221: If you were in the same level as me, you could still be number one.

Chapter 221: If You Were My Equal! Could You Still Be Number One?

After finishing his meal, Su Bai continued to his next destination: Second Martial Arts Academy.

Unexpectedly, this time Su Bai encountered some “obstacles.”

Beneath the Martial Emperor Pagoda of Second Sacred Martial Arts University, a dense crowd of Second Sacred Martial Arts University students completely blocked the entrance to the Martial Emperor Pagoda.

They looked at the arriving Su Bai as if facing a formidable enemy.

Leading the Second Sacred Martial Arts University students was a young man in his twenties.

He had ear-length black hair, but his eyes were an eerie ice-blue, giving him a very sinister feeling.

The young man held a black long saber, already unsheathed, in his hand.

“You’re Su Bai, the Devil King of Seventh Martial Arts Academy, aren’t you?!”

The young man looked at Su Bai with an unfriendly expression and cold eyes.

“Do you know what kind of place this is?”

Su Bai glanced at the majestic Martial Emperor Pagoda before him, sensing an Aura that was far more magnificent, towering, and ancient than the five Martial Emperor Pagodas he had experienced previously.

He calmly looked at the young man in front of him and spoke in a very indifferent and composed tone.

“I came here to challenge the Pagoda, so do you think I know or not?”

The young man’s expression hardened.

“I think you don’t know anything at all!”

“First, Second Sacred Martial Arts University was founded by the first two Martial Gods to emerge in our Huaxia!”

“Neither in history nor in foundation,”

“can later Martial Arts Universities like yours compare.”

“If you want to become famous overnight and shock the world, no one will stop you.”

“But if you want to climb up by stepping on the faces of the First and Second Sacred Martial Artists, you’ll have to ask if the saber in my hand agrees first.”

As the young man spoke, a powerful Aura surged from him, and an icy, bone-chilling wind swept past his face, with specks of snow appearing around his body!

“If you want to enter the Pagoda, you’ll have to step over the corpses of all the students of our Second Sacred Martial Arts University first!”

The young man’s expression was indifferent. He gripped his saber with both hands and slowly raised it above his head.

“I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Bai Hengchuan, number two on the seven saints ranking.”

“I heard you’re this year’s Top Scorer. Coincidentally, I’m two years older than you and was also the top scorer of my year.”

In an instant, all eyes in the arena converged on Su Bai.

Su Bai’s expression, however, remained calm.

He walked step by step towards Bai Hengchuan, and an indescribably terrifying Aura surged from his body.

“Not coincidental at all.”

Su Bai spoke very plainly, “If you were my equal… you!”

“Could only be behind me!!!”

After speaking, Su Bai simply extended his right hand towards Bai Hengchuan.

Su Bai threw a punch.

The area in front of his fist appeared visually distorted, like air scorched by high temperatures.

This was a manifestation of immense physical strength, condensed to an extreme.

Bai Hengchuan, the black-haired young man, clearly sensed the terror of this punch. His expression changed drastically, and he gritted his teeth, fiercely slashing down with his saber at Su Bai.

The black long saber vibrated rapidly at an extremely high frequency, and a large amount of white snowflakes and ice shards appeared around the blade.

The surrounding temperature plummeted instantly.

It was summer, and many people were wearing short-sleeved T-shirts, but at this moment, they were so cold that they got goosebumps on both arms.

“As expected of the number two on the seven saints ranking, Bai Hengchuan’s elemental control ability has probably reached Level 3, and his saber technique is also exquisite…”

Someone exclaimed in shock.

They had only known before that the top three on the seven saints ranking were strong, but they hadn’t expected them to be this strong.

Many people, facing this saber strike, didn’t even have the courage to confront it directly.

The gap was too wide.

But what these people marveled at and were shocked by, under Su Bai’s fist, all shattered as easily as tattered cloth or brittle paper.

Those bone-chilling snowflakes didn’t even have time to land on Su Bai’s body before they were dissipated by the heat emitted from the surging Qi and blood within him.

Su Bai simply threw a plain punch.

Great skill appears artless, extreme cleverness seems clumsy!

The fist technique of Major Achievement in the Control Realm, coupled with a vast amount of Qi and blood far exceeding that of an ordinary Martial Ancestor Martial Artist,

and the terrifying Qi and blood amplification brought by Stellar Force Application.

Su Bai’s punch advanced with overwhelming force.

A visible “vacuum” trace appeared in the area directly in front of his fist, reaching Bai Hengchuan!

“Bang bang bang!”

A violent series of explosions resounded.

The ice and snow attached to Bai Hengchuan’s black long saber directly burst outwards, as if struck head-on by an invisible force. He could barely hold his saber steady.

“Damn it, how is he so strong?!”

Bai Hengchuan’s face was filled with horror!

Su Bai clearly hadn’t even used his Protective Aura.

Who in Seven Sages University didn’t know that Devil King Su Bai’s golden Protective Aura was incredibly domineering!!

After becoming a Martial King, Protective Aura became the Martial Artist’s most powerful offensive method.

Yet now, Su Bai, without even showing his Protective Aura, had pushed him to this extent.

Is this even human?

And he’s a New Student two years younger than him?!

Bai Hengchuan had an expression as if he’d seen a ghost. Suddenly, he gritted his teeth, and an extremely powerful Martial Dao Will abruptly erupted from his body!!!

With the appearance of this Aura, Bai Hengchuan’s expression immediately became indifferent, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and even his pupils turned into a single line of ice-blue.

“Grandmaster Will!”

All those standing below were students of Sacred Martial Arts University, and many with sharp eyes immediately recognized the source of Bai Hengchuan’s change.

“Even if it’s just a trace, it’s a genuine, completely personal Martial Dao Will.”

“Just this point alone means Bai Hengchuan is already many steps ahead of those in the Late Stage!”

“Within ten years, Bai Hengchuan will definitely become a Martial Venerable!”

Some Senior Students who had already reached Level 6 and were beginning to seek the path to Martial Venerable advancement were deeply moved.

It couldn’t help but amaze people, because this was what they dreamed of!!!

How many Martial Ancestors could the seven Sacred Martial Arts Universities produce each year?

And among these Martial Ancestors, how many could become Martial Venerables!!!?

The proportion was completely off. The transition from Martial Ancestor to Martial Venerable had stumped countless individuals who were once praised as Geniuses.

Bai Hengchuan had already stepped one foot onto the threshold of a Level 7 Grandmaster!

Seeing Bai Hengchuan’s Martial Dao Will manifest, Su Bai suddenly retracted his fist.

The domineering Aura he had displayed earlier vanished without a trace in a breath.

His eyes gleamed slightly as he looked at Bai Hengchuan in front of him, a hint of surprise appearing on his face, though it was merely surprise.

Bai Hengchuan’s expression was icy cold, and the area around his feet was already covered in ice and snow, truly astonishing.

“Now do you know what the foundation of an old Sacred Martial Arts University is?”

Bai Hengchuan spoke faintly.

He tried to find emotions like fear or shock in Su Bai’s eyes.

But he failed.

He strangely discovered that...

Su Bai’s eyes contained only appreciation?

That kind of appreciation a Senior shows a junior?!

This was truly bizarre.

Bai Hengchuan gritted his teeth internally.

He had never seen anyone so good at showing off.

Just wait until I freeze you into an ice block, then let’s see if you can still show off!

Just as he was thinking, he heard Su Bai casually say: “Is this your Martial Dao Will?”

Bai Hengchuan frowned, but before he could speak,

Su Bai’s next sentence calmly arrived.

“Too weak.”

The next moment.

Bai Hengchuan: “…”

To be precise, most of the people on the scene were “blinded.”

An incredibly brilliant golden sun rose behind Su Bai, its radiant light spreading everywhere, “stabbing” at people’s eyes, making it almost impossible to keep them open.

When the golden light disappeared,

The sun illusion vanished.

Everyone saw Bai Hengchuan, propped on his saber, kneeling on one knee, his face deathly pale, drenched in sweat from head to toe, his eyes wide, and his face filled with disbelief.

The ground that had previously been covered in ice and snow.

was now clean, without even a drop of water.

Su Bai walked leisurely towards the Martial Emperor Pagoda.

As he passed Bai Hengchuan, he stopped and whispered.

“Foundation is demonstrated by strength, not by words.”

After speaking!

He continued to walk forward!
