Chapter 1056: 1056
The inner sect disciples were gathered in the inner sect plaza . The six factions’ two hundred-some thousand disciples were all present .
Only the combat disciples were present . The support disciples and inheritance disciples were not amongst them .
After two months apart, the disciples all sensed immense changes in their fellows . They had all greatly improved during these two months in the Xuantian Dao Sect . Ignoring everything else, just the fact that they could enter the middle grade training grounds free of charge allowed them to profit immensely .
In comparison, the Dragonblood Legion’s side was lacking . Although the majority of people had advanced a level, the majority of them were stuck in the mid stage of Sea Expansion .
In terms of cultivation base, that was the bottom level amongst the six factions . Furthermore, they hadn’t gone to the training grounds, as they hadn’t had the time .
They had always been undergoing hellish training on Crouching Dragon Mountain . Although their auras weren’t very powerful, there was an icy, murderous aura present now that made them like sharp blades .
When Long Chen brought the Dragonblood Legion over, everyone looked at him . Hua Shiyu had a slightly complicated expression in her eyes . She had disliked all men in her life, but she didn’t find him so loathsome .
Beside her was Zhao Ziyan . It looked like she was enveloped in water, as if she was merged with the world .
She had clearly reached the realm of merging with heaven and earth . Hua Shiyu had spent an exorbitant sum to allow Zhao Ziyan to go through a baptism . Zhao Ziyan was no longer the old Zhao Ziyan . She now had the qualifications to be called an expert .
It wasn’t just Zhao Ziyan . Han Yunshan, Wei Changhai, and Yan Mochen had gone through the same kind of baptism and reached the realm of merging with heaven and earth . Only once they reached that realm did they truly understand just how weak they had been before .
Seeing Long Chen arrive, the three of them glared at him . Back then, Long Chen had caused them to lose a great deal of face .
“A big idiot leading a pack of small idiots . I’m looking forward to seeing how many of them die in the competition,” sneered Han Yunshan .
“Hopefully, they don’t whine and wail when the time comes . As fellow inner sect disciples, it’d be an insult to us . ” Yan Mochen followed along .
“They caused their own destruction . When they exchanged their points for spirit stones, they wasted the best opportunity to raise their power . The leader is an idiot, implicating all the others . Can such a person even be called a commander?” Wei Changhai spat on the ground contemptuously .
The Dragonblood warriors were infuriated . They could tolerate it if others wanted to insult them, but as soon as someone insulted Long Chen, their killing intent soared .
Even the icy Wang Zhen frowned slightly upon hearing this . These words were going too far .
“Kill him!”
The Dragonmark warriors weren’t able to stay as cool-headed as the Dragonblood warriors . Their fury instantly erupted and they had to be stopped by Guo Ran .
Long Chen had already slowly walked forward to Wei Changhai . Seeing Long Chen approach him, Wei Changhai could feel his heart pounding, and he involuntarily retreated a few steps .
But then he quickly realized he was no longer his old self . He was also a heavenly genius who had merged with heaven and earth . Why did he have to be afraid of him?
Then thinking of how he had been involuntarily retreating in front of everyone, he felt embarrassed . Therefore, he advanced forward with a disdainful expression .
Fan Song, Hu Guishan, and Que Xinyan simply watched, waiting to see Long Chen being humiliated . This was their mission, as well as something they were happy to do .
“What? Did you want to say something? Are you not precisely garbage?” sneered Wei Changhai .
But what startled people was that Long Chen had no intention of opening his mouth . He merely raised a single hand .
Pow!
In front of everyone’s flabbergasted eyes, Long Chen’s palm struck Wei Changhai’s face with great power . As for Wei Changhai, he seemed like an idiot . He didn’t even try to dodge or resist, and simply allowed Long Chen’s slap to send him flying .
It wasn’t that Wei Changhai hadn’t wanted to dodge . The truth was that as soon as he had wanted to dodge, he suddenly realized this slap sealed off all possible paths of retreat .
Long Chen’s slap had reached such a realm that it caused a misperception . It looked slow, but it actually was as quick as lightning . By the time he reacted, he had been cleanly struck .
Just as Wei Changhai had been mocking Long Chen, he was sent flying, his teeth sparkling through the air as they tumbled to the ground .
“Do you see? Learn from our boss . If you can move your fists, don’t move your mouths . You’re men who can stand while pissing, not- cough, cough . ” Guo ran had just been in the midst of lecturing the Dragonmark warriors when he suddenly felt an icy gaze like two blades . He immediately became covered in sweat .
“Not… not… Not everything is worth worrying about . All you have to do is listen to boss and everything will be fine . ” Guo Ran hastily changed what he was about to say, and only then did the feeling of two blades pressing against his back fade .
Only now did he dare to turn around and stealthily glance at the distant Hua Shiyu . She was glaring at him, the warning in her eyes clear .
“Long Chen, you’re asking for it!”
Long Chen’s slap was like poking the hornet’s nest . Hu Guishan, Fan Song, and Que Xinyan immediately roared and charged over, surrounding him .
Blooddrinker was already resting on Long Chen’s shoulder, and his divine ring appeared . Killing intent overflowed from his eyes . “You should go cultivate for a few more lifetimes if you want to humiliate me . I don’t care what illness you have, if you don’t submit, let’s fight!”
“Submit, or fight! Kill them!” The Dragonblood Legion also charged over, all the disciples taking out their weapons . Everyone else became flabbergasted . Was this the inner sect competition, or the inner sect war?
“I really admire you all . You’re still so bored as to fight . ”
A cold shout suddenly rang out, startling everyone . Looking up, they saw a long-haired man standing in the air .
He was wearing battle robes covered in blood . He had dozens of cuts on his body where blood still continued to drip from .
“Senior apprentice-brother Su Mo?”
Everyone jumped in shock . This was the senior disciple Su Mo who had led them to the inner sect trial in the first place .
Although he was covered in blood, his aura was still steady and his expression was as cold as ever . But looking at their current state, a slightly helpless expression appeared on his face .
“I’m pressed for time . After I take you to your trial, I still have to return to the battlefield . Don’t waste my time and prepare yourselves,” ordered Su Mo coldly .
“Senior apprentice-brother Su Mo, it was Long Chen who went too far . He beat an innocent person, breaking the sect’s rules . He should lose his qualifications to participate in the competition!” said Hu Guishan .
Seeing Su Mo look at him, Long Chen indifferently said, “There was someone who dirtied the plaza with their shit . What I was doing was protecting the sect’s cleanliness . ”
“Bullshit, who was taking a shit?!” roared Wei Changhai furiously .
But after saying this, he suddenly saw many people looking oddly at him . It seemed that when he had provoked Long Chen before, he had spat on the ground .
“I don’t have time to listen to your nonsense . This kind of trivial matter can be left to the law enforcers . Return to your factions . I’m going to explain the rules, and if anyone dares to interrupt again, they can fuck off,” said Su Mo slightly angrily .
Only then did everyone return to their factions . Although Su Mo was just a disciple from the senior generation, and his cultivation base was only one realm higher than theirs, his killing intent was too frightening .
He seemed like a murderous devil . It was unknown when he would start taking people’s lives . Facing Su Mo gave them more pressure than facing Elders .
Su Mo announced, “Listen closely . The competition is basically the same as your previous trial, but the number of devil beasts has doubled . I don’t need to explain what you need to do . However, this time, there is no finish line, but a time limit .
“What you are competing in is the number of devil beasts you kill . That will determine the ranking of your faction .
“First place will obtain five million points . The commander will be allowed to use a top grade training room for ten days, while the faction members will be allowed to use a high grade training room for ten days free of charge .
“Second place will obtain three million points . The commander will be allowed to use a top grade training room for five days, while the faction members will be allowed to use a high grade training room for five days free of charge .
“Third place will obtain two million points . The commander will be allowed to use a top grade training room for three days, while the faction members will be allowed to use a high grade training room for three days free of charge .
“Fourth place will obtain one million points . The commander will be allowed to use a top grade training room for two days, while the faction members will be allowed to use a high grade training room for two days free of charge .
“Fifth place will obtain five hundred thousand points . The commander will be allowed to use a top grade training room for one day, while the faction members will be allowed to use a high grade training room for one day free of charge . Last place does not get any reward . ”
Everyone’s heart shook . The difference between first and second place was so immense . Was that intentional? Did they want them to go all-out fighting for it?
As for last place, there was no reward . This competition would determine life and death . Once the results of this competition were out . The difference between first and last place would be as great as heaven and earth .
“Distribute these bracelets . While you wear them, the devil beasts you kill will be recorded, and it will be easy to calculate your total points . ” Su Mo tossed a spatial ring at Long Chen and the others . They were refined bracelets similar to arm guards inside . Currently, they all had one number on them: zero . It was clear it would only change once they killed a devil beast .
Once everyone put them on, Su Mo waved his hand . Runes lit up on the bricks beneath everyone’s feet, and they felt the space twist . They were transported to a dark and gloomy world .
As soon as their feet touched the ground, an ear-splitting roar rang out and countless devil beasts charged toward them like a flood .
