Jiang Ya and Qin Xuan sat in the stones square. They lifted their heads and glanced at Mu Chen, who was right in front of them.

Both of them had undetectable smirks on their faces. It had surprised them that Mu Chen did not pick the second option.

However, Jiang Ya and Qin Xuan did not bother too much about Mu Chen. Instead, they cast their gazes in the direction of the Tianhuang Clan Leader. The latter lowered his eyes and said calmly, “Since he asked for a challenge, both of you can take him up on it.”

Jiang Ya and Qin Xuan had a slight change in their expressions, upon hearing his words.

They were unsure why the Tianhuang Clan Leader wa asking both of them to take up the challenge at the same time, thinking to themselves, this lad has only a Sovereign Grade Six strength! How does it make sense to activate two persons in one battle?

“Qin Xuan, you lost half a stroke to me previously. So, this time you can take the first shot.” Jiang Ya looked at Qin Xuan with a faint smile.

He had a lazy look on his face, as he was not interested in this matter at all. Although the Tianhuang Clan Leader was ambiguous with his words, and there was nothing against the rules about having a battle ration of two against one, Jiang Ya still did not even consider it.

After all, it was a joke to have both of them dealing with a Sovereign Grade Six lad at the same time! Even if they won, there’d be nothing worth bragging about.

Qin Xuan raised his eyebrows. He was not happy, because he knew that Jiang Ya had only been lucky the previous time they’d matched up. If they were really to fight it out with all their might at their current states, it would be hard to predict the winner. Now, this fellow was making use of this fact to climb over him!

Although Qin Xuan was unhappy, he did not argue any further with Jiang Ya. After all, he did not see eye to eye with Mu Chen either. In the younger generation of the Nine Netherbird Clan, many people had a crush on Nine Nether, and he was one of them! Therefore, Qin Xuan did not have a good impression of Mu Chen, as he believed that Mu Chen had brought a stain on their clan.

Various thoughts passed through Qin Xuan’s head, as he walked out slowly under the watchful gazes of his clan members. He finally stopped a few yards in front of Mu Chen.

“If I were you, I would have stayed here quietly for 10 years. That would have been a smarter move,” said Qin Xuan calmly. He stood in front of Mu Chen, looking formally at him.

“Thank you for the suggestion,” Mu Chen said, seeming not to have heard the disparaging remarks. He gave a serious smile and cupped his fist. “Please enlighten me.”

“You don’t know what’s good for you,” said Qin Xuan, frowning when Mu Chen dismissed him so lightly.

His anger was growing. So, he did not say anything more.

He took a step out with force. All of a sudden, a powerful spiritual energy exploded from his body, like a raging storm. The spiritual energy contained extreme coldness. Then, the temperature declined rapidly, once it had exploded.

Frost could be seen, spreading from Qin Xuan’s feet. Within a few breaths, part of the square was completely covered with the frost.

Mu Chen could sense the powerful spiritual energy that had exploded from Qin Xuan’s body. His eyes narrowed. He recalled what Heavenly Sparrow Elder had said, seeing now that what he had said was true! Qin Xuan was definitely more formidable than Liu Qing!

If Liu Qing was at the peak of Sovereign Grade Six, Qin Xuan should be touching the Sovereign Grade Seven level. He possessed a strength that was even more violent than the Sovereign Grade Six.

If Mu Chen had not broken through to Sovereign Grade Six within these last two months, he would have had his hands tied by the oppression from this spiritual energy. However, as he had already achieved his breakthrough, his strength had improved tremendously, compared to two months ago.

Mu Chen’s eyes turned sharp, their gentleness having completely disappeared. He lowered both his hands and straightened his body like a spear. A fierce and robust momentum was exuded from him, while he remained still.

The space behind him was slightly twisted. His Sovereign Sea seemed to be showing. As his spiritual energy fluctuation spread, the ice that was rushing into his range melted rapidly.

“It seems like you have a few things up your sleeves.”

Sensing the spiritual energy fluctuation that was coming from Mu Chen, Qin Xuan smiled. He flicked his finger, and an endless snow fell from the sky.

Boom!

The next moment, Qin Xuan’s body exploded into a violent snowflake. The moment Qin Xuan disappeared, Mu Chen’s eyes sharpened. He quickly moved back, while a radiant golden light exploded from his body. He looked like a golden statue, with golden rays of light shining on his skin.

Mu Chen tried to retreat out of the snowfall region, but the snowflakes, which were chasing after him, suddenly sped up. The snowflakes then started to gather, regrouping into a dark figure.

Among the falling snowflakes, a cold ray beamed out and tore the space apart. The beam was pointing at Mu Chen’s back and was moving at lightning speed.

The attack was swift. Mu Chen could not turn back in time to defend himself against such a fast and furious offense. So, he could only let that icy beam hit his back with great force.

The light gathered and transformed into slender fingers, from which snowflakes seemed to be falling from the tips. A sharp and cold force was exuded, as if it could penetrate the void.

Qin Xuan appeared behind Mu Chen, his two fingers still pointed at him. He could see the frost starting to gather at Mu Chen’s back.

In no time, ice formed and covered Mu Chen’s entire body. He would soon be trapped in the ice, and Qin Xuan would then be able to control his life!

Qin Xuan shook his head in disappointment, after he hit Mu Chen with one shot. “He is really vulnerable…”
