenge.
He had to accept the challenge.
But before he could speak, Tianyang Star Lord suddenly interjected, "King of Territory, Palace Master Chi, since when has the position of Grand Marshal of the Galaxy Battlefield become something for you to gamble with privately?"
Tianyang Star Lord was wise and experienced.
Originally, he had great confidence in the strength of Muling Palace Master Chi Lei, who was at Ninth Tier.
Xu Jin had a remarkable record, having killed many Eighth Tier warriors and even those in the Late Period of the Eighth Tier, his real combat power almost reaching Eighth Tier Peak, but compared to Ninth Tier, there was surely still a big gap.
Otherwise, Dachen wouldn’t be in its current state, this was their earlier judgment.
But at this moment, seeing Xu Jin publicly challenge the Wood Spirit Palace Master for the position of Grand Marshal, Tianyang Star Lord felt something was wrong and hurriedly spoke to stop it.
It’s not that he thought Xu Jin’s combat power could surpass the Ninth Tier Wood Spirit Palace Master.
After all, Xu Jin’s Sixth Tier Ninth Layer Peak cultivation level was there, and no matter how strong, there was a limit.
But the problem was Xu Jin’s confident demeanor in issuing the public challenge, which made him worry that Xu Jin and Cheng Yuxiao had prepared some unconventional means for the Wood Spirit Palace Master.
Especially those explosive kinds.
The loss for the Wood Spirit Palace Master would be minor, but losing the position of Grand Marshal of the Galaxy Battlefield would affect him.
Though Tianyang Star Lord intervened, Xu Jin didn’t show any fear but spread his hands, sat down with a smile, "Palace Master Chi, it looks like our battle is unnecessary.
Tianyang Star Lord and the others think your strength is inferior to mine, and they dare not let you fight me.
Their judgment, with discerning eyes, must be correct.
If you’re not even daring to compete with me, let alone deciding life and death.
Why don’t you just admit it?"
This made the Wood Spirit Palace Master Chi Lei suddenly bristle.
In literature, there is no first, in martial arts, no second.
Even Tianyang Star Lord, Cangming Star Lord, and Doom-suppressing Star Lord wouldn’t claim to be stronger than other Ninth Tier warriors, at least not openly.
Even when facing Tianyang Star Lord, he wouldn’t admit inferiority before the duel.
If he admitted today,
he would acknowledge this humiliation.
His reputation would be in ruins.
His personal disgrace was minor; losing face for the Wood Spirit Palace was the real issue.
In the next moment, the Wood Spirit Palace Master Chi Lei abruptly rose, staring at Xu Jin, "King of Territory, when it’s time to fight, what’s with all the nonsense.
Just decide the location!"
He had no choice but to accept the challenge.
If he didn’t, he would really become like Mr. Xiong.
While accepting the challenge, Chi Lei glared at Tianyang Star Lord with some dissatisfaction, too meddlesome.
Tianyang Star Lord inwardly smiled wryly, but for his own interests, he had no choice but to open his mouth to remedy the situation, "King of Territory, you misunderstood. Everyone present recognizes Palace Master Chi’s strength.
I just want to set some rules for your match."
The Wood Spirit Palace Master glanced at Tianyang Star Lord, and Xu Jin also looked over, "What kind of rules, please explain, Star Lord."
"Simple, not to limit you two, since with your levels, too many restrictions would hinder your performance. Just one rule: no one-time explosive techniques.
And with the war looming, it would be best to stop before it gets too serious," Tianyang Star Lord said.
Upon hearing this, Xu Jin understood.
After all that was said, Tianyang Star Lord was afraid he’d use explosive techniques.
Because theoretically, the Wood Spirit Palace Master wouldn’t need them.
But Xu Jin, with his Sixth Tier Ninth Layer Peak cultivation, having killed Eighth Tier Late Period warriors, was now challenging a Ninth Tier expert, clearly having prepared such means.
In essence, it was to limit Xu Jin.
Afraid the Wood Spirit Palace Master would be pitted.
"I have no problem naturally," the Wood Spirit Palace Master agreed in one breath.
"I have no problem either," Xu Jin naturally agreed.
He had many explosive means, but as for one-time ones, he currently had none.
"Then you decide the location." The Wood Spirit Palace Master Chi Lei said.
The reason he mentioned the location is because both of them were projected into the Galaxy Commander Mansion’s Secret Realm through the Star-picking Order and not present in person.
To engage in the duel, they needed to decide on a location to quickly arrive in person.
"Alright, how about the loser becomes Vice Marshal?" Xu Jin chuckled.
"Loser takes the Vice Marshal position!"
"Is the loser willing to accept orders?"
"Loser willingly accepts orders!"
"Good!"
As Xu Jin and Wood Spirit Palace Master Chi Lei exchanged laughs and swore on it, Xu Jin then asked, "Palace Master Chi, do you think we should secretly decide a location and battle above the celestial skies, or invite everyone to watch?"
Wood Spirit Palace Master Chi Lei thought for a moment, then looked at Xu Jin’s youthful face, ultimately deciding not to underestimate the young.
Xu Jin dared to challenge him, a Ninth Tier, while still at Sixth Tier Ninth Layer.
What about the future?
In seven or eight years, the world might belong to the young King of Territory, Xu Jin.
It’s wise to leave some leeway in life.
Leave a good impression on King of Territory Xu Jin.
It’s for the good of the Wood Spirit Palace too.
"King of Territory, to keep the battle swift, let’s agree on a place privately and report the results to everyone here afterward." The Wood Spirit Palace Master finished speaking and directly transmitted a message to Xu Jin.
"I am at Guard City Eight."
"I am at Guard City Thirteen. Why don’t we meet two thousand miles east of Horse Head Peak at Guard City Ten," Xu Jin quickly determined a location.
Their transmission was swift, and almost the moment it ended, their figures vanished from the meeting hall of the Galaxy Commander Mansion’s Secret Realm.
The Star Lords and Commanders present were all dumbfounded.
They weren’t even allowed to watch the duel.
But they reacted quickly.
This was likely Dachen wanting to avoid making things too awkward with the Wood Spirit Palace.
