"This is a bodily martial skill. What a fast speed! But so what if you rush up? Do you think you can defeat me like this?" Xiao Kuang laughed coldly in disdain.

Like lightning, Chu Chen quickly rushed forward to avoid the sharp tip of the spear, his eyes flashed with a ruthless light.

"Thunderbolt Explosion!"

It was at this time that Chu Chen shouted loudly, his voice sounding like a thunderclap.

What was even more terrifying was that his fist was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins as it ferociously slammed upwards, exuding an unparalleled might.

Xiao Kuang's eyes flashed, "Intermediate Yellow Rank martial skill, and it's even at the Extreme Realm." He couldn't help but feel a little shocked. No wonder why he dared to charge in. He wanted to suppress my spear arts and launch this strongest attack.

"Clang!"

Putting away the spear, Xiao Kuang also welcomed it with his fist.

Boom!

A loud explosion occurred, and the shockwave caused by the explosion sent the dust flying. In an instant, Xiao Kuang was pushed back, and the three soldiers immediately went forward to stabilize him, causing the strong impact to dissipate.

"Get out of my way, no need to support me." Xiao Kuang could not help but be enraged, I am a Spirit Soul Cultivator, a dignified Iron Spear King, yet I am forced to retreat by an unknown brat, if news of this spread, it would be too much of a joke.

He pushed Xiao Kuang back, causing Chu Chen to retreat a few steps, his Spiritual Martial Stage cultivation level was extremely powerful, luckily he had released eight Martial Vein s, otherwise it would be difficult to resist.

"It was just my carelessness just now. I haven't even used my true moves yet. Next, I'll let you have a taste." Xiao Kuang licked his lips, flames flickering in his eyes, the desire to fight.

His character had always been like this. When encountering strong people, he would trample over them and ruthlessly defeat them. This way, he could use his own martial arts training to destroy his enemies' prestige.

But, could Chu Chen be stepped on by him?

"You didn't use your strongest trump card, but I also didn't use my trump card. Even if I can't defeat you, I don't think it will be easy for you to win." Chu Chen stared at him, and thought secretly in his heart, without question, that was the second powerful opponent he would meet after Lin Langya.

However, Chu Chen was not afraid. After experiencing the destruction of the Northern Spirit Sect, his heart was growing stronger.

If he fell into adversity, he could either fall or rise. With an even stronger Heart of Martial Dao, he could face all kinds of difficulties, and Chu Chen's choice was the latter. His current Heart of Martial Dao was even more stable and not the slightest bit shaken.

"I declare that after I make my move, the battle will end. You will lose without a doubt!" As Xiao Kuang said that, his eyes turned cold and he rushed forward.

"Impudent! Stop right there!" At this moment, a reprimanding voice sounded.

Xiao Kuang was very smart. He knew who the owner of this voice was very well, the ruler of a nation, Yan Wushang.

"Xiao Kuang pays his respect to the Emperor."

"Get up." His tone changed, "What exactly is going on?" Yan Wushang asked solemnly.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Kuang replied: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I heard that the disciples who escorted the princess back were young and capable, with extremely strong powers, so I decided to spar with them. I have been on the battlefield for a long time, so I didn't have a sense of propriety when fighting."

"Xiao Kuang, don't you feel embarrassed? Your own Spiritual Martial Stage cultivation and fighting against your own Bloody Martial Stage, aren't you afraid of others laughing at you?" Yan Yuexi walked out and interrupted.

"I …" Hearing that, Xiao Kuang's face froze.

"Chu Chen, are you alright?" Yan Yuexi didn't care about Xiao Kuang's expression as he directly walked towards Chu Chen and asked with concern.

Chu Chen smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, I have never been afraid of challenges. If the Iron Spear King wants to challenge me, I naturally have to accept.

With that, everyone turned to look at Chu Chen.

They were very clear about Xiao Kuang's strength, although he was a little arrogant, he did have the qualifications to do so, and after hearing what Chu Chen had said, they all showed an astonished expression.

This youth was a little too arrogant. Although he had escorted the princess back, he was too confident. Xiao Kuang was not someone anyone could defeat.

Towards these gazes, Chu Chen did not take them seriously. Right now, Yan Yuexi's injuries seemed to have already healed, and he was about to leave the imperial city soon. There was no need to worry about it, and he did not want to pretend to be scheming something.

Seeing that Yan Yuexi was actually concerned about him, the anger in Xiao Kuang's heart flared up once more, and killing intent flashed past his eyes.

"Chu Chen, with the Emperor here, I will officially challenge you. Do you dare to accept?"

"With your Spiritual Martial Stage?" Chu Chen sneered, his tone carrying indifference, but the meaning behind his words was clear, that it was not fair.

"What? Are you afraid?" Xiao Kuang quickly asked, wanting to redeem some of his face.

"In my, Chu Chen's, mind, there is no such thing as afraid. That's ridiculous. " Chu Chen's mouth revealed a taunting smile.

Xiao Kuang was a Spiritual Martial Stage, and he was a Bloody Martial Stage. If they really fought, they would be defeated without a doubt, and Xiao Kuang had only provoked them once, but he said that he was not afraid, was he really going to compete?

"This young man is too impatient." The crowd shook their heads.

Xiao Kuang liking princesses was not a big secret, and everyone knew the reason for the battle well. They just thought that Chu Chen should not reply, and not only would he be severely injured, he would also lose face.

"Xiao Kuang, you have a cultivation at the second level of Spiritual Martial Stage, while Chu Chen has only reached the level of Bloody Martial Stage. You are much stronger than him, so even if it's a spar, it's not fair." After all, Chu Chen had sent Yan Yuexi back home with gratitude. No matter what, he had to ensure his safety in the Imperial City, so he would just treat it as returning the favor.

"Chu Chen, if you are unwilling, no need to think too much about it, you can reject my offer."

Yan Wushang had thought that Chu Chen would agree to his request. After all, they had already found the right steps, but the result was beyond his expectations.

"Since he wants to duel me so much, I can accept it. However, I will decide on the time."

Chu Chen was not an impulsive person either, but Xiao Kuang still did not want to let go. In that case, he could only accept it, but he would not die for nothing either.

As long as he had enough time to cultivate, he would be able to use the Undead Scripture to open up the ninth Martial Vein and then break through. Adding the fusion of his soul force, defeating Xiao Kuang shouldn't be a problem.

"Hehe, don't worry, I won't bully you either, to avoid appearing unfair. You don't have to be afraid of me killing you or being heavily injured, I can use the common method of Wind Wave Nation to lift the cauldron! In that case, you don't need to worry about being killed by me.

With that, Xiao Kuang stared at Chu Chen's face, trying to find a trace of panic or fear, but he was disappointed, he could not see anything, and was extremely calm. This made him even more mad, this guy, putting on an act, if you agree, see how I will torture you.
