Here in the outer sea, even the Eighteen Demon Kings dare not provoke Chongyue True Temple casually. And you dare to challenge the prodigies of my sect? You'll first have to get past me!"
His eyes gleamed brightly as he stared at Zhang Yan and said, "I, Beigong Hao, like you, am a Xuan Guang Practitioner. Let me test you today and see what distinguishes a disciple of the Mingcang Sect."
