David slowly straightened his body, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and the Dragon Slayer Sword trembled slightly in his hand, emitting a deep dragon roar.
“You!”
Qin Lie was shaking with anger, but under Manager Zhang’s cold gaze, he forcefully suppressed his killing intent.
He stared deeply at the corpse on the ground, then flung his sleeves and shouted to the disciples behind him, “Bring back Zhao Jingfeng’s corpse! Let’s go!”
A group of disciples from the Divine Sword Palace rushed forward, wrapped Zhao Jingfeng’s body in white cloth, and left in a miserable state amidst countless gazes of disdain.
As Qin Lie’s figure disappeared behind the city gates, the hatred-filled oath returned like a ghost:
“David, we’ll see about the Sword Sect later!”
The tense atmosphere in the arena only eased slightly after the people from Shenjian Villa completely left.
The person in charge, Zhang, looked at David with a complicated expression: “Do you know that eliminating Zhao Jingfeng is like stirring up a hornet’s nest?”
David cupped his hands and said, “This junior understands, but where the true path lies, I will go even if it means facing a million people. If one can tolerate being attacked from behind, what’s the point of cultivating the path of the sword?”
The person in charge, Zhang, laughed out loud, “I know I didn’t misjudge you! Sacred Sword City will bear witness to what happened today. If the Divine Sword Palace dares to openly take revenge on Sacred Sword City, I will not tolerate it!”
He paused, then took out a jade token engraved with sword patterns from his robe: “This is the ‘Guardian Token’ of Divine Sword City. With this token, one can travel freely among the seven major sword sects on Fifth Heaven. If the Divine Sword Palace provokes us, we can use this token to request help from the major sects.”
David took the jade token, the surface felt warm and smooth to the touch, with faint spiritual energy flowing inside: “Thank you, Senior Zhang.”
“Your injury is quite serious, come down immediately and get medical treatment.”
The person in charge, Zhang, patted his shoulder and said, “You are the undisputed champion of the sword tournament.”
Mo Chen quickly stepped forward to help David: “David, I will take you to treat your wound.”
Ling Xue and Hu Mazi also gathered around, their eyes red when they saw David’s wound.
A group of Sword Sect disciples escorted them down from the arena, and the cultivators along the way made way for them, their eyes filled with admiration as they looked at David.
This young man, who was at the eighth rank of the Loose Immortal Realm, had successively eliminated Earth Immortal experts and even geniuses from the Divine Sword Palace. With such a resounding victory, he completely shocked the entire Holy Sword City.
After returning to the courtyard where the Sword Sect was located, Mo Chen immediately took out a healing pill and personally treated David’s wounds.
