Chapter 703: Monstrous Youth

The stone monument recorded everything that happened during the task. All the Ming Temple ancient martial art practitioners fell silent, feeling ashamed. This was an utter disgrace. The entire ancient martial arts world knew of the incompetence of Bu Xingyi. In the future, it was possible that because of these people, it would spread throughout the entire ancient martial arts world. They had not expected that their own Sect Grand Elder would be so pathetic.

Bu Xingyi clenched his teeth tightly. His figure kept trembling, and his face was pale. He had never dreamed that such a stone monument would appear in the sky.

“Mo Wen, I will grind your bones to dust!”

Bu Xingyi raised his head and roared at the sky, placing all the blame on Mo Wen. If it wasn’t for Mo Wen, he would certainly have not ended up like this.

“Who is that? How can he be so incompetent? Luckily, nothing too serious happened during the task, although he did nearly cause us to fail the entire thing. However, this person is truly shameless. He actually hoped for the entire task to be failed over a little personal grudge. He is no more than a traitor, a disgrace to the human ancient martial art practitioners.”

“You don’t even know him? He is quite well known in the Floating Mystery Dimension. He is called Bu Xingyi and is the Ming Temple’s Third Sect Grand Elder. Rumor has it that his character is poor, but I would never have imagined that his ability would be so pathetic. I really don’t understand how he managed to become a Sect Grand Elder of the Ming Temple.”

“That is Bu Xingyi, the Ming Temple’s Third Sect Grand Elder. I don’t think I have met him before.”

“Humph. The Ming Temple dominates the Floating Mystery Dimension and is renowned in the ancient martial arts world. Who would have thought that there would actually be such trash among their Sect Grand Elders!”

“Haha! For the sect to have such a Sect Grand Elder, the Ming Temple most likely will become even more ‘famous.’ Once we leave the Fighting Spirit Tower, I will certainly spread this news.”

In an instant, discussions started in every corner. No one had expected that a dignified Ming Temple Third Sect Grand Elder would actually be so pathetic.

The Ming Temple had always been a very powerful sect. Their Sect Grand Elders were also very powerful. What they had just seen, however, had overturned the perceptions of many ancient martial art practitioners.

“Setting aside Bu Xingyi, what surprised me more was that this youth was actually so incredible. He is a rare talent. Even Hao Qian most likely would be far from comparable to him. Among the ancient martial arts world’s top ten geniuses, he could at least rank in the top five.”

“The youth is indeed outstanding. His performance is so extraordinary that the radiance of the old Martial Arts Grandmasters pales compared to his. However, he may not necessarily be able to rank in the top five among the top ten geniuses. After all, this is inside the Fighting Spirit Tower. The rules here are different from the outside world. Once outside, this youth may not necessarily still have such cultivation.”

“No matter how you put it, he is absolutely a rare talent. Even if his current cultivation is not high, in the future, he will most likely be rather extraordinary.”

“If you don’t know anything, then stop arguing over it. This youth is definitely extraordinary. He most likely has a chance of being in the top three, let alone the top five. That’s an achievement that can’t easily be pulled off. No one can simply practice flame power and cold power to the limit. If he wasn’t so young, I believe that he could even challenge for the position of the number one genius.”

Aside from Bu Xingyi, the discussions were mostly about Mo Wen. One was the most useless, and the other was the most outstanding. They immediately drew the attention of everyone, be it through their gazes or discussions.

Quite a few recognized Bu Xingyi. After all, as the Ming Temple’s Sect Grand Elder, he certainly had some fame.

However, too few people recognized Mo Wen. Many people were making astonished exclamations about this astounding youth that had suddenly appeared from nowhere.

“Ying’er, if you can pull Mo Wen into our Golden Dragon Sect, I can pass on the mantle of Golden Dragon Sect Sect Leader to him,” Granny Jin Hua said with her eyes shining. She tore her gaze away from Mo Wen and looked at her granddaughter.

Normal people may not have been able to tell, but as a Martial Arts Grandmaster, how could she fail to spot Mo Wen’s potential? She wasn’t simply comparing him to other youths. Even a Martial Arts Grandmaster like herself felt fearful and terrified by him.

Cultivation could be practiced through constant effort. With Mo Wen’s talent, he surely could reach the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm. But some things could not be accomplished with just effort. Some of the things that Mo Wen had, she as a dignified Martial Arts Grandmaster could not do.

Once such a person grew up, they would certainly dominate the ancient martial arts world, becoming a prominent existence.

Although the Golden Dragon Sect was a first-rate large sect, if it was compared with the sect at the very pinnacle of the ancient martial arts world, it still was far inferior. If Mo Wen joined the Golden Dragon Sect, she believed that the Golden Dragon Sect could absolutely aim for the pinnacle in the future.

“Granny, Mo Wen is not an easy person to control. The chances of him joining the Golden Dragon Sect are too slim. Also, even if he does join the Golden Dragon Sect, he would most likely try to find ways to assimilate us, and not go all out to develop the Golden Dragon Sect.”

Jin Ying laughed bitterly. She had not come in contact with Mo Wen many times, but she understood his personality somewhat. She could tell from his eyes that he was different than everyone else. A small shrine like the Golden Dragon Sect would find it difficult to accommodate a Great Buddha like him.

“That youth is too powerful. How did he do it?”

On a hill, Gong Xingyu gradually retracted his gaze from the stone monument. His eyes were full of astonishment. He was in a daze for quite a while. He was not too concerned about Bu Xingyi’s performance during the task. It was Mo Wen’s performance that had completely stunned him.

The youth was so strong! What cultivation did he have right now? What would he be like if they waited for him to become a Martial Arts Grandmaster?

“Grandfather, can Mo Wen truly compare with the top three of the top ten geniuses?”

Gong Zhangyan drew a deep breath as he looked at his own grandfather. He was also shocked and had not been rendered speechless for a while. Originally, he had thought that even if Mo Wen was more powerful than him, Mo Wen would not be that much more powerful. Only now did he understand the difference between the two of them was much larger than he had imagined.

“Zhangyan, do you have a death grudge with Mo Wen?” Gong Xingyu asked with a serious expression. Even from his voice, Gong Zhangyan could sense the importance of his question.

Gong Zhangyan fell silent for a while before he sighed and said, “No, my problem with him all stems from Pei Fengwu. Regarding this, my jealousy was too strong. Also, he spared my life once before this.”

Gong Zhangyan’s feelings were complicated. Before this, Mo Wen had killed Hou Jingfeng but not him. He had not only spared him because Pei Fengwu had pleaded on his behalf; at the same time, Mo Wen was telling him that they had no death grudge.

However, Gong Zhangyan knew that if he treated Mo Wen as an enemy again, the next time, things would not be so easy.

“That is good.” Gong Xingyu breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he felt a pang of terror. He had not realized that Mo Wen had spared Gong Zhangyan’s life once. If Mo Wen had not done so, right now Gong Zhangyan most likely would have...

“Zhangyan, as long as he does not come looking for you in the future, then you shouldn’t make an enemy of this Mo Wen. Don’t even have too much contact with him. Since he has already spared you once, I think he will not pursue the matter again. Drop this grudge between the two of you. As for Pei Fengwu... give up on her.”

Gong Xingyu sighed. Mo Wen had already reached a level that made him and the entire Gong Clan fearful. He had a crazy thought of killing off Mo Wen, but at the same time, he deeply understood that if they failed, the results would be unthinkable. Mo Wen was no ordinary person. Even Gong Xingyu as a Martial Arts Grandmaster was not one hundred percent confident of killing him.

Gong Zhangyan’s lips quivered. His expression kept changing as he clenched his two fists tightly. His grandfather had told him to have no contact with Mo Wen, and, at the same time, had told him to not contact Pei Fengwu anymore.

Before this, he had been courting Pei Fengwu. He liked Pei Fengwu, and their match was also the wish of the clan. Gong Zhangyan now knew that, since his grandfather said so, he would no longer have the support of the clan in the matter of him and Pei Fengwu.

“Zhangyan, good men have ambitions everywhere. You cannot only focus on matters of the heart,” Gong Xingyu said with earnestness.

Since the relationship between Mo Wen and that Pei Fengwu was close, at least in the eyes of Gong Zhangyan, Gong Zhangyan continued pursuit of Pei Fengwu would most likely cause him to make an enemy of Mo Wen. This was something that Gong Xingyu did not want to see.

“Fengwu, is that member of yours truly just a Four stars Executor of the Huatian Palace like you said before?” Zong Changsheng asked as he looked at Pei Fengwu beside him, unable to conceal the astonishment in his eyes.

He had previously discovered some things about Mo Wen by talking to Pei Fengwu. But Pei Fengwu’s understanding of Mo Wen was from a few months ago when Mo Wen was a Huatian Palace Four stars Executor. Although Mo Wen’s performance back then was already outstanding, his talent now was far more prodigious.

Could it be that such a person was only a Four stars Executor of the Huatian Palace?

“I already have no way of explaining it. Regarding him, I have always considered him a... weirdo...”

Pei Fengwu laughed bitterly. Right now, she could not say anything, or rather, she had nothing to say. Mo Wen had never failed to surprise her, and she was more and more surprised each time. In her eyes, Mo Wen was indeed an odd character. An abnormal, complete weirdo from top to bottom.

“This person... is incredible!” Zong Changsheng said with mixed feelings. He could tell that Pei Fengwu was not that familiar with Mo Wen from her expression.

“Mo Wen, this monster... he has actually surpassed grandfather.”

Jun Wulei covered his face with one hand, wearing a speechless look. This Mo Wen was practically a monster, getting more and more powerful and peculiar all the time.

If he continued to develop like this, what would he grow to become? Jun Wulei was tingling with anticipation as he thought about it.

“Maybe our Ming Preservation Faction will finally rise again. Maybe with his protection, Gong Biluo can also have her revenge and need not hide anymore,” Jun Wulei said, mumbling to himself. Right now, he finally understood why his grandfather had attached such importance to Mo Wen from the start.

The double cultivation reward descended. Not long after, the entire space descended into a frenzied massacre. All the human ancient martial art practitioners went all-out killing monstrous beasts. They strived to raise their cultivation even higher and make it even richer in order to face the final challenge.

Mo Wen also did not bother with other matters, diving intently into the ranks of those killing monstrous beasts. Before the final challenge descended upon them, he had to reach the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm.
