Monarch of Time

With just a glance, Shun Long instantly recognized this person as the young master of the Golden Exchange firm, the person who was ranked 4th in the House of Rankings of the Heaven's Dome city, Hu Liu.

This man with blue-colored hair and sword-like eyebrows was the same person who owned the 'Blue-tailed thunder leopard' and had allowed it to attack Little Silver at the entrance of the Golden Exchange firm in broad daylight.

Back then, Hu Liu hadn't chosen to suppress the 'Blue-tailed thunder leopard', and instead had a smile on his face as he observed the 2 magic beasts fighting with each other, almost as if he was watching a play.

And yet, his expression right now as he was about to face an outer disciple of the Holy sect lacked any hints of a smile, and was replaced by a serious and solemn look instead.

Staring at his opponent, Hu Liu seemed to have suppressed his usual arrogance as he cupped his hands and introduced himself

''My name is Hu Liu and I come from the 'Golden Exchange firm' of the Night star continent.''

However, the robust young man in yellow robes opposite to him smiled when he heard this introduction, and after shaking his head lightly he took a step forward and said with a smile filled with mockery

''It doesn't matter who you are since you are getting eliminated here today.

As soon as you are ready you can make your move.''

Hu Liu's expression changed when he heard the mockery and disregard on the robust young man's voice.

After all, in the end, Hu Liu was a person of extremely high status in the Night star continent, the young master of one of the peak powers in the Heaven's Dome city, the 'Golden Exchange firm'!

This was the first time that he had been treated like this and was brushed aside like a random beggar on the streets.

Not only did his opponent not introduce himself, but he even said that he was going to eliminate him without a change in his expression.

To a person like Hu Liu who had never lowered his head before to someone of the same generation, this was an insult that he couldn't swallow. The utter disregard and the ridiculing look in his opponent's eyes was no different than a fishbone being stuck in his throat.

Unable to endure this any longer, Hu Liu raised both of his hands in front of his chest and placed his palms against each other as he shouted in an angry voice

''Earth golem summoning!''

At that moment, Hu Liu's cultivation at the peak of rank 3 exploded outwards while the ground beneath his feet had also started to rumble at the same time. The earth around him started to come together, as it quickly turned into a large golem more than 15m(49ft) tall!

This was a Saint low-grade martial skill that Hu Liu had obtained from the 'Golden Exchange firm', 'Earth golem summoning'!

Of course, this was the only Saint low-grade martial skill that the 'Golden Exchange firm' had, and it was something that they had obtained by chance thousands of years ago.

This martial skill could only be practiced by cultivators who had comprehended the Dao of Earth, allowing them to summon an earth golem at the same cultivation level as themselves.

This golem had terrifying defensive capabilities, and it was almost impossible to be damaged by cultivators at the same level. Additionally, even if this golem was damaged, it was impossible for it to be killed as long as Hu Liu's qi didn't run out!

Without waiting for the robust young man from the Holy sect to respond, after summoning the huge golem, Hu Liu also summoned a thick layer of earth armor around his body, making him look no different than a miniature golem himself.

At the same time, he also took out a shining silver-colored shield from his spatial ring and held it in front of his chest!

This was the full power of the person ranked 4th in the Night star continent, and the reason why Hu Liu had been high in the House of Rankings for so many years!

The robust young man's expression changed slightly when he saw the shield in front of Hu Liu, but he didn't seem to care one bit about the golem that was standing in front of him like a guard.

Of course, as an outer disciple of the Holy sect, how could he not realize that the silver shield in front of Hu Liu was a rank 3 gold grade weapon?

It wasn't just an average rank 3 gold grade weapon either. Instead, it seemed to be very close to reaching the peak of rank 3 as well!

Of course, the robust young man's expression only changed for a single moment, as he turned to look at Hu Liu with that same smile on his face a moment later, before he took out a small snow-white sword from his spatial ring.

This was another peak rank 3 gold grade weapon, while its quality was actually similar to Hu Liu's shield.

Hu Liu wasn't surprised when he saw the peak rank 3 gold-grade sword in the young man's hands.

Although his origins as the young master of the 'Golden Exchange firm' were illustrious in the Night star continent, many disciples of the Holy sect originated from powerful forces as well whose statuses may not be inferior to Hu Liu's own.

Thus, he was already prepared if his opponent were to have a rank 3 gold grade weapon as well, which was why his father had given him this shield to use during the Holy sect's test.

After all, even for the 'Golden Exchange firm' which was one of the top powers even in the entire Night star continent, the number of rank 3 and peak rank 3 gold grade weapons that they had could be counted on two hands.

They only had a single peak rank 3 gold grade weapon which belonged to the head of the 'Golden Exchange firm', while the rest of their rank 3 gold grade weapons actually didn't exceed 10 in number!

Without waiting for the young man of the Holy sect to make the first move, Hu Liu then pointed forward with his shield, as the large earth golem in front of him raised its feet, and ran towards the tall young man in yellow robes in front of it.

The young man of the Holy sect didn't seem flustered by the fact that Hu Liu seemed to have taken the initiative, and instead, a mocking smile was slowly formed on his lips.

Raising his snow-white sword above his head, the young man infused his qi inside it as he said with a casual voice

''Ice Seal!''

A blinding white light instantly enveloped the small white sword, as large amounts of qi left the yellow-robed young man's body, rapidly forming layers of ice around the sword's surface.

At the same time, Hu Liu's earth golem had already closed the distance between itself and the yellow-robed young man, but at the same moment that it clenched its fist and sent its large fist flying towards the yellow-robed disciple of the Holy sect, the yellow-robed young man suddenly slashed the sword forward.

A powerful hailstorm instantly erupted from the sword's surface, instantly enveloping the huge earth golem.

Hu Liu's eyes instantly widened when he saw the scene inside the hailstorm!

The golem that he had summoned using his Saint low-grade martial skill was now trapped in a thick layer of ice, unable to even touch the yellow-robed young man in front of it.

Although its fist was less than 1 meter away from the yellow-robed man, the golem was unable to even move its muscles.

Hu Liu instantly saw his strongest skill being stopped without even inflicting any damage on the disciple of the Holy sect!

And yet, this wasn't the end of it, as the terrifying hailstorm that had already frozen the earth golem in its tracks, started to move towards Hu Liu.

Hu Liu wanted to dodge, but the hailstorm had already covered a third of the arena!

No matter where he went, he would still be trapped inside the hailstorm eventually!

At the same time, his biggest advantage was his own defense. If he backed down now, he might as well give up on the Holy sect's test.

Raising the silver shield in front of him, the blue-haired young man stood rooted on the spot as he actually resisted the powerful hailstorm head-on.

At that moment however, the yellow-robed young man from the Holy sect didn't stay idle, as he dove inside the hailstorm as well.

Sitting in the audience seats, Shun Long narrowed his eyes when he saw this.

Barely 3 breaths of time passed since that moment, as the hailstorm rapidly dispersed revealing the scene inside it.

The yellow-robed disciple of the Holy sect was holding his sword against Hu Liu's neck with a playful look on his face, almost as if he was looking at an ant that he was toying around with.

In less than 3 moves, the young master of the 'Golden Exchange firm', a peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivator, the person ranked 4th in the Night star continent, Hu Liu had actually been defeated.
