Senior Brother Gao Sheng Ruthlessly Thrashes Ling Ye

The senior members of the 'Nine Provinces Number One Group' chuckled good-naturedly while looking at Song Shuhang with pity.

--The arena is only this short, yet Song Shuhang, with his current Third-Grade- rank cultivation, still fell over after trying to do a somersault. This is definitely not cultivation!

"Wait a minute, am I seeing things?" At this moment, Northern River's Loose Cultivator rubbed his eyes.

He hadn't noticed it before, but now he suddenly realized that his young friend Song Shuhang was faintly radiating 'starlight'. Was this a symbol only found on cultivators who were about to open the Third-Grade First Meridian, the 'Starlight Meridian,' or who had already opened it?

Third-Grade?

Are you kidding me?!

The last time I met my friend Song Shuhang was before the Hand Tractor Race, during the Chu Household's Immortal Severing Platform Battle.

At that time, my friend Song Shuhang used a special technique to transform into the Chu Household's "Chu Chu Girl" and broke through to the Second-Grade Realm during the Immortal Severing Platform Battle.

How long has it been since the Immortal Severing Platform Battle? Young Friend Song has already opened up all eight Dantian and survived the Second-Stage Lightning Tribulation?

[Am I seeing things?] Northern River's Loose Cultivator nudged the Medicine Master beside him. "Medicine Master, look at Shuhang's cultivation level, what level is he at again?"

Ding ding ding ding~~ The Medicine Master turned his head, and the little bells on his head kept ringing.

Northern River's Loose Cultivator: "..."

The Medicine Master said, "It's the Third-Grade Realm. Judging from Young Friend Song's aura, he should have just broken through recently."

"This speed of advancement is simply terrifying," Northern River's Loose Cultivator. "I'm completely shocked."

Medicine Master: "..."

--Holy crap, he was the one who was most shocked, okay?

Back then, it was he who went to find his friend Song Shuhang in June, and then traded a 'Poison Dragon Grass' with him, and exchanged it with Master Profound Principle for a copy of the <Vajra Foundation Fist> and the <True Self Meditation Scripture>, guiding his friend Song Shuhang onto the path of cultivation.

Before long, young friend Song Shuhang had already cultivated to the Third-Grade Realm.

The Medicine Master is still figuring out how to achieve a perfect advancement, so that when he reaches the Fifth-Grade, his pills will have Seven-Dragon Patterns. Medicine Master's only at the Fourth-Grade Realm now, damn it!

"That's strange. Are the aptitudes of these 'Young Friend of Seven Dao Titles' really that good?" True Lord Dustfall asked in confusion.

Just then, Young Master Phoenix Slayer adjusted his glasses, the lenses reflecting a gleam of wisdom. "I think I already know the answer."

"What did Young Master Phoenix Slayer guess?" Northern River's Loose Cultivator asked curiously.

Fairy Lychee: "Fellow Daoist Phoenix Slayer and young friend Song Shuhang have switched bodies several times, so you must know some secrets, right?"

Young Master Phoenix Slayer pushed up his glasses again and said calmly, "Look, over there by the film crew, that white-haired Daoist priest eating fruit, do you see him?"

"That Daoist priest... is there anything strange about him?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he is the legendary Transmission Maniac, Daoist Horizon," said Young Master Phoenix Slayer. "Therefore, there is only one truth behind Song Shuhang's rapid increase in power!"

The fellow Daoists, including Northern River's Loose Cultivator, Fairy Lychee, Medicine Master, and True Lord Dustfall, all exclaimed in unison, "He was infused with pure internal energy by the Transmission Maniac, causing his cultivation level to advance by leaps and bounds?"

"Absolutely," said Young Master Phoenix Slayer.

True Lord Flood Dragon Overlord: "That's right, it is indeed Horizon. I have seen him before. Everyone should be careful of their descendants in the future, and make sure they don't run into Daoist Horizon. Otherwise, they will definitely be forcibly transferred their cultivation techniques."

Northern River's Loose Cultivator kindly reminded him, "Flood Dragon Overlord Jiaoba, it seems that Daoist Horizon has been staying at your daughter Yu Jiaojiao's villa recently."

"Holy crap!" True Lord Flood Dragon Overlord was stunned for a moment, then immediately began searching for Yu Jiaojiao's whereabouts. He was determined to make sure Yu Jiaojiao was on guard and that she wouldn't be given Empowered Transmission by that Old Daoist Horizon.

In the distance... Daoist Horizon's lips twitched as he silently pulled out a roujiamo (Chinese hamburger) and began to eat it. He was Fifth-Grade Spirit Emperor.

He could hear the chatter of the group of fellow cultivators opposite him, even though they were speaking very quietly. His heart ached.

************************

On the martial arts arena.

Song Shuhang rubbed his face and got up.

Venerable White: "Shuhang, are you alright?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing, it doesn't hurt or itch, it's no big deal," Song Shuhang waved his hand and said.

"Mr. Song, should we use a stunt double for this scene?" the assistant director of the crew asked. This Mr. Song was not only an actor but also an investor in the film.

The price offered was so generous that it was impossible to refuse; be very careful not to break such a lucky charm.

"No need, no need, thank you. It was just an accident. I'll definitely be able to do it much better next time," Song Shuhang laughed heartily and waved his hand.

Besides... if he really doesn't act well, then we can just let the Foreign Monk take his place!

"Shall we start over?" the assistant director asked.

"No problem, let's start again." Song Shuhang dusted himself off and returned to his original position.

Everyone was ready again.

The script supervisor took the clapperboard and snapped it shut.

Director Jacob called out again, "Action!"

The character Ling Ye, played by Venerable White, slowly stepped onto the stage once more. A gentle breeze caressed him, causing his long, black hair and light blue Daoist robe to flutter in the wind.

Director Jacob couldn't help but sigh inwardly—this actor named 'Song Bai' was so handsome that words couldn't describe it. Just put any word related to 'handsome' or 'handsome' on him, and you'd be right!

This is someone who doesn't need acting skills at all; simply walking onto the stage slowly like just now and standing there calmly is enough to immediately elicit screams from countless movie fans.

Director Jacob even dared to bet that if he were to make a 60-minute film, without any plot or script, he would only need to film the actor named 'Song Bai' coming on stage, standing on the stage, and then various breezes blowing, ruffling his long hair and Daoist robe. Filming his handsomeness from every angle for 60 minutes... his film would be a huge hit, guaranteed to be sold out every time, and all kinds of merchandise would sell like hotcakes.

This is terrifying personal charisma.

Not only this actor named 'Song Bai', but also the actor next to him with arms crossed and a cool expression named 'Gu Hu', are both world-class handsome men.

Moreover, Gu Hu possesses the air of a reclusive sage; even without acting skills, he would be a shoo-in for the lead role in any idol drama or movie.

And then there's Song Shuhang, the sugar daddy who just fell to the ground after failing his somersault; he's also a handsome young man.

This film, which he agreed to make because of the 'sky-high salary' he couldn't refuse... might just take his directing career to the next level.

At the very least, the box office numbers will definitely be good after the movie is released.

While he was pondering this, Song Shuhang had already re-entered the frame.

As before, after Junior Brother 1 and Junior Brother 2 finished their conversation, Song Shuhang, playing the role of 'Senior Brother Gao Sheng', coldly said to 'Ling Ye' on the dueling platform: ' Ling Ye, this time I'm going to beat you so badly you won't be able to get out of bed for a month.'

After reciting his lines... Song Shuhang stomped his foot on the ground and leaped high into the air.

This time, Song Shuhang carefully adjusted his posture when he did the somersault in the air.

[Please Senior White, protect me and don't make any more mistakes!] he cried out in his heart.

Then, he performed a perfect 360-degree somersault in mid-air and landed smoothly on the fighting platform.

[Success!] Song Shuhang was actually a little excited—as Third-Grade Cultivator, he was surprisingly excited after completing a 360-degree somersault less than two meters high.

Next... it was Jiang Ziyan's turn to appear as the senior sister [Murong Hua].

Jiang Ziyan, who originally had a slightly sinister air about her, also displayed her unparalleled acting skills when she appeared on stage.

At this moment, she was as gentle as water. Her eyes, which had previously held a slightly mischievous air, were now filled with an intense tenderness and concern. After she appeared, she didn't say anything, but simply gazed tenderly at 'Ling Ye,' played by Venerable White.

Song Shuhang guessed that Jiang Ziyan must have directly replaced the image of Venerable White with 'Medicine Master' in her mind, which is why she had such deep affection and tenderness.

Director Jacob was very satisfied; each of the actors was a very strong performer, far exceeding his expectations.

"Hmph." Song Shuhang snorted coldly, "Ling Ye, this time... which leg do you want to break?"

He never expected that the role of "Senior Brother Gao Sheng" would ultimately fall to him. He should have had Gao Moumou change the lines; this particular line made him feel very uneasy.

"Senior Brother Gao, this isn't our first time dueling in the arena, so let's skip the pleasantries," Venerable White said calmly. "What will we be competing in this time?"

"We've already sparred with swords, spears, fists, legs, and staffs. This time, let your senior brother instruct you on swordsmanship." Song Shuhang's lips curled into a wicked smile.

Without realizing it, he seemed to have gotten a little into character.

The Overlord Shatter Saber, was slowly drawn from its sheath— Overlord Shatter originally did not have a sheath, but this time, for the sake of the performance, a sheath was specially provided. This way, the process of drawing the sword would appear more imposing.

Having been baptized by Heavenly Thunder once again, all the restrictions and formations on the Overlord Shatter Saber were erased, making it even blacker and sharper.

"A sword it is, I'm not afraid of you," Venerable White said in a deep voice, his face resolute, as he took a steel sword from the weapon rack in the arena.

Next comes the scene where 'Senior Brother Gao Sheng' mercilessly torments the protagonist 'Ling Ye'.

Before going on stage, Venerable White had made an appointment with Song Shuhang.

Song Shuhang only needs to use the 'Basic Saber Technique', and after twenty moves, Venerable White will naturally show signs of defeat.

Then, after thirty exciting moves, the Venerable White will be knocked to the ground as a result.

Song Shuhang drew his sword, using Basic Saber Technique.

"Junior Brother Ling Ye, let me teach you how to use a knife!" Song Shuhang the 'Gentleman Travels Ten Thousand Miles' movement technique and instantly appeared beside Venerable White.

A single slash!

Although it was acting, Song Shuhang's slash was near perfect in both angle and force.

The Venerable White instinctively raised his sword to block!

When!

An immense force, beyond Song Shuhang's comprehension, surged from Senior White's blade... and then, Song Shuhang was sent flying...

Senior White, what happened to the promise that Senior Brother Gao Sheng would utterly crush Ling Ye?
