First Encounter

On the arena,

a scene almost beyond comprehension

made the deafening cheers and chatter all around swiftly die down.

Gaze after gaze converged on Shen Changchuan's arena,

but every face was blank with bewilderment,

almost exactly like Xiao Chenyang's!

Those drawn over by the sudden hush

exchanged looks after hearing what had happened from the people beside them,

unable to believe a word of it.

They could hardly be blamed.

It was simply too outrageous!

According to the witnesses,

the moment the fight began, one combatant had appeared behind the other as if he had flashed there, and pierced his chest?

And what did they mean, he had moved so fast that even the spectators couldn't see a trace of him making his move?

They had seen fights end almost as quickly as an instant kill

plenty of times.

Among the Jade Clarity Immortal Sect's inner disciples, some had witnessed Immortal Sect Dao Child Xuan Daoji defeat opponent after opponent with a single move in previous Inner Sect Grand Competitions.

But the problem was,

no matter how fast he was, he had still raised his hand to strike!

They might not have understood the changes in power behind the Dao Child's blow, or why such an ordinary-looking strike held such terrifying force,

but at least they could see its trajectory!

What, then, were they supposed to make of this fight between Shen Changchuan and Xiao Chenyang?

Not one of them had even caught a glimpse of Shen Changchuan making his move?

How fast did someone have to be for them not to see so much as his shadow?!

What kind of joke was this?!

The spectators included plenty of people at the Peak Ninth Level of the Out-of-Body Realm!

And even they hadn't caught the slightest glimpse of Shen Changchuan
