The summit was exceptionally quiet. Everyone was dumbfounded as they looked at that slender figure that had appeared after the layers of dried blood shredded off his body, their eyes were filled with disbelief. No one could have expected that Mu Chen would actually manage to withstand the fearsome attack of the Divine Wood Lightning Dipper with his physical body.

“That’s too frightening.”

Everyone exchanged a glance with each other as they muttered. Just what level did that fellow’s physical body reach to be able to accomplish such a feat?

Under the lowered voices of discussions, Xue Tiandou’s facial expression was a little ugly. He stared at Mu Chen with a dark gaze. Although the two of them had withstood the lightning sea, the level of their success was categorized as many people had answers in their hearts. After all, he had borrowed the power of an external object, while Mu Chen depended on his physical body.

Although they did not talk about it, they would still feel that Mu Chen had surpassed Xue Tiandou in his accomplishment in the lightni]ng sea. Just this point alone was something that Xue Tiandou could not endure. He came from the Royal Family of the Blood God Clan, his status was something that Mu Chen could not be compared to. Now, he was actually suppressed by Mu Chen.

A smear of bloodlust flashed across Xue Tiandou’s eyes as he sinisterly looked at Mu Chen. “Formidable. I never expected you to have such a card hidden in your sleeves.”

“You’re flattering me.” Mu Chen said as he smiled indifferently.

Xue Tiandou shrugged his shoulders as he chuckled, “Now it’s interesting. If you died in it, you would have disappointed me. Luo Li’s eyesight isn’t so bad to such an extent.”

“Believe me, you will feel even more interested.” Mu Chen said honestly as he stared at Xue Tiandou.

“Really? Then I’ll have to stare With my eyes big and watch.” A smear of mockery rose from the corner of Xue Tiandou’s lips.

“You will have the chance.”

Mu Chen smiled and no longer bothered. With a tap of his feet, he had already flown out of the lightning sea and landed beside Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan.

“Are you alright?” Luo Li asked despite the fact that Mu Chen looked good.

Mu Chen smiled as he nodded. Both of his fists were tightly clenched as a smile rose from the corner of his lips. He could feel that his physical body had grown stronger again… The risk that he had taken before was the right path. Although it was painful, strength that was obtained through suffering was the genuine strength.

Mu Chen swept his gaze. Many people that had touched his gaze all shifted their eyes. There was respect in their eyes. Although the latter had only appeared to have Human Body Disaster in cultivation, they understood that not even Spiritual Energy experts could fight him. The physical body of that fellow was simply too powerful. They didn’t know how he cultivated it.

When Wang Zhong, Mo Yu and the rest had touched gazes with Mu Chen, their eyes were a little dark. However, Mu Chen paid no attention to them.

Wu Yingying’s gaze touched Mu Chen’s for an instant, before she turned her head with a cold expression. The hand that was tightly gripping onto her crescent blade had loosened. However, when she noticed her fine thoughts, she was stunned. Shortly after, she felt anger, why would she care about the life and death of a lecher?

Mu Chen’s gaze leaped through everyone as he gazed upon the great green palace. This area was already the front of the palace as green stone stairs before them had stretched to the palace.

This is the Divine Wood Academy. After all their time and efforts, they finally stood here.

When Mu Chen’s gaze was staring at the ancient palace, all those that had passed through the test of the lightning sea had also directed their gazes over. When they started out, there were thousands of teams and right now, there were only a hundred people.

The elimination rate was simply too alarming.

“Let’s go.”

Mu Chen was the first that charged out as his feet tapped on the stone stairs and charged straight towards the palace like an arrow that had been shot out.

Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan closely followed. At the same time, Xue Tiandou, Wang Zhong, Mo Yu and the rest had also turned into steaks of light as they flew out. The Divine Wood Academy was just before them, as long as they made that other step, they would be able to reach the most important place of the Divine Wood Palace.

Rustle!

Rapid breaks of wind resounded as the nearly hundred people present had pushed their speeds to their limits.

Under their speeds, the thousands of steps of stairs only took an instant for them to travel. Thereafter, Mu Chen stood on the summit as his gaze suddenly widened. The ancient palace was clear before his eyes.
