“Brother Chu Feng, it was that black-clothed bastard.”
“That fellow is extremely arrogant. He is not from our Holy Light Galaxy, yet he came to participate in this contest.”
“He even deliberately chose a name, ‘You Are All Trash’, just to humiliate us.”
“Originally, Miss Xiaoxiao had already conceded, but who would have thought this guy would insult you. Miss Xiaoxiao could not bear his insults towards you, so she challenged him again.”
“As a result, this guy severely injured Miss Xiaoxiao. Her soul has been wounded, and we have tried to treat her for a long time, but we cannot ease her pain at all.”
“Brother Chu Feng, you must teach this guy a harsh lesson and avenge us!”
Before Long Xiaoxiao could speak, Bao Yue pointed at the black-clothed youth and angrily recounted his misdeeds.
Upon learning what had happened, Chu Feng turned his gaze towards the black-clothed youth.
“You injured Long Xiaoxiao?”
Chu Feng asked coldly.
“Oh dear, what a fierce glare. Are you trying to kill me or something?”
However, faced with Chu Feng’s questioning, the black-clothed youth showed no fear. Instead, the corners of his mouth curled up in clear provocation.
Whoosh.
In response, Chu Feng flicked his wrist, and a half-complete Venerable Armament appeared in his grasp.
Immediately afterwards, overwhelming pressure burst forth from his body.
The pressure of a rank six Sovereign swept outwards like a hurricane from within Chu Feng.
Yet when Chu Feng released his pressure, the black-clothed youth burst into laughter.
“Good heavens, with that murderous look in your eyes and that killing intent that wishes me dead, I thought you were something special.”
“After all that, you’re only a rank six Sovereign?”
“Hey, Lord Ice Dragon, you just said someone saved us. It can’t really be this guy, right?”
The black-clothed youth looked towards the ice dragon.
Unexpectedly, the ice dragon completely ignored him. As its massive body turned, violent winds ravaged the entire world.
The ice dragon had left.
But at that moment, no one paid attention to its departure.
Their focus was on Chu Feng.
When Chu Feng had first appeared, hope had reignited in them.
They thought that since Chu Feng could save everyone, he must be stronger than the rest.
If he dealt with the black-clothed youth, he might actually win.
But now, after Chu Feng revealed his cultivation, it was only rank six Sovereign.
That was even lower than Long Xiaoxiao’s. How could he possibly contend with the unfathomably powerful black-clothed youth?
In an instant, the hope that had just sparked in the crowd was extinguished.
Some even began, like the black-clothed youth, to doubt whether Chu Feng was truly the one who had saved them.
After all, Chu Feng had merely emerged from the ice dragon’s mouth. The ice dragon had not explicitly stated that Chu Feng was the saviour of the juniors.
Crackle, crackle.
However, just as disappointment filled everyone’s faces, lightning surged across Chu Feng’s forehead and body.
Lightning Markings and Lightning Armour appeared simultaneously. In the blink of an eye, Chu Feng’s cultivation rose from rank six Sovereign to rank eight Sovereign.
Seeing this, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically.
Heaven-level bloodline, Divine Punishment Mysterious Technique. He had activated two forbidden methods at once.
This alone proved how extraordinary Chu Feng was.
Yet before the crowd could even exclaim in amazement, thunder roared in the void above. The winds shifted, and clouds churned. The enormous forms of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise materialised in the sky.
Divine Bestowment power. Everyone could feel it. That phenomenon was Divine Bestowment.
Moreover, it was an extremely powerful Divine Bestowment.
Most importantly, once the Divine Bestowment appeared, Chu Feng’s cultivation rose again, reaching rank nine Sovereign.
This level of cultivation now matched the black-clothed youth’s exactly.
“Good heavens, Heaven-level bloodline and Divine Bestowment. He possesses both at the same time?”
“And he… consecutively increased his cultivation by three ranks?”
“Is he even human?”
This scene left those unfamiliar with Chu Feng staring in stunned disbelief.
It was no longer mere astonishment. They were terrified, utterly frightened by Chu Feng’s abilities.
Watching their reactions, the Dragon Clan Chief, the Lord of the Myriad Demons Sacred Hall, and others exchanged glances before subtle smiles appeared on their faces.
Although they now appeared unfazed, they remembered that when they first witnessed Chu Feng’s methods, they too had been as shocked as these people.
“This little brat!”
Even the powerhouses of the Holy Light Clan now regarded him with complicated expressions.
“I will ask you one more time. Was it you?”
Chu Feng asked the black-clothed youth again.
At the same time, his killing intent grew even more ferocious.
“Now this is getting interesting.”
The black-clothed youth’s gaze also shifted.
The previous disdain in his eyes vanished, replaced by a trace of gravity.
“That’s right, I did it.”
“That girl stood up for you, so I injured her.”
“Not just her. I also injured that trash from the Holy Light Clan.”
“You want to avenge them, don’t you?”
“I’m standing right here. If you have the ability… come at me.”
Whoosh.
With those words, the black-clothed youth flicked his wrist, and his black spear pointed straight at Chu Feng.
He was fully prepared for battle.
Whoosh.
Suddenly, a streak of lightning shot towards the black-clothed youth.
It was Chu Feng. Carrying overwhelming killing intent and raging fury, he charged at his opponent.
“Let me see what you’re capable of!”
The black-clothed youth showed no fear. Spear in hand, he rushed forward to meet him.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
The two clashed, and shockwaves raged outwards. Their might surpassed not only Long Xiaoxiao’s earlier fight but also Sheng Guangyu’s.
Yet the battle between Chu Feng and the black-clothed youth remained evenly matched, with no clear victor.
This made the crowd break into a cold sweat for Chu Feng.
This was exactly what they feared.
Whether facing Long Xiaoxiao or Sheng Guangyu, the black-clothed youth had never used his full strength.
So even though the fight now appeared balanced, they worried that once the black-clothed youth unleashed his true power, Chu Feng would fall just like the others.
Sure enough, before long, the seemingly even exchange began to tilt.
However, when the balance shifted, the crowd felt not worry but excitement.
Because this time, the one gaining the upper hand was no longer the black-clothed youth. It was Chu Feng.
The half-complete Venerable Armament in Chu Feng’s hand was unstoppable.
The black-clothed youth’s spear dared not clash directly with it.
He did not even dare to block Chu Feng’s weapon with his own. He could only dodge continuously.
Whenever he parried a single blow, not only did his black spear tremble violently, but his palm, wrist, arm, and entire body shook intensely.
It was as if merely blocking one strike had subjected him to an unbearable assault.
Though Chu Feng possessed only a mortal body, at this moment he resembled a frenzied beast. Every attack was ferociously powerful, utterly transcending the limits of a martial cultivator.
“Too strong. He is simply too strong.”
“Is this the genius ranked first by Nian Tiandao?”
“How can a junior be so savage?”
Witnessing Chu Feng’s performance, the crowd felt their scalps tingle and their hairs stand on end.
Even those who had seen grand spectacles struggled to contain their excitement and trembling nerves.
Many of them had watched countless genius battles.
Yet never had they seen a junior as ferocious as Chu Feng.
Had they not witnessed it with their own eyes, they would not have believed a junior could reach such a level.
Remember, this black-clothed youth had effortlessly defeated both Long Xiaoxiao and Sheng Guangyu.
While the older generation outside marvelled at Chu Feng’s display, the juniors below the mountain peak were equally intimidated by his strength.
Among them was Yin Buyu of the Yin Dao Mansion.
“A monster like this. I actually deluded myself into thinking I could defeat him earlier. How foolish I was.”
He kept wiping cold sweat from his face. Clearly terrified, yet a trace of relief showed on his features. He was glad he had not challenged Chu Feng.
Because against such a monster, issuing a challenge would be like a lamb walking into a tiger’s den.
