Chapter Fourteen: The Vast Desert

  The people around all took a cold breath, especially the young disciples who had just arrived. Seeing the brutal Tian stepping on Hu Lie's foot, they couldn't believe it. This Hu Lie was ranked sixty-fifth in the last disciple competition! Among the young disciples, he was considered to be above average, but now he was being stepped on by someone?

  "Alright, Man Tian brothers!" Xiong Yue stepped forward and said in a low voice. He was afraid that if they continued, Man Tian would take Tiger Jie's life. Although he usually didn't put Tiger Jie in his eyes, once Tiger Jie died, it would inevitably lead to many troubles. Moreover, Tiger Jie had an older brother who was in seclusion, and after coming out of seclusion, he would surely step into the realm of refining his body.

  Man Tian glanced at Xiong Yue, withdrew his foot, let out a cold snort, and looked at Chi Hu who was standing on the side like a wooden chicken. He then turned his head to look at Xiong Yue again and said: "During the disciple assessment, what if one accidentally kills someone?"

  Xiong Yu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly regained his composure. He forced a wry smile and said, "Try to avoid any loss of life!"

  With a fierce glint in his eye, he nodded slightly, trying his best to avoid taking lives, not that he couldn't!

  Chi Hu also understood the meaning behind Mo Tian's words and shuddered all over, his face changing unpredictably!

  "Ah..." Mān Tiān was about to say something, but was interrupted by Xióng Yuè as soon as he opened his mouth. He only heard Xióng Yuè say: "Mān Tiān brother, let's talk over here!" After that, he turned around and walked towards the back. Mān Tiān looked at Xióng Yuè, then glanced at Bǎi Xiāo ér on the side, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Bǎi Xiāo ér, you come too!" After that, Mān Tiān followed Xióng Yuè and walked away.

  While Baixian'er stared blankly at Mo Tian's tall figure, she was dazed and seemed to have not reacted yet. However, as she watched Mo Tian walk away, her lotus steps moved lightly, and she also followed him, leaving behind a trail of exceptionally venomous glances.

  Walking out of the crowd, Xiong Yue brought Man Tian to a corner of the square. After glancing around, he finally hesitated for a moment on Bai Xian'er before saying: "The injury of Brother Man Zhuang is not optimistic!"

  Man Tian's heart tightened, his fists clenched a little tighter, and he said in a deep voice: "What exactly is going on?"

  "At this time, he was still in a coma, his hands and feet were forcibly broken by the Red Dragon, his tendons and bones were broken, and it's likely that he will have difficulty recovering after waking up!" Xiong Yue sighed, his eyes fixed on Man Tian's body, as if examining him, he couldn't imagine that Man Zhuang had ruined his own promising future for a single Blood Severing Dan!

  "Stop right there!!" These four words were like four sharp knives stabbing into Man Tian's heart, his fingernails digging into his palm, and his body trembling violently! He let out a muffled groan, turned around to leave, but was pulled back by Xiong Yue.

  "Don't be impulsive, it's not the right time. If you kill Red Tiger now, it will only bring catastrophe to your tribe! Everything must wait until the disciple assessment!" Xiong Yue said in a low voice.

  Man Tian took a deep breath, and the anger in his heart was suppressed. If not for Xiong Yue's intervention, he would have killed Chi Hu at this moment. But Xiong Yue's words made him regain some sanity. The tribe weighed heavily on his mind!

  "It's actually not impossible to recover if only the tendons and bones are broken..." Baixian'er said in a low voice, feeling the surprised gaze of Mantian. Baixian'er looked down slightly, somewhat lacking confidence, and continued in a low voice: "But...it's just that it's a bit difficult."

  "Baixian'er, speak clearly, how exactly should we treat the barbaric pillar?" Mantian urged, seeing Baixian'er being evasive.

  Bai Xian'er's chest rose and fell, she took a deep breath, lifted her head to look at Man Tian, and quickly said: "Among the fourth-grade ferocious beasts, there is one called Chang Sui. Its blood is a holy medicine for healing wounds. If we have Chang Sui's blood, apply it all over Man Zhuang's body, maybe it can restore his tendons and bones to their original state."

  "Really?" Meng Tian exclaimed in surprise, if it could cure his illness, he would even get the blood of a fourth-grade fierce beast! Moreover, he had never thought that a fourth-grade fierce beast was equivalent to an awakened strongman!!

  "But..." Baixian'er hesitated again, she didn't dare look into Mo Tian's bright eyes.

  "What's wrong?" Meng Tian looked at Bai Xian'er and took a step forward anxiously.

  "This is a rare occurrence in the long years, ordinary people can't find its whereabouts!"

  Bai Xian'er's words undoubtedly poured a bucket of cold water on Man Tian, leaving him stunned in place. Xiong Hong and Xiong Yue on the side also sighed. A fourth-grade fierce beast, not to mention whether it can be found or not, even if it can, how? A fourth-grade fierce beast is equivalent to an awakened strongman! Even if Man Tian can one day enter the ranks of the awakened, then that would be many years later.

  Ten years? Thirty years? Can the barbaric pillar still continue to cultivate at that time? It is necessary to know that cultivators attach the most importance to the time before the age of 50, and the time before the age of 50 is also called the golden age. Even so, it can be said that what kind of cultivation you can reach by the age of 50 determines how high you can stand in the future.

  "But... however, the Hundred Beasts Diagram says that this Long Sui once appeared in the Great Wilderness!" Bai Xian'er said tightly grasping her sleeve, her voice trembling slightly. She didn't want to see Man Tian disappointed, but she also knew that saying these words was equivalent to not saying them at all.

  Xiong Hong and Xiong Yue, two brothers, heard this and sucked in a cold breath.

  The Great Wilderness?

  That ancient forbidden land is filled with mysterious powers of the Great Wilderness? That forbidden land that even Awakened Strong Ones have no way to enter or exit?

  "Great Wilderness!!" Mo Tian muttered in a low voice, his eyes flashing with determination! If he could cure the Barbarian Pillar, even if it meant going through a sea of knives and a mountain of fire, so be it!

  If the Barbarian Heaven knew what the Great Desolate was like, he would know that the Knife Mountain and Fire Sea were nothing compared to it. However, even if he knew how terrifying the Great Desolate was, with his current youthful vigor, he probably wouldn't have much fear.

  After calming down the anger in his heart, Man Tian looked at Xiong Yue and Xiong Hong and said: "There are still a few days left for the disciple assessment?"

  "It's just tomorrow. I heard that this assessment has the participation of young geniuses from three major tribes." Xiong Yue said, but he had also heard about Man Tian's strength from Xiong Hong, so he wasn't too worried.

  Man Tian nodded, and at this time he had stepped into the seventh rank of the Man clan. With his original strength, there were almost no one among the seventh rank who could rival him! Man Tian turned his head to look at Bai Xian'er who was tightly clutching her clothes on the side, and patted her shoulder with his right hand, saying in a low voice: "During the assessment, just follow me and you'll be fine. With me around, no one will be able to hurt you!"

  Bai Xian'er was stunned upon hearing this, her gaze turned to Man Tian, and she felt the confidence contained in his gaze as he looked at her. Bai Xian'er was somewhat bewildered - was this still the same Man Tian from a few years ago who had been thin and frail, with a terminal illness?

  Withdraw your gaze, and look towards the faintly visible mountain peaks in front of you. He said in a low voice: "This time I severely injured Red Tiger, his older brother Red Dragon will certainly come out to help him, but why didn't he appear this time?" Mo Tian wanted to see what kind of strength the person who had severely injured Mo Zhu possessed, and he was also eager to avenge Mo Zhu.

  "After the disciple's trial, Chi Long has gone into seclusion!" Xiong Yue said in a low voice. Once Chi Long comes out of seclusion, it's hard to imagine what level he will have reached.

  Man Tian nodded slightly, deep in thought for a long time. His hands clenched involuntarily. Chi Long, with the White Silver Bloodline, and after this closed-door training, he might have entered the Tempering Body Realm. Before he came out, Man Tian had to go all out to prepare for a life-and-death battle with him!

  "I'm afraid that once he leaves the pass, with his White Silver Bloodline, he will likely become an inner disciple of Xiaoguzong!" said Xiong Yue, his words revealing a hint of worry.

  "Inner Disciple?" Man Tian looked at Xiong Yue with confusion.

  "The division of Xiaoguzong disciples is extremely strict, with four levels: Disciples, Elite, Core, and Inner Gate! And this Inner Gate is the symbol of White Silver Bloodline, only those with White Silver Bloodline have the qualification to become an Inner Gate disciple." Xiong Yue sighed.

  Strength is revered, this is the unchanging law of Nanman since ancient times. In a sect, what's emphasized is bloodline!! Only with a higher bloodline level can one qualify to become a member of the sect who spends a huge cost to cultivate.

  "As soon as Red Dragon becomes an inner disciple, the strong ones in the sect will take him to travel throughout the southern border, capture a powerful fierce beast, and make it his barbaric beast!" Xiong Yue sighed. Ordinarily, a powerful beast is called a fierce beast, while a fierce beast that acknowledges its master from the Barbarian Tribe is called a barbaric beast!

  Nothing in this world is fair! The height of blood determines status! If the core is the pillar of the sect, then the inner disciples are the pillars that hold up the sky for the sect!! They are the objects that the sect cultivates at all costs.

  "If you want to avenge Mo Zhu, you must defeat him before he leaves the pass! Otherwise, once he obtains the Man Beast, your hope of defeating him will become increasingly slim! The white tiger that Xiong Hong rode previously was the lowest grade of Man Beast within the sect, provided for disciples to ride, but this white tiger possessed the power of a seventh-grade Man Warrior! If he were to obtain a second or even third-grade Man Beast, then..." Xiong Yue said up to this point, his face pale, and didn't continue speaking.

  "Brutal beast!!" Mantian clenched his fists tightly, muttering to himself, with an unusually resolute glint in his eyes! No matter what, Mantian would exhaust all means to avenge Brutal Pillar!

  "And besides, you can't even kill the Red Dragon, otherwise, you'll face the revenge of the Red Lion tribe! Your tribesmen will suffer from the crazy attacks of the Red Lion tribe, so, it's hard, too hard to avenge the Barbarian Pillar." Xiong Yue sighed. He didn't want the Barbarian Sky to be blinded by hatred and bring disaster to the tribe.

  His face stiffened, the sharpness in his eyes retracted, and his whole body shook violently. He grunted, saying in a low voice: "I know what to do!"
