At the other end of the Battle Arena.

Chen Jianxuan was sending voice transmissions to the ten disciples before him.

"When the wheel battle begins, Che Qingyi, you go first. You're fast. Your main goal is to wear down his stamina. Don't confront him head-on."

"The Eternal Extreme Realm is acknowledged by heaven and earth. There is almost no chance of it being inflated. Do not underestimate him."

"Xiong Lie, you go last. You're the strongest. Once the others have exhausted Jun Wangyou, try to kill him in one strike!"

"Do you understand?"

Chen Jianxuan looked sternly at the ten of them.

"Understood!"

The ten nodded, eager to give it a try.

Before long, the female disciple named Che Qingyi walked into the arena.

She had a slender figure and a lovely face. Her footsteps made not the slightest sound. One look was enough to tell that her movement technique was exceptional.

In the Battle Arena, Jun Wangyou and Che Qingyi stood facing one another.

After exchanging salutes, they drew apart.

A breeze swept through the arena, stirring up sand and gravel.

On the surrounding stands, countless disciples watched with rapt attention.

"Huff."

Jun Wangyou took a deep breath and steeled himself.

Remembering True Man Qingwei's words, he could not help feeling nervous.

On the surface, this was a challenge where they would stop at the right moment.

But in truth, neither of them intended to stop. If they could kill the other, they would never settle for merely crippling them.

However, in the next moment, a dramatic scene unfolded.

Jun Wangyou stood where he was, his gaze fixed tightly on Che Qingyi as he thought.

If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move!

Che Qingyi's goal was to exhaust Jun Wangyou's stamina.

If Jun Wangyou did not move, there was nothing she could do.

Her strength lay in her movement technique, and she was confident she could evade any attack from Jun Wangyou.

But if she attacked first, Jun Wangyou might seize the opportunity and kill her in a single blow.

Facing someone in the Eternal Extreme Realm, Che Qingyi was under far greater pressure than Jun Wangyou.

And so, the two remained deadlocked in the arena.

At one side of the Battle Arena, True Man Qingwei watched the scene with a smile on his face.

He seemed to know Chen Jianxuan's strategy, occasionally shooting Chen Jianxuan a provocative look.

Chen Jianxuan's face darkened. After a moment, he finally could not endure it any longer.

He sent Che Qingyi a voice transmission, telling her to attack first.

Che Qingyi quickly sprang into action. Holding two short swords the length of her forearms, she moved with lightning-fast steps and charged at Jun Wangyou like a nimble serpent.

Jun Wangyou's expression was grave, his fists clenched tightly.

He did not know any movement techniques. In fact, he had barely fought at all.

The only thing that gave him confidence was his strength.

"As long as I touch her, I can win."

Jun Wangyou muttered silently to himself.

Very soon, after only a few breaths.

Che Qingyi rushed within five meters of Jun Wangyou.

She leaped high into the air, her twin swords crossed before her chest, seemingly intending to carve Jun Wangyou into four pieces.

Yet at that very moment, the world in Jun Wangyou's eyes changed.

Everything in motion became slow. Che Qingyi, suspended high in the air, seemed frozen in midair.

Jun Wangyou was briefly stunned by the sight, but he quickly reacted.

He easily seized Che Qingyi by the throat, spun around, and flung her viciously toward the ground.

But it was not over yet. Jun Wangyou swiftly clenched his fist and smashed it down.

That punch was aimed at Che Qingyi's head.

At that moment, choices appeared before Jun Wangyou.

[This is your first time killing someone, and she is even a female cultivator. You have the following choices.] [Choice 1: Give up the kill and stop at the right moment. You will receive the Gentleman title and gain the favor of every woman present, but disappoint the men and lose a precious life experience—Reward for this choice: Saint Halo.] [Choice 2: Continue and blow her head apart. You will receive the cheers of everyone present, but lose some women's favor and gain a precious life experience—Reward for this choice: Ruthless Flower Destroyer title.]

Jun Wangyou directly ignored the choices.

Whoever you are.

Anyone who wants my life.

Must die!

His fist came down!

Bang!

Red and white matter splattered across the ground.

[Congratulations, you have obtained the Ruthless Flower Destroyer title.] [Ruthless Flower Destroyer: When facing female enemies, attack power increases by 20%.]

Silence!

Deathly silence!

Everyone was stunned.

Everything that had just happened seemed incredibly slow in Jun Wangyou's eyes.

But to everyone else, it had all occurred in less than one-thousandth of an instant.

They saw Che Qingyi leap into the air, followed by Jun Wangyou's incomparably precise and swift attack.

He grabbed her throat, spun, slammed her into the ground, then punched her head apart.

Agile, swift, precise, ruthless.

That was all the spectators saw.

An instant kill!

An unquestionable instant kill!

The entire Battle Arena erupted.

Even True Man Qingwei was briefly stunned.

Then he laughed. "That brat struck so ruthlessly, yet he still pretended to be green. I worried for nothing."

On the other side, Chen Jianxuan froze for a moment, and then his face completely darkened.

Che Qingyi being instantly killed told him that he had severely underestimated Jun Wangyou's strength.

Such a swift and clean instant kill was practically an artistic performance.

Behind him, the remaining nine disciples had all gone pale.

Though Che Qingyi was somewhat weaker than them, the gap was not that large.

If Che Qingyi had been instantly killed in one move, they would likely meet the same end.

How were they supposed to fight now?

A wheel battle? They might as well line up one by one to offer up their heads.

In the arena, Jun Wangyou paid no attention to the others at all.

Even now, he remained immersed in that strange sensation from before.

That scene had been just like a movie he had watched in his previous life: when someone moved fast enough, time seemed to stop for them.

But just now, Jun Wangyou had not moved at all, yet time had still seemed frozen in his eyes.

"What... was that?"

Jun Wangyou looked at his hands, utterly bewildered.

He could not help thinking of the two innate divine abilities on his system panel.

One was Time Prohibition, and the other was Chaos Power.

"Was that one of my innate divine abilities? But... could this thing be a passive skill?"

Unlike Jun Wangyou, who was completely confused.

Master Pagoda, inside his storage space, was filled with shock.

He could not stop muttering to himself.

"As expected! Master truly inherited the invincible talent of his mother's race—Time Stop!"

"Even within the Space-Time Immortal Clan, one of the strongest races in the Immortal Realm, only one person in each generation can awaken this talent.

Yet unexpectedly, Master inherited it in this generation."

Master Pagoda was utterly shocked, but then he seemed to recall something, and his expression became even more astonished.

"Master inherited his mother's talent, so then... what about the talent of his father, Jun Tiandi?"

Master Pagoda's voice began to tremble.

But then he suddenly fell silent!

"Cannot think about it! Cannot think about it! That race carries a great terror!"

Back in the Battle Arena.

Jun Wangyou thought about it for a long time but could not make sense of anything, so he stopped thinking about it.

He turned and looked toward Chen Jianxuan.

Recalling how easily he had killed Che Qingyi, as though slaughtering a chicken, Jun Wangyou's confidence immediately soared.

He smiled and called out to Chen Jianxuan, "Martial Uncle Chen, let's save time. Have them all come at me together."

"All together?"

Chen Jianxuan, whose face had been dark, was slightly taken aback.

Then an unreadable smile appeared on his face as he calmly said, "It seems Martial Nephew Jun is very confident. Fine, I'll grant your request."

Turning his head, Chen Jianxuan looked at the people behind him and said:

"You go together. One person may be afraid, but surely nine together won't be, right?"

Hearing this, the nine disciples immediately sighed in relief. They had already been considering where they wanted to be buried.

Going up one by one was no different from seeking death.

But if they went together, they still had some confidence.

After all, the ten of them were already the strongest ten Qi Refining Realm cultivators of this generation in the Yin Yang Sacred Land.

If even they could not win.

Then the Yin Yang Sacred Land might as well disband.

Jun Wangyou would become invincible sooner or later anyway.

Disbanding now was no different from being beaten into disbanding later.
