"Gu Chen?"

On hearing this, the disciples from Ten Thousand Stars Palace and Unrestrained Sect, as well as the other young cultivators spectating nearby, immediately had puzzled expressions.

However, the leading cultivator from Ten Thousand Stars Palace soon snapped coldly, "I don’t care who you are, whether you’re Gu Bai or something Gu Chen, provoking Ten Thousand Stars Palace means death either way!"

Although Gu Chen had displayed amazing combat achievements during the selection battles, this leader from Ten Thousand Stars Palace still held absolute confidence in his own capabilities.

After all, he had already alerted a large contingent of reinforcements from Ten Thousand Stars Palace nearby, believing that help would soon arrive.

Gu Chen naturally guessed this as well, but he still showed no sign of fear.

Having already made an enemy of Ten Thousand Stars Palace, killing one was the same as killing two in his eyes—there was no difference.

But Xueyu’s expression changed; she knew well the might of Ten Thousand Stars Palace and did not want Gu Chen to wade into murky waters because of her. She said, "Let’s just leave, please."

After all, Ten Thousand Stars Palace is one of only twelve Great Undying Dao Clans in the higher realms, bursting with prodigious talents and powerful in numbers. If their chief were to come here, Xueyu worried that Gu Chen might be endangered.

She tugged at the corner of Gu Chen’s robe, signaling they should leave now to avoid further complications.

"What, scared now? But it’s already too late!" the leader from Ten Thousand Stars Palace scoffed. "Let me tell you plainly, I’ve already informed the chief. It won’t be long before he gets here. I’d like to see how arrogant you can be then. With a mere wave of his hand, you’ll be reduced to a puddle of flesh!"

The two from Unrestrained Sect added fuel to the fire, proudly smiling, "We must also inform you that our sect’s senior brother is here too. With these two peerless monsters arriving together, you might as well kneel and beg for mercy—it won’t make any difference!"

"The chief of Ten Thousand Stars Palace and the senior brother from Unrestrained Sect are both coming?!" Upon hearing this, the surrounding cultivators were equally shocked.

The chief of Ten Thousand Stars Palace was the most dazzling figure among the young generation in the higher realms, revered by countless elites; he was effectively beyond compare. In his presence, any so-called genius would pale in comparison and could not be mentioned in the same breath.

Only a few people in the higher realms could possibly rival him.

Although Gu Chen was strong, in their view, he was still quite far from that level.

After all, this was the strongest disciple of a Great Undying Dao Clan, nurtured with extraordinary resources and his own exceptional talent, his strength was unimaginable!

And Gu Chen, they had heard, previously only had a full circle cultivation in the Huanxu Realm. Now, no matter how strong he had become, he was at most in the early to mid stages of the Unity Realm. How could he possibly stand up to the chief of Ten Thousand Stars Palace in the late stages of the Unity Realm?

Not to mention, there was also the senior brother from Unrestrained Sect, who was not an easy opponent either, only slightly less formidable than the chief of Ten Thousand Stars Palace. In the higher realms, he too was regarded as one of the top talents.

"This Gu Chen probably really can’t manage an outcome now," a cultivator whispered, a glint of anticipation in his eyes.

This anticipation was naturally for that rumored chief of Ten Thousand Stars Palace, a dragon seen only at its head, rarely sighted on normal days.

Many shook their heads inwardly, even Xueyu was somewhat panicked, urging Gu Chen to hurry and leave with her.

It wasn’t that Gu Chen wasn’t strong enough, but the name of a Great Undying Dao Clan was too formidable, dominating over all forces in the three thousand six hundred realms from the ancient times until now!

Moreover, regarding that chief of Ten Thousand Stars Palace, some news had circulated in the higher realms before. Some old persons at the same level of late Unity Realm barely managed to exchange ten moves with him!

It was said that even the Great Powers of Heavenly Realm could confront him, yet he would remain unbeaten over a short duration!

Such exceptional battle achievements naturally framed him as increasingly formidable.

"Let’s leave quickly!" Xueyu’s brow furrowed with worry that Gu Chen might meet an accident because of her, and she would feel eternally guilty.

"Leave? I’d like to see where you can go!" The six from Ten Thousand Stars Palace and Unrestrained Sect sneered, encircling Gu Chen and Xueyu.

As long as they could delay them momentarily, reinforcements would arrive, and by then, they planned to make Gu Chen kneel and weep bitterly, begging for their mercy.

"Have you forgotten one thing?" At this moment, Gu Chen said calmly and slowly.

"Hm?"

At his words, everyone was momentarily stunned, not understanding what he meant.

Gu Chen’s eyes roved as he surveyed the surroundings, "Regardless of how strong the so-called chief of Ten Thousand Stars Palace and your senior brother are, they are them. What does that have to do with you?"

"What do you mean?" The people from Ten Thousand Stars Palace and Unrestrained Sect frowned, not grasping what Gu Chen was trying to express.

Seeing this, Gu Chen shook his head, feeling that these people’s comprehension was really poor and that he had to spell it out in detail.

"What I mean is, even if you have reinforcements coming, how can you be sure you can hold out until they arrive? Are you really that confident in yourselves?"

"You..." The six from Ten Thousand Stars Palace and Unrestrained Sect heard Gu Chen mocking them and immediately darkened in expression, wanting to shout at him.

But at that moment, Gu Chen made his move!

Thud!

He lifted his foot high and then slammed it down violently onto the ground. Even though this ancient city was protected by formations, it couldn’t help but tremble continuously for a moment, as if it were about to completely collapse.
