Chapter 2227 - 2232: I, Liu, Want to Give It a Try

Chapter 2227: Chapter 2232: I, Liu, Want to Give It a Try

Liang Ying was extremely confident in himself.

He believed he was the number one among the Golden Pill Late Stage!

If he couldn’t even last ten breaths against a Nascent Soul Early Stage expert...

then he really didn’t deserve the Golden Pill Late Stage Realm.

"If Daoist Fellow Liang is the first to take the test, then won’t we have no chance at all?"

"Exactly! Daoist Fellow Liang’s talent and strength, I’ve seen them with my own eyes. As long as he’s tested, we won’t even have a sliver of a chance to compete."

"Daoist Fellow Liang, how about letting us take the test first?"

"Yes, yes! Let us take the test first!"

A few cultivators were unwilling to accept this.

They also wanted to give it a try.

After all, Liang Ying would definitely be able to last ten breaths in Fu Wu’s hands.

After that, the fortune of advancing to Nascent Soul would have nothing to do with them.

So quite a few people wanted to fight for it before Liang Ying.

If by any chance they were lucky enough to pass the test...

they might also be able to obtain this fortune.

All of this was taken in by Xia Liu.

He didn’t say a word.

In Heavenly Spirit Sect, Fu Wu had honed his speed and Divine Skills to the point of perfection.

But when he encountered a true powerhouse...

he could only look up in awe.

Only in the eyes of Golden Pill Cultivators would he be mythologized like this.

As for Liang Ying, he was truly a joke.

He hadn’t even fully stabilized his Golden Pill Late Stage Realm.

To last ten breaths in Fu Wu’s hands, he was likely planning to rely on speed and certain techniques.

To meet him head‑on for ten breaths—other than Xia Liu, no Golden Pill Cultivator present could do that.

"Don’t fight over it. In terms of talent, I should rank in the top five among Heavenly Spirit Sect’s Golden Pill Cultivators. In terms of strength, that’s beyond doubt. So it’s useless for you to compete with me."

Of the four Golden Pill Late Stage cultivators stronger than him before, two had already advanced to Nascent Soul.

Two had failed.

This made Liang Ying see hope.

They were gone, they had already failed.

His chance had come!

Hearing Liang Ying speak like this, no one dared to mock or question him.

Because that was the truth.

They just wanted to fight for a bit.

After all, they had been invited here by Xia Wei.

"Elders, don’t be anxious. The test is for everyone as a whole; each person will have a chance. So wait a bit. Once Elder Liang Ying finishes, it will be your turn."

Xia Wei explained.

"Alright!"

"Tsk tsk! That’s actually quite good!"

"I support this!"

...

Xia Wei’s words were accepted by everyone.

"Haha! In that case, Sect Master, please announce the start!"

Liang Ying said confidently.

He could hardly wait to cross hands with Fu Wu anymore.

"Elder Liang Ying, please step onto the Wild Goose Southern Platform!"

The Wild Goose Southern Platform!

It was an arena whose top had been sliced flat!

It had originally been a massive peak.

Standing atop Wild Goose Southern Peak, one could see the full scale of the Wild Goose Southern Platform.

Everyone who saw it couldn’t help but feel shocked.

Staring at the gigantic War Platform ahead...

Liang Ying leapt forward, using the wind currents to glide down onto the Wild Goose Southern Platform.

After that, Fu Wu flew over, treading the air.

Liang Ying had been on the path of Cultivation for two hundred years now.

If he still couldn’t break through, then this lifetime would probably be it for him.

So today, no matter what, he had to hold on for ten breaths!

Fu Wu stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his Proud Bone exuding from head to toe, giving him a kind of immortal-like bearing.

"Hall Master Fu Wu, Elder Liang Ying, you may begin."

Buzz!!!

With the word "begin," the Nascent Soul Early Stage pressure on Fu Wu’s body surged out like a swarm.

In an instant, Liang Ying felt his body sink.

The Spiritual Power in his body wouldn’t circulate smoothly at all!

"So this is the pressure of a Nascent Soul Expert? So strong!"

"Terrifying! If I were standing where Daoist Fellow Liang is, I probably wouldn’t even be able to stand upright!"

"It’s really too strong. Don’t say standing upright—just not collapsing to the ground is already incredible!"

"Daoist Fellow Liang not only stands straight, his expression hasn’t changed much either. His strength is really impressive!"

"Of course! The few most outstanding ones have already been selected to compete for Nascent Soul Formation. Now only Daoist Fellow Liang is the most outstanding among those left; he’s definitely not ordinary."

"Sigh, looks like this fortune doesn’t belong to me..."

Many people couldn’t help but sigh.

Having witnessed Fu Wu’s pressure...

they no longer had any confidence in themselves.

They were on the verge of despair.

While everyone was sighing, Fu Wu moved.

With his first move, he used a technique aimed to control and decide the battle in one blow.

He wanted to make Liang Ying fail on the spot with a single strike!

Liang Ying naturally wasn’t at a loss.

He gritted his teeth, activated his movement technique, and quickly left the spot where he was standing.

He dodged Fu Wu’s fierce move.

Then he cast a Spirit Art, intending to pin Fu Wu down.

Unfortunately, Fu Wu merely flicked his sleeve and shattered it outright.

...

The battle between the two could be said to have reached a white‑hot stage.

Because Xia Wei had given instructions beforehand...

Fu Wu was not truly forcing Liang Ying to his limits.

He had a very high chance of achieving the Nascent Soul Realm.

If Fu Wu went all out...

it was entirely possible for him to defeat Liang Ying in a single instant.

When the Nascent Soul Realm faces Golden Pill Cultivators, it’s not something that speed and strength alone can make up for.

"Alright, that’s enough."

After a round of chase and evasion, Xia Wei rang the bell to end the match.

When Fu Wu withdrew his hand, Liang Ying entered a state of unprecedented relief.

"Elder Liang’s cultivation is extraordinary, and his talent is remarkable. He remained standing for a full fifteen breaths without defeat. The test result is: extremely outstanding!"

Xia Wei announced the result.

Hearing this, Liang Ying couldn’t hold it in anymore and squatted directly onto the ground.

Locked in!

This time he was really locked in!

"Congratulations, Elder Liang!"

"Tsk tsk! To last fifteen breaths in Hall Master Fu’s hands without defeat, that’s simply terrifying!"

"With such strength, Elder Liang truly is extraordinary!"

...

Everyone began hotly discussing Liang Ying’s success.

At the same time, they had already lost all confidence in taking the test themselves.

Even if they really went up onto the Wild Goose Southern Platform, the final outcome would definitely be defeat.

And they might even be shaken into internal injuries by a Nascent Soul cultivator’s pressure.

Something that had no benefit at all and could even severely damage their foundation...

any sane person wouldn’t continue.

In their hearts, as long as one person passed the test, the result was already decided.

"Which Elder wishes to step onto the platform next to receive the test?"

Xia Wei looked at the crowd and asked.

"Sect Master, don’t joke with us. Since Elder Liang has already passed the test with an ’outstanding’ rating, how can we possibly compare to him?"

"Sigh, even if I went up for the test, I have no confidence at all in facing Hall Master Fu."

"Indeed, Hall Master Fu’s pressure isn’t something an ordinary Golden Pill cultivator can withstand."

"If you ask me, just take Elder Liang away directly. I hope that in a few days we’ll see a new Nascent Soul Expert appear."

"Agreed!"

...

No one wanted to waste any more time.

At this moment, what they should do was let Liang Ying quickly obtain the fortune and advance to Nascent Soul.

"Ahem, if no one is willing to step onto the platform for the test, I, Liu, would like to give it a try."

Just then, a somewhat out‑of‑place voice rang out.

"Hm?"

Everyone turned toward the source of the voice.

In the end, they found Xia Liu, who had a relatively youthful face.

"Haha! This Daoist Fellow is quite unfamiliar."

"He does look unfamiliar, and he doesn’t seem very old."

"Not very old means his foundation isn’t deep. At such an age, he should cherish his cultivation. Don’t ruin your future over a momentary contest of pride by harming your foundation..."
