Tyrant Sky Martial Soul-Chapter 2266 - 2269: Upper Eight Immortals Mountain Assessment, Chi Ling’er
Ling Xiao planned to give it a try as soon as he got his hands on the Steel Armored Bull Demon Martial Soul.
At the very least, he could use it until his cultivation level was raised to the Yin-Yang Realm 2nd Layer Hell Peak.
Later, if he found a better Martial Soul, he could always replace it.
Although there was no rank classification for Monster Beasts Martial Souls, there was still a difference in their level of strength.
The more powerful the Monster Beasts, the more potent the Martial Soul created from them; hence, switching to a Martial Soul that matched his cultivation level would greatly enhance Ling Xiao’s combat power.
In the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall, Ling Xiao once again received warm hospitality from the Outer Hall Master Lin Haoyu.
To Ling Xiao’s surprise, the Hei Xianshan Mountain Master was also present there.
He came specifically to discuss the issue of the Steel Armored Bull Demon Martial Soul.
"Hehe, even if you didn’t come, given my relationship with this young fellow Ling Xiao, the Steel Armored Bull Demon Martial Soul would have been reserved for him anyway."
Lin Haoyu laughed and said, "That’s a minor issue. However, there’s another matter—haven’t you informed this young fellow?"
Hearing Lin Haoyu’s words, Ling Xiao was clearly a bit puzzled.
"Because I wasn’t sure of the outcome, I didn’t mention it to prevent raising his hopes prematurely."
The Hei Xianshan Mountain Master shook his head and said.
"What exactly is this matter?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously, "Could you two seniors not explain it to me clearly?"
"Actually, it’s nothing much; you should know that there is an ascension examination for the Eight Immortal Mountain, right? I believe your talent and strength have basically met the requirements, so I’ve sent a request to the sect for you to attend the examination.
To be honest, since you’ve offended the Sha Clan, I can’t guarantee that this request will be approved.
That’s why I didn’t tell you."
The Hei Xianshan Mountain Master explained.
"Thank you, Mountain Master."
Ling Xiao smiled and said.
He was quite happy in his heart. If he could ascend to the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain, he’d gain more resources, which would speed up his cultivation improvement.
This was definitely something with a hundred benefits and no harm.
"No need to thank me, but since this matter has been brought up, I just want to particularly remind you that to participate in the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain examination, your cultivation level must at least reach the Yin-Yang Realm 2nd Layer Hell Peak.
Or the First Cycle Yin-Yang Realm 2nd Layer Hell Early Stage.
Of course, if you possess equivalent strength, exceptions can also be made."
The Hei Xianshan Mountain Master explained.
"It doesn’t seem too difficult."
Ling Xiao casually said.
This Upper Eight Immortals Mountain seemed mysterious; he thought it would be more formidable, but evidently, he overestimated it a bit.
"Don’t underestimate it, Ling Xiao. You should know that for this Upper Eight Immortals Mountain examination, probably less than a hundred people will get through the application stage.
In the end, maybe only three or four people will pass the examination; the odds are very slim.
So, even if you pass the application, don’t set your hopes too high. This time participating in the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain examination is just to broaden your horizons and compete with other young experts.
This way, you can improve faster, treat it as a learning opportunity."
"That’s natural."
Ling Xiao nodded, but in his heart, he was somewhat dismissive.
If he couldn’t pass, he wouldn’t take the exam; since he planned to participate, he would definitely pass.
He didn’t intend to waste time like the Crown Prince.
Of course, he wouldn’t say such things out loud to avoid being called arrogant by the Hei Xianshan Mountain Master and Lin Haoyu; emphasizing these truly held no meaning.
"It seems you are somewhat dismissive."
The Hei Xianshan Mountain Master, with his keen eyes, saw through Ling Xiao’s thoughts and sighed: "Previously, Lin Ruoxian should have told you that there are two great talents in the Lower Baxian Mountain, right?"
"She mentioned it, but she doesn’t know who they are."
Ling Xiao said.
"She doesn’t know, but I do."
The Hei Xianshan Mountain Master said, "These two individuals will also participate in this Upper Eight Immortals Mountain examination.
One is Sha Mo Yun from the Red Immortal Mountain, and the other is Chi Ling’er, also from the Red Immortal Mountain!
Their cultivation levels have already reached the Yin-Yang Realm 2nd Layer Hell.
You’ve met Sha Mo Yun, so I won’t say much about him.
As for Chi Ling’er, her cultivation level is at the First Cycle Yin-Yang Realm 2nd Layer Hell Intermediate Stage!
Your senior apprentice brother En Renfeng and Zhou Tong, although their cultivation is higher than theirs, their actual combat power is not stronger, and they are somewhat older.
They will also participate in the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain examination, but their chances of passing are very low. However, much higher than yours."
One would have thought Ling Xiao would be more restrained after this conversation.
But clearly, the Hei Xianshan Mountain Master misunderstood Ling Xiao’s nature.
Strong competitors didn’t discourage him; they triggered his fighting spirit.
Regardless, he needed to raise his cultivation to the Yin-Yang Realm 2nd Layer Hell before the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain examination began.
Moreover, what Ling Xiao seemed concerned about was not their strength, but the identity of one person.
"Is there any relation between Chi Ling’er and Chi Yan’er?"
Ling Xiao asked.
"Of course, there is a relation because Chi Ling’er is Chi Yan’er’s elder sister. Although Chi Ling’er belongs to the Reincarnation Warriors, they are born of the same mother, naturally having a blood relation."
The Hei Xianshan Mountain Master answered.
"Hehe, hopefully, she won’t come looking for trouble; otherwise, I wouldn’t mind letting her follow in Chi Yan’er’s footsteps."
Ling Xiao thought to himself.
He certainly wouldn’t take action against Chi Ling’er but hoped she wouldn’t provoke him. Otherwise, given his personality, he surely couldn’t let it go.
Chi Yan’er would then become an example for Chi Ling’er.
"Ling Xiao, you need to worry not only about Chi Ling’er but also be wary of that Sha Mo Yun!"
Lin Haoyu suddenly said.
"I know; the Sha Clan harbors deep hatred for me, and Sha Mo Yun certainly won’t easily spare me. Yet, I naturally won’t let him go easily either."
Ling Xiao wouldn’t forget Sha Mo Yun’s attempt to kill him.
If given the chance, Sha Mo Yun was someone he would certainly take down.
Upon hearing this, Lin Haoyu could only smile wryly.
Ling Xiao just had such a temperament, so what could he do?
"Alright, both seniors, I’ll say no more. I intend to head to the Reward Good and Punish Evil Hall to exchange some things now, so I’ll take my leave."
Ling Xiao not only intended to exchange but also planned to trade the remaining Netherworld Weapons for Contribution Points.
He originally had fifteen pieces, kept one for himself, gave one to Lin Yang, and left one for Ling Jiaojiao.
Twelve pieces were still available for exchange.
Presumably, they would fetch quite a few Contribution Points.
"Wait, don’t rush to leave!"
Just as Ling Xiao was about to step out the door, the Orange Immortal Mountain Mountain Master and Cheng Feiying arrived together.
The one who called out to stop Ling Xiao was indeed the Orange Immortal Mountain Mountain Master.
"Do you need something, Senior?"
Ling Xiao asked curiously.
"Well, how should I put this, sigh, it feels a bit embarrassing."
The Orange Immortal Mountain Mountain Master said bashfully: "Forget it, let’s just throw away this old face.
The thing is, previously, because Fei Ying encountered danger in the Ghost Prison, I said that whoever could save Fei Ying would marry her.
But now, it seems that can’t be fulfilled."
"Old fellow, you’re backing out?"
Lin Haoyu asked with a smile.
Actually, Ling Xiao didn’t mind about this. He had no feelings for Cheng Feiying, and one can’t marry someone just because they saved them.
