He Must Have Been Personally Refined by a Highly Skilled Martial Dao Senior

Just as everyone expected.

The second game, the third game, the fourth game...

In the ensuing battles, all those whose cultivation level had not reached the Saint King Realm ultimately suffered defeat.

These descendants of the Shen Clan employed various methods, some excelling in direct attacks, others in flanking maneuvers, some in explosive bursts of power, and others in attrition warfare.

The only difference, however, is the timing of their defeats.

"To be fair, Gu Chen of the Withering and Flourishing Sect did a pretty meticulous job. The Shen Clan's prodigies have already tried their best, but it seems they haven't managed to extract much from them."

Some people, reflecting on Gu Chen's earlier performance, came to this conclusion.

But most people still didn't find it surprising.

All the participants in this battle were juniors, and for them, the difference in skill level had an especially significant impact.

Even at the first level of the Saint King Realm, there is a huge gap between the Saint Realm and even the Saint Realm Ninth Layer.

"It's almost been forty matches, and the Shen Clan is still only sending out Saint Realm Ninth Layer. Is it really that rare for the Shen Clan to have Saint King Realm among their juniors?" Someone secretly shook their head.

Some people are impatient:

"The Shen Clan's actions are truly boring. Anyone who didn't know better would think the Shen Clan couldn't produce any more capable people."

Some people even closed their eyes and said to the Human Dao next to them:

"I'll go cultivate for a while. Call me again when Gu Chen of the Withering and Flourishing Sect is at a disadvantage."

Of course, those familiar with the Shen Clan knew this in their hearts.

The Shen Clan probably didn't do this intentionally.

After all, this is the training model of the Shen Clan.

Although Shen Wentian's control over the resources for nurturing the younger generation of the Shen Clan is not to the point that other members of the clan will lack resources.

However, insufficient resources will inevitably have an impact.

The scarcity of the Saint King Realm among the younger generation is a very obvious result.

"Shen Clan."

Perhaps fed up with this tedium, a powerful figure spoke up:

Why keep boosting the morale of others while diminishing our own prestige?

Many eyes turned to Shen Tianxun, who glanced at the scene and then smiled:

"Although I look down on the Withering and Flourishing Sect, Gu Chen of this Withering and Flourishing Sect is indeed quite capable."

He paused, then continued:

"We should still give these younger generations a chance to prove themselves."

The person asking the question shook their head after hearing this, but didn't say anything more.

In fact.

At this moment, most of the people present were very clear about this.

Despite his seemingly effortless victories in the previous thirty-odd matches, which suggested he possessed formidable strength, Gu Chen's performance was questionable.

But it's only because of the advantage in terms of realm.

The Shen Clan still has even stronger descendants who haven't appeared yet. Once that happens, without the advantage in cultivation level, they will inevitably gradually lose their disadvantage.

The final result is self-evident.

Not to mention, Shen Wentian of the Shen Clan is not just someone who has just entered the Saint King Realm!

Gu Chen of the Withering and Flourishing Sect has no chance of winning today.

Not only is victory impossible, but they'll likely be unable to make any waves in the near future.

This idea was the consensus of almost everyone present.

Shen Tianxun Jingjing observed the expressions and reactions of everyone on the field, taking a general view of the situation.

"Don't worry, Gu Chen will definitely be able to hold on until the last match."

He was well aware of what everyone was thinking.

But he won't let Gu Chen lose.

Everyone now assumes that Gu Chen is relying on his superior cultivation level, but once that advantage disappears, he will likely show signs of weakness.

But as long as Gu Chen is on this battlefield, he can secretly support Gu Chen and ensure that he perseveres.

Under such circumstances, the opinions of everyone present would inevitably change, and they would begin to acknowledge Gu Chen's strength.

The more people acknowledge Gu Chen's strength, the better he will become as a stepping stone for their own Tian'er once he is defeated.

"Now, it's time to give some positive feedback to adjust everyone's expectations."

Shen Tianxun thought to himself softly.

On the field, the person with the highest status and position was undoubtedly Liu Duanyuan.

Shen Tianxun spoke up and asked Liu Duanyuan:

"May I ask, Senior Liu, how did Gu Chen of the Withering and Flourishing Sect perform?"

This question was posed.

Many of the people present, who had been drowsy, perked up and turned their attention in this direction.

Although they didn't know why Shen Tianxun asked that question, they were also curious about how Liu Duanyuan would view it.

Liu Duanyuan glanced at Shen Tianxun, then at Gu Chen on the field.

After a moment, he commented:

"He still has at least 70% of his skills hidden. His Battle Intent and abilities must have been personally honed by a highly skilled martial arts master."

Upon hearing this statement...

An uproar erupted all around.

"Judging from this, Senior Liu's evaluation of this junior from the Withering and Flourishing Sect is truly quite high!"

"No, you're still holding back 70%? Does that mean you're only using 30% of your abilities to deal with this Peak Saint Realm Shen Clan junior?!"

"A martial arts veteran, wow, for Senior Liu to use such a term to describe him, then Gu Chen of the Withering and Flourishing Sect must have a truly extraordinary background!"

All parties were somewhat taken aback by this.

Many people even find it somewhat unbelievable.

As a witness, shouldn't one's evaluation be objective and fair? But now it sounds like this evaluation is full of praise.

Some people also realized that Gu Chen might really be as Liu Duanyuan said, and they were secretly astonished, understanding dawning on them:

"In that case, it's no wonder that the Withering and Flourishing Sect has the confidence to propose such a wager. Perhaps, the outcome of today's wager is still uncertain!"

On the other side.

Shen Tianxun, who was the instigator, also reacted rather poorly.

However, given that he was wearing a fake face, he did not show it.

His already furrowed brows became even more furrowed.

His original intention was simply to use Liu Duanyuan's prestige to give Gu Chen some positive affirmation and raise everyone's expectations.

As a result, this evaluation of Gu Chen was perhaps a bit too high.

So much so that he almost regretted asking that question.

"Forget it, I believe his evaluation of Tian'er will only be higher than this."

Shaking aside his slightly unbalanced thoughts, Shen Tianxun continued watching the field.

"Although there's a slight discrepancy here, it doesn't prevent you from becoming a stepping stone."

On the other side.

After hearing Liu Duanyuan's evaluation, Mu Fan's face showed a hint of amusement.

Then, he turned to Qin Li beside him and said:

"As Senior Brother Gu's sparring partner, I wonder what Senior Qin thinks at this moment?"

Xiao Ye chuckled upon hearing Mu Fan's words.

He also knew that on Hidden Origin Peak, it was always the eldest senior brother and the fourth senior sister who sparred.

But for the second senior brother to use such a senior title to ask questions of such a young woman as the fourth senior sister is really...

"This Liu Duanyuan's judgment is as sharp as ever."

Qin Li thought to herself, then turned and glanced at Mu Fan, who had a slightly playful expression, and said:

"Little brat, go play somewhere else."
