With a system at his disposal, unparalleled talent, and an invincible background.
What Jun Xiaoyao wanted was to dominate this era!
All the other talented protagonists could only become supporting characters in his story, fading into obscurity.
Not to mention someone like Xiao Chen with just a bit of good fortune.
"You..."
Xiao Chen clenched his fists, gritting his teeth tightly.
To be honest, he hadn't expected to be defeated so thoroughly and miserably.
A deep sense of humiliation churned in his heart.
But he could no longer utter any arrogant words.
Because facts speak louder than words.
"Xiao Chen, that's enough. With the Young Master's strength, he could easily kill you. He's already shown you mercy," Bai Yu'er stepped forward and said.
Although she was utterly disappointed in Xiao Chen and had even nullified their engagement,
They were still childhood friends after all. While not particularly close, there was still some affection between them.
But that was the extent of it.
"Shut up, you bitch! Do I need Jun Xiaoyao's mercy?" Xiao Chen shouted in extreme anger.
Bai Yu'er meant well, but it only further irritated Xiao Chen's nerves.
His eyes, which had almost shown signs of dejection, were now refilled with indignant fury.
"This foolish girl is drawing hatred towards me..." Jun Xiaoyao thought silently.
However, this also suited his intentions perfectly.
Because Jun Xiaoyao had another plan in mind.
"You... fine, I'll take my good intentions as wasted!"
With Xiao Chen calling her a bitch repeatedly, Bai Yu'er's pretty face darkened, and the last bit of affection she had was completely eroded.
Xiao Chen was breathing heavily, his chest heaving.
He knew that he had no chance of defeating Jun Xiaoyao today.
Xiao Chen's fingers clenched tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms, bringing a piercing pain.
His gaze coldly swept over Bai Yu'er and Jun Xiaoyao as he spoke out his declaration.
"Jun Xiaoyao, don't be so smug. Fortunes rise and fall, don't underestimate the poor youth!"
"Three years from now, let's fight again!"
As Xiao Chen spoke, there was a sense of determination and tragedy in his voice, complemented by his blood-stained handsome face.
It even made some of the Jun family's young ladies look at him differently.
At this moment, Xiao Chen's unyielding will did indeed carry quite an imposing aura.
After making his bold statement, Xiao Chen turned around, dragging his injured body, leaving bloody footprints with each step as he walked out of the arena.
Even Bai Yu'er felt a slight tremor in her heart.
She seemed to envision Xiao Chen's future ascension to greatness.
However, at this moment, a cold voice rang out.
"Wait..."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen's footsteps suddenly halted.
"Did I say you could leave?" Jun Xiaoyao stood with his hands behind his back, his expression carrying a hint of playfulness.
After saying a classic line and leaving a dashing silhouette, did he think he could just leave peacefully?
Xiao Chen was thinking too simply.
"You... what do you want to do?"
Xiao Chen turned around, his face stiff.
As the Divine Son of the Jun family, shouldn't Jun Xiaoyao magnanimously let him leave, and then wait to be slapped in the face three years later?
Why wasn't he following the usual script?
"In my Jun family, to make threats against me, the Divine Son, and then think you can leave safely, what do you take my Jun family for, and what do you take me for?" Jun Xiaoyao sneered.
"Then what else do you want to do? Don't tell me you're afraid I'll defeat you three years later?" A flicker of panic flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes, but he tried to remain calm.
"Heh, don't try to provoke me. But indeed, I don't plan to kill you now," Jun Xiaoyao said with a faint smile.
"Then what do you want to do?" Hearing this, Xiao Chen relaxed slightly, but his eyes still showed wariness.
"While the death penalty can be pardoned, punishment cannot be avoided. I've set my eyes on your dragon aura."
As Jun Xiaoyao's words fell, he raised his hand.
The golden spirit sea within his body surged, rolling waves of magical power condensed into a large hand, grabbing towards Xiao Chen.
"You despicable, shameless...!" Xiao Chen's face changed drastically as he turned to flee.
But he was still easily slapped down by the golden hand.
Then Jun Xiaoyao made a grabbing motion in the air, and a long dragon's roar came from within Xiao Chen's body.
Subsequently, a semi-illusory blue dragon shadow was pulled out by Jun Xiaoyao.
This was the dragon aura that Xiao Chen possessed.
"No, my dragon aura!" Xiao Chen's eyes turned blood-red as he howled madly.
"Noisy!" Jun Xiaoyao slapped down once more.
With a loud boom, accompanied by a bone-chilling sound of breaking bones,
Most of Xiao Chen's bones were shattered, and blood gushed from his mouth like a fountain.
"You... you've destroyed all my meridians!?"
Xiao Chen's face turned deathly pale, his teeth nearly cracking from how hard he was clenching them.
Although Jun Xiaoyao didn't kill him, he had crippled him.
This way, forget three years, even in three hundred or three thousand years, he would never be able to defeat Jun Xiaoyao.
"Jun... Xiao... Yao..." Xiao Chen spat out each word, his eyes brimming with bitter resentment and fury.
The surrounding Jun family disciples also shuddered slightly, feeling a chill in their hearts.
It was the first time they had witnessed Jun Xiaoyao's cruel methods.
"Zhantian, Xiaoyao's actions are truly swift and decisive," an elder hidden in the void laughed.
"This is good. The more ruthless my grandson's methods are, the more at ease I feel," Jun Zhantian smiled.
Not only did they not find Jun Xiaoyao's actions inappropriate, but they also thought it was perfectly normal.
In the future, when the path to becoming an emperor opens, even more cruel things will happen. What's this level of cruelty compared to that?
On the arena, after obtaining the dragon aura, Jun Xiaoyao began absorbing it without any hesitation, right in front of Xiao Chen.
Continuous explosive sounds came from within his body.
It was the sound of giant elephant particles awakening one after another.
After absorbing most of the dragon aura, another ten thousand giant elephant particles awakened within Jun Xiaoyao's body.
Now, he had awakened a total of thirty thousand giant elephant particles, equivalent to three hundred million jin of giant force, which was simply terrifying.
Not only that, Jun Xiaoyao also discovered that the dragon aura was nourishing his body, making his already extraordinary Ancient Saint Body even more formidable.
Furthermore, beneath his skin, there seemed to be a layer of blue light spreading, which could transform into dragon scale inner armor for protection when needed.
"Not a bad gain," Jun Xiaoyao nodded slightly.
Then he injected the remaining, undigested half of the dragon aura into Bai Yu'er's body.
"Young Master, you..." Bai Yu'er was shocked, never expecting Jun Xiaoyao to do this.
"You have the Vermilion Bird's divine fire in your body. Paired with the Azure Dragon's aura, it should have a complementary effect," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly.
His action was naturally to win people's hearts.
In the future, he would still need Bai Yu'er to help him manage the Vermilion Bird Ancient Kingdom, so her talent couldn't be too weak.
"Thank you, Young Master!" Bai Yu'er was extremely moved, tears even glistening in her eyes.
This kindness was like giving her a new lease on life!
Witnessing this scene, Xiao Chen couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood from his heart!
Anger!
He was so furious that his five viscera felt like they were burning, his gall nearly bursting.
Jun Xiaoyao refined his dragon aura right in front of him, and even gave it away to his former fiancée.
His former fiancée, Bai Yu'er, was still fawning over Jun Xiaoyao like a devoted dog.
This made Xiao Chen's vision darken, nearly fainting from anger.
Seeing this, Jun Xiaoyao said in a serious tone: "Xiao Chen, don't be angry. I'm taking your dragon aura and crippling your cultivation for your own good."
Which protagonist hasn't suffered through countless hardships and tribulations?
If one's cultivation isn't crippled, they can hardly call themselves a protagonist.
From this perspective, Jun Xiaoyao was indeed painstakingly helping Xiao Chen.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen trembled even more violently with anger. Finally unable to contain himself, he let out a sorrowful howl to the heavens, impotently raging, before spitting blood and fainting on the ground.
