Guo Cheng Hai, do you think I dare not to destroy your establishment?" Elder Yang threatened and took his unsheathed his sword hold by one of his personal guards, and tried to attack him. But his action was taken as an offensive manner by the people of the Humble Hall of Treasure, causing a fight to begin!

Outside of the establishment, there was over another hundred of soldiers in their 3rd and 4th Stage of Inner Qi Fighter. When the shout of Elder Yang is heard, all of them withdraws their weapon to fight against the people belonged to the establishment, and even some passerby were included in the brawl.

Just with a shout! That was how easy it is to incite a fight, and how intolerable is the overbearing manner carried by each of the members of Militarized Forces. They completely ignore the fact the person in charge of this city didn't belong to their faction and dare to behave in such atrocious manner!

"Hall Master, our main door has been destroyed! The Militarized Forces are coming into our courtyard as we talk!" a supervisor of the establishment reported the situation to his master, but it was useless, because just minutes after his report, the intruders already smashed the door into the hall, and barge into the hall without any control.

Swords and spears were pointed and random people, trying to incite fear to everyone in the Auction Hall. This was a normal gesture as a soldier to control the crowd and their rebellious action, and pressure those braver people to step down from what they intended to do.

But when it was used in a peaceful scenario, this action turned into an act of rebellion, with the intention to shuts everyone's mouth from continuing to spread the news of their atrocious manner. Because all of the soldiers were well trained in their camps, they're much more organized and easily surrounded the whole Auction Hall.

"Yang Hai! You dare to overstep the Wen Wu City Lord's authority?" Guo Cheng Hai warned him, intending to give him another route to back up from being this overbearing. Unfortunately, the Elder did not take this chances to retreat, but instead, getting even more furious in his way of talking.

"Guo Cheng Hai, I will shut your place today!" his leads his people to take an action. With the intention to slaughter everyone inside the hall, the troops and bidders clashed against each another. For those patriarchs from other houses, they were temporary safe because most of them were in a cooperative relationship with the City Lord's Faction and also the Militarized Forces, but for those who aren't, their fate is completely dependant on their own.

"Kids, I'm sorry but please leave this place. I don't want any of the people from Seven Star Sect is injured inside of my establishment. Tell your master Guo Cheng Hai will come personally to ask for forgiveness for such an ill-treatment when his disciples are here!" Guo Cheng Hai sent the nine of them over at an escape route, before he added another sentence and charged at Elder Yang.

Meanwhile, the auctioneer looted the Converging Qi Fruit into his hand and escaped through a secret tunnel behind where he stands. Guo Cheng Hai did not show any reaction from his sudden action, which means he has all his trust against this auctioneer of his.

"Damn, we're here for the fruit but it ends up becoming a fight." their eldest senior brother said as they escaped, but soon, even their route ahead was being blocked by the incoming soldiers, and they were forced to fight. It wasn't a threat for a cultivator like his eldest senior brother, Han Gen who was at his 7th Stage of Inner Qi Fighter, but when one was being surrounded by over twenty 3rd to 4th Stage Inner Qi Fighter, their path of retreat become even harder.

"Second, third, protect the others as we retreat." the eldest senior brother ordered his two junior brothers in the similar cultivation strength like his to fight while the other retreat, but unexpectedly, Zhang Wu Ji steps forward with the Iron Ruler in his hand.

With the assistance of Lone Star Sword Art and also Three-Wave Sword Art, Zhang Wu Ji's each swing with the iron ruler not only created one, but two air blades to attack at the incoming enemies. Added with the attraction to obtain more Strands of Inner Qi from those he beaten, it would be a fool for him to not fight them but retreats.

And against everyone expectation, Zhang Wu Ji was the one to make a killing. Each of his swing till turns a soldier to kiss the ground passionately, as he steps forward to chase his targets. Looking at such a behavior, the others suddenly remembered that their eighth brother was suffering from this treatment when their junior still waiting for his entrance test.

Like a hurricane attacking forward instead of upwards, Zhang Wu Ji took the lead to an attack and charged at the crowd of fighting soldiers. Although some of his swings accidentally hit some other random bidders, it did not stop him from continuing to charge forward.

In the eyes of the others, the youngster with a strength to lift up a close to 20 kilograms Iron Ruler and still use them like a bamboo stick was an amazing feat which nobody can perform it without years of practice. And what is the age of Zhang Wu Ji? He was barely fifteen and a half years old up to date!

Hiddenly but sure, Zhang Wu Ji is smiling in his heart.

"Got 1 Strand of Qi at last!" he defeated a total of 25 4th stage fighters and received an increase of 1 Strand in his body. But that doesn't mean it's over. It boosts his settled mind further and hunts for the soldiers instead. Looking at how ferocious is the disciple from Seven Star Sect, Elder Yang and Guo Cheng Hai both stopped fighting.

"Brat! How dare you challenge the might of our faction! This was your greatest mistake! I will personally teach your master a lesson after I'm done with you guys! Let me see how strong are you against a 15th Stage Inner Qi Warrior like me!" the person called Yang Hai strength were something not everyone can compare with, but the word teaching their master a lesson seems to be slightly too far from his reach.

"Oh!" a loud voice came from the outside of the Auction Hall, and on the next second, four swords about two meters in length cut through the four walls covering the whole building, and with two more swords came into the building they completely lift the roof portion of the building above, allowing lights to shine into the Auction Hall.

"It seems like myself, Liang Tian, are too quiet lately." the headmaster of Seven Star Sect personally made his appearance in the Wen Wu City, in order to protect his disciples and also teach a certain person some lesson for overconfident with his mere ranks.

"Master!" the nine of them quickly bowed at their master. This is also the first time Zhang Wu Ji look at his master's might and strength as a well known Inner Qi Lord, in his 62nd Stage. He was stepping on a sword about three meters in the length and half a meter wide, making him floats on the sky as he can fly.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

"Master can fly!" Zhang Wu Ji was amazed by what he has seen. This was the second time he sees somebody riding on top of a sword. The first time was when he just transmigrated into this world almost two months ago.

"Guo Cheng Hai pay respect to his benefactor, thank you for the grand arrival at this humble auction store and also please forgive Cheng Hai for not having the ability to properly protect the nine young master senior from those with ill intention!" he quickly kneeled as he faced the direction where Liang Tian is idling in the air.

"Hahaha, why mention those little gestures again. It wasn't much, wasn't much. Do not take that little gesture too seriously." Liang Tian laughed as he accepted the gratitude Guo Cheng Hai shown. He soon turned his attention to his nice lovely disciples, and talk to them.

"What do you think about the overbearing manner shown by that lowly elder?"

"Atrocious and overconfident at his own strength. He may have the ability to do what he likes here, but when it came to handling master's anger, he might be the first to vanish before master shown himself in Wen Wu City. Since he was caught red-handed in the auction the moment he finished his sentence, his death is inevitable.

"Yang Hai, since you were so confident on your own strength, how about I give you a chance? Fight against my nine disciples alone. If you managed to walk past the Humble Hall of Treasure's entrance, I will ignore what you've said earlier, and even pay you back 10 Million Gold Coins as compensation for my disciple's immature manners."

"But if you don't, I hope you have a coffin readied for yourself!" with a wave of a hand after he finished his sentence, the rooftop that was supported by the six swords were thrown away out of the city, and preparing a better stage for him to observe their fight.

"Why will I be afraid with your nine disciples that only three of them were in their 7th Stage of Inner Qi Fighter? You better prepare nine coffins for them instead!" Yang Hai loss his temper, and charged at the nine disciples instead of escaping.

"Lone Star Sword Art!" the eldest, second, and third waved their sword and face the attack of Yang Hai head-on. The clash pushes the three to a retreat, but Yang Hai's palm did not end up unscathed either. Blood flows from his palm and drips down at the wooden floor below their feet.

The fourth and eighth charged with their weapon, and in a split movement, they activate the confinement wheel against the elder and restricts all his movement. The fifth and sixth sister attacked, but even after restriction Elder Yang's strength is far above the nine of them, thus he easily destroyed the first wheel and deflected the two swords with his own.

Charging his attack as his fellow brother and sisters is fighting, the seventh activates his Seven Sealing Swords ability and strikes at the elder Yang with seven flashing lights! The attacked strikes his four limbs, and it was lucky the attack on his head, chest, and crotch was missed because of his lack of controls.

"Good!" their master Liang Tian and the owner of the Humble Hall of Treasure praised the seventh for his decisive attack. This was what each of his disciples needs in their heart, a will that allows them to be decisive, and a mind that made them deadlier than anyone else!

With all eight disciples has taken their move, only Zhang Wu Ji was left. He was also the only one holding a weapon different from the others. It was an Iron Ruler instead of a sword, and it was a heavier weapon on top of that. In the eyes of most of the people, his choice of weapon is ridiculous, but none of them will say so at this moment after they see how he battered the soldiers by using that Iron Ruler like a bamboo stick.

"Which one will you choose, if you're going to be battered by a youngster? Iron Ruler that weight almost 20 kilograms or a bamboo stick with the weight of fewer than 200 grams?" it was an obvious choice no matter how one will think.

"Master, please forgive Wu Ji for not learning his art properly, it may be seen ungraceful when I fight." Zhang Wu Ji bowed at his master's direction before he calmly took his step forward. That little polite gestures gave Elder Yang a split second to prepare himself, pops a Wound Mending Pill, and held his sword properly, but it gave the public a respectful gaze at Zhang Wu Ji for his elegant yet convincing manner.

Relaxed and calm, he simply swings his Iron Ruler three times, leaving six air blades flying across the air and strikes at Elder Yang without any warning! He was thrown backward for five steps before he stopped, but another two air blades followed. He slashed in a slanted direction, cutting the two air blades without difficulties, but it gave Zhang Wu Ji a chance to executes the Advance version of Lone Star Sword Art!

The beginner achievement that all his other senior brother and sister were at enables them to projects a blinding star when they executed the Lone Star Sword Art. The strength it brought is immense and threatening, able to defeat the opponent's confidence before it clashes.

When their mastery reaches the intermediate achievement, the Lone Star Sword Art can be executed freely, and the strength of the attack was doubled compared to the beginner achievement. This achievement was only held by his eldest senior brother at this moment, taking the position of the strongest disciple generation in the Seven Star Sect.

But at this moment, Zhang Wu Ji's Advance attack gave everyone presents a shock, because the Lone Star Sword Art executed by him brought the might of a falling star striking at his opponent. The threat brought by the pressure from his attack demolish the seats and decorations surrounding him, and when it reaches the Elder Yang, his weapon was shattered.

A proper sword was destroyed with sheer physical force, leaving the blade, handle, and guards apart on the floor! Zhang Wu Ji's Iron Ruler is domineering enough to use a sword art on a long ruler! If somebody dares to say this was impossible before, it was made possible now!

"Who says a sword strike cannot be made from a bamboo? Who dares to say a palm tightened together to form a blade aren't a blade at all? This was a fact! A miracle that can be achieved with the strength of a cultivator's Inner Qi!"

The elder collapsed with both knees on the ground, begging for a forgiveness. Zhang Wu Ji look at his master's stern expression, and without giving out a reply, the Iron Ruler, which were thought to be blunt, actually beheaded the elder with a decisive swing!

The head was sitting on top of the Iron Ruler's tip before it was thrown at the auctioneer's stand to warn the other soldiers to stop what they were doing and leave this place quietly. It was a simple performance, but the result it achieves were a solid impression that made the position Seven Star Sect hold, ascends to greater heights.

"Liang Tian, how dare you to let your little brats to make a mess in my city?" another huge and bulky cultivator make his appearance. His choice of weapon was a gigantic broadsword of five meters in length, and two meters wide. Only the handle alone was at least 1 meter in diameter. Standing on top of the blade, he speaks with the headmaster at the same height.

"Commander Yang Yi, long time no see." Liang Tian ignored his question but greets him instead. Although the appeared person was also in the same cultivation as he does, it did not give him a sense of threat, because he was too familiar with the attitude of this person before him!

"Are you the brat that just happened to handle the pest of my Militarized Forces?" Yang Yi's voice becomes a gigantic bell covering the nine disciples, as he questioned. Liang Tian did not make a move, because it wasn't an issue for him at all.

"Dear Commander, this junior indeed the person that kills the Elder, kindly reprimand this junior alone, and please leave my other seniors." Zhang Wu Ji answered. He did not kneel before the commander, but instead, bowed at him with a straight 90 degrees posture.

"Heroic. Young. Well Mannered. Liang Tian, it seems like your new disciple is quite a good seed! I am envious of you!" he turned his words to the headmaster, and each of his words came out as a praise to the youth.

"Guo Cheng Hai!" he summoned the owner of the Humble Hall of Treasure.

"Yes, commander Yang, please give your order." Guo Cheng Hai immediately replied.

"Unnoticed of my eyes, the little Yang Hai was actually such a disappointment. Your loss will be repaid in the double, and do not hesitate to call these monkeys to help with the repair. Do you understand?" Yang Yi completed his sentence towards Guo Cheng Hai, but at the ending of his sentence, it was directed to each soldier that was still standing in the vicinity of Humble Hall of Treasure.

"We understood Commander's order!" All of them, included Guo Cheng Hai kneeled on one knee are answered simultaneously.

"Good, disperse, or I will charge everyone here for the intention to rebel against the Wen Wu City Lord!" he waved his hand to disperse the innocent public and awaits the location to be cleared.

It did not take too long for the crowd to disperse, and when only the soldiers, Liang Tian, Yang Yi, Guo Cheng Hai, and the nine disciples were left, the auctioneer finally crawled from his hiding spot.

"Master, this is the Converging Qi Fruit..." he presented the fruit to Guo Cheng Hai. Without further ado, Guo Cheng Hai passed the fruit to Zhang Wu Ji, and added;

"This was my gift for such issue happened in my establishment. I understand you may feel like rejecting this gift, but listen to me, I will not be stingy towards the disciples of my benefactor, in fact, I want each of you to have some of this small gift as well." he took out another few boxes in his hand, and distributes each of them to every disciple.

Within the boxes were a collection of three healing medicine, namely the Life Chasing Pill, Qi Recovery Pill, and Blood Mending Pill. The three of a set were medicines that only cultivators can use, and each of them wasn't cheaper than the Qi Sensing Pill, but much more expensive.

The moment one entered the world of cultivation, their lowest known currency starts from 1,000 Gold Coins, also worth 1 Qi Sensing Pill. The pill, in fact, the cheapest daily commodities are known in a cultivator's daily life, and without them, trading for higher quality treasures cannot be done.

"Let us return, everyone, comes up to my sword, as for the carriage, return as soon as possible to the Sect!" Liang Tian invites all his disciples to ride the sword with him when the carriage shall be on their way behind.

It was an occasional experience for the other disciples, but for Zhang Wu Ji, he was enjoying the first ride.

"I am Fu*king Flying on a sword!" a grin is seen on his face as they went on their way.
