Everyone's gazes landed on Yang Zhong. Among those present, Yang Zhong was the only one who was on par with Su Zhe and Qin Shi.
"I've come from afar. Since everyone is so happy today, let's have a battle to liven things up. I think this brother named Yang Zhong is not bad. Why? Do you have the guts to compete with me, Long Chen? Let me see the standard of the Yang Clan's disciples. Are they as bad as I imagined?"
Since the other party wanted to do this, Long Chen's words wouldn't give them any face. Each sentence was more unpleasant than the previous one.
When the disciples heard this, they were enraged. Yang Zhong was even angrier. From the moment he saw Long Chen, he wanted to beat Long Chen up. He didn't expect that Long Chen would actually come looking for him. Heaven was really helping him. Yang Zhong immediately roared, "If you are a man, then follow me to the outside of Changli Palace Hall. If I don't beat your intestines out today, then my name isn't Yang Zhong."
Yang Zhong's words stirred the crowd.
"He's just at the fourth level of the Divine Martial Realm. He hasn't even passed the Minor Three Tribulations. What qualifications does he have to compete with our genius disciples?"
"I think he's here to embarrass himself."
"This kind of trash doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Only by beating him up will he be obvious. Big Brother Yang Zhong, I'll beat him up too. I'm getting angry just by looking at him."
For a moment, Changli Palace was in an uproar.
Moreover, the elders of the Yang Clan didn't stop them. In fact, even Yang Dingtian wanted to try and guess Long Chen's identity from Long Chen's actions. He didn't see how Long Chen defeated Qin Shi and Su Zhe.
A group of people headed out of Changli Palace in a grandiose manner. Yang Dingtian and the rest exchanged glances and smiled knowingly, as though their plan had succeeded.
"This kid really knows how to slap people's faces. The three of us have never been humiliated like today." Yang Dingtian said with a smile.
"Motherf * cker, if he wasn't from the True Martial Emperor Palace, I would've beaten him up." Yang Batian said coldly.
"Do you guys think Yang Zhong has a chance of winning?" Yang Motian, who had been silent at the side, asked.
"Of course, Yang Zhong is a disciple that I have personally taught. His cultivation is not bad, and he is expected to break through to the ninth level of the Divine Martial Arts Realm in the future and become the pillar of my family. That boy named Long Chen, who has the Mysterious Yin Devil Body, is only at the fourth level of the Divine Martial Arts Realm," Yang Batian said.
"Not necessarily. Let's just wait and see. After all, he did defeat Su Zhe and Qin Shi. I just don't know how he did it. With his background, it's normal for him to have some life-saving means," Yang Dingtian said calmly.
As they spoke, they walked out of Long Chen Hall. Below them, Long Chen and Yang Zhong were already facing each other in the encirclement of the disciples. Han Yunxing and Nangong Lie were not far from Long Chen. Of course, they admired Long Chen. Since Long Chen had issued a challenge, there was no reason for him to lose.
It was just another slap in Yang Dingtian's face.
At this time, Yang Dingtian came out, and everyone looked at him. The real battle had to wait for Yang Dingtian to start. Yang Dingtian was not as angry as everyone thought he would be. He smiled and said, "Anyway, you have the blood of the Yang family in you, so you can be considered as members of the Yang family. This is a fight between disciples of the Yang family. You two should control your strength well, otherwise, I won't be polite."
Everyone was a little uncomfortable when they heard this. Long Chen was not a disciple of the Yang family at all.
Yang Dingtian was afraid of Long Chen's background. If he did not fight Long Chen, the disciples of the Yang family would fight him.
Of course, this was Yang Dingtian's purpose.
After Long Chen's words, Yang Zhong had long been blinded by hatred. At this time, it could be said that he carried the anger of too many people. He had to beat Long Chen hard so that everyone would feel comfortable. With so many people's hopes on his back, Yang Zhong did not feel any pressure. Instead, he was already burning with anger.
Everyone dispersed, leaving enough space for Long Chen and Yang Zhong to fight.
* Huff … *
Black smoke rose from Yang Zhong's body. This smoke condensed the phantom of the Dragon Sacrificial Continent behind him. Most of it was blurry, and the three Emperor Domains seemed to be just a small part of it.
When the Earthly Dharma Idol appeared, the will of the world descended on Yang Zhong's body, making him look like a giant between heaven and earth. Some martial artists whose cultivation had not reached the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm felt an incomparably huge pressure. They retreated one after another and operated their Divine Origin to resist this terrifying will power.
In their eyes, Long Chen, who bore the brunt of this will power, should be stunned by this will power, and there would be no need for him to fight. However, to their surprise, not only did Long Chen not retreat, but he also had a relaxed smile on his face. His aura instantly changed from weak to disdainful.
The invincible will of the dragon was not much weaker than the power of Yang Zhong's fusion with the will of the world. The pressure of the God Martial Soul had no effect on Long Chen.
At the same time, an incomparably domineering Scarlet Blood Desolation appeared in Long Chen's hand.
The sharp halberd was pointed at Yang Zhong, and Long Chen's eyes were full of contempt.
"I only need one move to finish you off."
Immediately after, Long Chen said something that made everyone feel that he was simply insanely arrogant.
Yang Zhong roared. His blood was once again ignited by Long Chen's words.
Looking at Long Chen's weapon, Yang Dingtian and the others frowned.
"It's definitely a weapon that surpasses the eighth-grade Divine Grade."
"What kind of status does this kid have in the Emperor Palace? He's able to wield a weapon of this level at such a young age …"
The three overlords of the Yang Family were a little shocked at this moment.
At this moment, Yang Zhong couldn't bear it anymore, and the battle was about to start.
"Heaven and Earth Demonic Formation, Infinite Strangulation."
He threw out a punch, which turned out to be a complex black formation, which instantly hovered above Long Chen. In an instant, countless black airflows gushed down and turned into cold venomous snakes, which densely packed and dashed towards Long Chen.
The Will of Heaven and Earth was contained in this attack. Generally, martial artists below the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm would definitely be defeated by such an attack.
But for Long Chen, it was simply a piece of cake.
"Using this level of attack to deal with me."
With a chuckle, Long Chen moved his feet, and with a speed that was equivalent to that of a martial artist at the eighth level of the Divine Martial Realm, he instantly escaped from his opponent's Heaven-earth Demon Formation.
To deal with Yang Zhong, he had to end the battle quickly, so that he could take the disciples of the Yang Family down a notch. Long Chen was already looking forward to seeing their dull eyes. At this moment, Long Chen, who had just escaped from Yang Zhong's Heaven-earth Demon Formation, raised the Scarlet Blood Desolation high in the air. He had just studied the third level of the Nine Dragons Scripture for a whole night, and at this moment, he displayed it without hesitation.
"Mysterious Blue Fire Dragon." A blue dragon shadow, burning with towering flames, appeared on Long Chen's body.
"Ice Armor Azure Sea Dragon."
A blue dragon shadow shrouded in a blue icy mist swirled together with the Mysterious Sky Jadefire Dragon.
"Nine Heavens Wind Dragon."
Finally, a green dragon silhouette appeared behind Long Chen, shrouded in formless gales. It was impossible to see it at all.
The Scarlet Blood Desolation, which was condensed with the power of three divine dragons, suddenly slashed down.
The power of the divine dragons converged in the third level of the Nine Dragons Scripture, and a terrifying power suddenly burst out, instantly exceeding the limit that a martial artist who had just entered the seventh level of the Divine Martial Realm could display. Moreover, in the third level of the Nine Dragons Scripture, there was another new thing, and that was Long Chen's Will of Dragon.
The Will of Dragon, combined with the Nine Dragons Scripture, created a double attack of physical and will power, which was the most powerful move that Long Chen had ever displayed.
"How is this possible?"
It could be said that Yang Zhong was petrified. His first move was a killing move, and it was so terrifying. When he saw the unavoidable halberd and the attacks of the three divine dragons coming towards him, the only thing he could do was to use his strongest move as well. However, under the third stage of the Nine Dragons Scripture, although his moves were similar to those of Su Zhe and the others, they were instantly destroyed by the Nine Dragons Scripture.
"No!" Yang Zhong screamed in pain, stunned.
At the last moment, Long Chen reversed the halberd, and the power of the Nine Dragons Scripture shifted, directly destroying a hall that was the size of one of the three people from Changli Hall. It turned into smoke and dust, and fell to the ground with a rumble.
At this moment, the Scarlet Blood Desolation was only ten centimeters away from the tip of Yang Zhong's nose.
Long Chen retrieved the Scarlet Blood Eternal Desolation. He had not expected that he would be able to execute the third tier so soon. As his strength increased, so did the might of the Nine Dragons Scripture. Although it was only the third tier, when executed, even an ordinary grade eight Divine Skill would not be able to block it.
From the start to the end of the battle, it took less than ten breaths of time.
When Long Chen put away the Scarlet Blood Desolation Sword, everyone was still looking at the stunned and pale Yang Zhong. Their minds went blank.
"Thank you for letting me win, genius of the Yang Clan."
Long Chen chuckled and waved at Han Yunxing and Nangong Lie. In a short time, the three of them disappeared from the crowd's sight, returning to the Wisteria Park.
After they left, there was an uproar among the crowd.
The expression on everyone's face could only be described as twisted.
"This … I must have seen wrongly just now."
"Am I dreaming?"
"How can this Long Chen be so strong?"
Originally, they wanted to beat up Long Chen to vent their anger, but Long Chen had used a tyrannical method to defeat Yang Zhong in an instant, so they did not dare to vent their anger.
For a moment, everyone felt as though they had been struck by lightning.
Yang Zhong, who was in the crowd, collapsed to the ground with his hands powerlessly. Then, he knelt on the ground with a miserable expression.
Just now, he was indeed at the brink of death.
Yang Dingtian and the other two looked at Long Chen's disappearing figure with gloomy eyes.
"Such a terrifying combat skill is obviously not simple. It might even be higher than eighth grade. Who exactly is this Long Chen's father?" Yang Dingtian's mind was in a mess.
The two people beside him were also shocked, asking the same question.
