Lin Chen and Wang Hao's auras silently clashed in a tug-of-war of wills.
The entire canteen was quiet, everyone watching the two without turning their gaze away.
Wang Zixuan clenched her fists nervously, and although she knew Lin Chen was not weak, Wang Hao was an advanced practitioner of the Yunhai realm!
Now she even sowhat regretted her capricious behavior that had brought trouble to Lin Chen.
Zhang Yu and the others were also tensely watching the confrontation, sweating for Lin Chen.
Xiao Hu wore a cold smile, watching the struggle between Lin Chen and Wang Hao. Originally, he thought this confrontation would end quickly, but unexpectedly, it lasted much longer.
His gaze toward Lin Chen carried a playful expression, as Xiao Hu finally realized this guy he had once looked down upon was definitely not just at the level of the Yuandan realm; he must have hidden his true cultivation.
At this mont, a faint vortex seed to arise in the air between Lin Chen and Wang Hao.
Everyone knew that their competition had reached an intense stage.
However, everyone was shocked that Lin Chen could actually hold his own against Wang Hao.
After all, Lin Chen was only a practitioner at the Yuandan realm, how could he possibly contend with Wang Hao.
Most believed that the ultimate victor between the two would definitely be Wang Hao.
After all, Wang Hao was a high-level practitioner of the Yunhai realm, and ranked first on the Qing List.
But even though everyone favored Wang Hao, he himself was having a difficult ti.
The domineering aura of Lin Chen made him extrely uncomfortable, constantly pressuring him, to the point where he was having difficulty catching his breath.
In the beginning, Wang Hao had managed to hold on through sheer strength, but ultimately under Lin Chen's persistent pressure, Wang Hao couldn't hold on any longer.
"Pfft!" A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Wang Hao's face imdiately turned pale.
"How is this possible!"
Everyone was astonished to see Wang Hao vomiting blood.
In their eyes, for Wang Hao to suppress Lin Chen was nothing but a simple task, but no one expected the one spitting blood to actually be Wang Hao, the one favored by all.
Wang Hao's face showed a strange expression as he wiped the blood from his mouth, "So you've been hiding your cultivation, kid."
Lin Chen smiled faintly: "I'm just being modest, unlike so who proclaim themselves as experts wherever they go."
Wang Hao glared at Lin Chen with resentnt and said coldly: "Kid, this isn't over. You just wait."
At this mont, Xiao Hu's expression beca more solemn. Initially, he hadn't seen Lin Chen, a practitioner of the Yuandan realm, as a competitor at all.
But it was only after the recent confrontation between Lin Chen and Wang Hao that he realized Lin Chen was his most formidable opponent.
Out of curiosity, Xiao Hu sent a strand of his Divine Sense into Lin Chen's body.
He wanted to know Lin Chen's true cultivation level, but such behavior was extrely offensive, even rude, to the person being probed.
Xiao Hu thought he was doing it unnoticed, but as soon as his Divine Sense entered, Lin Chen detected it.
A hint of cold smile crossed Lin Chen's lips as a surge of purple fla True Fire instantly enshrouded the invading Divine Sense within his body.
"Aaah!" Accompanied by a scream, Xiao Hu's Divine Sense instantly dissipated into nothingness, bringing a sharp pain to his mind.
Actually, Lin Chen had just shown rcy. Had he counterattacked, he could have easily turned Xiao Hu into a cripple.
It took a while for Xiao Hu to recover from the intense pain, his eyes now filled with a hint of awe as he looked at Lin Chen.
"You!" Xiao Hu pointed at Lin Chen, his eyes filled with hatred.
Lin Chen's gaze was icy: "This is just a warning. If there's a next ti, I guarantee you will lose both mind and spirit."
"Good, you're doing great," Xiao Hu pointed at Lin Chen and stord off angrily.
Everyone in the canteen watched Lin Chen with their eyes wide and their mouths agape. Was this kid incredible or what? In a blink, he had made both the first and second rankers on the Green List suffer a loss. It seems this young man, who appears weak, is definitely soone who plays the pig to eat the tiger.
"Lin bro, you're so aweso. Just what is your actual strength?" Zhang Yu curiously asked.
"I think it's better if I don't say it, to avoid shocking you all," Lin Chen said with a smile.
"No worries, we can handle it," the others chid in.
These people had a good relationship with Lin Chen, so he didn't continue to hide it and said, "I'm in the middle stage of the Cloud Sea Realm."
"My goodness!"
Upon hearing Lin Chen's true level of cultivation, they were all incredibly shocked.
Zhang Yu forced a bitter smile, "I've been in closed-door cultivation recently, even consuming an Immortal Pill, and still, my cultivation speed is not as fast as yours."
Lin Chen patted Zhang Yu on the shoulder and smiled faintly, "If you want to surpass , you still need to work harder, you know."
At this mont, Wang Zixuan ca over with a blush on her face: "Thanks for just now!"
"Lin Chen, it suddenly occurred to
that the four of us should go to the martial arts training ground for a session, you and Miss Zixuan can talk first."
Seeing Wang Zixuan, the others tactfully moved aside.
Lin Chen secretly gave a thumbs up to his friends. They really were good brothers!
After they left, Lin Chen smiled and said, "Zixuan, I arrived late just now and almost let those two jerks take advantage of you."
But Wang Zixuan wasn't buying it: "Hmph, just now you took advantage of , claiming in front of everyone that you had kissed ."
"But I stated the facts!" Lin Chen said with a laugh.
"Is that a fact?" Wang Zixuan suddenly reached out and fiercely pinched Lin Chen's waist.
"I'm wrong, I'm wrong," Lin Chen quickly begged for rcy.
Only then did Wang Zixuan let go of Lin Chen, speaking softly, "Follow
to the back mountain."
"I've heard there are a lot of restrictions in the back mountain," Lin Chen spoke as he walked.
"What, are you scared?" teased Wang Zixuan.
"Scared! When has Lin Chen ever been afraid?" Lin Chen huffed and took the lead in stepping into the back mountain.
"You... are you out of your mind? Running around rashly will trigger the restrictions!" Wang Zixuan's face changed as she saw Lin Chen charging right in.
She had planned to lead Lin Chen there, but she didn't expect him to charge in so recklessly.
However, Lin Chen seed to not hear Wang Zixuan's words, as he agilely leapt along the mountain path.
"How is this possible!" Seeing Lin Chen break through the Formation to the back mountain, Wang Zixuan was instantly dumbfounded.
One must know that the back mountain's Formation is the Five Elents Qin Formation, and even high-ranked cultivators in the Cloud Sea Realm would find it hard to get through without understanding the mysteries of the Formation.
But Lin Chen just hopped over so easily, it was truly beyond belief.
Following through the Five Elents Qin Formation, Wang Zixuan arrived at the back mountain, looking at Lin Chen in shock, "Our Formation is the protective grand Formation of the sect, how did you break through it!"
Lin Chen smiled, "Your husband here is versed in both the heavens and the earth. How could a re Qin Five Elents Formation ever stump ."
Inside his Divine Sense, the handso system protested, "Master, you're shaless. It was
who helped you break the Formation."
Ignoring the protest from the system, Lin Chen, Lin Chen looked into the distance as a red sun slowly set, painting the entire sky red with sunset.
Lin Chen smiled faintly, "With such a beautiful evening scene, Zixuan, I bet you didn't just invite
here to chat!"
