Four Directions Pavilion
Cheng Tianfeng stood dumbfounded in the small courtyard, looking up at the bright moon in the sky.
The bright moon hung like a hook.
With only half of its light remaining.
Yet it was exceptionally bright.
Under the moonlight, Cheng Tianfeng's face was pale, his eyes filled with confusion.
An emaciated old man appeared beside him at some unknown time and spoke softly, "Tianfeng, have you figured it out?"
Cheng Tianfeng turned his head to look at the old man, "Uncle Master, I just can't understand why I lost... we are both at the Ninth Layer realm, right? And I possess the strengths of two families, how could I possibly lose to him?"
"There's something odd about him, otherwise, he wouldn't have tamed the Heavenly Dragon Divine Horse."
"Very odd indeed!"
"He must have consumed some sort of mystical artifact, his physical body is strong, his blood and qi are vastly superior to that of an ordinary person."
