Hu Yiqiu’s words made the hearts of the students tense up, and they couldn’t help but look at Jiang Chen with worried eyes.
"Good! I hope Elder Wine-crazed keeps his word!"
Sun Zheqi spoke loudly, then looked at the instructors responsible for maintaining the order of the tournant and hosting it, standing beside the arena.
"The instructors also wouldn’t intervene arbitrarily, right?"
Sun Zheqi cupped his fists and bowed.
"Sun Zheqi, do we need you to tell us how to do things?"
An instructor spoke coldly.
"Sun Zheqi, are you wasting ti?"
A cold voice rang out, Jiang Chen glanced disdainfully at Sun Zheqi, then turned to look at the instructors and students: "Instructors and seniors, since he does not want interference, then please watch over his fellow disciples and ensure they do not intervene either. Today, I want to see who will die in this arena!"
The instructors and students were all taken aback, their hearts trembling fiercely!
Sun Zheqi is preventing Jian Cangqiong and the others from intervening, as well as the instructors. Could it be that he wants to...
Swish!
A figure suddenly appeared above the arena.
Xi Nu spoke coldly: "Arena battles are not death matches; you must not deliberately kill your opponent. If there’s a life-threatening situation, the referee should intervene to stop it. These are the rules, the iron laws! The academy is a place for teaching and nurturing, not a place to settle personal grudges! I will referee this challenge today!"
"Greetings, Elder Xi Nu!"
"Greetings, Elder Xi Nu!"
Everyone cupped their fists and bowed to Xi Nu, becoming more orderly.
Xi Nu and Dao Yeming manage the disciplinary asures and always maintain a stern deanor, so both students and instructors are quite fearful of him.
"Humph! Young Jiang is enraged. If Dao Yeming hadn’t intervened, those two would surely die here today!"
Hu Yiqiu coldly snorted.
This statent, controlled by Hu Yiqiu, reached only the ears of Jian Cangqiong and Dao Yeming.
Jian Cangqiong’s expression changed slightly, he glanced at Hu Yiqiu, then looked down at Jiang Chen on the stage, deep in thought.
Usually kind to others, he quickly sees through and counters any cunning plot with just a few words, and when his opponent pushes too far, he kills in anger!
This astuteness, this courage...
Jian Cangqiong felt a subtle sense of inferiority!
Dao Yeming’s mouth twitched, knowing that Hu Yiqiu was blaming him for intervening to stop it. He felt helpless—had he known that the elder had such confidence in Jiang Chen, he wouldn’t have intervened!
Now, having already stepped in, there was no way to back out. Dao Yeming could only continue to serve as the referee for this challenge: "During the match, no killing, no deliberately crippling your opponent’s cultivation, have you heard?"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Jiang Chen and the others cupped their hands in acknowledgnt.
"Let the battle begin!"
Xi Nu continued no further and directly announced the start.
Whoosh, whoosh!
Sun Zheqi and his partner retreated, widening the distance between them and Jiang Chen.
"Today, I’ll experience Senior Jiang’s Dao Rhythm attack once more!"
Bo Liancheng spoke aningfully, the corners of his mouth curling into a cold smile.
"With just you two? Not worthy of using Dao Rhythm!"
Jiang Chen spoke disdainfully.
Not worthy? Is it because the injured Dao Rhythm cannot be used?
Bo Liancheng and his partner exchanged glances, a cold smile forming in their hearts.
A month ago, when Sun Zheqi reached the top of Southern Maniac Mountain, he sensed the Dao Rhythm aura on Jiang Chen, which at that ti was out of control.
According to Lu Buping, the uncontrolled Dao Rhythm indicated a severely injured Great Dao!
The reason the two agreed to Jiang Chen’s challenge was to seriously harm Jiang Chen once again, without giving him the opportunity to decline fighting another.
"Senior Jiang is so confident! In that case, we can only go all out!"
Sun Zheqi coldly smiled.
"Is it another of Elder Lu’s favored full-force strikes? Good, let see where your confidence cos from, daring to challenge !"
Jiang Chen derisively smiled.
The students collectively frowned. Sun Zheqi and Bo Liancheng insist on going all out despite Jiang Chen’s injury, clearly intending to humiliate him, just like in the tournant a month ago!
Jiang Chen’s attitude alerted the more perceptive among them. They stared intently at Jiang Chen, a suspicious look in their eyes—his confidence didn’t seem feigned. How could he be so confident?
"Humph! Let’s see if you can hold that stance later!"
Bo Liancheng coldly snorted.
Buzz!
The pressure of the Great Dao surged, and Bo Liancheng’s body emitted a dazzling azure light.
Roar!
The sound of a dragon’s roar resounded, and an azure flood dragon erged from Bo Liancheng’s form. Instantly, a massive wave appeared in the sky, and the dragon leaped atop the wave!
Simultaneously, Sun Zheqi’s body exuded vast and majestic Great Dao power, streams of earth-colored divine light pouring from within.
Roar!
A deafening beast roar echoed, and an ethereal bear of the earth stood hovering over Sun Zheqi, glaring fiercely at Jiang Chen.
"Such strong pressure! Sun Zheqi and Bo Liancheng have improved so much in just a month?"
"Especially Sun Zheqi, his Martial Soul already seems to be solidifying. How is this possible!?"
"This...I sense a hint of Elder Lu’s aura within Sun Zheqi’s Great Dao aura!"
"What? Could it be? Elder Lu helped temporarily enhance Sun Zheqi’s Great Dao comprehension!?"
The students exclaid in astonishnt, looking at Sun Zheqi with skeptical eyes.
"Lu Buping! You really have no sha!"
Hu Yiqiu spoke coldly, glancing up at the mid-slope of West Fury Mountain, a glint of cold light in his eyes.
"Should we call it off? Elder Lu’s action has broken the rules of engagent!"
Jian Cangqiong whispered.
"Let’s see what that kid does. All sches and tricks will be exposed in front of absolute power, and that kid...now might not even be a match for your own!"
Hu Yiqiu shook his head, confidently observing Jiang Chen on the arena.
Jian Cangqiong was montarily stunned, looking at Jian Wuheng below the stands, recalling the scene of Jiang Chen cultivating in Jingge Tower, suddenly understanding.
Has Jiang Chen truly condensed a Great Dao Wheel of Light?
A Great Dao Wheel condensed at the Divine Infant Realm Early Stage, surpasses the other ’Sons of Heavenly Dao’!
Is this kid...still human?
Hu Yiqiu’s confidence indeed stemd from Jiang Chen condensing a Great Dao Wheel of Light, but what he referred to was not the Golden Path Divine Wheel.
Neither of the two knew Jiang Chen had condensed a Great Dao Wheel of Light, but one assud Hu Yiqiu, as Jiang Chen’s teacher, knew Jiang Chen had condensed a Golden Path Divine Wheel while the other hadn’t explicitly ntioned Jiang Chen’s condensation of a Divine Ring. Thus, the two inadvertently helped conceal Jiang Chen’s true strength!
Dao Yeming, floating above the arena, also noticed Sun Zheqi’s anomaly. Just as he was about to intervene, he heard Hu Yiqiu’s words and halted his actions, remaining vigilant and ready to act at any mont.
The battle was on the precipice of eruption.
