"Wei Tong senior is so amazing!" exclaimed a disciple.

"Yes, I heard that Wei Tong senior was only at the Origin Energy Realm perfection ten years ago. I didn't expect him to advance to the later stage of the Core Lake realm after ten years," someone said.

"The aura emitted by the Core Lake realm is so powerful. I wonder when I will be able to advance to this realm," said the crowd below, discussing among themselves.

Meanwhile, Li Changfeng and others in the distance shook their heads slightly.

They seemed to look down on Wei Tong a little.

"Wei Tong took a full ten years to advance to the later stage of the Core Lake realm. His cultivation talent can't be considered poor, but it's not outstanding either," said the elder Su Tianming.

"Indeed," nodded the sect master Li Changfeng, "Compared to my precious disciple Xiao Ming, he is indeed far behind."

After a pause, Li Changfeng smiled and said, "I have only taken Xiao Ming as my disciple in my entire life, but with just this one disciple, he can match countless young talents within the sect!"

Upon hearing this, Su Tianming couldn't help but feel dissatisfied and said, "Although Xiao Ming is outstanding, my disciple Lin Feng is not inferior!"

"Just wait and see. Lin Feng will definitely shine in this sect competition and make a name for himself!"

Li Changfeng remained silent, just smiling indifferently.

On the high platform.

The inner disciple who had stepped onto the martial arts stage earlier saw Wei Tong coming and immediately jumped down from the high platform without saying a word.

He was admitting defeat.

As Wei Tong had just said, the sect competition had always been the battlefield of the strong. Not to mention him, an inner disciple at the Origin Energy Realm, even many true disciples would not dare to step onto the stage.

If he continued to stay on the stage, it would be asking for trouble.

After Wei Tong forced his opponent to retreat, he looked around again and said loudly, "Which senior brother is willing to come up and spar with me?!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

A handsome figure stood up.

It was Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming's body swayed slightly, turning into a gust of wind and instantly appearing on the high platform.

Facing Wei Tong directly.

"It's you? Xiao Ming?" Wei Tong was somewhat surprised as he looked Xiao Ming up and down.

"You know me?"

Xiao Ming was somewhat surprised.

"Xiao Junior Brother is the only disciple personally accepted by the sect master. Although I, Wei Tong, am ignorant, I have still heard of you," Wei Tong smiled and said.

"But, although you are the sect master's disciple, you entered the sect not long ago, and your cultivation level is still..."

Wei Tong hadn't finished speaking when he suddenly froze.

Because he was shocked to find that Xiao Ming's aura was also at the Core Lake realm!

And it was even at the mid-stage of the Core Lake realm!

"You actually cultivated to the mid-stage of the Core Lake realm?!" Wei Tong exclaimed in disbelief, his words breaking due to his eagerness.

"You just entered the Awakening Pool not long ago and awakened. How did you break through to the Core Lake realm so quickly, even surpassing both the Origin Energy and Core Lake realms?!"

Realizing Xiao Ming's realm, Wei Tong completely lost his composure.

He, Wei Tong, had spent a full ten years to cultivate from the Origin Energy Realm to the mid-stage of the Core Lake realm, thinking that he was also a young talent.

However, compared to Xiao Ming, his achievements were nothing!

Compared to the terrifying Xiao Ming, his cultivation speed was like that of a turtle!

Not only did Wei Tong's face change, but many disciples below were also shocked when they discovered Xiao Ming's realm.

"I, I didn't see it wrong, right? Xiao Ming is actually a powerhouse at the Core Lake realm?!" a disciple subconsciously rubbed his eyes, seemingly unable to believe what he saw.

"The aura is so intense, reaching the sky. It is indeed the Core Lake realm!"

"But I heard that Xiao Ming was just promoted from a miscellaneous disciple to a true disciple by the sect master not long ago. How long has it been, about a month? How did he advance so quickly!"

"A monster, he is definitely a monster!"

"I'm afraid Xiao Ming is a genius who has never appeared before," a disciple concluded.

Somewhere in the crowd.

Lin Feng clenched his fist secretly.

He had always believed that he was not inferior to Xiao Ming, so he had been tirelessly cultivating. Finally, he condensed his Core Lake and advanced to the early stage of the Core Lake realm.

I originally thought that I had caught up to Xiao Ming, but unexpectedly, Xiao Ming has still pulled ahead by a small margin.

Not far away, Wang Hao, after hearing the discussions of the disciples around him, revealed a hint of excitement.

"I didn't expect the small Spirit Sword Gate to have such great talent. It seems that there are many geniuses on the Immortal Martial Continent, not just me," Wang Hao secretly exclaimed in excitement.

"But this is just right."

"With the comparison to other geniuses, my path will not be lonely!"

Xiao Ming didn't feel much about the shock and discussions of the disciples below.

However...

Li Changfeng in the distance became proud.

Xiao Ming's reputation in the sect was even greater than his own!

On the high platform...

Wei Tong took several deep breaths before barely suppressing his shock.

Then, a strong fighting spirit surged on his face.

"Xiao Ming! I admit that your cultivation speed has frightened me. Perhaps you really are an extremely rare monstrous genius. However! You are only at the mid-stage of the Core Lake realm, while I have already reached the late stage!"

With a clang, Wei Tong drew the emerald green long sword at his waist.

He held the sword, pointed it coldly at Xiao Ming, and said, "Today, let me experience the methods of the talented Xiao!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Tong stomped heavily on the high platform, rushing forward like a cannonball with a violent gust of wind. At the same time, the long sword in his hand swung wildly, slashing out numerous dense green sword auras.

The sword auras filled the sky, and the intense wood spiritual energy swept out like a tide.

At this moment, the flowers, grass, and trees around the square suddenly brightened!

Facing the attacking sword auras, Xiao Ming smiled faintly, twisted his foot, and disappeared on the spot.

Earth-ranked body technique, Wind Spirit Step!

Xiao Ming's disappearance was sudden, causing Wei Tong to lose his target of attack in an instant, leaving him stunned.

Just then...

A fist radiating dazzling light suddenly appeared behind Wei Tong. The fist was as large as a basin and exuded a strong Great River Sword Intent.

"Not good! Xiao Ming is attacking me from behind!"

Wei Tong inwardly exclaimed in alarm and instinctively defended with his sword. However, it was already too late.

Boom!

The powerful fist, carrying a domineering Sword Intent, heavily hit Wei Tong's back before he could turn around, sending him flying far away.

But it didn't end there.

While Wei Tong was still in mid-air, Xiao Ming, whose figure had become somewhat blurry, followed closely like a gust of wind and unleashed another fist strike.

Followed by the second, third, fourth...

The fifth strike!

Xiao Ming unleashed five consecutive fists imbued with the powerful Great River Sword Intent!

After the five strikes, Wei Tong's clothes were completely torn apart, and his body showed signs of bloodstains and bruises.

More importantly...

He didn't even have a chance to resist before receiving such a heavy blow. His body uncontrollably crashed down towards the high platform.

With a loud bang!

Wei Tong fell off the high platform and crashed heavily onto the ground, raising a choking cloud of dust.

After Wei Tong landed, the gust of wind on the high platform slowly dissipated, revealing Xiao Ming's figure.

Standing on the high platform, Xiao Ming stood with his hands behind his back, coldly looking around.

Below the platform, silence fell, and not even a bird chirped.

"Wei Tong senior brother... actually lost?" A disciple swallowed his saliva and said in astonishment.

"Yes, Wei Tong lost..."

"But Wei Tong is at the late stage of the Core Lake realm, one small realm higher than Xiao Ming."

"Being one small realm higher is not considered high," someone said softly, "geniuses like Xiao Ming usually have the ability to challenge higher realms, otherwise, they wouldn't be considered geniuses!"

"And, have you noticed that Senior Xiao didn't draw his sword from beginning to end? He only used his fists to strike Wei Tong. This shows that Senior Xiao hasn't even used his full strength..."
