Chapter 3084 - Your Clan Shall be Exterminated to the Ninth Degree
Chapter 3084 - Your Clan Shall be Exterminated to the Ninth Degree
Huang Daosheng didn't expect that a hundred-year-old tainted beastmaster would become the biggest stain on his reputation as a prospective eminent. His golden eyes fixed on Tianming. He didn't let the crowd chase after him again because such brainless pursuit would only give him another chance to mock them.
"You're right. Apart from Greenhaze Mundus, there’s only two ways. Either a cosmic artifact or lock him in a place he can't escape from! We can't accomplish either of these today, so... let's withdraw for now!" Huang Daosheng remained rational.
Rationality, however, didn't mean he didn't have a raging fury burning inside him. But his decision was still unacceptable to the more than five hundred brothers.
Upon hearing his words, the two women with leopard patterns couldn't stand it anymore. "No, we can't just leave like this today. From now on, as long as he's alive, we won't be able to hold our heads up."
"Big Brother Sheng, if we don't kill him today, many people in Myriadpath Valley will mock you...."
"And it’ll also bring ridicule to our entire House Huang!"
Huang Daosheng grit his teeth. At his age, there was no way he couldn't possibly not care about his reputation. But he still had some rationality in him, so he sternly said, "Shut up!"
"Yes...." The two women were so angry that tears streamed from their red eyes.
"Don't worry, I'll find a way to make him die in the most miserable way possible," Huang Daosheng grimly said. At first, he had thought that killing someone who challenged the authority of the clan would be the end of it. But now, not even killing him would be enough to vent his anger! He wanted to torture him before the kill!
Just as Huang Daosheng made up his mind to retreat with his men and swallow today's humiliation, Tianming’s expression cooled down. He stood in the way of the more than five hundred people, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Huang Daosheng, stop."
"You!" The crowd was on the verge of spitting blood.
This less than a hundred-year-old black ring disciple was at the bottom of Myriadpath Valley's scorn hierarchy! Being successively insulted by the person they looked down upon the most brought them double the shame and humiliation.
"Is it necessary to gloat in your victory? Your speed is impressive enough to escape. However... let's just wait and see." The Little Lion King's gaze turned cold as he stood with his hands behind his back, clenching his fists.
"No need to wait and see. Today, I'll give you a chance. I'm dying to die. Please, kill me." Tianming smiled.
"What do you mean?" The Little Lion King narrowed his eyes.
"I want to challenge the Fortuna Ranking. I don't know who to send the challenge letter to, but among you five hundred, there must be someone ranked after nine thousand on the ranking! The Ascension Colosseum is the enclosed environment you want, where I can't escape. One of you, come at me, and I'll give you the chance to kill me." Tianming stood tall, scanning the crowd.
The other side fell silent.
Tianming chuckled and continued, "Hey, dignified gold ring disciples. Please don’t tell me you only dare to besiege me, but not to duel me? Was it piss you all grew up on and not Myriadpath Sourcespring?"
"I'll go!"
"I'm over nine thousand!"
"Count me in! I'll slaughter him!"
After being provoked and challenged like that, they couldn't bear it anymore. Young people were always fierce and ruthless; if Tianming were in their shoes, he wouldn't be able to tolerate being repeatedly insulted and provoked by someone of low status, either.
Beside Huang Daosheng, the two women with leopard patterns couldn't stand it anymore. Without waiting for his permission, they directly said to Tianming, "I'm called Huang Jiaoyuan (Huang Jiaoyang)! Challenge me!"
Thus, Tianming had chosen his target! He would choose one from among these two.
"Huang Daosheng, maybe I can't beat you, but I can beat your women!" Tianming was very displeased about being burned by the guy’s golden flames earlier.
The two women with leopard patterns were eighth-level cosmic cartographer specters, two levels higher than Huang Jihuang. They were around three hundred and something years old, a hundred years older than him. Thus, their names were green and gold on the Fortuna Ranking.
Red was under a hundred, orange was over a hundred, yellow was over two hundred, green was over three hundred, and blue was over four hundred! A green-gold combo that could make it on the ranking was already good, because most of the names on the list were blue-gold combinations.
Tianming sent a challenge to the two women through his ring. They quickly received it! "I'll give you a chance to avenge your brother and help your House Huang regain its honor. If you have the guts, come!" he coldly sneered.
"Don’t accept!" Huang Daosheng quickly said. He knew that since Tianming had proposed a challenge, he obviously had the confidence to defeat an eighth-level cosmic cartographer. Even if they wanted to test his abilities, there were at least three people among the more than five hundred who could do it. He didn’t need to risk his women.
But he rebuked them all too late.
Tianming's provocation just now had worked. After he sent the challenge letter, the two women with leopard patterns competed against each other to accept the challenge and fight! Finally, according to the myriadpath rings’ judgment, the younger sister, Huang Jiaoyang accepted the challenge first.
The duel was set! The black myriadpath ring shot out a black light which collided with the golden light of Huang Jiaoyang's golden myriadpath ring. Then the mixed gold-and-black light hit a white Fortuna Arena!
A door opened in the half-spherical barrier of the Fortuna Arena and two beams of light surged from within, enveloping Tianming and Huang Jiaoyang.
"No! Forfeit!" Huang Daosheng angrily shouted.
"Big Brother Sheng, rest assured, I can definitely tear him to pieces! This tainted beastmaster would’ve already died countless times over if he couldn’t run so fast!" Huang Jiaoyang fiercely said.
"Big Brother Sheng, trust my sister!" Huang Jiaoyuan added.
"Huang Daosheng! Don't obstruct a challenge to the Fortuna Ranking!" There had always been elders overseeing the Fortuna Arena, ensuring fair fights.
Huang Daosheng could only give up and give a death glare to Tianming. “Touch her and your clan shall be exterminated to the ninth degree after you yourself die miserably!”
“Exterminate my clan to the ninth degree? Trying to threaten me? Fine! But let me warn you, if I end up breaking her and she dies, it’ll be your fault!” Tianming hated nothing more than the insistence on escalating any small matter to clan extermination. But that was apparently just how higher lifeforms did things.
Where was the creativity? Where were the principles?
Clearly, some things weren’t granted by evolution!
