Chapter 80 Battle

"Look, Wang Chen is coming with the old man," Su Zhong said, pointing his finger towards a specific point in the sky.

"I can't see them," Su Chen replied.

"Your cultivation base is lower than mine. It's normal that you can't see or sense what I can from afar," Su Zhong explained.

As Xue Lan and Wang Chen landed on the ground, Su Chen and Su Zhong rushed towards them along with other elders who were present in the area. They eagerly approached the Wang Chen and Xue Lan, curious about what had happened.

"What happened, Wang Chen? Tell us," Su Chen asked. He knew he couldn't directly ask the old man, but unexpectedly, this time, Xue Lan replied.

"This young man, Wang Chen, told me that the boy called Yue Jang has an evil spirit residing in him. If we give it time to grow, it will naturally become stronger, and at that time, it will be hard to kill. So, it's best to destroy it in its early stage, but he escaped in black miasma," Xue Lan explained.

"Now, I will excuse myself as I have to announce the results in other sects as well," Xue Lan said and then disappeared from the sight of all the people.

After Xue Lan disappeared, all the people turned their attention towards Wang Chen, their faces filled with curiosity and questions. Su Chen, in particular, was keen to know more about what had transpired, and he asked Wang Chen, "What did the old man mean by an evil spirit residing on Yue Jang? Do you know anything about it?"

"Yes there is an ancient evil spirit residing in Yue Jang I only that." Wang

"One last question, we all have, is why did the old man choose to take you to follow Yue Jang and that evil spirit?" Su Zhong stepped forward and asked Wang Chen.

"It's because the old man told me that I possess a special physique that can aid him in destroying the evil spirit more easily," Wang Chen answered nonchalantly.

The atmosphere became tense as Wang Chen revealed that he had a special physique that could aid in the destruction of the evil spirit. People started murmuring among themselves, amazed by the revelation. Su Zhong and Su Chen looked at each other in surprise, not knowing what to make of this sudden turn of events.

Slowly, people started to disperse as the second elder gave the order to leave. Before departing, he gave Wang Chen a kind smile and encouraged him to continue practicing diligently. He even hinted that if Xue Lan found something interesting in Wang Chen, he might be selected to go to the prestigious Canglian Dynasty sect as well.

This made them think that Wang Chen felt a sense of motivation and responsibility to work harder and prove himself worthy to them.

…

Four days have passed since the incident with Yue Jang and Yue Se's conspiracy was revealed. Today is the second test.

"Master, are you ready for the second test?" she asked.

"I've been waiting for it," Wang Chen replied as he got up from his cultivation cushion and stretched his body a little more.

"The test will be held in our sect so all the other three sect disciples who passed the first round will come here." Li Mei said.

"Okay it's time to go." Wang Chen then walked out from his cabin with Li Mei and went towards the battle arena where the second round would be held.

Wang Chen and Li Mei walked towards the edge of the arena and found a place to sit down among the other spectators. As they looked around, they noticed that there were representatives from various sects present, all gathered to witness the second round of the competition.

The flying ships that had landed earlier belonged to these sects, and they had all sent their most talented disciples to participate in the competition. The atmosphere was tense and charged with excitement, as everyone eagerly waited for the start of the second round.

When Xue Lan appeared on the fighting platform and announced the start of the second round, the crowd erupted into cheers and applause. The first match was between two disciples from different sects, and the fight was intense and fierce.

Wang Chen watched the fight with great interest, analyzing the techniques and strategies used by both sides. He knew that he would have to face some of these talented disciples in the later rounds, and he was determined to win the competition.

As the second round continued, Wang Chen watched each match intently, taking note of the strengths and weaknesses of his opponents. As many disciples from sect uses same technique mostly till they found a better one.

"The next match will be of Su Chen vs Zu Ming." Xue Lan announced.

Hearing this Wang Chen became more interested in this battle.

Soon Zu Ming and Su Chen both came on the fighting platform.

"You guys killed my brother I will never forgive you and if given chance I will kill you." Zu Ming said with hatred.

"It doesn't matter if I killed your brother or not and if you want to ask who killed your brother then go to your brother and ask him." Su Chen sneered.

Hearing this Zu Ming just lumped at Su Chen. Zu Ming used blood types to attack and Su Chen used his dagger to cut them down but the blood was tougher than still and didn't break it down so he used some force then it broke but as their fight continued like this.

As Su Chen and Zu Ming continued to exchange blows, the air around them crackled with energy. Zu Ming was a fierce opponent, with a powerful command over his blood-based attacks. He would send waves of blood at Su Chen, who expertly dodged and parried each one with his quick reflexes and agile movements.

Su Chen's weapon of choice was his trusty dagger, which glinted menacingly in the bright sun. As he lunged forward to attack Zu Ming, the latter jumped back and summoned a massive ball of blood, sending it hurtling towards Su Chen. But the young cultivator was too quick - he sidestepped the attack and landed a solid blow on Zu Ming's abdomen.

Zu Ming staggered back, but regained his balance and retaliated with a vicious swipe of his arm. Su Chen ducked under the attack and kicked Zu Ming in the back, sending him sprawling forward. The crowd roared with excitement as the two fighters continued to exchange blows, each one trying to gain the upper hand.

Despite his impressive performance, Su Chen could feel his energy waning. He had been fighting for what felt like hours, and he knew that he couldn't keep up this pace forever. As Zu Ming lunged forward again, Su Chen took a deep breath and focused his energy into a powerful strike.

With a quick flick of his wrist, Su Chen summoned a wave of energy that sliced through the air and struck Zu Ming directly in the chest. The impact was so strong that Zu Ming was thrown backwards, landing with a thud on the ground.

Suddenly the energy around Zu Ming started to boil as he used his blood essence and he doesn't need to care about this as he can recuperate at any time according to the blood emperor inheritance and this will give him a significant boost in fighting then he stood up and moved to attack Su Chen.

Zu Ming's attack was swift and powerful, his movements fluid like a serpent. Su Chen, on the other hand, was more cautious, his movements calculated and precise. As Zu Ming charged towards him, Su Chen swiftly dodged to the side and delivered a swift kick to Zu Ming's back, causing him to stumble.

Zu Ming quickly regained his balance and retaliated with a barrage of punches, but Su Chen was able to block most of them with his dagger. The sound of metal clashing against flesh echoed through the arena as the two fighters continued their intense battle.

As the fight continued, Zu Ming's attacks became more and more ferocious, but Su Chen remained calm and focused, countering each attack with equal intensity. The two fighters were evenly matched, and neither seemed to gain a clear advantage over the other.

The spectators watched in awe as the two fighters traded blows, their movements fast and fluid like a dance. Despite the intense fight, both fighters were able to dodge and block each other's attacks with incredible skill.

As the fight approached its end, both fighters were exhausted, their bodies covered in sweat and blood. In a final burst of energy, they charged towards each other, their weapons clashing in a final, thunderous blow.The sound of the weapons colliding echoed through the arena as both fighters were knocked to the ground. The spectators watched in silence as they waited to see who would get up first. After a few moments, both fighters slowly got up, their faces bruised and battered.

Xue Lan stepped forward and declared the fight a draw.
