Chapter 2705 Distribution Begins
“Hahaha! Even heaven is helping me! Now is the moment for the reversal of life and death!”
The youth’s laughter shook the area as he opened his arms and looked up to the sky.
He was none other than Zi Xiao.
Zi Xiao’s body was filled with the immense power of Life-and-Death and he was covered by the Life-and-Death Rule.
The immense power of Life-and-Death and the Life and Death Rule formed two mysterious airstreams like a combination of Yin-Yang and it was black and white.
The black and white airstreams surged vigorously around Zi Xiao like a tornado, and his aura was incredible.
A visible white airstream twirled around him and turned black rapidly.
As the color of the airstream changed, the huge Beast Soul withered like grass and its life force dwindled.
“This…!”
“How did it happen?”
“I am surprised to see that he has such high attainment in the Life and Death Rules!”
The disciples around them were apprehensive. They realized that Zi Xiao was killing the Beast Soul with his Life-and-Death power.
Suddenly, many people started to attack the Beast Soul. They were hoping that they would be rewarded for playing a part in killing the Beast Soul.
As expected, the huge Beast Soul lost its life force in three breaths.
When the white airstream turned completely black, the huge Beast Soul cried out and collapsed.
After the Beast Soul collapsed, it did not dissipate. It turned into green smog and entered Zi Xiao’s body.
Suddenly, a golden light burst out of Zi Xiao’s body and shone brightly in the area.
“Hahaha! I have finally succeeded!”
Zi Xiao laughed aloud. His voice resounded in the area, and he was full of excitement. He said viciously, “Su Mo, I shall see how you are going to deal with me in the future!”
Zi Xiao was thrilled. Since he had killed the Beast Soul, he would become Tai Ying Sovereign’s disciple. He no longer had to be afraid in the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance and Cloud Ridge World. He was fearless, and he would have a bright future ahead.
All the disciples were looking at Zi Xiao with different expressions on their faces. Zi Xiao had obtained the Good fortune!
However, there was no way for them to take the Good fortune away from him. After all, it was different from the tokens. Whoever killed the Beast Soul earned the Good fortune and no one could take it away from him.
Ba Shiyu was stunned. He had lost again in the Selection!
Although he had great combat strength, it was useless.
“Great!” Di Yihun, who was standing beside Zi Xiao, smiled. He and Zi Xiao had successfully emerged as winners in the Selection and they would have great futures.
By now, all of them knew that the Beast Soul was dead and there was no life in it.
Tai Ying Sovereign stood outside the Star Beast and smiled, his eyes shimmering.
He knew about the situation in the Beast Star and he was aware that Zi Xiao was the one who had killed the Star Beast.
At that instant, the elders who were waiting outside the Star Beast were full of anticipation. They knew that the Star Beast no longer possessed any life force.
That meant that the Star Beast had died. However, they had no idea who had killed it.
All of them wondered who had killed the Star Beast and gained the Good fortune. Could it be Zi Xiao?
Su Mo reckoned that there was a high possibility that Zi Xiao was the one.
“The Headquarters Selection has ended. You may come out!”
Tai Ying Sovereign said. Although his voice was not loud, it resonated in the Star Beast’s body and was heard by all the disciples.
The elders who were outside the Star Beast waited patiently. After a while, the disciples started to fly out of the Star Beast.
Zi Xiao’s body was exuding golden light and he caught everybody’s attention.
When the people saw this, they knew that Zi Xiao was the one who had killed the Beast Soul.
Many elders were sighing secretly. Their disciples had failed as they had not obtained any token. Ba Shiyu, Murong Qi, and Shi Zixuan flew out one after another.
The three of them did not look good They looked disheartened.
Although they were well-known and powerful among the Supreme Beings in the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance, they had failed.
However, they had no complaints. After all, the rules were fair and it was a fact that they had lost.
When the people saw the expressions on their faces, they knew that none of them had obtained the token.
Lin Ya, Ge Li, Quan Ruhai, and Xiao Yushu were out as well. Some of them were severely injured but it posed no serious problem to them.
Lin Ya was unscathed as she had not taken part in the fierce fight.
I’ve guessed it right! Su Mo looked at Zi Xiao and his face became solemn. He knew immediately that Zi Xiao had killed the Beast Soul when he saw the strange phenomenon on his body.
He felt helpless but he could do nothing about
it.
Fortunately, Zi Xiao would not have been able to achieve much even if he were to become Tai Ying Sovereign’s disciple. Swoosh!
After Zi Xiao flew out, he flew toward Su Mo instead of going straight to Tai Ying Sovereign.
Soon, he stopped above Su Mo and looked down at him.
“Su Mo, I wonder how you are feeling!” Zi Xiao said as he curled his lips into a derisive smile.
He was overjoyed. Su Mo had not managed to kill him, and he was on his way to make extensive progress. “A chicken will forever remain a chicken. Even if it puts on a beautiful outer coat and soars up to the sky, it will never turn into a phoenix.” Su Mo said flatly.
“Hoho! Don’t be stubborn. I know that you are envious of me!”
Zi Xiao sneered, “I know you have the token. In the future, we will have lots of time sparring with each other in Suspended Holy Mountain!”
Having said that, Zi Xiao flew up to the sky and landed beside Tai Ying Sovereign.
“Tai Ying Sovereign, I am Zi Xiao. I have killed the Beast Soul!” Zi Xiao said respectfully to Tai Ying Sovereign. His attitude was different from the way he treated Su Mo.
“Well done!” Tai Ying Sovereign said as he nodded. He sized Zi Xiao up and said, “From now on, you are my Pro-Disciple. We will carry out the ceremony later.”
Tai Ying Sovereign was glad. He knew that Zi Xiao was not the most powerful disciple, but he was the most suitable disciple for him.
“Yes, Teacher!” Zi Xiao cupped his fist respectfully at Tai Ying Sovereign and went behind him. He behaved sensibly.
Tai Ying Sovereign looked at the people and said, “Those who have obtained the tokens will become disciples of the Ancient Cloud Star Alliance. You may step forth and hand the tokens over to me.”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The minute Tai Ying Sovereign made that statement, 10 people flew to the front and landed beside him.
Di Yihun was amongst them. He and the nine disciples looked excited.
Many people were looking at Su Mo. They knew that Su Mo had obtained 20 tokens but he did not fly over to Tai Ying Sovereign.
Su Mo slowly stood up. He lifted his head to look at Tai Ying Sovereign and asked, “Tai Ying Sovereign, can I put off using the 20 tokens?”
Su Mo’s plan was to keep some tokens. He wanted to go to the Cosmic World and bring his family and friends over. He would then pass the tokens to a few of them so that they could become disciples of the Headquarters.
It would be great if he were allowed to do so.
“No!” Tai Ying Sovereign replied flatly. Put off using them? He is not taking the discipleship seriously!
“Must I use them today?” Su Mo asked with a frown.
“Yes. You have to use them today!” Tai Ying Sovereign replied firmly. “I see!”
Su Mo nodded. He looked at Ling Chang and Lin Ya and said, “Senior Sisters, can you come over? I shall give you one token each!”
When Ling Chang and Lin Ya heard what Su Mo had said, they flew over to him. Ling Chang looked calm, but Lin Ya was exhilarated.
After she learned that Su Mo had obtained 20 tokens, she reckoned that he would give one to her. However, she could not help feeling excited about it. After all, it was a Good fortune.
Su Mo handed the tokens over to Ling Chang and Lin Ya before the people. After the two ladies had received the tokens, they flew over to Tai Ying Sovereign. The disciples from the various branches looked eager and they stared at Su Mo with wishful thoughts.
However, they did not know Su Mo and thus, it would have been inappropriate for them to ask him for the tokens.
Swoosh!
Suddenly, Priest Tian Hua brought Quan Ruhai and Chang Yi over to Su Mo. “Wu Shan, whether your name is Wu Shan or Su Mo, you are Palmy Branch’s outstanding disciple!”
Priest Tian Hua said sincerely, “Can you give Quan Ruhai and Chang Yi each a token so that they can become disciples of the Headquarters?”
Priest Tian Hua did not beat around the bush. He asked Su Mo upfront for two tokens.
Quan Ruhai looked embarrassed. After all, he and Su Mo had conflicts with each other and he felt apprehensive. He was worried that Su Mo would not give the token to him.
After all, Priest Tian Hua’s words no longer carried any weight and he could not influence Su Mo.
