Chapter 1021 - The Brutal Lu Xuan
Chapter 1021: The Brutal Lu Xuan
If Lu Xuan’s reputation had originally been limited to a small area, then it could be said that Lu Xuan’s name was now well-known in the entire Heaven realm.
The Heavenly Court’s Talent Evaluation Ceremony was a super grand ceremony that was held only once every two hundred years. Therefore, countless pairs of eyes in the Heaven realm were watching this battle through all sorts of means.
The more people watched, the more attention they attracted. Everyone knew that those who could make it into the top one hundred, or even the top one thousand, were the future pillars of the Heaven Realm.
There would even be many Golden Immortals among them, and there might even be an Immortal Emperor.
Given the difficulty of immortal Emperor cultivation, it was already very good to have an immortal Emperor emerge in one session of the Talent Evaluation Ceremony. In fact, no one had become an immortal Emperor in several previous sessions of the ceremony.
Even the champion of the Talent Evaluation ceremony had little chance of becoming an immortal Emperor.
However, it was different this time. Everyone could clearly see that the quality of the ceremony this time was much better than before. It was equivalent to gathering the top geniuses from ten sessions of theTalent Evaluation Ceremony all in one session.
In the past, there would usually be a few gold immortals among the top, but this time, there were actually more than sixty gold immortals competing.
The quality of the gold immortals was also extremely high, which was rarely seen in the past.
Under such circumstances, those who could make it into the top one thousand were basically treated the same as those who made it into the top one hundred in the past, and those who made it into the top one hundred were even treated the same as those who made it into the top ten.
As for those who could make it into the top fifty, in the hearts of the people of the Heaven realm, they were about the same power as the top five or even the top three in the past.
The people of the Heaven realm were very clear about the top fifty. Many of them had grown up with a very impressive halo since they were young, and they were all very famous in their respective provinces.
Lu Xuan was the only one who had appeared out of nowhere. Even the young geniuses from the Xuan Province did not know where he came from or which side he was from.
Under such circumstances, more and more people paid attention to Lu Xuan. Lu Xuan’s fame was also rising at an astonishing speed.
The battle between Lu Xuan and Zi Mingyue became a battle that many people were talking about. Many people even felt that there was something between the two of them when they saw the pictures taken then.
Most people guessed that Lu Xuan was not as strong as he was at the beginning. Apparently, he had realized that all the peerless geniuses who could cultivate to the gold immortal realm were extraordinary and not easy to deal with.
But soon, they were all proven wrong.
Not long after defeating Zi Mingyue and obtaining victory, Lu Xuan began his next round of battle.
Lu Xuan’s opponents turned out to be the few half-step gold immortals who made it into the top 50 this time.
To be able to make it this far just by relying on luck, this person’s luck was simply heaven-defying.
Even Lu Xuan could not help but complain. To be able to make it this far by relying on the cultivation foundation of a half-step gold immortal, could he be the illegitimate son of the goddess of fate?
It should be known that even Zi Mingyue, who could have made it into the top 20, was defeated by Lu Xuan in the top 100 to 50 due to bad luck.
This made everyone sigh with emotion. Sometimes, luck was very, very important.
When this half-step golden immortal saw that his opponent was Lu Xuan, a helpless expression appeared on his face. He was one of the favorites to win the championship recently.
After all, Lu Xuan was one of the real powerhouses who could defeat other peerless geniuses. Naturally, he had a higher chance of winning in everyone’s heart.
If it were anyone else, he might still have the courage to take the risk. However, when it came to Lu Xuan, there was nothing he could do.
“I admit defeat!”
This half-step Gold Immortal said in a very straightforward manner. He knew very well that he was already extremely lucky. In previous years, he might have had a chance to make it into the top ten. However, in this year’s Talent Evaluation Ceremony, which was a gathering of evildoers and freaks, he felt that he could even open a bottle of thousand-year-old wine to celebrate the fact that he had made it into the top hundred.
The audience who wanted to see Lu Xuan fight were all dumbfounded. Although they knew that a half-step golden immortal indeed could not defeat a golden immortal, they did not expect him not to even put in any effort and just admit defeat like this.
This made many people very disappointed.
“No wonder you can’t cultivate to the gold immortal realm. You deserve it!”
Many people were very disappointed. They could not see the depth of Lu Xuan through this half-step gold immortal. It was useless.
Naturally, the half-step Gold Immortal also felt the contempt of the crowd, but he did not take it to heart at all. He had seen Lu Xuan’s battle footage. It was brutal.
Apart from Zi Mingyue, who could escape unscathed from his hands, only those who had admitted defeat at the beginning could escape unscathed.
As for the others, they were all extremely miserable. Those who were beaten until half of their bodies were paralyzed could be considered lucky. There were also those who were killed on the spot.
He had gone through great difficulty to reach this point. He was already the pride of his family. If he were to be killed by Lu Xuan with a single slap, he would have wasted it all.
He would never do something like taking the chestnuts out of someone else’s fire.
It was even more because someone had found him in the dark and wanted to persuade him to fight Lu Xuan with all his might. He wanted to help them find out Lu Xuan’s strength, and for that, he was willing to pay a lot of money. Just hearing the name of those good things made him very tempted.
However, in the end, he still refused because he thought about it. The things were good, but they could be spent while alive. If he were to be killed by Lu Xuan with one slap, he could do nothing no matter how much riches he had.
What Lu Xuan did not know was that the half-step gold immortal opposite him had so many inner scenes that he could win an award for being the best actor. It would be good to have one less fight.
Although the half-step gold immortal opposite him was very strong, he was only strong when compared to another half-step gold immortal. To Lu Xuan, just a slap could kill him.
He did not even have the desire to attack!
This round was equivalent to an empty round.
Soon, those who wanted to see him fight but did not get what they wanted saw Lu Xuan fight.
In another round, another peerless genius of the Gold Immortal Realm finally appeared as Lu Xuan’s opponent, but it was of no threat to him at all.
The earth-shaking battle that everyone imagined did not happen at all. From the beginning to the end, the opponent only lasted three moves against Lu Xuan.
The three punches had directly crippled a Supreme Gold Immortal. He vomited blood, fainted, and was quickly sent out under the protection of the token.
Only then did everyone realize that Lu Xuan was as fierce as ever. He was not like what many people had guessed, that he was afraid of offending the sects of the Supreme Heaven, so his family had deliberately held back.
Zi Mingyue’s fight was just an accident. She was an exception.
In her ancestral home, Zi Mingyue, who was dressed like a housewife, was watching the battle. When she saw that a peerless genius had been crippled by Lu Xuan’s three punches because of his rude remarks, her face revealed an expression of “as expected”, with a hint of shyness.
“As expected, I’m special!”
