The news of Li Xuantong's challenge had spread like wildfire across the entire Hokuang Reiwon. Just as everyone was waiting for Mu Chen's reply, a piece of news was finally released from the new students' area.
That piece of news had once again caused them to be shocked.
Mu Chen had actually accepted the challenge!
Upon hearing his reply, countless students in the Hokuang Reiwon inwardly smacked their lips. Mu Chen was truly daring. He even dared to accept the challenge. They really didn't know if his courage was praiseworthy, or if he was too rash.
In response to Mu Chen's reply, some people sneered in ridicule, some shook their heads and sighed inwardly. There were also some who were curious. Being able to become the number one freshman, Mu Chen was definitely not a fool. Since he dared to accept the challenge, he definitely had some tricks up his sleeves. However, they didn't know if his tricks were able to match Li Xuantong's prowess.
Regardless, this matter had undoubtedly become a truly sensational matter in the Hokuang Reiwon. Countless students who were originally cultivating in the Spirit Convergence Array and the Lightning Territory, upon hearing this news, unexpectedly stopped their cultivation and came out in succession, preparing to watch the most eye-catching sparring match in the past half a year in the Hokuang Reiwon.
While countless people raised their heads in anticipation, two days swiftly passed. During these two days, Mu Chen had always been cultivating in the little house. Even the members of the Goddess Luo Association had a hard time seeing him. Evidently, he was making preparations for the upcoming challenge that had alarmed countless students in the Hokuang Reiwon.
Although Zhou Ling and the rest were worried, they did not disturb Mu Chen. Since he had already accepted the challenge, there was no longer any chance to regret. This battle was already unavoidable.
Since that was the case, they would let Mu Chen do his best to prepare.
They really didn't hope that Mu Chen could defeat Li Xuantong, because such a thing was too ridiculous.
Li Xuantong was not Yang Hong. The latter had trained in Hokuang Reiwon for several years and his strength had long broken through to the Heavenly Transform Stage. He was on a completely different level compared to Heavenly Fusion Stage practitioners like them. Although Mu Chen had many tricks up his sleeves, the gap between them was not so easy to bridge.
And now, everything.
They could only wait for the battle that had already attracted the attention of countless people in Hokuang Reiwon the next day.
In the small building in the center of the freshman area, Mu Chen sat quietly at the top of the building. He raised his head and looked at the endless starry sky. His expression was calm, without the slightest nervousness before the impending battle.
"Still not resting?"
A delicate fragrance came from behind.
Luo Li's gentle voice drifted over. Mu Chen tilted his head. At this moment, the girl had just taken a bath. Her black robes were as black as ink, and her long hair was loosely draped over her shoulders.
Even the moonlight paled in comparison.
Mu Chen smiled as he nodded his head.
Luo Li gracefully moved closer to Mu Chen. She slightly hesitated, then said: "I seem to have brought you some trouble."
For the past two days, Mu Chen had been training.
He spoke much less. Luo Li could naturally feel that Li Xuantong had indeed given Mu Chen some pressure.
Mu Chen knitted his brows.
A trace of anger flashed across his eyes. He stretched out his arm and pulled that delicate waist into his embrace.
He raised his hand and heavily slapped her perky buttocks, which were wrapped in black robes. He snorted: "If you say such words again, you will get slapped again."
Luo Li's delicate and charming face immediately flushed red. She shyly stared at Mu Chen.
"In this world, how can a swan be eaten so easily?
What's more, the one in my embrace is the princess of swans. "
Mu Chen smiled. Then, he placed his forehead on Luo Li's smooth forehead and said seriously: "Luo Li, I like you. That's why I can destroy all the troubles that have appeared because of you. I did not reject Li Xuantong's invitation because I know that this is only the first battle. In the future, this kind of thing might happen again. However, I want to tell you that I will destroy any obstacles that hinder us from being together."
"If I lose such an outstanding wife, where can I find another one?
I still hope to bring you back to the Northern Spiritual Realm and let my father take a good look at his daughter-in-law.
I must let him know that my eyesight is top-notch. "
Hearing the first part of Mu Chen's words, Luo Li's lips also revealed a gentle smile. However, towards the end, her charming face blushed. She could not bear the shyness in her heart and said: "I'm not going back with you."
"When that time comes, it won't be up to you." Mu Chen grinned. His smile gave the feeling of a little white rabbit that had fallen into the mouth of a big bad wolf.
Luo Li rolled her eyes at him. Her girlish posture was extremely charming. It was completely different from her usual tranquil and distant demeanor. It made Mu Chen slightly dazed. Soon after, Luo Li's black eyes rose a little bit of heat that made Luo Li feel uneasy.
Luo Li gently twisted her body. However, her slender waist was hugged even tighter by Mu Chen. In the next moment, she saw Mu Chen faintly lowering his head. His fiery breath blew against her delicate face.
She seemed to have understood what Mu Chen wanted to do. Her exquisite face instantly turned red as she bit on her rosy lips. Shortly after, she gently closed her eyes.
Forget it. He's going to fight tomorrow. Let's give him some encouragement.
Just as she was thinking about this, her heartbeat quickened. Mu Chen's lips had already pressed against her slightly warm and tender red lips, covering her rouge-like cherry lips.
At this moment, Luo Li's lovable figure was a little stiff. After a brief moment, she gradually regained her softness. Her slender jade-like arms had unknowingly hooked onto Mu Chen's neck. Slightly raising her head, she revealed her swan-like and graceful neck.
Under the illumination of the moonlight, after a long time, their lips finally parted.
Mu Chen looked at the mesmerizing and charming young girl. He couldn't help smacking his lips as he reminisced.
"Rogue!"
At this moment, Luo Li had also sobered up. Thinking back to her previous brazen actions, her lovable face instantly turned boiling hot. She angrily hammered Mu Chen with her small fist. Circulating her Spiritual Energy, she broke free from Mu Chen's arm and quickly fled back to her room.
Looking at the beautiful figure of the young girl, Mu Chen faintly smiled. In the next moment, he deeply exhaled a breath of air. Within his black pupils, a radiance started to surge, blazing fighting intent gushed out.
Li Xuantong, let's have a fight!
The next day, when the first rays of dawn tore through the night sky, shining on the vast land of Hokuang Reiwon, the academy.
At the same time, astonishing vitality started to erupt.
Swish!
Swish!
In the sky, countless whooshing sounds filled the sky. They were all heading towards the same direction, the Spirit Battle Arena, northwest of Hokuang Reiwon.
That was the place in Hokuang Reiwon that was specially used for sparring. Usually, countless students would spar here, using actual combat to increase their strength.
And the battle that had shaken the entire Hokuang Reiwon over the past two days would also be held here.
Today's Spirit Battle Arena was clearly especially lively, and the number of people was astonishing.
On the largest Battle Stage in the Spirit Battle Arena, there was already a sea of people. As far as the eye could see, it was a dense mass of black heads, with no end in sight.
In the center of the sea of people.
In front of it was a vast Battle Stage, roughly a few thousand feet in size. It was enough to accommodate an extremely exciting and fiery battle.
"This battle can be considered the most eye-catching one in Hokuang Reiwon this year." Someone looked at the crowd around the Battle Stage and could not help but click his tongue.
"That's right. Don't you see the Heavenly Ranking's Rank 3 Su Xuan?
The Rank 4 He Yao and Rank 5 Xu Huang have both appeared?
I'm afraid Li Xuantong is the only one who can make them appear. "
"Hehe, you've forgotten about the most monstrous person in Hokuang Reiwon?" Someone laughed weirdly.
"Eh? You're talking about Shen Cangsheng?
That kind of person.
He's a little too heaven-defying. I believe that no one can shake his position.
Not even Li Xuantong can do it. "
"Yeah, didn't you see that he rarely appears in Hokuang Reiwon?
His eyes.
He's already jumped out of Hokuang Reiwon and directly entered the Northern Heavens Continent. "
"I really don't know when he'll be able to reach that level." Some people sighed. The majority of those that were able to enter the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy were people with pretty good talent. However, when faced with that name, even they felt a wave of helplessness and admiration.
At the back of the crowd, many whispers sounded out. Su Ling 'er and Su Xuan were seated in the front seats. The pair of beautiful sisters were extremely eye-catching. One of them was delicate and charming, while the other was gentle and gentle. It was a feast for the eyes.
Not far away from Su Xuan and Su Ling 'er was a green-haired youth. His appearance was bewitching and the smile on his face looked a little sinister. However, it also caused many girls to secretly look at him.
This person was the Rank 4 of the Heavenly Ranking, He Yao. In Hokuang Reiwon, his fame wasn't any weaker than Li Xuantong's.
Not far away from his right was Xu Huang. At this moment, Xu Huang had his eyes closed in meditation. Beside him, Xu Qingqing had an excited expression. She couldn't wait to see the moment when Mu Chen was in a sorry state.
Indeed, it was as the people behind had said. The lineup that was attracted by this battle was extremely luxurious.
Swish!
While the surroundings of the battle stage were in an uproar, a figure suddenly shot over from afar. He appeared on the battle stage with his hands behind his back and a calm expression on his face.
"Li Xuantong is here!"
Looking at the figure that had appeared, the surroundings of the battle stage instantly exploded. In the next moment, everyone's eyes lit up. One of the main characters had finally appeared.
At this moment, Su Xuan, He Yao, Xu Huang and the rest also cast their gazes towards Li Xuantong. In this place, the only person that could attract their interest was probably Li Xuantong.
The moment Li Xuantong appeared, he didn't care about the sea of people around him. Instead, he closed his eyes and quietly waited for the time to come.
The uproar continued.
Whooshing sounds finally rang out from the sky outside the Spirit Battle Arena when the sun started to rise. Numerous figures flew over in a flash. A few of them landed on the seats on the Battle Stage, while the last one landed on the spacious Battle Stage under the attention of countless gazes.
As the slender figure of the youth landed on the stage, he raised his head and looked at the figure opposite him. With a smile, he cupped his fists together and a calm voice that didn't contain any fear rang out.
"Senior Li Xuantong, Mu Chen has come to accept the challenge!"
As his words rang out, the atmosphere in the surroundings of the battle stage abruptly flared up.
