Lu Ci then planned to use a new tactic.

He raised his arm, but it was all for naught.

The thin thread at the tip had somehow gotten tangled in his own arm, and the moment it tightened, it was even sharper than a gleaming blade. The front half of both hands fell off neatly, and because the cutting was so fast, he didn't even feel any pain at first.

The high priest in red robes looked around at the fallen priests and asked the people from the Eastern Continent with great interest, "Did you enjoy the killing?"

The people from the Eastern Continent around her attacked simultaneously, bombarding her with countless items and extraordinary skills.

Those who are here today are at least high-ranking members of the Philanthropy Group, the " Tower Climber."

He possesses countless treasures and extraordinary skills.

Any other enemy could be overwhelmed by sheer numbers, but this time he was facing a mysterious, invincible monster with unparalleled strength.

Even Lu Ci's combination technique failed, so these haphazard attacks are even less likely to be effective.

Amidst the chaotic light and dust, the red-robed high priest rose slowly into the air, completely immaculate.

With a press of his left hand, everyone from the Eastern Continent fell to the ground in unison, none able to resist regardless of their strength.

With a raise of his right hand, the priest of the Western Continent was completely transformed, instantly returning to normal as long as he wasn't truly dead, regardless of whether he was still breathing.

"How utterly foolish!" The high priest in red robes, now airborne, looked at Lu Ci and the others still struggling on the ground, his tone filled with pity. "Don't you understand? We, the members of our church, are blessed by God and are immortal! The sooner you give up resisting, the less suffering you'll endure."

"Pooh!"

Some people below scoffed; although they were lying on the ground unable to get up, their mouths could still open.

The stubborn man stubbornly raised his head and stubbornly spat at the red robe in mid-air.

Some even mocked her for overestimating herself, saying that once Wang Wen arrived, she would make her wish she were dead.

" Wang Wen?"

A hint of hatred flickered in the eyes of the high priestess Shi Yuanyuan, who no longer needed to wear glasses.

From the very beginning, when she was infiltrating the Eastern Continent, she discovered that Wang Wen's strength was strange.

Several times, they used the Tiansheng Group, which was under the control of the church, to force him to fight, but he suffered repeated defeats.

The Second Consortium in the Eastern Continent can't even handle a mere student? That's outrageous!

Filled with doubts, she resorted to various methods in an attempt to get close to Wang Wen through Cheng Queyi.

For some reason, he was consistently rejected.

It was as if they had already seen through her true identity.

After the Tiansheng Group collapsed, even Cheng Queyi stopped paying attention to her.

Since then, every time I hear Wang Wen's name, I notice that she has grown even taller.

It keeps getting higher and higher!

From the Academy student who was unafraid to confront Tiansheng, to Teacher Wang who joined forces with Philanthropy Group to acquire Tiansheng, and then to the one who overturned the model of the top ten conglomerates and became a unique and unshakeable behemoth.

Finally, he simply proclaimed himself a tyrant, imprisoned all his rivals, seized all the financial backers behind them, unified the Eastern Continent, and became the undisputed number one person in the world.

This became the biggest and most difficult obstacle in Shi Yuanyuan's long-term plan.

Without eliminating Wang Wen, the unification of the Western Continent will forever remain just a plan.

Previously, Shi Yuanyuan did not possess much divine power; she had a wealth of skills but was limited by her abilities.

After a few matches, I realized that Wang Wen was like a damn nouveau riche who didn't cherish her divine power at all and just recklessly charged in whenever she made a move.

Those times.

She was scared.

There's no denying I'm afraid.

She feared that her divine power would be exhausted by Wang Wen, a stubborn and reckless man, causing her years of hard work to be ruined.

I'm even more afraid of losing to him!

Even though the amount of divine power he exuded was not as much as hers, she was still afraid.

That's a kind of imposing presence.

An indomitable spirit.

Wang Wen always seems to possess an undeniable and powerful self-confidence, as if she has everything under control.

This kind of powerful and confident aura can easily make opponents doubt themselves.

There are suspicions that he may still be hiding some trump card that could turn the tide.

I doubt whether I have made thorough preparations and have not revealed any flaws.

So, she compromised back then.

Feigning peace talks while secretly plotting to win over those around Wang Wen through appeasement.

When the opportunity arises, the Isolation Grand Formation, which has been practiced for many years, will be enough to give these Eastern Continent Tower Climber "rely" on the World Tower a good beating.

In fact.

The Isolation Grand Formation was indeed effective.

Even the true god on the 800th floor of the World Tower couldn't withstand it. That guy named He Jiong was beaten into a pulp. Mi Lailai's escape had nothing to do with the World Tower; it was purely due to his personal ability and the incompetence of the junior priests below.

The Isolation Grand Formation she personally oversaw even trapped Wang Wen.

Unable to use World Tower items and extraordinary skills, Wang Wen had no choice but to grit her teeth and rely on her energy.

This was the most perfect outcome she had planned.

One person competing with a team of dozens or even hundreds of times more people!

How do you spell it?

It's laughable just thinking about it.

Even more ridiculous is...

That person won the fight.

The person who was inferior to me just half a month ago has reappeared with such a huge increase in divine power, and single-handedly defeated all the elite priests of the church.

Shi Yuanyuan is in great pain.

Humiliation and despair.

She hated Wang Wen, she hated this man who ruined all her hard work.

today.

She stood once again on the Eastern Continent.

With a brand new body and brand new power, they returned here.

She no longer needs to be afraid, no longer needs to compromise or submit, and no longer needs to wear a mask to hide herself.

She finally understood the exhilaration Wang Wen felt, of being able to use her divine power freely without having to cherish it.

She wanted Wang Wen to know that she would take back everything she had lost today!

She wanted to show Wang Wen that he was actually useless except for having more energy! And she now had a whole new power that she could squander to her heart's content!

She wanted to show Wang Wen that a brute with only energy but no skill would never have the last laugh! Only someone like her, blessed by the gods and possessing both energy and skill, was worthy of unifying the Western Continent and becoming the master of the world!

" Wang Wen!"

"Come out and face your death!"

Standing in the air, Shi Yuanyuan listened to the jeers of the people on the ground, roared angrily, and pressed down with both hands. All the people from the Eastern Continent in this area of the Academy gate, including Lu Ci, turned into dust!

For a moment, the room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

Even the priests of the Western Continent were so shocked by the scene before them that they couldn't utter a sound, forgetting even to cheer or flatter.

However, Shi Yuanyuan herself was somewhat dazed at how so many living lives had been so easily destroyed in succession.

The new power bestowed by God is truly extraordinary!

Just as she let out a soft breath, trying to calm her agitated emotions, a distant "Pah!" echoed from the Academy's teaching building.

Standing atop a high rooftop, under Ren Ruanruan Ruanruan's careful protection, Gu Jianbing raised a megaphone and shouted with all his might at Shi Yuanyuan, who was flying in the air. "You reptiles from the Western Continent, if you want to kill Wang Wen, you'll have to eat this old man's kick first!"

He stomped his right foot and roared, "Activate the mechanical array!"
