Lu Junyue was indeed Long Chen's greatest opponent in this battle. She also possessed a tribulation treasure like the Nine Spirit Golden Elephant Seal. While everyone thought that Long Chen and Lu Junyue were the two strongest opponents, they forgot about Feng Zhilin.
Long Chen knew very well that Lu Junyue wouldn't be Feng Zhilin's match without the Nine Spirit Golden Elephant Seal.
It was terrifying because this woman had learned how to endure.
If the person Long Chen wanted to kill the most was Lu Junyue, the person he feared the most was Feng Zhilin.
Even if Feng Zhilin didn't have the Nine Spirit Golden Elephant Seal, Long Chen still felt that she was more terrifying.
Moreover, he had more entanglements with Feng Zhilin.
She was usually arrogant and despotic. She was originally a young lady from a wealthy family, but after arriving at the True Martial Emperor Palace, she grew at an astonishing rate without the protection of her clan. Her temperament had matured even more.
Regardless, the day passed just like that.
For the battle on the second to last day, many people were so excited that they could not wait for tomorrow to arrive. This was especially so for the disciples of the Evil Dragon Palace and the Heavenly God Hall.
Long Chen was the pride of all the Evil Dragon Hall disciples.
On this day, everyone stood guard outside the River Heart Pavilion, silently cheering for Long Chen.
On the Sky God Hall's side, Lu Junyue was also ready.
The next day, Long Chen arrived at the Hidden Dragon Platform surrounded by the disciples of the Evil Dragon Hall. The Hidden Dragon Battle Stele that seemed to be randomly chosen finally ushered in the most intense and suspenseful battle of the Hidden Dragon Ranking Tournament.
The first three battles were somewhat ordinary. No matter how hard the three warriors at the Seventh Lv of the Divine Martial Arts Realm fought, and no matter how fierce their battles were, there was nothing special about their battles.
Who was Long Chen's opponent today?
Everyone held their breaths as they watched the announcement of the third opponent on the Hidden Dragon Battle Stele. This time, it was Feng Zhilin against Yan Qingchen.
Yan Qingchen naturally wasn't Feng Zhilin's match. Hence, he chose to concede after a while. Feng Zhilin didn't make things difficult for him either. She quietly returned to the Wind God Hall and didn't say a word for the rest of her life.
Next, the Crouching Dragon Platform erupted.
Countless people started to yell. They had to yell because there were only two people who had not fought yet. It was the second last day of the Hidden Dragon Rank battles.
These two people were Long Chen and Lu Junyue.
The Heavenly God Hall's disciples were generally stronger than the Evil Dragon Palace's disciples. They were extremely loud. As they shouted, Lu Junyue's name drowned out all the other Evil Dragon Palace disciples' shouts.
The truly exciting moment had finally arrived.
Lu Junyue, who was surrounded by countless experts, had a faint smile on his face as he walked towards the Hidden Dragon Battlefield. He was the first to land on the Hidden Dragon Battlefield. His calm expression wasn't the least bit affected by the cheers from the outside world.
His calmness made everyone secretly admire him.
Long Chen had never met an opponent since the start of the points battle. However, from the way he easily defeated Ji Liuai, he was definitely very strong. Moreover, the hatred between the two of them was not ordinary.
Everyone was looking forward to this battle.
"Lu Junyue will definitely win."
"Senior Brother Lu is invincible. He's the strongest of the three thousand palaces' younger generation. The Evil Dragon Palace Master can go eat shit."
Outside, the surging voices boomed out, showing how many disciples of the Heavenly God Hall were and how arrogant they were. At this moment, they all stood up and looked in Long Chen's direction with disdain. The Evil Dragon Palace disciples did not have the aura to compete with them.
However, when that youth stood up, the disciples of the Heavenly God Hall shut their mouths.
That was because Long Chen's body emitted a faintly discernible and strange aura that made them involuntarily apprehensive. This kind of aura was something that Lu Junyue didn't have.
In terms of aura, Lu Junyue was very pitiful compared to Long Chen.
Seeing so many disciples of the Heavenly God Hall frightened by Long Chen standing up, Lu Junyue's expression became somewhat unsightly. This was not a good sign.
This made him hate Long Chen even more.
He remembered that when he first met Long Chen, Long Chen did not have this kind of might.
Lu Junyue had always considered himself to be the most talented disciple of the three thousand palaces. Recently, Long Chen had stolen all the limelight from him.
At this moment, the indifferent Long Chen descended on the Hidden Dragon Battlefield amidst the absolute silence. He landed a hundred meters in front of Lu Junyue and stood there casually.
Seeing that it was about time, Yang Wang did his best to exaggerate the two before announcing the start of the battle.
Everyone was watching intently. The entire place was silent.
It was like the calm before a storm, incomparably calm.
The smell of gunpowder in the two's hearts gradually rose.
Lu Junyue was not in a rush to fight. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time, so he wanted to enjoy it properly. At this moment, he looked at Long Chen with disdain. He smiled faintly and said, "Yan Qingchen must be in a lot of pain. Although he was lucky to recover the Blood Refinement Scripture, given his performance in the Hidden Dragon Ranking, it seems like it will be very difficult for him to enter the Martial God Palace."
Long Chen did not say anything. He just looked at Lu Junyue quietly.
This kind of silence made Lu Junyue's heart go numb.
Lu Junyue continued smiling and said, "There are some things that might anger you. However, so what? I, Lu Junyue, am the son of the Heavenly Deity Hall's Hall Master and the nephew of the Supreme Elder. I have a cousin in the Martial God Palace. As for you, Long Chen, who are you? You have no parents, you are a bastard."
Lu Junyue said these words to infuriate Long Chen.
Lu Junyue understood the logic of battle. Calmness was the best way. If he could make Long Chen lose his rationality first, his chances of victory would be very high.
Lu Junyue was also a proud person. Hence, he did not admit that he needed the Nine Spirit Golden Elephant Seal to defeat Long Chen. He would not use it unless he was on the verge of defeat.
However, he was disappointed. Long Chen was still scarily quiet.
Lu Junyue thought that the bastard would make Long Chen lose his rationality.
If that didn't work, then it seemed like he had to release a huge bomb.
Lu Junyue condensed his voice and transmitted it to Long Chen's ears. He said, "Tsk tsk, a few days ago, a certain person was very pitiful. In order to send me into the Extreme Purple Heavenly Fire Formation for ten years, he said a lot. Unfortunately, the Punishment Hall belongs to my Lu Clan. With the Second Supreme Elder there, why would I need to go to the Extreme Purple Heavenly Fire Formation?"
He thought that this would make Long Chen even angrier.
After all, Long Chen had gone to great lengths to send him into the Extreme Purple Heavenly Fire Formation for ten years.
However, he thought too much. Long Chen had never intended to send him into the Extreme Purple Heavenly Fire Formation.
"If you're done talking, then let's do it," Long Chen said indifferently.
"Eh."
Lu Junyue was speechless. He realized that he had underestimated Long Chen. Since this kind of provocative method didn't work, then he could only use strength.
Lu Junyue had already made sufficient preparations.
He stretched out his hand, and the power of the world slowly gathered on his body. He rose into the air, and the white light made him look like a god from the heavens.
In that instant, Lu Junyue was incomparably flirtatious. Countless female disciples screamed at his image. A man from the Sky God Hall using the power of the world of light was really too damn cool.
Lu Junyue had heard such praises many times.
After the battle, Long Chen's eyes gradually turned blood-red. A murderous aura gradually filled the entire Hidden Dragon Platform. Even without Lu Junyue's provocation, Long Chen could already enter a frenzied state of battle.
On his cheeks, a few blood-red dragon scales appeared.
This appearance made him look abnormally ferocious.
The current Long Chen was actually covered in incomparably tough dragon scales at all times. It was just that they were hidden.
Hiss …
The sound of air currents reverberated around Long Chen's body.
When the real battle began, everyone was even more excited. They would be able to see their battle soon. This was the most anticipated battle of the Hidden Dragon Rankings so far.
Rumble.
The battle between the two erupted at the first instant.
"You want to fight with me, Lu Junyue? Why don't you take a look at what you look like? My mother was right, you're a lowly bastard. If you hadn't angered me, someone like you wouldn't even have the qualifications to fight with me, Lu Junyue.
Lu Junyue laughed crazily. The anger he had suppressed in his heart because he couldn't kill Long Chen completely erupted. Long Chen hadn't lost his cool, but he had.
As for his previous calmness, it was all an act.
Facing Long Chen, he couldn't calm down at all when he thought of the hundred days of Extreme Violet Heavenly Fire Formation.
"You should die until nothing is left."
Lu Junyue laughed loudly. The power of the world of light surrounded him, completely enveloping him in a white light. That dazzling light almost covered half of the Hidden Dragon Battlefield. Many people didn't dare to look at Lu Junyue directly, or they would be blinded by the power of the world of light.
And Long Chen was the first among them.
Everyone let out cries of surprise. Lu Junyue seemed to have become stronger today.
In reality, in order to defeat Long Chen, Lu Junyue had just consumed a pill that could temporarily increase his divine energy. Now, he could use it all at once.
Everyone was somewhat hesitant. It looked like Lu Junyue would still win today. After all, the Heavenly God Hall's foundation was too deep.
"Radiant Ceremony, Illuminate the Nine Provinces!"
Lu Junyue let out an explosive sound. This Radiant Grand Ceremony was actually a set of fist techniques. When Lu Junyue used it, his entire body was enveloped in white light. As he danced, countless rays of white light condensed on his arm, causing his arm to instantly expand by three times. A terrifying power was infused into his arm, and the white light condensed into an arm covered in runes. As Lu Junyue let out an explosive roar, his fist shook the heavens and earth as it shot towards Long Chen.
For a moment, even the air outside buzzed.
In the face of this shocking pressure, the corners of Long Chen's mouth curled into a slight smile. Some people just liked this kind of flashy but impractical move.
Long Chen circulated his own power and added a small portion of Nirvana Energy. His muscles tensed up, and his current physical body surpassed that of an ordinary ninth-grade body-refining technique. The power of the Ancestral Dragon Physique gathered together. When Long Chen punched, a golden lightning dragon erupted from his arm and coiled around his right fist. With a buzzing sound, the might of a dragon descended.
