Chapter 63: Genius Showdown

  Everyone held their breath and stared intently, perhaps there would be a fierce battle between dragons.

  "Hehe, are you the master of this place?"

  Since they had already torn their faces apart, Li Chen didn't want to give them a good face either, and immediately wanted to leave.

  Qiu Qianyi's face sank slightly, and with his status, being made to lose face in front of so many people, how could he not be angry.

  "A minor official, suddenly achieving success, truly doesn't know the height of heaven and the thickness of earth!"

  Yang Hao Tian let out a cold laugh and shook his head as he walked into the courtyard.

  Buzz!

  The crowd of inner disciples was in an uproar, and it was clear that this was meant to make things difficult for Li Chen.

  It's worth noting that Li Chen was in the limelight on Nan Yunfeng, and he had a draw with Zhang Chulang. Immediately after that, Yang Haotian broke through to become an elite disciple.

  The two are only one year apart, and genius is used for comparison. At this time, it was undoubtedly the first confrontation between the two great geniuses.

  "Little brat!"

  It's been said that much, if Lei Chen doesn't counterattack now, it would be too unmanly. After all, he is still a young man, so he immediately didn't leave any room for courtesy.

  Wow!

  The crowd was in an uproar, but more than half of them had just burst out laughing and then covered their mouths.

  Although Yang Huan Tian is a genius, his behavior has always been questionable, especially with the rumors from the East Wing, where he had many improper thoughts about female disciples at a young age.

  Moreover, he has always been arrogant and dissatisfied with the inner door disciples, but because of his qualifications and strength, they did not dare to say more.

  Now that there is a talented person of similar age and strength who can rival him, the crowd naturally enjoys watching the excitement.

  "What did you say?"

  As expected, Yang Huan turned around with a gloomy face and stared coldly at Li Chen.

  Practicing martial arts up until now has always been smooth sailing, whether it's talent or comprehension, both are higher than peers of the same age, where did such a title come from?

  Especially by a servant who had never been taken seriously, and had never even noticed him before, someone as proud as he was felt extremely insulted.

  "You're still young, but your ears are already so bad!"

  Li Chen shrugged his shoulders, if it were in the past, the other party was indeed an existence he needed to look up to, but now it's not.

  It can be said that as his cultivation grew, Li Chen's temperament gradually underwent a transformation, a metamorphosis that any young man with a strong will like him would inevitably go through.

  If he is intimidated by these things, then the goals he has set for himself will never be achieved in his lifetime.

  Li Mingyun inexplicably accepted him as a disciple, although he didn't know what his purpose was. However, since childhood, Li Chen had lived in poverty and always felt a sense of crisis lingering in his mind, no matter where or when.

  So, before he becomes powerful enough to protect himself, he needs a backing, and this Mystic Cloud Sect is his backing.

  Nan Yunfeng's two great giants, that was his first step in standing tall in the Xuan Yun Sect, not because he didn't want to enter the peak, but because he couldn't refuse in front of the two great giants.

  Time and time again, seemingly brazen behavior is actually a disguise for the mismatched age, that heart which has seen through the world's superficiality, experienced the coldness and warmth of human relationships, and endured hardships and tribulations, makes decisions after deep contemplation.

  "It seems you really think of yourself as a treasure!"

  Yang Haotian, who grew up in the flattery of his fellow disciples and even seniors, was extremely intelligent, but he didn't know how many thoughts had already turned over beneath the seemingly frivolous surface of the youth before him, who was about the same age as him.

  A cold glance, and killing intent has already stirred!

  As a member of the Xuan Yun Sect, killing someone would be nothing more than a minor punishment, even if the person had exceptional talent.

  Whoa!

  Yang Huan Tian stepped out, and the disciples immediately cleared a space. Although a cultivator in the Refining Realm wasn't considered an absolute top expert, if two of them were to clash, their aura would inevitably harm the others nearby.

  Li Chen's mouth twitched slightly as he slowly reached into his pocket and pulled out a pair of tattered gloves.

  Today is the day to show off this sect's genius and establish dominance; even if it's high-profile, what's wrong with that?

  "Li Shidi, come in and have a cup of wine!"

  Chu Zi Yun, surrounded by many people, sensed the commotion outside the courtyard and stood up with a slightly furrowed brow, greeting Li Chen.

  Although she also dislikes being surrounded by people, today are all people who come to congratulate, if they really fight in front of the door, her face will not look good for a moment.

  Several elite disciples who had also heard of Li Chen, but had never seen him before, turned their heads to take a look at this person who had made a big splash in the sect.

  "Haha, Chu Shizhi, it's rare for everyone to gather together today. Why don't we let the two junior brothers have a friendly competition? Firstly, it will add to the excitement, and secondly, it will encourage all of you junior brothers and sisters to study hard and make progress. What do you think?"

  Qiu Qianyi was anxious for the two of them to fight to the death, and looked around in all directions.

  "Good!"

  The crowd heard this and immediately applauded, fearing that the world would not be chaotic.

  "Sister, just take a look!"

  Lu Wushuang stopped Chu Ziying who was about to speak, her beautiful eyes scanned the two with interest.

  "I've heard you're still in the Inner Breath Realm and can't even reach the True Boundary of Martial Arts, but I won't take advantage of you. Let's have a three-move match!"

  Yang Huan held a sword in one hand and stood calmly in the arena, with an air of a master.

  Although he was only in his teens, his spirit was quite full, attracting many female disciples to glance at him frequently, with a continuous display of brilliance.

  There were also many male disciples who secretly compared themselves to him, although they were very resentful in their hearts, but had to admit that they were inferior to Yang Haotian by more than one level.

  Zhang Chulang's face was not gloomy, and Yang Huan's words were clearly sarcastic, implying that he couldn't beat an inner breath martial artist. Thinking of Li Chen's encounter with them yesterday, a cold smile involuntarily appeared at the corner of his mouth.

  Compared to Li Chen, who was wearing a blue robe and had long hair draped over his shoulders, especially the dark red birthmark that appeared under his disheveled hair, Yang Huan was not only half a head taller, but also far more handsome in terms of appearance.

  "I'm not a novice, I've just broken through to the Refining Truth Realm. I haven't fallen to the point where I'd bully a little kid!"

  Determined to take down Yang Hua Tian, Li Chen also wanted to win a game fair and square, to declare his own liberation from the shackles of slavery, and proudly throw off the humiliation.

  As soon as he said this, all the disciples were in an uproar again. The disciples from the other three peaks secretly cursed him without end.

  Nan Yun Peak is indeed a blessed land, having produced three elite disciples in a row. To think that the entire Xuan Yun Sect's four peaks have only produced six people in the past three years.

  Everyone present in the field has arrived, and Nan Yunfeng occupies half of them.

  "You're courting death!"

  Yang Hao's face turned dark, his masculine image vanished in an instant as he transformed into a little kid. With a whoosh, he drew out the treasured sword at his waist and darted towards Li Chen.

  As one of the geniuses who had been hidden in the sect for many years, Yang Huan Tian could be said to have received the best training on Dong Yun Peak.

  In his hand was a mid-grade Xuanjin Spirit Sword, which perfectly matched his true energy attribute. His own cultivation method, the high-level "Xuanjin Secret", had even reached threefold when he broke through to the Refining True Realm.

  In coordination with the already powerful attacking strength of the Golden Attribute True Energy, the Golden Light Sword Technique is even more skillfully executed.

  Everyone only felt a flash of golden light in front of their eyes, and when they looked around, Yang Huan's entire body was like a ball of golden light, covering Li Chen.
