"Rumble rumble...
The divine ring behind Long Chen swirled rapidly, auspicious mist erupted, and the violent aura made all paths tremble.
Long Chen's sudden eruption caught everyone off guard. The power Chu Gan displayed seemed so insignificant in front of Long Chen.
Chu Gan was slammed into the ground by Long Chen's palm, forming a huge pit. The entire arena was deformed by the blow, and everyone was stunned, staring at Long Chen in shock.
Long Chen's divine ring swirled behind him, stretching open heaven and earth. His black hair flew wildly like a demon god in rage, standing in the void, looking down at Chu Gan:
"Idiot, I've let you live so long just to see what other secret moves you have left. With your little strength, you dare to act arrogant?
If you can't even control this bit of power, sacrificing speed to increase your strength, no matter how strong your strength is, if you can't hit anyone, what's the point?
Do you think your power is strong now? Alright then, I'll show you what true power is. "
"Whew."
Long Chen's voice echoed through the void, like the roar of a god. Suddenly, his body vanished, and as he vanished, a ripple erupted in the spot where he had been.
As the ripples spread, Long Chen shot out like a meteor, rushing straight toward Chu Gan at lightning speed.
Chu Gan had just been slapped by Long Chen, his cheekbone sunken. Stars swirled in his mind, unable to tell east from west. He barely caught what Long Chen was saying when Long Chen had already rushed up to him and kicked him down.
Chu Gan instinctively spread his arms to resist. His arms glowed, and ancient beast patterns appeared, faintly echoing with the beast's roar.
"Boom!"
At that moment, Long Chen delivered a fierce kick, striking Chu Qian's arms. A thunderous explosion erupted from the arena. The once massive pit had shrunk to just a few hundred li due to the arena's self-healing power.
As Long Chen landed, the arena shattered once again. Endless debris churned like meteors, shooting in all directions. The howling wind was terrifying—if struck by the rocks, even these prodigies would be smashed to dust.
Seeing the boulders shoot out, the powerful ones instinctively try to dodge, but the flying stones crash hard against the barrier and shatter one after another.
However, the barrier was struck by such a terrifying force, trembling continuously as if it might shatter, making everyone's faces turn pale with fright.
Since the start of this tournament, countless fierce battles have been undertaken, but no one has yet been able to shake the barrier. However, Long Chen and the others have succeeded.
"Rumble rumble...
The arena exploded and slowly collapsed. People clearly saw Long Chen stepping on Chu Qian's arms, pressing down on him and causing him to sink downward. It seemed that Long Chen carried the power of a world that was impossible to resist.
Chu Gan's arms trembled, his clothes shattered, and people could see a pair of dark golden arm guards appearing on his arms.
On the armguard were ancient magical beast patterns. Runes swirled on the armguard, the beasts lifelike, and the vast divine might surged, shaking the void with a buzzing sound.
"This arm guard..."
"It's also a treasure."
"Oh my god, how does he possess so many treasures?"
When people saw Chu Qian's arm guard, they gasped in shock, filled with endless envy and jealousy. To have three treasures on one person—Chu Gan must be incredibly rich.
You have to understand, among the powerful beings present, ninety-nine percent aren't qualified to possess treasured artifacts, let alone one person owning three treasure artifacts. That's just too enviable.
"Boom boom...
The treasured artifact on Chu Gan's body shone brightly, radiating endless divine might. But Long Chen's foot struck down like a mountain or sea pressing down. Chu Gan frantically resisted, but was still forced to sink downward, unable to resist.
"So what if you have a treasured artifact? Long Chen had always suppressed it barehanded, still suppressing it—this is what a true master looks like. Someone sneered.
The treasures were dazzling and enviable. Seeing Chu Gan possess three treasures for protection and still being suppressed by Long Chen, the prodigies without these treasures admired Long Chen even more, while also looking down on Chu Gan.
The arena slowly sank, beginning to deform under the pressure of Long Chen's power. The sight was simply too shocking.
The disciples of the outer Lingxiao Academy cheered wildly, as their cheers drew countless powerful figures to join the cheers.
Because most of these cheerers lacked treasure protection and were desperate to defeat Chu Gan with their actions, proving with their actions that having money was nothing special and still being suppressed.
Because in most people's eyes, using treasures to bully others is considered cheating, but since they have no money, they can only curse behind their backs, with no way to do it.
So when they saw those who used treasures to suppress others, they all felt a deep hatred. Now that Long Chen was suppressing Chu Gan, they immediately sided with him and cheered for him.
Not only in the outer arena, but even inside, countless strong fighters cheered for Long Chen. There was an indescribable charm about Long Chen that made people want to watch him fight.
Meanwhile, Luo Bing, Luo Xue, Qin Feng, Bai Xiaole, and the others only joined in the cheers after others had cheered.
To have so many strong fighters both inside and outside the halls cheer and encourage one person at the same time is extremely rare, even in the history of the Kyushu Tournament.
Because at the Dao Debate Conference, Long Chen feared no authority, exposed the dark secrets, and won the admiration of countless powerful figures.
Later, he won the championship at the Dao Debate Conference, making a stunning debut as the youngest champion in the tournament's history, bringing honor to countless young disciples.
Now, Long Chen had fought his way here with his formidable strength, proving with his strength that his words were not empty talk. Unconsciously, he had become an idol in the hearts of countless young disciples, who made him their life goal.
Bai Shishi saw the inner and outer halls, where countless powerful figures shouted loudly for Long Chen, feeling extremely excited. She glanced at the outside, then at Long Chen inside, and before she knew it, a smile appeared on her pretty face.
Young Master Changchuan glanced at Bai Shishi, then at Long Chen, sighed softly, and a bitter smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Rumble rumble...
The arena where Long Chen and Chu Gan were was kept expanding. Suddenly, with a loud explosion, the arena expanded to its limit, actually swallowing up the neighboring arena.
In the neighboring arena, two people were fiercely battling. The moment the two arenas merged, the two powerful figures were struck by the terrifying fierce wind, blood spraying wildly, their bodies torn apart by the fierce wind, nearly shattered.
You have to understand, when the two arenas merge, those two were only on the edge of the battlefield—even at the edge, they were nearly wiped out in an instant.
Terrified, the two hurriedly activated the nameplate, abandoned the match, and fled directly.
Those two were quite unlucky. They used their bodies to show everyone the terror of the battlefield, but lost the right to continue the struggle.
However, the two were not upset. At least they knew how vast the gap between themselves and the true powerhouses was, so they wouldn't rush into the next round and be wiped out in a single strike.
"Bastard, you forced me into this."
Chu Gan had been suppressed all along, unable to break free. Suddenly, his face twisted with rage, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out, landing on the armguard. The guard was stained with Chu Qian's essence blood, and a fierce aura erupted instantly.
