Zhang Zijiang couldn't help but say to Xie Daoyun beside him, "Miss Xie, how come there are so many fools in the world? Lord Zu was clearly telling the truth, but these people are ungrateful and are rushing to send him up."

He regretted it a little. He had been intimidated by the prestige of the various sect leaders and hadn't jumped out to flatter Master Zu in time, thus missing so many good opportunities.

Seeing his frustrated expression, as if he were about to slap his thigh in frustration, Xie Daoyun said with a strange look, "It's normal for them to misunderstand, after all, Brother Zu's situation is indeed a bit special."

If she hadn't witnessed Brother Zu's power firsthand, she wouldn't have imagined that someone who looked so weak could be so formidable.

The young monk from Wuyou Temple, who had been practicing abstinence from lust, tugged at the sleeve of the master in charge of pornography review: "Master, I don't think the eldest brother is worthy of his Dharma name."

The master of pornography review remained silent for a long time before finally sighing, "After returning to the temple, I changed his name."

The eldest brother's Buddhist name is "Jie Kuang," which means he is usually too arrogant. But compared to this guy in front of him, what right does he have to be called arrogant?

"Xu Chuan, you're a Grandmaster of the Power Realm, how can you bully a young man like this? If you want to fight, fight me!" Master Huo Ling roared.

Although he felt that Zuan's words were too arrogant, he was trying to help Manman, and he couldn't just sit idly by.

Elder Xu was almost bursting with resentment. "Are you blind? Who was bullying whom just now?"

Knowing he was no match for Master Huoling, he ignored her challenge and instead looked at Zu'an: "Are you planning to hide behind a woman and be a coward again this time?"

Zuan said calmly, "I've been waiting for you to make a move, but who knew you'd never have the guts."

"Holy crap, nobody stop me!" Elder Xu's eyes glowed red as he rolled up his sleeves and jumped onto the arena.

The other masters from various schools nodded secretly. This kid was indeed too infuriating; even I, as an observer, could hardly contain myself.

The disciples from all factions were extremely excited. Originally, they were just there to watch the competition between the disciples, but now they were even able to see the referees tearing each other apart. It was definitely worth the trip. The only regret was that one of the referees seemed a bit weak, and the fight would probably end quickly.

Seeing this, Master Huoling became very anxious and wanted to step forward, but was stopped by people from other sects: "Master, since Master Zu said so, he is obviously confident, so you don't need to worry about him."

Although he said that, his expression was somewhat gloating, clearly indicating that he didn't think Zuan was really confident.

Blocked by several people, Master Huoling couldn't get through even if she wanted to.

At this moment, Elder Xu stopped in front of Zu An and said, "You make the first move."

He respected his status, and although he was furious, he knew that as a senior expert, he couldn't attack a junior first. It was more appropriate for him to retaliate after the other party made the first move.

“If I make a move, you won’t have a chance,” Zaun said calmly. “Besides, I’ve already said that you’re not worthy of my use of my hands.”

Elder Xu laughed angrily: "Fine, then I'll see how you manage to deny me a chance without making a move."

Anger from Xu Chuan: +666 +666 +666...

The leaders of the surrounding sects, and even those who were on the same side as Master Huoling, all felt that Zu'an was far too arrogant and ignorant.

At this moment, Elder Xu disregarded all the rules of the martial world and threw a punch directly at Zu An. As a Grandmaster of the Power Realm, his attack was as powerful as a mountain being uprooted.

The surrounding disciples covered their ears in pain, because the punch had created a sonic boom—no, it had even created a dazzling light by friction between the fist and the air.

The barrier around the arena began to crumble, and even the arena itself began to collapse.

Feeling that terrifying pressure, apart from a few elders of the sect, even the younger generation of disciples, such as Wu Xiaofan and Wan Guiyi, were all horrified.

Is this the power of a Grandmaster's punch at the Power Realm?

If you were hit head-on by a punch like that, there probably wouldn't even be a trace of bone left, right?

At this moment, even Zhang Zijiang and Xie Daoyun became nervous. They had seen Zu An make a move before, but back then he was only facing Scarface Yang Shen, who had just entered the Grandmaster Heroic Spirit Realm. But now Elder Xu was a Grandmaster of the Power Spirit Realm, who was three major realms higher.

The power of this strike far surpassed that of Yang Shen.

Only Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue remained expressionless, their inner selves the most composed.

With a deafening roar, Elder Xu's arena collapsed completely, and even several other arenas around it were affected, collapsing as well. Fortunately, Wang Wuxie and the others intervened in time and rebuilt a barrier, thus preventing the aftershocks from injuring the many disciples outside.

"Is that guy surnamed Zu dead?"

"If he's still alive after all this, is he a god?"

"However, he is, after all, an official appointed by the imperial court, and there may be trouble at Luofu Mountain later."

...

Zhao Xiaodie let out a gasp, nervously watching the dust-filled arena, her expression a mixture of tension and relief.

The ninth junior brother, Cai Yu, said, "Senior sister is indeed meticulous, senior brother. That pretty boy is doomed. It's a way of venting senior brother's anger."

Zhao Xiaodie forced a smile, but her expression was full of confusion. Logically speaking, I should be happy that the villain is dead, so why do I feel empty inside?

However, some astute individuals soon noticed that the sect leaders were all staring solemnly at the arena, as if they had witnessed something horrifying.

"Look! There's golden light in the sky!"

Someone shouted, and everyone looked up to see golden ripples suddenly appearing in the air. In front of those golden ripples, a figure was floating in mid-air. It was none other than Zu An!
