Chapter 43: Marching into the Inland Sea! [First Update]

Chapter 43: Marching into the Inland Sea! [First Update]

The discussions and conversations in the whole venue quieted down. All the audience and all the talented contestants turned their eyes to the battle stage. There was a whistling sound of wind, and an old man with white hair as white as snow, gentle and elegant, wearing a white robe, slowly floated down, looked around the audience, and looked solemn.

"High-level temple deacon level!" Ye Chen looked at the old man in white robes and frowned slightly. "In the temple, ordinary temple messengers are assigned to the 36 islands in the outer sea to take charge of things. Each of them is a king-grade powerhouse! The next level up, they are divided into temple deacons, each of whom is a king-grade fifth level! Then, there are high-level temple deacons, whose combat power is at least a king-grade eighth level!"

“Once you surpass the tenth level of the King Grade, you will become the first-class Divine Grade, the level of the island master of the Six Gods Island in the Inner Sea. Once you reach the tenth level of the Divine Grade, you will become a saint, the pinnacle of perfection, and the island master of the Dragon King Island, that is, the patriarch of the entire Xuanyuan clan!”

Ye Chen could feel the accumulation of thousands of years in this temple. Everyone in the clan was brave and good at fighting. Even if they were placed in the outside world, they would be an extremely terrifying force. They could completely form a base city comparable to the base city of China! After all, there was also technological power here!

At this time, the white-haired old man had finished his speech, and a middle-aged man, holding a golden list, floated in the air and read out loudly: "Next, the first selection station will be held. Huang Dongpo from Purple Moon Island will compete against Huang Zi from Orchid Island!"

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Two figures rushed to the stage, showing extraordinary temperament. They looked at each other, with a long and distant aura and a high level of background. As the game began, the two men rushed forward at a fast speed, one holding a gun and the other holding a sword. They intertwined with each other, and the sound of metal collision and friction produced a burst of sparks.

"One is level seven, and the other is level eight!" Ye Chen took a look and nodded slightly in his heart, "The contestants from the 30 islands in Zhonghai are indeed stronger. The ordinary contestants are all above level seven when they appear on the stage. I'm afraid that there may be level nine or ten contestants later!"

After taking a look twice, Ye Chen retracted his gaze, too lazy to look any longer. He closed his eyes and quietly absorbed the free elements of various types in the air. At the same time, he discovered that the source crystal grass that sank into his wrist had grown a little bit after a night and was able to exert a level 5 power!

A small part of the strength in his body was also eaten up by this little thing. However, for him, the loss of this little bit of strength was nothing, and he could make it up in a few breaths.

Beside him, the boy in the straw hat saw Ye Chen's expression, his eyes flashed, he looked at him deeply, then turned his head away, looked at the boring battle on the martial arts stage, yawned, pressed his straw hat down to cover his face, hugged his head and fell asleep...

VIP seats in the distance.

Four or five figures were sitting casually on the stone chairs. One of them was a girl with a slender figure, skin as white as snow, transparent as ice crystal, cold cheeks, and extremely beautiful. She was wearing a lavender gown with a purple cloud pattern embroidered on her shoulder. She was a contestant from the inner sea of ​​Ziyun Island. Behind her stood a girl who had a heroic air. If Ye Chen saw her, he would definitely recognize that this girl was the unruly girl who asked him to give way on the street.

"Is this the battle in Zhonghai?" The unruly girl looked at the battle on the stage with disdain, "How weak! I can take care of these people myself."

The purple-shirted girl said calmly, "Don't underestimate anyone. With your personality, you will always cause trouble in the future and provoke people you shouldn't provoke. When your parents died in a feud, my father adopted you and taught you martial arts, not because he wanted you to cause trouble everywhere!"

Hearing this, the unruly girl was stunned for a moment, and her hands hanging on both sides trembled slightly. Then, she slowly lowered her head and whispered, "Yes, Miss."

The purple-shirted girl leaned back in a large chair, looking at the martial arts arena below with a cold and arrogant look, and said, "According to the news, there are four difficult characters in the Zhonghai area this time. They are all rare geniuses. They are young, and in an environment like Zhonghai, they have reached the king-level combat power. If they grew up in the inner sea, I'm afraid their achievements will be even higher!"

The unruly girl was stunned for a moment, and said, "Before you were 18, you broke through to the King level? And in the Zhonghai area?"

The purple-shirted girl smiled coldly and said, "These four people have all received invitations from the Inner Sea Six Gods Island. Except for the genius boy named 'Black Tower', the other three have refused. Most of them are also interested in the battle in the Inner Sea and hope to directly join the temple and become messengers or deacons!"

The unruly girl said indifferently: "With your strength, Miss, even if it is a king-level strongman, it doesn't matter, can't it be solved in one move?"

"Of course." The purple-shirted girl said calmly, "My goal is to be the number one in the Inner Sea. However, several geniuses have risen in the Inner Sea this time, and they will all become my competitors!"

The unruly girl stuck out her tongue and said no more.

…

On the martial arts stage, battles take place in rounds. Each island has two to three contestants, but with special techniques, people from the same island will not collide with each other on the martial arts stage.

"The fifteenth match, Wangyue Island, Ye Chen, versus Yaoguang Island, Huang Jie!" the middle-aged man announced loudly.

Ye Chen slowly opened his eyes, and his bones moved for a simple warm-up. Then he stood up, took a step forward, and his figure was like a startled wild goose, flying towards the martial arts stage, and landing gracefully. His body was like a javelin, not shaking at all.

This method of transporting energy made many people in the genius battle zone stare at it.

whoosh!

Across from him, a young man in a golden robe flew up, flipped his hand, and took out a sword. With a noble aura, he looked at Ye Chen coldly and said, "Since you are from the outer sea and it is not easy to be promoted, I will let you have a move first. Go ahead!"

Ye Chen's expression was calm, and he said: "Since you are too weak, I won't do anything. Just surrender yourself!"

The golden-robed young man Huang Jie choked for a moment, then immediately flew into a rage, "You're looking for death!" The arm holding the sword trembled slightly. With the sound of a bell, the game began, and he rushed towards Ye Chen with all his might.

"The knife hasn't even come out, but my heart is already in chaos." Ye Chen looked calm as he looked at Huang Jie who was rushing towards him aggressively. He raised his palm, pinched it slightly, and clamped Huang Jie's wrist. With a flick of his finger, the entire back of the knife was shaking violently, causing Huang Jie, who was holding the handle of the knife, to have a cramp in his palm and tremble slightly. The knuckles were broken, and the knife slipped out of his hand in horror and fell to the ground.

Ye Chen grabbed the hilt of the knife with his hand, and his eyes became focused in an instant, as if the whole world had disappeared and in his eyes, there was only the knife in his palm!

The sound from the cheering audience seemed to disappear in an instant.

The surging sword intent rushed out of Ye Chen. He held the sword in one hand, and his black hair moved without wind, like a peerless sword master. Huang Jie's pupils shrank, and he was about to retreat, but he heard Ye Chen's cold voice ringing in his ears: "The sword should be used like this!"

Whoosh——

A fascinating blade light cut through the sky, seeming to cut the entire void into pieces.

Huang Jie didn't even see why Ye Chen made the move, but he saw Ye Chen had already retracted his hand, and with a flick of his wrist, he threw the sword over to him and dropped it at his feet. The tip of the sword was stuck in the stone slab, and the handle was still shaking.

call!

A breeze blew, and Huang Jie felt a chill on his body. He was horrified and looked down. He was immediately embarrassed to see that the clothes on his upper body had broken into pieces and fallen off. Fortunately, his trousers were still intact, otherwise, he would have been naked in front of tens of thousands of people.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Go away." Ye Chen said calmly, as if he was just giving an order to a subordinate.

Huang Jie glanced at him angrily, but did not dare to stay any longer. He gripped his sword tightly, moved his body, quickly left the martial arts stage, and disappeared in the crowd.

Ye Chen's figure moved and landed in the genius rest area. Today's battle had already been won, and there was no point in staying any longer. He turned around and left in the stunned eyes of everyone.

This battle ended quickly.

In the Genius Rest Area, the straw hat boy opened his eyes and looked at Ye Chen's back with interest, muttering: "You defeated Huang Jie with one move. It seems that you really have the strength of a king!"

In the VIP seats in the distance, the purple-shirted girl stared at him, then frowned, as if she was thinking. The unruly girl behind her saw Ye Chen leaving and couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Isn't this the dwarf from that day? How can he be so strong?"

As the game ended, Ye Chen's reputation spread throughout Zhonghai. Huang Jie was quite famous in Zhonghai Island 30, but he did not expect that he would be defeated so easily by Ye Chen. For a time, many talented players in Zhonghai secretly paid attention to him.

In the next few days of competition, Ye Chen did not act too high-profile. When he met a strong man above level nine, he would fight with the opponent for a while, and then defeat the opponent "with difficulty".

In the blink of an eye, six days passed and the trials were over.

In the past six days, Ye Chen would leave the arena after every battle because he found that the Source Crystal Grass grew extremely fast. In just one week, it reached level 100, which was equivalent to a first-level strongman!

Moreover, after reaching level 100, the volume of the source crystal grass became three meters in size, like a white birch tree, with flying vines and crystal leaves. It was extremely greedy and would occasionally automatically extend its vines to absorb various elemental substances in the air. However, in most cases, it would devour the energy in Ye Chen's body.

Fortunately, Ye Chen's speed of absorbing energy was far beyond that of others, otherwise he would have been heartbroken watching this little thing eating greedily.

On this day, all the geniuses gathered together, went through a reading ceremony, and finally the Shentai points system.

With the experience from last time, Ye Chen was more skilled and the killing was quite easy. Moreover, he vaguely discovered that among the talented players in Zhonghai, there were a few who were quite powerful. There were faint fluctuations of energy on their bodies. They were all king-level powerhouses!

Therefore, when fighting on the divine platform, he also released the first-level combat power of the king level. With this power, even if he could not get first place, he would not fall out of the top six.

As the competition came to an end, the results were announced.

"First place, Dongsha Island, Huang Ling! Points, 5 (3)!"

"Second place, Wangyue Island, Ye Chen! Points, 4302!"

"Third place, Fengshen Island, Huang Feng! Points, 38!"

"Fourth place, Blood Moon Island, Huang Chen! Points, 3593!"

Ye Chen was successfully selected and entered the Inner Sea Battle Series! That was where the Xuanyuan clan's top talents gathered!
