A Journey Against the World
Chapter 146

Shua Xie sneered faintly, then turned to look at the Elder who was now looking at him with a surprised look. With a leisurely walk Shua Xie approached the Elder.

"Did I win, Elder?" shua Xie asked in a slightly haughty tone.

The elder was stunned, he regained his senses and immediately replied, "Ah, that, yes, you, you won it." The nervous tone that the elder let out made Shua Xie even more sneery.

Shua Xie looked back at the Xionglue Pavilion giving a look of disdain to everyone there, naturally making the few occupants of the pavilion clatter furiously. An outer disciple had just underestimated them, there was no way they would just sit idly there watching Shua Xie's arrogance.

"Elder, I want to challenge again a disciple in the nineteenth rank," Shua Xie said confidently making the disciples watching back shocked. Not only that, even the Elder felt the same way.

"This .. is too soon. Usually students are only allowed to challenge one disciple in one day, if you want to challenge another student you can do it tomorrow," explained the Elder in a slightly nervous tone. He was only still shocked by the physical ability that Shua Xie possessed.

Shua Xie clucked softly, hearing the elder's words made his spirit fade. How could he possibly need ten days against ten disciples, which was true, if such was the case then the Land of the Eternal Realm he would never encounter. Shua Xie hated such a situation where he could not force the rules that existed with his status was still an outer disciple even though he had defeated Senlin a ranked inner disciple.

Right at that moment, Jiang Liang and the Great Elder came, shocking many disciples and instantly saluting the two Elders. Not expecting the Great Elder of the Kunlun sect master to come to the arena without notice from the other Elders.

"Chairman Fen, I allow this disciple to challenge a ranked inner disciple. If he still wanted to challenge leave it alone," said the Great Elder with a thin but warm smile, his hand gently stroking his white beard, a refined glance he aimed at the Elder named Fen, the manager of the fighting arena.

Fen was a little surprised, during his life he had never seen a Great Elder care about such a trivial thing, even the Great Elder very rarely appeared himself and only locked up in his residence on the grounds that he was increasing his cultivation, 'But today for the sake of the girl, the Great Elder willingly came here and gave the girl freedom to challenge the inner disciple. What was the girl's relationship with the Great Elder?' Fen glanced towards Shua Xie, scrutinizing more deeply what relationship Shua Xie had with the Great Elder.

In another siai Jiang Liang smiled to Shua Xie giving a certain meaning to the girl. Seeing that smile, Shua Xie understood something, this must have been Jiang Liang why the Great Elder was able to come here. But it was quite profitable for Shua Xie as well, so the challenge would not be delayed.

'Chairman Jiang, your kindness will not be forgotten.' Shua Xie smiled faintly, feeling a little touched by Jiang Liang's kindness towards him.

Shua Xie immediately turned his head towards Fen then spoke, "Chairman Fen, how is it? Will I be able to challenge a disciple within nineteen ranks?"

Fen smiled awkwardly and immediately agreed to Shua Xie's question, "Alright, you can fight him, but still need the approval of the other party." Although Shua Xie had obtained permission to challenge the inner disciple, but still Shua Xie could not play the opponent without the consent of the party he was challenging.

Shua Xie turned to stare at the Xionglue pavilion, seeing the occupants of the pavilion looking shocked as well as furious, an idea popped into his mind. Of course it was not a good idea, but it was certainly very effective in provoking the anger of the residents of the Xionglue pavilion.

"Don't you see! The Great Elder is here, if you do not accept my challenge then the reputation of the inner disciple is not as great as I heard!" Shua Xie shouted extremely loudly, not only shocking the occupants of the Xionglue pavilion and the disciples around the arena, but also the Great Elder, Jiang Liang as well as Fen himself.

Shua Xie's recklessness was worth giving four thumbs up, not only provoking the inner disciples but also humiliating the teacher who taught the inner disciples. Not accepting Shua Xie's challenge the other disciples would definitely agree with Shua Xie's words and assume the inner disciples were not as great as the news, not only humiliating the inner disciples but also their teachers.

Fen opened his mouth wide, greatly surprised that Shua Xie would be so desperate as to lure those inner disciples out of their nest. But that was not the crux of the matter, indirectly Shua Xie also offended the teacher who taught the inner disciple. Simultaneously, Fen's ears caught a giggling and spontaneous sound he immediately turned his head.

'Ah?! The Great Elder looked calm even though the girl had done the wrong action. Moreover, that Jiang was actually laughing! Did they not care about the fate of the girl?' Fen was very surprised to see the Great Elder still being able to take a quiet stand, while Jiang Liang chuckled. The attitude of the two of them made Fen immediately think, 'This girl, she has an unusual relationship with the Great Elder.' Fen's gaze returned to Shua Xie.

The state of the atmosphere of the Xionglue pavilion was truly gloomy after hearing the shouts of disdain from an outer disciple. Shua Xie had underestimated their status before the other disciples, not only that even in the presence of the Great Elder as well. How could they still sit quietly in their residence while an outer disciple who had just entered insulted their status. The status of a ranked inner disciple was extremely difficult to achieve, even maintaining it also killed great abilities, but an outer disciple easily underestimated them. If not to avenge those outer disciples, then this humiliation would never disappear even if they had walked out of the Kunlun sect once. The Cultivator World was extremely cruel, although strength was everything, but still gossip was more effective at torturing someone, especially the psychics.

"He has missed! I'll shut that cocky mouth with my strength!" The young man in black with blue-colored night hair clucked in annoyance, he was Kiseki the disciple in the nineteen rank that Shua Xie challenged.

"Yes, show him, as a stray cat he should not provoke the ire of a group of lions," said the young man beside Kiseki who was known as a disciple in rank twelve, named Biming.

Kiseki gave a rough snort before he finally jumped down and immediately approached the fighting arena. Shouldering a blaze of anger, Kiseki leaped up onto the arena as he stared at Shua Xie sharply.

"Outside disciple, I accept your challenge!" kiseki said firmly as he pulled his sword out of the sheath. Without giving any cue Kiseki directly attacked Shua Xie with full force. Anger had filled his mind so much that he did not care whether the Great Elder would be angry with his actions or not, now that he thought of avenging the humiliation that Shua Xie had thrown out.

"Night-Freedom Sword Technique!"

Kiseki's thin field unleashed a powerful force that defended the wind swiftly, the horizontal slash swiftly darting towards the girl in front of him.

Shua Xie naturally knew, the attack was a little dangerous if he did not immediately avoid it, moreover he could not use his Qi energy after his agreement with the Great Elder. Shua Xie immediately jumped to the left, dodging the slash attack quickly. A slight delay in the attack could injure him even if it was only a minor injury.

The attack landed violently on the arena stage, causing the concrete arena to suffer a bit of destruction, but a few seconds later the arena again improved and did not leave a slight scratch. Shua Xie was surprised to see that, not expecting this concrete arena to have a magic spell capable of repairing damage by itself. If Shua Xie's guess was correct, there should be a Cultivator magician in the Kunlun sect.

Putting aside his thoughts first, Kiseki again launched an attack will not let Shua Xie get a gap to attack back. Shua Xie had a little trouble, Kiseki did not let him retaliate in the slightest attack other than dodging, but even though Shua Xie was desperate, Kiseki's actions also benefited him.

'We'll see to what extent the power limit is.' Now the idea of stalling and making Kiseki exhausted is the right idea. Kiseki seemed to be too carried away by the anger due to Shua Xie's words, so if the young man had exhausted himself and run out of steam, Shua Xie would have retaliated.

Kiseki grew furious, hearing Shua Xie insult the inner disciple again as if burning his ears. As Shua Xie spoke, Kiseki strengthened his attack, "Damn it! I'll make you regret insulting the inner disciple!" Kiseki's attacks became blind, no matter where Shua Xie landed his feet he instantly blasted his attacks, but every time he attacked every single one of them also Shua Xie dodged.

Five minutes passed ...

"The inner disciple is indeed weak!" screeched Shua Xie while dodging Kiseki's attack in a relaxed and calm manner.

"Shut your mouth!" pekik Kiseki hard.

Ten minutes passed ....

"Hehehe .. Even hurting me can't. The students in are very disappointing!" shua Xie said with a soft tone as his hand closed his mouth.

"Shut up! You're the weak one!" Kiseki is getting furious.

Two sweat minutes later ....

Shua Xie continued to jump to any side of each attack continuously darting towards him, Kiseki still did not stop attacking him continuously, "Hoam .. is indeed weak," Shua Xie said as he yawned, too bored continue to avoid and avoid but Kiseki has not given up.

Although Kiseki had not given up, but he had started to run out of energy, it had been twenty minutes that he attacked blindly without stopping of course draining a lot of his energy. Even so he still did not give up, "Huh! Huh! Huh! You, you .. shut the fuck up!" reply Kiseki with irregular breath.

Half an hour later ....

"Aah!" Kiseki fell lying down, his body was exhausted, even to raise his head he was not able to. He had spent all his strength to attack Shua Xie, but even until now had given the girl a slight scratch, she was unable to.

Shua Xie smiled widely, as he walked up to the young man who had fallen lying exhausted, "Senior, even until now you have not been able to defeat me, it turns out that the inner disciple is indeed disappointing."

"You!-" Kiseki intended to reply to Shua Xie's words but before he finished, Shua Xie immediately kicked him out of the arena. Shua Xie deliberately did not kick it strongly, because if using the power of Kiseki could die instantly. The young man had run out of energy, so according to Shua Xie it was enough to teach the young man.

Seeing Kiseki being kicked out of the arena, the atmosphere was still but half a minute later the outer disciples shouted loudly cheering Shua Xie. Shua Xie had defeated Kiseki disciple in rank nineteen, a pride for outer disciples as well even though they were not yet acquainted with Shua Xie.

"Well! It's great! It's great! Miss Shua you're great!"

"As outer disciples we are proud to have someone like you! You're great Miss Shua!"

"Yey! The inner disciple is indeed weak! Miss Shua is great!"

"Huuu!.. The disciple in the weak base!"

The inner disciples certainly did not remain silent at the words of the outer disciples, they immediately replied to the outer disciples loudly. If only it was allowed to fight in the Kunlun sect, surely the two camps would fight each other to maintain the reputation of their strongholds.

"What are you talking about! The disciple inside is not weak!"

"Right, as outer disciples you guys are so ignorant of manners!"

"The outer disciple does not know himself! Just wait for our Senior to finish you off!"

"Murids in the ranking will certainly not be silent! He must have avenged this humiliation!"

Hearing the cheers from the outer disciples and inner disciples humbly insulted each other, making Shua Xie singe an awkward smile. Although it was indeed his intention to demean the ranked inner disciples in order for them to accept his challenge, but this was not what Shua Xie had expected. The outer disciple became underestimating the inner disciple because Shua Xie had defeated the ranked inner disciple, if like this wouldn't there be a conflict between the inner disciple and the outer disciple?

'Hehehe .. It looks like my actions will trigger a major conflict. This Great Elder is your fault, don't associate with me.' Shua Xie smiled awkwardly at the Great Elder, where the figure of the Elder was emitting a gloomy dark aura all over his body, perhaps feeling a little guilty as this conflict was also happening because of him.

A/N: Huh! What conflict is this! 😂
