Vice Mansion Master Ren, Elder Liu, I’d like to simultaneously challenge the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi!
Although Xu Jing’s voice was not loud, everyone present on the Nimble Chess Set heard his words.
The entire place fell silent immediately.
When the people present on the scene regained their senses, they looked at each other in shock. Some of them even stuck a finger into their ears to clear it, thinking they had heard wrongly.
Dear Lord!
What did they just hear?


Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, said he wanted to challenge the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time? Xu Jing’s words were a great shock to everyone present on the scene.
However, his words were undoubtedly a great humiliation to the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi. Both their expressions turned grave immediately. At this moment, no matter how good their temper was, they could no longer suppress it. Xu Jing had gone too far in insulting them!
Upon hearing Xu Jing’s words, even Duan Ling Tian was taken by surprise.
Xu Jing wants to challenge two Mastery Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivators at the same time?


Ridiculous!


How arrogant!


This Xu Jing actually wants to challenge the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time? Does he think they’re weak or something?


Hurmph! Looks like he has become quite confident after breaking through to the Mastery Refined Saint Stage… However, as a Mastery Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator, he actually said that he wants to challenge a Mastery Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator and Dao Cultivator at the same time. Isn’t he just seeking death?


Seeking death? The Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi won’t dare to kill him… Although they can run away, their sect can’t. As the saying goes, ‘The monk may run away, but the temple remains.’ Even if they run away, the Rising Sky Mansion won’t let the Brahma Temple and Pure Yang Shrine go.

The people on the scene discussed among themselves. They felt that Xu Jing had overestimated himself. To think he wanted to challenge both the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time!
Even Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang did not expect Xu Jing to be so arrogant.


Due to this reason, they were rendered speechless for a moment.

Young Mansion Master, what’re you trying to do? Whether it’s the Flowery Monk or Jing Xu Zi, both of them are powerful opponents. I know your confidence is greatly boosted after you’ve broken through to the Mastery Refined Saint Stage, but both of them are Mastery Refined Saint Stage powerhouses as well! You’ll not be a match for both of them at once!
Xu Cen said through Voice Transmission as a frown appeared on his face.
After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Xu Jing to reply as he looked at Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang with a forced smile on his face.
Vice Mansion Master Ren, Elder Liu, our Young Mansion Master is joking!

Joking?
The crowd looked at Xu Jing skeptically when they heard Xu Cen’s words.
This joke was not funny at all.
However, Xu Jing did not seem to understand Xu Cen’s intention. The moment Xu Cen’s words left his mouth, he immediately chimed in,
Grand Elder, I’m not joking!
His tone was filled with disdain.
Xu Cen’s face turned red when he heard this. He had put aside his pride to help Xu Jing, but that Xu Jing was not only ungrateful, but he even snubbed Xu Cen despite his good intention.
Xu Cen was so infuriated he only waved his sleeve, no longer planning to interfere in the matter.

Young Mansion Master Xu, you really want to challenge the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time?
Ren Zhong asked solemnly as he looked at Xu Jing.



Vice Mansion Master Ren, don’t tell me you think I’m joking?
Xu Jing frowned.

Young Mansion Master Xu, you must think twice… Whether it’s the Flowery Monk or Jing Xu Zi, both of them are at the Mastery Refined Saint Stage like you. You won’t gain any upper hand fighting against two of them at the same time!
Liu Hong Guang chimed in as well.

Thank you for your reminder, Elder Liu. However, I’ve already made up my mind,
Xu Jing replied indifferently.

By right, this matter doesn’t violate the Rising Sky Ranking Battle’s rules, but if you want to fight both of them at once, they must consent to it. If they’re unwilling, there’s nothing Elder Liu and I can do. We can’t possibly force them to fight with you. After all, this is undoubtedly a humiliation to them,
Ren Zhong told Xu Jing awkwardly.
He could understand the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi’s feelings. If he was in their position, he would be furious as well.
Someone they had defeated in the past wanted to take both of them on at the same time! This was a complete humiliation!
After Ren Zhong’s speech, everyone, including Duan Ling Tian, shifted their eyes to the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi.
At this moment, both the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi had an extremely grave expression on their faces. However, they knew they had to give an answer now.
They were about to reject this when Xu Jing beat them to it and spoke first,
Flowery Monk, Jing Xu Zi, I know both of you are proud people, but if you don’t accept my challenge today, I’ve no choice but to say everyone from the Brahma Temple and Pure Yang Shrine are trash!

Trash!


One must admit that Xu Jing’s words were indeed very provocative.
At the very least, the moment his words left his mouth, whether it was the people from the Brahma Temple or the Pure Yang Shrine, all of their expressions turned grave immediately.

Arrogant! That’s too arrogant!


Senior Brother Flower, since he’s so arrogant, you might as well join forces with Senior Brother Jing Xu Zi and kill him!


That’s right, Senior Brother Flower! He has stepped on our heads, so you don’t have to care about anything else! Just join forces with Senior Brother Jing Xu Zi and teach him an unforgettable lesson!


Flowery Monk, agree to his request!

Among the Brahma Temple’s people, apart from the Abbot and the high-ranking officials whose expressions were absolutely grave, all the disciples took turns to persuade the Flowery Monk. They wanted him to agree to Xu Jing’s challenge and join forces with Jing Xu Zi.
It was the same on the Pure Yang Shrine’s side as well.
Other than the high-ranking officials and the Shrine Master of Pure Yang Shrine who remained silent, the other disciples were also persuading Jing Xu Zi one after another.
Xu Jing’s words bewildered a lot of people at the scene because his words had provoked the two fifth-rate forces, the Brahma Temple and Pure Yang Shrine!


Naturally, it was not a big issue for someone of Xu Jing’s background to provoke these two forces!
Since Xu Jing had already said such words, if the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi still refused him, they would be admitting that the people from Brahma Temple and Pure Yang Shrine were trash. This was undoubtedly what Xu Jing wanted.

I agree!


I agree as well!

Under such circumstances, the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi had no choice but to accept the challenge. However, their expressions were gloomy when they agreed to it. Both pair of eyes that were looking at Xu Jing gleamed coldly.
Both of them had made up their minds to teach him an unforgettable lesson even if they could not kill him! They could still endure it if Xu Jing had only provoked them. However, they could not dismiss it so easily when he provoked their respective sects.
As a sect disciple, particularly those outstanding disciples who represented their sects, provoking their sects was akin to exhuming their ancestors’ graves.
The crowd was not surprised by the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi’s decision. Under such circumstances, although Xu Jing’s challenge was a humiliation, both of them had no choice but to agree to it. Otherwise, it would be the same as admitting the people in their sects were trash!

This Xu Jing has really gone crazy!


Does he really think he’s invincible after breaking through to the Mastery Refined Saint Stage? Challenging two people on his own. Moreover, these two people are at the Mastery Refined Saint Stage as well!


I want to see if he’ll still be this arrogant when he’s defeated by the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi!


At that time, I think he’d be so embarrassed he’d wished for the ground to swallow him up.


I’m really looking forward to seeing him being defeated by the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi. With both of them joining forces, I don’t think it’ll take them more than ten moves to defeat him!

When the crowd heard the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi had accepted Xu Jing’s challenge, they began to whisper among themselves again.

It’s unfortunate the force behind Xu Jing is the Rising Sky Mansion. Otherwise, the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi would definitely kill him!


That’s right! With the Rising Sky Mansion’s presence, even if the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi defeat him, they won’t kill him!


Hurmph! I think he must have taken this into consideration. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to issue a challenge to the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time.

Many people felt it was unfair. They thought Xu Jing would not have dared to make such a request if he did not have the Rising Sky Mansion backing him.

Could it be Xu Jing is actually confident he can defeat the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time?
Unlike the others, judging by the confidence and arrogance in Xu Jing’s eyes, Duan Ling Tian was confused. He did not have an answer to this.
After being reincarnated twice, his judgment was pretty accurate. Currently, Xu Jing was emanating the air of a victor.
‘If he’s really strong enough to defeat both the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time, then his strength must be at the peak of the Mastery Refined Saint Stage! If he really has that kind of strength, the best case scenario for me is to come to draw with him. It’s impossible for me to kill him now!’ Duan Ling Tian’s heart sank the moment he thought of this.
There was only one reason he came to the Rising Sky Ranking Battle in the Rising Sky Mansion’s district. It was to kill Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, so he could help Han Xue Nai dissolve her marriage. However, it seemed as though killing Xu Jing would not be a simple task.
‘I hope he’s just being arrogant and overestimating himself.’ Now that it had come to this, Duan Ling Tian could only hope for the best. However, he felt the chances of him getting what he hoped for was quite slim.
Due to this reason, his heart was shrouded by dark clouds, pressuring him.
Whoosh!
The sound of wind whistling reverberated in the air as Jing Xu Zi left the chess piece he was on and appeared on the one the Flowery Monk was standing on. They stood side by side with Xu Jing standing directly opposite them.
Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, had actually challenged the Flower Monk and Jing Xu Zi at the same time. Previously, any one of the two could easily crush him. However, he was persistent in challenging both of them at the same time today.
Not many people thought Xu Jing had a chance in this fight. Most of them felt the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi’s chances were higher since both of their strength was widely acknowledged by everyone.
