Pill God Returns

After the first round of preliminaries, most of the people were eliminated, so the second round of preliminaries had relatively sufficient time, and the number of matches that could be fought in the morning also increased from two in the first round to six.    

    

Wu Chen had fought six matches in the morning, and he had won all of them. This result was probably something that had never been seen before, except for Spirit Sea Stage warriors.    

    

"No one can stop Wu Chen's rise. Even Ma Hong, who is ranked 97th, won't be as dazzling as him."    

    

"Now, other than Spirit Sea Stage warriors, his result is the most dazzling. The others had more or less lost a battle. Only he has been winning continuously. If this continues... It was entirely possible for him to make it to the next round."    

    

"In my opinion, there must be a battle between Ma Hong and this man. No matter who wins or loses, it will determine who will advance to the top one hundred."    

    

"Let's wait and see."    

    

After a short break in the afternoon, the Hidden Dragon Competition selection continued in the afternoon.    

    

In the first round of the afternoon, Wu Chen's opponent was a peak late Spirit Rotation Stage expert, and the Gold Ranking was ranked two hundred and eighty-fifth. However, it was out of everyone's expectations, and the opponent automatically admitted defeat.    

    

Not even Zhao Ji was a match for Wu Chen, let alone someone like him who was ranked one hundred or so places behind Zhao Ji. Even if he continued to fight, it would still be a strenuous and unrewarding task.    

    

"Even a peak late Spirit Rotation Stage expert admitted defeat. This man's strength is really terrifying."    

    

"A expert at the Ninth Empyrean of Spirit Rotation Stage, asking a Peak Of the Ninth Empyrean of Spirit Rotation Stage expert to admit defeat. If this news gets out, it will definitely cause a sensation."    

    

"Even if he loses in the end, he won't be able to advance. That's enough for him to be proud of himself."    

    

On the other side, on the contestants' seats, everyone was frowning. They could see a great threat from Wu Chen. Especially those below the Spirit Sea Stage, they were facing a formidable enemy. They knew that... Wu Chen was their biggest obstacle in breaking through to the next realm.    

    

"Brother Hong, this man is your biggest rival."    

    

A man in blood-red clothes was sitting in the front seat. His eyes were fixed on Wu Chen, and a strong desire to fight rose in his heart. He was Ma Hong, the ninety-seventh expert of the Gold Ranking.    

    

"I will defeat him."    

    

No one could stop him from advancing. He would defeat all his opponents with his fists.    

    

In the second match, Wu Chen met an opponent who was at the Ninth Empyrean of Spirit Rotation Stage. Without any doubt, his opponent had admitted defeat. Even a Peak Of the Ninth Empyrean of Spirit Rotation Stage warrior had admitted defeat, let alone him.    

    

In the third match in the afternoon, under the anticipation of the crowd, Wu Chen and Ma Hong finally met.    

    

"Finally, we have met."    

    

"I heard that this Ma Hong had once broken through to the Spirit Sea Stage. I wonder if this is true?"    

    

"Yes, he did break through to the Spirit Sea Stage, but he failed."    

    

"However, although Ma Hong failed, his strength is still far greater than many others. He is one of the strongest people below the Spirit Sea Stage."    

    

"That's right. Judging from his previous battle record, Ma Hong lost once. However, he wasn't blamed for that, because he had encountered a Spirit Sea Stage expert. Although the gap between a Peak Of the Ninth Empyrean of Spirit Rotation Stage and a Spirit Sea Stage was only half a step, the gap between them was like a heavenly chasm. No one can surpass it."    

    

"No matter who wins or loses, it will determine who will advance in the end."    

    

Everyone's gaze gathered on the martial arena. It could be said that they had been looking forward to this match for a long time.    

    

This would definitely be a fierce battle between dragons and tigers.    

    

"I'm very surprised that you're able to reach this stage."    

    

Standing on the fighting stage, Ma Hong faced Wu Chen for the first time. This was the first time Ma Hong had reached this stage. None of them had expected this, but this was the end of his opponent's steps. Because this time, the opponent was him, the one who was ranked in the top 100 of the Gold Ranking.    

    

Wu Chen said faintly, "Perhaps there are still some things that will surprise you."    

    

He had never taken a person who failed to break through to the Spirit Sea Stage seriously. And so far, the strength he had used... And in the preliminaries... There was no one who could make him use his full strength.    

    

" Oh?" Ma Hong lowered his eyes and said, "Could it be that you still want to defeat me and advance into the top 100?"    

    

"Why not?"    

    

Ma Hong's facial expression changed, and he flew into a rage. "Arrogant! Don't think that you can act lawlessly just because you defeated that Zhao Ji! Now, I'll let you see what the means of the geniuses of capital are!"    

    

Ma Hong was a disciple of the Xi Yang City. He had been cultivating the Martial Arts ever since he was young, and his strength was extremely powerful. He was not an existence that an ordinary person could fight against.    

    

"Ma Hong is infuriated. The consequences will be very dreadful."    

    

Everyone's facial expression changed. Ma Hong was one of the strongest men under the Spirit Sea Stage. His strength was terrifying, and no one under the Spirit Sea Stage could match him.    

    

"Brat, take my punch first."    

    

Ma Hong clenched his fist, and a violent force erupted in an instant. It swept across like a flood, and the powerful force shook the surrounding space, as if it couldn't withstand it.    

    

Glancing at Wu Chen, Ma Hong threw out a punch. The powerful force rushed towards Wu Chen like a storm, wanting to kill him.    

    

Wu Chen smiled faintly. He was just a man who failed to break through to the Spirit Sea Stage. What did he have to fear?    

    

"Heaven Slaughtering Style."    

    

With a loud shout, Wu Chen struck out with the Heaven Slaughtering Style. The powerful Heaven Slaughtering Style carried a force that could destroy everything as it rushed forward and collided with Ma Hong's Fist Force.    

    

* Hong! *    

    

The two of them collided, and a violent force erupted from the collision, sweeping in all directions.    

    

"Shadow Splitting Technique."    

    

Wu Chen's body turned into a void after he struck out his attack. Countless shadows burst out from his body. In an instant, countless Wu Chen appeared on the fighting stage. Those Wu Chen were flying towards Ma Hong from all directions.    

    

"Is this the same move again?"    

    

Ma Hong wasn't unfamiliar with this move, because he had used it before when he was fighting Zhao Ji.    

    

However, he disdained this move. In his opinion, this move was like a flowery fist and embroidered leg. Although it looked pretty, it didn't have much power and wasn't worth mentioning.    

    

"Break for me."    

    

Ma Hong shouted out loudly. His Dantian began to churn. A powerful force surged into his fists, intending to destroy all of Wu Chen's illusions.    

    

"Bang!"    

    

Suddenly, his facial expression changed, because he saw a huge fist carrying a ferocious force rushing towards him at an incredible speed.    

    

"Crap, it's too late."    

    

Ma Hong had a bad feeling. He had never expected Wu Chen's attack to be so fast. He had just reacted when Wu Chen's attack had already arrived.
