Chapter 189: Chapter 187: The New Heavenly Pride
Boom Boom Boom!
Waves of fierce combat fluctuations swept across the heaven, drowning the void in brilliant light. Ten Heavenly Pride Arenas witnessed earth-shattering battles, firmly captivating the eyes of the spectators.
This could be regarded as the pinnacle confrontation of the young generation in Black Dragon Country, absolutely spectacular, and no one wanted to miss it.
"How frustrating, I was just a bit short of stepping onto the Heavenly Pride Arena."
Outside the Imperial Palace, on the plaza, young martial artists who stopped at the first trial grimaced in frustration, yelling in grief and anger. They aspired to ascend to the dazzling battlefield in the heavens and become the center of attention.
But now it was all too late.
Those young talents who ranked in the top ten in the first trial, each with extraordinary strength, showed no mercy to those who dared to challenge them. The young martial artists who had just ascended the arena were blasted down in just a few breaths.
Each person had only one chance to challenge; being blasted down meant defeat.
"Charge!"
Below the Heavenly Pride Arena, young martial artists overflowed with battle intent, transforming into new challengers, launching attacks on the Ten Great Talents, wave after wave, creating a spectacular view.
"The Crazy Pride, Xue Zhan is so strong, definitely has the strength of Second Class Innate Limit, challengers can’t last more than two moves against him."
"The Silver Hair Heavenly Pride isn’t weak either!"
"Is this really the strength of our Black Dragon Country’s young generation? It’s too strong! I’d give up decades of my life to become like them!"
Residents around the Imperial City, with faces full of envy, looked up at the battlefield in the heavens and discussed vigorously the performances of the ten young talents.
Xiao Ye’s eyes burst with light; immense Innate True Qi operated, and the Perfection Level Silent Annihilation Hand was unleashed.
Boom Boom Boom!
The palm filled with the aura of annihilation swept invincibly, piercing through the void, blasting one challenger after another.
"Perfection Level Fifth Grade Combat Technique!"
Seeing Xiao Ye’s Silent Annihilation Hand, many spectators exclaimed, filled with shock.
The highest-grade combat technique that an Innate Martial Artist could cultivate was the Fifth Grade, and cultivating it to the Perfection Level was extremely difficult.
"Wang Lin’s talent is terrifying, truly worthy of the Independent Practitioner Genius!" someone said in admiration.
"Hmm?" The Vice Sect Leader of Chongyang Sect furrowed his brows.
In his memory, Xiao Ye had used the Silent Annihilation Hand during the Direct Disciples Competition, and it had also reached the Perfection Level!
"Could this be a coincidence?"
The Vice Sect Leader of Chongyang Sect stared at Xiao Ye’s figure, his unyielding, arrogant demeanor making him feel increasingly familiar.
"This... impossible!" The Vice Sect Leader of Chongyang Sect shook his head, dismissing the thought that rose in his heart.
If Wang Lin was indeed Xiao Ye, whom he had expelled from the sect, then wasn’t his public invitation for Xiao Ye to join Chongyang Sect last night a slap to his own face? How could he maintain such self-respect?
"Hmph, whether you are Xiao Ye or not, Qian’er will kill you!" The Vice Sect Leader of Chongyang Sect’s gaze turned icy.
"King, I didn’t expect that the Chongyang Sect could nurture such an outstanding female disciple," said the National Guardian General, admiring Bing Ya from above the heavens.
With her face covered with a light veil, Bing Ya’s aura was sanctimoniously breathtaking. Any young martial artist attacking her would be numbed with cold before even getting close and would easily be swatted away by Bing Ya.
"It’s strange, there seems to be something unfathomable about this female disciple of Chongyang Sect." The King’s eyes flickered as he muttered to himself.
Hearing this, the National Guardian General gasped in shock. Even the King couldn’t see through Bing Ya? This was too sensational.
...
The Ten Great Talents stood like towering mountains, while the challengers were like moths to a flame, using their strongest strike in their only chance, only to be blasted away.
Standing aloof on the first arena, Crown Prince Long Chen looked indifferently, as if the Ten Great Talents were unworthy of his attention, not even qualifying to move him.
And the challengers knew their place; none dared to attack Long Chen, recognizing it as a futile effort.
As the top figure among Black Dragon Country’s young generation, how could he be challenged at will?
After three hours, over eight hundred challengers had failed, and the Ten Great Talents were starting to show signs of flagging; this method of defending the arena was too draining, even they couldn’t bear it.
"Humph, the position among the Ten Great Talents belongs to me!" At this moment, a short-haired young man emerged with a grim smile, his body exploding with strength as he charged toward one of the young talents.
Boom Boom Boom!
Just at the onset of the battle, the short-haired young man unleashed immense power, gradually suppressing the young talent.
"That short-haired young man is called Zhang Cheng, ranked twelfth in the first trial, and he actually waited until now to make his move!" exclaimed someone in the crowd.
A hundred moves later, Zhang Cheng seized an opportunity and smashed the young talent down from the Heavenly Pride Arena.
Zhang Cheng replaced the other party and became one of the new Ten Great Talents, attracting the attention of thousands.
"Haha, I never thought I, Zhang Cheng, would have such a day!" The short-haired youth Zhang Cheng stood on the Heavenly Pride Arena, his body surging with an astonishing aura, his Innate True Qi not even yet perfected.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of the other Young Talents grew ugly as they started cursing.
"Truly shameless!"
"Thinking you can become one of the Ten Great Young Talents? Better roll down yourself!"
However, Zhang Cheng smirked proudly and said, "It doesn’t matter what methods I use, as long as I can stand on the Heavenly Pride Arena, then I am one of the Ten Great Young Talents, and even the King has nothing to say."
"This guy’s skin is thicker than the city walls!"
Angry curses arose in the Imperial City, showing disdain for Zhang Cheng’s actions. The real Young Talents, how could they take advantage when someone is down?
"Haha, Zhang Hu is successful, it’s our time to make a move!" Suddenly, a group of Young Martial Artists burst out laughing wildly and stepped out from the crowd, rushing towards the Heavenly Pride Arena.
"Zhu Hongtao, Li Dahai, Wu Ze... They are all Young Martial Artists who ranked in the top twenty in the first round of the test!" The crowd buzzed with surprise.
There were too many people attacking the arena earlier. Who noticed that these individuals were hiding in the crowd without making a move?
It’s clear what these people wanted, to let others go first, drain the strength of the Ten Great Young Talents, and then take their place.
"This spells trouble for the Ten Great Young Talents," the crowd murmured, looking towards the Heavenly Pride Arena above the skies.
Xiao Ye looked down and a smirk of mockery appeared, "These people are not stupid, but if they think they can knock me down like this, they’re going to be disappointed."
Thud!
A short-statured youth with a freckled face who looked as mighty as a Roc, soared straight up to Xiao Ye’s arena.
"Hehe, Independent Practitioner Genius, your performance is really eye-catching. If I defeat you, I can probably win the hearts of many women," said the freckled youth with a sleazy laugh, seemingly envisioning the glory of knocking Xiao Ye down.
Xiao Ye heard this and rolled his eyes, wondering if this guy is here to be a joke? With such a face, it’d be hard to attract any woman.
"Independent Practitioner Genius, remember, the person who defeats you is called Li Dahai!" The freckled youth sneered wickedly and threw a Direct Punch towards Xiao Ye’s face.
"Scram!"
Xiao Ye felt utterly disgusted. He was too lazy to even make a move, and directly exploded with seventy percent of his Flame True Intent. Blooms of Flame Lotus burst forth with terrifying power, striking against the freckled youth’s fist.
"Ah! It’s burning, damn it!" The freckled youth looked in horror at his charred fist as he was blasted backward, spewing blood from his mouth.
He probably never imagined that after such intense battles for the arena, Xiao Ye still had such formidable strength.
Boom boom boom!
Ten Heavenly Pride Arenas erupted into fierce battles once again, reaching a climax. Many hidden and previously inactive Young Martial Artists began to emerge, seizing this rare opportunity to become one of the Ten Great Talents.
"Ah! Scram!"
"If you want to replace me, you’d better see if you have the capability!"
Several of the Heavenly Prides roared angrily, very aware that as long as they withstand this final assault, they could participate in the Ultimate Supreme Battle!
Among the Ten Great Young Talents, only Jiang Yunfan, Xue Zhan, and He Wudao felt quite relaxed, as their strength had reached the Second-Class Innate Limit. Despite significant exhaustion, they were not something ordinary Young Martial Artists could match.
As for Xiao Ye, just his cultivation alone allowed him to compare with people like Xue Zhan, and he also felt quite relaxed.
"My senior sister’s strength has also reached the Second-Class Innate Limit," Xiao Ye remarked while facing his challengers and keeping an eye on Bing Ya.
Feeling relieved that Bing Ya was safe, he fully focused on fighting his opponent.
Two hours later, the last wave of fierce assaults gradually subsided. Two of the Ten Great Talents were replaced; nonetheless, their strength was also quite formidable.
"Haha!" The two youths who successfully climbed to the position of the Ten Great Talents laughed excitedly. Being able to stand at this position now, even if bearing infamy, was no concern to them.
"Huh? Zhao Qian has actually held on?" Xiao Ye looked around and was filled with surprise.
Among the Ten Great Talents, Zhao Qian was supposed to be the weakest, and the easiest to replace.
"It looks like his Xuanwu Realm father must have given him some trump cards," Xiao Ye coldly smirked.
In his eyes, Zhao Qian was no longer qualified to be his opponent.
"Zhao Qian, it seems like even heaven is helping me, letting me thrash you again in the Youth Supreme Battle," Xiao Ye murmured to himself.
After Xiao Ye withdrew his gaze, Zhao Qian’s icy look turned towards Xiao Ye, and a cold smirk emerged on his lips.
The arena gradually quieted down, the crowd looking up in anticipation at the Ten Great Young Talents and at Long Chen, who had yet to make a move, their faces full of excitement. The upcoming Youth Supreme Battle was the real peak confrontation they were eagerly awaiting.
They were very curious to know the extent of Long Chen’s strength, the leading young individual of the Black Dragon Country. This was what they most looked forward to.
After all, who could become the other four Young Supremes?
