"Such powerful attack!"
Chen Mu was secretly shocked; this was the first time his defensive shield had been breached in a single move.
Mingye and A Huo flashed into view, appearing on either side of Ji Ci from behind, and attacked him simultaneously!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
This was the first time Ji Ci had encountered such a situation. His opponent could appear anywhere around him at will, and before he could react, he was hit by several blows, causing his protective armor to break one after another.
"Let me show you what I, Old Ox, am capable of!"
Niu Buqu seized the opportunity to enter the talisman array and charged directly at Chen Duo.
He could sense that Chen Duo's location was crucial, and that Chen Duo wasn't very strong, so he wanted to eliminate her first.
The All Things in Myriad Phenomena, the Yama Hell!
The giant axe in his hand burst into blue flames, forming a humanoid phantom behind him, and slammed it down hard onto the ground in front of Chen Duo.
Boom boom boom!
A series of explosions rang out, and the ground was smashed like an erupting volcano, spreading towards the center of the array.
Chen Mu had just repaired the array base that had been shaken by Ji Ci's attack when he unexpectedly encountered danger again at the central array plate. He sighed inwardly, thinking that martial artists at the True Spirit Realm were indeed not simple.
He took out his Dharma-Breaking Staff, flashed behind Niu Buqu, and swung it at him.
Niu Buqu a great deal of energy; his old strength was exhausted and he had not yet generated new strength, so he had no choice but to use his body to withstand the blow!
He groaned, his face flushed, and he barely managed to pull through.
He then swung his arm, used his axe to force Chen Mu back, and continued running towards Chen Duo.
Bang bang bang!
After the smoke and fire at the center of the array plate dissipated, Chen Duo, looking somewhat disheveled, was revealed. She fired three shots in quick succession with her Rune Gun.
Clang! Clang!
A deep cyan aura suddenly appeared around Niu Buqu, which weakened the power of the bullets, and he easily shot them down.
Seeing that the opponent had already closed in on her, Chen Duo didn't dare to leave because she had to protect the array plate in the middle. So she took out the Dharma-Breaking Staff and smashed it at Niu Buqu.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Mu appeared above Niu Buqu's head and slammed his stick down.
"I refuse to believe you can hurt me!"
The azure light emanating from his body surged once more. Unlike the azure light emanating from the nameplate, the azure light emanating from his body carried a dense, chilling aura, like a vengeful ghost from hell, corroding everything in its path.
Protected by the blue light, he neither dodged nor avoided, and swung his axe at Chen Duo.
With a bang, Chen Duo's body instantly turned into white light and vanished, while the nameplate on her body was grabbed by Niu Buqu.
Chen Mu watched Chen Duo's figure disappear, although he knew she was not in any danger, he couldn't help but feel furious.
"You're asking for it!!"
The Dharma-Breaking Staff in his hand shone brightly and struck Niu Buqu hard on the head.
With a thud, Niu Buqu's body fell to the ground, and the blue light emanating from his body dimmed considerably.
"Hehe, he's not dead!"
The fallen Niu Buqu incredibly tenacious, and surprisingly, it rolled over and stood up again.
Chen Mu was furious. He threw out several talismans, flipped his hands, and slammed them down again.
Niu Buqu was about to retaliate, he found himself facing tremendous resistance and unable to move.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Niu Buqu was like a statue, being hit more than a dozen times by Chen Mu Mulian, making him grimace in pain, until finally he couldn't hold on any longer.
"You're actually... a talisman master?"
After uttering his last words, he vanished completely in a flash of white light.
After defeating Niu Buqu, Chen Mu immediately rushed towards Ji Ci's direction to assist A Huo and Mingye.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
As a martial artist at the True Spirit Realm, Ji Ci possessed extremely formidable cultivation. Even with A Huo and Mingye's ability to teleport using the formation, they could only barely gain the upper hand and were unable to defeat him for the time being.
However, when Chen Mu arrived, he could no longer hold on, and after a short while, Ji Ci turned into white light and disappeared.
Just as Chen Mu and his two companions were about to sit down and rest, they noticed seven beams of azure light rushing toward them from afar.
He glanced around and immediately understood what was going on: the Yuan-Zhou Alliance's Star Array had been breached, and now only his group remained in the entire examination hall.
A moment later, all the new students in the entire examination hall gathered around Chen Mu's array.
"As the saying goes, greed knows no bounds! Your strength is mediocre; it's already extremely difficult for you to maintain your current ranking. Leave now to avoid further suffering!"
Although Niu Buqu and Ji Ci disappeared from this position, most people believed it was due to their infighting. Although it was a bit strange, no one thought about it in detail.
After Chen Mu and his two companions picked up Ji Ci and Niu Buqu's nameplates, they now had more nameplates than most people on the field. Based on the current situation, all three of them could secure a place in the top five.
Seeing the situation, the others naturally stopped fighting and rushed over.
"Enough talk, just come and take the nameplate if you want it!"
Now that Chen Mu and his two companions are definitely in the top ten, he doesn't care anymore and might as well have a good fight.
With little time left in the competition, no one dared to waste any more. Upon hearing Chen Mu's answer, they immediately rushed angrily into the rune array.
"Young man, I'll hold one off for you. How about you share some of the nameplates with me later?"
At this moment, the Mad Daoist actually made a loud suggestion with a grin.
"No problem!"
Chen Mu readily agreed.
Everyone else looked surprised, but the Mad Daoist was often erratic and unpredictable, so everyone assumed he was having another episode of his madness and didn't pay much attention.
"Haha! Yin Zhan, we were evenly matched before, let's have another match!!"
The Mad Daoist, his body surging with Spiritual Power, chose to keep Yin Zhan behind.
Without Yin Zhan and the Mad Daoist, only five people remained to attack Chen Mu's talisman array. Among them, Zhuang Linyi was naturally the strongest. She wielded her long whip with ever-changing and astonishing power.
" The Five Elements Rotation, Earth is the element!"
Chen Mu once again used the Earth Gravity to restrain everyone's movement!
"Kill!"
Chen Mu and his two companions were now working together more and more seamlessly, immediately unleashing their killing move as they teleported simultaneously to the side of a man.
Boom! Ding ding ding!
All three of them used all their strength. In one exchange, the opponent's protective armor shattered, and after another move, he was blasted into white light and disappeared.
After Chen Mu and his two companions teleported, the others realized that this formation was not easy to deal with and immediately became more vigilant.
"Attack that dagger! That dagger is the core of the formation!"
Zhuang Linyi, from a family with a long history of learning and broad knowledge, was able to spot the weakness of the formation at a glance.
Boom! Boom!
Several attacks flew toward the center of the array plate, but were blocked by a transparent membrane.
"Hmph! I'll smash you all to death with talismans!"
Having been caught off guard by Niu Buqu before, Chen Mu was not about to make the same mistake again. After killing Ji Ci, he used dozens of talismans to set up several layers of defensive shields at the center of the formation.
Chen Mu and his two companions pressed on, choosing another slightly weaker opponent to surround and attack.
