Chapter 979
Ye Fei was in a terrible mood. She realized that tonight's Battle God Banquet was completely out of her control.
She'd already lost two matches in a row, and the Thousand Faces Temple had sent out the same unfamiliar faces. The situation couldn't get any worse!
She broke out in a cold sweat. The next match was too important. She had no choice but to go up herself!
She gritted her teeth and prepared to go up when Gu Chen, who hadn't said anything yet, suddenly spoke up.
"Holy Maiden, leave the next three matches to us."
Gu Chen's group walked out. He'd already discussed it with Jiang Baiming and Penglai Island Lord.
"This match is of great importance. How can we leave it to you? Don't joke around! " Ding Han frowned. In his mind, the three of them had been avoiding the matches for so many days because they weren't strong enough.
How could he leave it to them at such a crucial moment?
"Haha, didn't you see that I was defeated in one move? If I'm not wrong, the Thousand Faces Temple has gotten many more experts for some reason. It's going to be difficult to win. "
Zheng Xicheng, who'd just been defeated, said dejectedly.
"Leave it to us. If we lose again, we won't have another chance."
Gu Chen ignored the two and looked calmly at Ye Fei.
Ye Fei thought of Gu Chen's hidden strength and asked with uncertainty, hope igniting in her heart. "How confident are you in winning this match?"
She didn't dare say that she'd win the next three matches. In her heart, she was certain that they'd lose today. All she wanted now was to save face for the Nether Realm.
"I can't say how confident, but at least we won't be defeated in one move."
Gu Chen said casually. His words made Zheng Xicheng feel so ashamed that he could not show his face.
"Alright, I'd like to see how capable you are!"
Ye Fei said expectantly. All she could do now was try her best. "Then I'll leave the next match to Daoist Chen."
"The next match isn't for me, it's for it."
Gu Chen looked at the Dragon Horse. It immediately rushed into the arena excitedly.
It was extremely aggrieved from the battle with the green ox today, and it needed a channel to vent!
Ye Fei had thought that Gu Chen was going to fight personally. He did not expect that he would only send his own mount. Before he could even ask, the Dragon Horse had already gone up on its own. Ye Fei could only stare helplessly at the stage.
The guests of the Divine Palm Tree Tower were in an uproar when they saw the Nether Realm sending out a spirit beast. Had the Nether Realm given up on themselves?
But before they could question, a resounding dragon roar came from the stage!
Under Gu Chen's instruction that there was no need for it to hide its strength, the Dragon Horse transformed back into its true form!
Its entire body was covered in dark green dragon scales, its limbs were strong and powerful, and its two Ancestral Dragon horns had completely manifested.
It snorted softly, and a horrifying aura instantly filled the entire arena. The burning True Life Fire made it look even more majestic!
All of a sudden, the entire Divine Tree Tower exploded!
"What a terrifying Dragon Horse. Its bloodline is unimaginably powerful!"
"No wonder it could cause such a huge commotion in the afternoon. So it was hiding its true form!"
The eyes of the Immeasurable Demon God Sect and the other demonic sects lit up. The Dragon Horse before them was the talent that their sects wanted the most!
"I want this Dragon Horse!"
In the private room upstairs, Gu Xunfeng's face showed a hint of interest.
Everyone knew that the orthodoxy of his True Spirit Clan was closely related to the various True Spirits in the universe, and this Dragon Horse was a type of True Spirit.
With his innate senses, he could sense that the Dragon Horse's bloodline was extraordinary. Thus, he was moved on the spot!
"Hmph, how can an ordinary spirit horse have that kind of strength?"
The green ox squatted beside Ji Lanchu and snorted as it looked at the Dragon Horse's majestic appearance on the stage.
"Please enlighten me."
The participant from the Thousand Faces Shrine was initially dissatisfied with the Nether Realm sending out a spirit beast. But the moment the Dragon Horse transformed, he had no objections.
The strength of such a desolate beast was not to be underestimated!
"Take this!"
With Gu Chen's permission, the Dragon Horse was extremely excited. As soon as the battle started, it charged forward with its hooves!
Its fighting style was extremely violent, completely relying on its thick hide to crush its opponent.
The participant from the Thousand Faces Shrine snorted. In the next moment, a powerful aura surged from his body.
"Another Hierarch realm!"
When Ye Fei saw this, the confidence that he had gained from the True Form of the Dragon Horse fell to the bottom again.
What's going on with the Thousand Faces Shrine? Why did so many Hierarch realm experts suddenly appear?
While she was feeling anxious, the Dragon Horse had already started clashing with the Hierarch realm experts.
Gu Chen watched calmly from below the stage. He was extremely confident in the Dragon Horse.
Although the Dragon Horse was still half a step away from the Hierarch realm, its physical strength could be said to be second only to him due to the Ancestral Dragon's powerful bloodline.
Furthermore, it had evolved its Natal True Fire. That Natal True Fire had been strengthened by the Heavenvoid Cauldron and his Mortal Flames Secret Technique. Its strength had long evolved. It would not be a problem to deal with a mere Early Hierarch realm expert.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The battle between the two sides quickly reached its climax. The Dragon Horse relied on its thick hide to withstand a wave of attacks from its opponent. It then opened its mouth and spat out its Natal True Fire. The participant from the Pure Spirit Kingdom was instantly drowned in a sea of flames and howled miserably.
Under Gu Chen's instructions, it did not hold back. Hence, when the participant from the Thousand Faces Shrine was taken down from the arena, his skin was torn and his flesh was exposed!
"Aren't you guys being a little too harsh?"
Jun Ruoxie from the Thousand Faces Shrine stood at the side of the arena and asked in a gloomy tone.
He originally thought he could easily win one hundred Star Passages from the Nether Realm. Who would have thought that there would be such an unexpected turn of events!
"I'm sorry, this spiritual beast of mine is not very obedient, so I didn't know how to control my strength."
Gu Chen replied coldly. As soon as he said that, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
At that moment, many people who did not know the ins and outs of the battle realized that the Dragon Horse had a master!
"It's inevitable to lose in a battle. No one expected your people to be so weak."
Ye Fei was overjoyed at the Dragon Horse's victory and naturally stood on Gu Chen's side to speak.
Seeing that he was being teased, Jun Ruoxie snorted coldly and accepted his loss.
He did not believe that the Nether Realm would be able to send out any more experts for the next two matches!
The Dragon Horse walked down the arena with a smug look on its face.
Zheng Xicheng and Ding Han, who had previously looked down on Gu Chen's group, felt a chill run down their spines when they saw that even one of Chen Gu's mounts was this strong.
They had looked down on others before, but that did not mean they were stupid.
It was obvious that this group of people had not made a move in the past few days not because they were not strong enough, but because they did not want to!
The way they looked at Gu Chen's group had completely changed. The other party had suddenly become unfathomable!
"Brother Jiang, how about we leave the next battle to you?"
Gu Chen looked at Jiang Baiming.
