The battlefield was still burning with tension—3 versus 9. Shaurya stood calmly, facing the furious Huo Ling, his aura exploding with rage.
Shaurya narrowed his eyes and asked the system,
"System, what’s Huo Ling’s level?"
> System: "Huo Ling — Qi Refiner Level 2."
Shaurya was shocked deep inside.
"If I hadn’t remembered about the experience points," he thought,
"then I might have really lost this battle... not only Lost I will definitely Got Killed by this Monster."
But he composed himself and smirked.
"System, how many experience points do I have right now?"
> System: "You currently have 300,000 EXP points."
Shaurya grinned. "Then use them all. Level me up."
> System: "Understood. Initiating breakthrough..."
Shaurya took a confident step forward. Huo Ling did the same. They now stood face to face.
Suddenly, Huo Ling unleashed his aura.
"Oh? You think you’re the only one who is Stronger here? Alright... then let me show you my true power."
> System: "Level Up Initiated!"
Shaurya Cold light Tone,
A powerful energy burst surged from his body as his level shot up from Qi Initiate Level 5 → Qi Refiner Level 1. The ground cracked beneath him, and everyone stepped back in shock. When the light faded, the two figures clashed like two destructive energies —Shaurya and Huo Ling, fists colliding, generating earth-shattering shockwaves.
Without wasting time, the grand elders charged at Xiao Rui and Xiao Lian.
Each of the elders was at Qi Initiate Level 12. It was too much.
Xiao Lian still held her ground, but Xiao Rui was getting overwhelmed, beaten to the ground again and again.
Shaurya noticed it. With a powerful punch, he sent Huo Ling flying and dashed toward the elders.
With blinding speed, he kicked one elder away, pulled out his Meteorite Sword, and with four mighty strikes, he cut down all four grand elders.
Just then, Huo Ling roared with anger and pulled out his massive axe, charging at Shaurya again.
Shaurya turned to Xiao Rui and ordered,
And Charged At Huo Ling , The clash begin Again.
Xiao Rui ran to support Xiao Lian, who was already bleeding, still fighting with unmatched courage.
She cut off one elder’s hand and injured the other three.
Then, She use her ice attack to distract the grand elders
Then, she threw her Ice Sword to Xiao Rui.
He caught it in mid-air and instantly decapitated one elder.
Another elder struck him hard in the stomach, and he coughed blood before being thrown back.
Lian caught her brother just in time.
One of The last grand elder charged at them both, fury in his eyes.
Just as his strike was about to land—SHHHING!
A sword strikes and sliced him in two from middle.
Even Shaurya and Huo Ling turned to look.
The Sword Strike Done by a mysterious boy, cloaked and veiled—the same boy who had silently observed them earlier.
The two remaining elders were stunned.
The boy removed his veil—his skin as crystal-white as jade, silver hair, and silver eyes shining like stars.
He threw the veil like a weapon at one elder and the elder try to deflect it. The moment it hit—BOOM! A massive explosion tore half his body apart.
From the dust, the boy flashed forward and beheaded the other two elders in an instant.
Shaurya Was surprised by this
"Did he really use his viel as a weapon?"
System Replies " Host This Viel is a special Artifact To hide the aura but it also use as a spritual self destructor, the moment he threw he activate its second property so when it it’s the Viel got blasted "!
After hearing this Shaurya was Amazed.
Now, only Huo Ling remained.
He stared, terrified, for the first time in this battle.
Panicking, he repelled Shaurya and created distance, then growled,
"Who are you?! Why are you interfering in my sect’s affairs?"
"Yes... I’d also like to know—who are you, boy?"
The boy replied with overwhelming arrogance,
"I am Wang Tian. I’ve taken an interest in joining this sect. So you have no chance of destroying it."
Everyone was speechless.
Shaurya blinked in disbelief.
"You... want to join my sect?"
"Yes. You are lucky that I, Wang Tian, chose your sect."
Shaurya immediately felt something wasn’t right.
This boy spoke... like someone superior—not just powerful, but ancient.
Just then, the system appeared.

After a moment of disbelief, he smiled proudly and walked up to him.
"Yes! I’m very lucky to have you join us. Welcome to the sect!"
Shaurya handed him a form.
Wang Tian casually replied,
"Sure. I’ll fill it right now."
"Completely ignoring Huo Ling in the background"!
Just as this happened, behind them—
Huo Ling exploded in rage, activating his Berserker Mode.
> System: "Warning! Due to a forbidden technique, Huo Ling’s power has increased x2 — Now at Qi Refiner Level 4."
"How Dare you?To ignore me."
Shaurya raised an eyebrow, Then smile.
Wang Tian noticed his smirk.
Shaurya drew his Meteorite Sword, exhaling calmly, and slowly going towards huo ling in full attitude, Aura Farming.
Huo Ling roared like a beast and charged—mad, wild, unthinking.
And When He appears infront of Shaurya going to hit him with his fist... then, in a flash...
Shaurya’s sword sliced through him like air.
Huo Ling was beheaded.
His body dropped. His head fell separately.
Shaurya stood still, eyes cold.
Then, slowly, he pointed his sword to the sky and head lowered to ground eyes closed and whispered,

He looked toward the sky, lost in thought.
Wang Tian walked up and handed him the completed form.
Shaurya gave him the sect uniform and called,
"Xiao Rui, show him around. Let him pick a room."
Xiao Rui nodded and left with Wang Tian.
Shaurya walked back to his hall.
He sat on his throne with a long breath...
And opened his system again.
