Chapter 183 - 141: Super Sharpshooter
"Swordsman Ling is being too modest," Ji Xinghuo said calmly, his face not displaying the typical arrogance of a victor. "I merely had better weapons."
As soon as he said this, all the swordsmen turned their eyes to the Demon Sound.
Indeed, some people were thinking just that.
Ji Xinghuo had deliberately showcased the power of the Demon Sound, yet he hadn’t used the Star Force in combat, firstly because he didn’t want to reveal too much of his ability and secondly to give Ling Yufei a way out. After all, they were colleagues at the Sword Bureau, and he still had to learn espionage and firearms from her, so he couldn’t afford to sour their relationship.
Sure enough, Ling Yufei’s expression relaxed a bit, but she still seemed somewhat disheartened.
She had always believed she was ready for the Sky Ladder, but facing the one in the last position had resulted in a disappointing defeat.
A swordsman nearby asked, "Are all the Mutants on the Sky Ladder this formidable?"
Many shared a similar curiosity.
If Ji Xinghuo, merely the last on the Sky Ladder, was this strong, it was hard to imagine what the strength of the top hundred would be? The Sword Captain, initially harboring some animosity towards Ji Xinghuo and wanting to defend Yan Xiao, had now abandoned such thoughts.
With Ji Xinghuo’s capability, he was more than qualified to be a Chi Xiao Knight.
