Chapter 2444: Chapter 2444: Fame Gained from a Single Battle

The duel between the Wushuang Immortal King and the Chiyang Immortal King, these two new and old prodigies, ended with Fang Bai’s victory.

Afterwards, Liuyan Fairy and Feng Nie Fairy led Fang Bai to his Immortal Residence.

Meanwhile, the severely injured and unconscious Chiyang Immortal King was taken back to his Immortal Residence to recuperate by the Qingyan Immortal King.

The next day, this news spread throughout the Golden Crow Palace.

As a result, Chiyang Immortal King became the laughingstock among the disciples of Golden Crow Palace, while Fang Bai’s ability to challenge across levels was praised by many disciples.

Some of the prodigies of Golden Crow Palace, who had a good relationship with Chiyang Immortal King and were of similar strength, were eager to challenge Fang Bai.

Their motive was not merely to avenge Chiyang Immortal King, but to seize the opportunity of defeating Fang Bai to gain fame.

After all, Chiyang Immortal King was the most valued disciple of Vice Palace Master Yanshi Immortal Emperor and one of the youngest and most outstanding prodigies of Golden Crow Palace before Wushuang Immortal King joined. If they managed to defeat Wushuang Immortal King, they would surely gain renown throughout Golden Crow Palace.

The prodigies of Golden Crow Palace, both male and female, were young in age, each with their own pride, and never easily conceded to others. In their youthful impulse, they only thought about defeating Fang Bai to gain fame, without considering carefully that since Fang Bai was able to easily defeat Chiyang Immortal King, how could he be so easily handled?

In the period that followed, Fang Bai, having just joined Golden Crow Palace, continuously received challenges from the prodigies there.

Fang Bai, without hesitation, accepted all challenges, leaving him almost no leisure time.

However, through victory after victory, Fang Bai proved that his title as the "Wushuang Immortal King" was no empty reputation.

At first, the disciples challenging Fang Bai from Golden Crow Palace were at a cultivation level comparable to Chiyang Immortal King, all of whom were Seventh Grade Immortal King Realm experts.

But when Fang Bai had no opponents amongst the Seventh Grade Immortal King Realm, Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm experts began to challenge him.

Though it seemed somewhat shameful for them to challenge a newly joined junior brother at the Sixth Grade Immortal King Realm, the Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm disciples of Golden Crow Palace no longer cared about that.

They only wished to see if this junior brother, who bore the title of Wushuang Immortal King, could continue his undefeated streak against them.

"A bunch of Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm guys challenging a Sixth Grade Immortal King Realm junior brother is truly shameless!"

"Even if they manage to win against the junior brother Wushuang, it still lacks honor!"

"To defeat the junior brother Wushuang, they are beyond shame! I truly feel embarrassed for them!"

"Junior brother Wushuang, don’t pay any attention to them!"

"How about senior sister helps you take on their challenges? Senior sister is also at the Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm!"

...

When a group of Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm experts challenged Fang Bai, many female disciples from Golden Crow Palace, including Liuyan Fairy and Feng Nie Fairy, stood up for Fang Bai and advised him not to mind them.

"I appreciate all my senior sisters’ kindness! However, only by fighting the strong and pushing one’s own potential to the limit can real progress be achieved. So... I accept the challenges from all my senior brothers and sisters! Although my cultivation level is not as high as theirs, defeating me won’t be that easy!"

Smiling, Fang Bai tactfully declined the advice of the female disciples of Golden Crow Palace, stating his stance of "whoever wants to fight, then let us fight".

After Fang Bai’s words spread, the disciples of Golden Crow Palace were in an uproar.

Some said that their junior brother Wushuang faced the challenges of older brothers and sisters without fear and with courage, and this attitude was worth learning from.

Others said that junior brother Wushuang had become somewhat arrogant and complacent, thinking he was unmatched among the Seventh Grade Immortal King Realm.

Yet more disciples were waiting to see the jokes that might befall their junior brother Wushuang.

The battles between Fang Bai and some of the prodigies from Golden Crow Palace not only drew the attention of thousands of disciples but also caught the interest of some higher-ups, including Yanshi Immortal Emperor.

"I never expected that the direct disciple I just accepted would possess such formidable combat strength! Not only is he unrivaled in the same realm, but he has also defeated all his peers in the Seventh Grade Immortal King Realm... This already classifies him as a genius!"

Under Yanshi Immortal Emperor’s command, there were originally four prodigies who stood out among the high-ranking members of Golden Crow Palace, envied by others. Now, with another genius acquired, he was naturally very excited.

Although he did not believe in Fang Bai’s victory over the Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm experts, Yanshi Immortal Emperor did not stop it.

Yanshi Immortal Emperor was also curious to see how his newly accepted direct disciple would perform against Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm experts, who were two small realms ahead.

Of course, Yanshi Immortal Emperor knew that Fang Bai’s repeated victories over many senior brothers and sisters had already made some disciples of Golden Crow Palace displeased, and they might seize the opportunity to seriously injure him during the duels.

Therefore, Yanshi Immortal Emperor decided to secretly observe when Fang Bai fought against the Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm disciples, ready to intervene if Fang Bai was overwhelmed, to prevent him from suffering severe wounds.

Fang Bai’s first battle against an Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm expert was with Qingyan Immortal King.

It was said that Qingyan Immortal King challenged Fang Bai because Fang Bai had injured his friend Chiyang Immortal King too severely, prompting Qingyan Immortal King, in his anger, to seek justice for his friend.

As the chief disciple under Yanshi Immortal Emperor, possessing the Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm and the Innate Fire Spirit Root, Qingyan Immortal King ranked third in the combat power list of Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm in Golden Crow Palace.

Among all Eighth Grade Immortal King Realm disciples in Golden Crow Palace, only the two prodigies personally transmitted by the Palace Master, Golden Crow Immortal Emperor, held the strength to defeat Qingyan Immortal King.

Therefore, the battle between Qingyan Immortal King and Fang Bai was considered an asymmetrical contest.

Some disciples of Golden Crow Palace even believed that if Fang Bai could withstand one blow from Qingyan Immortal King, he would be honorable in defeat.

On the day of the duel between Fang Bai and Qingyan Immortal King, the enormous valley within Golden Crow Palace Mountain was filled with the clamor of over ten thousand disciples from Golden Crow Palace, who gathered atop the surrounding mountain peaks to await their arrival.

Among these over ten thousand disciples of Golden Crow Palace, all were of the Sixth Grade Immortal King Realm and above, including some Ninth Grade Immortal King Realm experts.

Half of them were female disciples, most of whom came to support Fang Bai.

Fang Bai’s handsome appearance, exceptional ability to challenge across levels, and limitless potential in the Immortal Dao drew jealousy from many male disciples of Golden Crow Palace, but also won the hearts of many female disciples.

"Junior brother Wushuang, senior sister supports you!"

"Don’t worry about severe injuries, senior sister will personally take care of you!"

"I have healing treasures with me. If you get injured, senior sister will give them all to you!"

"Although I’m not a prodigy, I do have a Primordial Yin Physique! After you recover, we can cultivate together and improve together!"

...

When Fang Bai, dressed in white, appeared in the valley, the many female disciples present burst into cheers.

And seeing how Fang Bai was so favored by the female disciples of the palace, many male disciples’ faces turned dark.
