Supreme Lord of Towers

”My goodness! Ye Chen actually avoided Lv Bai’s Golden-winged Spirit Eagle; how could he be so fast?” Around the Zodiac Battle Platform, the eyes of the onlooking freshmen widened in disbelief.

They really couldn’t understand how Ye Chen could burst out with such astonishing speed.

In general, only by awakening a powerful bloodline or mastering a strong body technique can a cultivator’s speed be greatly enhanced.

But Ye Chen couldn’t even awaken his bloodline, and he was only cultivating a lower-grade Yellow Level body technique. Logically, he couldn’t possess such terrifying speed.

Yet the scene before them completely overturned their imaginations.

”Damn it, how could this trash avoid it?” At the top of the Observation Platform, Duanmu Jie’s face turned extremely grim, filled with intense anger.

He originally thought that as long as Lv Bai unleashed the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle bloodline, he could easily crush Ye Chen, this trash, to death.

After all, the attack of the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle reached the power of thirty tigers, how could Ye Chen, this trash, withstand it?

But now, Ye Chen had successfully dodged Lv Bai’s attack, and his speed was so fast that even Duanmu Jie was somewhat stunned.

This had already begun to slip out of Duanmu Jie’s control.

”Ye Chen, why are you, this trash, still struggling? Wouldn’t it be better to just die like this? The more you struggle, the more painful your death will be in the future.” Even Ye Lin’Er, her beautiful face now covered with a thick frost, had eyes full of rage.

Why? Every time she thought Ye Chen was going to be killed, he managed to escape from danger?

Could it really be so difficult to kill this trash who couldn’t even awaken his bloodline?

”Ye Chen, you sure dodge quickly, but I want to see how long you can keep dodging. Once I hit you, you will undoubtedly die.” Above the Zodiac Battle Platform, Lv Bai, after a brief shock, regained his calm, speaking in a cold tone.

Although even he was somewhat surprised by Ye Chen’s speed.

However, he had awakened the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle bloodline, possessing not only exceptionally strong attack power but also much faster speed than ordinary cultivators.

He simply couldn’t believe that Ye Chen could evade his attacks forever.

Screech.

The next moment, that Golden-winged Spirit Eagle opened its wings again, stretching six or seven zhang long, instantly flying over Ye Chen’s head, its massive body covering the blazing sun in the sky.

Crackle.

Subsequently, Lv Bai frantically injected his True Qi into the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle above, causing its body to emit dazzling golden light, like a blinding little sun.

At this moment, the power of the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle increased significantly, reaching the power of thirty-five tigers.

Even its speed received a considerable boost, instantly leaving an afterimage in the sky, extending two extremely sharp golden claws, diving down at Ye Chen beneath.

Woo woo woo.

Because the speed of the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle was so fast, the air it passed through emitted a remarkably piercing rumbling sound, stirring up a terrifying whirlwind.

In a flash, the eagle’s claws were only four or five zhang away from Ye Chen, seemingly capable of tearing his body to pieces.

”A tiger’s wrath not shown might be mistaken for a sick cat. Do you truly think this is all my strength? Twenty-five Qi Seas, burst forth!” At this moment, an ominous light suddenly shot out from Ye Chen’s eyes.

Crackle.

The next moment, an immensely violent True Qi surged from Ye Chen’s body like raging waves, instantly coalescing into five incredibly sharp sword auras, simultaneously striking at the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle.

Clang clang.

In a flash, the eagle’s claws fiercely collided with two of the sword auras, shattering them directly.

However, there were still three sword auras slashing fiercely into the massive body of the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle.

Roar.

The mouth of the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle emitted a shrill wail instantly, and its body flew sideways like a meteor, eventually crashing to the ground dozens of zhang away.

Even Lv Bai, who was encased in the eagle, suffered from this force’s backlash, spewing a stream of blood, his face paler than a corpse.

”Twenty-five Qi Seas, how is this possible? Could it be that his cultivation has reached True Qi Realm Fifth Layer.” Lv Bai’s eyes were full of shock and incredulity.

Ye Chen possessed a quintuple Qi Sea Foundation, allowing him to gain five Qi Seas with every breakthrough in the realm.

However, he hadn’t even awakened his bloodline, and his cultivation speed was no different from ordinary cultivators. How could he have raised his cultivation to the True Qi Realm Fifth Layer in such a short time?

This was simply unimaginable.

”Five Elements Sword Technique.” At the moment Lv Bai was filled with horror, Ye Chen’s hands suddenly began forming Sword Seals one after another. Immediately, the True Qi around his body condensed into a massive Five-Colored Sword Aura, emanating a soul-shaking aura.

This Sword Aura spanned a full five or six yards, instantly slicing through the sky, striking down fiercely toward Lv Bai, who lay on the ground.

”No! Ye Chen, I admit defeat, please don’t kill me.” Lv Bai’s pupils contracted suddenly, his expression filled with extreme terror, and he hurriedly begged Ye Chen for mercy.

This Five-Colored Sword Aura, formed by the True Qi of twenty-five Seas of Qi, was truly terrifying, its power likely approaching the strength of forty tigers.

Even Lv Bai felt the intense threat of death from above at this moment.

If he were struck by this sword, death would be inevitable.

”Die.” Yet, faced with Lv Bai’s plea for mercy, Ye Chen remained unmoved, continuing to wield the Five-Colored Sword Aura, slashing down upon Lv Bai with unrelenting force.

Since his opponent had attempted to put him to death just now, why should he show mercy?

”No!” Lv Bai’s entire body bristled with fear, and he hurriedly unleashed the full power of the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle, waving its colossal wings to meet the Five-Colored Sword Aura.

With a loud splintering sound.

The next moment, the wings of the Golden-winged Spirit Eagle were forcibly severed by the Five-Colored Sword Aura.

Ah!

A harrowing scream erupted from Lv Bai’s mouth, sending chills down one’s spine.

His Golden-winged Spirit Eagle, capable at most of unleashing the Power of Thirty-Five Tigers, stood no chance against Ye Chen’s Five Elements Sword Technique. It was instantly pierced by the Five-Colored Sword Aura.

Even Lv Bai’s body was cleaved in half by the golden Sword Aura, and blood immediately stained the ground red.

”I can’t believe I’ll die at the hands of a waste who can’t even awaken his bloodline,” Lv Bai thought in his final moments, his eyes widened with terror and regret.

If he had known earlier how powerful Ye Chen was, he would never have agreed so readily to Duanmu Jie.

Unfortunately, it was too late for regret now.

”He’s dead! Lv Bai was actually killed by Ye Chen.”

”Who would’ve thought he had twenty-five Seas of Qi but was hiding his strength all along? Such depth of strategy is unfathomable.” The onlookers gasped in disbelief, their eyes wide with astonishment.

They couldn’t believe that Ye Chen, an ordinary cultivator without an awakened bloodline, was able to kill Lv Bai, who had awakened the Yellow Level Second Grade bloodline.

This was akin to a fantastical tale.

”Damn it! Damn it, how could this waste have raised his cultivation to the True Qi Realm Fifth Layer in just half a month?” On the Observation Platform, Duanmu Jie leapt up from his seat, his features contorted with rage, looking terribly menacing.

It was known that, during the admission assessment half a month ago, Ye Chen’s cultivation was only at the True Qi Realm Fourth Layer.

In just half a month, he had elevated to the True Qi Realm Fifth Layer.

Such a cultivation speed was incredibly shocking.

Even he, with an awakened Profound Level Fifth Grade bloodline, couldn’t achieve this with just ordinary spirit stones.

”How is this possible? Didn’t I already take his bloodline? How does he still possess such astonishing cultivation speed? Could there be other secrets hidden within him?” Ye Lin’Er clenched her fists tightly, her gaze fixed intently on Ye Chen as if trying to uncover all his secrets.

It was known that ordinary cultivators, unable to awaken their bloodlines, would take at least two years to open a Sea of Qi even with ordinary spirit stones.

Yet in just half a month, Ye Chen had opened five new Seas of Qi consecutively.

Even possessing the exceedingly rare Celestial Spirit Stone, which could reduce the difficulty of opening Seas of Qi by dozens of times, this was impossible.

The only explanation was that Ye Chen must have encountered some extraordinary opportunity.

”Won, Ye Chen actually won.” At this time, on another Observation Platform, Ouyang Xue’s body trembled with excitement, her expression filled with extreme delight, as if in a dream.

Even she did not expect that Ye Chen would be able to elevate his cultivation to the True Qi Realm Fifth Layer and open twenty-five Seas of Qi in just half a month.

This was undoubtedly a tremendous surprise for her.

”How is this possible? That waste supposedly couldn’t awaken a bloodline; there’s no way the speed of condensing Seas of Qi could be so fast. How did he do it?” Beside her, Liu Xin’s smile froze, as if she had swallowed a swarm of dead flies.

She had assumed that Ye Chen would definitely die at Lv Bai’s hands, with no unexpected outcome.

Yet, against her expectations, Ye Chen actually opened twenty-five Seas of Qi and forcefully killed Lv Bai.

This made Liu Xin feel as if she had been slapped hard across the face, her shame and anger overwhelming.
