Warrior’s Promise - Chapter 67

Chapter 67

Su Mo was feeling depressed because his Martial Soul had not progressed for a long time .

He carelessly swallowed five Beast Souls, and he never anticipated improving his Martial Soul in this way .

However, an unintentionally positive outcome appeared . At this moment, his Devouring Martial Spirit was shaking .

The seventh yellow halo suddenly appeared next to the sixth .

Su Mo's eyes widened instantly in surprise . Finally, his Devouring Martial Spirit progressed .

His Martial Soul was promoted from Rank 6 Human Class to Rank 7 Human Class .

"Huff!"

He slowly let out a mouthful of heavy air and no longer felt depressed .

"I seemed over-worried . My Martial Soul could still progress, and I just need more Beast Souls or Martial Souls!"

Su Mo smiled again .

As long as his Martial Soul could progress, no matter how many Beast Souls or Martial Souls he needed, he would manage ways to get them .

He had obtained tremendous wealth in this trial test so it was no problem for him to buy a large number of Beast Souls .

Su Mo put all trophies into the storage ring while putting Demonic Cores into a storage pouch .

After going back to Gale Island, he would sort them out . He would hand over those unuseful things to the sect so as to exchange for some contribution points .

Then, he would use contribution points to exchange countless Beast Souls .

Thus, his Martial Soul would be promoted soon .

Immediately, Su Mo sat cross-legged in the small cave and was ready to cultivate in order to consolidate his cultivation .

He had grabbed more than 1,100 Demonic Cores . In addition to his own, the Demonic Cores totaled nearly 1,300 . In this case, he did not need to hunt Demonic Cores .

He would certainly be the champion in this Qingyuan Trial Test .

How time flew!

The next day, nearly at noon, a loud shout sounded above the island, instantly waking Su Mo up .

"The trial test is over and all disciples must come back within four hours . "

The shout spread over the entire island . It was said by Elder Wei .

Hearing this, Su Mo stood up, stepped out of the cave, and flew towards the edge of the woods .

Meanwhile, hundreds of new disciples on the island fleeted through the woods and went back .

. . .

Outside the woods on Qingyuan Island, many people had gathered, including dozens of outer elders and a few new disciples .

These new disciples had given up the trial test so they had left the woods early .

Some disciples had to give up the test because of their severe injuries, such as Li Feng .

Some disciples were knocked out early because they were very weak and could not block forceful demonic beasts so they had to ask the elders for help .

"Elders, can you guess who can be the champion of this Qingyuan Trial Test?"

The elders stood together, and a square-faced elder in his middle age asked with a smile .

"The champion must be one of the eight disciples at the Spiritual Martial Realm!" Another elder in a blue robe asserted .

The square-faced elder rolled his eyes at his words and sneered, "Elder Zhao, you're saying nonsense . Even a three-year-old child knows that the champion must be a Spiritual Martial Realm disciple . "

"Humf! You tell me who will be the champion!"

The elder in blue robe huffed coldly .

"In my view, the champion must be one of the five disciples with Martial Soul of Rank 8 Human Class, but I'm not sure who it is . "

The square-faced elder smiled .

"Humf! I do not agree with you . Disciples with higher Martial Soul definitely have stronger combat strength than those with lower ones . But the trial test isn't a pure competition . Those powerful disciples will not likely obtain the most Demonic Cores . "

The elder in blue robe sneered back .

"Elder Zhao is right! Since they are all in the Spiritual Martial Realm and almost have the same cultivation, it's hard to judge . "

Other elders nodded their heads in unison .

"Elder Wei, in your eyes, who will be most likely to become champion?"

The square-faced elder turned his head around and respectfully asked Elder Wei .

After some thoughts, Elder Wei fixed his eyes on the deep woods and said, "I think it's Luo Qianfan . "

"Oh, why does Elder Wei say so?" All elders asked .

"Among the eight Spiritual Martial Realm disciples, the five geniuses are the most likely to be the champion . Since they have the same force, it's really hard to tell . "

Elder Wei nodded, then continued, "When it comes to the possibility, it must be Luo Qianfan .

"The long-distance attack of his bow and arrow is terrifying . He can quickly kill demonic beasts . In such a case, he overruns other professional martial artists .

"Luo Qianfan, however, is just the most likely one . The final rankings can only be known after the result of the trial test," Elder Wei slowly said .

"Elder Wei, you're right!"

Hearing what Elder Wei said, they all nodded and agreed with him .

An archer was probably not good at close combat, but a powerful archer was the King of Distant Fight . He could launch a long-distance attack to smash all other attacks .

More than 30 elders of Gale Island once attempted to kill an enemy who was an archer .

However, the result shamed those elders down to the ground .

They were overwhelmingly capable of killing him, but these elders could not even approach him .

With 50,000 meters away from them, his arrows did not miss, throwing the elders into a shame . Under such circumstances, they could not take a step forward .

Although the elders were all good at close combat, their attack force faded away at 5,000 meters, let alone 50,000 meters . If they were more than 25,000 meters from an enemy, they were totally vulnerable .

In the end, it was Gale Island owner who killed this man .

The elders were chatting . As time went by, the disciples continuously went back .

Half of the disciples had returned within two hours .

Whoosh!

After a two-hour-journey, Su Mo rushed out of the woods like a cheetah .

Nobody paid attention to him .

Standing at the edge of the woods, Su Mo looked around and found that Yan Qi, Feng Zilan, Luo Qianfan, and the others had not yet returned .

Su Mo saw Li Feng healing himself on a huge stone, and he walked towards him .

"Li Feng, how's your wound?" asked Su Mo when approaching Li Feng .

Li Feng opened his eyes and smiled, "I'm fine . My wounds are stabilized . I'll reach full recovery in nearly a month . "

"Su Mo, I'm glad that you came back . Honestly speaking, I was worried about you gunning for Huang Yunqing . "

Li Feng shook his head and felt relieved in his heart .

If Su Mo was killed gunning for Huang Yunqing to avenge for him, he would blame himself .

"Huang Yunqing has already died!" Su Mo said with a smile .

"What? Huang Yunqing is dead?"

Li Feng was in a daze and felt puzzled .

"I didn't kill him, but I witnessed that he was killed by a demonic beast," Su Mo said .

It was true that Huang Yunqing was not killed by him, but by a black Demonic Insect .

"Killed by a demonic beast?"

Li Feng felt relieved and then nodded his head . As far as he was concerned, Su Mo was unable to kill Huang Yunqing, but it was quite normal for Huang Yunqing to be bitten to death by a demonic beast .
