He looked at Wu Tian and said angrily, "Kid, you really have no idea how high the sky is or how thick the earth is!"
"Do you think you're so amazing just because you're a spiritual cultivator? It's fine to show off in front of ordinary people, but in front of me, you're nothing!"
"Let me tell you, I am known as the Xuanming Venerable. Even you, after taking my Xuanming Finger, will only have a dead end!"
"Xuanming Venerable?" Hearing Elder Zhang say this, Wu Tian couldn't help but laugh.
"At your age, you still have such a silly nickname. Aren't you ashamed?"
"You!" Elder Zhang's eyes were about to burst with anger at Wu Tian's mockery.
He said angrily, "You actually dare to blaspheme me!"
"You scoundrel! I must let you witness my power today!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Zhang formed his right hand into a sword finger and pointed fiercely at Wu Tian!
In an instant, a sharp, invisible spiritual energy shot towards Wu Tian like a flying sword.
Sensing the sharpness of the spiritual energy, Wu Tian's expression changed slightly, and he quickly dodged to the side.
The spiritual energy hit the gambling table behind Wu Tian. With a crack, the gambling table was split in half!
The cut was incredibly smooth, as if it had been made by a cutting machine, with not even a single burr!
The gamblers' eyes widened in disbelief at the scene.
They naturally couldn't see the spiritual energy, but they could tell from Elder Zhang's actions that it was him.
But what was this? Wasn't this a scene from a fantasy novel?
Elder Zhang withdrew his hand and snorted, "You're quite quick to dodge."
"If you hadn't dodged, your fate would have been no different from that table!"
Wu Tian was also astonished. This old man was indeed extraordinary. He admitted that he couldn't achieve such a level of spiritual energy release himself.
Seeing that Wu Tian didn't speak, Elder Zhang thought he was scared.
He said proudly, "Why aren't you speaking anymore? Do you know now how foolish it is to offend me?"
Wu Tian took a deep breath and then looked at Elder Zhang, saying, "You do have some skill, but in my opinion, that's all there is to it."
"If you think this makes you my opponent, then I think you're just overthinking it."
"Good kid, you've got a tough mouth!"
Elder Zhang said angrily, "Since that's the case, then I want to see what kind of ability you, a mere youngster, possess!"
With that, Elder Zhang pointed his fingers at Wu Tian repeatedly.
And the sharp spiritual energy shot towards Wu Tian like a madman.
Wu Tian adjusted the spiritual energy within his body, skillfully dodging Elder Zhang's attacks.
He could see the spiritual energy, which whizzed past his body, each one leaving a shocking trace in the air.
When the spiritual energy missed, it all hit the facilities of the gambling arena, slicing all the tables and chairs in half.
The gamblers were terrified, hiding far away, and many even fled.
The sound of cutting continued, and the gambling arena gradually became a mess.
After more than half a minute, Elder Zhang finally stopped his attack and said coldly, "Are you only good at running away?"
Despite the fierce attack, Wu Tian seemed unaffected, his expression remaining calm.
He said lightly, "Since you think you can harm me, why haven't you hit me yet?"
"You!" Wu Tian's mocking tone made Elder Zhang somewhat flustered.
He fired dozens more spiritual energy attacks at Wu Tian, but each one was dodged by Wu Tian, not even touching his clothes.
Elder Zhang was so angry his lungs felt like they would explode.
His technique was called Xuanming Finger, and it was a skill he had always been proud of.
But this situation where he couldn't hit anyone at all began to make his composure crumble.
He couldn't help but roar at Wu Tian again, "Damn it, why don't you just not dodge! As long as you let me hit you once, I'll definitely take your dog life!"
Elder Zhang's words sounded like a child's argument to Wu Tian.
This showed that Elder Zhang was indeed at his wit's end with Wu Tian.
This made Wu Tian feel a bit relieved. If Elder Zhang were as powerful as Su Qiannai, he might have really fallen here today.
He chuckled coldly, "You can't hit people yourself, and now you're blaming me? Why don't you blame yourself for being so incompetent?"
"Such a good thing as spiritual energy, used so stiffly in your hands, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
"Bastard!" Elder Zhang's eyes turned red, and in a flash, another stream of spiritual energy flew out.
But this time, Wu Tian didn't choose to dodge!
Looking at the spiritual energy flying towards him, he suddenly let out a roar!
A powerful spiritual energy erupted from his body, directly shattering Elder Zhang's spiritual energy!
"How is this possible!" Elder Zhang was instantly shocked.
Wu Tian grinned and said, "I didn't dodge this time, but so what? Does that help me?"
"I gave you a chance, but you were useless. You can't blame me for that, can you?"
"How could this happen?" Elder Zhang's shock deepened.
Wu Tian had blocked his Xuanming Finger with just a breath, something he absolutely could not accept.
Hesitation appeared in his eyes as he asked Wu Tian, "Who exactly are you? Are you from an hidden spiritual sect?"
"Hidden spiritual sect?" This new term made Wu Tian feel confused again.
He continued to ask, "Explain yourself. What is a hidden spiritual sect? What do you know?"
Seeing Wu Tian's reaction, Elder Zhang knew he wasn't faking it, and his suspicion grew even deeper.
If he wasn't from a hidden spiritual sect, then he must be a rogue cultivator.
But Wu Tian was so young, how could he be so powerful?
This was completely inexplicable!
As he was thinking, another stream of spiritual light flashed from behind his head.
He exclaimed to Wu Tian in shock, "Could it be that you possess full-body spiritual energy?"
Wu Tian frowned. This old man spoke in riddles, and he couldn't understand what he meant.
He needed to know the secrets of spiritual energy because he felt that there was definitely more to it than met the eye.
But seeing Elder Zhang's demeanor, he knew that if he asked directly, Elder Zhang probably wouldn't answer him.
If that was the case, then he would have to subdue Elder Zhang first and then question him slowly!
With that thought, Wu Tian looked at Elder Zhang and said lightly, "You don't need to ask me so many questions. You just need to know that you are not my opponent."
"If you are not convinced, then you can continue to attack me. I will make you truly convinced."
