Hearing this, Su Chen and the others, who initially thought they were about to be mocked, couldn’t help but chuckle silently in their hearts. So her target was still the senior brother.
In fact, Lanshang knew what level of Beast Cultivator Su Chen was, but she just couldn’t stand Chang Zhichun’s indifferent demeanor and wanted to seize the chance to mock him a bit.
Su Chen met her gaze and looked over, only to find Huo Yunxin standing behind Lanshang, frowning deeply.
His heart skipped a beat, like something had fallen into a tranquil lake, rippling across his heart!
Huo Yunxin, the woman who always looked down on him, the proud woman who insisted on breaking the engagement, stood right in front of him. He clenched his fists tightly, his mind flooded with thoughts, but in the end, he suppressed them all.
"Junior sister, the competition is about to start soon. You better take them to prepare quickly~" Chang Zhichun said with an awkward smile.
Lanshang pursed her lips, then nonchalantly led a few beautiful girls who were still judging Su Chen past Chang Zhichun’s side. Just as Su Chen lowered his head, Huo Yunxin’s unique cold and arrogant voice came softly, "Don’t lose so early, otherwise, I’ll look down on you even more~" Su Chen shuddered all over, and by the time he looked back, Huo Yunxin had already walked away.
He looked unsteady at the increasingly graceful figure, a remarkably bright light flashing in his eyes!
Just wait, Huo Yunxin, I’m going to show you the consequences of underestimating me!
Around the large number one arena, surrounded by no less than a hundred spectators, unexpectedly there were no cheers, no applause. In the center stood two silently confronting young men—Su Chen and Huo Yunfeng!
It’s unexpected that the two seeded players would face each other in the second round. This was something no one anticipated. Huo Yunfeng achieved an excellent second place in the training three years ago. Naturally, he is a rare outstanding disciple in the Carefree Sect, attracting everyone’s attention. On the other hand, although no one had seen Su Chen’s true strength, rumors are not without reason, and thus a small number of people firmly believe he is the most promising disciple in the Carefree Sect.
The clashing of titans, who can emerge victorious, this thought gripped everyone’s hearts.
"Brother, you absolutely can’t lose to him."
Standing by the arena, Huo Yunxin muttered to herself.
She also didn’t expect Su Chen to encounter her brother in the second round. Although she had full confidence in Huo Yunfeng, for some reason, a sense of unease kept surfacing now and then.
Her eyes were fixed on the two proud figures standing in the arena, her brows furrowed, her mood even more complex than if she were the one on stage.
In the arena, Huo Yunfeng slowly drew the longsword from his back, looking at Su Chen with icy eyes. At the command of the brother at the edge of the arena, he charged without hesitation!
In his view, no matter how much of a genius Su Chen is, no matter how he hides his strength, he couldn’t possibly surpass him by much, because just yesterday during his training, he once again broke through to the four-star Beast Spirit!
He coldly shouted, the tip of the sword suddenly bursting into a mass of azure light. This light, bearing the swirling power of the wind attribute, rapidly expanded and spread around!
This is a wind attribute sword technique, called "Crack Sword". As long as one is hit by the intense azure light in the small area, they would feel a tearing pain.
Su Chen’s eyes lit up, yet he didn’t even draw his sword. He rushed forward several meters and then kicked off the ground, flipping into mid-air, leaping out of the azure light’s attack range!
"Fool, jumping like that to temporarily dodge a strike. Next, you’re going to suffer!"
Someone in the crowd laughed.
"Exactly, why jump so high, aren’t you asking for trouble? Claimed to be talented, more like a fool!"
Someone followed up with mockery.
In their view, what Su Chen did was undoubtedly a foolish move, making it easier for Huo Yunfeng to launch attacks.
However, under everyone’s astonished eyes, Su Chen, wings spread like a Roc, suddenly had a dazzling azure light appear at his feet. The light lifted him another meter into the air, simultaneously dazzling Huo Yunfeng below, who attempted to pierce it with his sword!
At that instant, Su Chen’s left palm faced downward. As the Beast’s Qi Energy erupted within him, a brilliantly bright azure light condensed, "Wind Vortex! Absorb!"
Then he swiftly pulled out a short sword from his back, stabbing straight towards Huo Yunfeng on the ground!
Already in rapid descent, Su Chen accelerated further, shooting down like a small meteor falling from the sky!
Huo Yunxin exclaimed in shock!
But there was no bloodshed as everyone imagined. Just as Su Chen was about to stab Huo Yunfeng, an inexplicable spurt of azure light shot from his palm. With a burst of wind’s roar, he halted mid-air and then elegantly spun aside, landing several meters away!
The two who previously mocked Su Chen were utterly dumbfounded, mouth agape, their expressions as if they’d seen a ghost. Cold sweat dripped from Huo Yunxin’s forehead, her face pale as jade.
Huo Yunfeng stood there dumbfounded, eyes vacant as he looked at Su Chen across from him, the words failed echoing in his mind repeatedly.
The whole arena suddenly erupted into a thunderous applause, snapping Huo Yunfeng back to reality, trembling all over, unable to believe as he looked towards his sister at the edge of the arena.
He muttered to himself.
The senior brother acting as the referee glanced at Huo Yunfeng’s reaction and announced, "Su Chen is the victor!"
