Chapter 77

C77 – I Think You Two Are a Good Match!

“Master, he is Loong Chen, the one you personally requested to join the Dragon God Temple,” Dugu Lengyue respectfully informed the man beside her, who wore a dragon head mask.

Her tone was filled with reverence as she spoke.

“Master, may I inquire why you hold such a keen interest in this man? You not only asked me to bring him to the Dragon God Temple but have also been closely monitoring his progress,” Dugu Lengyue questioned with a hint of doubt.

Dugu Lengyue held the esteemed position of being the top-ranked individual on the Sky Rankings within the Dragon God Temple, and she was the sole disciple of the Palace Master. Her status within the temple was exceptionally high.

Such tasks shouldn’t have fallen upon her, yet the Dragon God Temple’s Palace Master had assigned them to her.

Moreover, Palace Master had never previously shown an interest in palace affairs. However, he had now arrived to witness Loong Chen’s duel.

This behavior left Dugu Lengyue feeling perplexed.

She wasn’t one to engage in gossip, but since it involved her master, she felt compelled to seek answers.

The man beside her, wearing the dragon head mask, spoke at this moment but didn’t directly address Dugu Lengyue’s query.

“What is your impression of him?”

The voice emanating from the dragon head mask had been deliberately altered, making it impossible for Dugu Lengyue to discern the speaker’s gender.

Dugu Lengyue had grown accustomed to this voice, so she didn’t find it strange or unexpected.

“His talent is exceptional. Upon arriving at the Dragon God Temple, he swiftly surpassed your Tower of Trials record. He also effortlessly defeated Zhao Sanduo and Steward Soong. However, his current level is still relatively low.”

“Given time, he may have the potential to ascend to the top of the Sky Rankings,” Dugu Lengyue replied.

Dugu Lengyue responded, well aware of what had transpired with Loong Chen in the Dragon God Temple. She held a strong belief in Loong Chen’s abilities.

Her confidence in Loong Chen was further solidified when she discovered that he possessed numerous exceptional talents, including her own spatial talent.

Could it be that her master valued him so highly because of his extraordinary talents?

The man behind the dragon head mask clarified, “I’m not inquiring about his talents and strength. I want to know your personal opinion of him.”

The enigmatic man in the dragon mask repeated his question.

“Oh? Master, I’m not sure I understand.”

Dugu Lengyue was somewhat perplexed.

The masked man explained, “What I mean is, do you believe he could be your partner? I sense a certain compatibility between the two of you.”

His voice carried a hint of amusement.

Loong Chen considered that perhaps by activating the Titan Mark and assuming the Beast Form, he could surpass Murong Yuntian’s strength.

Nevertheless, unless it became an absolute necessity, Loong Chen had no intention of unveiling this ability before everyone.

After all, when he transformed, his clothes and pants would be shredded. Consequently, Loong Chen had no intention of employing this ability in the presence of others.

He had no desire for everyone to witness him in a state of undress.

“I underestimated you. Since you managed to withstand my previous attack, I’ll have to take you seriously now,” Murong Yuntian admitted, his anger apparent.

Murong Yuntian wore a fierce grin, and the reason he had invited everyone to witness the battle was to demonstrate his absolute superiority and crush Loong Chen in front of an audience.

However, his plan had been swiftly disrupted, much to his displeasure.

“Dragon Fist!”

Murong Yuntian shouted, and in that moment, a faint image of a dragon elephant materialized behind him.

Zhao Sanduo had employed this technique previously, but it was evident that Murong Yuntian’s aura surpassed Zhao Sanduo’s by several times.

Murong Yuntian’s mastery of the Dragon Fist far exceeded that of Zhao Sanduo.

After gathering his energy, Murong Yuntian executed a punch that seemed to resonate with the roars of dragons and elephants, leaving everyone in awe.

Loong Chen’s expression shifted slightly, but he still met the punch head-on.

The resulting shockwave was even more formidable. Loong Chen had to take several rapid steps backward, while Murong Yuntian remained unfazed.

“He’s incredibly strong.”

Loong Chen took a deep breath, realizing that if his Vajra Domineering Body hadn’t reached its peak level, and his body wasn’t exceptionally resilient, he might have been injured by that punch.

“He’s not even injured?”

Witnessing Loong Chen’s composed demeanor, the onlookers were astonished.

“It’s my turn now.”

Loong Chen coldly snorted and channeled his spiritual energy to command the Lightning Superpower, releasing the Trial of Thunder.

In an instant, the sky became shrouded in dark clouds, accompanied by the rumbling of thunder.

“That’s the Lightning Superpower. His exceptional talent can actually influence the world’s weather!” Someone exclaimed.

Murong Yuntian, locked in by the lightning in the sky, displayed a change in expression.

As the one directly involved, he could keenly sense the immense power of the lightning in the heavens.
