Chapter 970: 970
“What happened?!”
Everyone was startled by this sudden change . They hadn’t seen how this person had disappeared . Even Long Chen’s guard went up, as this change was too sudden .
“Heavens, he’s flown out!” Someone let out a startled cry . Looking outside the flying boat, they saw a figure rapidly shrinking and disappearing . Although it had just been an instant, they had still managed to see that senior disciple’s look of despair and terror .
“I’ve already said that anyone who dares to say that something is unfair in front of me should be ready to be thrown out . Did you treat my words as just wind through your ears?”
Just at this moment, the cold Elder Sha appeared in front of them . They felt pity for that disciple . Just because he had said something was unfair, he had been thrown out . With how large the Eastern Wasteland was, it was unknown if he would be able to find his way back .
“Hmph, he should count himself lucky . This place is still above the Eastern Wasteland . With his cultivation base, he has a high chance of being able to live to find a cultivation city and return to the Xuantian Dao Sect . A bit further and we’d have entered the region of the Martial Heaven Sea . Then he’d have died . I don’t care if you’re a newcomer or an old disciple, you better all remember that rules are rules . When you don’t have the power to break them, be well-behaved,” said Elder Sha .
This was Long Chen’s first time feeling that Elder Sha wasn’t so dislikable . Although his refusal to compromise or bend was displeasing, after this event, Long Chen realized that he should simply be a stubborn old man . He was the kind of person who followed the rules no matter what .
Although this kind of person wasn’t someone easy to like, he also wouldn’t cause others to feel too much dislike for him . Now that he understood his temper, things would be much easier .
“Did you hear him? Elder Sha has said that as long as we don’t break the rules, anything goes . Whoever wants to go challenge them can go ahead . Don’t miss this opportunity . It’s not just any time that you can beat the senior generation disciples . Furthermore, while you beat them, they can’t even release their true power and can only use the Sea Expansion realm’s power . Whether it’s for tempering yourself or probing how strong the experts from the Central Plains are, it’s a great opportunity . Brothers, what are you waiting for?” said Long Chen .
His words caused the senior disciples to be infuriated . Why was it that at their generation, things were reversed? When they had come to the Central Plains, they had been bullied . Now that they finally had a chance to repay the favor and teach a lesson to these brats, they were once more the bullied targets .
One of the Dragonblood warriors jumped onto the martial stage and pointed at a senior disciple, directly challenging him .
With Elder Sha present, that disciple didn’t dare to hesitate . He immediately jumped onto the martial stage and began a fierce fight with the Dragonblood warrior .
But what startled everyone was that the Dragonblood warrior didn’t release his Spirit Blood . He fought without it .
“Why aren’t you activating your Spirit Blood? Are you looking down on me?!” shouted the senior disciple . He felt like he was being looked down upon . He would rather be defeated than suffer this insult .
“Since you can’t use your full power, then I’ll also hold back . Furthermore, I’m a rank three Celestial while you’re only rank two . I already have such an advantage, so if I activated my Spirit Blood, it would be unfair . Let me see just how strong the experts of the Central Plains are . Even if I lose, I won’t use my Spirit Blood,” said the Dragonblood warrior . Runes filled the air as his fists danced . Other than not using his Spirit Blood, he wasn’t holding back at all .
Elder Sha’s expression was still icy, but a bit of praise appeared in his eyes . It was rare to see such a courageous disciple .
Hearing this, the people who had fought before immediately felt regret . Other than some satisfaction from being posers, they had gained nothing . The right decision was to see just how strong the Central Plains’ experts were .
“Hey, what are you all looking at me for?! When you were being posers, you looked so happy . Now you want to push all the responsibility on me?!” Guo Ran glared back at the few people that were glaring at him .
Those people didn’t say anything . They just watched the battle . That Dragonblood warrior’s cultivation base was at the fifth Heavenstage of Sea Expansion, and three-colored runes revolved around him .
As for the senior disciple, his cultivation base was suppressed to the peak of Sea Expansion . With each wave of his hand, runes shot out . His techniques were extremely refined . This was the skillful control of a Foundation Forging expert .
The Dragonblood warriors’ expressions grew graver as the battle progressed because they were now at a disadvantage . The power of these senior disciples was now finally showing .
Although their cultivation bases had been suppressed, their skill in magical arts was unmatched . They came in an unending stream with almost no cast time and left no openings between their moves .
The Dragonblood warrior exchanged over a hundred blows against the senior disciple, testing all kinds of methods, but was unable to escape from his disadvantageous position . Suddenly, he shouted, “Be careful!”
A saber appeared within his hand . A fierce aura soared and berserk killing intent caused everyone to turn cold .
His saber slashed out three times in a row, each time shattering his opponent’s attack . On the third time, it blasted through his opponent’s runic s.h.i.+eld and stopped less than an inch from his head .
A drop of blood fell from the senior disciple’s head . That quiet sound struck like a hammer in all the senior disciples’ hearts .
