Challenging Xi Xing Lei, the people present at the Yu Long Sect even began to question the integrity of their own ears. Chen Xuan, a familiar figure, renowned for taking a month to gather Qi into his body, was considered a waste within the Yu Long Sect. Yet, now he dared to challenge the sect's top genius, Xi Xing Lei. It was laughable.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3berrXpNG
"Has Chen Xuan gone mad?"
"Just a clown seeking attention, only to be laughed at by everyone."
"What kind of trash dares to offend Senior Brother Xi? He must have quite the audacity."
"What sort of figure is Senior Brother Xi, that he should be challenged by someone like Chen Xuan?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKsqD8uYY2
The crowd in the Yu Long Sect square was in an uproar, with criticisms of Chen Xuan ringing in his ears. Even Elder Li furrowed his brow, though he refrained from speaking out due to his status. In the past, Chen Xuan wouldn't have dared to act this way. But now, things were different. He possessed power.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V92yQ0i1t
Despite the ridicule from the crowd, Chen Xuan remained undaunted. Xi Xing Lei remained silent, merely surveying Chen Xuan. Xi Xing Lei actually had a deep impression of Chen Xuan. At the time, when he was heavily injured and carrying fourteen Cleansing Fruits, it was Chen Xuan who happened to pass by.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2yFHK5nDo
Though Xi Xing Lei's injuries were severe, his strike was still formidable enough to knock Chen Xuan to the ground. Chen Xuan looked into Xi Xing Lei's eyes and smirked, "Do you dare?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cqNs9FHiK
"Do you dare to face me in a fair and honorable duel here?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcBF4BLFPx
Xi Xing Lei frowned slightly before finally speaking, "Chen Xuan, isn't it? I remember you. Have your wounds healed?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAchlEPzbtI
The implication was clear: Don't forget the pain once the scars have faded.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cvpcbdjtR
"They have, thanks to your guidance, which has helped me improve," Chen Xuan replied.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKVPfhRZLn
"I don't see your improvement, but your courage has indeed grown," Xi Xing Lei retorted.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJigDH3Tih1
"But your courage seems to have diminished." Upon hearing Chen Xuan's audacious words, the crowd erupted once again.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiTqvu1lyP
"What kind of person do you think you are, to mock Senior Brother Xi?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DSUD4g4kg
"You're not worthy to fight Senior Brother Xi. Let me teach you a lesson."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAweZELVoP
Even Elder Li in the square couldn't help but rebuke, "Chen Xuan, silence! Who do you think you are!"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSd8kD4K6p
At this moment, Xi Xing Lei suddenly smiled, "I admire Junior Brother Chen's courage. How about we settle this with a duel, with life and death at stake?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaW1VBwz13
"What do you say? Do you dare?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJaw9qG2iz
Elder Li fell silent. He knew that Xi Xing Lei had made up his mind to kill. However, for someone like Chen Xuan, with such dismal talent and a lack of understanding of his position, it would be his own fault if he died.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTa9DaGZau
Chen Xuan also smiled. His goal had finally been achieved. He had successfully provoked Xi Xing Lei and challenged him to a public duel.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ639F6zDPz9
Next, all he had to do was defeat and humiliate him mercilessly.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVt8FyyBeAW
"Then let's begin," Chen Xuan said lightly.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbLc3BsCog
Shen Hua, who had been concealing his presence with the Shadowless Technique, finally smiled.
Tightly gripped the Red Ghost Blade, drawing upon its formidable power.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Lcna17MMc
"Senior Brother Xi usually never uses a sword when sparring with others."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYA2aFlnafr
"Senior Brother Xi seems serious this time. Looks like Chen Xuan will have a hard time surviving."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ivzyZh6Q7
"Who does he think he is, daring to be so audacious? He deserves to die."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jGS3knxvf
"We should take this opportunity to observe Senior Brother Xi's swordsmanship. It's not something we often get to see. Perhaps we can learn something from it."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJpZQ5o1wb
On the dueling platform, Chen Xuan lightly swung the short blade in his hand, looking at Xi Xing Lei with a sense of trance. It felt as if he had returned to that afternoon during the sect's trial when he fought for the Cleansing Fruits.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzG2j2zjnM
Xi Xing Lei remained confident, but Chen Xuan was no longer the same person as before.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QNVwn8ASs
"I used to envy you. Your extraordinary talent, the admiration you received, even the cheers you garnered with a simple swing of your sword."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXm6GStvB2J
Xi Xing Lei paused for a moment upon hearing these words.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡddZzIiaVVr
"Are you begging for mercy? Unfortunately, it's too late. You shouldn't have provoked me."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0cw8lwnc3
"Why couldn't you just stay in your corner quietly? Why did you have to jump out and act like a clown?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviQGofTADk
"Say your last words."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ89tgzOUMqf
"No, what I mean is, I will defeat you, become like you, and be admired by countless people."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2S64ecNjdK
"You're asking for death!"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGCgusK6vW
Xi Xing Lei seemed provoked by Chen Xuan's words, and his spiritual power surged as his sword emitted a clear resonance.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8zsIBzJMX
"Flowing Water Sword."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDV0COmoqm
A sword strike, akin to a roaring dragon, sent a cyan sword energy hurtling towards Chen Xuan.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjSv0S57uR
Under the envelopment of this strike, Chen Xuan felt an overwhelming sense of killing intent, momentarily causing his mind to falter.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnByOtMsaaH
"Truly worthy of Xi Xing Lei, to be able to unleash such a strike," Elder Li marveled.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwVAVrVHsT
Such talent was truly terrifying. As for Chen Xuan, he already considered himself dead.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡprYIp3KeUt
A waste like him couldn't possibly withstand such a strike.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYMTe98EyJ
The Red Ghost Blade in Chen Xuan's hand emitted waves of fluctuations, awakening him from his momentary lapse.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2TifGt6V6
Seeing the cyan sword energy rushing towards him, Chen Xuan's eyes flashed with determination.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHjsbXJoeN
Gripping the Red Ghost Blade tightly in his right hand, he drew upon its power.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSKK1evoTe
Sensing the surging power within him, Chen Xuan felt an unprecedented sense of strength.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK0ZvNgR42
As the cyan sword energy approached, Chen Xuan had an epiphany.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiPEcA2iOE
With the Red Ghost Blade in hand, he aimed at the sword energy and swung.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUrDteOcqF
The surging power of the Red Ghost Blade erupted instantly.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuzIZ0FuXp
A flash of red light shattered the cyan sword energy in midair.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNpw0rVvN78
The red light emitted a terrifying aura, unabated as it slashed towards Xi Xing Lei.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekYB5ZIWbz
"How is this possible?" Xi Xing Lei's eyes widened in disbelief.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ538qjsbtpr
In the face of intense crisis, every hair on Xi Xing Lei's body stood on end.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOugJp5eSb
Xi Xing Lei's spiritual power surged frantically as he held his sword defensively.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVkkfJsA4C
"Sword Element Technique, block for me!"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjYdfvnXtmW
With Xi Xing Lei's sword as the core, a shield formed instantaneously.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDJmt2Exja
Boom!
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSeaCCdYRN
The shield shattered, and Xi Xing Lei fell to the ground, coughing up blood. His pristine white clothes were stained with dust and blood, leaving him in a sorry state.
"It seems everything is going smoothly."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOX4jjSUU6T
...
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZosgr8bkkU
On the dueling grounds, Xi Xing Lei drew his sword, releasing a sharp aura.
“Look around you, all your junior brothers and sisters admire you. You've let them down, do you understand?” Xi Xing Lei heard these words and felt a sense of panic. He struggled to lift his eyes and glanced at the audience below.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZRJKWM1Dy
He only saw incredulous faces, watching him being trampled underfoot by Chen Xuan. This scene dealt a heavy blow to Xi Xing Lei's self-esteem.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuEqCOeZkj
As a young genius, Xi Xing Lei was somewhat arrogant, and he valued his reputation above all else. But Chen Xuan's actions directly crushed Xi Xing Lei's dignity, leaving him utterly humiliated in front of countless disciples of the Jade Dragon Sect.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PLYLjxHqK
"Chen Xuan, just wait. I will kill you!" Xi Xing Lei was beginning to sound frantic.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCEk0NWBbY
"Oh, kill me?" Chen Xuan chuckled. "I knew you wanted to kill me from the moment you challenged me to a life-and-death duel."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKq2mMtbKAG
Elder Li hastily exclaimed, "Chen Xuan, you mustn't go too far!"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaAhjG7EG5
At first, Elder Li was shocked to see Chen Xuan's newfound strength. But years of experience had given him ample wisdom. He immediately realized one thing: from now on, the top genius of the Jade Dragon Sect would no longer be Xi Xing Lei, but the current Chen Xuan.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceYLBLPx9m
Though he didn't understand why Chen Xuan had behaved like such a waste before.
However, Elder Li had witnessed Chen Xuan's strength firsthand, seeing how he easily incapacitated Xi Xing Lei with a single strike. This talent was truly terrifying.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpohxmPXY7S
Facing such a promising newcomer, Elder Li wasn't foolish enough to suppress him. Instead, he decided to show some goodwill, especially since Xi Xing Lei wasn't his disciple and couldn't be influenced as easily.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjlKFuztqn
But Chen Xuan was different. He didn't have a master yet, so Elder Li saw him as someone worth cultivating.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMjbdkfFn4
When things escalated to the point of potential bloodshed, Elder Li intervened promptly. Losing either of these Jade Dragon Sect geniuses would be a great loss.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVND2fBhOEw
"Don't worry, Elder Li, I won't kill him," Chen Xuan reassured.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfitrQMJkq3
"As long as you act with restraint," Elder Li breathed a sigh of relief.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgOwzubHBL
"Xi Xing Lei, I won't kill you, but I want you to apologize to me," Chen Xuan proposed. "What do you say? You wanted to kill me, so I just need you to apologize. Isn't that magnanimous enough?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxCWiIOTpH
However, Xi Xing Lei, always proud, found it more difficult to apologize than to be killed.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytvtwOjcJI
"You think you're someone? I am Xi Xing Lei! You want me to apologize to you?" Xi Xing Lei was furious.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhw6gJTK2g
"In that case, I'll just keep stepping on your face until you apologize," Chen Xuan calmly responded.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJRwmDgCSd
As Xi Xing Lei contemplated the humiliation of being publicly stepped on, his resolve began to falter.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyziiJa17YP
"If you kill me, fine. But if you don't, I swear, I will make you regret ever being born!" Xi Xing Lei threatened.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5m88coYxKy
"Oh, really?" Chen Xuan's foot remained firmly planted on Xi Xing Lei's head.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtofL1V9hbx
Because of Xi Xing Lei's arrogance, there were many disciples in the Jade Dragon Sect who disliked him. However, none dared to voice their dissatisfaction under Xi Xing Lei's formidable power. But now, with Xi Xing Lei humiliated and defeated by Chen Xuan in front of everyone, whispers of criticism began to spread throughout the audience.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUNpchou9L
"Look at our esteemed Senior Brother Xi, now in such a sorry state."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYV6TXZ220u
"Xi Xing Lei is usually so arrogant. Why isn't he acting superior now?"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAo2EbU6ibb
"Judging by strength alone, Senior Brother Chen is even more formidable."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhGW0daL5a
Although these were murmurs, as cultivators, they had keen senses and could clearly hear each other's words.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOe4KsNA8ev
Xi Xing Lei looked at the eyes below the platform, feeling nothing but pain. He then turned his gaze to Elder Li, hoping for help.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ZzRa74YJF
"Besides my master, you've always been the best to me, please help me, save your disciple," Xi Xing Lei pleaded.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmAQUAPglZc
Elder Li looked at Chen Xuan and then said, "Chen Xuan, consider this."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIpNx28Z09
But Chen Xuan refused, "No, Elder Li. Xi Xing Lei wanted to kill me. I can't just let it slide."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLOfnvIkuG
"Then, Xi Lei, apologize," Elder Li suggested, trying to defuse the situation.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXn86bckaTa
In reality, Elder Li had no intention of helping Xi Xing Lei. Chen Xuan was clearly more promising, and he didn't want to offend him. Xi Xing Lei's days as the sect's top genius were over.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlItLmvRg3
Xi Xing Lei's heart sank as he realized there was no hope left. Why was Elder Li treating him like this? He used to be so accommodating.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHj2X1R8QE
"Senior Brother Xi, just apologize, and I'll forgive everything," Chen Xuan said leisurely.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PtlzUYBkM
Struggling with his shattered pride, Xi Xing Lei gritted his teeth and muttered, "I'm sorry."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxNYqZumlL
"Louder, Senior Brother Xi," Chen Xuan demanded.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31ZXnPE0vH
Xi Xing Lei's face turned red as he shouted, "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5SmfI10WSU
Finally, Chen Xuan smiled. "That's better, Senior Brother Xi. I forgive you."
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyXF6Ocei4
With that, Chen Xuan lifted his foot from Xi Xing Lei's face. Xi Xing Lei stumbled to his feet, his face still flushed with embarrassment and anger.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4mxkVvQll
Looking at the crowd below, he felt every pair of eyes mocking him, every gesture filled with contempt. Then he glanced at Chen Xuan's smiling face and Elder Li's innocent expression, feeling a surge of rage.
62Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBNjagP8DLJ
"Would you like some healing pills?" Elder Li offered, feigning concern.
