Capítulo 988: Chapter 999: The Seventh Punch
Wang Yan’s fist was gripping everyone’s heart at this mont.
Especially Zhao Hanli, whose heart was almost in his throat, nearly about to leap out.
Having just struck the Chaos Bell six tis, he knew better than anyone how difficult that process was.
Yet looking at Wang Yan, there wasn’t the slightest difficulty; even in the first five bell strikes, his body didn’t even retreat half a step.
From this, it seed certain that he could strike the Chaos Bell a sixth ti.
At this mont, Zhao Liangdong at the peak of one of the side peaks finally understood the aning of the smirk on Fang Hong’s face, and his heart churned.
Zhao Hanli was a carefully nurtured family offspring for nearly thirty years, hoping that he could astonish everyone in this examination and bring glory to the Zhao Family.
Although Zhao Hanli didn’t break Fang Jinchun’s record of 15 blows on the Chaos Bell, reaching the Chaos Chart was also a glory for the Zhao Family.
However, seeing the trend of Wang Yan, he might follow Zhao Hanli and also make it to the Chaos Chart with a record of six strikes.
If that happens, the glory of the Zhao Family would inevitably diminish significantly.
Where on earth did this Fang Hong find such a young lad?
Zhao Liangdong turned his head to glare at Fang Hong, only to see him smiling as he watched the Chaos Bell below the mountain.
A silence enveloped both the mountain and the valley, everyone waiting for Wang Yan to deliver the sixth punch.
At this mont, Wang Yan was rapidly contemplating in his heart.
The fifth punch had rebounded with 72 tis the force, which was still bearable for him.
However, the sixth punch would bounce back with 144 tis the force, surpassing his endurance.
But seeing Fang Jinchun having struck an astonishing 15 strikes, how could he stop at five?
Thinking of this, Wang Yan’s eyes turned cold, and he delivered the sixth punch.
With a “buzz,” the Chaos Bell sounded once more.
At this mont, no one doubted whether Wang Yan could strike the sixth sound, they were more concerned about how much injury the rebound of the sixth sound would inflict on him.
As Wang Yan’s fist landed on the Chaos Bell, he let out a muffled groan, and his body suddenly retreated half a step.
Although his body shook, he imdiately stabilized himself, but the foot he withdrew with had already stomped down on the stone beneath, shattering it.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
At least Wang Yan would be knocked back by the Chaos Bell. Otherwise, everyone would have thought the Chaos Bell was broken.
However, the six sounds did indeed ring out.
Suddenly, a blinding light shone on the Chaos Chart, shooting straight into the clouds.
It was the second ti today that the Chaos Chart had lit up.
In past years, the Chaos Chart would remain unchanged, but today it had changed twice in one day.
The whole of Mozi Academy was instantly shaken.
So disciples and doctors practicing indoors ca outside.
The Nine Peaks bustled with people, a sea of faces.
The light of the Chaos Chart receded, and the nas on it changed imdiately.
Originally, the tenth place only had the nas Zhao Fen and Zhao Hanli, but now a third na appeared after them – Wang Yan.
Only then did everyone learn Wang Yan’s na.
“Wang Yan? Who is Wang Yan? Whose family does he belong to?”
“None of the Eight Great Elders have the surna Wang?”
“Which noble family is this disciple from?”
The Nine Peaks erupted in discussions, yet no one could guess Wang Yan’s origins.
After all, those who made it to the Chaos Chart were extraordinary figures; each of the original the ten were legendary in Mozi Academy and well-known throughout the Celestial Dynasty.
Though none had heard Wang Yan’s na, it was certain that after today, his na would spread throughout the Celestial Dynasty.
Staring at the two characters “Wang Yan” following his na on the Chaos Chart, Zhao Hanli’s face turned almost ashen.
Originally, he was the sole Chief Disciple, but now there would be two.
But soon, Zhao Hanli consoled himself: It’s alright, it’s alright, my na’s in front, his is behind, I still rank ahead.
However, the next mont, Zhao Hanli beca disheartened because Wang Yan, apart from being knocked back half a step, showed no signs of injury.
Even with his eyes closed, he could predict that Wang Yan would surely attempt a seventh strike.
“If he strikes the seventh…”
Thinking of this, Zhao Hanli looked at the Chaos Chart and saw that the ninth na on the chart was Si Qin.
This Si Qin was also one of the Eight Great Elders, having struck the bell 8 tis in the past.
This ans that if Wang Yan strikes the seventh, he’ll have the tenth position all to himself, pushing Zhao and Zhao Fen off the list.
Being pushed off the list would an being pushed off the Chaos Chart.
Zhao Hanli was imdiately terrified. If this happened, he would beco the person with the shortest ti on the Chaos Chart in Mozi Academy’s history.
Zhao Liangdong was also equally astonished.
Zhao Hanli and Zhao Fen were both disciples of the Zhao Family, and he had just been showing off to Fang Hong for having three people from the Zhao Family on the Chaos Chart.
Now, Zhao Liangdong finally understood the aning of the phrase Fang Hong had previously said, “You won’t be able to be proud for long.”
This old fox Fang Hong had planned this all along!
Zhao Liangdong was nearly driven mad with rage and quickly turned to look at Fang Hong.
He saw Fang Hong smiling and looking at him, eyebrows raised in triumph.
Zhao Liangdong swallowed hard and then quickly looked down at Zhao Xuebo, using a sound transmission to say, “Stop him, don’t let him hit the seventh strike.”
Zhao Liangdong used Thousand-Mile Sound Transmission, so only Zhao Xuebo could hear him.
Having heard Zhao Liangdong’s words, Zhao Xuebo could only lant inwardly. He had long wanted to stop Wang Yan, but it was nearly impossible in front of so many people.
But since the Zhao Family Patriarch had spoken, Zhao Xuebo knew the matter was serious, so he could only brace himself and say, “Wang Yan, well done, you made it onto the Chaos Chart, you’ve succeeded, co up the mountain with .”
These words from Zhao Xuebo were an attempt to forcefully stop Wang Yan from continuing to strike the Chaos Bell.
If Wang Yan didn’t understand the situation, he might have really followed Zhao Xuebo up the mountain.
Seeing this, the crowd on the Eight Great Peaks burst into an uproar, as several great Elders frowned.
Only Fang Hong smiled slightly, thinking: Wang Yan is such a brilliant lad, even smarter than ; Zhao Family’s disciple, you think you can fool him?
Sure enough, after hearing Zhao Xuebo’s words, Wang Yan raised his fist once more and slowly said, “I still want to try the seventh punch.”
