Intelligence available.
When Chu Yunfei first entered the palace, he was clearly only at the First Level of the Heavenly Origin Realm.
Had he been concealing his cultivation level all along?
In the corner, Ling Chengxuan slowly put down the book in his hand.
The once calm and unwavering dark eyes finally revealed a true change. He thoughtfully examined Chu Yunfei, his fingertips silently tapping twice on his knee.
Ling Chenglie's face was so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
"That bastard..."
"He's been hiding his true strength from the very beginning!"
Qin Hao frowned deeply.
Last night, Chu Yunfei's aura was not this strong in front of the Pill Pavilion.
But now...
Was he hiding his true strength, or had he broken through several levels in just one night?
Qin Hao quickly dismissed the second possibility.
He broke through four levels in one night.
Even if the Cangyun Sect used all its resources, it would be impossible to achieve this.
"So what if you're at the Heavenly Origin Realm Fifth Layer?"
Qin Hao snorted coldly in his heart.
" Wu Changge is at the Eighth Level of the Heavenly Origin Realm, still three levels higher than him."
Only Shen Qianyue felt a storm raging in his heart.
The Divine Sea Realm elder who had followed Ling Xueyao for many years had a stiff face and disbelief in his eyes.
Others may not know, but he knows all too well.
Chu Yunfei was definitely not hiding his strength.
When Chu Yunfei left Qingyang City, he was only at the Ninth Level of the Spirit Martial Realm.
When I first arrived in the imperial city, I was indeed only at the First Level of the Heavenly Origin Realm.
But now... in just a few days, he's broken through four levels!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Shen Qianyue would never have believed that anyone in the world could possess such a cultivation speed.
He gave Chu Yunfei a deep look, then subconsciously glanced at Ling Xueyao beside him.
Ling Xueyao's face beneath the veil was as calm as still water.
She knew the reason, of course.
But she couldn't possibly tell a third person the reason.
But looking at the shocked and bewildered faces of everyone, the corners of her lips couldn't help but turn up slightly.
Although this man was so shameless last night that she wanted to kill him with a sword.
But it must be admitted that Chu Yunfei, standing in the center of the crowd at this moment, was indeed so dazzling that it was impossible to look away.
After a brief moment of surprise, Wu Changge's fighting spirit not only did not diminish, but intensified.
"Good!"
"That's more interesting!"
He stomped his feet hard.
Bang!
The bluestone ground exploded.
Wu Changge moved like a cannonball, instantly covering several meters and delivering a punch straight to Chu Yunfei's face.
There are no martial arts skills.
Only the purest blood, spiritual energy, and physical strength.
Before the punch even landed, strands of hair at Chu Yunfei's temples were already flying backward.
Chu Yunfei held his sword horizontally in front of him.
clang!
The fist slammed into the Abyss-Devouring Sword.
The sound of metal clashing echoed throughout the hall, as dark gold spiritual energy and crimson blood energy exploded simultaneously.
Chu Yunfei did not move his feet.
Wu Changge was forced back half a step by the force of the recoil.
"What a heavy sword!"
Wu Changge's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he lunged forward again.
Left punch, right elbow, knee.
His moves were devoid of any fancy techniques; every attack targeted the most vulnerable parts of the human body, as fierce and powerful as a humanoid monster.
Chu Yunfei held the Abyss-Devouring Sword, sometimes blocking horizontally, sometimes slashing diagonally. His movements were not fast, but they were steady and without the slightest flaw.
Bang bang bang!
The two collided repeatedly.
Ten moves.
Twenty moves.
Fifty moves!
Jingyuan Hall, air currents surged and array patterns flickered continuously.
Wu Changge grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed.
Chu Yunfei was clearly only at the Heavenly Origin Realm Fifth Layer, yet his spiritual power seemed inexhaustible, and each swing of his sword was so heavy that it made his arm go numb.
What's even more terrifying is that the opponent's physical body is no weaker than his.
He abandoned his attack on the Abyss-Devouring Sword several times, instead aiming his fists directly at Chu Yunfei's shoulder and chest, but Chu Yunfei blocked them all with his fists and palms.
Not at a disadvantage!
Wu Mingyue had already sat up straight, and the ease in her beautiful eyes had completely disappeared.
"This guy's physical body..."
"He can actually stand up to his brother head-on?"
Qin Hao's expression was equally gloomy.
He had initially thought that Lin Yue's decisive defeat was due to underestimating his opponent.
It now seems that even if Lin Yue had known Chu Yunfei's strength beforehand, the outcome would not have changed.
In the arena, Wu Changge threw another punch.
Chu Yunfei knocked him away with a single sword strike and said calmly, "That's enough for the warm-up."
Wu Changge's eyes narrowed.
"Come on, come on!"
Chu Yunfei flipped his wrist.
Dark gold spiritual energy surged into the Abyss-Devouring Sword along the meridians of his right arm.
The first sword strike landed.
Clang!
A sword flashed across the sky.
Wu Changge crossed his arms and used the Divine Martial Sect Sect's protective secret technique to block the sword strike, sliding three steps backward.
Before the first sword strike had even dissipated, Chu Yunfei had already taken a step forward.
Second sword strike, rise!
The two sword techniques converged perfectly on the Abyss-Devouring Sword.
Buzz!
The sword vibrated violently.
A sword light over twenty feet long swept across the main hall, its power several times greater than the first sword strike.
The Sea-Overturning Ninefold Sword!
Wu Changge's pupils contracted, and he threw out both fists simultaneously.
" Mountain-Subduing Fist!"
A crimson mountain phantom materialized behind him and slammed forward with the force of his fist.
Boom! The sword light and the fist imprint collided head-on.
The crimson mountain could not withstand the attack for even two breaths before it was cleaved in two by the layers of overlapping sword energy.
The remaining sword force struck Wu Changge's arms.
Bang! Wu Changge was forced back several steps.
One step, five steps, ten steps...
It wasn't until the seventeenth step that he managed to stand firmly.
My arms kept going numb, and my blood and qi surged violently inside my body.
Chu Yunfei did not pursue.
The Abyss-Devouring Sword pointed diagonally at the ground, and the second sword aura slowly dissipated.
Wu Changge glanced down at his trembling arm, then looked at Chu Yunfei.
He still has a trump card up his sleeve.
Once unleashed, their combat power can rise several levels.
However, with the Seven Sects Grand Competition approaching, it was his crucial trump card in the battle for rankings, and he shouldn't have revealed it prematurely during a banquet sparring session.
Moreover, Chu Yunfei also did not go all out.
That sword technique just now clearly had more than two moves.
If the fight continues, the outcome remains uncertain.
Wu Changge remained silent for a moment, then suddenly withdrew his fist and spoke frankly, "My cultivation level is three levels higher than yours, yet you forced me back seventeen steps."
"I lost this battle."
He did not become angry or embarrassed.
He didn't offer a single excuse for himself.
Wu Changge looked at Chu Yunfei, his eyes filled with undisguised admiration and fighting spirit.
" Chu Yunfei, you are indeed qualified to be my opponent."
The expressions on the faces of the people inside the hall varied.
The Holy Son of the Divine Martial Sect actually admitted defeat!
Looking at the figure in black in the arena, Ling Xueyao felt her heart beating faster than usual.
That bastard.
When they get serious, they can be quite captivating.
Just then, Yue Chenzhou stood up again.
His expression was much more serious than before.
However, the Puppet Sect's methods never depend solely on cultivation level.
Yin Soul Art, Battle Puppet, Divine Soul Hidden Force.
Any of these methods can take a person's life when they are least expecting it.
"Since the Holy Son Wu has finished fighting..."
Yue Chenzhou slowly walked to the center of the arena. "Next, it's my turn."
On the other side, Qin Hao also suddenly stood up.
Chu Yunfei defeated the true disciple of the Cangyun Sect and the holy son of the Divine Martial Sect in front of everyone, and his fame has overshadowed all of them.
Furthermore, Lin Yue's body was still lying under the dragon pillar.
If Qin Hao doesn't cripple Chu Yunfei today, he will become a laughingstock in the entire capital.
Yue Chenzhou.
Qin Hao made no attempt to conceal his murderous intent.
" Lin Yue is a disciple of my Cangyun Sect, so this match should be my turn!"
The two holy sons stepped forward from their seats simultaneously.
Their eyes met, neither willing to back down.
Chu Yunfei watched the two arguing, a hint of impatience flashing in his eyes.
He raised the Abyss-Devouring Sword and spoke calmly.
"You two, come at me together, I'm in a hurry."
