C270 Challenge Forward
Fong Jue, number seven on the jade plate. Like Jia Wuyou, he rarely showed his face in Zhaotian Sect. He was training in the Iron Sword City and the cities under his jurisdiction, but he was still a disciple of an elder of the Zhaotian Sect. Furthermore, he was ranked in the top ten. Therefore, everyone had high hopes for him.
However, Jing Shengjie didn't look down on the person he challenged. After all, the two previous battles were fought by those who were ranked lower than him. The outcome of this battle was still unknown and hard to predict.
When Jing Shengjie heard his name, he was quite displeased. His jade plate had a number of fifteen. There were still five people behind him, but Fong Jue had challenged him. This meant that in Fong Jue's opinion, he wasn't as good as the rest.
This kind of contempt made him very unhappy. His body was surging with combat intent, wanting to defeat Fong Jue.
When he stepped onto the fighting stage, his sharp eyes swept towards Han Feng. If Han Feng could defeat Zhao Mingxuan, then he, Jing Shengjie, would naturally be able to defeat Fong Jue as well.
Han Feng smiled faintly. Regarding Jing Shengjie's strength, he was somewhat unable to see through it. It seemed like he was proficient in the Divine Crest of Buddha, which was a perfect counter to his Devil Dao Divine Crest.
However, Jing Shengjie didn't have much Buddha Qi. This reminded Han Feng of what Devil Shi had said, "Buddha and devil have no differences. One thought can turn into Buddha, and another thought can turn into devil. In the end, it was all about strength."
This sentence was deeply engraved in Han Feng's heart. Whether it was Buddha or Devil, there was no difference. They were both a part of one's own strength, a powerful Devil King. He could defeat the Buddha Lord, and the powerful Buddha Lord could also suppress the Crazy Devil. There was no winner or loser between the two of them. Whether it was the Buddha or the Devil depended on how a martial artist used their own strength.
This was just like Jing Shengjie. Although he cultivated the Divine Crest of the Buddha, he was not a soft-hearted person. He was unable to become a supreme Buddha Lord.
Jing Shengjie stepped onto the fighting stage. His body was surrounded by Buddha light. It was as if there was a blazing golden light shining on his body. It was as if he had become an eminent monk who had transcended the world. His eyes sparkled with a merciful light.
"Fake benevolence." Fong Jue showed no mercy and said with a cold smile. However, it made Jing Shengjie smile indifferently, "Whether you are merciful or not doesn't matter. Let's fight!"
After saying that, Jing Shengjie took a step forward. In a moment, boundless Buddha light seemed to be pressing down on Fong Jue like an ancient Buddha, illuminating the sky.
Fong Jue wasn't a weakling either. When he stood on the fighting stage, he naturally exuded a noble aura. It was as if he was a natural born king. With a shake of his palm, it was as if a Combat King had condensed into his palm. Boundless combat energy was rolling and surging, and the combat light was dazzling and powerful. He was going to fight against that Buddhist light.
At the same time, Jing Shengjie had also completed the inscription of the ancient Buddha Divine Crest. He was like a god that had returned to the world. His power was boundless. Everyone could only see the ancient Buddha and the Combat King fighting crazily on the fighting stage. Fong Jue and Jing Shengjie were crazily inscribing the Divine Crest, increasing the attack of the Divine Crest.
"Fong Jue is cultivating the Divine Crest of Dao?" Han Feng's eyes narrowed. This Fong Jue also cultivates a terrifying type of Divine Crest, causing him to possess the noble aura of a king. His combat strength was extremely formidable.
"I never thought that the disciples of the two elders would also be so outstanding." Lord of Zhaotian said with a smile. Jing Shengjie and Fong Jue weren't the disciples of the elders, but their combat strength wasn't any weaker than the elder's.
The fighting stage shook. The spiritual energy around the Combat King and the ancient Buddha was surging. The chaotic Qi was rolling in the air. Fong Jue and Jing Shengjie were furious, and their attacks were getting fiercer and fiercer.
Boom!
The Combat King and the ancient Buddha exploded at the same time, causing turbulent flows of energy to shake. Jing Shengjie once again drew the divine patterns of Buddha Dao. Fong Jue's speed was slightly slower, and he was forced into a disadvantageous position.
"Looks like Fong Jue won't be able to hold on any longer." Everyone's heart skipped a beat. Judging from the current situation, it seemed like Fong Jue was still at a disadvantage.
As expected, the battle between the two lasted for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. Fong Jue still didn't have the time to draw his true Divine Crest, so he was forced to defend. In the end, he was defeated.
This caused everyone to sigh with emotion. Who said that the one who was at the bottom of the jade plate was even weaker? The three consecutive battles were all won by the challenger. This caused Zhao Mingxuan's expression to become slightly better. Fortunately, he wasn't the only one.
Next, it was the person ranked eighth on the jade plate, Zi Chen.
"Zi Chen is a descendant of the Violet Palace Martial Lord, and his cultivation base is at the Earth Energy Stage Level Three. His attainments in Divine Inscriptions are actually at the Second Order Great Divinity Stage, and he's truly a heaven warping genius. In this examination, apart from a few people, Zi Chen, you should also be ranked in the top ten." The crowd discussed amongst themselves. The person who had stepped onto the fighting stage had a scholarly appearance. He was not as good as Faang Hongxuan, but his whole body was filled with righteousness. It made people unable to help but get close to him, plus his original strength was already strong. There were many people who thought highly of him.
Han Feng also noticed Zi Chen. He was dressed normally, and there was a gentle smile on his face. It was as if he was surrounded by purple qi from the east, which condensed into a dazzling purple light. Every step he took seemed to be in tune with the natural Dao of Heaven and Earth.
The opponent Zi Chen chose was Yue Chengfeng.
Yue Chengfeng knew that Zi Chen had invited him to fight, so he jumped onto the fighting stage in a flash. His movement technique was extremely fast, and no one noticed his tracks.
"What a fast speed!" Han Feng's expression became serious. This Yue Chengfeng was just like his name suggested, his speed was even faster than the wind. If it wasn't for the fact that his Magic Eyes was able to see through everything, he wouldn't have been able to find any trace of Yue Chengfeng.
"Riding the wind and walking on the waves. Yue Chengfeng, I have long heard of your great name." Zi Chen slightly cupped his hands towards Yue Chengfeng. A violent wind suddenly blew across the latter's body. He nodded, "Brother Zi Chen, you have cultivated the East-rising Purple Qi, and comprehended the force of the heaven and earth. You have a very high innate talent. I can only look up to you. "
"You flatter me." Zi Chen waved his hand and said, "Let's fight!"
The battle between the two of them was equally terrifying. Zi Chen unleashed the Violet Qi Immortal Wind with his palm. The Divine Crest seemed to contain the ultimate truth of the Great Dao. Its attack power was extremely powerful, and it seemed to be able to sweep away everything in its path. Although Yue Chengfeng's attack wasn't powerful, its speed was extremely fast. It attacked Zi Chen from all directions. If it wasn't for the protection of Zi Chen's multicolored light... * Hong Long...... *2
In the last strike, Zi Chen engraved the Purple Cloud Divine Crest. The dazzling light spread across the entire fighting stage, making it impossible for Yue Chengfeng to dodge. In the end, he was struck by the light, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood. He had no choice but to admit defeat.
Zi Chen won.
After three challengers were defeated in a row, Zi Chen finally won. The purple light filled the air, making him look like a celestial being.
Next to Zi Chen was Hou Yue. He was skinny and looked weak, but his jade plate was ranked ninth.
The person he invited surprised everyone. It was Tu Gaang, ranked twentieth on the jade plate.
Tu Gaang cultivated the Divine Inscription of Diamond, which made him very tall. When he stood next to Hou Yue, it formed a sharp contrast. It gave people the illusion that he could crush Hou Yue with just a slight push.
"Little kid, challenging me is not a wise choice." Tu Gaang mocked Hou Yue. The gap between them was too big. It was ridiculous that Hou Yue chose to challenge him.
Furthermore, he had seen Hou Yue's battle before. It was purely because of his unique Divine Tattoo. It was as if he was walking on some kind of mysterious Divine Tattoo, allowing him to move freely on the fighting stage, as if he could ignore everything.
But in terms of combat strength, this Hou Yue was obviously inferior to him. It would be extremely difficult for him to break through his vajra defense.
When Hou Yue heard Tu Gaang's words, he didn't get angry. He just chuckled. Then, he took a step forward, and in an instant, he shuttled back and forth on the fighting stage. Tu Gaang carved out numerous diamond swords. He slashed in all directions, but he couldn't find any trace of his opponent.
Bang!
Hou Yue suddenly appeared behind Tu Gaang and threw a punch at him. However, when the punch landed on Tu Gaang's body, it felt like it had hit steel, causing Hou Yue to cry out in pain.
Just like that, the two of them exchanged blows. The battle continued for a few rounds, but there was still no winner or loser. The attacks between the two seemed to be ineffective. It was as if the two of them were restraining each other.
"Forget it, let's tie." Fong Loong saw that neither of them had any means to defeat the other. He waved his hand, indicating that the two of them did not need to fight anymore. A draw was enough.
From the beginning of the exam until now, a draw had finally appeared.
Yuen Lieh, the person with the tenth jade plate, had lost to Ying Tiankuang in the second match. Hence, when it was his turn to participate in the challenge, he directly skipped it. Similarly, Tian Mong was also defeated by Sikou Bailian in the third match. Hence, the right to choose fell into Wu Meng's hands.
Previously, Wu Meng was the one who was challenged, but she won. Hence, she also had the right to challenge once. Furthermore, the one who was challenged could not be refused.
The rules seemed unfair to those who had lost before, but the exam itself had to be ranked. Therefore, if they lost again, they would have nothing to say.
Wu Meng thought for a moment and looked at Faang Hongxuan as if she was asking for his opinion. The latter's lips moved as if he had said a name. Wu Meng then made up her mind and said, "Luo Jing, come out."
Luo Jing was not surprised when he heard that. After all, he and Wai Ziran were the only ones who had not fought yet. He smiled and stepped onto the fighting stage.
"This Luo Jing is also an elegant young master. I'm afraid he won't be willing to do anything to Wu Meng." Han Feng thought to himself.
"Miss Wu Meng, welcome," Luo Jing said with a smile.
"Sorry to be rude." Wu Meng stretched out her finger in an instant. The pattern of the Divine Crest was condensed and turned into a fierce attack, rushing towards Luo Jing.
Luo Jing didn't use his full strength, he only inscribed some simple Divine Inscriptions. The Divine Inscription's light flickered, but it didn't contain any actual killing intent. This caused many people to sigh with emotion. Luo Jing was after all a person who had tender feelings for the fairer sex.
In the end, Luo Jing revealed a slight flaw and lost. He gave the victory to Wu Meng.
"Faang Hongxuan seems to be refined and frivolous, but in reality, his thoughts are meticulous. He predicted that Luo Jing wouldn't be ruthless to Wu Meng. Hence, he let Wu Meng challenge him and added another victory to Wu Meng. Luo Jing did not use his full strength, and his trump card did not appear. I wonder how strong he is." Han Feng thought in his heart. Then, he also walked up to the fighting stage. This time, it was his turn to initiate the challenge.
"My rank is 13th. Then, let's fight our way through the top ten rankings." Han Feng thought for a while. He jumped over Wu Meng and Tian Mong and pointed at a young man in the crowd.
"I challenge the tenth place, Yuen Lieh."
