Lin Chen's overpowering intention to kill burst forth once more at Chen Lingfeng's words.
Every collision between the two would cause a gust of wind.
Chen Lingfeng was astonishingly quick. Blades of wind flowed from his fists, followed by flowing water, which completely canceled out his opponent's strength upon impact. His technique was ingenious.
Lin Chen attacked several times in a row, but Chen Lingfeng deflected them all.
"Is that all you've got?"
Sensing his advantage, Chen Lingfeng couldn't help but smirk.
His gaze grew increasingly playful.
It seemed as though the other party's life was already in his hands.
From beginning to end, Chen Lingfeng had never truly regarded Lin Chen as an equal.
This was not a competition between equals!
He could easily kill his opponent if he wanted.
He was only at the eighth level of the Earth Spirit Realm, yet he dared to fight me.
It's like an ant provoking an elephant, utterly ridiculous!
Their gazes met once more.
Chen Lingfeng's heart quivered as he sensed an increasingly intense and scorching intent to kill within the other party's eyes.
He frowned slightly at that moment. Was this kid insane? How dared he harbor such murderous intent toward him despite the vast gap between them?
Not only Chen Lingfeng, but even the spectators from all directions whispered.
"This kid's realm isn't as high as Chen Lingfeng's, and his spirit beast is inferior to the Black Tortoise. How can he fight this battle!?"
"That's right. Although he was lucky enough to win against Su Huanxue, he's certainly no match for Chen Lingfeng."
"It seems that the quota for the second-grade sect will undoubtedly fall into the hands of the Misty Sword Sect this time."
"The landscape of the Five Kingdoms is about to alter!"
The clamor was deafening. Clearly, everyone believed that Chen Lingfeng would emerge victorious.
After all, he was the young master of the Chen Clan of the Eastern Origin Domain.
In terms of natural talent and status, Lin Chen could not compare to him.
Chen Yun's expression remained calm upon the high platform, as though he had everything under control.
He would use this battle to eliminate Lin Chen with overwhelming force, further establishing the prestige of the Chen Clan within the Eastern Origin Domain.
If he could recruit some talented disciples, then this trip would not have been in vain.
As for Su Huanxue, what a pity!
With her talent and strength, she shouldn't have died so young.
If she had married into the Chen Clan, she would have played a significant role.
"Heaven-grade martial art, Water Gathering Fist!"
Chen Lingfeng performed mysterious steps, suddenly clenching his fingers into a fist as he neared Lin Chen. The surface of his fist was enveloped in a layer of flowing water. It appeared tranquil, but in reality, it concealed terrifying power.
If it were to land, one's skin would peel off, even if they survived!
"Heaven-grade martial art!"
Su Hongyi's expression darkened on the Blazing Sun Sect's side, his teeth gritted. "Lin Chen has only been in the sect for half a year. He's not qualified to learn heaven-grade martial arts. He'll undoubtedly suffer a great loss in this battle with Chen Lingfeng!"
Su Yuwei, on the other hand, appeared nonchalant and said calmly, "Don't worry about him."
"Hm?"
Su Hongyi was startled. He knew that his daughter often secretly sent cultivation resources to Lin Chen.
Could it be that those contained heaven-grade martial arts?
"Lin Chen's talent is remarkable. He has developed some martial art techniques of his own. In terms of power, they're not inferior to heaven-grade martial arts."
Su Yuwei's tone was calm and devoid of emotion, but if one listened closely, they could detect a hint of pride in her words.
After all, Lin Chen was her chosen one.
The more talented Lin Chen proved to be, the more glory it brought to her.
"Devised his own heaven-grade martial arts?"
Fang Luo's expression changed upon hearing this. "That's impossible. Many peerless geniuses have failed to accomplish this, so why is he able to?"
However, Su Yuwei simply turned her head away without even sparing Fang Luo a glance.
Fang Luo's pupils constricted abruptly, and his fists clenched involuntarily.
"Creak."
When he raised his head again, his gaze toward Lin Chen was filled with even more envy.
Why had Su Yuwei shown no interest in him but cared so deeply for Lin Chen?
Why?
In the arena.
Facing Chen Lingfeng's Water Gathering Fist, Lin Chen unexpectedly refused to retreat. A sharp coldness flashed in his eyes as he raised his hand and fiercely retaliated.
His palm transformed continuously in midair.
Dragon Jade Palm!
Cleftstone Palm!
The two martial arts were executed nearly simultaneously.
Lin Chen's palm, as clear as crystal jade, radiated faint draconic energy as it struck.
Even the void let out a fierce gust of wind!
"Boom!"
Fists and palms collided, unleashing a violent shockwave that roared and vibrated in all directions.
Both individuals retreated abruptly upon impact, their feet carving two deep furrows into the ground beneath them!
This illustrated the terrifying force behind this collision!
Chen Lingfeng's brow creased slightly. Where had this kid learned these martial arts?
He had even mastered a heaven-grade martial art of his own!
However, he did not dwell on it for long and raised his hand to execute the Water Gathering Fist once more.
This time, the momentum was far more formidable than before, accompanied by the deafening roar of rushing water.
Under Chen Lingfeng's conscious control, the water gradually coalesced into the shape of a water dragon. It surged forth from Chen Lingfeng's fist and roared toward Lin Chen!
Lin Chen's figure resembled lightning as he dodged the attack sideways.
The water dragon swept past him with tremendous force, sending chills down his spine!
This water was extremely cold.
Any skin contact would induce a stinging sensation akin to countless needles.
Lin Chen twisted his body, closing in on Chen Lingfeng and striking fiercely.
"Dragon Jade Palm!"
He formed a fist with his five fingers and struck Chen Lingfeng hard in the face.
But Chen Lingfeng reacted with astonishing speed, blocking the attack with both hands.
"Boom!"
A deafening sound rang out, and Chen Lingfeng's expression shifted slightly.
He felt as though his entire arm had been rendered useless and numb.
He could not muster an ounce of strength.
He was taken aback. This seemingly unremarkable fist technique was so overbearing and ruthless!
A single blow had dealt him such a blow that he could not withstand it!
At the same time, a more intense murderous intent surged within Chen Lingfeng.
This kid must die today!
If he were to be spared, he would undoubtedly become a future menace.
Chen Lingfeng roared, and his fists and kicks flew out one after another like a storm.
"Crack!"
Fists and kicks struck with such force that they not only produced a sharp whistling sound but also left afterimages in their wake. The scene was simply violent and unparalleled, like a tempestuous storm.
This relentless onslaught left countless spectators outside the arena feeling numb.
Many contestants' faces paled, and their hearts pounded.
If they were to face Chen Lingfeng, how long could they withstand such an insane offense?
I'm afraid they wouldn't last three breaths!
On the contrary, Lin Chen remained calm and composed.
He fought while retreating.
He neutralized his opponent's overwhelming force with subtle evasive maneuvers.
His movements were orderly and not the least bit chaotic.
