Everyone’s heart skipped a beat!
Among the six people, other than Qiu Laocheng from the Juewu Sect, Ji Siqing, and Elder Zheng, one of the judges was from the Cyan Phoenix sect…
Daoist Nanming!
Not only was Daoist Nanming’s cultivation level terrifying, but his mastery of alchemy was also heaven-defying!
This was the reason why he was chosen to be the judge this time, and he was definitely a veteran.
At this moment, Daoist Nanming’s face was livid with rage. Under his watch a disciple of the Cyan Phoenix sect was killed for no reason. This was an outright provocation!
Luo Huan hurriedly bowed and called out, “Elder Nanming, you must uphold justice for us. This person’s killing intent is too strong and he has disregarded the rules. He should be severely punished! Otherwise, the dead disciple of the Cyan Phoenix sect would have died in vain!”
Daoist Nanming nodded. His furious gaze shot toward Ye Chen as his boundless spiritual pressure condensed.
“How dare you, Ye Chen! You’ve openly violated the rules and killed an innocent person! Today, on behalf of the countless sects present, I will personally suppress you!”
Sensing the spiritual pressure rushing toward Ye Chen, Little Gold suddenly woke up, stretched its body and stood up.
A formless energy seeped out of its body and enveloped Ye Chen, making him immune to the spiritual pressure.
Little Gold’s bloodline was extremely special. Even if it had not matured, it was considered royalty, and would never bow to others.
Ye Chen initially wanted to resist the pressure, but when he sensed Little Gold’s power, he was shocked.
Could it be that it could ignore all spiritual pressure?
If that was really the case, then he had obtained a true blessing!
Daoist Nanming continued to exert his spiritual pressure on Ye Chen. He thought that Ye Chen would kneel immediately, but soon realized that Ye Chen seemed to be fine!
How was this possible?
His cultivation level was powerful enough to crush most of the people present but why was this trashy brat from the Medical God sect perfectly fine?
In fact, Daoist Nanming’s face was flushed red as he continued to pour out spiritual pressure on Ye Chen. It looked a little embarrassing.
Ji Siqing wanted to take action, but when she saw Ye Chen calmly dispel Daoist Nanming’s spiritual pressure, a hint of curiosity appeared in her eyes.
How was this possible?
Could it be that this kid really had some fortuitous encounter?
C«u Laocheng naturally noticed the problem and gave Daoist Nanming a way
“Daoist Nanming, what Ye Chen did was indeed against the rules. Instead of making him kneel, why don’t we suppress this kid first and torture him? I think that’s a better way of dealing with him.”
Daoist Nanming retracted his spiritual pressure and looked at Ye Chen with a slightly dazed gaze. He snorted and nodded, “You ‘re right. Men, suppress this brat!”
Seeing several origin realm cultivators approaching him, Ye Chen was about to draw his sword when Ji Siqing suddenly stood in front of him!
Everyone’s expressions changed drastically!
This scene had f*cking happened again!
Five or six years ago, that good-for-nothing had been kicked off the stage by Jiang Huai. After that, Jiang Huai had wanted to kill him, but Ji Siqing had stood in his way and protected him.
At this moment, history was repeating itself.
Ji Siqing!” Daoist Nanming’s expression was very ugly.
“Are you challenging my authority? I know your relationship with this piece of trash, but remember your identity. You are a judge! How can everyone trust the judges if you use your status for personal reasons?”
Ji Siqing’s expression was indifferent as she said, “Since you know that we’re judges, why did you try to deal with Ye Chen without discussing it with everyone? Isn’t this against the rules as well?”
“You!” Daoist Nanming’s expression grew increasingly unsightly.
“Ji Siqing, this is only your first time being a judge. When I started being a judge here, you were not even born yet. In terms of talent, I was better than you were too! Get out of the way. If you don’t, I’ll deal with you too!”
Qiu Laocheng, who was beside Ji Siqing, quickly said, “Siqing, don’t be stupid. This kid is indeed in the wrong! If he was not dealt with, it would be difficult to appease the public!”
“I know you’re friends with Ye Chen, but you have to think for yourself too. You
can help him once, but you can’t help him forever.”
H Siqing glanced at Qju Luocheng.
Then, she said to Daoist Nanming, “I already have a rough understanding of this incident thanks to my sister. The outer sect disciple of the Cyan Phoenix sect attacked the Medical God sect for no reason, and even tried to kill one of them. As for Ye Chen, he did not intend to kill anyone when he attacked. Unfortunately, this outer sect disciple was too useless and even managed to get himself killed despite using a sword against a fist. Someone like that would not survive long in the Kunlun Mountains anyway!”
When Luo Huan and Jiang Huai heard this, they were so angry that their eyes nearly popped out.
Too useless?
Daoist Nanming was about to speak when Elder Zheng decided to intervene to smooth things over.
“The competition has already begun. If we continue to argue like this, time will be wasted. The remaining genius candidates are waiting for us.”
Since we won’t be able to resolve this anytime soon, why don’t we use the competition to do so? We will temporarily change the rules a little and have the Medical God sect and the Cyan Phoenix sect fight. No matter who wins or loses that will be the final result, and there will be no more disputes outside the arena.”
When Ji Siqing heard this proposal, she put away her sword and said, “I have no objections.”
What else could Daoist Nanming say?
With a wave of his sleeve, he said, “Very well! The Kunlun Mountains have
always decided things by strength. This solution is viable.”
“But I hope that some of the referees will not have any selfish motives. Blindly protecting others would only land themselves in hot soup!”
This sentence was obviously meant for Ji Siqing.
However, Ji Siqing ignored him. She patted Ye Chen and gave him a look. Then, she stepped lightly on the ground and returned to the judges’ seats.
The six of them took their seats again, and everything returned to normal.
As he had wasted too much time, Elder Zheng simply read out some rules and began the elimination process.
After all, 75o people was too many, so at least two rounds would be needed to cut the numbers to less than 200.
For the sake of fairness, they drew lots. However, there was one exception.
The Medical God sect and the Cyan Phoenix sect!
They would go head to head until one of them was eliminated.
Ye Chen was the only representative of the Medical God sect, while the Cyan
Phoenix sect had four representatives.
Other than Jiang Huai and Luo Huan, there were two other talented disciples.
In other words, Ye Chen had to eliminate at least four people before he was qualified to advance. This seemed very disadvantageous to Ye Chen.
Putting aside his strength, even if Ye Chen was lucky enough to win, he would have to fight repeated battles. Therefore, no one thought highly of his chances even if he had killed one of the sect’s outer sect disciples with a single punch. ’ After all, that outer sect disciple and these four genius disciples were not on the same level at all.
Among them, Jiang Huai and Luo Huan were popular candidates to enter the top 30!
