"Alright, I can satisfy your curiosity now, as long as you defeat me, you can win the match," Tianjue nodded. Since Xia Liu refused to reveal the person behind him, he would make that person come forward himself. "Tsk tsk, wanting to defeat the Sect Leader without Earth-Rank Mid-Level Cultivation is difficult." "Haha! I like this kid, after all, he allows us to see the Sect Leader in action." "Right! I remember it's been five or six years since the last time the Sect Leader made a move." "Hehe, I hope this time the Sect Leader will take longer." All the disciples of the Taiji Sect were excited. The Sect Leader personally taking action, the result could be anticipated, but the process was what mattered most. "This time, this guy will definitely die." "Better dead, who let him be so arrogant." "I also hope he dies, but I always feel something is not right." "Don't overthink it, just watch carefully." Niu Zhenjie and Jiang Wenqiang were whispering among themselves, with Jiang Wenqiang looking particularly worried; he even felt for an instant that Xia Liu was an unparalleled master. He didn't frown even when facing a formidable Earth-Rank Warrior like Tianjue. If it were just a common Mysterious Rank Warrior under these circumstances, they probably couldn't even stand steadily. "Go ahead, young man," Tianjue stood with his hands behind his back like a grandmaster, appearing casual but actually being very cautious. He constantly scanned his surroundings with the corner of his eye, hoping to find the person hiding in the shadows. Unfortunately, he found no one; Xia Liu was alone. "Sect Leader Tianjue, you go first," Xia Liu stood similarly, confidently holding his head high with an air of arrogance. "Hmph! Arrogant boy! Today I'll let you see the power of an Earth-Rank Warrior!" Tianjue snorted coldly, provoked by Xia Liu. He believed there must be someone behind Xia Liu, perhaps someone he had offended during his younger years now seeking revenge. "Come on, I haven't fought with an Earth-Rank Warrior in a long time, I wonder how many rounds I can last," Feeling the heavy pressure exuding from Tianjue, Xia Liu licked the corner of his mouth. The memory of an Earth-Rank Warrior he had brutally tortured lingered in his mind. "Hmph! Watch out!" Without further ado, Tianjue took a step and the Taiji Sect techniques began to emerge. Facing the mysterious Xia Liu, he didn't use his trump card, simply employing Taiji Palm. Even the ordinary punching techniques of an Earth-Rank Warrior, without applying any strength, were generally enough to overpower a Mysterious Rank Warrior. Xia Liu had not removed the Spirit Stabilizing Needle; he could probably hold off Tianjue to a draw if it came to a hard clash. Since Tianjue didn't start off aggressively, it meant he was wary of him; since he started with Taiji Palm, Xia Liu would shake him with the same palm technique! "Wow! That guy's palm technique also looks like Taiji Palm!" "What do you mean 'looks like'? It clearly is!" "Damn! Who exactly is he?" Seeing Xia Liu also starting with Taiji Palm, the disciples of the Taiji Sect were all astonished. "Tsk tsk, by his looks, it seems he has studied Taiji Palm, even managing to bring out its essence!" As a disciple of the Kunlun Sect, Niu Zhenjie had some understanding of the techniques from other sects. "To bring out the essence, one must be a disciple of the sect; perhaps Xia Liu originated from the Taiji Sect!" Pan Jiang, hailing from the Wudang Sect, had quite a profound understanding of the Taiji Yin Yang. The Taiji Sect stemmed from the Taiyi Sect, and the Wudang Sect was also established by disciples of the Taiyi Sect in its early years but later diverged, hence forming its independent presence. Observing Xia Liu's opening stance, he had his suspicions but wasn't sure. "Very well! Be cautious!" Tianjue was also surprised by Xia Liu's opening stance, but only slightly. With a reminder, Tianjue's steps quickened, moving with high speed across the platform. Xia Liu also made his move, and his actions immediately astonished everyone present. Because his speed was almost identical to Tianjue's! Before the crowd could exclaim in surprise, the two on the stage had already clashed! Boom! The palms met, and a muffled sound continuously filled the surroundings. From this first encounter, Tianjue was certain of Xia Liu's undeniable strength. The crowd below the stage was also gaping in shock. Xia Liu was actually clashing with Tianjue, who possessed Earth-Rank Cultivation, and he was not at a disadvantage! Niu Zhenjie and Jiang Wenqiang nearly popped their eyes out, constantly repeating to themselves, This isn't real, this isn't real! "Haha! Truly a peerless master!" Pan Jiang was thrilled, Xia Liu and Tianjue's clash was nothing short of miraculous. "Hmm, Nether Emperor, eh... He's got some skill, but don't think Tianjue has just this little to show." "Old Xiong, don't think Xia Liu has just this little either." Seeing Xia Liu so easily counter Tianjue, Fang Huasheng laughed heartily inside, it seemed Xia Liu had hidden quite a bit more than it appeared. "Are you a disciple of the Taiji Sect?" Tianjue asked, stepping back a few steps and looking puzzled. "No, just Taiji Palm, I learned it casually." "Damn it!" Hearing Xia Liu belittle the Taiji Sect again, Tianjue really got angry. Around him, the dust continuously flared up, as if a gentle breeze had blown from Tianjue's body. "Here it comes! The Sect Leader is using his Inner Qi!" "The profound Inner Qi of an Earth-Rank Warrior!" "Haha! To make the Sect Leader use his Inner Qi, looks like this kid's mouth is really sharp!" "Now let's see how he still belittles the Taiji Sect!" Seeing Tianjue begin to mobilize the inner strength from his Dantian, the disciples of the Taiji Sect cheered. "The Inner Qi of an Earth-Rank Warrior..." Sensing the oppressive force emanating from Tianjue, Xia Liu murmured. Earth-Rank Warriors and Mysterious-Rank Warriors, two gaps that seemed vast as chasms. If the Inner Qi of a Mysterious-Rank Warrior was like a river, then that of an Earth-Rank Warrior was like a vast ocean! Xia Liu could see, the viscous Inner Qi that was almost solid continuously flowed out of Tianjue. At this, Xia Liu furrowed his brows. "Kid, be careful. Don't blame me if you get hurt for bullying the young with the old!" "It's fine, just do your thing." "Hmph! To the end, he won't repent!" Tianjue scoffed and the thick, viscous Inner Qi began to flow through his meridians. An overwhelming oppressive force continuously swept across the stage. The people seated below the stage felt it difficult to breathe. The oppressive force of an Earth-Rank Warrior was extraordinary. A high-strength Earth-Rank Warrior could even use their oppressive force to shatter the bodies of ordinary people. "Eight Trigrams Palm!" Tianjue bellowed, as he executed the Eight Trigrams, invisibly creating an image akin to an Eight Trigrams Formation Chart. "Eight Trigrams Palm, eh..." Xia Liu gazed intently for a long time. Eight Trigrams Palm should belong to the Taiyi Sect's palm techniques, and Tianqian had said that unless it was an elder descending from the Taiyi Sect, the Taiyi Eight Trigrams Palm could not be executed. Watching the way Tianjue executed his palms, Xia Liu couldn't help but laugh, realizing this guy had self-developed a set of palm techniques, same in name but utterly devoid of the essence of Yin Yang Eight Trigrams. "Hahaha! Let me show you what the Eight Trigrams Palm is!" Xia Liu laughed wildly, his feet trembled, his palms parted...
