"It's about to begin."
"Why am I feeling so excited?"
"It's normal. This is a battle of grandmasters. Even in the martial arts world, it's a rare sight."
The murmurs of conversation rose as Chen Feng followed Du ngqi through the corridors and halls, arriving at a particular place.
A vast square, nearly a thousand square ters in size, made entirely of white jade.
Located on the mountainside, backed by a cliff, it was perfectly flat.
Looking up, one could see the sea of clouds in the mountains, with a blazing sun hanging high in the sky, casting a golden light.
To the left and right, one could see corridors surrounding the area, with layered pavilions and gray stone pillars carved with giant elephant patterns lining the edges.
"This is the training ground of the Giant Elephant Sect. It's usually never open to the public."
"It's only because of my cousin's connections that we have the chance to be here."
Walking to a corner, the young man surnad Zhang was proudly showing off to the tour group.
It wasn't an exaggeration. Chen Feng looked around and saw the corridors on both sides packed with people.
There were middle-aged n and elders with wooden hairpins and ancient-style robes.
There were young n with short hair, wearing casual sportswear, clearly in the process of refining their internal organs.
There were also well-dressed businessn and politicians, exuding an air of authority.
In addition, looking up, one could see many martial artists standing on the tiled roofs of the corridors, and so drones were hovering in the air, adjusting their cara angles.
"Mr. Chen, this is our spot."
"Please don't wander off later."
Du ngqi softly reminded him. Chen Feng nodded and stood at the very back of the corridor, pressed against the brick wall of the hall behind him.
The people in the front rows were mostly tall, blocking much of the view.
But even so, the seven or eight young n and won from the tour group were still excited.
"It looks so grand. Is this what the martial arts world is like?"
"Everyone here seems so strong. I don't even dare to speak loudly with just one look from them."
"Wow, look over there! Isn't that Councilor Xu from the Yue City United Coalition? I've seen him on TV. He's here too?"
"Not just him. Look over there, the chairman of Hengtong Group is also here!"
Their excited chatter drew the attention of so martial artists around them.
So shook their heads and frowned, while others remained indifferent.
Chen Feng remained silent throughout, glancing in the direction of their discussions.
His senses heightened, focusing on a spacious area near the main entrance of the hall.
The training ground ascended several steps, with rows of pearwood chairs neatly arranged.
Those seated were true intent masters, as well as so well-known businessn and council representatives from Yue City and even the entire Ze Province.
chanical martial artists and Silver-grade cyborgs guarded the sides, along with disciples of the Giant Elephant Sect, who stood with their arms hanging at their sides.
Chen Feng saw Zhang Tai and even Pang Kui, dressed in a tight-fitting robe.
"Hmm?"
He was sowhat surprised to see that many people from the Sea Swallowing Whale Sect had co here.
Among them, two n, one middle-aged and one elderly, were being surrounded in the central position.
One wore a tight-fitting robe, towering and burly, with a bald head, looking to be in his early forties, sitting there like a towering mountain.
The other wore a white robe, with gray hair and eyebrows, around fifty or sixty years old.
He was slightly thinner, resembling an ordinary old man.
As if sensing sothing, the older man glanced over.
But soon, finding nothing, he shook his head and couldn't help but praise.
"Giant Elephant Grandmaster, your Yue City truly has many talented people."
The bald, burly man was puzzled, then exchanged a few words and glanced around.
"Haha, quite a few schools are here today. There are always so with unique true skills."
Not particularly concerned, he instead said, "Speaking of which, I must thank you, Whale Sect Grandmaster, for coming here personally to support our Giant Elephant Sect."
"Otherwise, today, we might not be able to withstand the Flying Dragon's montum."
The white-robed old man shook his head, speaking earnestly, "No need for thanks."
"The Flying Dragon Sect is too powerful, and their actions are too domineering. We are just banding together for warmth."
The two chatted for a few more sentences, and then the bald, burly man's tone shifted, curious.
"Grandmaster Flying Eagle is a seasoned grandmaster, yet he was severely injured by Lu Xinglong in just a few dozen moves."
"Could it be that he has reached the pinnacle?"
"No, not quite."
The white-robed old man shook his head gently, his tone distant, "The pinnacle is the ultimate realm of a grandmaster, and breaking through is extrely difficult."
"Throughout the entire Red Nation, only a handful have reached this realm. Although Lu Xinglong is a late bloor, he is still quite far from this realm."
Hearing this, the bald, burly man felt sowhat relieved.
As long as it wasn't the pinnacle, there was still a fight to be had.
The two fell silent, gradually beginning to gather their energy and wait.
The true intent masters and local councilors behind them all wore serious expressions, and so Silver-grade cyborgs guarded the sides, their expressions varied.
"Senior brother, we should be able to win, right?"
Zhang Tai stood in the back row of the true disciples' position, looking sowhat anxious and nervous.
"We should be able to."
Zheng Shan was uncertain, as the Flying Eagle Flow's crushing defeat was too shocking.
If it weren't for the Sea Swallowing Whale Sect coming to assist, the outco would have already been decided.
"Don't worry."
"My grandmaster has rarely co out of seclusion. There's no way he could lose."
Pang Kui, who had recovered from his injuries, stood beside them, shaking his head, still full of confidence.
Zhang Tai and Zheng Shan exchanged glances, both sowhat envious of the other's positive attitude.
"See that? That's my cousin."
In the crowded corridor, the tour group was still excitedly chatting.
The young man surnad Zhang pointed to a tall, burly young man standing guard and maintaining order in the opposite corridor.
Everyone looked over, and a girl asked curiously, "Your cousin is a core disciple of the Giant Elephant Sect? He must be at the professional level, right?"
"Of course, my cousin is already at professional level seven."
The young man surnad Zhang was slightly proud, and the others around him expressed their admiration.
Even Du ngqi thought it was quite impressive and joined the conversation.
Only Chen Feng stood alone at the edge of the crowd, remaining silent, seeming sowhat out of place.
As for the others around them, perhaps because they were on the Giant Elephant Sect's turf, and the young man kept ntioning his cousin, they weren't sure how to react.
Although they found the noise annoying, they didn't say much.
"Your cousin is at professional level seven and is only a core disciple. I heard the Giant Elephant Sect also has true disciples, elders, and even the sect leader."
"What level are they at?"
A girl suddenly asked. The young man surnad Zhang had clearly done his howork and, glancing at Chen Feng, who had been isolated the entire ti, smiled and said, "Above the professional level is the master level."
"In the martial arts world, it's also called inner strength and true intent, corresponding to the true disciples and elders of the Giant Elephant Sect."
Everyone gained so knowledge, and soone else asked curiously.
"What about grandmasters? Isn't today a battle of grandmasters?"
"Above the master level, the pinnacle of martial arts." The young man surnad Zhang said mysteriously, and the girls around him were completely captivated.
Seemingly satisfied with this, the young man surnad Zhang continued chatting with them.
Just then.
Whoosh!!
Several aircraft broke through the sky, their round gray cabins parting the sea of clouds.
The entire Yue Mountain seed to quiet down for a mont, all noise paused.
"They're here."
A deep voice sounded. One of the grandmasters seated at the front, the bald, burly man, looked extrely serious.
The white-robed old man beside him also narrowed his eyes. All the martial artists present tensed up, looking up.
Buzz! Click!
The cabin door opened, revealing two figures inside.
One middle-aged, one elderly.
The forr wore a light blue robe, with a square face and deep eyes. He was none other than the middle-aged sect leader of the Flying Dragon Sect, Lu Xinglong.
The latter wore a gray robe, with a flying dragon pattern on the sleeves. He had white hair and a youthful face, his aura restrained.
In an instant, under the gaze of countless eyes.
The blue-robed figure moved, stepping out.
He fell from a height of several dozen ters, causing many to gasp in shock!
The girls in the tour group covered their eyes, too scared to look.
Roar!!!
At the critical mont, the sound of a dragon's roar suddenly rang out.
A seven or eight-ter-long flying dragon appeared in mid-air, carrying the blue-robed figure, and landed gently.
Everyone stared, and so true intent masters looked horrified.
"Flying Dragon in the Sky..."
The white-robed old man of the Sea Swallowing Whale Sect looked grave, understanding the technique.
This was an extrely high-level application of force.
Chen Feng, wearing a sunshade mask, narrowed his eyes, doing his best to suppress all his energy.
"I didn't expect it to be so lively today."
Lu Xinglong stood in the center of the white jade square, glancing around at the hundreds of people gathered.
He ignored them, finally stopping his gaze on the two grandmasters of the Giant Elephant and Whale Sect, over a hundred ters away.
"Very well..."
"Giant Elephant, Whale Sect."
"Let's begin."
Without any unnecessary words, Lu Xinglong spoke calmly, naturally seeing that the two schools had joined forces.
The flying dragon phantom behind him seed to solidify, each scale lifelike, its whiskers twitching, looking down at everyone.
Seeing his overbearing deanor, the Giant Elephant Grandmaster's gaze darkened, and he stood up.
"We disdain ganging up on you."
"Old rules, if you lose, leave Ze Province. If you win, the Giant Elephant Sect will bow to you!"
As his voice fell, a deafening sound suddenly erupted.
Roar!!!
It was a deep gray giant elephant.
Its tusks were nacingly pointed forward, its legs as thick as pillars.
Standing eight or nine ters tall, it seed both real and illusory, blocking all light, casting a large shadow over everyone.
This scene stunned the tour group, leaving them in awe.
The other martial artists around, though sowhat better, still showed a fanatical expression.
Giant Elephant!
The pride of Yue City, the top sect of Ze Province!
"Good!"
Lu Xinglong responded loudly. The gray-robed old man in the aircraft remained motionless, but the Whale Sect grandmaster below locked eyes with him, their energies clashing.
Whoosh!!!
A figure shot through the air, covering dozens of ters in an instant.
In just two breaths, the bald, burly man in deep gray attire had already arrived on the white jade square.
Boom!!!
The solid tiles exploded, and everyone present felt the ground shake.
The next mont, as the Giant Elephant Grandmaster steadied himself.
Roar!!!
The deafening elephant roar erupted again. The true intent elephant raised its front legs, seemingly rging with the burly man's arms, delivering a ferocious strike.
The massive shadow enveloped the sky, like a mountain pressing down.
Roar!!!
The dragon's roar sounded again, the flying dragon dancing in the sky.
The deep gray force clashed with the blue light. Lu Xinglong, in his blue robe, stood in place, raising his palm to block the heavy fists.
Crack!
Boom!!!
The vast white jade square shook violently, the tiles shattering one by one, spreading out dozens of ters from the two as the center.
Shards of debris shot out like bullets, heading straight for the surrounding corridors.
So martial artists intercepted them, so cyborgs acted.
But perhaps because they had been annoyed by the young man surnad Zhang earlier.
The people around the tour group remained indifferent.
In an instant, seven or eight pairs of eyes widened in fear, the young man surnad Zhang already pale and trembling.
Crack!
At the critical mont, a thick hand reached out, grabbing the tile fragnts.
Powder fell, and ignoring the suspicious glances around him, Chen Feng stepped forward, standing at the very front of the corridor.
The tour group was stunned, and the guide Du ngqi widened her eyes in surprise.
Roar!!!
At that mont, the situation on the field suddenly changed.
The true intent flying dragon coiled out, gradually binding the giant elephant's true intent.
The blue force was clearly stronger, the deep gray force sowhat dim.
"Your breakthrough was too recent."
Lu Xinglong spoke calmly. The Giant Elephant Grandmaster looked serious, then felt the palm under his fist suddenly empty.
A sense of crisis surged, and he imdiately mobilized his entire body's energy, forming a golden bell!
Clang!!!
A palm struck his chest.
The clear sound echoed endlessly, the blue light exploded, and his attire shattered.
His burly, muscular body was revealed, with a red palm print on it.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!!
The blue light flashed continuously.
Lu Xinglong struck out with palm after palm, each ti producing the clear sound of striking steel.
Visibly, the Giant Elephant Grandmaster was forced back step by step, his footprints sinking deeper, gradually subrging his calves.
Clang!!
Another palm struck, and cracks spread from under their feet, extending over ten ters.
Seizing this mont, the Giant Elephant Grandmaster roared, his energy suddenly exploding.
Boom!!!
Lu Xinglong was repelled, his figure sent flying.
The giant elephant bound by the flying dragon in mid-air also shook, breaking free and stepping forward.
"Giant Elephant... Trampling the Heavens!!"
The roar echoed throughout the area. The Giant Elephant Grandmaster stomped the ground, shattering one-fifth of the square into a massive block over ten ters.
The next mont, he had already shot through the air over ten ters, catching up to the flying Lu Xinglong, arriving at his side.
His arms raised like battle axes, veins bulging like coiling pythons, his eyes filled with ferocity.
Hum!!!
The heavy strike descended, the giant elephant's legs trampling the heavens!!
Boom!!!
The ground shattered, as if hit by a cannonball.
A circular depression ten ters wide appeared, the solid stone beneath the square turned to powder, revealing red soil.
But Lu Xinglong suddenly appeared behind the Giant Elephant Grandmaster, his eyes deep, pointing a finger at the back of his head.
"Not good!"
The Whale Sect grandmaster saw the danger, his expression changing, wanting to intervene.
Roar!!!
The gray-robed old man in the aircraft suddenly descended on a dragon, blocking him.
Seeing this, everyone's expressions changed.
The Giant Elephant Grandmaster on the stage also looked grim, only able to mobilize his energy, strengthening his bones, preparing to take the hit.
But.
"It's over..."
As if foreseeing this, Lu Xinglong's expression was indifferent, his finger following the back of the Giant Elephant Grandmaster's head like a shadow.
In that instant, seeing the blue light gathering at the tip of his finger.
The people below finally snapped out of it, and Zhang Tai and Pang Kui widened their eyes in shock.
At the critical mont.
Whoosh!!!!
A streak of white light mixed with gold suddenly descended from the sky, parting the sea of clouds, blocking the sun, and falling to the earth.
At the sa ti, in the corridor.
A burly figure wearing a sunshade mask leaped over the wooden railing, flipping out.
Black-green and dark gold rapidly grew, like the strongest tal in the world.
Whoosh!!
Blood-patterned wings spread out, and the next mont.
The black-green and dark gold horned figure had already crossed the sky, arriving within half a ter of Lu Xinglong!
