In this vast region, figures were faintly discernible at the edges of the distant sky as they continued to hide the sky and cover the earth as they shot over. As of now, it was clear that this region had already become the most prominent place within the entire Great Spiritual Academy Tournament.
Various powerful groups were now standing in the air, with all of their gazes focused towards the stretch of area before them. To be precise, they were all trained towards the thin figure clad in black lightning bolts.
They were able to clearly sense the dense killing intent radiating from the figure. Such killing intent appeared to have caused the temperature of the entire region to drop by quite a bit.
That was Mu Chen.
“He has finally arrived…” Whispers quietly rang out as the gazes from everyone in the region converged.
“If he had arrived just a bit later, that Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy group would have been completely wiped out.”
“Ji Xuan and his group are truly vicious in their actions…”
“From the looks of it, there won’t be an easy conclusion to this matter.”
“Ji Xuan’s not easy to be dealt with. Although that Mu Chen’s fame and reputation has been skyrocketing recently, can he really match up to Ji Xuan? His cultivation seems to only be at Spiritual Energy Disaster…”
“…”
Whispering noises incessantly continued to ring out, while everyone’s gazes had converged on the two main characters present within the region. Anyone would be able to sense that an intense fight that would shock everyone present would erupt in this region today.
Under the attentive gazes of everyone, Mu Chen had a hand wrapped around Mu Feng’s throat while standing within the caved-in ground present below, appearing just like a prey within the talons of an eagle. Furthermore, the killing intent radiating from his body informed everyone that if he were to unleash a killing blow, he would absolutely show no mercy nor remorse.
Being within Mu Chen’s grasp, Mu Feng’s face had already turned ashen, with the blood dripping from the corner of his mouth causing him to look somewhat miserable. A venomous and unwilling gaze shot from him towards Mu Chen. Due to the latter taking such quick action, he was unable to muster any defenses, causing him to become instantly suppressed by the latter.
He absolutely didn’t believe that Mu Chen would be able to suppress him in a head-on confrontation!
Su Xuan was staring at the figure standing not too far away from her. It had been more than half a year since she had seen him, yet he appeared to have not changed much, merely that his originally handsome and gentle face had appeared somewhat more healthy and robust. Perhaps, due to the vast killing intent radiating from his body, he appeared exceedingly sharp and incisive, just like an extraordinary divine spear standing tall within the heavens and earth.
Wiping away the bloodstain at the corner of her mouth, Su Xuan’s originally tense heart started to slowly calm down. The youth before her appeared to cause people to have boundless confidence in him, causing them to feel calm and steady in his presence.
Panning his head over, Mu Chen looked towards Su Xuan. As his malevolent gaze started to turn gentle, he said, “Senior Sister Su Xuan, are you alright?”
Hearing that, Su Xuan shook her head. Turning her head to look towards He Yao and Yang Lin, her eyes turned reddish as she said, “But they’re seriously injured.”
Having his hand chopped off by Mu Feng earlier, blood continued to flow out from He Yao’s severed stump. At this moment, Yang Lin was completely covered in blood, giving off an exceedingly miserable appearance. Nevertheless, upon seeing Mu Chen’s appearance, the both of them heaved a great breath of relief.
Hearing her reply, Mu Chen apologetically nodded his head towards them.
Squirming his body, He Yao leaned against a rock. Sending a smile with much difficulty towards Mu Chen, he asked, “How confident are you?”
What he meant was naturally about how confident Mu Chen was to deal with the situation before them. After all, he was extremely clear about exactly how tyrannically strong Ji Xuan’s group was.
“With me here, they’ll not be able to hurt you all,” replied Mu Chen in a soft voice.
“I’ll leave it to you, then…” He Yao slowly replied with a nod as he looked towards the exceedingly dazzling youth before his eyes.
Slightly nodding, Mu Chen proceeded to raise his head up. At this moment, his gaze turned emotionless and indifferent as he looked towards the figure present not far away from him.
The figure standing over there had also casted his gaze over at the same time.
As their eyes interlocked, the ice-cold killing intent gushing from within appeared to have caused even the air to start freezing.
“You’ve finally arrived, Mu Chen,” said Ji Xuan in a soft voice, with his hands similarly tightly grabbing onto the throats of Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong.
“I came here to see what great show you’ve prepared for me. Would it be even more spectacular than last time?” replied Mu Chen with a faint smile.
Hearing that, Ji Xuan started smiling as he said, “It shouldn’t leave you disappointed.”
“I very much anticipate it,” replied Mu Chen slowly.
“Release Mu Feng!” Fierce cries rang out across the sky as the three remaining members of the Saint Spiritual Academy group darkly stared at Mu Chen. Powerful Spiritual Energies gushed from their bodies as they covetously stared at Mu Chen.
The cultivation realm of all three of them was at First Grade Spirit Disaster. Although they were inferior to Mu Feng, they were absolutely not weak. Despite this, Mu Chen appeared to have completely ignored the roars coming from them.
“Hmph!”
Seeing this, the eyes of the trio turned ice-cold. Exchanging glances with one another, they each sent a palm patting out seemingly at the same instant. Boundless Spiritual Energies swept from them, transforming into Spiritual Energy palm prints that started to press down towards Mu Chen.
Despite this, Mu Chen appeared to have not moved even an inch.
Swish!
