Chapter 68 (2/2)

Ling Yuxuan found that his fist had no feedback, so he instantly knew that he did not hit the real body. He turned around and felt a fierce wind coming at him. He then cast a Barrier with both hands in front of him to block Xiao Chen’s blow. He was shocked and thought Xiao Chen was not an ordinary disciple.

“I underestimated you.”

He suddenly ran all his True Energy into his arms and punched out. Xiao Chen parried away and pointed at his wrist. Ling Yuxuan felt his body was limp and numb all over and quickly took his hands back.

Xiao Chen’s move was as fast as lightning, so the audience did not see what had happened and just know that Ling Yuxuan took back his hands. However, Ling Yingfeng’s eyes were so sharp that he saw it and knew that his brother was hit.

Ling Yuxuan’s eyes turned cold. Facing an opponent with lower cultivation level, he failed to hit the target twice and could not touch his opponent at all. He was a bit upset about this. He then gave a battle cry while moving his fingers, and three rows of golden light suddenly appeared in the air, moving toward Xiao Chen. This was the Three Talents Formation of the Taoist.

The audience was shocked. They did not expect that he could cast out a formation with his own True Energy.

The Three Talents Formation emphasized the points of heaven, earth, and human. Most of Ling Yuxuan’s strength came from Ling Yingfeng, so the weakest point of this formation was the human point. Xiao Chen was so expert at formations, so he found out the weak point of this formation at first sight. He pointed at the human point of the formation, and a vacancy appeared in the Three Talents Formation as the other two rows of golden light disappeared immediately.

Upon seeing the formation was broken, Ling Yuxuan’s face changed. He ran his True Energy and attacked with a set of fist moves. Golden light burst out on the arena with constant crackles. The crowd held their breaths, waiting to see how Xiao Chen would avoid this rain-like fist shadows.

However, Xiao Chen did not want to dodge the attack. He channeled his True Energy into his palm and punched at the overwhelming fist shadows. The crowd gasped with cold air and thought this man acted in a brash way by doing this. People were worried about him.

Although Xiao Chen was in the midst of Ling Yuxuan’s aura, he was unstoppable. He looked just like a boat in the sea that rode on the waves. “Poom!” After breaking layers of body-protecting Qi, he punched at Ling Yuxuan’s chest.

Ling Yuxuan covered his chest and retreated. When he tried to run his True Energy, he felt his elixir field painful as hell, and his face suddenly looked ashen. The faces of Su Wan and the other people on the platform fell upon seeing this.

Xiao Chen knew that Ling Yuxuan’s True Energy was not cultivated on his own, so he secretly pushed some True Qi into Ling Yuxuan’s body. With three different kinds of Qi inside Ling Yuxuan’s body, he would definitely get backfired soon.

“You! What have you done to me!” Ling Yuxuan held his abdomen tightly with his face shifting between red and ashen and his forehead sweating.

Xiao Chen walked over and said lightly, “What’s not yours will never be yours!” As his voice fell, he was about to punch at Ling Yuxuan when the drum rang.

“The third quarter of noontime is now. The two participants will stop and continue at 3 p.m.!”

A figure flashed as Su Wan landed on the arena. She glared at Xiao Chen and then helped Ling Yuxuan off the arena. Xiao Chen smiled coldly and flew to Huangfu Xin’er.

Huangfu Xin’er took out a silk scarf from her chest and wiped off the sweat on his forehead, asking, “Are you alright?”

Xiao Chen smelled the aroma from the scarf and was suddenly refreshed. He smiled and said, “I’m fine.” He just worried about Xiao Han and Murong Yan.

When they went to the back hall to rest, Xiao Chen saw Huangfu Xin’er frowning. He said with a smile, “It’s okay. Don’t worry.”

Huangfu Xin’er raised her head and said, “Let’s just give up. They will definitely…” Xiao Chen interrupted. “Trust me. I’m fine.”

“Can you tell me who you are exactly?”

Xiao Chen took a deep breath and said, “Believe me. Even if everybody in the Skygale Sect was against you, I wouldn’t.”

Two hours later, the drums and cheers rose from the square again. Xiao Chen felt Ling Yuxuan’s aura had surged, reaching to that of a Foundation Building Realm cultivator which was far stronger than before. He thought, “I’m afraid that I can’t hide my strength anymore.”

With the ring of the gongs and drums, Ling Yuxuan launched his attack first. He charged to Xiao Chen and punched out. “So fast.” Xiao Chen parried away and thought. Before he could react again, he felt a gust of wind coming from his back—Ling Yuxuan went around behind him.

“Bam!” Xiao Chen cast out a True Energy shield that blocked the blow, and he was sent flying backward for tens of meters. Before he could steady himself, he felt like numerous figures had surrounded him. He then tapped with his foot to rise to the air tens of meters. When he felt a pressure above his head, he looked above and saw three rows of golden light falling to him.

He could not borrow force in the air, so he fiercely blew with his mouth to let him fly backward. All of a sudden, he felt the pain on his back—he was kicked by Ling Yuxuan.

The audience exclaimed incessantly. Within two hours, Ling Yuxuan’s strength had improved this much. Huangfu Xin’er’s brow furrowed tightly. Su Wan sneered and said, “Junior Sister, it seems like your little disciple will definitely lose.”

Huangfu Xin’er glared at her and said, “Blood-firing Pill is forbidden in a competition. You’re so mean!”

Su Wan snorted and said, “Mean? Humph! After Senior Brother Qin left, you are having a romance with this little disciple of yours.”

Huangfu Xin’er turned pale and said, “Nonsense!”

“Humph, nonsense? Why are you afraid of me saying this?”

On the arena, Xiao Chen was beating continuously. He glanced at the platform and found Huangfu Xin’er quarreling with Su Wan, when Ling Yuxuan kicked at his chest again.

Ling Yuxuan approached him and smiled with pride. “What, are you going to continue? I’m the Young Master of Ling Family in the Violet Manor, and I’ve got infinite extraordinary pills. You? What are you? Degenerates like you in this Human World, you will never have the chance to rise! Die!” As his voice fell, he ferociously kicked at Xiao Chen’s face.

Xiao Chen retreated meters back to dodge this heavy kick. His heart sank and realized that his opponent had taken some forbidden pills. In this case, he could not hide his strength anymore.

All of a sudden, there were gusts of wind whistling on the stage. Around Xiao Chen, a faint white radiance appeared. The crowd under the arena exclaimed, “What’s going on?”

“Has he hidden his strength before?”
