Su Qiannai spoke with a captivating smile, while Wu Tian grew increasingly perplexed.
"What do you mean by that?" he asked, looking at her. "You say you're paying attention to me, but the Divine Doctor Sect isn't. Aren't you part of the Divine Doctor Sect? Aren't you still working for them?"
Su Qiannai smiled. "That's not something you need to know. The situation is very complicated, and you're not qualified to know it yet. So, it's best you remain in the dark."
Wu Tian was naturally displeased upon hearing this.
"This is my business, isn't it? Why am I not qualified to know?" he retorted. "Are all people like you, always thinking you can control everything and therefore looking down on everyone?"
Su Qiannai shrugged. "Perhaps, what you're saying might hold some truth."
"Your strength is too weak, so you're not qualified to know. When your strength is sufficient, what difference does it make if I tell you or not? I'll have to tell you eventually, won't I?"
Wu Tian said in a deep voice, "From what you're saying, are you looking down on me?"
"Do you really think I can still be manipulated by you as I was before?"
Su Qiannai chuckled, covering her mouth. "I didn't say that, but even if I didn't, the reality is probably the same, wouldn't you agree?"
A surge of anger immediately rushed to Wu Tian's head.
He stood up abruptly, glaring at Su Qiannai. "Do you know what I hate most about you? It's this self-righteous attitude of yours!"
"You think you can manipulate me at will, right? Then let's try it again!"
Su Qiannai showed no particular reaction to Wu Tian's anger.
She simply smiled faintly. "Are you already angry? It seems the young master is still like a child."
"But young master, even if you hate me, what does it matter?"
"No matter how much you hate me, it won't change the fact, will it? Do you really want me to lie and say your strength has far surpassed mine for you to be satisfied?"
A faint glint of lightning flickered in Wu Tian's eyes. He clenched his fists. "We can try right now. I want to see if there's still such a big gap between us after these six months!"
As he spoke, Wu Tian stomped his foot, and a powerful surge of spiritual energy immediately rushed towards Su Qiannai.
"Oh?" Su Qiannai raised an eyebrow upon sensing the strength of the spiritual energy.
She then gently raised her jade-like hand, and the coffee table between them suddenly flew up, blocking Wu Tian's spiritual energy.
In an instant, the coffee table was shattered into pieces.
At the same time, Su Qiannai stood up. She smiled at Wu Tian. "I truly didn't expect that in this short span of six months, your spiritual energy level would reach level five."
"I know you're a full-body spiritual energy user. Your rate of improvement is so fast that it makes me feel inferior."
"Even within the Upper Three Sects, you wouldn't find a second person like that."
Wu Tian said coldly, "There will be even faster times in the future. Sooner or later, I will surpass everyone in your Divine Doctor Sect, and then we can settle all accounts!"
A flicker of surprise crossed Su Qiannai's beautiful eyes.
Soon, she smiled again. "Young master, what you say is truly intimidating. Even I have to admire your courage."
"However, if you think this is enough to challenge the Divine Doctor Sect, then I can only tell you that you're still too naive. After all, you can't even get past me."
As soon as she finished speaking, a sharp phoenix cry echoed!
A surge of spiritual energy immediately emanated from Su Qiannai and rushed towards Wu Tian!
Wu Tian's pupils contracted slightly, and he immediately raised his hands, using his spiritual energy to block Su Qiannai's attack.
Su Qiannai's spiritual energy was incredibly potent. Wu Tian had thought that after reaching level five, he would be able to contend with her. But it was only then that he realized he was still struggling to resist.
Pressure poured into Wu Tian's body layer by layer. His body trembled slightly, and his steps faltered backward.
He gritted his teeth, trying his best to resist, but he was still unable to contend with Su Qiannai.
In contrast to his ferocious expression, Su Qiannai appeared much calmer.
She smiled. "How is it, young master? Can you feel the gap between us now?"
"Although I don't want to discourage you, I still have to remind you that my spiritual energy level is eight, and I am also a full-body spiritual energy user."
"With your current strength, it's completely impossible to defeat me."
"What?!" Wu Tian's heart sank.
This news was utterly astonishing to him.
Su Qiannai's spiritual energy had reached level eight, and she was a full-body spiritual energy user?
With such strength, she was an unparalleled master. How could she possess such formidable power?
Su Qiannai continued to smile. "I know what you're surprised about. I can answer that. I merely utilized a slight advantage I possessed."
"That advantage also exists within you, but you've probably never used it."
"I must remind you that after reaching level five in spiritual energy, each subsequent level of advancement is more difficult than all the previous levels combined."
"If you still expect to cultivate at the same rapid pace as before, it might not be possible."
Wu Tian was covered in sweat, feeling as if his entire body was about to be crushed by the immense spiritual energy.
Yet, his heart was filled with anger. He was unwilling. Why had things turned out this way?
Why was he still being manipulated by others in the end?
No! He could not accept this. His destiny should be in his own hands, not to be manipulated like clay!
It seemed as if flames erupted from Wu Tian's heart. In an instant, golden light blazed in his eyes!
He let out a fierce roar, and the spiritual energy within his body surged at that moment!
"This is..."
Seeing this sudden turn of events, even Su Qiannai couldn't help but be momentarily stunned.
In this instant, a gap appeared. Wu Tian, like a bursting dam, unleashed all his spiritual energy.
The spiritual energy seemed to roar, and then it actually pushed back Su Qiannai's spiritual energy!
"What?!" Su Qiannai, rarely, showed a hint of panic.
Wu Tian flashed forward like lightning, roaring explosively, "Thunder Strike Finger!"
In an instant, lightning condensed at his fingertips, transforming into a brilliant beam of light that struck Su Qiannai directly!
