Chapter 292
Following that person’s shout, Long Chen’s expression became slightly colder .
When it came to controlling his emotions, Long Chen was definitely an expert . But the instant that man’s gaze fell on Tang Wan-er, his killing intent was ignited .
If others insulted him, Long Chen would just smile . But if someone touched one of his taboos, he was unable to control his feelings .
Tang Wan-er’s expression was icy cold, and killing intent surfaced in her eyes as well . She was just about to jump onto the stage when a voice rang out:
“Long Chen, let me battle . ” That voice came from Gu Yang .
Both Long Chen and Tang Wan-er were startled . Although Gu Yang was powerful, he wasn’t a Favored . The odds of losing were too high .
Long Chen thought about it for a while before nodding . “You can go . ”
Gu Yang was delighted . He knew that this was extremely risky, but he was unable to suppress his battle intent . He was looking forward to have a one on one fight with a Favored .
According to common sense, Long Chen should not have accepted . Gu Yang might be strong, but his chances of victory were low . That was something that involved eighty thousand merit points .
But Long Chen could understand Gu Yang’s thirst . In Gu Yang’s eyes, this battle wasn’t in order to gamble for resources, but a way for him to see what level he had reached .
As for that Favored, seeing that it wasn’t Tang Wan-er, but a random core disciple, who had come to face him, he was infuriated .
This was clearly their attempt at humiliating him . He icily glared at them .
“Good, since you want to court death, don’t blame me!”
Gu Yang got on the martial stage and glared at that Favored . “I hope that when you die, you also won’t blame me!”
“Hahaha!” That Favored’s fury somehow turned into laughter . “Someone like you dares to be arrogant? Die you little pig!”
That Favored suddenly roared, and his aura exploded out . A berserk energy caused his feet to leave behind two footprints on the martial arena as he suddenly charged out at Gu Yang, smas.h.i.+ng out with his fist .
Gu Yang had long since circulated his spiritual qi to its peak . With a harsh shout, runes lit up on his body and a vast aura shot out of him as well . He punched out .
BOOM!
The instant their two fists met, the entire martial stage shook . Powerful gales shot out in every direction, causing everyone’s clothes to blow back .
The both of them then instantly retreated a couple steps . That Favored couldn’t help being astonished .
“So you have a couple tricks . But let me see just how many of my fists you can receive!” That Favored snorted, and his fists began to smash at Gu Yang .
This was the first time Gu Yang had an opportunity to fight a Favored one against one . Battle intent soared off him . He repeatedly roared, facing off against him with his own fists .
BOOM!
BOOM!
BOOM!
The two of them were both brute strength style fighters . Each time their fists collected, the entire martial arena would shake, and powerful gales would explode out, chilling everyone .
“Gu Yang is so powerful! He can actually withstand a Favored,” exclaimed Tang Wan-er .
Favored were all supposed to be incomparably powerful . The fact he could exchange over ten blows without losing was already out of everyone’s expectations .
“This is still just the warm up, so it’s still too early to say . ” Long Chen shook his head . How could a Favored only have this little skill?
And as he expected, after over a hundred intense collisions, they once more separated .
“Not bad . It’s been a while since I’ve exercised my body . But if you think this the limit of my power, you would be gravely mistaken . Now I’ll let you see what true strength is! Earthen Armor!”
A mark appeared over his forehead, and a powerful energy exploded out, causing the land to tremble .
That Favored’s clothes burst off his upper body, revealing his skin that looked like it was made of rock . In fact, his entire body grew taller, and the lines covering his arms were very rock-like .
He roared, and stamping on the ground, he charged at Gu Yang with a fist . “Rock Fist!”
Gu Yang used his full strength to block, but he was still sent flying dozens of meters . Even once he landed on the ground, he still stumbled back several steps before stabilizing .
In the end, he even coughed up a mouthful of blood, causing Tang Wan-er’s expression to change . Gu Yang had finally been injured .
“c.r.a.p!” Song Mingyuan and the others were all shocked . If he was wounded with just one blow, how could he fight?
“Don’t worry about it . Gu Yang still has moves,” consoled Long Chen .
Long Chen had exchanged blows with Gu Yang before, and he knew his physical body was extremely powerful . This little injury was unable to affect his strength .
