Becoming the new Hall Master of the War King Hall not only fulfills Ouyang Zhong's last wish, but it also brings tremendous benefits to Ye Chen.

As long as he becomes the new Hall Master, he will gain an equal status to Duanmu Ying within the Celestial Flame Academy, and even Duanmu Ying will not dare to easily threaten him anymore.

More importantly, the Hall Master of the War King Hall can practice any martial arts and body refining techniques of the War King Hall, including the Profound Level Lower Grade martial arts.

And each Profound Level Lower Grade martial art contains True Intent, which is the key to becoming an Immortal.

If there are no Profound Level Lower Grade martial arts to practice, it is difficult to become an Immortal in this lifetime, no matter how high your talent is.

"Damn it, how did this happen? This waste actually became the Chief Disciple of our War King Hall, and doesn't that mean he can take the test for the Hall Master next?" At this moment, Ouyang Yi's face turned extremely unsightly, as if he had eaten a huge pile of dead flies.

Previously, he didn't take Ye Chen seriously at all, thinking his competition with Ning Hongye and Chen Bai for the Chief Disciple position was purely self-humiliating.

But that was before Ye Chen unleashed such terrifying battle prowess and directly crippled Ning Hongye and Chen Bai.

This not only made Ouyang Yi find it unbelievable but also stirred a strong sense of unease in his heart.

If Ye Chen really becomes the new Hall Master of the War King Hall, then he, the Grand Elder, might be directly ousted by Ye Chen from the War King Hall.

After all, when Ye Chen needed a million Ordinary Spirit Stones, Ouyang Yi was unwilling to give him even a single stone.

"No, I definitely can't let this waste become the new Hall Master of the War King Hall, but how can I stop him?" Ouyang Yi's eyes were filled with intense anxiety, yet for the moment, he couldn't think of any way to stop Ye Chen.

According to the rules of the War King Hall, once you become the Chief Disciple, you're eligible to take the Hall Master test.

Not even the newly appointed Grand Elder, like himself, has the authority to change this rule.

"Teacher Ouyang, I'll be taking the War King Hall's Hall Master test tomorrow, and I will succeed," Ye Chen softly said to Ouyang Xue as he walked to her side.

"Ye Chen, I'm sorry for not trusting you before," Ouyang Xue's eyes were filled with deep guilt.

Just like everyone else earlier, she didn't believe Ye Chen was capable of securing the Chief Disciple position.

To Ye Chen, this was undoubtedly a huge hurt.

"It's okay, I'm already used to it," Ye Chen grinned, totally unbothered.

Due to his inability to awaken his bloodline, since joining the Celestial Flame Academy, he has always been questioned by others.

Therefore, he stopped caring about what others thought of him long ago.

"Ye Chen, no matter what you do in the future, I will choose to believe in you," Ouyang Xue gazed intently at Ye Chen, a soft light flickering deep in her eyes.

Ye Chen is now, practically, her only reliance in this world.

If she doesn't even believe in Ye Chen, then who else can she trust?

"Palace Master, are we really going to let this little beast participate in the Hall Master test? Although he is a waste who can't awaken his bloodline, his body refining talent is indeed strong. Passing the Hall Master test is almost a certainty. If he becomes the Hall Master of the War King Hall, the students we dispatched will definitely be driven out by him." In the grand hall, Duanmu Ying's face was extremely gloomy, her eyes full of intense unwillingness.

She has long been scheming to divide the cultivation resources of the War King Hall, and just as she was about to succeed, Ye Chen, the monstrous genius in body refining talent, appeared unexpectedly.

If Ye Chen truly becomes the new Hall Master of the War King Hall, her years of planning will undoubtedly become nothing in an instant.

How could she be willing to accept this?

"Our three factions do not have many seed students with body refining talent, and among those, the three strongest have already been defeated by Ye Chen, so there's really no way to stop him," said the Celestial Flame Peak Master, frowning tightly, his gaze somewhat coldly.

He too wishes to prevent Ye Chen from becoming the new Hall Master of the War King Hall.

However, the most talented seed student in body refining from the Celestial Flame Peak, Ning Hongye, has already fallen to Ye Chen's hands.

Even if he sends other students with body refining talent to challenge Ye Chen, they would likely only meet defeat.

As for those seed students without body refining talent, while several can easily crush Ye Chen,

none of them can pass the Hall Master test, even if they become the Chief Disciple of the War King Hall.

"Palace Master, I have a way to stop this little beast. All we need is to send a much stronger seed student, take away his Chief Disciple position, and he won't be able to take the Hall Master test. Whether that person has body refining talent is irrelevant," Duanmu Ying said with a cold smile, her lips oozing with sinister intent.

Among the seed students of their three factions, there are plenty who can crush Ye Chen.

Especially the three strongest prodigies, each of whom has already stepped into the Celestial Spirit Realm.

In front of them, Ye Chen is practically an ant.

If they are willing to act, crushing Ye Chen would require no effort at all.

However, why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken?

There's no need for those three prodigies to make a move; there are plenty among the other seed students who can easily crush Ye Chen.

"This is indeed a good idea. However, I have already announced in front of so many people that Ye Chen has become the Chief Disciple of the War King Hall. Even if he doesn't accept challenges from others, he still has the right to participate in the Hall Master's trial. Do you think he would be foolish enough to accept challenges from others?" The Celestial Flame Peak Master's eyes flashed with a trace of regret.

Had he known this earlier, he wouldn't have publicly announced Ye Chen as the Chief Disciple of the War King Hall just now.

In that case, others could have continued to challenge him.

Unfortunately, it's too late for regret now.

As the Palace Master of the Celestial Flame Academy, he couldn't casually go back on his word.

"Humph! How would you know without trying? As far as I know, that little brat has a blood feud with Ye Lin'Er. I can let Ye Lin'Er try to challenge him. If he really agrees, he's as good as dead." Duanmu Ying sneered.

"Ye Lin'Er? She has awakened an Earth Level Bloodline, and her cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. Defeating Ye Chen is indeed a matter of ease." The Celestial Flame Peak Master's eyes couldn't help but brighten, and he nodded.

In his view, Ye Lin'Er, as the one and only genius who has awakened an Earth Level Bloodline in the history of the Celestial Flame Dynasty, is not someone Ye Chen can compare to.

As long as the Earth Level Bloodline emerges, no matter how strong Ye Chen's body is, he is bound to be crushed.

"Then I will go and call Ye Lin'Er over now." Duanmu Ying said excitedly.

At this time, high above a platform hundreds of meters away from the White Jade Battle Platform, stood four figures.

They had been silently watching the match between Ye Chen and Ning Hongye.

Because they were too low-key, even the students of Celestial Flame Academy hadn't noticed their presence until now.

Otherwise, these four people would definitely cause an incomparable sensation.

For among them, three were the strongest three prodigies of the Celestial Flame Academy.

Their combat power among the twenty-four seed students was absolutely terrifying.

As for the other person, it was Ye Lin'Er.

Ever since she possessed the Earth Level Bloodline, her prominence at Celestial Flame Academy even surpassed the three prodigies and became a focal point of all eyes.

Even the three prodigies treated her with utmost courtesy.

"I never imagined that the position of Chief Disciple of the War King Hall would actually fall into the hands of this waste, Ye Chen. Zi Xuan and the others are truly useless." Among the four, a graceful woman in yellow said coldly.

Her name was Wang Lian, the foremost prodigy of Profound Sword Peak, and the adopted daughter of Duanmu Ying.

Because of this, she also hated Ye Chen to the extreme.

If it weren't for her mediocre Body Refining Talent, she would have crushed Ye Chen herself and avenged Duanmu Jie.

"This Ye Chen, apart from having slightly higher Martial Arts Talent, is nothing remarkable. Junior Brother Chen Bai is still too weak, or he wouldn't have lost to such a waste." Another man shook his head, his expression full of disdain.

His name was Bai Luo, the foremost prodigy of the Soul Palace.

"Humph! Look at that smug look on his face, it's truly ridiculous. He really thinks he's something special! Compared to Senior Brother Chu Feng back in the day, he's not worth mentioning in the slightest." Wang Lian couldn't help but sneer, her gaze unintentionally falling on the tall, golden-robed man beside her, her eyes full of deep admiration.

This golden-robed man was exceedingly tall and elegant, remarkably handsome.

He was none other than the first prodigy of Celestial Flame Peak, Chu Feng, and the only person in the entire Celestial Flame Dynasty to ascend the Hidden Dragon List.

Even someone as strong as Wang Lian admired Chu Feng.

Because when Chu Feng was sixteen years old, his cultivation had already reached the Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm, and his cultivation speed was simply astonishing.

As for that waste Ye Chen! He has only just stepped into the Gang Qi Realm.

The gap between him and Chu Feng is as vast as that between a firefly and the bright moon, completely different worlds.

"Humph! What qualifies this waste to compare with Senior Brother Chu Feng? Senior Brother Chu Feng is an Immortal Seed of Celestial Flame Academy. Soon, an envoy from Azure Sky Immortal Sect will come to bring him away. To compare Ye Chen, such a waste, to Senior Brother Chu Feng is simply an insult to Senior Brother Chu Feng." Bai Luo couldn't help but sneer, his mouth full of thick mockery.

Although his strength ranked among the top three in Celestial Flame Academy, he still wasn't qualified to become an Immortal Seed of Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

Yet Chu Feng had already succeeded.

Thus, he held deep respect for Chu Feng and certainly didn't want Ye Chen, that waste, to tarnish Chu Feng's name.
