As expected, Yu Chenglong advanced and Gu Maolu made it into the top two hundred. However, the most surprising thing was that Bai Ying was defeated.
"It's my bad luck to meet a strong opponent from the past."
Bai Ying shook his head with a bitter smile. He could only blame the poor grouping. Bai Ying, who originally had the chance to make it into the top fifty, was eliminated in the first round.
In the second round, Jiang Chen did not feel any pressure at all. Gu Maolu followed closely behind him and both of them made it into the top hundred.
In the third round, Gu Maolu was defeated, but he still had the chance to make it into the top hundred. He just needed to fight another battle.
In the fourth round, Jiang Chen's opponent became stronger. He was a Peak Late Divine King, not any weaker than the Jiang brothers.
"You're a freshman?"
The man who was fighting Jiang Chen frowned and said in a deep voice.
"You know me?"
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised.
"You're actually indifferent to me, the Thunderbolt Hand Cui Yan. In other words, you don't even know of my existence. There's only one explanation. You're a freshman."
Cui Yan sneered.
"I'm ranked sixty-sixth on the Heaven Ranking. I'm the Thunderbolt Hand Cui Yan."
"I don't know you."
Jiang Chen shook his head.
Cui Yan's expression became uglier and uglier. This guy doesn't give me any face at all. Being ranked sixty-sixth on the Heaven Ranking, that's a powerful existence. Even Yu Chenglong is only twenty to thirty places behind him.
"You're just a freshman. Do you think you can do whatever you want after winning a few rounds? I'll teach you a lesson today. I hope you won't say the word 'surrender' in front of me. "
Cui Yan said with a deep voice. How many of the top hundred on the Heaven Ranking were easy to deal with? If he didn't teach Bai Ying a lesson today, what would happen to his reputation as the Thunderbolt Hand?
"I'm afraid Jiang Chen's next round won't be easy."
Bai Ying said.
"That's right, the Thunderbolt Hand Cui Yan. This person is even more ruthless than the Jiang brothers. I hope that Jiang Chen can hold on. If he really can't hold on, then he can only settle for the next best thing. As long as there's life, there's hope."
Gu Maolu also had a grave expression on his face. Although Jiang Chen had killed the Jiang brothers, there were many people more powerful than the Jiang brothers. In the outer sect, there were many people who liked to cultivate in seclusion, and although some of them might not be able to enter the Heaven Ascension Rankings, their strength wasn't weak at all.
"Given Cui Yan's strength, I will need to defeat him within fifty moves at the very least."
Yu Chenglong said indifferently. Obviously, he had an extremely high evaluation of Cui Yan. How could he be an ordinary person if he could make Yu Chenglong treat him like this?
"It's not that easy to enter the top ten. Many experts chose to avoid it, hoping to shock the world with a single feat. Among the people I faced before, there were a few whose strength was inferior to Jiang Tian. "
Yu Chenglong shook his head. With so many experts gathered, it was fine if they didn't make a move, but they would shock the world with a single feat. Many geniuses understood the dao of forbearance, and unless they had no other choice, they would not make a move. The rewards this time around were extremely generous, and it had also attracted many geniuses to come out of seclusion.
"Make your move."
Jiang Chen calmly said, completely not putting Cui Yan in his eyes.
"Arrogant and conceited junior. In today's battle, I, the Thunderbolt Hand Cui Yan, will definitely take your dog life."
Cui Yan roared in rage. He was already used to the feeling of being high and mighty. Now that he was being slighted by a freshman, one could very well imagine the rage in his heart.
"Noisy."
Jiang Chen's brows were tightly furrowed. He took a step forward, and lightning coiled around him. The wind and clouds rose, and his aura was like that of a dragon.
As Jiang Chen's fists and palms moved about, the wind howled and the waves of qi surged, giving Cui Yan an extremely great pressure.
"Come at me!"
Cui Yan's eyes lit up, and he shouted with a deep voice. Wielding the Nine-chi Mountain-splitting Blade, his long beard swayed like the wind, and his long blade was like a rainbow, cutting off Jiang Chen's path of retreat.
Jiang Chen's methods were extraordinary. At this moment, no one had thought that he would fight Cui Yan bare-handed without even taking out a God Artifact.
"Isn't Jiang Chen a little too arrogant?"
Yu Chenglong frowned. Cui Yan was not some nobody. For Jiang Chen to treat him like this, did he really have the ability? Or was he too full of himself?
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Chen advanced by retreating. The wind from his palm swept out, and the force of his fist forced Cui Yan back. An inch shorter meant an inch of danger, but in Jiang Chen's eyes, Cui Yan's fist was even more terrifying than any treasured weapon.
"Neon Seizing the Moon!"
Cui Yan brandished his long blade in an imposing manner. Qi waves rolled out from the place where his long blade was pointing. The momentum of his blade was ferocious, not giving Jiang Chen any chance to retreat at all. With this breath, Cui Yan's blade light disappeared without a trace. Many people were looking at this scene. After all, Cui Yan's reputation was quite high. Although he might not be able to enter the top ten in the outer sect, he could easily enter the top twenty.
"Jiang Chen has lost."
Yu Chenglong shook his head, because Cui Yan's force of his blade had already appeared. It was as violent as a dragon, and its momentum could devour the mountains and rivers. It was invincible. Once this blade slashed out, the world would change color.
"Cui Yan's strength is too terrifying."
"Yeah, the name of the Thunderclap Hand is not for nothing. If this guy takes this blade head-on, he might be heavily injured, or even die …"
Some people could not help but worry for Jiang Chen.
"Jiang Chen!"
Gu Maolu gritted his teeth. Was this guy really going to lose? If he really lost, it would not be a shameful thing, but if he died, it would be too much of a waste.
Everyone broke out in a cold sweat for Jiang Chen, but Jiang Chen's expression was calm, without the slightest hint of fear. He stretched out his hand, and the blade light in his hand pierced through the wood. Jiang Chen clenched his fist, and the golden blade light almost instantly distorted. The nine feet sharp blade shattered inch by inch, and splashed everywhere, causing a burst of exclamations.
Jiang Chen's expression was dark and calm. He turned his palm into a fist, and directly pierced through the void. Cui Yan was completely dumbfounded. His strongest blade was easily neutralized by Jiang Chen. Even his nine feet sharp blade, a Primordial Spirit weapon, was completely shattered by Jiang Chen. How hard was his fist? How strong was it?
Cui Yan sucked in a breath of cold air. Jiang Chen's fist landed 0.01 centimeters in front of him, and instantly stopped. However, Cui Yan's expression had already changed completely. Sweat poured down like rain, and the god of death flashed in front of him in an instant.
"I … I've lost …"
Cui Yan found it hard to believe, but he was very clear that this fist of Jiang Chen could definitely take his life. However, Jiang Chen actually stopped, and retracted it freely. Other than being strong and fierce, his control over his strength was also shocking.
"Thank you …"
Cui Yan's face was flushed, but it was not because of anger, but because of rejoicing. It was a fear that lingered in his heart. Jiang Chen's strength was too terrifying, and he was definitely not his opponent. Moreover, it was as if he was crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood, and he had no strength to resist. This time, it could be said that he had suffered a double loss, and even his Primordial Spirit weapon was destroyed by Jiang Chen. The only thing worth rejoicing about was that Jiang Chen showed mercy and let him go, and his little life was saved.
"Cultivation is not easy, take care."
