"You..."
Vitinya's face turned red, and his whole body was surging with energy and blood.
He gritted his teeth, continuously letting out beast-like growls of anger, his grip on the sword hilt turning white, with his nails deeply digging into his palm...
But he just couldn't bring the sword down.
At this mont, Chen Zaikun, who appeared honest and simple, seed to transform into a towering mountain, blocking Vitinya's path. No matter how he struggled, there was absolutely no way to take another step forward.
Even...
Chen Zaikun gently raised his hand.
And Vitinya, along with that massive shadow, was forcefully lifted a few inches again.
Just with this strike, it was clear...
The disparity in strength between the two was evidently on a completely different level.
"How could this be... How is this possible?"
Vitinya's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
In his mory, this second senior brother was always an honest person. Although his talent was decent, it wasn't top-notch, so he never showed off his power outside.
Thus, Vitinya never really took Chen Zaikun seriously in the past, thinking he was just soone who reached the high tier through seniority.
Vitinya believed that even if he couldn't defeat Chen Zaikun, he would definitely cause him significant trouble.
But now...
The situation was completely beyond his understanding.
"What on earth is going on? What is second senior brother's Sequence? Why do I feel as though he's not using any moves, yet I can't win or even harm him?"
His lips were sowhat pale, and the fighting spirit that once burned fiercely within him mostly vanished in an instant.
Down below, Yun You and the other spectators also felt strange.
They didn't sense any energy fluctuations, and barely saw how Chen Zaikun made his move.
Yet he just effortlessly took the upper hand in an instant.
In people's perspectives, Vitinya seed to inexplicably raise his sword, inexplicably slash down, and then stop for so unknown reason.
"Strange."
This was the only thought in the people's minds.
"Wow, second brother's strength has taken another step forward."
In the crowd, senior brother Jiang Wuji raised an eyebrow and remarked softly, "I rember, the old man used to tell us the principle of the 'first bird flies first,' but us 'geniuses' didn't take it seriously, always thinking of slacking off."
"But second brother is different. He's straightforward and sotis a bit stubborn, but he's the one who listens the most, so he always doubles his training, cultivating while we slack off."
"We all thought that in a few years, he'd be the first to fall behind in our ranks, but now it seems, except for , he's left the rest of us siblings far behind. Even I can't see through him..."
Old Jin shook his head with a smile.
"Diligence can make up for lack of talent; even those without much talent can catch up with geniuses through rigorous training."
"Moreover, second brother isn't entirely without talent... In fact, his talent may be higher than you all imagine."
"That is also the reason why I've always wanted him to be my successor."
Jiang Wuji shrugged, not paying too much attention to it.
"But speaking of which..."
He paused, looking back at Chen Zaikun on the stage.
"I've been with the second brother for so many years, yet I still don't know his Sequence."
"Old man, you don't know either?"
Old Jin lightly shook his head.
"That's his 'psychological weakness,' a mory he doesn't want to recall, so since he won't speak, I won't ask."
"But it's okay... second brother's loyalty is assured; he will always stand with us and Yun'er, and he would never betray us."
"Never."
