Yes! Restriction! This is something that came from Wang Tian's bloodline. A Restriction Poison! During his training, he noticed that he could restrict a living creature's movements with his saliva. As long as it came into contact with that creature's bloodstream. This was what happened to Zhou Weiqing. He let the dagger graze him. The dagger was licked by Wang Tian before. That's why he could restrict Zhou Weiqing.
Zhou Weiqing looked strangely at Wang Tian and then he said to the crowd,
"I lost."
Five hundred meters from the Battle Arena, the eyes of the Seventh Figure was flashing.
'I wouldn't have noticed it if I hadn't observed seriously and If I didn't have a high cultivation base. This kid... He manipulated Zhou Weiqint's thoughts and movements. Feigning his inevitable loss, boosting the opponent's confidence, making the opponent think that he was winning and then finally strike at the last moment!' the Seventh Figure saw through Wang Tian's acting.
'How cunning and skillful!'
These words shocked the crowd and they went into an uproar. The cheers of the disciples were deafening.
"Peak Master lost?" The crowd thought to themselves.
"Hmp! He's just lucky!"
"Hooray Wang Tian!"
"Congratulations Senior Brother Wang!"
"Whoo! Cousin Tian you won!" Wan Jhiayi cried out and he rushed towards Wang Tian. Giving him a big hug.
"A Peak Master defeated by his own disciple? What a joke!" One of the elders present ridiculed. Zhou Weiqing heard this but he didn't respond. He was very sad since he was defeated by Wang Tian, a disciple of his mountain.
Wang Tian also heard this. He knew that this was a chance for him to gain a bit more of the Peak Master's favor.
He looked at Wang Jhiayi and said with a loud voice while bowing deeply,
"Senior, thank you for going easy on me. Luck was just on my side and I happened to know a couple of tricks!" Wang Tian said.
"Senior, you are truly a master of the swords. Your skill and footwork were so amazing that I couldn't even touch you or hit you. Who knows what could've happened if you went and battled me with your hundred percent?" Wang Tian continued.
"I am so sorry Senior for causing so much trouble for you. Please, I am willing to accept punishment for being so audacious enough to challenge you and kill fellow sect disciples!" Wang Tian's voice was apologetic by a bit.
Zhou Weiqing heard this and thought that this brat was not bad. He can finally gain back a bit of reputation.
"You're very skilled Young Man. I got carried away and distracted at the last moment. But you have deeply impressed me!"
"I, Zhou Weiqing, the Peak Master of the Fourth Mountain, and the one who saw Wang Tian kill his fellow sect disciples. Hereby announce that his punishment will be alleviated!" Zhou Weiqing's voice reverberated through the sky.
Wang Tian smiled at Zhou Weiqing. He knew that he has finally regained a bit of the Peak Master's favor. Five meters from the Battle Arena, a figure could be seen with furrowed brows. This was Old third.
'He's lucky but he's very powerful and skilled! For sure he's going to be one of those who represent the Fourth Mountain! My plans of my grandson becoming the champion will not be realized! He has to be eliminated!' Old third thought.
He transmitted a message to Old Sixth. "Old Sixth! No matter what! We must kill this brat! He is a danger to my plans of my grandson becoming the champion!'
Old Sixth didn't respond but Old third knew that he has agreed. The both of then rushed towards the Battle Arena and in the blink of an eye, they were already there.
"Oi! Were are you two going?" Old first spoke up and then followed the two along with the other members of the council of judges.
These two were very powerful. Old third is a Zifu realm expert who has four crystals while Old Sixth has five crystals. Wang Tian was being basked by the crowd's congratulations but due to his bloodline, he was able to sense that someone was coming and they were filled with ill intentions. Yes! Every since Wang Tian cultivated more and more of his bloodline and his technique, it seems that the two forces created a passive spell for Wang Tian. Spider Death Sense was what Wang Tian named it. When this was established, he became immensely sensitive to those were evil as his Qi and bloodline were also of the evil kind. Earlier, Wang Tian sensed evil in Song Zhigao but it was too little to mention. Too insignificant. It paled far in comparison to his or these two. However, Wang Tian killed him not because he was a bit evil. But because he was arrogant.
These two however, emanated a very a evil presence. The sound of the crowd cheering and yelling was so powerful that even someone like Zhou Weiqing didn't sense the two. Only Wang Tian did.
Old third and Old Sixth rushed towards Wang Tian in an attempt to catch him. However, Wang Tian wasn't the one to let himself be taken just like that. He wasn't some masochist who liked being beat up. Wang Tian quickly infused his feet with his qi and then he jumped to the air, right before the two arrived.
The crowd saw Wang Tian flying. Thus, it was inevitable for them to see the two elders that attacked Wang Tian.
"Huh? Who are these people?" They all thought to themselves.
'Two people in cloaks? Who are these people? And why are they trying to attack me?' Wang Tian thought to himself confusedly.
At this moment, the other elders arrived. They saw that Wang Tian was being attacked. Other than Old Fourth and the Seventh Figure, they all shouted in unison,
"Preposterous! Why are you attacking a disciple!"
Zhou Weiqing looked at these people strangely and then after a moment, he realized who they were.
'Seven figures?... Are they the Council of Judges?! What are they doing here??' Zhou Weiqing thought to himself. Although he's the Peak Master of the Fourth Mountain, this was the first time he saw the officials of the Council of Judges. These people rarely went outside. Thus, he has not seen them before.
Wang Tian landed about twenty meters away from the two. They nodded towards each other and then in an instant, swords were in their hands. Their swords were made of gold and are both a high grade earth weapon. The two rushed towards Wang Tian.
Wang Tian saw this and he felt anger well up inside of him. 'I don't even know you! Yet you want to attack me?? What have I done wrong to you!? Are you both seriously asking to die?! Fine! Don't blame me if something happens to the both of you!' Wang Tian thought to himself angrily. This was the second time that people in this sect harassed him for no good reason. First was when that disciple he killed threatened to annihilate the nine generations of his family. Now these two elders were trying to kill him because of reasons he didn't know! Thinking of this, he got more and more enraged.
'If I don't show off my strength, these people will think I'm someone easily bullied!!'
Wang Tian brandished his dagger and then unleashed all of his Dark Qi. Holding nothing back. He was practically holding back in the whole fight, restricting his Qi. Restricting the power that he released because he didn't want to ruin his act. But now? These people were offering themselves up to him. Furthermore, he didn't want to be pestered by other people again and again.
'One way or another, blood shall be shed! Nothing will stop me!'
Wang Tian looked at the two who were less than 10 meters in front of him. He was angry but he also found this to be a bit funny.
'Why are these people so hell bent on dying? Either way, I get to harness Dark Qi from them.' Wang Tian grinned and thought.
The two men saw this grin and then they felt something was wrong.
'Does he have a lose screw in his head somewhere? Why is he grinning?' both of them thought.
In fact, all of the people here thought of this except for the Seventh Figure.
Earlier, she was the only one who noticed the change in aura that Wang Tian released. She felt that it was a bit restrained before however, she now felt as if it was a raging tempest. A dragon that was caged up for millions of years, trapped! And it was nos released. Her brows furrowed and then her intuition told her that these two comrades of hers were going to die if she didn't do anything. She didn't know why or how a Houtian Lifeform could give her this much bad feeling but she knew that what she was feeling was correct. She was a person who was rarely wrong when in regards to her intuition.
She acted quickly. In the blink of an eye, she was already in between the two opposing parties. The two parties were about five meters apart from each other. She stood sideways at the center.
"Divine Seal!" She shouted and pointed her right hand to Wang Tian and left hand to the other two. Wang Tian and the two elders felt themselves unable to move and their qi felt restricted. No matter how much they tried, they couldn't circulate their qi towards the other parts of their body.
Many things happened but the truth was that they all happened in just a few seconds. It happened so fast that the three remaining elders weren't given the chance to move or help Wang Tian out. Unlike the other three elders, they were fond of Wang Tian. They are all lovers of talent. That's why they see Wang Tian in a different way than the other three elders. The elder that didn't help Old Third and Old Sixth out had a sour expression.
"Elder Sister Seventh!" The two of them shouted in shock and with a bit of fear in their tone.
'Elder Sister Seventh?' Wang Tian thought to himself and then looked at the lady in front of him. He couldn't move nor could he speak. He could only rest his eyes on the figure in front of him who was wearing a cloak. The figure's back was facing him so he couldn't help but look over the figure's butt.
'Even with the cloak, she can't hide her fascinating asset.' He sighed in his mind with a bit of lust and admiration. However, he quickly tossed it to the back of his mind as he started to contemplate about what happened.
'She's capable of restricting the circulation of my qi? What kind of spell is this? My Qi isn't something that can be restricted that easily. Even if the opponent is much higher in cultivation!' He thought to himself. He was right. His Dark Qi is something that comes from the primordial times. A time filled with nothing but darkness and destruction. That's why he was rather surprised by the fact that this lady could restrict his qi.
"You two! You dared to attack a disciple without the consultation from the other members! Shameless!" The lady said.
"You both have put our name into shame! Dragging our reputations down in the mud! How could you two be so utter fools!?' the lady said angrily.
The three elders watching this scene couldn't help but gloat over what happened. They all looked at Old Fourth and then said,
"Good thing you didn't charge in with your buddies huh?"
Zhou Weiqing heard what was happening. He knew that this is something that was rather scandalous. Thus, he ordered all of the disciples to disperse and that he will issue an announcement afterwards about when will be the next selection will be. The crowd were all reluctant to leave as things were getting a bit spicier. But seeing the ruthless expression of the Peak Master. They all left leaving none behind.
The lady glared at both sides and then after the crowd were gone, she released them from her seal.
She mercilessly smacked the two elders in the heads viciously and started to kick them repeatedly.
"Elder Sister Mercy!!" The two cried out with tears flowing down from their eyes. The two were powerless against their Elder Sister. Not only was she higher than them in status, she was also much powerful than them in terms of cultivation base.
Next she looked at Wang Tian. She noticed that a bit of Wang Tian's anger was abated so she felt more at ease. Indeed, Wang Tian's anger lowered down when he saw that the two were getting beaten up.
