Chapter 319
Chen Yu's improvement shocked Yuan Chen.
A year ago, he could easily dodge Chen Yu's attacks, but now, he was being closely followed by Chen Yu, and it would be difficult for him to escape if he didn't show his true abilities.
Pa!
Yuan Chen stretched out his hand and slapped out a mysterious ice palm shadow, which collided with Chen Yu's fist. Boom!
Bang!
The ice demonic qi exploded, and both of them took a few steps back at the same time.
"What powerful True Qi. It seems that Junior Brother's attainments in the Sky Demon Mystic Pattern are not low."
Yuan Chen was a little surprised.
He didn't use his full strength in that attack just now and only used his True Qi.
In the exchange, they were actually evenly matched, and he didn't gain any advantage.
In fact, the True Qi of a top elite like Yuan Chen was slightly stronger than Chen Yu's demonic qi. However, Chen Yu had activated the Mystic Pattern Fiend Body, so the two were evenly matched.
"Little Junior Brother, you have to be careful next."
Yuan Chen reminded with a smile.
He only casually faced the first attack and didn't use his full strength.
Swish!
After saying that, Yuan Chen's movement technique disappeared, leaving behind an afterimage, and he quickly approached Chen Yu.
Roar ~
Not daring to be careless, Chen Yu activated the Demon Fiend Secret Technique, stirring up a demonic wind, and rushed out.
Yuan Chen's palm landed on Chen Yu's previous position, destroying his afterimage.
Then, he chased again.
Boom!
The two of them clashed in the chase.
Chen Yu felt his arm turn cold as a cold, yin energy invaded his body.
Fortunately, the Mystic Pattern Fiend Body was extremely resistant to the Dao of Evil, so it wasn't affected much.
Yuan Chen also knew that Chen Yu cultivated the Sky Demon Mystic Pattern Record, so he had a stronger resistance to the Dao of Evil, but he didn't expect Chen Yu to be able to block his attack.
Whoosh!
Yuan Chen's palm arrived again.
The cold force emitted by this palm was even more powerful, and countless ice crystal fragments danced around his palm.
Chen Yu immediately took out the Giant Ruler Sword and slashed.
Although he had switched to the Dao of Evil and the power of the Demon Fiend Sword Technique was not as good as before, his sword skills were still there.
Ding ding Peng!
Chen Yu's tremendous strength, fully utilizing the weight advantage of the [Giant Ruler Sword], clashed repeatedly with Yuan Chen.
Soon, the two of them were nearing the agreed twenty moves.
"Chen 'er, don't go easy on Junior Brother. If he doesn't have enough strength, participating in the Academy's Grand Competition will only bring shame to him. He might even lose his life."
Master Yi Lantian said in a low voice.
"Profound Ice Palm."
A trace of seriousness appeared in Yuan Chen's eyes. Cold energy erupted from his palm, and the surrounding temperature plummeted.
In the void, there seemed to be a palm condensed from the power of ice, slapping towards Chen Yu.
With Yuan Chen's movement technique, it was impossible for Chen Yu to dodge this palm strike.
"Demonic Destruction Claw!"
Chen Yu switched the Profound Heavy Sword to his other hand, and the demonic pattern qi on his right hand surged crazily.
The devil claw marks on his arm suddenly climbed up and covered Chen Yu's arm and palm.
Phew ~
A claw flashed out, and the jet-black demonic energy formed a sinister and terrifying demonic claw. It was covered with strange patterns, appearing ancient and evil.
Bang!
The demonic claw and the ice palm collided, setting off an icy demonic energy storm.
After this move, the two of them did not attack again.
"The twenty moves are up. Junior Brother has improved rapidly. With such strength, your results in the Academy's Grand Competition won't be too bad."
Yuan Chen smiled.
"Chen 'er, you've only used 05% of your strength. You haven't even used Quintessential Essence."
Yi Lantian was very calm.
In the past year, Yuan Chen had also improved a lot, and the conversion rate of his Quintessential Essence to Quintessential Essence had reached 35%.
However, Yi Lantian knew that Chen Yu did not use all his means.
"Chen Yu, you've only cultivated to the second level of the 'Sky Demon Secret Pattern Records', and you already have such power. Do you have any special physique?"
Yi Lantian then looked at Chen Yu and asked.
"My physique is indeed better than ordinary people."
Chen Yu replied, not revealing the secret of the mysterious heart.
"I'll allow you to participate in the Academy's Grand Competition. In ten days, the Academy will hold a battle for the quota. Prepare yourself."
…
Chen Yu could only participate in the Academy's Grand Competition after receiving his master's approval.
After returning to his residence, Chen Yu continued to cultivate in seclusion to increase his strength.
Originally, he wanted to participate in the Academy's Grand Competition to see the talents of the entire Yunzhao Nation.
However, after cultivating the 'Sky Demon Secret Pattern Records', Chen Yu felt that if he could make a breakthrough in this technique, his strength would greatly increase, and he would be able to shine in the Academy's Grand Competition and achieve a better result.
Unfortunately, time was limited, and there was only one month before the Academy's Grand Competition.
At this moment, Chen Yu seized every minute and second to increase his cultivation.
In the spare time when he was cultivating the 'Sky Demon Secret Pattern Records', Chen Yu activated the Flame Control Technique to absorb and refine more of the sealed [Blood Glazed Flame].
This flame was extremely powerful. In the past, Chen Yu had only refined one-tenth of it.
At this moment, the strength of his cultivation and spiritual sense had increased.
In less than a day, Chen Yu had refined three-tenths of the [Blood Glazed Flame], and he did not refine any more after that.
Soon, ten days had passed.
Chen Yu's' Sky Demon Secret Pattern Records' had reached the Greater Mastery of the second level, and it would be difficult for him to make a breakthrough in a short period of time. These ten days only made Chen Yu's cultivation a little more stable. After all, he had not been cultivating this technique for long, and he was anxious for results.
"The competition for the spots has begun."
Chen Yu walked out of the courtyard and headed for the Demonic Sky Peak.
On the way, many students were rushing to the Demonic Sky Peak, and many of them took the initiative to greet Chen Yu warmly.
The Demonic Sky Peak was surrounded by students.
Of course, most of them were there to watch the competition.
There were only twenty people who could participate in the Academy's Grand Competition, and they were destined to be the twenty strongest in the academy.
"Brother Chen!"
Not far away, Kong Zhong, dressed in a black robe, greeted him and took the initiative to walk over.
"Brother Kong, are you going to compete for a spot?"
Chen Yu asked.
Kong Zhong was currently at the peak of the middle Connate stage. If he broke through to the late Connate stage, he would be able to get a spot.
He was not as talented as Duan Hao, Nie Xuan, and the others, and he did not have the support of his family. His cultivation speed was already very fast.
"I'll give it a try!"
Kong Zhong smiled and wanted to give it a try.
Ascending the Demonic Sky Peak, Chen Yu saw many familiar faces with a glance.
Among the students of the Evil Spirit Academy, Situ Linyu's eyes flickered as he looked at Chen Yu.
"I knew that you would participate in the Academy's Grand Competition."
Situ Linyu smiled leisurely.
In the Freshmen Competition, he had lost to Chen Yu, but he was not convinced.
During this period of time, he had been adventuring in the outer region, taking on the most dangerous missions to train himself.
Right now, he had reached the late Connate Realm, and he was an existence that everyone in the Evil Spirit Academy revolved around.
Apart from him, Duan Hao, Jin Zhuofeng, Shang Han, Luo Haotian, and the others also looked at Chen Yu.
Luo Haotian stared at Chen Yu with a trace of anger and helplessness.
In the past, Chen Yu was only an ant in his eyes. But now, Chen Yu had grown to such a level that he could compete with him on the same stage.
"Senior Luo, we buried Chen Yu underground that day, but he had the trump card given to him by the Vice-Principal. Otherwise, he would have died for sure."
The long-haired man who hunted the Demonic Blaze Lizard with Chen Yu said.
"It's fine. If I encounter him in the Academy's Grand Competition, I will make him lose miserably."
Luo Haotian said with a confident face.
"What did he do to be accepted as a disciple by the Vice-Principal?!"
Shang Han of the four super families spat out a few words.
With her pride, Chen Yu did not have a good ending when he offended her.
But Yuan Chen's sudden appearance changed everything.
After waiting for a long time.
A senior Branch Principal stood up and said, "The Academy's Grand Competition's quota competition will now begin …"
The rules of the competition were very simple.
The top 75 would be chosen from the top 75 students of the Myriad Demon Tower.
Thereafter, anyone could issue a challenge to these 75 people, but they could not challenge the same person consecutively.
When there were no more challenges, the remaining 75 people would be the participants of the Academy's Grand Competition.
Not far away from the challenge stage stood 75 people. They had become the focus of the entire Demonic Sky Peak.
The first person was Yuan Chen. He wore a simple yellow robe and had a calm smile on his face.
The second person was the top student of the Demonic Fire Peak, Luo Haotian.
The third person was the top student of the Demonic Wind Academy, Ren Han.
The fourth person was Jin Zhuofeng.
…
Those ranked in the top 75 were almost all older students.
"There's no rush!"
Chen Yu found a place and waited patiently.
There were more people in the Demonic Sky Peak, and there were more people to challenge.
Chen Yu's cultivation was low. Even if he obtained one of the quotas, he would still be challenged by many people.
Therefore, he decided to wait for a while.
Kong Zhong was the same. His cultivation was only at the peak of the Xiantian Realm, and he did not have much confidence.
Whoosh!
A figure dashed onto the challenge stage.
This person was tall and had an ugly face. Chen Yu happened to know him. It was Wei Bin.
Chen Yu had bought some high-quality Fire Spirit Ginseng from this person during the Dark Night Exchange.
The last time Chen Yu challenged the pagoda, he happened to see Wei Bin challenging the pagoda, and he reached the 82th level.
"I'll be the first. Wu Hong, hand over your position!"
Wei Bin shouted as he looked at the fifteenth-ranked man.
"As you wish."
A well-proportioned man in green clothes walked onto the challenge stage with his hands behind his back.
Without a word, the two of them suddenly attacked.
Clang!
The saber and sword clashed violently, releasing a wave of ice and fire.
"Haha! Again!"
Wei Bin laughed as he slashed madly with the dark-red saber in his hand, unleashing a flaming saber radiance.
The man in green clothes stabbed out with his sword. His swordsmanship was exquisite and airtight.
Both of them had reached the peak of the Xiantian Realm.
This battle did not last long.
"Blazing Golden Slash!"
Wei Bin shouted loudly, and a huge flame blade extended from the dark-red broadsword in his hand. Then, he fiercely chopped down.
Bang!
The man in green clothes fell off the stage and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Wei Bin won and obtained a quota.
"With this person's strength, he has a high chance of entering the top ten."
Chen Yu speculated.
The top five had strength close to the Origin Realm, while the top ten had the strength of peak Xiantian Realm. Obviously, Wei Bin had met this requirement.
"I want to challenge the sixteenth rank!"
A slim woman in a purple robe stepped onto the stage.
However, this lady failed in the end.
Obviously, the opponent she chose had improved beyond her expectations.
After two battles, the battles became more intense. Almost every time someone was defeated, there would be another challenger.
But most of them won more than they lost.
"Let me test the strength of the top ten."
Situ Linyu slowly walked out of the Evil Spirit Academy and landed on the challenge stage.
As soon as these words were spoken, it caused an uproar.
Situ Linyu was only a new student in the past three years. Not only did he want to obtain a quota, he wanted to challenge the top ten!
