Journey of the Fate Destroying Emperor novel Chapter 215

Wang Wei removed his gaze from Wu Hong and looked at the person who called him out in front of trillions of people. As it turns out, it was Ji Song’s doing. ’Well, this should be expected,’ thought Wang Wei to himself.

The [Heaven Chosen Selection Trial] was a very important event attended or watched by countless people. For example, there were approximately 15 billions people participating in the trial, and a few of them actually came from the Lower Realm.

More importantly, most of the cultivators in the world are currently watching this event; that alone is a few trillions people.

This is one of the reasons that many people actually wanted to participate in the trial: the opportunity for fame and glory. The opportunity to be worshipped by billions of people, the opportunity to display might and prowess to the world, to increase reputation.

In the cultivating world, reputation is not just about being famous or having a certain credibility. Reputation can transform into influence, influence will then transform into aura; aura that can be used either in battle or to intimidate the opponent. Aura that can increase chances of breaking through a cultivation bottleneck.

More importantly, reputation can increase a person Qi Luck or destiny.

Upon feeling Wan Wei’s gaze on him, Ji Song--who was now three meters tall and standing in the arena--said:

"I have waited for more than five decades to have a rematch with you, and now, you are not participating in the tournament? Are you scared to fight me again?"

His voice was loud and echoed throughout the large stadium that easily housed a few billion people, not to mention the viewers.

Wang Wei looked at him for a brief moment before saying out loud just like him: "Who are you again?"

Ji Song’s face instantly became ugly before roaring : "What do you mean by this?"

"Oh, sorry about that, I didn’t mean to be rude, but I have a disease where I can never remember someone that has been utterly decimated by me more than once," replied Wang Wei with a very nonchalant look on his face.

Meanwhile, many of the audience members gasped after hearing this, then they began to pay more attention. This is the reason that they decided to attend this kind of tournament: to watch these Heaven Chosens tear each other apart--both physically and mentally.

"Enough with your mockery," replied Ji Song. "Are you going to participate in this tournament and fight me?"

"I am more interested in why you are so interested in fighting me?"

"Isn’t it normal for people at our level to want to fight powerful opponents? Let alone me and you already have a vendetta?"

"Most scenarios would be true," replied Wang Wei calmly. "But why do I feel like these are not your real motives? Your insistence on fighting is almost like...You’re trying to prove something to yourself."

"Of course I am. I am trying to prove that a few failures does not represent anything on the Path of Emperor. As a true Heaven Chosen, I can always rise up again."

After a brief moment of silence, Wang Wei suddenly said: "I am becoming your Heart Demon, aren’t I?"

Although Ji Song’s face remained the same, his heart secretly skipped a beat as Wang Wei was right. After his second defeat during the Qi Luck Trial, it took a while to recuperate both physically and mentally. And even then, he did not fully recover.

He soon realized that Wang Wei was slowly becoming his Heat Demon, and if he did not defeat him or find another way to get rid of it, he would never be able to break through the Primordial Spirit Realm.

"Are you going to fight with me or not?" said Ji Song, completely ignoring the question.

"Why should I?" replied Wang Wei. "Why should I help my enemy get over his own problem?"

Ji Song furrowed his brow as he thought for a brief moment, then a smirk appeared in his mouth.

"With your militant blood, you are not the kind of person that easily refuses a challenge for such a petty reason. Based on your previous actions and words, I can analyze that you are back to your old business: bait your enemy into doing the things you want, then hook them.

"I do not have time to waste with you, so state what you want this time in exchange for my challenge."
