If not for his younger brother's reminder, he will definitely be in deep trouble.
Just thinking about Long Chen being able to defeat the 10th to 4th place rankers clearly demonstrated his exceptional talent.
He was only a new disciple!
Who knew what heights he could possibly reach in the future?
If Yang Yun had truly provoked Long Chen and incurred his wrath, he was not certain if the Yang family would save him, or give him up.
This, was the might of a genius!
They were not afraid of their current strength, but rather afraid of how his future achievements.
Yang Yun slightly shivered as he thought about this, before he quickly comforted himself for his wise decision just now.
Shooting another glare at the rat-face youth, he slowly walked away.
Long Chen did not know of this occurrence that he had incurred.
He was patiently waiting for his next opponent, his expression casual and serene, looking nothing like a person who had just been through a few fights with the various geniuses of the Sect.
A while later, he spotted a suave youth making his way up the arena.
He had his hair tied up into a bun, a smile adorned on his face, giving one a feeling of peace and comfort.
"Are you Long Chen?" He asked politely.
"I'm Long Chen, a recently joined disciple, here to challenge you." Long Chen replied with a light smile.
Towards such a kind looking opponent, he naturally possessed some good will towards him.
Since his opponent respected him, he will similarly respect him back.
"Make your move." Long Chen gestured towards the youth.
He had never once initiated a strike before.
This was because he knew that his current strength was far beyond his opponent, and that if he had made the first move, they will not be able to even showcase their skills and prowess.
What he wanted, was to analyze his opponent's moves.
Even if it was just one move, he will still provide some help for him in his future battles.
As Long Chen words landed, the youth suddenly retracted his warm aura, replacing that was a sharp aura that was akin to a sword.
The youth was not polite.
He charged towards Long Chen, with his fists placed behind him, preparing and gathering up strength.
It was evident that the youth fought with his fists as form of weapon.
When the youth was closely approaching him, a faint glow of light shone from his fists.
This was the Qi energy that was stored within it, and upon contact, his fists would burst out with a tremendous force.
Long Chen's eyebrows were raised up in interest.
He had never encountered a fist fighter before.
A fist fighter was a close ranged fighter. They were weak from far, but when they are close, they all possessed destructive strength.
Long Chen eyes brightened, as he sheathed the sword away from his hands, then place his right fist out, seemingly wanting to collide with the youth's attacks using his bare fists.
"It's the yellow grade 5 Leopard Fists!"
The crowd were able to notice the skill that the youth had used.
They looked up in rapt attention, not wanting to miss a single detail.
The last time, Long Chen managed to singlehandedly stop Pang Qian's full-powered attack.
What shocking scene was he going to show everyone right now?
At this moment, the youth's fists collided against Long Chen's fists.
Skin against skin. Bone against Bone. Fists against Fist.
The youth stumbled back, as he retreated by 3 steps.
Long Chen stood sturdy and stable, still standing in his original position.
The crowd roared like thunder.
With one look, it was obvious who had lost.
The youth went back by 3 steps, while Long Chen did not move.
And the most astonishing thing was that Long Chen had no signs of using a skill at all.
He was taking in the impact of the youth's Grade 5 Leopard Fists solely with the strength of his fleshly body!
The youth stared at Long Chen in astonishment.
He was certain of the power that his fists were able to unleash, yet Long Chen was able to rely solely on his own body to take on the impact!
Afterwards, an indomitable spirit rose from within the youth, as his expression showed of someone eager to battle!
He had never met someone within the younger generation take could fight body to body before.
Now, there was a person who could compare with him, and was even slightly stronger than him.
How could he not be excited?
Maybe, this was his chance for a breakthrough in his fists arts!
"Come!" The youth shouted, raising his fists yet again.
Long Chen nodded his head, as a notification flashed fast his mind.
[Host has learned the Yellow Grade 5 Leopard Fists]
His eyes shone with a glint of curiosity.
Why was it that the system automatically made him comprehend this skill, when there were so many other skills that he had personally saw before, yet there were no notifications that had popped up?
Was it because of the Grades were too low, which was why the system didn't bother to record it down?
Whatever. He could contemplate about his at a later time.
Now, all he had to do, was indulge in an enjoyable match.
He deliberately suppressed his cultivation down to meet the youth's, at the 5th Refining Realm.
The youth was second on the Heaven's Pride Ranking, named Bing Mu
He was recorded to have a 4th Qi Refining Cultivation, but it seemed like had made a breakthrough.
The geniuses on the Heaven's Pride Ranking were indeed not simple.
He utilized the Leopard Fists according to the information within his mind.
A faint glow similar to the youths' flashed on his fists.
"The Leopard Fists! How is this possible…?" The youth looked towards Long Chen in astonishment.
He clearly could recognize the skill that Long Chen was using.
It was performed quite weakly, as though it was only recently learned, however it could still be considered as the Leopard Fists.
"I learned it just now." Long Chen cleared his doubts, yet giving him another shock within his mind.
Waves of surging current rose within the youths' heart, his expression far from calm.
He had only performed the move once, in a quick flash, and Long Chen could instantly grasped onto the fundamentals of the move?
It was a Yellow Grade 5 Skill, possessing difficulty much higher than an average combat skill.
Many disciples were not able to even perform the move after spending weeks of learning, and yet Long Chen seemed to have learnt it in a flash?
The youth sighed within his heart. Long Chen's comprehension talent, was far from his range of limits.
He was hailed as a talent, but was far from being able to compare to him.
He shook this thought out from his mind, as his eyebrows tightened, seriously focusing on the current match.
With a loud cry, both of them waved their Leopard Fists with each other, exchanging fists against fists.
If Long Chen retreated, he will advance. If Long Chen attacked, he will defend.
This endless cycle continued for a long while, till the point where the audience could only catch a slight shadow of the rapidly moving and colliding fists.
At this point of time, the mysterious elder from the Pavilion had unknowingly arrived in the scene, as his eyes that were as vast as a sea peered intently at Long Chen's body.
His silently murmured to himself, "In 3 days, he managed to go from the 3th Qi Refining Realm, to the 8th Qi Refining Realm."
"And he managed to learn the Leopard Fists after one glance. Although his comprehension is only at a rudimentary stage, but as the match goes on, he is becoming stronger and stronger, even taking the advantage after suppressing his cultivation. His talent, is definitely not just a mere Tier 11."
"His potential, cannot be measured with my eyes." The mysterious elder finally ended his analysis of Long Chen
The mysterious elder deeply sighed while shaking his head, giving one last look towards Long Chen, before he disappeared from the scene, as if he was never there.
If anyone else were to hear his words, they will be completely dumbfounded.
Because this elder had almost the same status as the patriarch of the Sect.
He had lived for many centuries, his cultivation deep and unfathomable, what kind of geniuses has he never seen in his life before?
Even the Chosens of the Sect, were only given a 'passable' grade.
And now he had judged Long Chen's talent to be immeasurable. At least within his current world view.
This news, if revealed, will totally set raging waves and surging currents upon the entire city
This, was definitely countless times more astonishing, than the news of a Mortal Tier 11 Talent.
Because not even a Tier 11 Talent could get such a high evaluation from him.
