Although he was confident, Long Chen didn't dare to be careless. After all, Bi Yang Imperial City couldn't be compared to Origin Spirit City. Long Chen was the most absolute genius in Origin Spirit City, but after coming to Bi Yang Imperial City, with his current cultivation of the second level of the Heavenly River Tier, he could only be considered average. Any random person from Prince Yu's Residence would be about the same as him.
In this battle, Long Chen used Xiao Lang's life as a wager. He had to win. Of course, he dared to boast because he was confident.
Under everyone's expectant gazes, the battle officially began.
It was just the beginning, and Yu Chong and Long Chen had both completed their transformations. Facing an opponent with a cultivation level higher than his, and a battle that he had to win, Long Chen didn't dare to have the slightest bit of carelessness, and immediately displayed his strongest side.
And Yu Chong had completed his beast spirit transformation.
It could be seen that his Earth-ranked Source Demonic Beast was also a Demonic Wolf. At this time, the muscles all over his body had grown, and his height had also increased. Sharp silver fur had sprouted from his body, and claws as sharp as blades had pierced out from his fingertips, carrying a blood-red edge.
His height extended from both sides to more than three meters, and Yu Chong turned into a hunched giant. Looking at Long Chen, who had transformed into a tiny dot, Yu Chong was much more majestic than Long Chen in terms of aura alone.
"This is an Earth-grade Silver-Moon Demon Wolf, and this is your Earth-grade Source Beast Spirit. What beast spirit is this, and what grade is it? Looking at it, could it be a lizard?"
After Yu Chong finished speaking, he laughed loudly. In his opinion, a country bumpkin was a country bumpkin. Even if it was an Source Beast Spirit, it couldn't be taken out.
The members of the Heavenly Wolf Gang who heard Yu Chong's words also roared with laughter.
The Ninth Prince didn't laugh, because he was also very concerned about the problem of Long Chen's beast spirit.
He knew that Long Chen had been using this beast spirit since the Dragon Vein Tier, but strangely, it seemed that this beast spirit was still very powerful. In the Ninth Prince's opinion, Long Chen was somewhat mysterious, and this was one of the mysteries of Long Chen.
He wanted to end the battle as quickly as he could.
This was Long Chen's goal.
"Be careful."
Long Chen said faintly as he dashed forward. His speed was like a phantom, and in an instant, a whirlwind was formed. Yu Chong was still mocking Long Chen. However, when he saw Long Chen's speed, his eyes flashed coldly.
As he charged forward, the Blue Dragon Halberd appeared in Long Chen's hand. Without saying a word, Long Chen brandished the Blue Dragon Halberd and charged at Yu Chong frantically. The sharp edge of the halberd left afterimages around him.
"Trying to snatch a woman from His Highness, you really don't know what's good for you."
Yu Chong licked his lips and the beast spirit qi on his body burst out. A wolf tattoo appeared on his body, followed by a threatening murderous aura.
His heel stomped on the ground, and his whole body shot towards Long Chen like a cannonball as he slashed out with his claw.
The ground shook from his stomp.
"Go to hell! Tearing Heaven and Earth, Tearing Heaven Claw!"
The light and shadow changed, and the light of a claw pressed towards Long Chen at high speed. One look and you could tell that it was not a simple combat skill. It was at least at the elementary level of the Earth class.
"Blue Dragon Combat Technique, Dragon Battles the Star Field."
As soon as the move was used, the afterimages of the halberd clashed with Yu Chong's claw. As they clashed again and again, there was a sharp sound of friction. Yu Chong's claw was harder than Long Chen had imagined. After clashing with the Blue Dragon Halberd several times, he was not injured at all. However, the two were evenly matched, and in the end, the other party was sent flying.
Boom, boom, boom.
After retreating over a dozen steps, the two of them finally stopped, looking like they were evenly matched. It was not surprising that Long Chen had retreated so much, but Yu Chong was also in such a sorry state, which made the members of the Heaven Wolf Gang feel a little puzzled. At this moment, Yu Tao scolded, "Brat, did you not eat lunch? Or did you spend all your energy on a woman's belly last night? Why do you only have so little energy? If you embarrass His Highness, I'll definitely skin you alive."
Yu Chong felt very wronged. He was sure that he had used his full strength, but still could not deal with Long Chen. He was also very puzzled about this. Long Chen was obviously at the second level of the Heavenly River Tier, so why did he have the power of the third level of the Heavenly River Tier? Moreover, in terms of pure strength, Yu Chong was at the highest level of the third level of the Heavenly River Tier, so why was it that Long Chen could match him?
'Motherf * cker, I don't believe this. I'll kill you in one move, lest the night is fraught with trouble.'
Thinking of this, a cold glint flashed in Yu Chong's eyes. His body was like a phantom, charging towards Long Chen again. At this time, Long Chen had just recovered from the previous attack.
"Demonic Wolf Secret Technique, Silver Moon Slash."
In an instant, Yu Chong's huge body suddenly turned into a huge saber light, charging towards Long Chen. This saber light had a terrifyingly sharp aura. Indistinctly, the faces of countless demonic wolves appeared in this saber light, making the power of this saber light even greater.
"Nine Spins Fire Shield."
This time, Long Chen did not choose to clash head-on with him. Instead, he used the Nine Spins Fire Shield. Compared to the time when he was fighting against Emperor Yuan, Long Chen had a much easier time using the Nine Spins Fire Shield this time. Previously, he could only use the sixth spin, but after this period of training and pondering, he could already use the complete state of the Nine Spins Fire Shield.
In the continent, offensive battle techniques were as common as dogs, but there were not many defensive battle techniques. Moreover, every defensive battle technique was of the finest quality, and this Nine Spins Fire Shield was even more so. It was an Earth-rank mid-level defensive battle technique. Through the frenzied spinning flame vortex, it could divert a large portion of the attack in all directions.
Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, the Silver Moon Slash and the Nine Spins Fire Shield collided with a loud bang. The spinning of the flames created a whistling sound of wind, and bursts of true energy spread out, causing the surrounding smoke and dust to scatter in all directions.
"Time's up." Long Chen's eyes flickered.
Although the pressure coming from the Nine Spins Fire Shield was great, it couldn't be broken at all. Long Chen was still confident about this. However, with the Nine Spins Fire Shield between them, it didn't seem easy for Long Chen to injure Yu Chong. But this didn't mean that Long Chen didn't have any ideas.
"It's time to try this move."
After thinking of this, Long Chen smiled when he sensed that Yu Chong wanted to break the Nine Spins Fire Shield in a frenzy.
"Divine Fire Avatar, activate."
At this moment, a flame suddenly burned on his body. Then, in the next moment, the flame left his body and turned into a blazing flame avatar. This was the Divine Fire Avatar.
After a period of practice on Goldfish Island, Long Chen finally condensed a true fire seed and planted it in his acupuncture points. Today, he used it.
When the Divine Fire Avatar came out, only Yu Chong and the others couldn't see it. Yu Tao and the others didn't know what the Divine Fire Avatar was, so they just had some doubts. But for the Ninth Prince, it was different. It should be known that Long Chen had only obtained the Nine Spins Fire Shield and the Divine Fire Avatar for a short period of time. But now, Long Chen even used the Divine Fire Avatar, which showed his talent.
It should be known that even the Ninth Prince had only recently completed the first level of the Divine Fire Avatar. If he wanted to use it in a battle, he didn't know if it would work.
"Your Highness, do you want me to erase it?" Old Yan noticed the abnormality of the Ninth Prince, so he asked.
"Nonsense. Let's not talk about it now. Let's watch the battle," the Ninth Prince said in a low voice.
"Big brother, what is that brat executing? Why does it seem to be some sort of innate technique? Why does this country bumpkin have so many treasures? Mid-level earth-ranked offensive battle techniques, defensive battle techniques, and even a mid-level earth-ranked divine weapon." The person who spoke earlier felt his eyes turning red with envy.
"He is now one of Your Highness's people. Without Your Highness's permission, we'd better not move. Remember that," Yu Tao said, frowning and looking at the battlefield.
At this time, Long Chen's Divine Fire Avatar had finished condensing. Without hesitation, the Divine Fire Avatar jumped into the Nine Spins Fire Shield and disappeared.
'The Divine Flame Doppelganger possesses one-fifth of the original's power. This is already more powerful than the first rank of the Heavenly River Tier. You can still withstand such an unexpected attack.' Long Chen sneered inwardly.
Under the great pressure of the Silver Moon Slash, Long Chen began to retreat step by step.
"I'm defeated."
Yu Chong, who was crazily using the Silver Moon Slash, was indescribably excited when he saw that victory was in sight. He was just about to follow up with another attack when, at this time, a fiery figure suddenly jumped out from the Nine Spins Fire Shield. Yu Chong didn't even have time to resist, and his forehead was directly punched.
Boom.
A wave of flames swept over Yu Chong's body, quickly burning his wolf-shaped Demonic Beast's fur.
Yu Chong was sent flying by the punch, and at this time, Long Chen withdrew the Nine Spins Fire Shield and suddenly rushed at the injured Yu Chong. The halberd slashed down, smashing into Yu Chong's lower abdomen, and this huge body was slashed to the ground.
Boom.
Yu Chong smashed into the ground and let out a scream. At this time, the flames on his body were forcibly extinguished, but when he could see clearly, he felt a little cold at his throat. When he opened his eyes, it turned out that Long Chen's Blue Dragon Halberd was already pressed against his throat.
"You lost." Long Chen said indifferently.
Yu Chong looked at all this in disbelief, his eyes were wide open, but the residual burning pain on his body told him that Long Chen wasn't lying, he was indeed defeated.
"Impossible." Yu Chong tried to struggle.
"If you move again, believe it or not, I will chop your head off." Long Chen looked at him with a playful look and said with a smile.
This scene was seen by everyone. Yu Tao and the others felt the same as Yu Chong. At first, they couldn't believe it, then they became angry, and finally, they felt guilty because they were about to lose one of the Ninth Prince's fire essence.
The Ninth Prince looked at Long Chen indifferently, his hands were behind his back. Only Old Yan could see that the Ninth Prince's fists were tightly clenched.
