It had to be said: Little Xu, who had taken the Bronze Sword from the mountain, was insanely powerful.
Not only had he won the East Continent Grand Competition, but he had also pinned the Western Continent's champion to the ground and rubbed him into the dirt.
Although the sword carried a Dao Ancestor seal, and only one portion of the seal was lifted every time Xu Ziqing broke through a realm, meaning he could only unleash part of the Evil Sword's power, it was still enough for him to sweep through everyone at the same level.
Many players believed that the one who was invincible at the same level wasn't Xu Ziqing, but the sword!
Some players had once watched him fight with the Bronze Sword and without it. The difference in their strength was like heaven and earth.
Without the sword, he was still extremely strong, but he probably couldn't compare to the other three World Protagonists.
Besides that, as mentioned before, Xu Ziqing's cultivation speed had always been slower than that of the other three World Protagonists.
He was at least one major realm behind.
Against an extraordinary existence like Han Shuangjiang, whose cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds every day, he had even once fallen two major realms behind.
He seemed to have been born for the first two rounds of the East-West Continent Grand Competition.
That was because when the Third Realm East-West Continent Grand Competition began in 1991 of the Xuan Calendar, Han Shuangjiang, who had obtained two Dao Ancestor Inheritances, had already soared to the Fourth Realm. She was already charging toward becoming a Great Cultivator and was ineligible to participate.
At that time, Xu Ziqing had only barely reached the Third Realm, and was merely at the mid-stage of the Third Realm.
