Upon seeing Qin Wu, Taixuzi's lips curled into a faint smile; the person he wanted had finally arrived.

From the very beginning, Taixuzi's target was Qin Wu, after all, Qin Wu had made him lose face in Kunlun Ruins and even in front of many fellow practitioners.

So when he saw Qin Wu come out, Taixuzi was already smiling.

The person standing on the stage also noticed Qin Wu's presence. He didn't know Qin Wu, but he felt a faint sense of crisis.

He then dismissed these thoughts from his mind. After all, Qin Wu in front of him clearly did not appear to have entered the initial stage of True Qi. The difference in strength between those below the True Qi level and those at the initial stage of True Qi was enormous. He did not believe that someone like Qin Wu, who had not even reached the True Qi level, could fight him.

Then Qin Wu walked onto the stage and looked at the martial artist in the early stage of True Qi in front of him with a calm expression.

The martial artist at the initial stage of True Qi said, "Fellow Daoist, judging from your realm, you probably haven't even reached the initial stage of True Qi yet. What's the point of you going up on stage with your strength?"

In my opinion, you should step down as soon as possible.

His tone was clearly sarcastic.

He already understood Taixuzi's attitude from the subtle hint in Taixuzi's eyes. Since this person was the one Taixuzi wanted to target, he naturally had to satisfy Taixuzi's wishes.

Therefore, he mocked Qin Wu mercilessly. If Qin Wu didn't even dare to make a move after taking the stage, he would have lost all face. There was no better way to mock him than this.

Then he heard Qin Wu speak:

"Realm level is never the only standard of combat strength. I see that although you have entered the initial stage of True Qi, you can only rely on your realm to suppress others. Your true strength is probably not as good as mine."

"If you step down now, you can at least save face. Otherwise, losing to me with only the initial stage of True Qi cultivation would be a huge disgrace for your Kunlun Ruins."

As he spoke, Qin Wu didn't even look at him, but instead gazed at Taixuzi behind him. Their eyes met; Taixuzi's expression was icy, while Qin Wu's eyes held a hint of mockery.

This mocking look only fueled Taixuzi's rage. How dare this mere waste, who hadn't even reached the True Qi Realm, look at him with such disdain? Taixuzi roared, "..."

"Why waste words with him? Let's take action now and show him the difference in skill."

Upon hearing these words, the disciple from Kunlun Ruins dared not hesitate any longer. He immediately drew his sword and pointed it at Qin Wu. Qin Wu, however, showed no intention of attacking. Instead, he extended a finger and beckoned.

Upon seeing this action, the disciple at the initial stage of True Qi immediately twisted his expression. This action was undoubtedly an extremely violent provocation, or even an act of disregarding him.

Thinking of this, he didn't hesitate at all and charged straight at Qin Wu.

The people of Tianwu Mountain were even more worried as they watched the situation unfold, especially Cang Xuanwu, whose face was pale and he could no longer sit still.

When Cang Xuanwu saw Qin Wu go on stage, he had a premonition that he might fail, but he still believed that Qin Wu was not a reckless person. Perhaps Qin Wu just wanted to see what the strength of the initial stage of True Qi was really like.

After all, Qin Wu fought him back then without opening his acupoints.

Although Qin Wu was indeed no match for him in that battle, he was still able to see Qin Wu's potential.

Even a strong person at the initial stage of True Qi could be tricked when facing the Dragon Elephant World-Suppressing Fist. Therefore, although Cang Xuanwu was worried, he did not stop Qin Wu from going on stage.

Even if they can't win, as long as they can make the opponent suffer a small loss with that one move, it will be a great honor for Tianwu Mountain.

But now the situation is completely different. Qin Wu's provocation is absolutely unacceptable to the disciples of the True Qi Realm in Kunlun Ruins. At this moment, it may even develop to the point of fighting to the death.

Cang Xuanwu's face immediately turned extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth and said, "How dare Qin Wu provoke a mere True Qi beginner like this?"

Now that things have developed to this point, it won't be easy to get the other side to hold back.

Zhou Yan and the others also looked worried. They were unaware of Qin Wu's current strength. Only Zhao Longhu, who had just stepped down and was still extremely weak, grinned after hearing Cang Xuanwu's words and then said:

"Elder Cang, you have underestimated Qin Wu."

He continued:

"Junior Brother Qin's strength is probably greater than Elder Cang imagine. When we first came down the mountain, he fought alongside me against one of the three fierce men of Qianzhou and helped me defeat him. Later, he had some more opportunities."

Upon hearing these words, Cang Xuanwu looked at Zhao Longhu with some surprise:

"You didn't even have the power to fight back against him?"

His voice was filled with shock.

It's important to understand that although Zhao Longhu was indeed defeated just now, the strength he displayed was by no means weak. He first defeated one person, and then fought against an even stronger opponent. Although he was seriously injured, he was still injured by someone at the initial stage of True Qi.

Given the difference in their cultivation levels, this alone was enough to prove that Zhao Longhu's strength was definitely not weak. Yet, even so, Zhao Longhu actually said that he couldn't withstand more than a few moves from Qin Wu.

If that's the case, doesn't it mean that Qin Wu's strength might not be much different from that of a disciple at the initial stage of True Qi?

For a moment, Cang Xuanwu's expression also showed a hint of anticipation.

If Qin Wu possessed the strength to directly confront a martial artist at the initial stage of True Qi, then with the Dragon Elephant World-Suppressing Fist, he might actually be able to make that disciple at the initial stage of True Qi suffer a silent loss.

Thinking of this, he looked at Taixuzi across from him, gritting his teeth as if he wanted to devour Qin Wu alive.

Then a bright smile appeared on his face, but to Taixuzi, this smile only made his expression more distorted.

But regardless of what the spectators thought, the two sides had already started fighting on the arena, and the strength of the expert at the initial stage of True Qi was indeed formidable.

In almost an instant, he had already rushed in front of Qin Wu.

Just as the opponent's sword thrust forward, Qin Wu, though slower than the opponent, struck first, drawing his Tiger King Blade abruptly. A resounding clang rang out as the blade clashed.

However, this time was different from before. When Zhao Longhu faced that disciple at the initial stage of True Qi, he was at a disadvantage and was even forced to retreat.

However, this time, Qin Wu not only did not retreat when facing the disciple at the initial stage of True Qi, but even blocked him steadily, causing the disciple at the initial stage of True Qi to take a few steps back.

Upon witnessing this scene, the entire arena fell silent.

"How is that possible?"

The disciple at the initial stage of True Qi looked at Qin Wu in disbelief, then looked at his trembling hands. In the clash of power just now, he had actually been defeated.

He was a powerful expert at the initial stage of True Qi, yet he was defeated by a disciple who had not even reached the initial stage of True Qi. If this got out, how could he ever hold his head high among the many disciples of Kunlun Ruins?

In an instant, his expression turned extremely angry and annoyed.

"Good lad, your strength is not weak. I didn't expect you to be born with superhuman strength. But the difference is definitely not something your strength can compare to."

The crowd in the stands was far more shocked than the two men themselves, especially the disciples from the surrounding sects, who looked at Qin Wu as if he were a monster.

Kunlun Ruins is no weak sect; their True Qi beginner level cultivators are certainly not weak either. Yet, even so, Qin Wu was able to fight his opponent to a draw, and even gain the upper hand in terms of strength, without reaching the True Qi beginner level. If Qin Wu were allowed to grow stronger, Tianwu Mountain might very well be able to accumulate new resources.

Suddenly, many people's attitudes toward Tianwu Mountain changed.

At this moment, the disciple of the True Qi Initial Realm from Kunlun Ruins charged towards Qin Wu once again, but this time he did not rely on sheer strength to clash with Qin Wu head-on.

Although he was already burning with rage, he knew that anger alone was meaningless. His true energy surged and poured forth from the sword light, determined to defeat Qin Wu by overwhelming him with his superior cultivation level.

Even so, once the two started fighting, he realized that his pride and joy in his strength were actually quite ineffective against Qin Wu. Qin Wu steadily blocked every single one of his moves, even seeming to have it all under his control.

Indeed, the person before him was quite strong, but Qin Wu wasn't worried at all. His own strength was now no less than this person's, and perhaps even surpassed it.

The reason he didn't defeat his opponent directly was simply because he wanted to see how strong the Kunlun Ruins disciples were and to experience the unique aspects of the Kunlun Ruins' techniques.

Each sect has its own focus, and Kunlun Ruins and Tianwu Mountain are no exception. He already had a general understanding of the situation at Tianwu Mountain.

Although Tianwu Mountain has many martial arts techniques, they are mainly based on direct methods.

Although Kunlun Ruins claims to uphold the Dao, Qin Wu could tell that most of the cultivation methods there followed bizarre paths. It was hard to say who was stronger or weaker, but at this moment, Qin Wu was even more grateful that he had come to Tianwu Mountain.

While unorthodox methods are indeed a viable path, his greatest advantage lies in absolute power. Under such circumstances, there is no need to resort to such unorthodox methods; the powerful and domineering path of kingship is the most suitable for him.

Meanwhile, the Kunlun Ruins disciple at the initial stage of True Qi cultivation looked increasingly grim. He felt as if all his attacks had been neutralized by his opponent, as if he were facing an abyss.

He seemed poised to defeat his opponent at any moment, but in reality, he felt that all his attacks were meaningless.

However, those around them couldn't see the situation clearly. As time went on, many people felt that the disciples of Kunlun Ruins had gained the upper hand, even Taixuzi himself.

At first, Taixuzi's expression turned grim when he saw that Qin Wu's strength surpassed that of their True Qi beginner disciples. However, now that he saw that the disciples of Kunlun Ruins had gained the upper hand, a slight smile finally appeared on his lips.

However, just as he was feeling pleased, Qin Wu suddenly changed his tactics. He had already figured out the general situation and there was no need to drag it out any longer.

The opponent has already used all his techniques; dragging it out any longer will only result in another round, which is meaningless to Qin Wu.

Thinking of this, Qin Wu no longer held back. The tiger spirit suddenly appeared on the Tiger King Blade in his hand. With just one strike, he knocked the sword of his opponent away. When the second strike came down, it was already at the opponent's neck.

A bead of cold sweat dripped from the neck of the disciple at the initial stage of True Qi in Kunlun Ruins. Looking at the blade so close to him, a hint of fear finally appeared in his eyes:

"I lost."

The moment those three words were uttered, the entire arena erupted in uproar, and everyone stared in shock at the arena.

Especially Taixuzi, who suddenly stood up, his eyes glaring at Qin Wu as if he wanted to devour him: "Trash!"

Tai Xuzi shouted angrily.

He could accept the failure of the disciples of Kunlun Ruins, but he absolutely would not allow a disciple of Kunlun Ruins at the initial stage of True Qi to be defeated by a disciple of Tianwu Mountain who had not yet entered the True Qi realm.

Moreover, that disciple had only joined Tianwu Mountain a few months ago, and had even caused him to lose face greatly.

At this moment, Qin Wu looked at Taixuzi and then spoke:

"I wonder if any fellow practitioners from Kunlun Ruins would like to come up and learn from you."

Qin Wu remained calm.

However, the disciples of Kunlun Ruins all looked hesitant.

Qin Wu's actions in defeating his opponent just now felt rather strange to them.

At first, the fight seemed to be going smoothly, but suddenly, the situation took a dramatic turn, as if Qin Wu possessed absolute power to defeat his opponent.

As a disciple at the initial stage of True Qi cultivation, the one who went up wasn't the strongest among them, but the difference wasn't too great. After all, they had only been there for three years; how could there be such a large gap between them?

Under such circumstances, the disciples who went up were defeated, which was a huge blow to them.

But at that moment, Taixuzi's gaze, like that of a starving tiger, turned to the disciples at the initial stage of True Qi behind him:

"Who will defeat him for me?"

Taixuzi spoke coldly.

He could not accept such an insult under any circumstances, so Qin Wu had to lose today, and lose miserably.

Otherwise, not only him, but the entire Kunlun Ruins would be trampled underfoot by Qin Wu.

Seeing everyone's shifty gazes, Taixuzi was furious: "Yang Xu, you go!"

He shouted angrily and called out names directly.

Yang Xu was the strongest among these disciples. Since no one else was willing to step forward, it was natural to send out the strongest.

Then, he stared intently at Yang Xu and continued:

"You must win this battle, you cannot afford to lose. If you cannot defeat him, then you need not come back."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xu trembled, then his face hardened: "Yes, Elder!"

As a disciple of Kunlun Ruins, since Taixuzi ordered him to take action, he naturally had no other choice.

Even at any cost, he must win this victory for Kunlunxu.
