"He's too arrogant! Who does he think he is? How dare he fight Wu Kuangren while sitting down?" a Grand Era Hall disciple from the Sky Firmament Academy shouted indignantly.
"Even Fan Changkong and the other two from the Divine Era Hall wouldn't be so arrogant when they fought Wu Kuangren!" A Sky Firmament Academy disciple from the Sky Firmament Academy said coldly, "In the entire Eastern Region, no one among the younger generation of the East Spirit Lower Prefecture would dare to be so arrogant!"
"I think it's more likely that he's bluffing!" A Sky Firmament Academy disciple from the Sacred Era Hall sneered. "Wu Kuangren took the initiative to invite him three or four times before he reluctantly agreed!"
"Now that he finally agreed, he's not standing up. Is he trying to find an excuse for his failure?"
"I think so!" Another Sky Firmament Academy disciple from the Sacred Era Hall sneered. "If he loses to Wu Kuangren later, he can say that he's sitting down!"
"I have to say, this is an excellent excuse!"
"Hehehehe!"
....
Cold laughter filled every corner of the Nine Dragon Peak. The temperature on the Nine Dragon Peak dropped below freezing point, chilling everyone to the bone.
However, Lian Xi was the only one who did not laugh. She just stared at Xiao Fan.
After War God Brightshore's new disciple recruitment, Thousand Pine City's Crown Prince Alliance, and the incident with Ning Shuang a few days ago, Lian Xi had every reason to believe that Xiao Fan's strength was extremely shocking.
When Xiao Fan said that he wasn't interested in fighting with Wu Kuangren, others would think that he didn't dare to fight with Wu Kuangren. However, Lian Xi believed that Xiao Fan really wasn't interested in fighting with Wu Kuangren.
Due to the difference in their levels, what seemed normal and natural to the people on the upper level was unimaginable and unbelievable to the people on the lower level. It was simply arrogant to the extreme.
Everything stemmed from the asymmetry of information!
Now that Xiao Fan finally made a move, Lian Xi believed that she could see more from Xiao Fan's attack and figure out the many mysteries surrounding Xiao Fan.
"Come!" Xiao Fan spoke again and gestured to Wu Kuangren.
"Then I'll offend you!" Hearing Xiao Fan's words, although Wu Kuangren was also surprised, he no longer hesitated. His eyes narrowed as he spoke. Then, he suddenly stomped on the ground and charged toward Xiao Fan.
"Rumble!" "Rumble!" "Rumble!"
Suddenly, the entire Nine Dragon Peak trembled violently under Wu Kuangren's stomp. Countless boulders rolled rolled down the mountain, causing deafening ear-piercing screams.
At this moment, Wu Kuangren had transformed into a prehistoric giant beast. His body was surrounded by a monstrous aura of extreme Yin that swept across the entire Nine Dragon Peak, devouring everything in its path.
Looking at Wu Kuangren's terrifying aura, the surrounding Sky Firmament Academy members were inexplicably excited. Many of them could not help but open their mouths and cheer for Wu Kuangren.
This was Wu Kuangren!
This was the number one expert of the Sky Era Hall!
With such power, who could possibly be a match for it?
However!
Upheavals always caught everyone off guard. Before the Sky Firmament Academy's members could make a sound, an upheaval had already occurred. Everyone who wanted to shout and cheer turned into utter shock and disbelief.
This was because Wu Kuangren had stopped abruptly when he was only three steps away from Xiao Fan. Moreover, all the power and aura on his body had disappeared without a trace. It was as if he had never appeared in the first place.
"You've already lost!" Xiao Fan said casually.
Dead silence!
Boundless dead silence spread out from the Nine Dragon Peak. At this moment, it was as if the entire Sky Firmament Academy had fallen into a deathly stillness.
In the sky, Qi Qiu, Sun Yan Yang, the Sky Firmament Academy's higher-ups, Long Zheng, and the Divine Era Hall's disciple all looked at Xiao Fan and Wu Kuangren in shock. They could not understand what had just happened. Why did Wu Kuangren suddenly stop and stop attacking? Why did Xiao Fan say that Wu Kuangren had already lost?
Why?
"Alright, let's go back!" Xiao Fan said to Wu Kuangren, who was frozen in place. His expression had returned to its usual calm state.
However, Wu Kuangren acted as if he did not hear Xiao Fan's words. He stood there motionless like a statue, as if he was unaware of everything that was happening around him.
"Wu Kuangren!"
Looking at Wu Kuangren who was frozen like a statue, the Sky Firmament Academy's higher-ups' faces changed. They had a bad feeling about this. Unable to hold it in any longer, they shouted and revealed themselves in the sky. They stretched out their hands and reached for Wu Kuangren's head.
However, before his hand could touch Wu Kuangren, an incomparably majestic and formless energy emanated from Wu Kuangren's body. Then, it actually forced his hand back.
At the same time, a small golden bell automatically emerged from Wu Kuangren's body and floated above his head. It emitted a faint golden light and was incomparably sacred. It shrouded Wu Kuangren within it and protected him!
"It's Wu Kuangren's Wisdom Bell!" Qi Qiu said as he looked down. His eyes were solemn as he said in a low voice, "This bell is protecting him!"
"That's not right!" One of the Sky Firmament Academy's higher-ups' faces changed. "The Wisdom Bell used to be one of the Sky Firmament Academy's heirloom treasures. Although its defense is unparalleled, even an invincible overlord would have to put in a lot of effort to break it!"
"However, this bell now has a great weakness, and that is that the spiritual consciousness of this bell was once shattered by someone. Now, only the body of the bell is left. Although its defense has not been reduced by much, its overall power has been reduced by too much!"
"In other words, the Wisdom Bell is already dead in a sense. It's no longer as mysterious as it used to be and can move on its own!"
"But now, the Wisdom Bell is protecting and moving on its own. How is this possible?"
"Although the Wisdom Bell's spiritual consciousness has been shattered, there is still a trace of it left. Right now, it should be the Wisdom Bell's last trace of spiritual consciousness that is controlling the Wisdom Bell to protect Wu Kuangren!" Sun Yanyang said solemnly.
"But that's still not right!" Another Sky Firmament Academy's higher-ups frowned and said, "It has been ten thousand years since the Wisdom Bell's spiritual consciousness was shattered. At least two or three inheritors have passed through it!"
"I clearly remember that one of the inheritors was ambushed and killed, but before he died, he didn't see the Great Wisdom Bell automatically appear to protect him. Instead, he watched as this inheritor fell into a pool of blood, dying from blood loss!"
"Moreover, that person had nurtured the Bell of Wisdom for over a thousand years. He had long established the most intimate connection with the final strand of the Bell of Wisdom's consciousness. He was able to display around fifty percent of the Bell of Wisdom's might!"
