Mu Zhen slightly steadied his mindset, and his gaze lingered even more on Chen Lang.
Clearly, the opponent looked much younger than him, and the name Chen Lang had never been heard of among his peers.
An unknown kid like this also wanted to steal his fruit?
He probably didn't know what society's ruthless beatings meant!
While the opponent was sizing him up, Chen Lang was sizing up the opponent as well. Just from his spiritual perception, Chen Lang was able to determine that the opponent was a mage primarily cultivating the Lightning Element.
Even though Chen Lang hadn't planned on showing off, if it came down to a match against the Lightning Element, wouldn't that just be a one-sided slaughter for him...
After Pang Lai called their names, Chen Lang and Mu Zhen stood on opposite sides, preparing to fight.
With him and Chen Jin around, there was no need to look for any combat arena protected by an energy barrier.
Mu Zhen looked at the opposite Chen Lang, and said with a chuckle, "The junior seems very confident?"
When he was observing Chen Lang, he had already noticed the disdain in his eyes. However, in Mu Zhen's eyes, the person before him was nothing more than a clown putting on a show.
Or rather, he was probably spoiled rotten in his own family!
"Make your move, you only have one chance." Chen Lang naturally disdained boring verbal sparring, and said in a calm tone.
Mu Zhen frowned slightly, feeling a raging fire in his heart at this casual tone of his!
"Bzz bzz bzz..."
Without even needing Chen Lang to say anything, Mu Zhen had already finished drawing the Star Map.
"Bolt - Wild Dance!"
An incomparably thick bolt of lightning carrying a destructive aura bombarded toward Chen Lang, but Chen Lang stood there unmoved.
Pang Lai frowned and immediately said, "Old Chen, what is this kid of yours standing there like a fool for?"
Chen Jin also felt that Chen Lang was a bit arrogant, but thinking of all the things he had displayed, he was still willing to trust Chen Lang: "Don't rush, keep watching."
Pang Lai thought to himself: Damn it, such a lightning bolt without magic tool protection, without any defensive skills to block it, and he just stands there waiting to be struck?
"Rumble!!!"
Muffled thunder exploded, and everyone saw bolts of incomparably thick lightning strike Chen Lang's unprotected body.
Even a High-level mage would lose their life if subjected to such a bombardment without any protection!
However, after the thunder shattered, they all looked like fools!
Because Chen Lang had been standing there from beginning to end, and even though the area around him had turned completely charred, he himself didn't have the slightest reaction at all!!!
"You... you..."
Mu Zhen was also somewhat dumbfounded!
This kid without any fame was a monster!
He possessed a Great Spirit Seed configuration, yet after a lightning bolt went down, this kid came out completely unscathed?
When the opponent's attack ended, Chen Lang unhurriedly raised his hand and pointed toward the high altitude.
In an instant, thick dark clouds appeared above the clear, cloudless sky, and black currents flickered within the dark clouds...
"Whoosh!"
It was likewise a lightning bolt!
Yet compared to the previous lightning bolt, Chen Lang's lightning bolt was undoubtedly countless times stronger!
"Bang!!!"
"Boom boom boom!!!"
Mu Zhen didn't even have time to dodge, and in the span of a split second, he was submerged by this incomparably thick thunder...
When the lightning bolt ended, everyone saw that the armor magic tool wrapped around Mu Zhen's body was still smoking black, and the ground at his feet had even become split apart!
That was all caused by the lightning bolt just now!
Just with a casual skill, the superiority between the two sides was instantly judged.
"Oh, this magic tool is not bad after all..."
Chen Lang originally thought that he could already resolve the battle, but after the opponent put on a magic tool, he understood that he seemed to need to exert a bit of effort.
"Then, can you still take this blow?"
While speaking, the Constellation flashed and vanished, and dense lightning radiance converged into a single beam!
"Whoosh!"
The Lightning Bolt condensed into shape, making almost a hundred-meter sprint as it dashed straight toward Mu Zhen!
Mu Zhen already knew that the 'spirit seed' the opponent possessed was of a higher grade than his own, and he also intended to use High-level destruction.
Yet before he could even draw his Constellation, who would have thought that Chen Lang would strike again!
"Bang!!!"
"Swish swish swish!!!"
Before he could react any further, he was sent flying into the air by this Lightning Bolt!
The moment the Lightning Bolt exploded, the defensive magic tool on his body instantly shattered into pieces...
Pang Lai looked at Mu Zhen, who had been blasted flying, turned his head to look at Chen Jin, and said, "You really are willing to part with it. This is a Great Soul Seed, right!"
Chen Jin said casually, "Since we're going to participate in the world tournament, what we prepare must naturally be a bit more complete."
"No wonder..."
At this moment, Pang Lai suddenly understood why Chen Lang dared to endure Mu Zhen's lightning bolt, but he asked again, "That's not right either. How can his speed of casting High-level magic be so fast?"
It was one thing to reach High-level at such an age, but as it happened, he was actually able to complete High-level magic this swiftly.
This speed was almost identical to his own...
Chen Jin moved a bit closer to Pang Lai, and amidst Pang Lai's weird gaze, he said in a low voice, "This kid of mine, right at the very beginning of his awakening, possessed the One Thought Star Track. Unlike others, he doesn't just have the One Thought Star Track, he also has the One Thought Star Chart, the One Thought Constellation..."
Originally, Pang Lai still deeply disliked his sudden approach, but upon hearing about Chen Lang's outrageous innate talent, his eyeballs almost popped out!
What kind of magical freak was this?
Eighteen years old and High-level, and he even possessed the One Thought Constellation...
Chen Jin watched Pang Lai's expression and enjoyed it immensely, a smile forming across his wrinkled face: "Alright, your student has already lost his combat capability, you should go deal with the matter at hand first."
Pang Lai was quite curious about Chen Lang, but since Chen Jin put it that way, it wasn't convenient for him to continue gossiping.
Pang Lai arrived at the center of the arena, glanced at Mu Zhen, whose entire body was still tingling with numbness, and said seriously, "Mu Zhen, starting from today, you will become a member of the substitutes."
Was Mu Zhen unconvinced?
Of course he was.
Yet... he had truly and properly been defeated, and in front of the opponent, he was like an ant that could be kneaded at will.
If the destructive power from just now had been something he faced right at the start, he wouldn't have been able to resist it at all... Mu Zhen didn't understand when such an anomalous freak had appeared among his peers.
"Yes..."
Pang Lai's gaze turned back to Chen Lang, and he spoke, "From now on, you are an official member."
"Jiang Shaojun, I'll hand him over to you. Everyone else, continue cultivating; I don't want you to lose the next match!"
"Yes." Following Pang Lai's second roll call, a delicate-featured man walked out and answered in acknowledgment.
Having made the arrangements here, Pang Lai left the place.
Once Pang Lai left, Chen Lang began to size up this guy who only existed in his memories.
Unlike what he had imagined, he wasn't that kind of laughing and joking funny guy; instead, his expression was serious...
Jiang Shaojun arrived at Chen Lang's side, without any pleasantries, and went straight to the point: "Brother Chen, tell me about your magic elements."
"I primarily cultivate the Lightning Element, concurrently cultivate the Space Element, and sub-cultivate the Shadow Element..."
Hearing that Chen Lang's concurrent element was the Space Element, Jiang Shaojun was also somewhat surprised, and immediately said, "That's fantastic! Since your spiritual boundary is so strong, presumably your Space Element is very strong too!"
"It's alright... It's just that my cultivation level is a tiny bit low."
"Still lingering at the Intermediate Level?"
"Just reached the Intermediate Level not too long ago..."
"..."
Before you continue
