"A mere Third-class Disciple wants to kill us?"
"Wishful thinking!"
Gu Hanyue shouted coldly as the battle qi within her body surged wildly. She swung her sword!
CLANG!
The fierce collision sent a sharp, piercing hum through the two swords. While they were locked in a stalemate, Sun Bi’an threw a fierce punch at Long Chen!
"Now, let’s see how you get out of this!"
A slight smirk curled Sun Bi’an’s lips. In his mind, if Long Chen tried to defend against the punch, he would surely die at Gu Hanyue’s hands. If he didn’t block it, he would die by his hand. Either way, Long Chen was dead.
Seeing this, the expressions on the faces of Chen Yao and the others changed. This was especially true for Long Xin. Even though she believed in Long Chen, seeing him in such danger made her incredibly anxious.
She silently prayed for him, hoping he could defeat them!
Su Miaoyu suddenly burst out laughing. "Long Chen, this is the end for you!"
However, the words had barely left her mouth when she froze completely. She saw Long Chen make no move to dodge Sun Bi’an’s attack. He let it land!
BANG!
When Sun Bi’an’s palm landed on Long Chen, not only did Long Chen not go flying backward, but he also didn’t suffer the slightest injury.
True Dragon Combat Technique!
At that moment, Long Chen unleashed it.
BOOM!
His mastery of the Body Refinement Realm made Long Chen as sturdy as a boulder, completely unmovable! Only then did Long Chen free his hand and slap it toward Sun Bi’an’s chest! The immense force that erupted was more than Sun Bi’an could possibly withstand.
PFFT!
Sun Bi’an spat out a mouthful of blood as he was sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground.
Meanwhile, Gu Hanyue’s sharp sword was pressed against Long Chen’s body, but it didn’t leave a single scratch. Most of the force from their initial clash had already been deflected by Long Chen. Combined with the power of his True Dragon Combat Technique, her blade couldn’t break through his defense at all.
Long Chen’s body gave a sudden jolt.
The sharp sword snapped in two.
Long Chen took a step forward, his hand clamping firmly around Gu Hanyue’s neck. Her face contorted in pain, her limbs flailing like a frog’s.
"Senior Sister Gu!"
Sun Bi’an’s eyelids twitched. Ignoring the pain racking his body, he squeezed out the last of his battle qi and launched another explosive attack at Long Chen, unleashing the Earthfire Assault once more.
He knew with absolute clarity that if Gu Hanyue died now, he would be next.
Long Chen swung his sword!
The Earthfire Assault disintegrated. The sword strike’s momentum continued unchecked, landing squarely on Sun Bi’an.
SLICE!
Sun Bi’an’s whole body trembled. A thin line of blood trickled down from his forehead, and his body split in two.
Blood splattered everywhere!
Gu Hanyue’s heart trembled violently at the sight of Sun Bi’an’s gruesome death. But, driven by an instinct for survival, she thrust the remaining half of her sharp sword viciously at Long Chen’s neck!
Long Chen grabbed her wrist and twisted.
CRACK!
Gu Hanyue screamed as the half-blade was turned back on her.
SHICK!
The broken blade plunged directly through her neck.
Long Chen tossed her body to the ground like a piece of trash.
The entire crowd sucked in a collective breath of cold air. A deathly silence, born of sheer terror, fell over the arena.
The expressions on everyone’s faces shifted dramatically. No one had expected that a mere Third-class Disciple could simultaneously defeat and kill the experts ranked seventh, eighth, and ninth on the Martial Roll! The Martial Roll’s rankings were completely overturned by this one battle.
Is this guy even human?
"We won!"
"Our Long Chen won! The Human Institute won!" Tang Le slammed his hand on his chair and shouted excitedly. "We’ve really struck it rich this time!"
Sitting beside him, Tuoba Jiao shot up from her seat.
"How is this possible?" she muttered. "How could he have won?"
It’s over! It’s all over... This means I’ll have to give him a foot massage...
Filled with regret, Tuoba Jiao stomped her feet in frustration.
After finishing them off, an exhausted Long Chen sank to one knee on the Life and Death Platform, using his Blackwind Sword to prop himself up and keep from collapsing.
"Brother Chen!"
Long Xin hurried to his side. "Brother Chen, are you all right?" she asked with concern.
"I’m fine," Long Chen shook his head. "I’m just exhausted. I’ll be fine after I rest and regulate my breathing. It’s nothing serious."
Hearing this, Long Xin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Long Chen raised his head, his gaze landing on the shocked Su Miaoyu. He said coldly, "Su Miaoyu, you got lucky today and escaped with your life. Just you wait. Sooner or later, I, Long Chen, will come for your miserable life!"
