Supreme Lord of Towers

Above the spacious Zodiac Battle Platform, Ye Chen tightly gripped a Five-Colored Sword Aura about five or six zhang long in his right hand, exuding an intense battle intent from head to toe, like a War God descending to earth.

”Heh! Ye Chen, it seems you won’t believe it until you see your own coffin. Since you seek your own disgrace, I’ll oblige you. To be defeated by me is your honor.” Seeing that Ye Chen had no intention of admitting defeat, Liu Feng sneered, a strong trace of mockery flashing at the corner of his mouth.

Buzz.

The next moment, a dazzling red glow erupted from behind Liu Feng, seemingly more brilliant than the sun in the sky, making it hard for everyone to keep their eyes open.

Following that, a giant python, at least ten zhang long, manifested from the red glow, its entire body covered in fiery red scales, as if forged from Fire Jade, giving off an indestructible feeling.

Moreover, on the forehead of this giant python, a sharp horn grew, emitting an extremely scorching aura, causing an involuntary chill to run down one’s spine.

”Heavens! That’s the Red-Scaled Flame Python Bloodline, a Profound Level Ninth Grade Bloodline.”

”A Profound Level Ninth Grade Bloodline, although at the bottom of the Profound Bloodlines, its power is still much more terrifying than a Yellow Level First Grade Bloodline. I really don’t know where Ye Chen found the courage to battle Liu Feng.”

”Hmph! It’s not too late for him to admit defeat now, or else it’ll be too late for regrets, and he might even end up dying at Liu Feng’s hands.” The new students watching the scene exclaimed one by one, their eyes filled with intense dread.

”So this is a Profound Bloodline? The presence is indeed much stronger than Cheng Long’s Bronze Wild Elephant Bloodline.” Ye Chen’s gaze fell on the Red-Scaled Flame Python, his expression calm as if everything was within his control.

Profound Bloodlines, even in the entire Celestial Flame Dynasty, are extremely rare, with one or two emerging each year considered quite good.

In recent years, the Celestial Flame Dynasty has only seen Ye Lin’Er, Duanmu Jie, Duanmu Xiong, Liu Feng, and Lin Zixuan, these five prodigies awakening Profound Bloodlines.

This shows just how rare they are.

And precisely because of this, the power of Profound Bloodlines is extremely formidable, far beyond the imagination of commoners, not even comparable to Yellow Level First Grade Bloodlines.

Even the lowest Profound Bloodline is much stronger than a Yellow Level First Grade Bloodline, let alone those higher-level Profound Bloodlines.

”This Liu Feng, his cultivation is already incredibly close to a Gang Qi Realm expert. Coupled with awakening a Profound Level Ninth Grade Bloodline, his strength might already match some Gang Qi Realm Third Layer experts! Therefore, I need to defeat him by catching him off guard.” Ye Chen thought to himself.

It’s known that even Cheng Long, who awakened a Yellow Level First Grade Bloodline, when fully exploding his power, could possess a combat power of over a hundred tigers.

And Liu Feng, whether in True Qi or bloodline, is stronger than Cheng Long.

Therefore, the power he can unleash is definitely much more terrifying than Cheng Long’s, possibly reaching the Power of a Hundred and Fifty Tigers.

However, Liu Feng has never regarded Ye Chen as a worthy opponent, so he is unlikely to exert his full strength right from the start.

This, without a doubt, is a heaven-sent opportunity for Ye Chen.

”The secret of my ninefold Qi Sea Foundation must not be exposed, so to swiftly defeat Liu Feng, I have to activate the full power of the Human Emperor Body.” Intense light shot out of Ye Chen’s eyes.

Whoosh.

In the next instant, his body left a shadow where he stood, transforming into a human-shaped beast, wielding the Five-Colored Sword Aura, rapidly soaring towards Liu Feng.

”Hmph! Truly overestimating oneself.” Liu Feng raised his head arrogantly, uttered disdainfully, not taking Ye Chen seriously at all.

With a loud bang.

The next moment, he mobilized the Red-Scaled Flame Python behind him, its massive body, like a fiery mountain, struck towards Ye Chen with force.

In an instant, the surrounding air within dozens of zhang exploded, generating snow-white airwaves, an incredibly terrifying spectacle.

There is no denying that Liu Feng’s strength is indeed formidable.

With just a casual strike, he unleashed the power of roughly a hundred and thirty tigers, leaving even ordinary Gang Qi Realm Second Layer experts to be crushed.

”Power of a Hundred Tigers, explode for me.” At this point, Ye Chen’s muscles swelled up sharply, expanding by an entire circle compared to before, with a faint golden divine light radiating from his skin, transforming him into an unparalleled War God with the power to lift mountains.

Subsequently, he swung the Five-Colored Sword Aura in his hand, slashing fiercely towards the head of the Red-Scaled Flame Python.

”Not good!” Liu Feng’s pupils contracted sharply, his expression froze instantly, causing his hair to stand on end.

At this moment, from Ye Chen, he actually sensed an extremely dangerous aura, as if facing a prehistoric beast.

But by the time he reacted, it was already too late.

With a loud thud.

In an instant, the Five-Colored Sword Aura in Ye Chen’s hand clashed violently with the Red-Scaled Flame Python, slicing a wound half a meter deep into its neck.

If it weren’t for the python’s scales, its entire head might have been chopped off due to its incredibly strong defense.

Howl.

Even so, the Red-Scaled Flame Python suffered extremely severe injuries, letting out a heartrending wail, its massive body struggling as it collapsed to the ground.

”No! How could this be? How could his strength be so formidable? I’m not reconciled.” Liu Feng’s mouth emitted an incomparably furious roar, his eyes filled with unyielding reluctance and disbelief.

He never expected that Ye Chen would still be hiding his strength, capable of unleashing the power of over one hundred fifty tigers.

If he had gone all out, he might have been able to withstand Ye Chen’s attack.

But he had been too complacent just now, never considering Ye Chen as a threat.

That’s why he ended up in such a pitiful state.

Wow.

As Ye Chen severely injured the Red-Scaled Flame Python’s neck, blood incessantly spurted from Liu Feng’s mouth, even the meridians on his body were severed in many places, instantly losing his ability to fight.

This is also the downside of using the Bloodline Dharma Aspect for battle. Once heavily injured by the enemy, he too would suffer backlash.

Unfortunately, it’s too late for Liu Feng to regret now.

He absolutely should not have underestimated Ye Chen.

”Ye Chen, you are so despicable. Although I lost, I am truly unwilling. If I had fought with all my strength, I could definitely have defeated you.” Liu Feng’s face was deathly pale, collapsed on the ground, speaking to Ye Chen with intense venom.

”A loss is a loss. There are no ifs. You can only blame your own complacency.” Ye Chen replied with a cold sneer, not considering his actions despicable in the slightest.

Even a lion must use full strength to hunt a rabbit.

How can Liu Feng not understand this principle? Who else is there to blame for his defeat?

Luckily for him, today’s match was with Ye Chen, who had no intention to kill.

Otherwise, he would undoubtedly be a dead man.

”Ye Chen, I’ll remember you, just wait and see.” Liu Feng’s face darkened to the extreme, eyes filled with deep humiliation. He then struggled to stand, stumbling off the platform with utmost disgrace.

He, the acclaimed genius having awakened a Profound Bloodline, was actually defeated by a mere waste who couldn’t even awaken a bloodline.

How will he face anyone henceforth?

From today on, he feared he would become the laughing stock of the entire Royal Capital.

”Defeated, Liu Feng was actually defeated by Ye Chen in one move, am I dreaming?”

”Impossible, this must be false.” On New Talent Peak’s summit, chaos broke out everywhere.

Neither the watching newcomers nor the veterans, even the instructors and Elders, stood frozen in place, eyes wide and disbelieving at the scene before them.

Because what was unfolding before their eyes was utterly unreal, unbelievably fantastical.

”Power of a Hundred Tigers, this Ye Chen’s body can actually unleash the Power of a Hundred Tigers, how is this possible?” In the magnificent hall, the Celestial Flame Peak Master abruptly stood from his chair, eyes filled with disbelief.

This was the first time he showed such loss of composure.

”A monster, this guy, is truly a monster.” Even Soul Palace Master Chen Fei, his eyes widened in astonishment as if he had seen a ghost.

As Celestial Spirit Realm Qi Dao Grandmasters, their discerning eyes instantly sensed the physical power Ye Chen had just unleashed, an astounding one hundred thousand pounds, equivalent to the Power of a Hundred Tigers.

In the history of the Celestial Flame Dynasty, this was absolutely unprecedented.

It should be known that even the strongest physical power among the past generations of War King Hall Masters, at Ye Chen’s age, only possessed at most the Power of Forty Tigers.

Ye Chen far surpassed them all.

”Impossible? No matter how strong his physical talent, without practicing a Body Refining Technique, it should be impossible for him to have such formidable power. Surely he’s been cultivating some kind of Body Refining Technique.” Duanmu Ying’s delicate body trembled slightly, her face covered with a thick layer of frost.

She absolutely refused to believe that Ye Chen could possess such strong physical power without having practiced any Body Refining Technique.

”What Sister Duanmu says is indeed so. It’s something I hadn’t thought of until now.” The Soul Palace Master quickly nodded, his expression swiftly calming.

”Heh heh! Even if Ye Chen practiced a Body Refining Technique, achieving the Power of a Hundred Tigers is an incredibly arduous endeavor. This proves that in the realm of body refining, he truly has unparalleled talent.” Ouyang Zhong grinned, his expression filled with extreme excitement, gazing at Ye Chen as if looking at a priceless treasure.
