With a swift palm strike, he aimed it at Gu Nianxue with blinding speed.
This scene immediately stunned the entire audience; no one expected Song Qiang to actually attack Gu Nianxue!
Even Gu Nianxue's face showed a trace of panic.
Song Qiang's realm was higher than hers, and his father was also a Sect Elder, so he wasn't afraid of Gu Nianxue's background or status.
Just as the palm was about to hit Gu Nianxue's face, a hand suddenly grabbed Song Qiang's wrist, making him unable to advance an inch.
Gu Nianxue covered her mouth, murmuring, "Chu Nan…"
Song Qiang found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free. With a vicious expression, he angrily glared at Chu Nan and said, "You brat, you dare stop me? Do you know who I am?"
Chu Nan tightly held Song Qiang's wrist and said, "I don't care who you are. Are you very powerful?"
Chu Nan's tone was calm, showing no regard for Song Qiang.
Finally, with a forceful fling, Song Qiang staggered a few steps, almost falling to the ground.
The disciples of the Martial Dao at the ninth level beside him held Song Qiang steady. He stabilized himself with an ugly expression and said, "You do have some strength, but if we were on the arena, you wouldn't last three moves under me."
"You useless waste, dare you accept my challenge?"
Song Qiang thought he was careless just now; if it was a real fight, Chu Nan wouldn't be his match.
"If you want to fight, then fight. I, Chu Nan, am not afraid of you!" Chu Nan proudly said with his chest out.
Song Qiang was overjoyed; he truly feared Chu Nan wouldn't dare to face him and would flee.
So the two of them quickly went through the challenge procedures and stepped swiftly onto the number one arena.
A large number of outer sect disciples gathered, while Gu Nianxue stood by worriedly.
Although Chu Nan's strength seemed to have improved, how could he possibly be a match for Song Qiang of Martial Dao ninth level?
As the duel began, Song Qiang sneered sinisterly, "Chu Hai senior tasked me to deliver a message. He said, even with an Emperor Level Martial Vein, you are still a waste."
"You'll spend your whole life just being his stepping stone!"
Chu Nan replied, "Tell Chu Hai after this, he will repay what he owes me, double!"
"Arrogant!" Song Qiang kicked off the ground, lunging at Chu Nan like a fierce tiger.
He threw a punch with unstoppable force, worthy of a Martial Artist of Martial Dao ninth level; even Gu Nianxue would pale slightly in comparison.
Yet Chu Nan remained motionless in front of the punch, even with a disdainful smile playing at his lips.
The crowd below, preparing to challenge Chu Nan, laughed and said, "Chu Nan talks well, but when it comes to fighting, he gets scared stiff!"
Song Qiang was full of confidence, and seeing Chu Nan's performance, he thought victory was assured.
As he aimed a punch at Chu Nan's face, a sudden tragic scream tore through the air.
"Ah! How could it be…"
Everyone froze at the scene, expecting Chu Nan to be the one screaming, but it was Song Qiang who was sent flying backward.
Song Qiang, who was blown away, was bruised and terribly battered, almost falling off the stage.
Chu Nan maintained his punch-action, disdainfully saying, "Is that all?"
His actions were relaxed, not taking Song Qiang's methods seriously at all.
The Desolate Profound Transformation Sutra is a Celestial Tier supreme Cultivation Technique. Even without using Martial Skills, his defense and attack surpassed almost all Martial Dao ninth-level Martial Artists.
"How is this possible, Song Qiang was actually sent flying?"
"When Chu Nan threw the punch, I didn't even see it clearly, too fast!"
…
"Chu Nan, I'm going to kill you!" The defeated Song Qiang felt he had suffered a great humiliation and got up angrily.
His aura erupted, his whole body glowing with a scorching red light, indicating he was about to use a Martial Skill.
"Song Qiang, you're just too weak!" Chu Nan said coldly, using the Soaring Wind Sky-Stepping Technique to create several residual shadows.
Before Song Qiang could finish gathering power for his Martial Skill, Chu Nan had already closed in. With another terrifying punch, he interrupted Song Qiang's Martial Skill, knocking him to the ground.
"Just now, it was this hand you wanted to hit Gu Nianxue with, right?" Chu Nan looked down at Song Qiang, speaking mercilessly.
Furious, Song Qiang glared at Chu Nan and said, "Bastard, what do you want to do?"
Without a word, Chu Nan stepped forward, and with a crack, Song Qiang's right hand was directly snapped, his painful screams echoing in everyone's ears.
"Ah… Chu Nan!" Song Qiang cried out in pain before passing out.
Everyone gasped, thinking Chu Nan was too ruthless!
"So quickly defeated?" Chu Nan glanced at Song Qiang disdainfully, kicking him off the stage.
Then Chu Nan looked at the Martial Artists who were standing with Song Qiang earlier and said, "Who else wants to challenge me, step forward!"
There was a moment of dead silence. In just a few breaths, Chu Nan had defeated Song Qiang of the Martial Dao ninth level. This scene deeply shocked everyone.
As a result, those at the same Martial Dao ninth level who were aggressive towards Chu Nan looked at each other, hesitatingly.
After all, their strength was similar; even if stronger than Song Qiang, it wasn't by much.
Finally, a green-robed Martial Artist carrying a longsword said, "One Chu Nan scared you like this, truly pathetic."
"Song Qiang was merely careless. This time, I will not give him the opportunity."
"Didn't Chu Nan break Song Qiang's hand? Then on this stage, I will cut off his four limbs!"
With that, the green-robed Martial Artist leaped onto the stage, and under the gaze of the crowd, he tapped his Storage Ring and donned a jet-black piece of armor.
"Wu Fen actually has an upper-grade Mortal Martial armor!"
"An upper-grade Mortal Martial armor is enough to withstand more than ten attacks from Martial Dao ninth level."
"Wu Fen's Sword Dao Martial Skill is already extremely powerful, combined with this unparalleled defense, Chu Nan stands no chance."
On the stage, Wu Fen sneered, looking venomously at Chu Nan and said, "Chu Nan, I will completely cripple you in front of all the outer sect disciples!"
His challenge was not only to please Chu Hai but also for Gu Nianxue.
Since Gu Nianxue often spoke for Chu Nan, rumors had spread in the outer sect, igniting his jealousy.
So he wanted to defeat Chu Nan in front of Gu Nianxue, to prove his strength and show her who really was worth entrusting!
Chu Nan calmly said, "Since you say you want to cripple me, don't blame me for crippling you."
"Arrogant, arrogant, truly arrogant!" Wu Fen laughed, tightly gripping his longsword, "Today, I'll show you my Black Brilliance Sword Technique!"
Swish!
Wu Fen moved like a dragon out of the sea, with an incomparably sharp aura, his longsword emitting a pitch-black light sweeping towards Chu Nan.
With the cautionary tale of Song Qiang, he immediately used his most skilled Martial Skill.
Advanced Martial Skill, Black Brilliance Sword Technique!
All at once, Sword Qi filled the arena, and Wu Fen's moves were extremely vicious, almost aiming for instant kill.
The crowd below discussed, "Wu Fen's Black Brilliance Sword Technique is said to have reached the Minor Success Realm, dominating the outer sect."
"If Chu Nan only has brute strength, he will surely perish!"
Facing the deadly intent of Wu Fen, Chu Nan remained calm, skilfully dodging with the Soaring Wind Sky-Stepping Technique. Regardless of Wu Fen's vicious attacks, he couldn't even touch a single strand of hair.
After a dozen moves, Wu Fen hadn't managed to harm Chu Nan at all, making him a little ashamed and furious.
Unable to hold back, he shouted, "Bastard, if you have the nerve, stop dodging!"
Chu Nan dodged another strike and coldly said, "Wu Fen, your sword is really too slow. I truly have no desire to be hit by such trash Sword Skill."
