As she spoke, she suddenly turned to Yun Jiuyi and asked curiously:
"Elder Yun, in your opinion, does Xu Taiping stand a chance of winning his challenge against Half-Immortal Battle Dong Cang?"
Yun Jiuyi smiled helplessly.
"You really have stumped me with that question."
After a moment's thought, Yun Jiuyi suddenly grew solemn.
"Judging by how Xu Taiping withstood the self-detonation of Liu Dong Cang's Nascent Soul with his bare flesh without suffering any injury, his physique should already be on par with the Heaven-Hunting Great Sage's."
Jiang Shuoxue looked incredulous.
"How old is he? And he has already tempered his physique to the level of the Heaven-Hunting Great Sage?!"
Sect Leader Jiang Fu folded his arms and frowned.
"In this cultivation world, age is the most useless thing of all."
Yun Jiuyi agreed.
"Back in the day, didn't outsiders marvel at our cultivation speed, Sect Leader, as though we were celestial beings?"
Jiang Fu suddenly looked thoughtful.
"But Dong Cangzi, that old fox, has survived eight Great Dao Strifes undefeated. It really is hard to say whether Xu Taiping can succeed this time."
Yun Jiuyi nodded in agreement.
"Never mind someone in the Half-Step Half-Immortal Realm-even a true Half-Immortal powerhouse could hardly claim any certainty of victory when challenging Dong Cangzi."
Xiao Huang, who had remained silent all this time, also spoke up.
"The Taiping Sword Champion was a little too hasty."
He added:
"If he challenged Dong Cangzi after gaining experience on the Heaven-Demon Battlefield, his chances would be much greater."
In a rare departure, Jiang Shuoxue disagreed with Xiao Huang's view.
"I think timing matters more than preparation."
"If the timing is wrong, all the preparation in the world will be in vain."
At these words, a rare look of pure admiration appeared in Jiang Fu's eyes,
