Chapter 420: 420
"Come out and fight!" a scream resounded in the entire courtyard, and Xue Wei was awoken from his sleep .
He got up, feeling much more refreshed, and his mind was relaxed . There was no backlash from having removed the seals, and his body was much more comfortable than before .
He was now a one layered Sky Saint, but he was not sure as to how his fighting ability was after advancing .
He left the room and looked at a group of ten people who were standing outside the courtyard . All of them were full of hostility, and their auras were malicious and bloodthirsty .
Compared to the Chi Branch members, these were much less elegant and much more crude .
When Xue Wei came out, he saw that his friends had all gathered outside as well, and he raised an eyebrow . These arrogant and aggressive men were not weak, most of them were at the ninth layer of the Earth Saint rank, but one of them was actually a Sky Saint first layer .
With their strength, they should be able to get an excellent courtyard, so why were they aiming for Xue Wei and his friends' courtyard?
The answer quickly appeared in Xue Wei's mind . He had gotten the courtyard by using his background . Not many would approve of this, and these arrogant soldiers would not accept it .
But to think that they would act this fast, he had not expected it . Still, this was a godsent opportunity to test out his combat ability . There were ten people, and none of them were stronger than him, so he thought that he would be able to fight all ten of them at once .
He was a Sovereign Beast; if he could not defeat ten people, where only one of them was at the same level as himself, then his combat ability would have dropped too drastically .
Xue Wei looked at the people who were there to fight their group of people, and many gathered to see how Xue Wei and his friends planned on dealing with these aggressive soldiers .
"I will take you on," Xue Wei finally said . "If I defeat you all, you cannot fight me again; I don't want you to come back and bother me time and time again just because you are unhappy with us . "
Everyone was in an uproar . Did this young man say that he would fight them alone? One against ten? If he could defeat them, would that not be too overwhelming?
Xue Wei was calm and collected . His friends were all perplexed as to why Xue Wei would say this, but after considering it for some time, they began trusting his judgment . Xue Wei did nothing that he was not, more or less, certain about .
Lan was the only one who had seen through Xue Wei's cultivation base, and a slight smile was on his lips .
He could also sense the Ancestral Worldpower within Xue Wei, and he instantly knew that his noisy uncle had given him a blessing .
Blessings were powerful, but they could not be used very often . It required a lot of energy, even for an Overlord, and not many were willing to give it out .
Lan had planned on giving Xue Wei a blessing at some point, but due to his current strength being too weak when they last met, he had not done so yet .
Now that Xue Wei had reached the threshold of being ready to receive a blessing, Hui Yue had already given him one .
Shrugging his shoulders, Lan did not mind . Having Hui Yue giving a blessing meant that he could save some energy instead .
But the blessing had many benefits that Xue Wei was still unaware of . One of them was that the Ancestral Worldpower had the same benefit as the Lightning Source, it was able to refine one's body and increase the quality of one's spirit body when one transcended the Saint rank, reaching the King rank .
With the Ancestral Worldpower that Xue Wei had in his body, he was going to get a good quality spirit body, but as to how good it would become, it was still hard to say . Not only did it rely on the Ancestral Worldpower, but it also relied on his talent and the lightning tribulation he had to undergo .
While thinking, Lan observed their other companions, and while they were all strong, none of them had Ancestral Worldpower, and he started getting a headache . Knowing Xue Wei, he would definitely try and get a thunder source for each of them, so their spirit bodies would become high tier too, but it was not so easy to get . Was this going to delay their cultivation time?
While Lan was thinking, Xue Wei and the others were moving towards the arena . Everyone was starting to bet, and amongst all the people present, only Xue Wei's friends bet on him winning; all the others bet on his loss .
Although they were not allowed to kill one another on the stage, there were sometimes accidents, and many of these ended with someone being disabled . Many could see that the soldiers were truly angered at Xue Wei, and they began thinking that they would be quite heavy-handed . It was more than likely that Xue Wei would end up getting crippled by them .
But when they saw the carefree and casual expression on Xue Wei's face, all of them were feeling perplexed . Could he not feel the killing intent from the soldiers?
Xue Wei could feel it, but he did not put it in his eyes . Although their killing intent was potent, his own was much darker, and he was able to erupt with a killing intent so dense that it would affect the surrounding air, and even his opponents' movements . His, was not the stage his opponents had reached yet .
