Chapter 44: Battle against Jian Wushuang
"what!"
A scream reached everyone's ears.
Then one could see that the huge force sent Yan Zhe flying.
"puff!"
His face turned pale in an instant, he coughed up blood, and fell heavily to the ground not far away.
"what?!"
Actually, this scene only happened in two breaths.
When they reacted, everyone couldn't help but show a look of surprise on their faces.
"Yan Zhe was beaten so badly that he coughed up blood with just one punch?"
"Impossible! With his cultivation level of the first level of the Condensed Veins Realm, how could he defeat Yan Zhe's body-protecting spiritual power?"
Such a thing was obviously completely beyond everyone's expectations, and it was hard to believe it was true.
"His physique...is indeed extraordinary!"
In the audience, Ji Yanran's eyes flashed with a strange look.
She had previously guessed that Ji Chen must have a different physique.
The reason he was able to light up nine crystals in the entrance examination was not because of his cultivation, but because of the strength of his physical body, which was beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
Originally, Ji Yanran was still a little hesitant about this.
But now it seems that it is almost certain!
"Shh!"
While everyone was discussing it, Ji Chen strode forward on the stage and walked towards Yan Zhe.
The other party was beaten to the point of coughing up blood and lying on the ground seriously injured. He has not yet recovered.
Ji Chen snorted coldly, then stomped him to the ground.
"boom!"
Yan Zhe, who was about to get up from the ground, was pinned down again and unable to move.
"Remember?"
Ji Chen sneered, and his disdainful words reached Yan Zhe's ears, making him look extremely ugly.
In Yan Zhe's opinion, he was absolutely sure to win this battle.
But who could have imagined that the final outcome of the battle would be like this.
Now, being humiliated by Ji Chen in front of everyone, Yan Zhe was furious, but he was unable to struggle to get up.
"Remember, stay away from me next time you see me. Otherwise, I will beat you every time I see you."
After a cold snort, Ji Chen was too lazy to continue talking nonsense. As soon as he finished speaking, he kicked Yan Zhe directly off the stage.
"what!"
Yan Zhe let out a scream and coughed up blood again. His body fell heavily to the ground below the ring. After struggling for a few times, he fainted on the spot.
The winner is clear.
As the referee announced the result, the whole audience burst into an uproar.
Countless people couldn't help but gasp, their faces filled with shock.
"Yan Zhe actually lost?"
"Incredible, with the cultivation base of the first level of Condensing Veins Realm, he defeated a fifth level expert, this Ji Chen..."
Everyone was talking, and all eyes were focused on Ji Chen.
This is the biggest dark horse in this outer sect competition.
He was not favored by anyone from the very beginning, but he proved himself with practical actions.
Now, even a master like Yan Zhe was defeated. This result was completely beyond everyone's expectations.
Who could have imagined that in this outer sect competition, someone would be able to squeeze into the top 20 with the second level of Condensing Veins Realm cultivation and gain the qualification to enter the inner sect!
"The Yuhua Sect is about to rise. If this boy can be trained vigorously, he will surely lead the Yuhua Sect to regain its former glory in the future!" An old man from a certain sect said.
The older and more powerful men from all the major forces all had sharp eyes and envy on their faces.
"This guy……"
And somewhere in the audience, Liu Ruyan was a little shocked.
Of course she recognized Ji Chen.
When I was young, I beat him up and left him with a black eye and a swollen face.
Not long after that, she heard about Ji Chen's blocked spiritual sea.
In the following few years, this useless young master of the Ji family became a laughing stock to many people.
But who could have imagined that the current Ji Chen was not at all like the waste in the rumors. He even performed extremely well and became the most dazzling presence in this outer sect competition.
This was also completely beyond Liu Ruyan's expectations.
As a fellow native of Yangcheng, she naturally knew very well how despicable Ji Chen was in the past, and it was precisely because of this that Ji Chen's transformation made her even more shocked.
"What do you think, in this competition, how far can Ji Chen go in the end?"
"Judging from his current performance, it is not impossible for him to win the championship. After all, even a master like Yan Zhe was defeated by him."
Many people were discussing it, and at this moment, the topic almost all revolved around the name Ji Chen.
"It's unlikely that he will win. In addition to Yan Zhe, there are two other hot candidates in this competition, Su Wanyue and Jian Wushuang. Although Yan Zhe lost, the remaining two are not weaker than Yan Zhe."
"Yes, Ji Chen must have been extremely exhausted in the battle with Yan Zhe, and he has used all his trump cards. On the other hand, Jian Wushuang and Su Wanyue have never been able to use their full strength in the competition so far, and they are still in good shape. If he were to face these two, with Ji Chen's current state, he would have no chance of winning at all."
"To be able to reach this point with the first level of Condensing Veins Realm cultivation is already very outstanding. If nothing unexpected happens, after joining the inner sect, Ji Chen will definitely be able to receive the sect's full training. In the near future, he will be a famous figure in Yun Country!"
Many disciples spoke up, and envy could not help but show in their eyes.
The game is still on.
Soon, it was Ji Chen's turn.
When the referee called out his name, everyone in the audience burst into cheers.
Obviously, everyone wants to know where Ji Chen will stop in the end in this competition?
"The next match is between Ji Chen... and Jian Wushuang!"
The sound was not very loud, but it was heard extremely clearly throughout the venue.
"what?"
“It’s Jian Wushuang!”
Many people were shocked. “This is the first sword genius in Yuhua Sect in decades. He possesses superb sword skills. In terms of overall strength, even if he is in the inner sect, Jian Wushuang must be ranked in the middle!”
"Ji Chen's swordsmanship is also very good. This match may be very interesting!" Some people showed anticipation on their faces.
However, some people shook their heads and said, "Compared to Jian Wushuang, Ji Chen's swordsmanship is not good enough. He may not be able to survive more than ten strikes from Jian Wushuang."
"Is this Jian Wushuang really that strong?" Many people from other forces couldn't help but be surprised.
Although they had all heard of the name Jian Wushuang to some extent, based on Ji Chen's previous performance, how could he not be able to block even ten swords from the opponent?
Is this a bit too exaggerated?
"This man's attainments in swordsmanship cannot be underestimated. It is said that before he joined the Yuhua Sect, the Sword Sect had tried to recruit him twice, but Jian Wushuang refused both times and ultimately chose the Yuhua Sect." Someone spoke up.
The Sword Sect is the strongest sword sect in the Yun Kingdom, and is based on the sword.
Over the years, anyone in the Yun Kingdom who possessed a good talent in swordsmanship would choose to join there.
Being able to allow the Sword Sect to use special moves twice, one can imagine how extraordinary Jian Wushuang's attainments in swordsmanship must be.
"Your swordsmanship is indeed very good. There are not many young people who can interest me, and you are one of them."
On the stage, both sides came on stage and stood opposite each other. Before the fight began, everyone could feel that there was a sharp aura belonging to a sword cultivator emanating from Jian Wushuang, which could not stop emanating from him.
It was as if his entire body had transformed into a sword, and his deep gaze could penetrate people's hearts.
"Just interested?"
Ji Chen smiled and looked at him. His expression remained calm, without a trace of nervousness.
