Chapter 373: Agreement of Two Years
"What am I laughing at?" The smiled on Duan Ling Tian's face was gradually restrained, and he said indifferently. "I'm laughing because you're shameless!"
Shameless? Zither Young Master's face sank.
"Who the f**k are you to make my fiancée into a wager... Are you sure there's nothing wrong with your head?" The corners of Duan Ling Tian's mouth curled into a sneer, and he didn't spare Zither Young Master's face in the slightest.
As soon as these words sounded out, the peak of Dubhe Peak was in a commotion.
"Duan Ling Tian is too brave, he actually dared insult Zither Young Master."
"As expected of the number one genius in the history of our Seven Star Sword Sect, he doesn't care in the slightest when faced with Zither Young Master, an outstanding martial artist within the younger generation of our Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom."
"If I had half the natural talent of Duan Ling Tian, it wouldn't come to the extent that I'm still unable to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage until now.
...
The crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect disciple spoke with words that were filled with adoration towards Duan Ling Tian.
"This kid..." Zheng Fan shook his head and smiled.
However, needless to say, in his opinion, Duan Ling Tian's current actions caused him to feel a burst of pleasure in his heart.
This Zither Young Master was truly too arrogant!
This wasn't the Zi Clan.
"No wonder Ke Er is unshakably determined to follow him." When she saw this scene, Qin Xian's face revealed a rare wisp of a gratified smile.
She was extremely satisfied with this future son-in-law.
"Satisfying!" Zheng Song was excited in his heart.
Presently, the one who stood before Duan Ling Tian was the Zither Young Master, one of the five great young masters of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom.
Although he possessed an aloof status within the Seven Star Sword Sect as he was an outstanding inner court disciples of the Seven Star Sword Sect and was even the son of the Mizar Peak's Master, he only possessed such status within the Seven Star Sword Sect.
After he left the Seven Star Sword Sect, he was nothing, and was completely unable to compare to Zither Young Master.
Now, when he saw Zither Young Master being humiliated, just like his father, Zheng Fan, he was secretly pleased in his heart.
Zuo Qing's eyes squinted as she jealously glanced at Ke Er.
In the past, she was still slightly puzzled.
Why would such outstanding young women like Ke Er and Li Fei be willing to follow the same man?
Now, she seemed to slightly understand.
This man had too much charisma. At least, as far as he was concerned, his woman was his reverse scale, and he wouldn't tolerate anyone disrespecting or humiliating them.
Zither Young Master recovered from his shock.
He looked at Duan Ling Tian and asked in slightly disbelief. "You asked me earlier, who the f**k I am?"
He thought he'd heard wrongly.
"Hmph!" Duan Ling Tian's icy cold gaze swept Zither Young Master. "Could it be that besides having something wrong with your brain, even your ears have something wrong with them?"
Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!
...
Waves of gasping suddenly sounded out.
The crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect inner court disciples felt their scalps go numb.
This Duan Ling Tian is without end!
After all, the person standing before him was no small figure.
Zither Young Master, one of the five great young masters of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom and possessed a cultivation at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage, he was something that the current Duan Ling Tian was far from able to compare to.
Shriek!
Right at this moment, an ear piercing sound echoed out, and a figure that was like a cloud that covered the sky instantly flashed out to envelop Duan Ling Tian's location.
"Animal!" Duan Ling Tian's face went gloomy.
The Dark Roc that Zither Young Master rode over seemed to have felt the rage of Zither Young Master, and it directly flashed towards the culprit, Duan Ling Tian, desiring to pounce on Duan Ling Tian and kill him.
Right at this moment, accompanied by a sword light that flashed out, Zheng Fan's voice sounded out. "Scram!"
The sword light followed like a shadow as it directly flashed towards the Dark Roc, terrifying the Dark Roc to the point it returned from where it came from, and its enormous body started to shiver...
As a demon beast, it was naturally able to feel how formidable that sword light was.
Along with the sword light dying out, the ancient horned dragon above Zheng Fan vanished after it.
"Animal, if you dare attack again, I'll kill you for sure!" Zheng Fan's voice revealed traces of coldness.
Terrifying the Dark Roc to the point it lowered its head like a human and emitted sorrowful cry.
"Peak Master Zheng Fan!" Zither Young Master's expression was incomparably unsightly when he saw Zheng Fan interfere.
Zheng Fan glanced indifferently at Zither Young Master. He was friendly to Zither Young Master earlier because he felt Zither Young Master had great potential, and would sooner or later obtain achievements similar to his.
But now that Zither Young Master had come into conflict with Duan Ling Tian, he naturally knew what was more important.
Moreover, not to mention Duan Ling Tian was a disciple of the Seven Star Sword Sect, but just based on Duan Ling Tian's unrivalled natural talent, it was already worth it for him to go all out and protect Duan Ling Tian.
Compared to Zither Young Master, he looked more favorably upon Duan Ling Tian's future.
"Little bastard!" Zither Young Master's gaze went slightly cold as he stared fixedly at Duan Ling Tian. "If you have the balls, then don't rely on others and fight me aboveboard... If you don't dare, the you're a pu**y, trash! You don't have the qualifications to possess Ke Er, and don't have the qualifications to protect Ke Er."
"What number one genius of the Seven Star Sword Sect? According to me, you're cowardly trash!"
Presently, Zither Young Master had already found out of Duan Ling Tian's identity from the whispered discussions of the crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect inner court disciples.
When he'd arrived earlier, this Duan Ling Tian was the person in the discussion of the Seven Star Sword Sect inner court disciple who possessed a natural talent in the Martial Dao that far surpassed him.
At that time, he feel a wave of unwillingness to accept it in his heart.
As far as he was concerned, within the younger generation of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom, the people who were able to make him take them seriously were only the two people amongst the five great young masters that were ranked before him.
He was even regarded the other two young masters than were ranked after him as beneath his notice.
Right when Ke Er was angered to the point her beautiful face flushed red and she intended to retort.
Duan Ling Tian spoke before her, and he indifferently swept Zither Young Master with his gaze. "Zither Young Master, right? Whether I have the qualifications to possess Ke Er isn't something you're able to decide, right? One must know one's limitations, and must know one's ability! As for asking me to fight you aboveboard... Don't you think it's laughable?"
"How old are you, Zither Young Master... and how old am I, Duan Ling Tian? You want to fight me aboveboard? Don't you feel ashamed?" As he finished speaking, a wisp of ridicule appeared on Duan Ling Tian's face.
To him, killing Zither Young Master was extremely simple, a single Bone Corrosion Inscription would be able to send him to hell...
The only reason he didn't do that now was because he knew that even if he utilized the Bone Corrosion Inscription, it would be stopped by Zheng Fan and Qin Xiang.
As the Peak Masters of the Seven Star Sword Sect, the two of them would absolutely not allow Zither Young Master to die in the Seven Star Sword Sect.
Perhaps, in their eyes, Zither Young Master's crimes didn't warrant death.
Duan Ling Tian's words caused Zither Young Master's face to sink.
"A pu**y is a pu**y... According to what you said, I, Zither Young Master, will be unable to fight you for my entire lifetime? So long as I want to fight you, I would be bullying the young?" Zither Young Master continued to ridicule as he wanted to enrage Duan Ling Tian.
But unfortunately, he was bound to be disappointed.
Duan Ling Tian had a calm expression as he said indifferently. "If you really want to fight me, it isn't impossible... Three years, after three years, I'll fight you aboveboard!"
Three years!
Duan Ling Tian's words were filled with strong confidence.
Zither Young Master's eyes squinted as cold lightly flickered within.
He gazed at Zheng Fan and Qin Xiang who stood nearby and noticed both of them had calm expression, seeming to not be shocked by Duan Ling Tian's words, and his heart couldn't help but sink.
Meanwhile.
"Three years? What a good plan... Duan Ling Tian's currently only at the age of 21 and he's already at the ninth level of the Origin Core Stage! With his natural talent, it isn't difficult to surpass Zither Young Master in another three years."
"After three years, Duan Ling Tian will surely be able to defeat Zither Young Master, I'm confident!"
"I'm confident as well."
...
The crowd of Seven Star Sword Sect inner court disciples were filled with confidence towards Duan Ling Tian.
The whispered discussions of these inner court disciples entered into the ears of Zither Young Master, and it caused his face to sink...
This Duan Ling Tian is only 21?
A 21 year old ninth level Origin Core Stage martial artist...
Such natural talent does indeed surpass me.
Even he hadn't stepped into the ninth level of the Origin Core Stage at the age of 21.
"Two years... I'll give you two years!" Zither Young Master looked at Duan Ling Tian, and his words had no intention of bargaining as he said in a low voice, "I hope that after two years, you, this number one genius of the Seven Star Sword Sect won't be shrinking away and relying on the strength of others... A that time, I'll defeat you and even kill you! I want to let Ke Er know that only I, Zither Young Master, Zi Shang, is the man that's most suitable for her!" After he finished, Zither Young Master's figure flashed to return to the back of the Dark Rock.
When he left, he had a flustered and exasperated expression.
Compared to when he arrived, he was completely like a different person!
"Two years?" Duan Ling Tian gaze slightly moved to stare at the back of Zither Young Master who rode the Dark Roc into the distance, and the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer as he muttered, "As you wish!"
"That Zither Young Master, Zi Shang, is too shameless!" Zheng Song was slightly outrage for Duan Ling Tian.
As far as he was concerned, if Duan Ling Tian had three years of time, then with Duan Ling Tian's natural talent in the Martial Dao, surpassing Zither Young Master wasn't a difficult task.
But two years of time...
Duan Ling Tian wanting to defeat Zither Young Master in two years was extremely difficult.
Duan Ling Tian shrugged and said indifferently, "Actually, in my opinion, there isn't a big difference between two years or three years... Since he said two years, then it is two years! In this way, it might be able to give me some pressure and allow me to stimulate the potential within my body!" As he finished speaking, Duan Ling Tian was filled with strong confidence.
This caused the Seven Star Sword Sect inner court disciples that were present to be filled with admiration.
Duan Ling Tian desired to defeat Zither Young Master two years from now...
If he's able to do it, the Duan Ling Tian might become the peerless prodigy in the younger generation of the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom that surpasses the five great young masters!
When they thought of how the peerless prodigy would be from their Seven Star Sword Sect, their hearts were filled with excitement.
Ke Er and Li Fei's gazes descended onto Duan Ling Tian and were filled with extremely tender love.
"Young Master, this is my Master, the Peak Master of Alkaid Peak." In next to no time, Ke Er introduced Qin Xiang to Duan Ling Tian, then she had a blushed face as she looked at Qin Xiang. "Master, this is my Young Master."
Ke Er had an embarrassed expression when she looked at Qin Xiang.
"Peak Master." Duan Ling Tian slightly bowed to Qin Xiang, as she was Ke Er's Master and had the qualifications to make him bow.
Qin Xiang glanced deeply at Duan Ling Tian. "Looks like before you, my face is greater than the Sect Leader..."
Qin Xiang remembered that even when he was facing the Sect Leader of the Seven Star Sword Sect, Linghu Jin Hong, the young man before her had never once bowed.
Yet now, before her, he'd bowed.
