Above the White Jade Battle Platform, Ye Chen's figure had somehow appeared above Luo Yuan's head, with dazzling golden Sword Aura bursting from his fingertips.

At this moment, terrifying cold gleams flickered in his eyes, making one shiver involuntarily.

How could he not see that Luo Yuan wanted to take the opportunity to kill him just now?

If he hadn't cultivated the Human Emperor Body, dramatically enhancing his fleshly body's speed from before, even with the Perfection Realm of "Spiritual Ape Step," he couldn't have dodged Luo Yuan's attack.

Since the opponent wanted him dead, Ye Chen naturally showed no mercy.

Whoosh.

The next moment, Ye Chen resolutely pushed the Perfection Realm of the "Profound Gold Sword Technique" to the extreme, causing the violent True Qi around his body to instantly coalesce into a two-zhang long golden Sword Aura that fiercely slashed down at Luo Yuan.

"Not good." Luo Yuan's entire body couldn't help but stand on end, eyes full of intense fear and despair.

His Double-headed Red Lion Bloodline was indeed powerful, but at this moment, he simply couldn't evade Ye Chen's attack in time.

With a loud "puchi,"

In a split second, that two-zhang long golden Sword Aura effortlessly sliced through the neck of the Double-headed Red Lion, instantly appearing in front of Luo Yuan.

Ah!

Immediately, a chilling scream echoed across the platform, sending shivers down one's spine.

Luo Yuan's burly body was cleaved in half by the golden Sword Aura, blood splattering everywhere, staining the white jade on the ground red, an immensely shocking sight.

Before he died, his eyes were wide open, filled with deep regret and resentment.

If he had known Ye Chen's speed was so swift, he would never have underestimated him.

Now, he hadn't even had time to use his strongest Bloodline Divine Techniques before dying at Ye Chen's hands, a truly frustrating demise.

"You damn brat, how dare you do this!" On the high platform, Luo Tong's smile froze, his eyes filled with disbelief as he roared at Ye Chen like a crazed beast.

He had initially thought that this time, Luo Yuan would definitely seize the opportunity to kill Ye Chen, getting rid of a thorn in his side.

But unexpectedly, it was Luo Yuan who ended up dead.

And Luo Yuan, as a rare genius in the Luo Family, had awakened the Double-headed Red Lion Bloodline.

His death was an unimaginable loss for the Luo Family.

At that moment, Luo Tong was overwhelmed with fury, itching to rush onto the battle platform and kill Ye Chen on the spot.

However, rational thoughts stopped him from doing so.

Otherwise, the strong of the Celestial Flame Academy could execute him at any moment.

After all, the recruitment assessment of the Celestial Flame Academy was absolutely not allowed to be interfered with by others.

"Sorry, I hit a bit too hard and accidentally killed him." Facing Luo Tong's roar, Ye Chen exhibited an innocent expression, as if to deliberately provoke Luo Tong.

This old guy had ambushed his foster father before, severely damaging his foster father's Dantian, which could cause him to lose his cultivation at any time.

Thus, Ye Chen wished to anger this old guy to death.

Now, he was just collecting a bit of interest; when his strength grew strong enough, he would settle the account properly.

"You damn thing, I shall tear you apart piece by piece, and Ye Ming and Xiao Hui will also accompany you to the grave." Luo Tong's five features twisted together, his lungs nearly exploded with rage, roaring furiously in his heart.

In all his life, he had never been so infuriated by someone.

If he didn't kill Ye Chen, he couldn't vent the hatred in his heart.

"Dead, Luo Yuan was killed by Ye Chen."

"Oh my God! Am I dreaming? Luo Yuan, who awakened a Yellow Level Three Bloodline, wasn't even a match for Ye Chen." At that moment, the younger generation of the three great families couldn't help but gasp, feeling chills down their spines.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would hardly believe it.

One must know that Luo Yuan had awakened the Double-headed Red Lion Bloodline and his Sea of Qi was no less than Ye Chen's.

But now, he was killed by Ye Chen, who hadn't even awakened any bloodline.

This was simply like a fantasy.

"Hmph! This Luo Yuan is truly a waste, clearly possessing the strength to crush Ye Chen, yet dying due to underestimating him." Duanmu Jie said with a gloomy face, a tone of annoyance.

In his view, Luo Yuan, having awakened the Double-headed Red Lion Bloodline, should have been able to crush Ye Chen in combat.

If he had used his Bloodline Divine Techniques from the start, Ye Chen would already be a dead man.

But now, because of his complacency, he was killed by Ye Chen, truly deserving his fate.

"Brother Duanmu, that waste only had luck on his side. Even if he somehow won, so what? Xiao Lan's strength is far greater than Luo Yuan's, and she will easily crush that waste." Ye Lin'Er said with an indifferent expression, showing little emotional ripple.

Like Duanmu Jie, she believed that Ye Chen's ability to kill Luo Yuan was purely because Luo Yuan was overconfident.

If they were truly comparing strength, a significant gap remained between Ye Chen and Luo Yuan.

However, in the final match to come, Xiao Lan wouldn't be as foolish as Luo Yuan.

She would surely defeat Ye Chen with all her might.

"Ye Chen, I have to admit, your luck is quite remarkable to kill Luo Yuan, but I won't be as foolish as him to give you a chance to strike! The first place in this assessment—if I, Xiao Lan, want it, no one can compete." At this moment, Xiao Lan's gaze fixed on Ye Chen, her words exceedingly firm and dominating.

It was as if the first place in this assessment was already hers.

Clearly, she didn't regard Ye Chen as anything significant.

However, it was understandable why she would have such an idea.

After all, in terms of both bloodline and Sea of Qi capacity, she was much stronger than Luo Yuan.

And the reason Luo Yuan was killed by Ye Chen was entirely due to his complacency.

As long as she gave her all against Ye Chen from the onset, he wouldn't stand a chance against her.

"Xiao Lan, let's wait and see. I hope you can still speak such words at that time." In the face of Xiao Lan's provocation, Ye Chen calmly replied.

Not long after, Luo Yuan's body was carried away by the Luo Family's strongmen, and even the bloodstains on the battle platform were cleaned up entirely.

"Xiao Lan, Ye Teng, come onto the platform to compete." Immediately afterward, Liu Xin's servant, the elderly white-haired man, announced to everyone.

"Finally, it's Xiao Lan's turn."

"With her strength, defeating Ye Teng will be an effortless matter." The surrounding cultivators couldn't help but discuss eagerly.

Especially the younger generation of the Xiao Family, who became incredibly excited.

In contrast, the younger generation of the Ye Family all appeared dejected.

Because they all knew that the first place in this recruitment assessment had nothing to do with the Ye Family.

Ye Teng's strength was indeed formidable, but compared to the genius Xiao Lan, he wasn't on the same level at all.

"Sister Xiao Lan, I know I'm not your match, but I still want to spar with you." On the White Jade Battle Platform, a handsome young man spoke with great solemnity, eyes filled with respect.

This young man was none other than Ye Teng.

"I will only make one move. If you can take it, I lose." Xiao Lan said calmly, her demeanor extremely arrogant.

"Alright, you said it yourself." Ye Teng's expression turned furious instantly; with a thought, he pushed his bloodline to the limit, charging at Xiao Lan.

This Xiao Lan looked down on people too much.

He, Ye Teng, was at least a leader among the younger generation in the Ye Family, yet to her, he wasn't even worth one move.

To him, this was a tremendous humiliation.

Therefore, he employed his full strength right from the start, wanting to see just how strong Xiao Lan really was.
