Zheng Siqi Is a Heaven's Chosen? The Central Continent's Standards Are Too Low
Wang Chun had just witnessed Chen Xingci's fight with Xiao Ye and knew that the opponent was incredibly strong.
However, I have figured out its fighting style and have already come up with a countermeasure.
He immediately leaped onto the arena and solemnly declared, "Wang Chun of the Northern Plains Profound Ice Hall greets Fellow Daoist Chen. Please make your move."
Chen Xingci into laughter. "I haven't had enough fun defeating Xiao Ye of the Southern Barbarians yet. I hope you won't disappoint me."
Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Wang Chun's eyes, and he sneered:
"Then you'd better be careful. I'm not Xiao Ye; I won't be able to be completely restrained by you just because I'm slower."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took out three Xuanbing thorns and formed hand Hand Seals.
The Xuanbing Thorn instantly transformed into three streaks of light, moving as fast as meteors, forming a triangle as it hurtled straight at the opponent.
Upon seeing this attack, Chen Xingci's eyes narrowed slightly. He then moved swiftly like a ghost, simultaneously wielding his flying sword to meet the Xuanbing Thorn.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Three muffled thuds rang out in succession, and the flying sword and the Xuanbing dagger were each sent flying backward by the impact.
Immediately afterwards, the two activated their magical Law Treasure again, their flying swords and Xuanbing thorns clashing and fighting fiercely in the air.
Wang Chun manipulated the Xuanbing Spikes, continuously attacking Chen Xingci from three different angles;
However, Chen Xingci was too fast, his figure like the wind, nimbly dodging while using his flying sword to counterattack.
For a moment, the sound of weapons clashing on the arena filled the air, and figures darted around as the two fought to a standstill, locked in a stalemate.
A cold glint suddenly flashed in Wang Chun's eyes. He formed hand seals and let out a loud shout that shook the entire area, "Icebound for a Thousand Li!"
Before he finished speaking, an overwhelming, chilling aura suddenly swept out and rushed straight towards Chen Xingci.
Wherever it passed, layers of thick ice instantly formed on the arena, and even the air seemed to freeze.
Chen Xingci's expression changed drastically. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately shouted in a deep voice, "Wind Slaying Sword!"
In an instant, the flying sword's speed doubled, transforming into a dazzling streak of light that pierced through the icy air and appeared before Wang Chun in a flash.
With a crisp "crack," the flying sword first pierced through Wang Chun's spiritual energy shield, and then slammed into his protective armor.
Wang Chun grunted and was sent flying backward, spitting out blood as he crashed heavily onto the stage.
He stared at Chen Xingci in horror, finally understanding why Xiao Ye had been unable to withstand the opponent's attack earlier.
The sheer speed of the Wind Slaying Sword can only be truly appreciated through personal experience.
A bitter look crossed his face. Back in the Northern Plains, he was a highly regarded prodigy, but upon arriving in the Central Continent, he was defeated so easily.
He took a deep breath and said bitterly, "Fellow Daoist Chen's strength is extraordinary; I, Wang, am ashamed to admit my inferiority."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xingci smiled arrogantly, "Your strength is not bad, it did give me some trouble. However, that's all."
Seeing Chen Xingci's arrogant demeanor, Wang Chun felt unconvinced and immediately retorted:
"I admit you are stronger than me, but there are many people in Northern Plains who are stronger than me. Your defeat of me is really nothing."
Moreover, the other four regions of the Azure Firmament Continent are teeming with experts. Even in our Eastern Region, there are countless people stronger than you.
After saying that, he didn't even look at Chen Xingci's suddenly ugly face, jumped off the stage, and went straight back to his seat.
He raised his hand, took out a healing pill, swallowed it, and then circulated his internal energy to treat his injuries.
"Hmph, I'd like to see just how capable those so-called geniuses of the Northern Plains, whom you claim are stronger than you, really are."
Chen Xingci coldly, his gaze suddenly shifting to Zheng Siqi and Lin Jing below the arena, his tone clearly provocative:
"You two, are you the Northern Plains prodigies that Wang Chun mentioned, the ones stronger than them?"
"If you have the guts, come up into the ring and let me see if you're really that strong."
Hearing Chen Xingci's provocation and seeing all eyes on him and Lin Jing, Zheng Siqi helplessly spoke:
"I am not from Northern Plains; you have mistaken me for someone else."
Chen Xingci was taken aback, his brows furrowing instantly. He pressed on, "Could it be that you are a prodigy from the Southern Barbarians?"
"I'm not from the Southern Barbarians either," Zheng Siqi shook his head slightly, his tone calm. "I come from the Eastern Desolation."
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene erupted in an uproar, and everyone's eyes fell on Zheng Siqi and Lin Jing, their faces full of surprise.
"So they're from the Eastern Desolation! I never expected that this Yuntian Heaven's Chosen Tea Party would include not only prodigies from the Southern Barbarians and Northern Plains, but also prodigies from the Eastern Desolation."
"This year's Heaven's Chosen Tea Party is really interesting. I just wonder how strong these two Eastern Desolation really are?"
"Heh, I doubt it. They're probably not even as good as Xiao Ye and Wang Chun. After all, the overall strength of the Southern Barbarians and the Northern Plains is a notch above that of the Eastern Desolation."
"That's right! In the past, when the geniuses of the Eastern Desolation went to the Central Continent, none of them produced any famous figures. They were only slightly better than those of the Western Rivers."
"If Chen Xingci defeats these two Eastern Desolation, he will have defeated the prodigies of three regions in the Eastern Region in a single day, and he will definitely become famous Central Continent."
"If I had known, I would have gone up and challenged them first. Maybe I would be the one famous all over the world now."
Chen Xingci stared at Zheng Siqi and Lin Jing in surprise, then suddenly threw his head back and burst into laughter, his voice filled with excitement:
"Excellent! This is wonderful! I have already defeated the prodigies of the Southern Barbarians and the Northern Plains. Now, if I can defeat you as well, I will have defeated the prodigies of the three Eastern Region."
At this moment, the number of viewers in Zheng Siqi's live stream was skyrocketing, exceeding 50 billion in just a few moments.
And it's still rising rapidly, with donations and bullet comments pouring in like a tidal wave.
"Chen Xingci is too arrogant! Zheng Siqi, you hurry up and beat him up. If you dare to go up, I'll give you a reward immediately."
"This Chen Xingci is incredibly arrogant! If you had Chen Jie's strength, being as arrogant as him would be one thing, but with your skill level, you might not even be able to beat me."
"Hilarious! He actually mistook Zheng Siqi for a prodigy from the Eastern Desolation."
"If he knew that Zheng Siqi couldn't even crack the Dao Image Realm Combat Power Rankings in our Eastern Desolation, he wouldn't even be on the list, I wonder what his expression would be?"
"Zheng Siqi, don't back down! They're treating you like a prodigy from the Eastern Desolation. Stand up and beat him to a pulp!"
Faced with the jeers from the viewers in the live stream and Chen Xingci's provocation, Zheng Siqi shook her head helplessly:
"Fellow Daoist Chen, you misunderstand. Our strength is nothing special in the Eastern Desolation; we are merely ordinary cultivators."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xingci looked incredulous. "Why are you being so modest? You must be a prodigy to have passed the entrance test for the Heaven's Chosen Tea Party."
Are you afraid of losing and don't dare to go on stage?
"Fellow Daoist Chen, what I just said is indeed the truth."
Zheng Siqi patiently explained, "I wouldn't call myself a prodigy in the Eastern Desolation, but by the standards of your Central Continent, I might be considered one."
These words even made the host, Wei Jiaming, unable to remain silent.
Zheng Siqi's words clearly implied that the standards for the tea party Central Continent Plains Prodigies and the Yuntian Heaven's Chosen Tea Party were too low.
"Fellow Daoist, I should be pleased that you have come to the Yuntian Heaven's Chosen Tea Party."
While I can understand your self-deprecation as not being a prodigy in order to save face for the Eastern Desolation, it is a bit too much for you to deliberately belittle the standards for prodigies in the Central Continent.
Everyone in the entire Eastern Region knows that our Central Continent is a land of outstanding people and abundant resources, with standards for geniuses far exceeding those of the other four regions.
Chen Xingci frowned, his tone filled with dissatisfaction. "I understand that you're afraid of losing. But it's too much to belittle yourself as someone who isn't a prodigy."
Could it be that your standards for geniuses in the Eastern Desolation are higher than those in our Central Continent?
