Chapter 100: Low key Destiny Pavilion

Defeat Zhuo Junjie!

Selected for the ranking?

Ye Xuan and the other four were shocked, even Zhu Yanqing stared at Qin Jun's figure with burning eyes. They didn't expect him to be such a genius.

Qin Jun said indifferently, "What are you? Is it necessary for me to accept the challenge of every Tom, Dick, and Harry?"

The young man in white robe felt embarrassed, then hurriedly said, "I am the second-ranked genius of the Canglan Kingdom, Song Yufeng!"

Second-ranked genius?

Qin Jun couldn't help but size up Song Yufeng, who, like Zhuo Junjie, was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage, but with an added military aura.

Glancing back at the soldiers on the city wall, all of whom were mocking, he had a thought. Then, he leaped down from the back of the Canglan Wolf, and with a flip of his right hand, the majestic Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear appeared in his hand out of thin air.

"Ding! Triggered side quest—Defeat Song Yufeng! Completion reward: 5000 experience points!"

Oh, he actually triggered a side quest!

It seems that renowned geniuses are indeed extraordinary.

"Come on, let's make it quick!"

Now at the second level of the Golden Core stage, Qin Jun had no reason to fear Song Yufeng. Moreover, judging from the soldiers' expressions, they were all confident in Song Yufeng. If he could defeat him in front of everyone, it might even deal a heavy blow to the morale of the border soldiers.

The death of Xiao Beilong had made all the soldiers of the Canglan Kingdom resent the Qianyue Kingdom to the core. Deep down, they also had a fear that they were unwilling to admit.

Hearing Qin Jun's acceptance, Song Yufeng's eyes lit up. He fiercely patted the scabbard with his right hand, and the long sword flew out, its light shining. He stomped his left foot and charged towards Qin Jun, swiftly catching the falling long sword with his right hand.

"So fast!"

Ye Xuan muttered, staring at Song Yufeng with wide eyes. He didn't expect the Canglan Kingdom to have such a genius.

Yang Lan, Murong Xuan, and Zong Yan were also surprised, while Zhu Yanqing remained calm, as if Song Yufeng didn't meet her standards.

Facing the aggressive Song Yufeng, Qin Jun swung the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear towards him. The five-thousand-kilogram heavy spear was wielded with the force of Mount Tai pressing down. Although Song Yufeng sensed that the spear might be heavy, he never expected it to weigh five thousand kilograms.

It's extremely difficult for a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator to wield a five-thousand-kilogram weapon with ease. Only a very small number of people with extraordinary physical talents could do it. If it weren't for the innate breathing technique bestowed upon him by the Howling Heaven Hound, Qin Jun wouldn't have been able to double his strength in a short period of time.

"Dare to compare strength with me!"

A hint of disdain flashed in Song Yufeng's eyes. After all, he was a soldier, much stronger in terms of strength than cultivators of the same level. So, seeing Qin Jun intending to confront him head-on, he naturally felt elated.

Unfortunately, Qin Jun was not a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.

"Clang—"

The Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear struck the long sword, and the unimaginable force instantly broke Song Yufeng's sword. His face turned pale, but it was too late to evade.

Crack!

The Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear struck his chest, instantly shattering his sternum. He was sent flying, and although the whole process seemed slow when described, it was actually just a split second, visually stunning and leaving everyone in awe.

With a thud, Song Yufeng landed on a wooden cart more than twenty meters away, coughing up blood and then passing out.

"Ding! Side quest completed—Defeat Song Yufeng! Reward: 5000 experience points!"

Five thousand experience points were equivalent to the experience gained from killing a cultivator at the fifth level of the Golden Core stage. It seems that in the future, he should specifically seek out such renowned geniuses to challenge.

Qin Jun thought joyfully, completely unaware of the stunned expressions of all the soldiers on the city wall behind him, and even Ye Xuan and the others. The Qianyue Kingdom group, on the other hand, was accustomed to it. If Qin Jun, who could severely wound a Golden Core stage beast, were to lose to Song Yufeng, they would be surprised.

"Let's continue on our way!"

Qin Jun turned around, carrying the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear, and said, "There's no need to bring out the Purple Gold Emperor's Armor for this kind of trash."

Jia Xun quickly woke up and urged the Imperial Guards to continue forward. The border soldiers nearby hurried to Song Yufeng, but none of them lost their composure to intercept Qin Jun. Song Yufeng had actively challenged the other party, and losing could only be attributed to his inferior skills, without any injustice.

"This guy really is a cultivator at the Golden Core stage!"

Zhu Yanqing murmured as she stared at Qin Jun's figure. Ye Xuan felt uncomfortable deep down. He had long regarded Zhu Yanqing as his woman, and now seeing her paying so much attention to another man naturally made him unhappy. But he couldn't say anything. He couldn't just go challenge Qin Jun, could he?

Judging from Song Yufeng's speed and momentum just now, he was evenly matched with Ye Xuan. Such a character being ruthlessly defeated by Qin Jun made Ye Xuan not dare to overestimate himself and jump into a fight.

Yang Lan and Zong Yan, who had always been dissatisfied with Qin Jun, were now completely silent, and even dared not comment on him.

"My goodness, the Prince of the Qianyue Kingdom is actually so strong. It's said that he's only sixteen years old!"

"No wonder he could defeat Zhuo Junjie. Even Song Yufeng was killed by him."

"It's said that General Xiao was lured by this kid before he made the death pact. I didn't expect this kid himself to be a monstrous genius. Ah, why hasn't such a genius appeared in our Canglan Kingdom?"

"That's true. Look at his mount. From my observation, it's definitely a third-rank demonic beast!"

The demonic beasts are divided into ten ranks, with nine levels in each rank. The first rank is equivalent to the Qi Refining Realm, the second rank to the Foundation Establishment Realm, the third rank to the Golden Core Realm, the fourth rank to the Nascent Soul Realm, and the fifth rank to the Void Transformation Realm. Once a demonic beast reaches the fifth rank, it can undergo a transformation. At this moment, both Daji and the Xiong Tian Dog are equivalent to fifth-rank demonic beasts. As for why the Xiong Tian Dog has not undergone transformation, Qin Jun has asked before, but it remained ambiguous and did not answer.

With the resentful, jealous, shocked, and fearful gazes of the border soldiers, Qin Jun and the others walked towards the horizon.

Meanwhile, the news of Song Yufeng's defeat swept through the Canglan Kingdom like a whirlwind.

Although Song Yufeng did not make it onto the Human Ranking List, as the second genius, being killed by Qin Jun is enough to show that Qin Jun's ranking on the Human Ranking List is indeed well-deserved.

"By the way, where can I buy the roster of the Human Ranking List?" Qin Jun, sitting on the back of the Cang Wolf, curiously asked the Blood Blade King who was following beside him.

The Blood Blade King, who now completely admires Qin Jun, quickly replied, "The Fate Pavilion in each city sells it."

Almost every kingdom and city has a Fate Pavilion, and no one dares to provoke it. The Fate Pavilion itself is a transcendent force, and its various branches are usually very low-key. However, they can sell any information that cultivators want, as long as the cultivator can provide equivalent gifts, such as spirit stones, magical instruments, and techniques.

Not to mention the Human Ranking List, Qin Jun almost forgot that the Fate Pavilion is a transcendent force. There's no way around it; the Fate Pavilion is just too low-key.
