This smile was so beautiful that it could cause a country to fall. Several disciples beside her were almost drooling.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Chen leaped into the air and steadily stood on the stage.
Opposite of him, that disciple's face was gloomy. He had thought that he could advance without fighting, but then the other party had directly appeared. His heart that had just been a pleasant surprise had suddenly calmed down. It was so cold that he had almost cried.
Chu Chen actually appeared at this time, but according to the rules, before the final result was announced, they could continue to duel.
"Do you want to continue the fight?" Chu Chen calmly asked, his meaning being, to see if the other party would choose to admit defeat.
After a few months of cultivating in the magma, he had completed 20% of the melting of his blood, refining almost all of the volcano's fire energy, and condensing nearly a hundred Profound Acupoints in his body.
Furthermore, he had even swallowed the fourth grade Spirit Pill Profound Aperture Pill, which was used to break through the Fifth Level of Spiritual Martial Stage.
Outside of that, Chu Chen was comprehending the sword technique imprint that was left behind in his head. He repeated cultivated the Slaughter Sword Technique until it was more suitable for use.
"Although you are very strong, I do not want to admit defeat." Hearing this, the disciple thought for a moment before replying.
"Alright, even if we lose, you are still worthy of everyone's admiration."
Chu Chen said directly, and did not say anymore. If the enemy did not admit defeat, then he had to use his full strength to respect him.
Chu Chen took a step forward, and a terrifying gale shot out from his body as he pushed forward with all his might.
This martial artist's face suddenly changed as a trace of fear shot out of his eyes. What a strong aura. It was like a mountain pressing down on one another.
As he circulated his Origin Energy, his heart sank. Under the pressure of this aura, he was unable to circulate even his Origin Energy.
When Chu Chen's step landed, the stage shook violently. Under the tyrannical impact, the disciple didn't even have the chance to attack, his body was immediately thrown off the stage.
"Oh my god, just with his aura alone he was able to send a martial artist of the first level of Spiritual Martial Stage flying. What realm did his cultivation reach?"
When Chu Chen made his move, it was undoubtedly because of the shock, and it caused everyone's pupils to constrict.
"This guy is so strong!"
Even the inner court disciples could no longer hold back their ridicule, and blurted out in shock.
Even if it was them, they wouldn't be able to send a first stage Spiritual Martial Stage martial practitioner flying with just their aura. Not only did this require a high level of cultivation, it also required a lot of soul force.
Previously, when Han Feng had gone up on stage and defeated another practitioner who was also at the first level of Spiritual Martial Stage in one move, everyone was already very shocked. They all thought that Han Feng was probably second only to Zuo Wudao in terms of strength, or maybe he could even fight with him.
However, on the scene, Chu Chen made a move.
Without even making a move, he took a step forward and his momentum surged like a wave, directly defeating his opponent and not giving him any chance to act.
"Stop pretending, just you wait. See how I'll defeat you later." Below the stage, Han Feng's eyes were cold, carrying a repressed killing intent.
Sensing that a wave of killing intent was staring straight at him, Chu Chen searched the crowd and met eyes with Han Feng. Their gazes met, and the smell of gunpowder exploded, filling the air with smoke.
The two of them did not speak, but their attitude clearly showed that a duel was unavoidable.
The way of the Martial Competition was to draw lots, but to enter the third round of the Ranking Tournament, it was because the losers would have the chance to compete for the Ranking Tournament.
In this way, the ten of them would all fight. With two people's cultivation, it was a foregone conclusion that they would meet.
After Chu Chen walked down from the stage, Fang Qu and the other two all surrounded him, one after another, asking about his cultivation level, with an excited expression on their faces.
"He should be able to enter the top ten." Chu Chen did not directly reveal it. With so many people present, directly saying that he was at the fourth level of Spiritual Martial Stage was too much of a publicity stunt, and he did not want to reveal too much either.
In the following matches, Lion Devil, Fang Qu, and Pang Shan, the three of them went up on stage one after another.
And the genius disciple of the outer courtyard, Su Yingxue, also appeared not long after. She was incomparably young, like an elf, and carried a cute, young girl aura on her body.
However, don't be fooled by her appearance. She is a very powerful martial artist, and her thoughts are not simple.
Chu Chen remembered clearly that in order to see his strength, Su Yingxue had instigated him to duel.
Although it looked more like a prank, he was not careless. Su Yingxue was definitely powerful, his talent was not weaker than Han Feng.
"My opponent, Zuo Wudao!" In the afternoon, someone finally spoke.
Everyone had been waiting for this name for a long time.
And compared to the crowd's anticipating eyes, the disciples who had hit Zuo Wudao were crying and trembling all over.
He was only at the ninth level of Bloody Martial Stage and had not even reached it yet, so how could he be a match for Zuo Wudao?
This abnormal person was first on the same level as Chu Chen, but Chu Chen was already so powerful, he was able to send his opponent flying just from relying on his aura alone.
Before the match even began, this disciple was certain that he would lose. The disparity was too great. If he were to make a move, he would only end up being beaten.
"Is Zuo Wudao going to make his move?" Chu Chen looked towards Stage Three, at the disciples spectating on the other seven stages, their gazes all swept over in an instant.
With Zuo Wudao appearing, the disciples from the other seven arenas that were watching the fight all shifted their gazes away. This made the disciples who were fighting, feel extremely depressed.
"This guy, he's been cultivating ever since he killed the Gold Devouring Profound Fire Beast. His cultivation must have increased by another huge amount." Lion Devil said, his eyes revealing a trace of seriousness.
It was fine that Zuo Wudao was strong, but he was too mysterious and did not know what kind of trump card he had. Even his methods were something that no one knew.
"It has already been half a year since I entered the Blood Purgatory. My cultivation has reached the fourth level of the Spiritual Martial Stage, so he should have made some breakthroughs." Chu Chen thought.
In the Allied Trade Association, because they had just experienced a hundred life and death battles, their bodies had been destroyed, and they had been reborn through nirvanic rebirth, achieving a breakthrough in their cultivation.
After that, he cultivated in the lava of the volcano for a few months, completely melting twenty percent of the blood in his body and consuming the Profound Aperture Pill. Thus, his cultivation broke through once again and reached the Fifth Level of Spiritual Martial Stage.
It seemed as if his consecutive breakthroughs were very fast, but in reality, breaking through two realms in half a year's time wasn't too heaven defying. This speed, forget about other places, there were many people who could achieve it even in Meteorite Academy.
"As for Zuo Wudao, he should not be weaker than me. He is ranked first alongside me, so he should have obtained a fourth rank Spirit Pill.
"The only thing I don't know is what his current cultivation level is. Will he be higher than me?" Chu Chen asked himself.
Next, it was his turn to fight.
"I admit defeat." Facing Zuo Wudao, the disciple revealed a wry smile.
To choose not to admit defeat was not because he was too cowardly, but the difference in cultivation was too great. If he were to fight, it would be meaningless.
Facing the powerful Zuo Wudao, he actually admitted defeat. This was also the only battle that had progressed since the start of the Martial Competition.
The crowd was slightly surprised, but after some thought, they felt that what they had done was the right decision.
Knowing full well that he would be at a disadvantage if he were to lose, he might even be injured. This wouldn't be worth it. In front of strong strength, admitting defeat wouldn't be a disgrace.
"Unfortunately, I can't see Zuo Wudao's true strength." The spectators sighed, this was the only regret, although Zuo Wudao would make his move in the end, a majority of them could not wait.
In next to no time, the Martial Competition on the first day had ended.
Because there were disciples who did not come, or perhaps because some things happened in the past year and were lost in the outside world, a total of six hundred people participated in the competition.
And after the first day of the duel, only half of them advanced, which was about 300 people.
These three hundred people would determine the top one hundred on the second day.
