"It's Elder Chen!"

The surrounding guards and youngsters all lit up with excitement.

"Although Elder Chen Jianchang is the weakest among the three Great Elders, being the only Profound Level Peak Martial Artist, he has defeated an Earth Level Martial Artist before!"

"Indeed, Elder Chen can be regarded as an Earth Level Martial Artist. That kid is definitely done for!"

"Having an elder equivalent to an Earth Level Martial Artist like Elder Chen taking action against him, that kid should feel honored!"

All these people were optimistic about Elder Chen, convinced that once he made a move, Jiang Chen would be doomed!

"Hmph! Kid, I'll let you strike first so you can't accuse me of bullying a fledgling," the arriving Chen Jianchang said arrogantly, looking at Jiang Chen with utter disdain.

Jiang Chen sneered, not bothering with Chen Jianchang's chatter. With his left hand casually holding the sheathed Blood Saber and his right hand clenched into a fist, he threw a punch.

"Hmph! Not using a weapon? How arrogant!" When they saw Jiang Chen, Chen Jianchang and his group had noticed the Blood Saber in his hand. Judging by the scabbard's design, it should be an ancient saber, and people with such a weapon usually had a family sword technique.

Chen Jianchang had allowed Jiang Chen to strike first not only to posture but also to assess Jiang Chen's swordsmanship. Unexpectedly, Jiang Chen didn't use his weapon, which made Chen Jianchang feel belittled and his anger flared up!

"You dare boast so carelessly, kid? Then let me show you what a real fist is!" Chen Jianchang roared, countering Jiang Chen's punch with his own.

The corners of Jiang Chen's mouth curled into a cold smirk as his blood energy suddenly circulated within him. A faint trace of blood light flashed over his fist, colliding head-on with Chen Jianchang's.

"He dares to trade punches with Elder Chen?"

"He's really courting death!"

"I'm waiting to hear the sound of his arm breaking!"

A few young men jeered and discussed.

Bang!

Crack!

"Agh!"

A dull thud as the two fists collided, followed by the crisp sound of breaking bones and a cry of agony.

"Haha, I told you..." a young man started to say with a laugh, but as he clearly saw the situation between the two fighters, he froze on the spot, swallowing his words.

At that moment, Jiang Chen looked indifferent as he watched something in the distance.

Chen Jianchang had been sent flying by Jiang Chen's punch, crashing to the ground hard. He covered his right arm with his left hand, writhing in pain on the ground, unable to stand up for the time being!

"Elder Chen!"

"Elder Chen!"

A series of shock exclamations rang out as two Martial Alliance guards stepped forward to help Chen Jianchang up.

"That kid actually sent Elder Chen flying with one punch!"

"How could this be, how can he be so strong!"

"Is he also a Profound Level Peak Martial Artist? Or even... an Earth Level one?"

Whispers arose within the Martial Alliance, as everyone looked at Jiang Chen with astonishment, never expecting him to be so formidable!

"Kid, you do have some skills! But this is not a place for someone as presumptuous as you to run wild!" a loud voice announced, and another elder who had been silent stepped forward.

Li Zhengcheng, a Martial Alliance Elder of the Dingjing branch, the number three man of this branch, an Earth Level Martial Artist!

"Elder Li is taking action!"

"Elder Li is a genuine Earth Grade powerhouse. That kid is at most at the Profound Peak, definitely not an Earth Level Martial Artist. He's too young for that!"

"Exactly, Elder Li has once held off three Earth Level Martial Artists single-handedly without losing, earning the title Li Bubai (Undefeated Li)!"

A few youngsters started to look forward again; the guards' eyes shone with anticipation.

"You're strong, kid, but you can't resist the Martial Alliance alone. Kneel down, apologize, and seeing as you have some talent, I might plead for you, allowing you to enter the Dingjing branch," Li Zhengcheng said in a deep voice.

Jiang Chen sneered dismissively, "If the Martial Alliance is filled with trash like you, I'm better off not joining!"

"You insolent brat!" Li Zhengcheng's face darkened, and he let out a low growl before leaping up with a flying kick aimed at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen smiled coldly, his body spinning as he delivered a straight kick, swiftly aiming for Li Zhengcheng's chest.

Li Zhengcheng's face turned pale, Jiang Chen's kick had turned into a blur, its trajectory impossible to capture. Shock filled Li Zhengcheng's heart as he tried to twist his body in an effort to dodge.

But airborne as he was, he simply could not dodge. Moreover, he couldn't dodge Jiang Chen's kick at all.

In an instant!

Li Zhengcheng felt a sharp pain in his chest, followed by a 'bang' as he was sent flying backward.

Thud!

Li Zhengcheng slammed heavily onto the ground, clutching his chest, feeling a sweetness in his throat.

"Puh—"

Unable to hold it back, Li Zhengcheng spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"Elder Li!"

"Elder Li!"

The crowd's expressions changed, and they couldn't help but cry out in shock.

Several guards rushed to help Li Zhengcheng up.

"How is this possible?!"

"Even Elder Li has been defeated!"

"One punch to defeat Elder Chen, one kick to send Elder Li flying... is this Jiang Chen really that strong?"

"Could it be that he… he is an Earth Grade Peak Martial Artist?!"

Everyone was stunned, their shock evident as they stared at Jiang Chen, their estimation of his martial prowess growing ever higher.

At the entrance of the Inner Court, the plump Li Fenglin looked at Jiang Chen with a face full of admiration, his eyes brimming with respect.

Storming in alone, sending Elders flying!

Now that's what you call badass!

Liu Jiangbo and Wang Youhua, who had not yet made a move, exchanged glances, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.

"This kid is actually this strong?" Wang Youhua whispered.

Liu Jiangbo nodded and said solemnly, "I didn't expect this Jiang Chen to be so difficult to handle. We can't afford to lose again. If even we are defeated, then our Martial Alliance in Dingjing will lose all face!"

Although both were Earth Level Martial Artists, and fairly good ones within that level, they were well aware that they couldn't deal with Li Zhengcheng as effortlessly as Jiang Chen did with that punch and kick.

So they both understood that they were not as good as Jiang Chen!

After exchanging a nod, they both shouted simultaneously, "Jiang Chen, this is no place for you to run wild."

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The two charged at Jiang Chen at the same time.

For seniors to attack a junior together was embarrassing, and if the news spread, it would bring shame. So without any signal, they rushed out in tacit understanding. Though to others it seemed like a two-on-one, they could argue it was a coincidence, and once they had made their move, they wouldn't back down. They both wanted to defeat Jiang Chen on their own, attempting to preserve their dignity until the end.

"Vice President Liu and Elder Wang can't stand it any longer!"

"They've both made their move!"

"Haha, Jiang Chen is done for, the two seniors can't stand by and must teach him a lesson!"

"Both seniors are great experts, and if they team up, even our President may not be able to withstand them, right?"

The members of the Martial Alliance were all invigorated, watching Liu Jiangbo and the other with faces full of joy - for they had not yet witnessed the scene of Liu Jiangbo and his companion attacking together.
