The atmosphere around the vast arena suddenly boiled. Countless curious gazes were directed at the slender youth. The latter was handsome and had a smile on his face. His fearless demeanor made many people secretly nod their heads. No matter what the result was, at least Mu Chen dared to accept the challenge. Many people acknowledged his courage.
"Hehe, this little junior is quite handsome."
"It would be even better if he was a little stronger."
A few pretty girls also clustered together. Their beautiful eyes contained rippling waves as they looked at the youth in the arena and laughed in low voices.
"Is that this year's number one freshman, Mu Chen?"
After all, only a few girls cared about Mu Chen's appearance. Most of them narrowed their eyes as they examined Mu Chen. A Heavenly Fusion Stage Initial Phase shouldn't be considered the strongest among the freshmen, right?
However, he was able to become the number one freshman. It seemed like this Mu Chen did have some tricks up his sleeve.
"That guy really came."
Su Ling 'er looked at Mu Chen, who had appeared. The latter stood proudly on the stage, facing Li Xuantong without the slightest bit of fear. This made her eyes light up. Shortly after, she flung her lips and said.
"So he's Mu Chen?"
Su Xuan was also a little curious as she sized up Mu Chen. She slightly nodded and said: "His bearing is not bad. To be able to remain so calm in front of Li Xuantong, even some of the older students can't do that."
Su Ling 'er hurriedly said: "Big sister, don't underestimate him. Although he's only at the Heavenly Fusion Stage Initial Phase, his strength isn't weak. Even Heavenly Fusion Stage Late Phase couldn't gain an advantage against him."
"Oh?
That's interesting. "
Su Xuan smiled faintly and said, "However, just this alone won't be enough to compete with Li Xuantong. Although I don't know how they will spar, no matter how I look at it, Li Xuantong has the absolute advantage.
It will be extremely difficult for Mu Chen to shake this advantage. "
Su Ling 'er also sighed. She naturally knew that what Su Xuan said wasn't false. However, since things had already come to this, they could only rely on Mu Chen himself.
Hopefully, he would be able to persevere for a while longer.
Even if he lost, no one would mock him. After all, this was a battle between two levels. Even if Li Xuan won, it would be an unfair victory.
"He is the number one freshman who has been the talk of the town recently.
Mu Chen? "
The green-haired He Yao stared at Mu Chen with an evil smile at the corner of his mouth, before giving a faint smile. From the looks of it, there wasn't anything special about it.
He did not know what had happened for Li Xuantong to personally issue a challenge. The number of people who could receive such treatment in Hokuang Reiwon could be counted on one hand.
On the other side, Xu Qingqing gritted her teeth and stared at Mu Chen the moment he appeared.
His eyes were filled with hatred. 'You're still pretending? Let's see how you're going to pretend when you're easily crushed by Li Xuantong!'
Xu Huang, who was at the side.
His face was still indifferent. His deep-set eyes were filled with a sharp light as he stared at Mu Chen.
His five fingers lightly knocked on the stone chair, emitting a crisp sound.
A few places at the back.
Yang Hong, Mu Kui, and Bing Qing were actually among them. In the past two days, the news of Li Xuantong issuing a challenge to Mu Chen had spread like wildfire. How could they not know about it? Regarding this confrontation, they also wanted to come and watch.
Yang Hong obviously wanted to see Mu Chen in a difficult situation. Mu Kui and Bing Qing, on the other hand, wanted to see how Mu Chen, whom they were afraid of, would perform in front of Li Xuantong, a true influential figure of Hokuang Reiwon.
Would he be crushed, or would he create another miracle?
They were a little curious about this.
Everyone's gazes were clearly focused on the two figures on the battle platform. Their eyes were filled with anticipation.
Under the countless gazes, the gazes of the two people in the arena slowly collided. The flowing air seemed to have frozen at this moment.
Li Xuantong still wore an indifferent expression. He stared at Mu Chen and said, "Fortunately, you didn't reject the challenge. Your courage is admirable."
"Many thanks for the praise, Senior Li Xuantong."
Mu Chen gave a noncommittal smile. However, there wasn't much of a smile within his black pupils. Instead, there was a hint of sharpness as he stared at Li Xuantong and slowly said, "Senior Brother Li Xuantong, please explain the format of this spar."
Li Xuantong's eyes were indifferent. Soon after, he lowered his gaze and said, "Don't worry, I won't leave you with no way out."
Mu Chen smiled in a carefree manner and said, "Senior Li Xuantong, please be rest assured. I've walked many paths of death, and I'm rather experienced in this. Since I, Mu Chen, am here today, I will naturally accompany you to the end."
Li Xuantong faintly nodded his head. He raised his head and looked at the sea of people around the battle platform. His gaze was extremely sharp. With a sweep, it stopped at a certain spot on the battle platform.
Li Xuantong was the center of attention in this place. His gaze immediately attracted the attention of countless people. Everyone's gazes followed him and gathered on the delicate face of a young girl with a tranquil temperament.
"She's that Luo Li?
It's said that Li Xuantong likes her. From the looks of it, it seems to be true. "
"Tsk tsk, this appearance, this temperament, she's really of the highest quality. In the entire Hokuang Reiwon, I'm afraid that only Su Xuan can compete with her. No wonder the two outstanding seniors and new students would fight for her."
"She's already so beautiful at such a young age. How will she fare in the future?
Who would be willing to let go of such a little beauty? "
“”
When those gazes looked at the black-dressed young girl, astonishment flashed across their eyes. After that, they couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
"She's Luo Li?
She's indeed outstanding. "Su Xuan, who was at the front, tilted her head as a trace of astonishment flashed across her eyes.
"Yes."
Su Ling 'er couldn't deny this. She had fought with Luo Li before. She knew that not only was this girl beautiful, her strength was also extremely shocking. Honestly speaking, she might have hidden her strength even deeper than Mu Chen. Unless it was a special situation, she would rarely reveal her true strength.
While they were praising her, Xu Qingqing didn't have the same magnanimity. She looked at Luo Li with eyes filled with jealousy. The latter's appearance and temperament made her feel ashamed of her inferiority. At the same time, her embarrassment turned into anger.
However, Luo Li completely ignored the various gazes that came from all directions. Her slightly cold glass-like eyes stared at Li Xuantong, who was looking over. Her exquisite face was filled with a slight chill.
"Looks like I've angered her again."
Li Xuantong helplessly shrugged his shoulders. Turning his gaze back to Mu Chen, he said in an indifferent tone, "After all, there's indeed some disparity between the two of us. I also don't want others to say that I'm using my strength to bully the weak. Therefore, I'll give you a chance in this competition."
"Three moves."
Li Xuantong stretched out three fingers. He stared at Mu Chen and said slowly, "If you can receive three moves from me, you'll win this competition. However, I won't hold back. Whether you can receive it or not, it's entirely up to you."
"How about it?
Do you dare to receive it? "
Some people around the stage narrowed their eyes. This so-called agreement of three moves might seem simple, but it was incomparably dangerous. If it was an ordinary fight, perhaps Li Xuantong wouldn't be too serious. However, once the agreement of three moves was set, perhaps he would use his true strength. For Mu Chen, this was an opportunity. However, within this opportunity, there was also an astonishing amount of danger.
In the entire Hokuang Reiwon, there weren't many people who could receive three moves from Li Xuantong. Moreover, each and every one of them possessed a reputation that far surpassed Mu Chen's in Hokuang Reiwon.
Countless gazes looked towards Mu Chen, waiting for his decision.
Under the countless gazes, Mu Chen lightly spat out a puff of white air. He slowly nodded towards Li Xuantong and said, "I've said it before. I'll accept any method."
"Alright."
Li Xuantong silently nodded his head. He stared at Mu Chen and spoke in a voice that only the latter could hear, "If you can receive it, I'll tell you some information regarding the Luo God Clan. I believe that you'll be very interested in it."
Mu Chen's eyes narrowed as he slowly clenched his fists. Li Xuantong's words had undoubtedly touched his heart. From some of Li Xuantong's words, Mu Chen knew that Luo Li seemed to have made a promise to the so-called "Luo God Clan" in order to come to Hokuang Reiwon. Such a promise shouldn't be too good for her. Evidently, the Luo God Clan did not allow Mu Chen to be together with Luo Li. Therefore, Mu Chen had to know some information regarding the "Luo God Clan" in order to prepare for any future troubles.
"Then, please enlighten me, Senior Brother Li Xuantong."
Mu Chen clenched his fists as the Spiritual Energy within his body started to circulate without any restraint. The jet-black Spiritual Energy blazed with black flames as it gushed out of his body like black smoke. The surrounding air seemed to distort because of this.
The agreement of three moves.
There wouldn't be any probing attacks. Once he made his move, it would definitely be a thunderous storm. Therefore, he had to use all of his strength and means.
Mu Chen's black pupils surged with sharpness as he turned his head to look at the black-dressed young girl on the viewing platform. At this moment, the latter was biting her rosy lips with her pearly white teeth. Clearly, she was also slightly nervous.
"I won't lose!"
If he couldn't even get through this obstacle, how would he face the even more difficult obstacles in the future!
Mu Chen suddenly raised his head as black flames rose within his eyes. Looking at Li Xuantong, who still had an indifferent expression on his face, Mu Chen's low and deep voice contained some heart-trembling firmness as it resounded across the entire square.
"Senior Brother Li Xuantong, make your move!"
