Chapter 333: You Are So Impressive, I Really Want to Laugh
The Military Martial Guard side.
Everyone who saw this scene felt angry at their lack of resolve.
Shang Yunwu said in a low voice:
"Zhou Tian, is this what you wanted to obtain?!"
Zhou Tian did not reply; he had already had his bones broken by a kick from the crew-cut youth.
"Bad luck!" Shao Hengyang cursed in a low voice.
This scene was seen by everyone.
But what everyone cared about most was still the Dao-Severing Sacred Fruit; this scene was merely a small interlude.
As for Chen Yan, he kept his eyes closed the entire time.
"Chen Yan!!!" Jiang Yuan's voice, filled with a smile, rang out:
"You really don't intend to take those 1.5 billion points anymore, huh."
Jiang Yuan had a smiling face, but inside he was cursing incessantly.
Chen Yan, what exactly are you trying to do?
He was indeed feeling a bit panicked.
Because if things continued this way, even if he and Chen Yan wanted to intervene, there would be no opportunity left.
Right before their eyes.
The degree to which the Dao-Severing Sacred Bamboo was being bent grew greater and greater.
Fifty degrees!
Fifty-one degrees!
"Jiang Yuan, if you don't make a move now, there won't be another chance!" Bai Danshan roared in a low voice.
Many of the heaven-gifted geniuses in the Aristocratic Family Alliance could no longer sit still.
Jiang Yuan gave a faint smile:
"Wait a little longer!"
Fifty-three degrees.
The degree to which the Dao-Severing Sacred Bamboo was being bent became even greater.
Jiang Yuan's eyes flickered, his gaze shifting constantly between the Dao-Severing Sacred Fruit and Chen Yan.
Although he was smiling, he was roaring wildly inside.
"Jiang Yuan!" Bai Danshan bellowed.
Jiang Yuan gritted his teeth, and at this moment, he roared out:
"Shut the fuck up!"
Bai Danshan instantly fell silent; this was the first time Jiang Yuan had ever been angry.
Jiang Yuan stood up and looked in the direction of Chen Yan.
Chen Yan kept his eyes closed the entire time, as if he truly did not care about who the Dao-Severing Sacred Fruit belonged to.
Jiang Yuan narrowed his eyes, watching intently.
Finally, at a certain moment.
"Chen Yan, you're impressive!!!"
He laughed out loud, waved one hand, and a pitch-black longbow appeared in his grip, instantly drawing the bowstring.
Roar!
Suddenly, the sounds of dragons chanting and tigers howling resonated from the longbow.
A streak of white light formed an arrow.
The next instant.
Bang!
The white light of the arrow exploded outward, emitting a blinding radiance that pierced through a hundred miles of the void, instantly striking toward the direction of the Aristocratic Family Alliance.
Qiu Changji's eyes were cold and indifferent as he grabbed it with one hand.
Boom!
The moment the long arrow made contact with his right hand, surging flames erupted.
All around, thousands of Martial Suppression Division examinees were caught in the wake of the flames and hurriedly dodged, letting go of the red ropes in their hands.
"Aristocratic Family Alliance, pull!"
Jiang Yuan shouted in a low voice.
Thousands of examinees from the Aristocratic Family Alliance instantly erupted with combat power, pulling the red ropes in their hands taut.
In an instant, the Dao-Severing Sacred Bamboo, which had been bending toward the Martial Suppression Division side, shifted more than ten degrees toward the Aristocratic Family Alliance side.
Qiu Changji's eyes were indifferent:
"Jiang Yuan, is this your plan?"
He did not care and exerted force again, pulling on the red rope.
Suddenly, both the Aristocratic Family Alliance and the Martial Suppression Division began to struggle against each other.
The Dao-Severing Chains on both sides were pulled taut to the point of being perfectly straight, constantly resonating and shattering the space.
On the Military Martial Guard side, Shang Yunwu gave a faint smile.
In the battle of patience between Chen Yan and Jiang Yuan, Jiang Yuan ultimately did not manage to remain patient to the end.
This was the first step of the plan Chen Yan had told him.
It had now been realized.
Let the Martial Suppression Division and the Aristocratic Family Alliance contend first, exhausting the Qi-blood and force of both sides.
With the realization of this step, the Military Martial Guards would then have the qualifications to participate.
As for the second step.
"Keep waiting!" Shang Yunwu looked at the examinees behind him.
Everyone's expression tightened; at this moment, they understood Chen Yan's plan.
They couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
This was an open conspiracy.
Chen Yan, truly formidable!
Time passed slowly.
One minute, two minutes...
It wasn't until three minutes later.
Even though the Aristocratic Family Alliance kept obstructing, the Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit was still continuously leaning toward the Martial Suppression Division's side.
Jiang Yuan narrowed his eyes and drew his bow to shoot an arrow again.
Boom!
This arrow shot directly onto the ground where the Martial Suppression Division was located; in an instant, firelight mixed with shattered earth splashed everywhere, deafening to the ear.
Many Martial Suppression Division examinees were affected and lost their strength for a moment.
The Dao-Slaying Sacred Bamboo, which had been leaning toward the Martial Suppression Division, sprang back by several degrees.
"Jiang Yuan, you're playing dirty!"
"Jiang Yuan, f*** you!"
"Seeking death!"
The Martial Suppression Division side was instantly enraged.
Jiang Yuan, however, smiled indifferently, though his eyes were fixed on Chen Yan.
He cursed incessantly in his heart.
He should have waited a little longer.
The current situation was clearly what Chen Yan wanted to see.
Time passed slowly.
The Dao-Slaying Sacred Bamboo leaned more and more toward the Martial Suppression Division's side.
Until at one moment, the massive Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit appeared directly in the high sky twenty kilometers above the Martial Suppression Division's side.
At this moment, a trace of golden light emerged upon the Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit.
This was the change that only occurred after the Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit reached outside the lake.
"Chen Yan, are you still not going to make a move!?" Jiang Yuan roared lowly.
And it was at this very moment.
Boom!
Like a great sun rising into the sky, from the direction of the Martial Suppression Division, Qiu Changji suddenly erupted; he actually abandoned using the Dao-Severing Lock to pull the Dao-Severing Sacred Bamboo, intending to strike directly to shatter the Dao-Severing Sacred Fruit.
After the Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit exploded, it would turn into countless light orbs; he only wanted the largest one.
And at this moment, the Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit was directly above the Martial Suppression Division's side, so the light orbs would only fall toward the Martial Suppression Division's side.
All the Martial Suppression Division examinees were incredibly excited; they were about to obtain a massive opportunity.
Jiang Yuan's pupils constricted, and he shot an arrow directly toward Qiu Changji.
Qiu Changji's body was like golden lightning, dodging these arrows one after another.
But one still exploded the moment Qiu Changji dodged, affecting him.
"Chen Yan!" Jiang Yuan shouted in a low voice.
And it was at this very instant.
Chen Yan opened his eyes and spoke:
"Pull!"
His voice fell.
Thousands of Military Martial Guard examinees exerted force simultaneously, and streams of force surged into the red thread, forming an incredibly terrifying power.
It pulled the Dao-Slaying Sacred Bamboo, which had originally leaned toward the Martial Suppression Division, back by more than ten degrees.
Consequently, the Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit, which had already reached the sky above the Martial Suppression Division, was pulled back over the lake.
The golden light that had originally appeared on the Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit vanished instantly, signifying it could no longer be harvested.
Qiu Changji's expression was indifferent; he swept a calm glance at Chen Yan.
He was only a hair's breadth away from being able to touch the Dao-Slaying Sacred Fruit.
But the simultaneous actions of Chen Yan and Jiang Yuan caused him to lose the chance to harvest the sacred fruit.
"You certainly have patience," Qiu Changji said with a faint smile.
He actually admired him a bit in his heart, because every one of Chen Yan's choices was made at the absolute limit.
It was precisely because of this that Jiang Yuan made a mistake, and he himself made a mistake.
Now, both the Aristocratic Family Alliance and the Martial Suppression Division had consumed a great deal of power due to their previous confrontation.
The originally weakest Military Martial Guards had, under Chen Yan's plan, truly gained a sliver of a chance to compete.
At this moment, the examinees on the Military Martial Guards' side were incredibly excited.
Originally, everyone thought there was no chance at all, but because of Chen Yan, there was a chance.
As for Zhou Tian and the other Military Martial examinees who had been suppressed by the Martial Suppression Division and had completely lost their chance, they were now filled with regret.
They also did not expect it to turn out like this.
"If I had known, I would have stayed on the Military Guard side," a girl said, sobbing.
Zhou Tian's expression was uncertain, and he did not speak.
But high above, the look in Qiu Changji's eyes contained pity amidst the indifference:
"Chen Yan, you got one thing wrong; sometimes, handling a matter doesn't need to be that troublesome at all!"
His voice was incomparably indifferent, brilliant white light condensed around his body, and his black hair flared wildly.
The next instant.
Boom!
Circular shockwaves erupted from his body, and his entire person charged toward the Military Guard side like a burning, violent morning star.
Under the gaze of the crowd, Qiu Changji had actually chosen to suppress the entire Military Guard with the strength of one person!
"Seeking death!"
Shang Yunwu let out a low roar and suddenly erupted with blood energy.
Every single military examinee became incomparably violent.
Qiu Changji is coming to suppress thousands of military examinees alone; just how confident are you?
But soon, everyone became vigilant; on one hand, they pulled the red threads in their hands, and on the other, they prepared for battle.
Some third-rank and second-rank military examinees even had fear appear in their eyes, their faces full of a sense of helplessness.
Even though they were angry, they also understood one thing.
At this moment, the one charging toward them was the third on the Heaven's Pride Ranking!
A supreme heaven's pride second only to Zhang Luobai and Yu Changsheng.
The opponent is very arrogant, but the opponent...
Truly has the qualifications to suppress thousands of examinees alone!
Qiu Changji is cheating!
At this moment, even Shang Yunwu was a bit nervous.
In the direction of the Aristocratic Family Alliance, a trace of a smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Yuan's mouth.
The next moment, he stepped into the air and also flew toward the Military Guard.
"This is how it should be!" Jiang Yuan laughed loudly.
He wanted to join forces with Chen Yan to defeat Qiu Changji together.
His speed was actually not weaker than Qiu Changji's at all; he had clearly already used a secret technique.
Qiu Changji's expression was calm, his entire body's strength poured into his legs, his speed became faster, and his aura became even more explosive.
Even if Jiang Yuan wanted to intervene, he was not worried.
He had great confidence in his own strength and was not afraid in the slightest.
It was also at this moment.
On the ground, Chen Yan's eyes were clear as he looked at the military personnel beside him:
"None of you are to intervene."
He stepped out, rose straight into the air, and stood just like that in the high sky above the Military Guard side, looking straight ahead at the Dao-Slaying Sacred Bamboo in the center of the lakeside.
He was waiting.
Suddenly, Shang Yunwu and the others were stunned.
What does this mean?
Chen Yan spoke calmly:
"This is an order."
His voice contained no majesty, and was even very gentle.
But the moment this voice fell, it made everyone unable to muster even a shred of desire to resist.
"Yes!" Shang Yunwu said.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Solemn voices rang out one after another, and all the military examinees stood straight, quietly watching the one wearing the General Star uniform...
The Fushan General Star.
This battle came abruptly, and Chen Yan and Jiang Yuan were forced into a dangerous situation by Qiu Changji alone.
In the distance, the already injured Zhou Tian gave a bitter smile:
"If your strength is weak, you deserve to be beaten..."
He slowly shook his head.
Chen Yan was plotting, and he was also plotting; he had even discarded the military glory.
But weak strength is the most fundamental thing.
Qiu Changji's strike made all the plotting turn into a joke.
Boom!
Two sounds of breaking through the air rang out, almost tearing everyone's eardrums.
Jiang Yuan and Qiu Changji turned into two white lights, tearing through the air, their speed fast to the extreme.
All around, the air pressure was rising.
No one was even paying attention to that massive Dao-Slaying Sacred Bamboo anymore.
Two streaks of white light rushed to the left and right sides of Chen Yan at almost the same time, incomparably brilliant, illuminating the surroundings.
"Attack together!"
Jiang Yuan blasted out a palm and shouted lowly at Chen Yan; this palm seemed to contain the weight of an entire mountain and was Jiang Yuan's fatal blow.
Jiang Yuan without a bow is in his strongest state!
Qiu Changji's fist was already raised, appearing as if he had grasped a scorching great sun; this punch was originally aimed at Chen Yan.
But upon sensing the power contained in Jiang Yuan's palm, Qiu Changji changed his direction of attack, and he let out a loud laugh.
"Jiang Yuan, you really did hide your strength!"
Qiu Changji laughed out loud, incomparably arrogant and incomparably confident.
At this moment, the two of them almost simultaneously forgot about Chen Yan in the very center, wanting to strike in an instant to display their strength.
But it was also at this very instant.
That youth in the very center suddenly spread his arms, reaching toward Jiang Yuan and Qiu Changji.
In a flash, everyone was stunned, and then their pupils shrank sharply.
Faint golden radiance flowed over Chen Yan's hands, as clear as glaze, and the majestic aura contained within instantly overwhelmed Qiu Changji and Jiang Yuan.
Entering-Spirit level 【Heaven Patrol】!
Entering-Spirit level 【Heaven Patrol Extreme Dao】!
Morning Star level self-created martial art 【Void-Breaking - Interstitial Saint Explosion】!
Five-fold combat power amplification, Word Realm, activate!
And...
Seventh-grade Fist Intent!
While cultivating, Chen Yan's Fist Intent successfully reached the seventh grade!
The vast and mighty seventh-grade Fist Intent was suffocating!
With layer upon layer of state enhancements, the golden light on Chen Yan's body whistled, and the gale it swept up was terrifying to the extreme!
Qiu Changji was stunned.
Jiang Yuan, at the very moment he struck, felt his heart almost stop beating; he opened his mouth wide, using all his might to roar out:
"Attack together!!!"
The same words, yet in this brief moment, the meaning had changed.
Following that.
Chen Yan's left fist collided with Jiang Yuan's right palm, and his right fist collided with Qiu Changji's right fist.
Boom—
The deafening explosion made the minds of the ten thousand examinees by the lakeside tremble.
A massive white ball of light appeared above the space where Chen Yan was, continuously expanding to a diameter of several thousand meters.
The military examinees below watched one by one, astonished and stunned.
"Chen...!"
Qiu Changji's voice, astonished to the extreme, resounded from within the ball of light.
The next instant, his body was thrown out from within the ball of light by a massive force.
His eyes were wide open, still carrying a trace of confusion.
But just at the moment of his confusion, a tall, slender figure, like a demon or a fiend, appeared above him.
Qiu Changji was stunned for a moment, then roared wildly and threw a punch.
At the very moment of throwing the punch, Qiu Changji met the sharp gaze of Chen Yan, and the latter also threw a punch.
The two fists collided.
Following that!
Crack!
The sound of bone cracking and the vibration of the physical body resounded simultaneously.
Qiu Changji was instantly slammed into the earth; the terrifying force made the ground tremble violently and the lake water churn.
He was still somewhat astonished, wanting to continue to soar into the air.
But the figure wrapped in golden light had already crashed down, and Chen Yan kicked out.
A vibration, a sonic boom, and a force terrifying to the extreme pierced through and exploded!
Qiu Changji's body instantly shattered the earth, sinking deep into it.
He opened his mouth wide, his brain dizzy, yet an incomparably indifferent voice sounded from above.
"To be honest, seeing you wanting to suppress the entire military academy alone, I was still worried."
That voice was incomparably calm, stating a fact.
"But after sensing the strength of the aura on you, I wanted to laugh."
