While everyone in the dojo was still discussing Lu Chong, who had burst onto the scene with a single brilliant feat, his challenges did not end there.
The day after defeating Chu Yanlong, Lu Chong issued another challenge to an outstanding cultivator of an even higher realm.
This time, he did not challenge the Chief of the Seventh Heaven. Instead, he settled for the next best thing, pointing his sword at Luo Tian from the main dojo, ranked third in the Seventh Heaven.
It was not that Lu Chong looked down on the Chief's hundred million contribution points. He simply had no confidence at all—why humiliate himself by seeking trouble?
That Seventh Heaven Chief not only possessed a superior Dao foundation, but had also cultivated the Azure Edge Dao Art to the ninth realm.
Lu Chong did not have the slightest advantage before him.
The second-ranked disciple was much the same, only marginally weaker than the chief disciple.
Only Luo Tian, ranked third, had a medium Dao foundation and Azure Edge Dao Art at the peak of the eighth realm.
Only against Luo Tian did Lu Chong stand a chance of winning in one stroke.
And indeed, beneath the gaze of the masses, Lu Chong revealed his ninth-realm Azure Edge Dao Art and only barely secured victory after half an hour of fierce battle.
"If this were reality, with the recovery power of the Auto Cultivation System supporting me, I could have won more easily. Challenging the Seventh Heaven Chief wouldn't be impossible either."
After that battle, Lu Chong quietly summed things up to himself.
In the virtual world, he could only unleash less than half of his true strength, so this was as far as he could go.
"For now, this is enough. No need to be too flashy."
