After defeating Zhang Ye with ten punches, Xiao Chen successfully obtained the final slot.
In this battle, Xiao Chen did not reveal anything. Xiao Chen did not have to put in much effort to catch Zhang Ye's mistake.
He used his Divine Dragon War Body and the advantage of his physical body to suppress his opponent.
He didn't give Zhang Ye any chance to retaliate. When he activated his True Dragon Bloodline, Zhang Ye's eyes lit up.
When Xiao Chen activated his True Dragon bloodline, the outcome was already decided.
There was no chance to reverse the situation. Although Xiao Chen could not defeat his opponent with one sword strike and chop off his opponent's arms, it was shocking.
He could not compare to Fang Tianyi, Qin Yan, and the other noble clan scions, who fought brilliantly.
However, with his middle-stage Star Venerate cultivation and the advantage of his physical body, Xiao Chen easily defeated a Holy Venerate. Similarly, everyone's eyes lit up in shock.
A low cultivation was a disadvantage and an advantage at the same time.
"Congratulations on passing the test and becoming a Heaven Dragon Palace core disciple. Xiao Chen, Xiao Jinyu, step forward! "
Elder Tian Yun said indifferently as he swept his gaze across the crowd from his throne.
Everyone's gaze immediately focused on Xiao Chen and Xiao Jinyu.
The atmosphere turned somewhat heavy. Everyone knew what Elder Tian Yun's words meant. Elder Tian Yun wanted to choose one of the two to be his disciple. "Whoosh!
Whoosh! "
Xiao Chen and Xiao Jinyu moved past the crowd and arrived at the front, facing Elder Tian Yun.
"How hateful! To think that Elder Tian Yun chose this Xiao Chen. How am I inferior to this fellow?"
"Although Xiao Chen is not strong now, he has great potential. What Elder Tian Yun saw in him is his potential. "
"However, his weakness is also rather obvious. Elder Tian Yun is still overestimating Xiao Chen by comparing Xiao Jinyu to him. "
Of the remaining eight people, some felt dissatisfied, while others analyzed objectively.
The older-generation core disciples at the side showed somewhat complicated expressions. Not only did these people directly pass the test and become core disciples, but they also became core disciples.
If they were fortunate enough to gain the attention of a heaven-class Elder, they would feel even more disappointed.
Xiao Jinyu had a radiant smile on his face. He did not hide his sharpness and confidence at all.
"The two of you, exchange one move!"
Elder Tian Yun did not say what would happen after the palm strike. He only said that the two would exchange one move.
The two bowed to Elder Tian Yun first before bowing to each other. Then, they sized each other up.
"The heavens have granted my wishes. I was a little unhappy just now. Why didn't you fight me? Now I finally have the chance. "
Xiao Jinyu clearly brooded over Xiao Chen surpassing him in the second stage.
Now, he had finally found an opportunity. A hint of excitement flashed across his eyes.
When facing Xiao Jinyu's strong aura, Xiao Chen smiled faintly and easily resolved it. "You are really confident. In that case, make your move. Let me see where your confidence comes from."
"Arrogance comes with a price!"
Xiao Chen's attitude enraged Xiao Jinyu. He snorted coldly and ferociously thrust the sword in his hand.
Just like that, the scabbard was inserted into the floor that was paved with divine materials. Rubble flew up, and cracks spread out.
The sword intent on his body spread out wantonly, and a terrifying sword wind blew out from his body.
Berserk Sword!
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Jinyu's figure flickered, shocking everyone. His speed was even faster than that sword wind.
Jian Feng had clearly flown out first, but in an instant, he had appeared in front of Jian Feng.
The scabbard stabbed into the floor was empty. At some point in time, the sword was already in Xiao Jinyu's hand.
Xiao Jinyu, who was in front of the sword wind, moved later but arrived first. He infused the strong wind containing the boundless sword intent into this sword strike.
This sword strike was even more profound than the one Xiao Jinyu executed in the arena earlier.
Xiao Jinyu used an exquisite technique to infuse all his aura into this sword strike in one breath, even though he did not store up any power.
The rarest thing was that he did not slow down the speed of his sword strike even after achieving such a great momentum.
Xiao Jinyu used his body as a cauldron to communicate with the power of the universe.
"Sharp Spirit Finger!"
Xiao Chen remained as calm as before. He circulated his Veritable Essence Energy, Vital Qi, and Soul Energy, merging them into one and filling his entire body. He forged his body into an unchanging ancient cauldron. Then, he waved his hand and caught Xiao Jinyu's sword with two fingers.
"Whoosh!"
The instant Xiao Chen caught the sword tip, the three vast energies in Xiao Chen's body connected to the power of the world and solidified this space.
No matter how much force Xiao Jinyu exerted, he could not budge his sword at all.
The vast energy formed by the fusion of Veritable Essence Energy, Vital Qi, and Soul Energy filled Xiao Chen's entire body. Xiao Chen's physical body endured immense pressure and could crumble at any moment. He needed to pour out this energy.
"Dang!"
Xiao Jinyu gently tapped with his finger, and this energy surged out along the sword tip. His entire body trembled, and blood leaked out of a corner of his lips.
Xiao Jinyu's physical body went flying. After he landed, he took three steps back before he could stabilize himself.
As Xiao Jinyu held his sword, he felt somewhat at a loss. He did not know what Martial Technique Xiao Chen executed earlier.
"You are merely so-so."
Xiao Chen smiled as he looked at Xiao Jinyu with his hands behind his back.
Xiao Jinyu flushed red, feeling dissatisfied. Just as he prepared to attack again, Elder Tian Yun raised his hand and stopped the two.
Elder Tian Yun said coldly, "I said, only one move."
"This junior knows his mistake."
Xiao Jinyu startled to his senses and sheathed his sword, quickly apologizing.
The place fell silent. Everyone focused their gazes on Xiao Chen. Everyone was still immersed in the miraculous scene from earlier. "Xiao Jinyu, are you willing to take this old man as your master?"
Who knew, to Elder Tian Yun's surprise, his gaze lingered on Xiao Chen for only a second before shifting to Xiao Jinyu.
Xiao Jinyu, who startled awake from the shock, was stunned for a moment before saying joyfully, "I would be extremely happy to. Thank you, Master, for granting me this!"
Xiao Jinyu directly knelt on one knee and performed the ritual of taking a master.
This set the others abuzz. They could not understand why Elder Tian Yun made such a choice.
However, after a while, they understood.
Bloodline!
Xiao Chen had a mixed-blood dragon bloodline, and Xiao Jinyu had a Grade 5 True Dragon bloodline. The difference was too great. After careful consideration, Elder Tian Yun made this decision in the end.
"Everyone, step forward. I will give you the core disciple identity tokens!"
Fang Tianyi and the other eight took turns to step forward and receive their identity tokens. At this moment, Xiao Jinyu already recovered his emotions and stood beside Elder Tian Yun.
However, there was still a shadow on Xiao Jinyu's face. Clearly, the earlier exchange had left a knot in his heart.
When it was Xiao Chen's turn, Elder Tian Yun glanced at Xiao Chen. Then, he formed a hand seal with his right hand.
"Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen's body trembled. In a moment of carelessness, he felt that a trace of his soul had been extracted.
However, Xiao Chen did not panic. Elder Tian Yun had extracted a trace of the soul of the people before him as well.
Xiao Chen needed to infuse his soul into his identity token to forge a unique identity mark that belonged to him.
Xiao Chen received his identity token and took a look. The back of it happened to have the words "Xiao Chen." Xiao Chen felt slightly startled.
Fortunately, Tang Dan's identity for him was that of a Xiao Clan disciple.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to match the information contained in his soul, which would have exposed him.
"Do you know why I did not choose you?"
Elder Tian Yun asked Xiao Chen softly from his throne, not caring about these details.
"I do not know. There is no need to know. In any case, Senior will definitely regret it. "
Xiao Chen put away his identity token and did not say anything more to Elder Tian Yun, simply expressing his opinion.
Xiao Chen felt somewhat unhappy in his heart. No matter how he looked at it, his performance was better than Xiao Jinyu's.
To think that the other party still chose Xiao Jinyu.
As for the reason, Xiao Chen naturally knew. It was just his bloodline.
However, how he chose was up to him. Xiao Chen would not blame the other party. Time would prove everything.
His words frightened everyone present, and they didn't dare to make a sound.
Elder Tian Yun felt slightly stunned. Then, he smiled and said, "Jinyu, if you do not live up to expectations, I will really embarrass myself."
"Xiao Chen, you were disrespectful to my master. My master will not lower himself to your level. But this debt, I will get it back for my master. Just you wait. "
Xiao Jinyu said coldly as he looked at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen looked at the other party and smiled calmly. "Why wait? If you are willing, I can give you this opportunity now."
Under Xiao Chen's calm gaze, there was a startling pride hidden on his face.
Everyone suddenly discovered that this inconspicuous youth did indeed have a tyrannical air that did not belong to a Star Venerate.
If a regular Star Venerate said this, they would only become a laughing stock, a joke.
However, when Xiao Chen said this, no one dared to laugh. Invisibly, Xiao Chen's aura already affected them.
"You …"
Xiao Jinyu trembled in anger. However, when he thought of that strange move and looked at Xiao Chen's calm expression, he felt that the other party was unfathomable.
He did not feel confident of winning at the start, so he hesitated.
"Hahahaha!"
Seeing Xiao Jinyu's reaction, Xiao Chen laughed three times and turned to leave. "Elder Tian Yun, do you still think that you chose the right person?!"
Amidst his laughter, he floated away, leaving behind an arrogant and unruly silhouette.
