Chu Yunze also felt a surge of anger. The surrounding water currents surged, forming a lifelike Little Cyan Wave Dragon that moved with him, its head smashing toward the Assessnt Judge!
BOOM!
The cyan waves exploded, and the Assessnt Judge staggered back four or five steps before coming to a stop.
"Excellent. He qualifies as an Inner Court Seed!" the person-in-charge recorded.
"Su Chen!" the person-in-charge called out. It was finally his turn.
Chu Yunze stared at him intently, as if wanting to see for himself just where his strength lay.
Zhu Xuan seed to perk up as well, as if Su Chen had finally earned the right to be taken seriously.
BANG!
Another burly man strode forward. Chu Yunze’s expression changed slightly. ’Chen Liang? It’s him?’
He was an ordinary mber of the Inner Courtyard with a Canyin Level Talent. As far as Chu Yunze knew, the man had recently developed his Rock Guard to the Perfection stage and was in the process of advancing to a Tier Three Profession.
Moreover, the man was Wei Yinsuo’s grand-disciple. He glanced at Pang Xingwen, a feeling of disgust rising within him.
’This one looks quite young.’ Su Chen realized sothing was off. He glanced around and, sure enough, saw Pang Xingwen looking on with a sneer, ready to enjoy the show.
Su Chen could tell this man was far stronger than Chu Yunze’s opponent; layers of gray Stone Hide were even beginning to form on his skin.
"What are you waiting for? Are you going to forfeit?"
Seeing him just standing there, Chen Liang couldn’t help but shout, sounding extrely impatient.
The person-in-charge at the side let out a nearly imperceptible sigh, a look of resignation on his face.
Su Chen’s eyes narrowed. He subtly glanced toward the high platform. ’Since Old Xia is here...’
CRACKLE!
Arcs of electricity erupted as he activated his Wind and Thunder Envoy ability. Spiderweb-like patterns of lightning appeared on his skin, blue and purple arcs coursing along his veins.
His physical strength instantly soared by several levels. His hair billowed, every strand crackling with electricity. A gale raged around him, forming a visible vortex that collided with the arcs to create a storm of lightning.
With a light tap of his foot, Su Chen shot forward, becoming a blur to the naked eye.
He clenched his fist. Cyan wind currents coiled around his right arm, crackling with lightning.
[Wind-Thunder Fury]!
Simultaneously, he blasted out with his Telekinesis, targeting his opponent’s lower body—the very spot where his feet t the ground!
’Let’s see you block this—the culmination of four Top-tier Professions!’
"What the f—" Chen Liang had sensed sothing was wrong the mont the first arc of electricity appeared.
But Su Chen was so fast he couldn’t even react.
BOOM!!!
All he felt was an excruciating pain in his chest as his legs were knocked from under him as if struck by a giant hamr. Then, the world went dark.
...
"...Tier One Top-level Professions, training day and night without rest. It’s about ti we let those little brats from Ying Feng see what real ntal fortitude looks like."
Chong Jingtian looked down at a virtual screen displaying Su Chen’s basic profile.
Xia Hanshi had to report the matter of the Tier One Top-level Professions to Yuan Chenyang to claim credit, so of course, it wasn’t concealed.
As for the fact that Su Chen trained day and night, that was sothing anyone could easily look up.
"You’ve really found a good prospect this ti..." Chong Jingtian remarked with growing admiration as he looked at Xia Hanshi.
"It can’t be helped. When you co from a poor background, you naturally have to work a hundred tis harder. If he were Chu Yunze or Pang Xingwen, he probably wouldn’t be much better," Xia Hanshi said dismissively.
"You can’t put it that way..." Yuan Poshan said, shaking his head. "That ng Qi didn’t co from a good background either, but judging by his strength, he wasn’t exactly diligent... He couldn’t endure the solitude, in the end."
"You’re courting death!" Xia Hanshi shot to his feet, blazing golden flas erupting from his body.
Yuan Poshan was startled, then annoyed. ’Is this Xia Hanshi out of his mind? I’m trying to back him up.’
"Chen Liang, and he counts as an Assessnt Judge!?" Xia Hanshi’s tone was frigid. "He’s about to advance to Tier Three!"
Chong Jingtian was faster, already gripping his shoulder firmly. "This is the Judicial Court!" he barked.
Wei Yinsuo had already retreated a fair distance. "And why shouldn’t he count?" he said in a low voice. "Su Chen is strong, so naturally, we must use a strong person to assess him!"
Only then did Yuan Poshan realize what was happening on the field, and his expression soured.
Even though Xia Hanshi had snatched Su Chen away, there was still a lingering connection through Yuan Chenyang.
"Fourth Brother, you..." Just as Yuan Poshan started to speak, his expression flickered.
The others sensed sothing as well, and all eyes snapped down to the field below.
Chen Liang’s sturdy body had been sent flying sideways like a cannonball for more than ten ters. It landed and rolled several tis before finally coming to a stop.
Blood dribbled from his mouth, his chest was scorched black, and his body twitched uncontrollably. He had lost consciousness.
"Incredible..." Yuan Poshan was stunned. Staring at Su Chen’s strange state, he murmured, "Dual Elents?"
Xia Hanshi’s eyes glead. "His Spiritual Profession is Secret Scholar," he said lightly. "He stole a Thunder Elent-related ability and seems to have developed a Fusion Ability from it..."
"A Fusion Ability? So that’s it." Yuan Poshan’s eyes lit with understanding, and he shot another annoyed glare at Xia Hanshi.
"Balanced Talents... parallel professions, and a Fusion Ability. It’s truly rare," Chong Jingtian remarked, a thoughtful expression in his eyes.
Everyone wants to pursue parallel professions, but for most, their Talent is insufficient. It would just be a waste of energy.
As for a Fusion Ability, even less is recorded about them. They have stringent requirents regarding the individual, their professions, and their Talents. Only when all conditions are t is it possible for one to erge.
Wei Yinsuo’s expression was absolutely foul.
"Ha..." A grin spread across Xia Hanshi’s face. "You’ve been away from the front lines for too long. All you know now are petty sches. But as long as your fist is big enough, no sche is worth a damn."
"I seem to recall that... what was his na, Zhu Xuan? His physical Talent is Mo Cui, but his Spirit Talent is only Brass, isn’t it? Maybe he won’t even be as impressive as Su Chen in the future."
