Chapter 360 The Reluctant Li Qiming

"What?!"

The Martial Venerable powerhouses, who were about to leave the Heaven-Treading Hall for the Trial Tower, instantly froze.

All the Martial Venerable powerhouses stared at the direction of the Trial Tower in disbelief, their faces filled with astonishment.

"That kid actually cleared the eighth floor!"

"The formation on the eighth floor can summon an opponent at the intermediate Martial Emperor level, and a Martial Commander actually managed to kill him!"

"Most importantly, he just cleared the seventh floor not long ago, which means he can easily deal with a primary Martial Emperor. Perhaps his strength has already far surpassed an intermediate Martial Emperor!"

"There's actually such a monstrous talent in the world, a Martial Commander easily killing an intermediate Martial Emperor!"

"Enough talk, let's hurry over!"

"…"

The powerful Martial Venerable experts quickly left, rushing towards the Trial Tower at their fastest speed.

At the same time.

Li Qiming, Jin Xiutian, and others also received news of Su Lang challenging the Trial Tower.

When the news of Su Lang clearing the third floor came out, they all thought it was impossible.

However, when the news of Su Lang clearing the fourth… seventh, and eighth floors arrived.

They, like the students outside the tower, went blank in their minds, directly falling into a daze!

"Senior Su Lang is so strong!"

"I originally thought Senior Su Lang's talent was only extraordinary in alchemy, but I didn't expect his combat talent to be so powerful too!"

"The gap in combat power between a Martial Commander and a Martial Emperor is so vast, I wonder how Senior Su Lang managed to cross such a great chasm!"

Xiao Ning stood among the crowd, her beautiful eyes gleaming with a radiant glow.

"Su Lang is actually so formidable, able to clear the eighth floor!"

The long-braided youth Sun Teng, He Xuan, and others gathered together, their faces filled with terror.

Even if they had ten thousand heads, they couldn't have imagined that Su Lang would possess such powerful ability to fight above his rank.

If it were them fighting against Su Lang, they would probably be easily defeated.

Because these people were merely primary Martial Emperors or intermediate Martial Emperors.

"Damn it, we actually offended such a monstrous figure!"

"We were extremely discreet, I hope he doesn't find out, otherwise we're all finished!"

"Yes, with Su Lang's terrifying talent and potential, there will definitely be countless people trying to curry favor with him. By then, he won't even need to lift a finger, and we'll be done for!"

"…"

Sun Teng and the others looked at each other, their faces filled with regret and fear.

At the same time, they also understood one thing: why Su Lang had rejected Jin Xiutian's invitation.

Su Lang possessed such immense potential that his future achievements would likely surpass the entire Jin family combined. Why would he join the Jin family and become someone's subordinate?

If they had such heaven-defying aptitude and potential, they wouldn't be willing either.

"So Su Lang rejecting me wasn't arrogance, he truly had the capital!"

At this moment, Jin Xiutian also came to a realization: "Sigh, I said harsh words to him before, I hope he's not too vengeful."

On the other side.

"This is impossible!"

"How can a mere brat be so strong?"

Li Qiming stared at the Trial Tower in shock, his entire body trembling slightly.

It was too terrifying, a Martial Commander could kill an intermediate Martial Emperor!

If he ascended to Martial King, wouldn't he be able to fight against a Martial Venerable?

And if he ascended to Emperor level? Fighting a Martial God!?

"Monster, this Su Lang is a heaven-defying monster!"

"Fortunately, although I harbored animosity towards this person, there was no direct conflict from beginning to end."

"He shouldn't consider me an enemy; at most, he might have some hostility towards me because of Xiao Ning."

"But, I'm truly unwilling! I, Li Qiming, am the number one student of the Battle Gate, the unprecedented number one student, but this Su Lang…"

"Heavens, why did you give birth to me, Li Qiming, and then also give birth to Su Lang? No! I cannot be suppressed by him! My glory, my brilliance, cannot end here!"

A hint of lingering fear appeared on Li Qiming's face, followed by an extremely strong sense of unwillingness and jealousy.
