novelWho Is Honored, I Am Honored
| ← Ch.1929 | Ch.1931 → |
Xiao Chen looked around. More than ten groups surrounded him.
Of the many groups, there were two that were the strongest. The first was Yi Qianyun's. His group had the most core disciples, nearly a hundred people.
The second was Zhang Ye's. While it did not have many people, they were all strong veteran core disciples.
There were also the groups belonging to Xiao Jinyu, Qin Yan, and Fang Tianyi, the core disciples that joined the Heavenly Dragon Palace with Xiao Chen. These rich clan disciples had developed very quickly in the past half-year.
With enough time, these people would inevitably surpass Yi Qianyun.
Aside from these groups, there were many core disciples who woke up from the chaos. When they saw this scene, they came to their senses and sought out a group of their own in a fluster, resulting in more groups surrounding Xiao Chen.
A rough count came to at least a thousand people.
The majority of the core disciples had been directly eliminated in the first wave of chaos.
For some reason, Elder Tian Yun raised his hand, not letting the other heaven-class Elders interrupt.
"Elder Tian Yun, this..."
The other elders tried to say something. Elder Tian Yun said indifferently, "Just observe quietly for any changes. Since the Palace Masters did not send any instructions, we do not need to act on our own initiative."
"Yes."
The Second Palace Master and the Third Palace Master had indeed instructed the Elders to cause chaos only once. That was because they did not expect the situation before them now.
—
On the Heavenly Dragon Palace's main peak, the two Palace Masters stood side by side, looking into the distance and feeling slightly shocked.
The Second Palace Master wanted to order the heaven-class Elders below to cause the core disciples in the arena another round of chaos.
Just as the Second Palace Master was about to speak, the Third Palace Master stopped him, then said, "There's no need. I've thought about it. Letting him become a heaven-class core disciple might not be a good thing. We might as well let him wait for three years."
The Second Palace Master thought for a while and concluded that it made sense. With Xiao Chen's potential, he could afford to wait for three years.
Three years later, Xiao Chen's potential would definitely completely erupt. By that time, his accomplishments would be high when he entered Ancestor Dragon City.
The most important thing was that Xiao Chen could use these three years to practice the Supreme Dragon Fist.
Xiao Chen's safety would be even more certain.
The factions of various sizes in the arena carefully eyed Xiao Chen. At the same time, they worried that their formation would be disrupted again.
Unexpectedly, the various Elders did not show any intention of breaking the formation, even after a long time.
A smile slowly appeared on Yi Qianyun's face. He said seriously, "Xiao Chen, it looks like the Elders also do not want to see a mixed-blood dragon become a heaven-class core disciple. Just jump off yourself. Save us from having to attack and cause you problems."
The leaders of the other factions all showed playful expressions. Regardless of whether Yi Qianyun's words were true or not, at the very least, the heaven-class Elders did not disrupt their current formation.
The implicit meaning was worth thinking about.
They do not want me to become a heaven-class core disciple?
Xiao Chen does not know how true that was. His expression did not change, but he felt a flicker of rage in his heart. Why?
Xiao Chen looked at Yi Qianyun coldly and said, "I'll just stand here. Let's see how you are going to make me jump off."
"Kill him!"
Seeing Xiao Chen's uncaring expression, Yi Qianyun snorted coldly. Immediately, ten-odd people charged at Xiao Chen.
Knowing that Xiao Chen was incredible, these people sent out their Holy Venerate Wills and merged them into one. The Holy Venerate Wills became like a vast mountain range that instantly encased Xiao Chen.
If it were in the past, Xiao Chen would fear these Holy Venerate Wills. After all, his cultivation was significantly lower.
However, Xiao Chen already comprehended a trace of the Heavenly Dragon's mysteries. He now gave off a carefree and ethereal air.
He merged his Dragon Might with his Star Venerate Will and released it. The early-stage Holy Venerate Wills of the ten-odd people did not affect him that much.
"What's wrong? There is not much of an effect?"
The ten-odd Holy Venerates that charged over at the same time were stupefied to discover that Xiao Chen, who was encased by the combined wills of soul, could move about like the wind. He did not have to put in much effort to drift about, unaffected by the wills of soul.
"Die!"
Xiao Chen grabbed his saber's handle with his right hand and the saber scabbard with his left. Then, he yanked with his left hand.
The scabbard turned into a dim light and shot out. Before the leader of this group could see it clearly, the horrifying saber intent pierced through his chest, and he turned into a flash of flowing light, ejected by the formation.
The others turned their heads and looked. They saw only the light of their leader vanishing, leaving them incredibly shocked.
However, when they turned their heads back, they met a flash of saber light. Blood spurted out from their necks, and they were likewise ejected.
"Clang!"
Xiao Chen turned around gently, and the Tyrant Saber happened to slide back into the scabbard that was still airborne and yet to fall to the ground, giving off a resonant saber hum.
Xiao Chen's actions were very fluid. Those who were weaker did not even see how he drew his saber.
The white-clad Xiao Chen just stood there with his saber in hand as if he never moved.
Xiao Chen looked at Yi Qianyun and said indifferently, "Yi Qianyun, your followers are all too weak."
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Xiao Chen only smiled faintly. However, this smile startled the group of people on Yi Qianyun's side into retreating several steps.
Yi Qianyun was somewhat embarrassed to discover that his followers were one hundred meters away from him.
"He is really fast. His Thunder Dao reached Great Perfection!"
Several people's eyes lit up. They saw one of the tricks behind Xiao Chen's saber strike, and they felt startled.
It was indeed the Great Perfection Thunder Dao. Otherwise, those ten-odd core disciples would have lasted more than one move.
Xiao Chen was simply too fast.
Damn it! Xiao Jinyu cursed in his heart. To think that this fellow actually comprehended his Thunder Great Dao to Great Perfection. Fortunately, it is only the Thunder Great Dao.
Compared to my Sword Great Dao, it is still weaker.
"Attack together! Do not give him a chance. We need to finish him off first. Otherwise, we won't stand a chance, " Xiao Jinyu shouted. Then, he led the disciples behind him to charge at Xiao Chen.
This saber strike exposed some of Xiao Chen's strength and reaffirmed the soundness of these people's decision to work together and eliminate Xiao Chen.
"Attack!"
Zhang Ye's cold face showed some changes. This veteran core disciple demonic genius also felt some threat from Xiao Chen.
"Thud! Thud! Thud!"
Everyone took action. In that instant, the remaining one-thousand-odd elite core disciples charged at Xiao Chen together.
To think that you really are not going to let me be a heaven-class core disciple. You are all too much!
To think that under such situations, these Elders are still not messing up these disciples' formation.
Xiao Chen's heart was already dead. He raged inside, Since you don't want me to succeed, I will succeed for you to see!
I have to obtain the heaven-class core disciple slot!
"Supreme Dragon Fist, Leaderless Dragons!"
Fortunately, these one-thousand-odd people were not unified. This gave Xiao Chen a chance. The Supreme Dragon Fist was most suitable for situations where one fought against many.
When Xiao Chen executed Leaderless Dragons, dragon roars immediately rang out in his body, and more than a thousand dragon-shaped strands of energy burst forth.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Zhang Ye, Xiao Jinyu, and the other outstanding talents immediately crushed some of these dragon-shaped energy bodies. However, most of the energy bodies caught many of the core disciples unprepared, turning the place chaotic.
The first wave of attacks from the one-thousand-odd core disciples had been overwhelming with an unparalleled aura, yet Xiao Chen actually managed to block it.
When the many cultivators watching the battle saw this scene, they could not help sucking in a breath of cold air.
However, how would Xiao Chen break the second wave?
There were still more than one hundred core disciples, who were not flustered. They continued crushing the dragon-shaped energy bodies and charging at Xiao Chen.
"Dance of the Brutal Snow!"
Zhang Ye drew the sword in his hand. His sword was actually a broken sword. When he sent out his killing move, the snow in the air turned into a sword dance that seemed incomplete but hid a mystery. As it surged out towards Xiao Chen, it radiated a horrifying aura.
"Dark Cloud Sword Technique!"
Xiao Jinyu turned into a flash of dim light. As his sword swept across the air, dark-jade-green sword images materialized in the air. This move merged perfectly with his Sword Great Dao, showing no openings at all.
Yi Qianyun shouted coldly, "Senior Dragon Art!"
Yi Qianyun's horrifying Holy Venerate Will turned solid, manifesting an ancient Heavenly Dragon cultivator holding a Heavenly Dragon Dagger-Axe. This cultivator had a powerful aura as he thrust his weapon at Xiao Chen.
[TL Note: A dagger-axe is a kind of ancient pole weapon. Here is a picture of it: i2. kknews. cc/SIG=nt0ofq/66o30001o639sro8p20n. jpg]
"Rock Dragon Burst!"
Heavenly images layered over each other.
More than one hundred people crushed the dragon-shaped energy bodies without hesitation. They all launched killing moves.
An overwhelming barrage of attacks flew over, covering the sky. Xiao Chen looked and saw that there was no way to escape at all.
The attacks all had horrifying mysterious phenomena and puissant auras.
Xiao Chen believed that he would die on the spot. Not even the formation would be able to save him. He would be blasted to pieces.
Damn it! I cannot die!
"Commanding the Dragons!"
Xiao Chen threw another punch, and the berserk dragons in the air immediately turned quiet. Boundless Dragon Might endlessly infused into him, making his aura soar. His body emanated a tyrannical air like that of a sovereign descending upon the world, subduing this group of dragons.
It's still not enough. Another punch!
Xiao Chen's face paled slightly as he clenched his teeth. He circulated his energy for the Supreme Dragon Fist and followed the lofty aspiration and tyranny in his heart as he punched again.
"Supreme Dragon Fist, Master of the World!"
With this punch, a burning war banner materialized. This war banner was incredibly heavy. A ponderous might and pressure traversed the obstruction of space and time and landed on the war banner, making the flame blazed stronger. No one dared to receive it.
Using the aura from Commanding the Dragons, Xiao Chen reached out and grabbed the war banner. His feet stopped. Then, he arduously slammed the war banner on the ground."Boom!" The entire arena trembled. The vast dueling plaza shook.
The berserk aura paused the attacks and killing moves of Zhang Ye and the one-hundred-odd people.
"Heavenly Dragon's rage!" Xiao Chen roared as he punched. He launched the burning war banner along with the rage in his heart.
Immediately, the various mysterious phenomena and sword moves were crushed by the war banner like it was sweeping through withered branches. Zhang Ye and the other one-hundred-odd people vomited a mouthful of blood, knocked into the air by the war banner at the same time.
This scene shocked all the spectators speechless.
The evil dragon rules. Why is he honored?
However, it was not over yet. Xiao Chen's anger had yet to subside, the lust for battle in his heart had yet to wane. He held his breath and punched again.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
This punch ignited the thousand-odd dragon-shaped energy bodies roaming in the air and blasted away all the core disciples fighting the dragon-shaped energy bodies.
Now, when Xiao Chen looked around, no one, aside from him, remained standing on the dueling plaza.
Who is honored? I am honored!
