“Senior Brother, don’t worry! I know what I’m doing!” Su Mo nodded and said.

“Alright!”

Wang Hui nodded slightly, and then reminded Su Mo, “Your talent is incredible, but you must remember not to be unrealistic in pursuing your goals!”

“If you can enter the top 100 in the Outer Disciple Competition, Master would be very satisfied!”

“Understood!”

Su Mo nodded and did not say anything else.

Su Mo knew no matter what he said, Wang Hui did not believe he could enter the top 10.

If he kept trying, Wang Hui would just think he was arrogant.

Wang Hui chatted with Su Mo for a long time before leaving.

Su Mo went back to his room afterwards.

“In the Outer Disciple Competition, it would be inevitable for me to fight against members of the Sky Alliance if I want to enter the top 10!”

Su Mo looked down and became lost in his thought as he sat on the bed.

“My strength is not enough, let’s start by entering Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm!”

Su Mo then emptied his mind from distractions and started cultivating.

He released his Devouring Martial Spirit to absorb the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth.

In Su Mo’s elixir field, five Spiritual Spirals were rotating rapidly, an enormous amount of genuine Qi was churning madly.

Boom!

Genuine Qi was boiling like roaring waves of the ocean.

Su Mo was breaking into Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm.

He applied his Devouring Martial Spirit to the maximum, and huge amounts of Spiritual Qi were absorbed by Su Mo.

An enormous amount of Spiritual Qi was channeled into Su Mo’s elixir field, supporting him in breaking through the realm bottleneck.

“This won’t work. It’s still too slow!”

A slight moment later, Su Mo took out a bottle of elixirs, poured out two pills, and swallowed them.

His Devouring Martial Spirit had been promoted to Rank 9 Human Class, and its speed of absorbing Spiritual Qi was very terrifying.

But he had five Spiritual Spirals, so the Spiritual Qi absorbed by his Martial Spirit was not enough.

If he depended purely on his Martial Spirit to absorb the Spiritual Qi for breaking through his realm, it would only be possible in six to seven days.

Hence, Su Mo still needed to rely on the elixirs.

Su Mo exchanged four bottles of elixirs the last time. All of them are Upper Lv 2 Pills, called Purple Cloud Pill.

As soon as he swallowed the Purple Cloud Pill, its surging efficacy burst out in his abdomen.

Su Mo tried his best to guide its power to flow through his meridians for refinement and eventually distributed into his five Spiritual Spirals.

Boom!

Time passed slowly.

There was nothing but silence in Su Mo’s room.

Finally, after several hours.

An immense aura was emitted from the room.

The aura swept across the whole courtyard.

It had come and gone.

In just a few breaths, the aura disappeared without a trace.

“What’s going on?”

“What a powerful aura!”

In the rooms beside, Li Feng and Niu Xiaohu were alerted by the aura and came out to see what was going on.

The two of them looked at each other, only to simultaneously settle their sights on Su Mo’s room at the end.

“It can’t be… Senior Brother Su Mo has broken through his cultivation again!”

Niu Xiaohu asked with his eyes wide open from astonishment.

“It could be!” Li Feng nodded and said.

At their current state, Li Feng and Niu Xiaohu could no longer tell Su Mo’s true strength. All they knew was that Su Mo was ridiculously strong.

But they could not tell exactly which level of Spiritual Martial Realm Su Mo was at.

“It is good that Senior Brother Su Mo has broken through his cultivation! We must work hard too!” Li Feng said.

The two went back to their rooms afterwards.

In the room, Su Mo opened his eyes and a fine light shined in his eyes briefly.

Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm!

After consuming two bottles of elixirs, Su Mo had finally entered Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm. His strength had surged again.

With a smile on his face, Su Mo slowly let out a mouthful of heavy air.

With his current strength, there were not many left in the Outer Gate that could beat him.

However, the Top 10 Outer Disciples all had great combat strength. Without fighting them, Su Mo was unclear of their true strength.

Furthermore, in the Top 10 Outer Disciples, Nangong Linjue, ranked number one, could kill martial artists of Lv 7 Spiritual Martial Realm effortlessly. That was truly a terrifying combat strength!

“I need to improve my strength further just to be sure!”

Su Mo faced two choices currently.

He still had lots of Upper Lv 2 Pills, he could either improve his cultivation or his human body strength.

After some thoughts, Su Mo decided to cultivate his human body.

If he tried to improve his cultivation, he would not make it to Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm before the Outer Disciple Competition.

He could reach the Peak Lv 5 Spiritual Martial Realm at the maximum.

The increase in his strength would be limited in that case.

However, choosing to improve his human body strength, meant that he would get stronger, and be able to compact another Spiritual Spiral.

By then, six Spiritual Spirals meant that his combat strength would have increased by sixfold, it would be unstoppable!

Right away, Su Mo began operating the cultivation method of the Elephant’s Strength Skill and began to cultivate his human body.

His Martial Soul continuously absorbed Spiritual Qi, while Su Mo kept taking elixirs.

Efficacy and Spiritual Qi were rampaging inside Su Mo’s body, turning into many shadows of small elephants. Countless shadows of small elephants roared fiercely, before being absorbed into Su Mo’s meridians and bones.

Su Mo’s human body strength was increasing slowly.

Time passed, as Su Mo consumed all the elixirs.

His human body had improved once again. Elephant’s Strength Skill had ascended from the late 5th stage into the Completion Realm.

However, it was not enough for him to compact the sixth Spiritual Spiral.

Su Mo continued cultivating Lv 6 of the Elephant’s Strength Skill.

However, without the support of the elixirs, the speed of cultivation slowed by several times.

In the following month, Su Mo rarely left his room.

He spent most of his time cultivating Elephant’s Strength Skill and his human body strength was improving steadily.

Sometimes, he would head out to that isolated cliff to cultivate his fistplay.

Over a month, time passed by in the blink of an eye.

The Outer Disciple Competition was starting soon!

…

In the Outer Gate area, there were ten towers, each three-stories tall. The inner decorations were luxurious, far different from the residence of common Outer Disciples.

This was where the Top 10 Outer Disciples reside.

At the moment, one of the towers had close to 100 people, gathering in the grand hall of the tower.

These people all had powerful auras, all of them were at Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm.

In the center of the grand hall, a solemn-looking youth was sitting cross-legged on the futon.

“Guys, in this year’s Outer Disciple Competition, Senior Brother Duan will be spectating. I hope that the Sky Alliance, us, can win all of the top 10 positions!”

The youth spoke softly as he glanced over the crowd.

Although his face was calm, what he said was shocking.

To take all top 10 positions!

“Senior Brother Nangong, taking seven or eight positions would not be a problem, but taking all 10 would be harder!” a handsome and elegant young man replied to the solemn-looking youth.

This handsome young man was Yi Xiaoguang, ranked number seven in the Top 10 Outer Disciples.

Yi Xiaoguang paused briefly, and said, “Ling Muchen, ranked number three, and Fei Kuang, ranked number five, are both overly powerful. Apart from you and Senior Sister Bing Ye, no one is guaranteed to beat them!”

The solemn-looking youth was none other than the number one in Outer Gate, Nangong Linjue.

Nangong Linjue went silent briefly after hearing what Yi Xiaoguang said. He nodded slightly and said to the crowd, “Just do your best to take as many positions as possible, to bring glory to Sky Alliance!”

“Yes! Senior Bother Nangong!” the crowd replied unanimously.

“Alright, you can all return!” Nangong Linjue said as he waved his hand.

The crowd turned and was about to leave.

“Senior Brother Nangong, there is one more thing!”

Suddenly, someone spoke, and the crowd stopped.

He Yangjun walked out from the crowd.

“Senior Bother Nangong. An Outer Disciple named Su Mo killed a dozen of our people at the Decisive Struggle Hall a while ago!”

He Yangjun said with a sinister expression. “We must spare him no mercy in the Outer Disciple Competition!”

Nangong Linjue replied coldly with no change in expression, “Do you really have to ask me about trivial matters like this? Pass the order, whoever meets this person on the fighting ring, shall kill him without exception!”

“Yes!”

The crowd replied once again, then left.

…

Su Mo sat cross-legged in his room.

He had cultivated his Elephant’s Strength Skill to the initial stage of Lv 6, his human body was now comparable to a Martial Artist at Lv 6 Spiritual Martial Realm.

It was time to compact the sixth Spiritual Spiral!

He operated the Nine Spirals Mystique.

In Su Mo’s elixir field, one of the Spiritual Spirals started to slowly split.

As the sixth Spiritual Spiral began taking shape, tremendous genuine Qi was impacting Su Mo’s body.

Compacting the sixth Spiritual Spiral was 100 times harder than compacting the fifth Spiritual Spiral.

Time passed, as two days went by in the blink of an eye.

Clump! Clump! Clump!

One day in the morning, a bell sound was suddenly heard in the outer gate area of Gale Island.

The bell sound soon spread across the whole Gale Island.

The Outer Disciple Competition had officially commenced!
