Words : 1026 Updated : Oct 3rd, 2025

Some came to see the fighting genius who could defeat 29 cultivators with the same cultivation as him. They came here a day ago. Others came to see the fighting genius who could fight and defeat 35 cultivators with the same cultivation as him. This set of people came an hour ago, so they were situated at the back of the crowd in the air. This multitude of people numbering in the tens of thousands came for different reasons and came at different times. But they all came to see him. There were tens of thousands of people standing on the ground or in the air in front of the library. But one wouldn't think that there were so many people here because there was no noise. There was no sound at all. Everyone was silent. No one was speaking of moving. They were all staring at the teleportation platform with intense focus. The only sound that could be heard was the sound of the wind moving on the top of the mountain and the sounds of robes flapping in the wind. If it were before when Arthur had the dominating fire intent and was innately prideful, he would revel in the feeling of being in the spotlight. He might grin or raise his chin proudly. But now, he didn't feel anything worth celebrating about the situation. Most of these people were just like the golems that he could kill with a single hit. They weren't worth his consideration. It was just normal that he was better than them. So his face was indifferent as he took out his flying board and activated it. He took to the sky and left as if there was no one around him. The lady in the third position of the ranking list watched him leave with a glimmer of excitement in her eyes. Her forked tongue slithered out of her mouth as she said, "Smells good. Must be delicious." Her hair and her eyes were red. These features are her natural features. Her unnatural features are the forked tongue and the fanged teeth. She gained these mutations because her innate blood physique was very compatible with the blood essence of the rank 5 snake that she used to transcend the first mortal coil. She initially came to see Arthur. She was interested in seeing him for herself because she was one of the few who passed the first level of the fighting excellence test. She failed to pass the second level, so she wanted to see the person who could not only do better than her but also do way better than her. That was her initial intention. But now she is thinking of eating him. She doesn't plan to kill Arthur, of course. She is not that crazy. She just wants to have a taste of his flesh. She could smell that his physique was vibrant and full of life. His smell riled up her serpentine instincts. Apart from the intention to have sex with him, her most pertinent interest in him is to taste his flesh. Not that she can't have both at the same time. After all, there is no rule that says that she can't bite him while having sex with him. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that her intentions were reasonable. She soon made up her mind to have both. Her eyes glinted as she thought to herself, "I must have him." But seeing as he is stronger than her, she thought that it wouldn't be easy for her to have her way with him. So she left to go and train her spells and techniques. She wasn't the only one who left. Many people decided to leave too after having satiated their curiosity. As people left, they began to chat with each other. What they were talking about was Arthur. They were wondering how he did it. Many people wanted to know. Unfortunately, the personnel hall didn't release the private information that they had collected from his fight. People continued to chat about the record even when they were far away from the library. This way they spread the news all over the sect to the people who didn't already know about the record. Almost everyone in the outer sect found out about it in less than a day. Even the pompous humanoid beast who didn't like associating with humans found out about the record. She was in second place in the newbie ranking. She was already riled up when she found out that Arthur had broken through to the second transformation before her. She had locked herself up in the cultivation room and was busy cultivating. But no matter how she tried to concentrate, she couldn't help but ask herself, "How did he do it?" She kept asking herself that question because she couldn't figure out how he did it. Her third eye kept rolling around on her forehead as she tried to figure it out. As someone with a special bloodline and a rich background that supports her with a large amount of resources, she thought that she would be the first one to reach the second transformation. It was already unbelievable that a human beat her in reaching the second mortal coil. So she has been cultivating with pills and energy stones nonstop since that loss. The pills were superior-grade rank 2 cultivation pills, and she had lost count of how many energy stones she had used to cultivate. In fact, she is holding an energy stone in her hand right now. She is not relying on the concentration of mana in the environment to cultivate. So her current environment doesn't make a difference to her cultivation speed. Only the conditions of the superior accommodations above her can match or be better than using low-grade energy stones to cultivate. Yet, she has only reached 91% progress towards the second transformation. She thought she was fast. Apparently, she was wrong. She has been proven wrong twice in a row now.
