Martial Master

Nian Wuji's entire body was filled with true energy, and he unexpectedly reached the mid-level of Heaven Level.

That profound aura even pressured some of the stronger figures present.

In an instant.

Everyone was on the verge of madness, each one with their mouths agape, unable to believe their eyes, desperately rubbing them.

Heavens, what happened in this year’s Blood Spirit Pool baptism? How could a mid-Heaven Level martial artist appear?

In nearly a hundred years of past Blood Spirit Pool baptisms, the strongest among all the geniuses barely broke through to the peak of the early Heaven Level.

Someone once concluded that for geniuses under the age of twenty-four, reaching early Heaven Level after entering the Blood Spirit Pool was already the limit.

But unexpectedly, Nian Wuji from the Ghost Immortal Sect broke this record and successfully broke through to the mid-Heaven Level.

This was the first occurrence in the history of the Blood Spirit Pool baptism.

For a moment, the crowd fell silent, inexplicably shocked.

Many were even left speechless.

How can anyone live with this?

At twenty-two years old, being at mid-Heaven Level indicated that Nian Wuji had a probability of over sixty percent to break through to the Mystic Level before thirty.

It could be foreseen that in the near future, the Ghost Immortal Sect would have an extraordinary powerhouse.

"Haha, Wuji, that's great! If the sect master knew about your breakthrough to mid-Heaven Level, he would definitely be overjoyed."

Elder Ling Zhong from the Ghost Immortal Sect was filled with joy. Under the envious gazes of everyone, he stepped forward and laughed heartily.

However, what was puzzling was that Nian Wuji's expression was extremely serious, showing no signs of happiness at all.

"Wuji, what's wrong?" Elder Ling Zhong asked in confusion.

Such a great occasion, and Nian Wuji was not happy at all, instead appearing grave and fierce. Could something have gone wrong during the breakthrough?

Thinking of this, Elder Ling Zhong's heart suddenly sank.

"Wuji, you didn’t suffer any bodily issues, did you?"

As he spoke, he was about to anxiously step forward to check.

For a genius, what mattered most was not how high their current cultivation was, but how far they could ultimately go in the future.

If Nian Wuji harmed his body in order to push for mid-Heaven Level, although his cultivation would show significant improvement in the short term, the future would be bleak.

At that time, when he returned to the sect, he would definitely face punishment from the sect master.

"Elder Ling Zhong, I'm fine. Hmph, that Qin Feng actually persisted longer than I did in the Blood Spirit Pool. It's simply unforgivable." Raising his head, Nian Wuji coldly declared, his eyes icy and fierce: "I, Nian Wuji, am the number one genius of the five countries in the northwest. How can I allow some noble's descendant to overshadow me?"

His fists clenched tightly, Nian Wuji's face twisted in rage.

"Is this why you look so fierce?"

Elder Ling Zhong stumbled, almost crying.

"Come on, someone just lasted longer than you. Do you need to look like you just lost your parents?"

It made him mistakenly think that Nian Wuji had a problem with his body, scaring him to death.

Moreover, you've already broken the record of the Blood Spirit Pool in so many years, what else do you want?

"Wuji, although that Qin Feng persisted longer than you, his cultivation may not be as good as yours; there's no need to care so much." Elder Ling Zhong wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said speechlessly.

"That's true!"

Hearing this, Nian Wuji's eyes brightened, regaining his confidence.

Persisting longer doesn’t mean one’s cultivation surpasses my own; I will still be the most dazzling one in this hundred years of Blood Spirit Pool baptism.

Just as he was lost in thought.

Buzz!

The formation ahead lit up again, and immediately a graceful figure walked out from the formation.

Another person is coming out!

Nian Wuji was actually not the last one?

Clearly not! Didn’t you hear Nian Wuji just say? The Qin Feng from Daqi Kingdom hasn’t appeared yet, and Miss You Qianxue from Ling Tian Sect hasn’t come out either.
