Chapter 27

On the stage, Zi Chen stood indifferently, facing Wei Ling who had a hideous grin on his face.

Below the stage, there were many inner sect disciples who had come to join in the fun. Hundreds of people had gathered. First of all, the bet of ten Zhen Qi Dans was very big, which had stimulated them.

Secondly, they also wanted to see the glory of the first person in the assessment.

There were a lot of talented people in the inner sect competition, but they were all suppressed by Zi Chen. Zi Chen was only at the fifth level of Zhen Qi, and he had comprehended the essence of a third-rate battle skill. He had even fused it with his battle skill, and he was able to fight against Wang Meng and Wu Sheng. Wu Sheng's talent was almost the same as Senior Brother Chen Feng's.

Although he did not enter the core, Zi Chen's reputation in the inner sect was very high, and his talent was comparable to the number one genius of the inner sect, Su Mengyao.

Everyone came with expectations, hoping that Zi Chen would create another glory, but this hope was not big, because many people guessed that Wei Ling, who was at the sixth level of Zhen Qi, had broken through again.

"Humph."

Below the stage, Wang Xiong and the others gathered together, looking at Zi Chen and sneering. The difference between seventh level and sixth level Zhen Qi was very big. Zi Chen was very strong, and could fight Wu Sheng, but he could not defeat Wei Ling, because Wei Ling had already comprehended a second-rate battle skill.

"I not only want your Zhen Qi Dans, but also your life." Wang Xiong's eyes flashed a cold light.

The battle had not yet begun, but there was a small disturbance in the crowd. Luo Men came from afar, and wherever he went, the inner sect disciples would make way for him.

"Brother Luo Men." Seeing Luo Men coming towards him, Wang Xiong's eyes lit up.

"Well, not bad." In the eyes of the crowd, Luo Men walked to Wang Xiong's side, and there was a touch of appreciation in his eyes.

Zi Chen did not give him face in front of everyone, so he naturally wanted to teach Zi Chen a lesson. It would be best if he could kill him. Now that Wang Xiong had come to deal with Zi Chen, Luo Men was very satisfied.

"Brother, you flatter me. This Zi Chen is simply a mad dog, and it is not good to teach him a lesson." Wang Xiong said, and the others also nodded.

"En, I heard that this brat actually wants to use eight True Qi Dans as a bet, he really doesn't know life from death. You should agree with him, isn't it just eight True Qi Dans?" Luo Men indifferently said.

"Yes, yes, Senior Brother Luo Men is right, but now it is already too late, but if Zi Chen dies, his other True Qi Dans will be Senior Brother Luo Men's."

Wang Xiong nodded his head repeatedly. However, he was secretly muttering in his heart. Luo Men was guarding a place with a lot of benefits. They were specially deducting the contribution points of others. Naturally, they were rich and overbearing. What were they? They were nothing.

"Mhm, let's watch the battle then." Luo Men nodded, extremely satisfied with Wang Xiong's answer. He then turned his gaze towards the battle platform.

On the battle stage, Wei Ling was already accumulating power, but Zi Chen didn't move at all. His eyes were calm.

"Brat, today, I'll let you know the difference between a little brat who just entered the Inner Sect and the rest of us."

Wei Ling sneered, and the aura around his body condensed. At the same time, streams of True Energy surrounded his body.

True Qi Level Seven, Wei Ling had indeed broken through.

Zi Chen wasn't surprised by this scene. Inner Sect disciples weren't stupid. If they didn't have the strength, how would they dare to be arrogant in front of Zi Chen? But at the same time, Zi Chen wasn't stupid. If he dared to make a bet, he naturally had the confidence to win.

Facing the Level Seven True Qi, Zi Chen didn't move, but an aura emerged from his body. The aura was like that of a fierce tiger, and the Ferocious Tiger Fist appeared.

"Hmph, a third-rate battle skill, the Ferocious Tiger Fist. Look at my second-rate battle skill, the Rolling Stone Fist."

Wei Ling sneered, and the Level Seven True Qi instantly surged. He then waved his fists and attacked Zi Chen.

The battle instantly began.

The wind from the fists rolled, and layers of True Qi were released. Fist shadows appeared like a huge rolling stone, appearing in front of Zi Chen.

The Rolling Stone Fist was a second-rate battle skill. It could be used for both offense and defense. The attack was like a rolling stone, getting bigger and bigger. The wind from the fists was impenetrable. If one couldn't suppress it in the early stages, one wouldn't be able to break it in the later stages.

"Good kid, you are crazy enough."

The wind from his fists had already appeared, and it had already reached a certain scale. Zi Chen still didn't move. Wei Ling let out a disdainful compliment. The wind from his fists changed again, and became denser and more concentrated, pressing towards Zi Chen.

On the battling platform, the wind was whistling, and an oppressive aura appeared.

"What is Zi Chen doing? Why isn't he attacking? Doesn't he know that if he doesn't suppress the Rolling Stone Fist in the early stages, he won't be able to suppress it in the later stages?"

"What the hell is Zi Chen doing?"

Below the battling platform, everyone was puzzled. Even Miao Kong frowned slightly, and Lin Xue was even more anxious.

"Hmph."

Just when the wind from the Rolling Stone Fist had reached a certain scale, Zi Chen snorted coldly. The aura around his body suddenly increased, and he was like an awakened tiger.

Level Six True Qi surrounded his body. His fists were clenched, and a popping sound could be heard. His blood and Qi were surging inside his body, making him look like a ferocious beast.

"Roar!"

The tiger's roar shook the forest, and the king's aura was fully displayed. The second style of the Ferocious Tiger Fist was thrown out smoothly, and it directly led to the third style. In an instant, Zi Chen seemed to have turned into a ferocious tiger, and he rushed into the rock-like wind from the fist.

He was going to meet force with force, and he was going to use strength to overcome strength.

"Boom!"

A loud explosion suddenly sounded, and the entire battling platform began to shake. The surrounding rocks fell, and cracks appeared on the ground.

Wei Ling could only feel a strong and ferocious force surging towards him from the opposite side, instantly breaking through his airtight fist wind and hitting his body. After that, his body flew backwards uncontrollably.

He flew out of the battling platform and landed on the ground with a bang.

One strike, complete defeat.

Zi Chen had won. He stood at the place where Wei Ling had stood before, and cracks spread out under his feet. His white robe fluttered because of the force, and his posture was extremely elegant. It was unknown how many people below were mesmerized.

Below the battling platform, there was a dead silence. Before the battle, they had thought of all kinds of predictions, but the result of each prediction was Zi Chen's defeat. However, the real result was far beyond their expectations.

Wei Ling, who was at Level Seven True Qi, was defeated in one strike.

"Level Six True Qi, Zi Chen broke through in just one night." After the silence, there was finally a cry of surprise.

They found that something was wrong. The moment Zi Chen attacked, he was like a ferocious beast.

"Impossible, he was only at Level Five True Qi the day before yesterday, and he wasn't even at the peak of True Qi. How did he suddenly break through today?" Wang Xiong's face was also filled with disbelief.

Why did he believe that Wei Ling could win? Naturally, he saw that Zi Chen had just broken through to Level Five True Qi. Even if he had a True Qi Dan, it was impossible for him to break through to Level Six True Qi in such a short time.

All of his calculations were based on Wang Xiong's many years of experience in refining True Qi Dans. However, he could not have predicted that Zi Chen's refining speed was measured in a quarter of an hour. Moreover, he had completely refined the True Qi Dan without wasting a single bit of energy.

Zi Chen stood on the battling platform, completely ignoring the defeated Wei Ling. He looked down at Wang Xiong, stretched out his hand, and indifferently said, "Hand it over."

"Pu."

Wei Ling was ignored, and was extremely ashamed. Finally, he was unable to suppress the churning blood in his chest. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, his head tilted and he actually fainted.

"Hand over what?" Wang Xiong asked even though he already knew the answer. Obviously, he was regretting it in his heart.

"What, do you want to go back on your word?"

Zi Chen's mouth had a trace of a sneer, and sarcastically said, "It's just five True Qi Dans. If you want to go back on your word, it doesn't matter. As long as you kneel on the ground and crawl around the battling platform like a dog, it will be fine."

"You!"

Beside Wang Xiong, everyone was furious, their eyes spitting fire. They wanted to tear Zi Chen to shreds, but they were all blocked by Wang Xiong.

"Good brat, you have guts." Wang Xiong sneered, and then took out a porcelain bottle from his bosom.

"Wang Xiong, don't tell me you …" Beside him, the others were stunned, and one of them opened his mouth to speak.

"If you agree to bet, you must accept defeat. A mere five True Qi Dans is nothing." Wang Xiong indifferently smiled, and the porcelain bottle in his hand was suddenly thrown towards Zi Chen.

Beside him, Luo Men's eyes had a trace of appreciation.

"Pa." Zi Chen easily caught it, and then opened it to take a look. The amount was just right.

"Hmph, at least you know how to behave." Zi Chen sneered, and directly walked towards the battling platform, no longer looking at Wang Xiong.

He left in a carefree manner.

"So handsome, Wang Xiong actually couldn't do anything to him." Some of the female disciples' eyes once again lit up.

But after seeing a beautiful figure catch up to Zi Chen, each and every one of them revealed an expression of envy and jealousy.

"Zi Chen, you are so powerful." Lin Xue praised, her eyes also shining.

"Thank you." Zi Chen chuckled.

"What are you going to do now?" Lin Xue asked.

"Go back to cultivate, otherwise I will be killed by others." Zi Chen said.

"Oh, increasing your strength is the most important." Lin Xue said.

Zi Chen looked at the somewhat disappointed Lin Xue, and asked, "Do you have something to say?"

"I want to see if I can exchange for a second-rate movement skill. I want you to accompany me." Lin Xue lowered her head, her eyes not daring to look at Zi Chen.

Zi Chen gently smiled, and said, "Today, no one should find trouble with me. Let's go, I will accompany you."

"But, you have time now." Lin Xue hesitated.

"Don't worry, I have my own arrangements."

Suddenly, Zi Chen seemed to have thought of something, and asked, "You just entered the inner sect, where did you get the contribution points?"

"Senior sister gave it to me." Lin Xue said.

Zi Chen was relieved, Su Mengyao's position in the inner sect was very high, so it was normal for her to have extra contribution points.

"Then let's go."

Passing through numerous pavilions, Zi Chen arrived at the place where he had comprehended contribution points the day before. However, he turned around and walked into the Martial Skill Pavilion.

The Martial Skill Pavilion was divided into three floors, the first floor was for third-rate, the second for second-rate, and the third for first-rate.

Among them, third-rate was the most common, and they were all placed in rows on the bookshelves.

Next to the Martial Skill Pavilion, there was a red-clothed old man sitting there. He was the Elder in charge of guarding the Martial Skill Pavilion, and he was also responsible for registering things.

The two went directly to the second floor, where there were many second-rate Martial Skills.

There were Star Burst Fist, Overlord Step, Mountain Splitting Palm, Rolling Stone Fist, Breaking Stone Palm, and so on. There were more than a hundred books.

Among them, there were Overlord Step, Frost Step, Burst Step, Cloud Step, and so on.

But after Lin Xue came in, she did not look at the second-rate Martial Skills, but at the Martial Skills. She already had the second-rate Martial Skill, Thousand Illusion Palm.
