They seemed to witness a future Martial Forest titan rising powerfully!
In Jianghu, the strong are respected.
Master Fahai used his strength to decisively defeat Murong Fu, who was famous throughout the land.
This respect was well-deserved.
Murong Fu was already so powerful, yet he couldn't withstand a single palm strike from Master Fahai.
How strong Master Fahai was, went without saying.
Everyone in the inn sighed in their hearts.
This Little Monk, whose identity was unfathomable, would likely soon become famous and shake the Jianghu.
He had only just entered the innate ranking a few days ago; this time, his ranking would probably rise significantly!
Just as the people in the inn had predicted, the news of Master Fahai's victory over Murong Fu quickly spread across the four seas.
"Have you heard? That Master Fahai, who just made it onto the innate ranking and was already in the top hundred, has done something astonishing again."
"What astonishing thing?"
"It's said that in an inn, he defeated Murong Fu, who was ranked in the top twenty, with just one palm strike!"
"That's impossible, isn't it? Are you joking?"
"Why would I lie to you? Many people in the inn witnessed it firsthand. Murong Fu even used 'Shifting Stars and Changing Dipper,' but he was still knocked down by Master Fahai's single palm strike!"
"Hiss… It seems this Master Fahai is truly going to become famous throughout the land."
"Isn't that right? A while ago, he was only at the Innate Early Stage, and now he's already at the Middle Stage!"
"Even more impressive is that he actually fought above his Realm, defeating the Innate Late Stage Genius expert Murong Fu with his Innate Middle Stage cultivation!"
"And he only used one palm strike, can you believe it?"
"In that case, will his ranking break into the top ten?"
"Of course he'll enter the top ten!"
"Among the current top ten, who can defeat Murong Fu, who used 'Shifting Stars and Changing Dipper,' with a single palm strike?"
"This honor is well-deserved!"
"Fifteen years old, Innate Middle Stage, entering the top ten of the innate ranking, it's simply unbelievable."
As this shocking news rapidly spread throughout the Jianghu, Murong Fu completely became a stepping stone on Master Fahai's path to rise.
Murong Fu came from a prestigious family, was the heir of the Murong family, had profound family learning, and exceptional talent, making him a well-known Prodigy.
His prestige in the Jianghu was extremely high, almost everyone knew him.
But now, his reputation had become a stepping stone for others to reach the top.
Master Fahai stepped on his shoulders, subtly showing the momentum of a newly rising legend.
At only fifteen years old, he was already at the Innate Middle Stage and had entered the top ten of the innate ranking!
Entering the heavenly pride ranking was almost a certainty.
It was only a matter of time.
Meanwhile, in an inn.
A Young Master dressed in white, with a graceful demeanor, held a folding fan and quietly listened to the conversations of the tea guests around him.
A hint of interest appeared in his eyes as he carefully listened to others discussing the young monk named Master Fahai.
Very interesting.
This Young Master in white was none other than Shangguan Haitang, the Dragon Guard Villa's Xuan-character No.1 secret agent, disguised as a man and ordered to investigate Master Fahai's background.
The strength and talent Master Fahai displayed were indeed shocking.
However, what was more thought-provoking was that before he defeated Zhaixing Zi, there was no trace of him in the Jianghu.
He was like a meteor that suddenly streaked across the night sky, dazzling and brilliant.
Was he alone, without a backer?
Or did their intelligence have a major oversight?
Haitang furrowed her brows slightly, falling into deep thought.
In any case, the achievement of defeating Murong Fu with just one palm strike was enough to warrant serious attention.
What's more, he was not only young but also won by fighting above his Realm, at only fifteen years old!
A true young Prodigy!
If they overlooked this person due to carelessness, it would be a significant loss for Dragon Guard Villa.
Master Fahai was indeed worth Haitang personally going to meet him, getting to know him, and trying to win him over.
Even if he couldn't become a member of Dragon Guard Villa, they could at least get acquainted first and ascertain his depth.
Haitang made up her mind, a smile appearing on her Face.
Tianji Tower would probably look bad this time.
"The ranking and the actual gap are too big."
Shangguan Haitang whispered.
Although Dragon Guard Villa was also good at intelligence gathering, in this aspect, Tianji Tower was clearly superior, almost surpassing Dragon Guard Villa.
However, this time, Tianji Tower would probably make a fool of itself.
As a member of Dragon Guard Villa, Haitang was naturally happy to see such a situation.
Soon, Tianji Tower also received relevant news.
Inside Tianji Tower, the Intelligence Elder rubbed his forehead helplessly.
"It's him after all."
Master Fahai, at the Innate Middle Stage Realm, defeated Murong Fu—an Innate Late Stage expert!
This strength was enough to enter the top ten of the innate ranking!
But the problem was, in the most recent innate ranking assessment, they had ranked Master Fahai at the hundredth position!
Not only did they underestimate his Realm, but they also mistakenly judged him to be at the Innate Early Stage, which was a huge mistake!
Looking back at the history of Tianji Tower, such a serious error was rare.
It was absurd that a strong person who could defeat Murong Fu was placed at the bottom of the list!
Did Master Fahai just Breakthrough?
But that wasn't very likely either.
The only explanation could be—Tianji Tower's intelligence had made a mistake!
Such low-level errors rarely happened, and once they did, they became a laughingstock for everyone after dinner.
Tianji Tower had completely lost Face this time.
The Intelligence Elder clutched his head in distress.
In fact, he really wanted to clarify to the world: We are not wrong.
Perhaps Master Fahai had just been promoted not long ago?
Although ordinary people couldn't advance from Innate Early Stage to Middle Stage in a short period of time.
But Master Fahai was not an ordinary person!
He was the Personal Disciple of the Shaolin Abbot, how could he be measured by common sense?
The Intelligence Elder had a strong impulse to reveal Master Fahai's identity.
Unfortunately, Shaolin Temple was unwilling to disclose his background, so he could only give up.
Although Tianji Tower had profound foundations and powerful forces, it would never easily provoke Shaolin.
As one of the two great pillars of the Jianghu, Shaolin was not only a Martial Arts Holy Land but also filled with experts.
Its Sect Leader, Abbot Taixu, was a Heavenly Human Realm expert!
The Four Divine Monks under his command were all Great Grandmasters famous throughout the Jianghu!
And there were eighteen Arhats stationed there, each of whom was a Grandmaster Realm expert!
And this was only the apparent strength.
According to Tianji Tower's secret report, there were also three Du-generation Elders hidden in Shaolin's back mountain.
They were Du'e, Du'nan, and Undergoing Tribulation, all suspected to possess Heavenly Human Realm cultivation!
Four Heavenly Human Realm experts!
Looking at the entire Martial Forest, which School could have such a luxurious lineup?
In addition to the older generation of top experts, the younger generation also had outstanding figures like Wuhua and Master Fahai.
Such a profound foundation was unmatched.
Whether it was Cihang Jingzhai, Mingjiao, or Azure Dragon Society, none could contend with it.
Although Tianji Tower had some strength, it did not dare to easily provoke Shaolin.
At this point, they could only swallow their pride.
This time, they might as well set the ranking higher.
This way, there shouldn't be any more problems, right!
The Intelligence Elder gritted his teeth, picked up his pen, and heavily wrote a line of words on the paper.
Master Fahai, tenth on the innate ranking!
Achievements: Instantly killed Zhaixing Zi with one move, defeated Murong Fu with one palm strike!
After writing, he carefully read it again before putting down his pen with satisfaction.
Tenth place, that was already giving enough Face.
This time, it should be stable, right.
Shaolin should also have nothing to say.
"Someone!"
The Intelligence Elder shouted loudly.
Someone immediately came in to listen to his command.
"Post the ranking!"
At this time, the area outside Tianji Tower was already crowded with people.
