"What did you say!?"
But once Chu Chen and the others recovered, everyone's expression changed drastically.
He wanted all the disciples from Danyang Academy to come at once!?
Was this guy insane!?
"This guy's putting on airs again!"
"Exactly. He didn't show up before, but now that Young Master Ling Yan and Zhuo Jing have both lost, he finally comes out!?"
"It's all Ye Xuan's fault! If not for him, how could Danyang Academy have come knocking on our door!?"
At this moment, the disciples from Cloud Palace Academy also began cursing angrily.
It was as though Ye Xuan was not their fellow disciple, but their enemy instead!
By comparison, they would rather see Ye Xuan get brutally thrashed, so that Master Ji and Chu Wan'er could see his true colors!
Ling Yan's face was pale, and he stared coldly at Ye Xuan.
He wanted to see Ye Xuan suffer a crushing defeat too. That way, his own loss would not seem quite so humiliating.
"Shut up! You're a bunch of useless trash!"
But Ji Xueyao suddenly roared, suppressing all the clamor from Cloud Palace Academy's side.
If not for Mu Tianchen, she would never have shared an academy with such an ungrateful bunch of useless trash!
At this moment, behind the distant crowd, Liu Yunxi, who wore a bamboo hat and was wrapped in a black robe, saw Ye Xuan appear and was about to step forward as well.
"Don't rush!"
But Xuan Zhou pressed down on her shoulder and sneered. "Perhaps you won't need to act."
"If Ye Xuan loses, you can take the stage afterward and turn the tide. Wouldn't that be better?"
"I'll do as you command, Young Master!" Liu Yunxi nodded and stepped back, but beneath her bamboo hat, her eyes were filled with boundless hatred.
She had endured for an entire month for this day!
Now that she had advanced to the Myriad Manifestation Realm, all she wanted was revenge!
"Hahahaha!"
At this moment, Chu Chen on the arena suddenly burst into wild laughter.
He was not angry. He simply found it utterly ridiculous.
"You're that Ye Xuan?"
"As expected, you're only at the Heavenly Gang Realm. You think someone like you can establish a statue in the academy!?"
Chu Chen shook his head and snickered. Then he raised his arm and beckoned with a finger. "I heard you comprehended the Seven Mysteries and the Unique Dao Treasure?"
"Use them and let me have a look!"
His bearing showed that he did not take Ye Xuan seriously at all, much less the inheritance of Cloud Palace Academy.
The elder leading Danyang Academy's group shook his head and said disdainfully, "The Forbidden Body may possess formidable battle prowess, but it's still only invincible within the Heavenly Gang Realm. Before someone in the Myriad Manifestation Realm, it's no more than a pig—"
"Enough noise!"
Before he could finish, Ye Xuan's patience had already run out. He flung up his wide sleeve, and a tide of thunder suddenly swept across the entire arena!
"What!?"
Chu Chen clearly had not expected Ye Xuan to attack without warning.
And why was this seemingly casual wave of his hand so terrifyingly powerful!?
It even made Chu Chen feel as though he was not facing someone in the Heavenly Gang Realm, but a powerhouse in the Myriad Manifestation Realm!
Even so, despite the shock in his heart, Chu Chen unleashed his full battle strength at the fastest possible speed. He swung the black-gold spear in his hand like a fierce tiger and thrust it forward with explosive force!
Crack!
Yet under everyone's astonished gazes, that domineering golden spear that had just brutally defeated Zhuo Jing was destroyed beneath the thunder tide. The tiger was slain, and the spear shattered!
Chu Chen grunted and was swallowed by the thunder tide.
Pfft!
When everyone recovered, they found that Chu Chen had already been blasted off the arena, blood spraying across the sky!
"Chu Chen!?"
The cultivators from Danyang Academy hurriedly caught Chu Chen, only to discover that his armor had shattered, both his arms had exploded, and he had been grievously wounded into unconsciousness!
Silence!
The disdain and curses from before vanished at this moment.
Whether they were from Danyang Academy or Cloud Palace Academy, everyone stared at one another, their hearts filled with shock.
Chu Chen had actually been so utterly helpless!?
Ye Xuan, at the Heavenly Gang Realm, had raised a hand and brutally crushed someone in the Myriad Manifestation Realm?
Wasn't it said that the Forbidden Body could only be invincible in the Heavenly Gang Realm?
The Yaoguang Tower Master also looked toward Ji Xueyao. This was Ye Xuan's first battle after coming to the academy, and he had directly crushed Chu Chen!?
"There's nothing surprising about it!"
Ji Xueyao shrugged, not the slightest emotion visible on her face.
"The Myriad Manifestation Realm!? You think you're worthy of seeing my secret art!?"
At this moment, Ye Xuan stood on the arena with his hands behind his back, looking down at the cultivators from Danyang Academy.
"I gave you an opportunity. If you joined forces, you might still have had the strength to fight. What a racket!"
"If the two of you are about as strong as the one just now, you can get out of here right now!"
The thunder tide swirled around him, and his voice was domineering.
"Damn it!"
"How dare you be so arrogant? Do you think Danyang Academy has no one!?"
A Danyang prodigy who had not acted before immediately flew into a rage. Flames surged around him as he brought out a long staff wreathed in blazing fire and charged onto the arena!
"Let me tell you, I'm the fourth-ranked newcomer of Danyang Academy—"
"You aren't worthy of making me remember your name!" Before he could finish, Ye Xuan suddenly raised his hand and punched!
Boom!
Arcs of thunder intertwined and coiled around his fist. Six Forms of Annihilation Thunder!
Ye Xuan knew that this prodigy's cultivation was stronger than Chu Chen's!
But so what!?
The sixth form of the thunder fist was enough!
The Danyang prodigy had never expected Ye Xuan to be so unreasonable. Yet when the ferocious thunder fist came before him, he finally understood how violent its thunderous intent was.
Boom!
He immediately swung the long staff in his hand. As scarlet flames surged, the dharma idol of a Crimson Flame Giant Ape reared its head and roared toward the heavens, bringing the staff down like a chisel striking a mountain!
Crack!
Even though this strike had exhausted all the battle power he possessed in the Myriad Manifestation Realm, when faced with Ye Xuan's current Annihilation Thunder Fist, it was shattered to pieces in an instant.
The power of Ye Xuan's thunder fist did not dissipate. It continued to rampage and bombard him.
The staff's shadow shattered, and the Danyang prodigy, blasted backward again and again by the impact, was utterly terrified.
Even the Danyang secret art he had unleashed had been defeated in an instant!?
"Join forces!"
Just as he was about to be swallowed by the thunder fist, a streak of sword light suddenly burst from behind him and slashed down!
Boom!
The Sword Qi carried azure-blue ice flames as it struck the thunder fist. The arcs of thunder froze atop it, and the fist's radiance finally dispersed.
Only after seeing the arena filled with interwoven ice flames and fragments of thunder did everyone recover.
At this moment, there were already three people on the arena!
The only two Myriad Manifestation Realm newcomers remaining from Danyang Academy had appeared on the arena at the same time!
The two of them had joined forces just to block a single punch from Ye Xuan!?
The Cloud Palace disciples stared at one another.
Could it be that when Ye Xuan had just told the three people from Danyang Academy to come up together, he had not merely been putting on a brave front!?
"Danyang's third-ranked newcomer, Xie Qinghan, descendant of the great Xie Clan; and its fourth-ranked newcomer, Yuan Zhan, chief disciple of the top Super Grade Sect, the Vajra Sect. They actually have to join forces?"
"Ye Xuan hasn't even used Cloud Palace Academy's secret art!"
Everyone discussed animatedly, but their gazes toward Ye Xuan had completely changed.
The disdain from before had turned into wariness.
Ye Xuan's first battle in the academy was not against fellow disciples, but against Danyang's top newcomers!
It had even taken two Myriad Manifestation Realm newcomers to block a single punch from him!
In the distance, Liu Yunxi, who had originally been planning to seek revenge against Ye Xuan, suddenly clenched her fists as well.
At this moment, she was afraid!
"Why did this happen!?"
She was unwilling to accept it.
To become stronger, she had not hesitated to sell her body to Xuan Zhou and become his Cauldron. With great difficulty, she had advanced to the Myriad Manifestation Realm.
Yet now she discovered that in front of Ye Xuan, someone in the Myriad Manifestation Realm was no more than a clay chicken or earthen dog!?
"Hmph, it must be Ji Xueyao who helped him!"
"Yunxi, go to the Hundred Refinements Tower. You don't need to participate in the newcomer assessment!"
Xuan Zhou snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Whatever happened afterward was meaningless to him.
"Heh, that's more like it!"
On the arena, Ye Xuan looked at the two Danyang newcomers standing shoulder to shoulder, the corners of his lips curling upward.
Coming up together was perfect. He could deal with them together.
"Heh, you're Ye Xuan, are you?"
"There's no need for my junior brother to act!"
"Your Dao of Thunder is impressive, but it isn't a secret art. It's useless against me!"
Xie Qinghan sneered and raised the frost-wreathed long sword in his hand, pointing it straight at Ye Xuan.
"You don't know when to stop!"
Ye Xuan frowned. The disciples of Danyang Academy really were foolish!
"Die!"
Xie Qinghan immediately flew into a rage. He was a descendant of the great Xie Clan—how could he allow Ye Xuan to mock him!?
He swung the ice sword in his hand, and cold Sword Qi, like flames surging into the sky, swept across the arena!
"Cold Flame Heaven-Piercing Slash!"
His first move was already Danyang Academy's secret art of the sword!
Moreover, Xie Binghan's cultivation was already close to the mid-stage of the Myriad Manifestation Realm, and his Sword Qi stretched across two hundred zhang!
The cultivators from Danyang Academy were all thrilled. The victory or defeat of this visit to the academy rested on this sword strike from Xie Binghan!
"It's barely worthy of receiving a single finger!"
But Ye Xuan only snickered. He raised his hand, folded in four fingers, and pointed with a single finger!
"Tianshu Thunder Tribulation Finger!"
Boom!
In an instant, a hundred-zhang finger suddenly manifested before Ye Xuan's fingertip!
Azure thunder intertwined across the finger, its dazzling radiance piercing and blinding. Carrying the force to shatter ten thousand jun, it descended toward Xie Binghan!
Crack!
In an instant, the moment Xie Binghan's Heaven-Piercing Sword Qi touched the thunder finger, its flames were extinguished and its ice fragments exploded!
"What!?"
Xie Binghan was aghast.
His full-powered sword strike had actually been so utterly helpless!?
Boom!
Before Xie Binghan could recover, Ye Xuan's Thunder Tribulation Finger descended like Heaven's Punishment, directly enveloping and swallowing the two of them!
"Not good!"
The elder leading Danyang Academy's group cried out in alarm, but by then, it was already too late for him to act.
Thunder exploded and raged across the arena.
Xie Binghan and Yuan Zhan were blasted from the arena like dead dogs.
After they landed, everyone discovered that both of them had also been grievously wounded into unconsciousness!
The elder stepped forward to examine them, and in an instant, his expression changed drastically, turning deathly pale!
Xie Binghan's breath was as faint as a thread. His entire body was covered in charred, bloodied marks, and within his dantian, violent thunderous intent still lingered!
With a single finger, Xie Binghan's Dao Body had been crippled!
