Chapter 970: 970

“What happened?!”

Everyone was startled by this sudden change . They hadn’t seen how this person had disappeared . Even Long Chen’s guard went up, as this change was too sudden .

“Heavens, he’s flown out!” Someone let out a startled cry . Looking outside the flying boat, they saw a figure rapidly shrinking and disappearing . Although it had just been an instant, they had still managed to see that senior disciple’s look of despair and terror .

“I’ve already said that anyone who dares to say that something is unfair in front of me should be ready to be thrown out . Did you treat my words as just wind through your ears?”

Just at this moment, the cold Elder Sha appeared in front of them . They felt pity for that disciple . Just because he had said something was unfair, he had been thrown out . With how large the Eastern Wasteland was, it was unknown if he would be able to find his way back .

“Hmph, he should count himself lucky . This place is still above the Eastern Wasteland . With his cultivation base, he has a high chance of being able to live to find a cultivation city and return to the Xuantian Dao Sect . A bit further and we’d have entered the region of the Martial Heaven Sea . Then he’d have died . I don’t care if you’re a newcomer or an old disciple, you better all remember that rules are rules . When you don’t have the power to break them, be well-behaved,” said Elder Sha .

This was Long Chen’s first time feeling that Elder Sha wasn’t so dislikable . Although his refusal to compromise or bend was displeasing, after this event, Long Chen realized that he should simply be a stubborn old man . He was the kind of person who followed the rules no matter what .

Although this kind of person wasn’t someone easy to like, he also wouldn’t cause others to feel too much dislike for him . Now that he understood his temper, things would be much easier .

“Did you hear him? Elder Sha has said that as long as we don’t break the rules, anything goes . Whoever wants to go challenge them can go ahead . Don’t miss this opportunity . It’s not just any time that you can beat the senior generation disciples . Furthermore, while you beat them, they can’t even release their true power and can only use the Sea Expansion realm’s power . Whether it’s for tempering yourself or probing how strong the experts from the Central Plains are, it’s a great opportunity . Brothers, what are you waiting for?” said Long Chen .

His words caused the senior disciples to be infuriated . Why was it that at their generation, things were reversed? When they had come to the Central Plains, they had been bullied . Now that they finally had a chance to repay the favor and teach a lesson to these brats, they were once more the bullied targets .

One of the Dragonblood warriors jumped onto the martial stage and pointed at a senior disciple, directly challenging him .

With Elder Sha present, that disciple didn’t dare to hesitate . He immediately jumped onto the martial stage and began a fierce fight with the Dragonblood warrior .

But what startled everyone was that the Dragonblood warrior didn’t release his Spirit Blood . He fought without it .

“Why aren’t you activating your Spirit Blood? Are you looking down on me?!” shouted the senior disciple . He felt like he was being looked down upon . He would rather be defeated than suffer this insult .

“Since you can’t use your full power, then I’ll also hold back . Furthermore, I’m a rank three Celestial while you’re only rank two . I already have such an advantage, so if I activated my Spirit Blood, it would be unfair . Let me see just how strong the experts of the Central Plains are . Even if I lose, I won’t use my Spirit Blood,” said the Dragonblood warrior . Runes filled the air as his fists danced . Other than not using his Spirit Blood, he wasn’t holding back at all .

Elder Sha’s expression was still icy, but a bit of praise appeared in his eyes . It was rare to see such a courageous disciple .

Hearing this, the people who had fought before immediately felt regret . Other than some satisfaction from being posers, they had gained nothing . The right decision was to see just how strong the Central Plains’ experts were .

“Hey, what are you all looking at me for?! When you were being posers, you looked so happy . Now you want to push all the responsibility on me?!” Guo Ran glared back at the few people that were glaring at him .

Those people didn’t say anything . They just watched the battle . That Dragonblood warrior’s cultivation base was at the fifth Heavenstage of Sea Expansion, and three-colored runes revolved around him .

As for the senior disciple, his cultivation base was suppressed to the peak of Sea Expansion . With each wave of his hand, runes shot out . His techniques were extremely refined . This was the skillful control of a Foundation Forging expert .

The Dragonblood warriors’ expressions grew graver as the battle progressed because they were now at a disadvantage . The power of these senior disciples was now finally showing .

Although their cultivation bases had been suppressed, their skill in magical arts was unmatched . They came in an unending stream with almost no cast time and left no openings between their moves .

The Dragonblood warrior exchanged over a hundred blows against the senior disciple, testing all kinds of methods, but was unable to escape from his disadvantageous position . Suddenly, he shouted, “Be careful!”

A saber appeared within his hand . A fierce aura soared and berserk killing intent caused everyone to turn cold .

His saber slashed out three times in a row, each time shattering his opponent’s attack . On the third time, it blasted through his opponent’s runic shield and stopped less than an inch from his head .

A drop of blood fell from the senior disciple’s head . That quiet sound struck like a hammer in all the senior disciples’ hearts .

The instant the Dragonblood warrior had brought out that saber, it had felt like he had transformed into a bloodthirsty fiend . His boundless killing intent had shaken them to their core . The senior disciple had been terrified and instantly defeated .

Seeing this, Long Chen couldn’t help but shake his head . They were more like greenhouse flowers that possessed power but couldn’t release it .

It went without saying that the Central Plains’ experts were powerful . But when it came to the firmness of their wills, they were much weaker than the Dragonblood warriors .

“You’ve lost . How boring . You didn’t lose to me, but to the terror in your heart . ” The Dragonblood warrior shook his head and returned to his side .

That senior disciple remained on the martial stage for a long time, and only after a while did he react . He turned completely red when he realized the meaning of his words .

When the Dragonblood warrior had released his killing intent, the senior disciple had been enveloped by a sensation of death . In that instant, the first thing he had thought of was to flee . But then he immediately thought to himself that his opponent wouldn’t dare to kill him . However, what if he did end up dying?

His head had been a complete mess . That made him ashamed . Now he didn’t even feel like a cultivator, or a man .

Elder Sha didn’t say a word . He stood there like a statue, but he also didn’t leave .

Following the senior disciple’s defeat, the Dragonblood warriors began a series of challenges . Some of them even said that they wouldn’t kill them so they could attack as they pleased .

But whenever the Dragonblood warriors released their killing intent, it made it impossible for their opponents to believe that . Feeling that killing intent enveloping them, the senior disciples were unable to release even eighty percent of the power they should have been able to .

Over ten of them were defeated in a row . The Dragonblood warriors were starting to get less excited, feeling like such a battle didn’t have any meaning .

Long Chen had long since told them not to fight any meaningless battles . The reason they were fighting now was merely to test the strength of the Central Plains’ experts . But now the senior disciples were too terrified to fight . Originally, they had thought that the threat of death would allow the senior disciples to release their true power, thinking it would be oil on fire . But instead, it was like water on fire, and their flames had extinguished . So what was the point of still fighting?

The Dragonblood warriors lost the desire to fight . The other experts had an urge to fight, but then they also didn’t dare to .

“If you don’t even dare to lose, what qualifications do you have to win?” said one of the Dragonblood warriors . That encouragement finally tipped the scales .

Someone immediately went up to fight . As a result, he was beaten in just a moment . But now, a loss was just a loss, and he didn’t suffer any humiliation .

In the past, the newcomers would all be bullied by the senior generation in order to grind down their sharpness . It was to avoid them being arrogant once they arrived in the Central Plains and refusing to be managed .

But this generation was different . These senior disciples didn’t dare to go too far now . They were afraid of provoking the Dragonblood warriors .

The ordinary disciples weren’t a match for the senior disciples, while the Dragonblood warriors weren’t interested in wasting time on the senior disciples . The atmosphere became a bit awkward .

“You, girl, do you dare to fight me without activating your Spirit Blood?” Suddenly, Wang Mang, who had been silent throughout these proceedings, jumped onto the martial stage and challenged Meng Qi .

“Courting death!” Wang Mang’s actions immediately infuriated the Dragonblood warriors . Meng Qi was always peaceful, isolating herself from battles whenever she could . She was like a fairy beyond the mundane world .

Furthermore, she was clearly a soul cultivator . For Wang Mang to dare to challenge a soul cultivator, he definitely had a protective soul item . Combined with the limited space of the martial arena, he had an immense advantage over Meng Qi . He was truly sinister .

“Wang Mang, I don’t know if you are really this stupid or you were bribed by someone . But you’ve succeeded in infuriating me . How about this, Wang Mang? I’ll give you a chance . I, Long Chen, possess no Spirit Blood, nor am I a Celestial . I’ll fight you . You can use your full power and not suppress your cultivation base at all . We’ll have a life and death battle,” said Long Chen coldly .

Toward other people’s insults, disdain, and contempt, Long Chen could brush it off with a laugh . But he didn’t allow others to touch his reverse scale .

Everyone jumped in fright, especially those senior disciples . They looked in horror at Long Chen . Was he crazy? He wanted to challenge the Foundation Forging Wang Man to a life and death battle?

Only the Dragonblood warriors had excited expressions as they all looked forward to seeing Long Chen fight . Each time, they would feel their blood boiling .

Wang Mang’s expression changed, because in that instant, a terrifying sensation of death rose in his heart . That feeling was like a death god was staring at him .

“That is against the rules . It is not permitted!” said Elder Sha, his voice icy without the slightest emotion .
