The arena was deathly silent!

Below the stage, whether it was those big shots from various places or the crowd of spectators, everyone just stared dumbly at Jiang Chen on the stage, not a single person able to speak.

From the moment Jiang Chen appeared, not one person had faith in him, yet at this moment, Jiang Chen had bisected Gongben Liangtian with a single strike. It had only been a few minutes, but those few minutes utterly shocked everyone present.

Whether it was the trail of blood from Jiang Chen's strike or Gongben Liangtian's bisected corpse, the vivid crimson red invoked a boundless terror from the depths of everyone's hearts.

Was Jiang Chen really human?

Just a few minutes ago, Gongben Liangtian had been swaggering on the stage, invincible, but as soon as Jiang Chen stepped up, he was effortlessly slain with a single slash, as if swatting a mere ant.

Was there anything more shocking than this?

No!

Those closest, like Wang Bowen and others, stared blankly at Jiang Chen, their faces filled with horror, their eyes brimming with disbelief!

Especially Li Zhengcheng and Liu Jiangbo; when they thought about the slash Jiang Chen had made that day and then saw the halved corpse of Gongben Liangtian on the stage, they couldn't help but gulp down saliva uncontrollably.

If that slash had been on us, wouldn't it have been just as terrifying!

Even the Wan Family members, who had just been the loudest in their clamor, had lost their voices entirely, staring in horror at Gongben Liangtian's body on the stage, trembling all over.

The Wan Family Head, Wan Tianlin, sat pale-faced on his chair, looking at Jiang Chen in despair.

My God, even Mr. Gongben has been cleaved in half by him, who else could avenge my son?

Meanwhile, Lin Bingrui was laughing out loud.

Mr. Jiang truly didn't disappoint him!

This slash not only killed Gongben Liangtian but had also split open the entire structure of Dingjing!

Mr. Jiang, incredible!

HAHAHAHA...

Not far away, Gong Yue and the others were just as dumbfounded, their mouths agape, staring incredulously at Jiang Chen on the stage and at the red blood sprawled everywhere.

In their ears lingered a phrase,

"To deal with him, a single slash is all it takes!"

That phrase had become a loop, continuously echoing in their minds.

Indeed, not a bit wrong!

Jiang Chen truly did defeat Gongben Liangtian with a single slash!

"He, he, he really did kill Gongben Liangtian with one slash. I, I was wrong..."

Fan Wuzheng stammered in fear, remembering he had once thought of teaching Jiang Chen a lesson, suddenly feeling terrified, thinking if he really had, perhaps he would have become just another soul under the blade.

Gong Yue's face was filled with disbelief, looking at the scene on the stage, continuously shaking her head softly and muttering to herself, "Impossible! Impossible! How could he be so powerful? This can't be..."

Even at this moment, Gong Yue refused to believe in Jiang Chen's prowess. But deep down, she vaguely understood, she had underestimated Jiang Chen time and time again, only to find out he was so formidable, and she herself was nothing more than a frog at the bottom of a well.

Li Bowen's face, however, was filled with shock, his complexion deathly pale, his heart full of panic. After all, he had offended Jiang Chen on numerous occasions!

Thinking this, Li Bowen suddenly shivered and, not daring to stay any longer, he quickly bent over to get up and quietly slipped away.

And Xiao Anjun and the others had noticed none of it, especially Xiao Anjun, who was completely stunned. He remembered the conversation he had with Jiang Chen that night.

He had looked down on Jiang Chen, convinced that Jiang Chen was but a minor star without the potential for greatness.

But Jiang Chen had said a phrase to him:

"One day, I will surely look down on the whole sky!"

How laughable that he thought this was Jiang Chen's arrogance and conceit. But it wasn't until now that he realized the truly arrogant and conceited one was himself!

Whereas Jiang Chen was genuinely remarkable!

Having slain Gongben Liangtian with a single stroke, with such strength and accomplishment, he was bound to soar high into the sky!

National fame was just around the corner!

I was wrong!

I was so utterly wrong!

Xiao Anjun suddenly turned his head to look at Xiao Yunna.

Currently, Xiao Yunna was completely enchanted; she didn't look towards the arena like the others, but instead at where Jiang Chen was, her eyes filled only with him, brimming with adoration.

Xiao Anjun glanced at Xiao Yunna, then at Jiang Chen, and suddenly heaved a sigh. If Jiang Chen wasn't married, he would have swallowed his pride to take the initiative to befriend him, even at the cost of his face… But…

Eh, wait a minute, even the married can divorce!

His eyes twirling, Xiao Anjun cast a deep look at Jiang Chen, turned his head towards Xiao Yunna, and a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

Yes, I've set my mind on Jiang Chen as my son-in-law!

…

Jiang Chen, up on the stage, however, felt nothing much.

To all the people below, Gongben Liangtian was an unstoppable force to be reckoned with.

But in Jiang Chen's eyes, he was barely worth a single strike.

Such enemies were as easy to kill as slaughtering chickens.

After waiting for a while and seeing that truly no one dared to respond, Jiang Chen smiled faintly, turned, and stepped down from the stage.

Reaching Lin Bingrui's side, Jiang Chen said softly, "President Lin, there's nothing left for me here, right?"

"Mr. Jiang, no, nothing left… You are too incredible!" Lin Bingrui was so excited that he was almost incoherent.

Jiang Chen cast an amused glance at Lin Bingrui: "Just tell me if there's anything else you need from me. If not, I'll head back to the hotel to wait. I don't want to be pestered to death once these people come back to their senses!"

"Oh, yes, Mr. Jiang, please return to the hotel and rest. I'll take care of the rest!" Lin Bingrui hastily replied.

Jiang Chen nodded, took advantage of the stunned silence of the crowd in the stadium, and left swiftly. Arriving at Gong Yue and the others, he nodded slightly towards them and quickly departed the stadium.

"Where's Mr. Jiang?"

Suddenly, a chorus of shouts rose, and everyone in the stadium turned to look at Lin Bingrui; but upon realizing that the slender figure was no longer by his side, their eyes revealed shades of disappointment.

Some quick-witted individuals stepped forward to Lin Bingrui and politely inquired with obvious intent: "President Lin, Mr. Jiang came with you, right?"

After the first person's reminder, everyone quickly caught on and converged around Lin Bingrui, exchanging pleasantries, and then craftily asking about Jiang Chen.

Lin Bingrui, looking at the crowd of peers and even higher-ups who were flattering him, felt joy bloom in his heart. He knew, however, that all this was brought about by Jiang Chen, all out of respect for Mr. Jiang. Consequently, his gratitude towards Jiang Chen was beyond words.

But he knew Jiang Chen's temperament well; if Jiang Chen wanted to interact with these people, he wouldn't have left early. As for him, such scenes were all too familiar, and he faced them without a hint of pressure.

This battle made the name Mr. Jiang resound throughout the whole Jingji region thanks to a Martial Alliance tournament.

Although what everyone extolled was still "Mr. Jiang" and not Jiang Chen.

But!

The prowess of a single stroke, thoroughly spread far and wide.
