The Second Strongest of the Younger Generation

Beside the resident elders, Xuan Zi silently gnawed on a chicken drumstick. Hearing others praise his disciple made him quite happy.

When they praised Qian Chaoyun, weren't they also praising him, a resident elder, for teaching well?

This was a good thing.

The Other Side, among the Inner Court Disciples.

Ma Xiaotao watched the two men in the arena fight with bloodshot eyes, her heart tense with worry. "Will Brother Chaoyun lose? If Dai Yueheng really tries to kill him, This Old Woman will kill him afterward."

Ling Luochen spoke from beside her. "You don't understand him well enough. He won't lose."

Ma Xiaotao's willow brows shot up at those words. She scrutinized Ling Luochen and said, "Ling Luochen, you're acting like you know him so well. Why didn't I notice you were so attentive before? You went out on one mission with Brother Chaoyun, and now you're speaking up for him?"

Ling Luochen folded her arms across her chest and replied coolly, "What does that have to do with you?"

Ma Xiaotao glared and snapped, "How is it none of This Old Woman's business? Tell me, did you steal my man?"

Ling Luochen immediately flared up.

As the well-known Ice Girl of the Inner Court, she could not tolerate Ma Xiaotao slandering her for no reason.

The next moment, Ling Luochen cursed, "Ma Xiaotao, do you know how to talk? If you don't, then shut up. I've never been like you—stealing men? Did he ever admit that he likes you?"

The two women's argument quickly reached the ears of the other Inner Court Disciples.

The Inner Court Disciples tacitly moved aside, leaving Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen room to keep arguing.

Whoever dared to break up their fight would be asking for trouble.

After all, this was not the first day they had argued. They fought all the time, and if they disagreed on a single word, they would start throwing hands.

In the Outer Court Spectator Area.

Dai Huabin watched his elder brother's exhausted figure and clenched his fists, a sense of powerlessness rising in his heart.

Still not enough?

Even Elder Brother couldn't do it. If this continued, Elder Brother would definitely lose.

Why? Why was that guy so strong?

He was only at Five Rings!

Damn it, why didn't that bastard just die?!

Wang Dong blinked her innocent eyes and smiled. "Dai Huabin, your brother looks like he's about to lose. Why do I feel like your Evil-Eyed White Tiger Spirit is nothing special either?"

"Nothing special, nothing special at all!!" Xiao Xiao added fuel to the fire for Wang Dong.

Huo Yuhao hurriedly covered both their mouths, so frightened that cold sweat broke out.

At a time like this, Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao really enjoyed stirring up trouble.

The other Outer Court Students all fell silent.

At this moment, Dai Huabin was like a tiger on the verge of madness, his anger bottled up inside.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Pointing at Wang Dong's nose, he cursed, "How dare you insult the Evil-Eyed White Tiger Spirit! In the New Student Competition, I'll make you kneel and apologize. I'll show you how powerful the Evil-Eyed White Tiger is."

"I'm so scared~" Wang Dong pointed at her pretty face and made a silly face.

Dai Huabin was so furious that his lungs nearly exploded.

Bastard!

This Wang Dong was just as vile as Huo Yuhao. She was nothing but trash!!

In the arena.

Qian Chaoyun had completely suppressed Dai Yueheng. His face was somewhat pale, but fortunately, Dai Yueheng was in even worse shape.

At this moment, Dai Yueheng resembled a true blood tiger.

Dai Yueheng had gone mad!

How could there be someone so difficult to deal with?

Could it be that the Evil-Eyed White Tiger Spirit truly was no match for the Angel Spirit?

However, Qian Chaoyun activated the skill of the Angel Torso Bone. Pointing his sword downward, he said, "It's time for your judgment. After this battle, the grudges between us will be settled."

In an instant, light burst forth in every direction.

The entire sky turned to daylight. The Daughter of the Angel appeared once more and grasped the Angel Holy Sword.

The three attributes of holiness, fire, and light instantly rose to their ultimate state.

"Fifth Soul Skill, Great Angel Seal Demon Slash."

At that moment, dazzling sword light surged into the heavens. A gigantic golden sword appeared and cleaved down from midair.

The expressions of many Inner Court Disciples changed drastically.

This strike was no longer something an ordinary Soul Emperor could withstand.

With the support of three Ultimate Attributes, Dai Yueheng was in trouble.

Du Wilun wanted to rush into the arena to save him, afraid that Dai Yueheng might face a life-and-death crisis, but Xuan Zi called out to stop him from nearby.

At this moment, Dai Yueheng faced the giant angel sword, his expression twisted as he roared, "No one in this world can fucking judge me! To hell with your judgment!"

"Sixth Soul Skill, White Tiger Destruction Kill."

In an instant, a massive character for "kill" locked onto Qian Chaoyun. Sharp white light erupted as a White Tiger phantom emerged behind Dai Yueheng, transforming into a ferocious tiger charging forward.

The giant angel sword descended, and the White Tiger phantom roared.

The strongest moves of both sides collided once more.

But this time, Qian Chaoyun's Combat Power was greater, and he had the support of three Ultimate Attributes. The White Tiger phantom lasted less than three seconds before shattering completely.

BOOM—!

The giant sword struck down, and the Soul Fighting Arena erupted with a deafening crash.

When everyone looked back, they found Dai Yueheng lying on the ground, gravely injured and completely unconscious.

A deep ravine had also appeared in the Soul Fighting Arena.

This sight shocked everyone.

Qian Chaoyun had done it.

The level-sixty-four White Tiger Soul Emperor, the second legend of this generation's Inner Court, had been defeated by a new Inner Court Disciple who had cultivated for less than two and a half years.

From this day onward, the second-ranked member of this generation's Inner Court had changed.

At the same time, Qian Chaoyun's Soul Power was exhausted, and he fell straight backward.

Ma Xiaotao leaped forward, wanting to catch her younger brother.

However, Ling Luochen was faster. She caught Qian Chaoyun in her arms first.

Ma Xiaotao's expression immediately darkened.

And Ling Luochen still dared to claim that they were Pure and Innocent at a time like this.

The Ling Luochen of the past had never interacted with any man. Yet it had only been a short while, and she was already competing with her for a man.

But now was not the time to argue, so Ma Xiaotao said nothing further.

"Elder Brother!"

Dai Huabin's expression changed on the spectator stands, and he rushed onto the fighting platform.

Watching his elder brother's miserable state, he clenched his fists.

Still... still not enough?

Why? Why had this happened? Spirit Hall had clearly been destroyed, so why were the remnants of the Angel still so strong?

It had to be because he had not worked hard enough. It had to be!

At that moment, Yan Shaozhe came to Dai Huabin's side and sighed. "Young Man, don't take grudges so seriously. Your brother already had grievances with him. They merely resolved them in another way."

Dai Huabin gritted his teeth and said, "So does that mean Qian Chaoyun can bully my elder brother?"

Hm?

Yan Shaozhe's mind suddenly had trouble processing that.

What did he mean, bully your elder brother?

This had been an assessment to begin with, and your elder brother was second only to Xiaotao.

Now that he had been defeated, it simply meant he had not worked hard enough in cultivation.

The Academy's resources had always been distributed equally. Sometimes, one needed to look for problems within oneself—had one cultivated diligently enough, had one's resources increased?

However, as a resident elder, Yan Shaozhe could not openly favor Qian Chaoyun.

Not long afterward.

Elder Zhuang appeared and released a Soul Skill to treat Dai Yueheng's injuries.

At this moment, Xuan Zi walked over while gnawing on a chicken drumstick. "Kid, Old Man can see that you have a heart set on revenge. How about this? Once you have the strength to contend with Qian Chaoyun, you can challenge him whenever you wish. Old Man will back you up."

"If Qian Chaoyun loses, Old Man will give you a Hundred Thousand Years Soul Bone. What do you say?"

Dai Huabin gritted his teeth. "It's a deal!"

"It's a deal," Xuan Zi said.

Having received the answer he wanted, Dai Huabin turned and left, unwilling to stay another moment.

He swore that one day, he would defeat Qian Chaoyun.

Huo Yuhao and the others watched Dai Huabin's retreating back and inexplicably felt rather satisfied.

Wang Dong stuck out her tongue and mocked, "Why doesn't he piss and look at himself? What makes him think he can catch up to Chaoyun? He's just a clown. Wait until I deal with you in the New Student Competition."

Xiao Xiao agreed, "Yes, yes, yes. Wang Dong is right."

But Huo Yuhao took another deep look at Dai Huabin and sighed.

Trying to catch up to Chaoyun, Dai Huabin was being far too delusional.
