Under the lead of the Inner Sect Disciple named Lin Xiaoyun, Wang Ruoxie quickly headed towards the Martial Arts Hall.

"Brother Wang, Brother Song Qing was severely injured during a sparring match in the Martial Arts Hall."

Lin Xiaoyun said to Wang Ruoxie.

"What's the name of the person who injured Song Qing?"

A glint of cold light flashed in Wang Ruoxie's eyes as he asked in a deep voice.

"The one who injured Brother Song Qing is Brother Cang Xu."

Lin Xiaoyun replied.

"Cang Xu?"

Wang Ruoxie furrowed his brows slightly, having never heard of this name.

"Brother Cang Xu joined the sect two years ago, during the entrance examination he took first place with a cultivation of the First Layer of Element Transformation Realm, and was hailed as the genius disciple Celestial Sword Sect hadn't seen in ten years."

Lin Xiaoyun continued, "For some unknown reason, although two years have passed, Brother Cang Xu, who possesses Eight-star Swordsmanship Talent and a profound-level ninth-grade bloodline, is still at the First Layer of Element Transformation Realm."

"Many say that Brother Cang Xu's foundation was destroyed, which is why he hasn't been able to break through, and some say that Brother Cang Xu is cultivating an extremely powerful technique, which is why he hasn't advanced his cultivation realm."

"In recent months, Brother Cang Xu has been adventuring outside, and only returned to the sect a few days ago. Unexpectedly, Brother Song Qing had a conflict with Brother Cang Xu in the Martial Arts Hall and was subsequently severely injured."

Hearing Lin Xiaoyun's words, a hint of coldness appeared in Wang Ruoxie's eyes.

Soon, Wang Ruoxie and Lin Xiaoyun arrived at the Martial Arts Hall.

This was Wang Ruoxie's second visit to the Martial Arts Hall. The last time, he came to advance to an Inner Sect Disciple. Although he succeeded, he had a conflict with the stationed elder of the Inner Sect Pavilion, Fan Wenbo.

This time, however, he was here in anger. If something happened to Song Qing, Cang Xu, regardless of being Celestial Sword Sect's once-in-a-decade genius disciple, would have to pay the price.

Without delay, Wang Ruoxie directly walked into the Inner Sect Pavilion.

He saw a group of people gathered there, whispering among themselves.

Taking a step forward, Wang Ruoxie parted the crowd and saw two familiar figures.

Song Qing lay on the ground, his body covered in blood, his face extremely pale, evidently severely injured.

Bing Ling looked on with a worried expression, tending to Song Qing nearby.

"Bing Ling, feed Song Qing this pill."

Wang Ruoxie took out a third-grade healing pill and handed it to Bing Ling, saying.

Bing Ling nodded, taking the pill and immediately feeding it to Song Qing.

"Ruoxie, you... you've come..."

Song Qing, with some effort, opened his eyes and squeezed out a smile, saying.

"Take care and recover well."

Wang Ruoxie nodded with a smile, saying.

Then he turned around, the smile on his face vanished instantly, replaced by a cold look.

"Who is Cang Xu."

A cold voice came from Wang Ruoxie's mouth.

Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Wang Ruoxie, everyone shivered, feeling as if they were suffocating.

"I am Cang Xu; are you looking for me?"

At this moment, an indifferent voice sounded, followed by a burly figure coming over from the crowd.

"Did you injure Song Qing?"

Wang Ruoxie's gaze fixed on Cang Xu, saying.

"Yes, this weakling was too frail. I easily defeated him with a single punch, utterly unimpressive."

Cang Xu glanced disdainfully at Song Qing, speaking.

Hearing Cang Xu's words, a trace of anger flashed in Song Qing's eyes, yet he was without retort.

Though both he and Cang Xu were in the First Layer of Element Transformation Realm, their strengths were worlds apart.

With just an ordinary punch, he was severely injured by the opponent without a hint of resistance.

He really couldn't understand why the opponent's strength was so terrifying; in his view, even Wang Ruoxie, when at the First Layer of Element Transformation Realm, might not possess such formidable strength.

"You must be Wang Ruoxie then."

With a haughty expression, Cang Xu swept a glance over Wang Ruoxie and spoke again, "In the days since I've returned to the sect, I've heard quite a few rumors about you."

"They say you're the top in this year's entry examination, and I was the top in the examination two years ago. Given this, would you dare to fight me?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ruoxie cast a calm glance at Cang Xu, saying, "Make your move."

"It would be better if you attack first; because if I strike first, you won't have any chance, as before me, you and that weakling Song Qing are indistinguishable, both utterly unimpressive."

Cang Xu spoke with a look of disdain.

"You punched Song Qing into severe injury, so I will also use a single punch. I wonder if you'll prove to be as unimpressive as you claim others are."

Wang Ruoxie calmly smiled and said to Cang Xu.

"Seeking death."

Wang Ruoxie's words made Cang Xu furious.

He rushed forward abruptly, arriving in front of Wang Ruoxie in an instant, and then punched directly.

Although he was only at the First Layer of Element Transformation Realm, his true strength far exceeded his cultivation realm. If he unleashed his full strength, even against a martial cultivator at the Element Transformation Realm Late Stage, he could put up a fight.

A hint of cold, malicious delight appeared in Cang Xu's eyes, as he seemed to foresee the scene of Wang Ruoxie being killed by his punch.

Yet at that moment, his expression froze entirely.

Because his fist was actually caught by Wang Ruoxie and could not advance at all.

No matter how much force he exerted, even when mobilizing all his primordial power, he couldn't break free.

"Is this your strength?"

Wang Ruoxie looked at Cang Xu with a tinge of irony, speaking.

"Seems I underestimated you, but you still must die."

A glint of cold malevolence flashed in Cang Xu's eyes, and as his words fell, an immensely violent aura suddenly surged from him.

In the next moment, to the horrified stares of the onlookers, Cang Xu's body became covered in a layer of golden substance.

Moreover, the fist caught by Wang Ruoxie grew several times larger, transforming into a golden giant fist.

A terrifying force radiated, shaking Wang Ruoxie's hand away.

"Special constitution?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Ruoxie's eyes. He did not expect that apart from Xiao Ningyue, there was someone else in Celestial Sword Sect with a special constitution.

It's known that, compared to bloodline power, special constitutions are even rarer to inherit but also much stronger.

Where there may be one bloodline martial cultivator in ten thousand, there might not be a single person with a special constitution among them.

Now he somewhat understood why Cang Xu's strength far exceeded his peers; evidently, it was due to his special constitution.

Even the fact that he hadn't advanced in cultivation in two years seemed to be related to his special constitution.

"Die!"

Cang Xu shouted violently as he punched out once more.

Having unleashed the power of his special constitution, his strength had increased by dozens of times. This punch, even for a martial cultivator at the Element Transformation Realm Late Stage, would not be easy to handle.

The golden fist, carrying a terrifying power, distorted the space as it passed by.

The Golden Spirit Body not only provided him with powerful offensive capabilities but also made his physical defense far superior to martial cultivators of the same level, becoming resistant to blades and immune to both water and fire, with ordinary attacks having little effect on him.
