Killing a Blazing Academy Student with Ruthless Techniques

When Chu Chen stepped onto the stage, thunderous cheers erupted around him. "Destruction! Destruction!"

His appearance had clearly become the focus of the entire venue. Especially since his opponent tonight was a Quasi Spirit King, countless spectators had flooded in for this match. It might have been the hottest match in recent days.

"Th-That's Chu Chen, isn't it?" Ye Lingling stared at the figure on the stage, her red lips slightly parted, her heart filled with shock.

She quickly understood. No wonder Chu Chen had said she would be able to watch his matches here... Chu Chen was Destruction.

Thinking of this, Ye Lingling could not help but find it both amusing and exasperating. So Destruction, whom Qin Ming had asked them all to observe, had been beside them all along.

Ye Lingling could recognize Chu Chen at a glance, but the others could not. Chu Chen's broad black robe had almost completely concealed his figure!

"Destruction, I know you. In yesterday's deathmatch, you did not use a single spirit ability. You are indeed arrogant, but I am a level-fifty Quasi Spirit King. Show me your full strength."

Chu Chen's opponent was named Huo Changkong. There were clearly many supporters of Huo Changkong in the arena, and they loudly shouted his name.

"That's Huo Changkong from Blazing Academy! I heard his Flame Eagle martial soul is incredibly domineering. It looks like Destruction has finally met a real opponent today!" someone shouted.

Chu Chen raised his head. His gaze beneath the black robe assessed Huo Changkong for a few moments before he said thoughtfully, "Someone from Blazing Academy?"

Huo Changkong looked at Chu Chen with an arrogant expression. After saying that, he spoke again. "Use your spirit abilities. Fight me fairly and openly!"

"There is no need. To me, you are no different from the man yesterday."

Chu Chen spoke calmly.

"You!"

Huo Changkong's expression turned incomparably grim. He no longer held back, releasing his two yellow and two purple Spirit Rings. Then his First Spirit Ring rose. "First Spirit Ability, Flame Eagle Possession!"

Accompanied by a clear cry from a Flame Eagle, blazing flames ignited all over Huo Changkong's body. His speed increased greatly under Martial Soul Possession, and he burst forward in a blur of afterimages.

Chu Chen moved as well. Blue-Gold Radiance flowed across the surface of his body, while surging Life Blood Qi circulated and formed invisible currents. His power was completely restrained as he charged forward.

Boom!

The moment they collided, Chu Chen felt the scorching heat rushing at him and threw another punch. His attacks were swift and clean, perfectly integrating these deadly combat techniques into his every movement.

What seemed like a retreat was actually an opportunity for Chu Chen to snap out a kick in an instant, using the movement of his body to drive an even more powerful attack!

Even when facing Huo Changkong, whose entire body was wreathed in flames, Chu Chen showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, Huo Changkong felt a chill in his heart. His Flame Eagle flames were extremely troublesome; not only were they incredibly hot, they could also invade the body.

"He is completely unaffected? Something is wrong!"

Huo Changkong wanted to widen the distance, but Chu Chen grabbed his arm. Before he could use another spirit ability, Chu Chen's knee strike, carrying sharp gusts of wind, slammed into his abdomen.

Huo Changkong grunted and staggered back repeatedly.

In that brief exchange, he had clearly fallen into a disadvantage. The power behind Chu Chen's combat techniques was immense, and his skill was equally formidable.

"His attacks have completely merged with his movements. What kind of fighting technique is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

Huo Changkong was deeply shocked.

Inside the VIP room, Xue Qinghe looked at Chu Chen with appreciation and a sense of mutual understanding. "I did not expect him to comprehend the new combat techniques we discussed last night so quickly."

"Haha, as expected of Brother Destruction."

Clearly, these new combat techniques were the result of his discussion with Chu Chen last night. The two had shared their experiences, combined the areas in which each excelled, and experimented until they developed entirely new techniques!

Xue Qinghe was becoming more and more interested in Chu Chen.

Not far away, Qin Ming and the others stared in shock. "Th-This is such a huge difference in firepower, and Huo Changkong even used a spirit ability. Yet Destruction still gained a complete upper hand?"

"What ruthless attack methods. He really is strong," Dugu Yan assessed seriously.

Listening to their evaluations of Chu Chen, Ye Lingling smiled with a hint of pride. Yet she did not show it, merely sitting quietly in the corner as she watched Chu Chen's match.

On the stage, Huo Changkong had completely reined in his earlier contempt. With a grave expression, he unleashed his second spirit ability.

"Second Spirit Ability, Flame Ring!"

Scorching flames condensed in his hand into a constantly spinning ring of fire. Wherever the Flame Ring passed, the air around it twisted, and the temperature in the arena grew searing hot.

Facing the tracking Spirit Ring Huo Changkong threw at him, Chu Chen struck out with his palm. A Blue Silver Emperor bloomed in his palm, gathering immense life force before detonating in an instant.

Boom!

To others, it appeared that Chu Chen had merely blasted apart Huo Changkong's Spirit Ring with a single palm strike. In truth, it was the instantaneous explosive force created when the Blue Silver Emperor condensed life force.

Even Blue Silver Grass, after Chu Chen's repeated cultivation and evolution, possessed not only undying and indestructible vitality, but also formidable explosive and offensive power.

Amid the firelight spreading in every direction, Chu Chen's figure appeared in an instant. His attacks were fierce, overwhelming Huo Changkong from all sides. Once Chu Chen got close, Huo Changkong did not even have time to use a spirit ability.

Pfft!

He was struck in the chest by Chu Chen's palm and coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Just as he was about to be knocked off the arena by another palm strike, a pair of Flame Wings unexpectedly emerged behind Huo Changkong, carrying him into the air. This was his Third Spirit Ability. After the Flame Wings possessed him, he gained the ability to fight in the air.

"Destruction, your arrogance is destined to lead to defeat! Fourth Spirit Ability, Endless Fire Curtain!" Huo Changkong unleashed his fourth spirit ability, and surging flames blocked everyone's vision.

Chu Chen lifted his eyes as Blue Silver Emperors burst from the ground one after another.

Boom!

The Blue Silver Emperors wrapped directly around Huo Changkong's body. Under Chu Chen's control, Life Energy was fully condensed within those Blue Silver Emperors. They exerted force and smashed Huo Changkong down from the air, sending him crashing heavily into the ground.

But Huo Changkong seized this chance to form a flaming dagger in his hand and slash it toward Chu Chen's throat.

Chu Chen erupted with Life Blood Qi, knocking the dagger away with one palm before sending Huo Changkong flying with a punch. His body drove forward in tyrannical close-quarters combat, every strike a killing move.

"How dare you kill me? I am from Blazing Acade—ugh!"

Huo Changkong let out a muffled groan. His entire body was blasted away like a dead dog. He fell to the ground, struggled a few times, and then went completely still. His limbs were twisted grotesquely, and he was clearly no longer human-shaped.

"Once you step onto the Deathmatch Arena, I do not care who you are," Chu Chen said indifferently. Then, amid the deafening cheers behind him, he slowly walked away.
