Mythical Cultivation

There is no time in cultivation, and three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

"Brother Ming, something happened, come out quickly, come out quickly." Wu Ming only heard a series of hurried knocks on the door. He opened the door and saw that it was Ishikawa knocking on his door anxiously. When he saw him come out, he hurriedly pulled him outside.

Wu Ming asked, "What happened? Don't panic, tell me slowly."

Ishikawa pulled him along and said, "Wang Xiaohu had an argument with Xiang Pengfei, and was beaten by Xiang Pengfei and his men until he vomited blood. Li Fei then started fighting with him. I came here to ask for your help. It's right here in the square."

Xiang Pengfei himself was a gifted man, considered superior. He and Huang Hao, one of the three most gifted members of his group, were from the same village, Mozhu Village. He had always served as Huang Hao's vanguard, and with Huang Hao at his helm, he had recruited a group of people, making him a well-known figure within the Newcomers' Academy. After Huang Hao became an outer disciple last year, Xiang Pengfei became the leader of his group. After several unsuccessful attempts to recruit Wu Ming and the other three, he developed a conflict with them, often showing a hostile attitude. This time, Wang Xiaohu encountered Xiang Pengfei and his group, and a quarrel ensued, leading to a fight.

As they were talking, they arrived at the square and saw a group of people forming a circle. Wu Ming and the other man squeezed in and saw Wang Xiaohu lying on the ground with blood still flowing from the corners of his mouth. There were two people helping him apply medicine. These two people were the ones who joined Wu Ming's small team because they couldn't stand Xiang Pengfei and his group.

When they saw Wu Ming coming, they shouted, "Brother Wu, you're finally here. Xiaohu was injured, and Brother Fei doesn't look like he's Xiang Pengfei's opponent."

Wang Xiaohu even shouted, "Brother Ming, avenge me! Xiang Pengfei was so cruel! It hurts so much."

Wuming glanced at Wang Xiaohu and said, "I'll tell you later." Wang Xiaohu shrank his head. Although he had a good relationship with Li Fei, he was most afraid of Wu Ming. This fight was caused by him. He wondered how Wu Ming would teach him a lesson afterwards.

Wu Ming looked towards the field and saw Li Fei being beaten back by Xiang Pengfei. Xiang Pengfei's fireball technique had reached a high level, and he was chasing Li Fei into a state of panic. Seeing this, Wu Ming, fearing that Li Fei would get hurt, quickly shouted, "We surrender."

Xiang Pengfei had been a bit worried when he saw Wu Ming approach, but when he heard him admit defeat, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. This was also because he had suffered several losses at Wu Ming's hands before. Hearing Wu Ming's surrender was a relief, so he stopped attacking. Li Fei was also relieved when he saw Xiang Pengfei stop attacking. Although he didn't want to admit it, he was indeed no match for Xiang Pengfei, and bowing his head was a helpless act.

Wu Ming saw Li Fei walking off the court and asked, "Are you not injured?"

"No, it's just that the consumption is a bit too much. My true energy is almost exhausted. But if I continue fighting, I'm afraid I will get hurt. Fortunately, you are here." Li Fei said.

"Xiang Pengfei, you have to give me an explanation for what happened today. You have to hand over the people who injured Wang Xiaohu." Wu Ming said to Xiang Pengfei. After all, they were from the same village and had a good relationship. Justice must be sought.

"Confess? He has a foul mouth and can learn a lesson by spitting some blood. It's impossible for him to surrender." Although he had suffered several losses at the hands of Wu Ming before, his strength has increased significantly recently, and his fireball technique has become more handy. He claims that he is not afraid of Wu Ming. Besides, if Wu Ming says to surrender, where will his face be?

"Since you won't listen even after I've discussed it with you, let's see who's the winner. I'll let you rest for a while." Wu Mingdao said.

"Brother Wu, why let him rest? Take advantage of his illness to kill him." Wang Xiaohu shouted from the side. Xiang Pengfei was secretly happy to hear Wu Ming's words, but after hearing Wang Xiaohu's words, his face suddenly turned angry. He thought: I will beat this kid up next time I see him. He has a foul mouth.

"Xiao Hu, shut up. I'll settle the score with you when we get back. We're all from the same sect, how can there be such a deep hatred?"

"Wu Ming, are you sure? Xiang Pengfei's strength should be the same as mine, not far from the peak of the third level of Qi Refining, but he is very skilled in fireball technique. I am far worse than him." Li Fei whispered to Wu Ming.

"Don't worry, I'm not a pushover either. Although his skills have improved a lot, that's probably his strength," Wu Ming said confidently. Li Fei's face suddenly became complicated when he heard his words. Before joining the sect, their strengths were similar, but after only four years, the gap had already become apparent. He remembered Wu Ming's usual advice that one's own strength was the most important thing, and that other things could be put aside. However, he didn't take it to heart and instead formed a small team. He didn't expect Wu Ming to have left him behind. He had to work harder in the future.

An incense stick of time passed before Wu Ming and Xiang Pengfei entered the arena. Xiang Pengfei first formed a hand seal with his left hand to cast an earth shield on himself, then stared at Wu Ming warily while continuing to form a hand seal to summon a fist-sized fireball that flew towards Wu Ming.

Wu Ming had already cast Wind Walk on himself while Xiang Pengfei was casting Earth Shield. When the Fireball appeared, he had already accelerated and was face-to-face with Xiang Pengfei. He struck the Earth Shield with a palm. There was only a slight sound, and Xiang Pengfei, who was inside the Earth Shield, heard a muffled thud. He was relieved that the shield was fine. However, a tiny crack had appeared on the Earth Shield where he hadn't noticed.

Xiang Pengfei watched Wu Ming dash in front of him in an instant and slap the earth shield. Although he was fine, he was still a little panicked. He retreated while directing the fireball technique to rush towards Wu Ming. After Wu Ming struck the palm, he accelerated again and appeared to Xiang Pengfei's right side, and hit it again. There was only a slight sound. The earth shield shook and cracked. It was estimated that it would shatter before it could withstand another palm strike. Could it be a small palm thunder? Otherwise, how could it be so powerful? Xiang Pengfei looked at Wu Ming with horror, only to see Wu Ming's face was calm.

Seeing the fireball trailing behind Wu Ming, nearly hitting his earthen shield, Xiang Pengfei was thankfully more proficient in fireball magic than before. Otherwise, his own fireball would have shattered his earthen shield and spread out, making him laugh out loud. Furthermore, even at the third level of Qi training, he didn't have much true essence left, and nearly half of it was gone. Before the fireball even touched Wu Ming, his shield was in jeopardy. With a wave of his hand, the fireball dissipated, and with his other hand, he formed a seal to cast a wind-walking spell, creating distance and preserving himself before attempting an attack.

The moment Xiang Pengfei activated his Wind Walk technique, Wu Ming had already returned to his position and struck the earthen shield with one palm strike. With a soft click, the shield shattered, and he continued striking at Xiang Pengfei. Before Xiang Pengfei could pull away, he saw a palm strike towards him, and he quickly met it with his other hand.

A mouthful of blood spurted out of Xiang Pengfei's mouth. Wu Ming dodged, creating distance, and stopped, no longer attacking. The outcome was decided.

The onlookers saw that it took only a few dozen breaths for the two men to appear on the stage, from Xiang Pengfei adding a shield to casting a fireball, to the earth shield being in danger, and then to Xiang Pengfei vomiting blood. It was too fast.

Xiang Pengfei's group quickly supported Xiang Pengfei and asked about his injuries.

"Brother Ming is so powerful, why don't you hit him a few more times?" Wang Xiaohu shouted.

"Talk less," Ishikawa said, pulling him aside.

Xiang Pengfei pushed aside the person who was supporting him, walked up to Wu Ming and the others and said, "I lost. Thank you for showing mercy. I will take care of whatever you want to say."

"No need for that. Your men injured Xiaohu, and I injured you. So we owe each other nothing. Next time, tell your men to be gentler. We entered the sect together, and we have a long life ahead of us. There's no deep hatred between us," said Wu Ming.

"I'll remember your favor and will repay you when I have the chance." Xiang Pengfei said and left with his men.

"Li Fei, you take them back first. I have something else to do and will be back later." After saying that, Wu Ming walked towards the school.
