On the field, the expressions of the Sect Leaders varied. Xiao Rou gave a slight smile and soon spoke to Li Changfeng next to her:
"Pavilion Master Li, you have truly taught a good disciple!"
Li Changfeng laughed lightly upon hearing this and said:
"It's nothing! You all know well in your hearts that the efforts of outer disciples depend solely on themselves. We haven't provided any help, it's all his personal endeavor!"
Zhang Tianyuan of the Kaiyuan Sect also chuckled and said:
"Old Brother Changfeng, do not be modest. Lin Chen's extraordinary talent is evident to all of us. I fear that this ti, the ranking will see your Heavenly Sword Pavilion garnering good positions!"
"Haha, co now! Sect Master Zhang, your Kaiyuan Sect's Yun Tianxing is also a good seedling and can manage a second-level Array Plate at this stage. Even though it's incomplete, it's enough to show off his capabilities!"
While listening to the few praising each other, Li Yaoyang's expression was indeed not looking very good.
Because in the recent battle, Ning Yan initially overestimated himself and got tricked by the Demon Fla Black-armored Bear, making him lose the ability to participate in the siege against the bear. Later, he went beyond his ability to try and stop Lin Chen, resulting in him almost dying, which was a complete embarrassnt for him, and naturally Li Yaoyang felt disgraced as well.
He snorted coldly and said:
"Just a boy picking up scraps, nothing worth praising!"
Seeing Li Yan's displeased face, Xiao Rou and Zhang Tianyuan tactfully refrained from speaking further, but Li Changfeng was not afraid and coldly retorted:
"Even picking up scraps requires real skill, otherwise Lin Chen would probably be in the sa severely injured state now, wouldn't he?"
Li Changfeng's words had underlying aning, mocking Ning Yan for overestimating himself and ending up seriously injured. Li Yaoyang was not foolish and naturally understood his implication, but he couldn't think of a coback, so he just snorted coldly and then looked at the giant water screen.
Seeing this, everyone ceased their discussion and quietly watched the situation on the field.
There are five hours left until the competition ends!
In the valley, the atmosphere suddenly beca sowhat gloomy.
Yun Tianxing and Xuan Yan originally planned to pursue Lin Chen, but before they could set off, Lin Chen's figure had already disappeared far away, so fast that even they couldn't catch up.
After Lin Chen left, the group was unsure what to do for a mont. Finally, Yun Tianxing regained his senses first; he frowned at the distant corpse of the Demon Fla Black-armored Bear, glanced around, and said:
"Everyone, Lin Chen was too quick, and the jade slip and demon core were taken by him. I contributed the most in this siege of the bear, so don't compete with
for the remaining corpse materials!"
"Hmph! Didn't I contribute greatly as well? If I hadn't risked myself, how would the Demon Fla Black-armored Bear have entered your formation!?"
Upon hearing Yun Tianxing wanting to monopolize the bear's corpse, Xuan Yan expressed his opinions too.
At this mont, Qin Wan gave them a cold glance, and only then did Yun Tianxing and Xuan Yan realize that although Lin Chen was gone, Qin Wan was still around! If she wanted to take action, they really might not be able to contend with her!
Yet Qin Wan just gave them a cold look without saying anything, and under the puzzled gazes of the two, she rose into the air and soon left the area.
In mid-air, feeling the strong mountain wind blowing against her face, Qin Wan murmured softly:
"Lin Chen, is it? I did underestimate you! That soul power intensity probably reached the Xuan level, right? If I didn't know a bit about your background, I would suspect you might have been possessed by so old monster! Xuan level soul power, quite the talent! But rest assured, we'll et again!"
The remaining disciples from the Luoshui Sect glanced at each other and then followed suit, while the heavily injured Ning Yan had already left under the cover of other Sunlight Sect disciples, leaving only Yun Tianxing, Xuan Yan, and the others on the field.
Seeing this, Xuan Yan beca sowhat indifferent and said to Yun Tianxing:
"Give
half of the materials from the Demon Fla Black-armored Bear's claws, the rest is yours!"
Not discussing the division of materials between Yun Tianxing and Xuan Yan for now, Lin Chen was still dashing away.
Worried about the pursuit of others, he maintained high-speed movent. Although he hadn't sensed any pursuers yet, he still didn't let his guard down.
After flying for a while longer, Lin Chen noticed that the divine essence in his ridians was nearing exhaustion, so he found a hidden spot to land, then located a cave and laid out a few simple formations at its entrance. With a flip of his hand, a round demon core and a square jade slip appeared in his hand.
Looking at the jade slip emitting a faint golden glow, Lin Chen felt a bit curious:
"Is this the jade slip of a half-step divine level mythical beast? The color seems different, it should be sothing good!"
After playing with it for a bit, Lin Chen put away the jade slip and then carefully examined the demon core.
The demon core was round, showing a faint black-red hue. Even before consuming, it emitted a continuous violent aura, and the plentiful power within was quite tempting.
However, Lin Chen knew it wasn't ti to consu it yet. The power contained in the demon core of a half-step divine being was evidently imnse and violent, clearly not suitable for him to consu now.
After putting away the demon core, Lin Chen felt very satisfied.
This ti, the four major sects joined forces to hunt the Demon Fla Black-armored Bear, but unexpectedly, the praying mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. They expended effort, even deploying reserves, finally taking down the bear, but in the end, handed Lin Chen a great gift, obtaining the most precious item in this competition with little effort. Moreover, Lin Chen also defeated Qin Wan and heavily injured Ning Yan, so hopefully, no one with poor judgnt would provoke him anymore.
Thinking of Qin Wan, Lin Chen reflected inwardly:
"That Qin Wan certainly has so skill; her soul power intensity reached the high-level of the Yellow tier, quite strong, likely no one besides
on the field can match her! Yet even I can't fully exert my soul power, otherwise, it might draw the attention of so individuals!"
Although Lin Chen's soul power was strong, it certainly was his biggest secret and couldn't be exposed under everyone's gaze. After all, possessing such powerful soul power at the fifth level of the Divine Warrior stage, anyone with common sense would know Lin Chen must have had an unusual encounter.
