Warrior’s Promise

At that moment, although the Fight Meet had not reached its end, the First Position had been already engraved in stone.

The people of the Path Sect were all smiles. As for those of the other Six Super Forces, their expressions were gloomy. At this Fight Meet, all the glory and titles had been seized by the Path Sect.

On the Fighting Stage, Su Mo’s body seemed to shine an invisible light as his entire being became the centre of attention, dazzling beyond words and attracting everyone’s gazes.

Su Mo turned his head and looked at Yun You You from afar in the Northern Stands. Realising that she was looking at him, he immediately smiled at her and floated back to the spectator’s stand, looking indescribably suave.

Seeing this, Yun You You also flashed a smile. She had developed a sense of curiosity towards Su Mo. He was a mysterious character. He was not very famous, however, his talent and strength were able to instantly kill all demons.

“You You, Su Mo is definitely interested in you!” Ling Xuan whispered as she saw Su Mo’s move.

“Sister Ling Xuan, how do you know?” Yun You You asked curiously.

“Need you ask? You You, your emotional quotient is really low!”

Ling Xuan rolled her eyes and continued, “Haven’t you noticed him always looking at you? It’s obvious that he’s interested in you!”

“Maybe!” Yun You You blushed and declined to comment. It was not something that she would think about when it came to talking about emotions.

On the other hand, after Su Mo had returned to the spectator stands, all the disciples and elders of Path Sect, even Sage-to-be Zhen Gu rose in respect.

“Su Mo, this time, you are the first in Fight Meet. You have strengthened the sacredness of Path Sect and brought honor to us. When we return to Path Sect, I will definitely ask them to give you a huge reward.” Sage-to-be Zhen Gu said with a smile.

Sage-to-be Zhen Gu was delighted. It was a big deal to clinch First Place in the Fight Meet. This was not just Su Mo’s honour but the honour of Path Sect. This allowed Path Sect to raise its head in front of the Sun Moon Tribe and the Six Super Forces.

In the past, as the Path Sect disciples had successively lost battles, their status was greatly affected. Now, the tables had turned and they were rising to power. Who would dare to belittle them in the future?

“Thank you Elder Zhen Gu!” Su Mo slightly cupped his fist in his hand. He certainly would not refuse a reward since there was one.

“When you return to Path Sect later, I will give you a surprise!” Sage-to-be Zhen Gu said with a smile.

“Surprise?” Su Mo was shocked. However, he did not take it too seriously. With his current situation, there were already no rewards that could surprise him.

“Then I will wait for Elder Zhen Gu’s surprise!” Su Mo said with a smile.

Afterwards, Su Mo chatted with Elder Zhen Gu, while Feng Guang chimed in from time to time.

The fourth round of the Fight Meet continued after a while later. Round after round went on, seemingly never-ending.

As Su Mo had earned 4 points successively, he did not have to fight in the next few rounds as his score had far exceeded the others.

Su Mo only had to challenge again at the eight round. He casually picked an opponent who directly conceded defeat.

This was also the case for the ninth round, where the opponent admitted defeat once again.

The same happened for the tenth round. Nobody was willing to fight with Su Mo.

After ten rounds, the entire Fight Meet had ended and the rankings were clear.

Unsurprisingly, Su Mo had clinched first place.

Zhuo Jian Hao was in second place, Ling Feng third, Yang Tian Cheng fourth, Yan Lan Tian fifth, You Lang sixth and Lei Yun Hao was seventh.

The remaining eighth, ninth and tenth position were taken by geniuses of the Shining Spiritual Tribe, Black Flame Tribe and Thundercloud Birds Tribe respectively.

Even though Zhuo Jian Hao, Ling Feng and the other four had lost to Su Mo, they would not lose to others.

At the end, the six of them also competed with each other and a final ranking was obtained.

At that moment, Elder Yin Zee stood up and looked around the entire place. He said in a loud, clear voice, “The Seven Super Forces of this Fight Meet have been successful. In the coming month, the ten of you will be able to Cultivate in Imperial Pagoda for free. A month later, you may proceed to the Tribe Quarters to receive other rewards!”

“Alright!” said the ten of them in unison.

Immediately after, Elder Yin Ze waved his arm and ten black Jade Tablets flew towards the ten of them.

“This is the pass to Imperial Pagoda, it will allow you to practice there for free!” said Elder Yin Ze.

“Thank you Elder Yin Ze!” the ten of them received the Jade Pendants and cupped their fists to express their gratitude.

“Alright, now that the Fight Meet had ended, everyone is dismissed!”

Elder Yin Ze said in a loud, clear voice once again. His body flashed and he flew out through the exit.

Other people of the Sun Moon Tribe followed suit and Yun You You also followed behind Elder Yin Ze and flew outside.

While they were flying, Yun You You realised that Su Mo had been looking at her. This caused her to feel a little flustered, however she did not pay much attention to it and left the Empty Space of the battlefield.

Seeing this, Su Mo sighed silently. He wanted to get close to Qing Xuan, or let her regain her memory. It seemed that there was still a long way to go.

“Hehe! Su Mo, let’s go!” Elder Yin Ze was in high spirits. He called for Su Mo and led the Path Sect crowd out of the Empty Space of the battlefield.

The Fight Meet ended and all the spectators left. The result of the Fight Meet was also spread across the entire Sun Moon City.

The incomparably huge Sun Moon City instantly burst into an uproar as discussions erupted amongst them. Su Mo’s name resounded in Sun Moon Citty.

“I heard that a demon appeared in the Path Sect during the Fight Meet!”

“That’s right! It is said that he is only of Level 8 Martial Emperor Realm Cultivation, yet his Fighting Power defies the natural order. He crushed the Demonic Geniuses of the Six Super forces and won First Place in the Fight Meet!”

“He’s so powerful, I wonder where the Path Sect found this Demon called Su Mo?”

The crowd buzzed with discussion, all over the streets and roads of Sun Moon City. It was everywhere.

After Su Mo had left the battlefield, he parted with the crowd from Path Sect. As he wanted to go to Imperial Palace to cultivate, the people of Path Sect could not wait for him. As such, they left Sun Moon City and returned to Path Sect.

Before they went their own ways, Sage-to-be Zhen Gu once again reminded Su Mo to be careful in Sun Moon Tribe and not get into trouble.

Su Mo went on his own. Not long after, he came to the Imperial Palace and walked straight in.

He showed the Black Jade Tablet to the Sun Moon Tribe elite that was responsible for guarding the Imperial Palace. Unimpeded, Su Mo proceeded all the way to the ninth floor.

At that moment, in the Ninth Floor Empty Space of the Imperial Palace, Yan Lan Tian, Yang Tian Cheng and the other seven geniuses had arrived before him as they sat down cross-legged and cultivated.

Su Mo silently walked to a corner and sat down cross-legged. He closed his eyes and started to cultivate.

Not far away, Yang Tian Cheng opened his eyes slightly and his cold gaze fell on Su Mo, flashing with a cold look.

Yang Tian Cheng hated Su Mo to the core. The former wanted to torment him brutally and humiliate him in front of the Holy Lady. He had to seek his revenge.

However, his power was not as good as Su Mo’s. In order to seek revenge, he had to make a long-term plan.
