Chapter 77: Damn that ice intent, he did it on purpose!

"Shen Youning!"

The Red-Clothed Woman's body stiffened at this moment, and she looked toward Chen Yan:

"It really was an ambush; you dare to kill me?!"

Boom!

Chen Yan threw a punch, the woman hurriedly dodged, and the hurricane from the fist blasted out, grazing the edge of her mask.

Boom—!

The ground for dozens of meters around was struck by this hurricane and shattered instantly.

"You really want to kill me!"

The woman's mask shattered, revealing an extremely beautiful face, her expression now looking incredibly ugly as she looked at that heroic and stunning woman:

"Shen Youning!!!"

Shen Youning's expression was calm:

"Is it that only you are allowed to kill others, but others are not allowed to kill you?

There is no such logic in this world."

Gong Xinling's pupils shrank, and she spat lowly: "Tch!"

The next instant.

Boom!

She fled toward the distance.

The next moment, she suddenly felt a large hand grab her shoulder; it was that Chen Yan.

"I am a member of the Gong Family!!!"

Gong Xinling roared, but the next moment she turned around, hugged Chen Yan, and sank her silver teeth into Chen Yan's shoulder.

Following that, the two rolled down from the hillside, and countless dust flew and splashed about.

Back at the spot, Shen Youning frowned slightly: "Xu Di."

"I'm going!" Xu Di pulled out the knife stuck in the Monkey Mask's shoulder.

"Ah!!!" the Monkey Mask screamed.

"I didn't tell you to go over there," Shen Youning said in a low voice:

"You going won't help him."

Xu Di frowned, then inserted the Long Blade into the Monkey Mask's wound again.

"Ah!!!" the Monkey Mask screamed again.

"You guard him; since you have violated Military Law, then atone for your crimes properly." Shen Youning spoke, her figure flashed, appearing before the hillside, and she leaped down, flying close to the ground like a blue bird.

Xu Di was silent; he watched the departing Shen Youning with a calm gaze.

Had he really become unable to help anymore?

Beside him, that Monkey Mask was howling incessantly.

"Who told you all to make a move on Chen Yan?" Xu Di asked in a low voice.

"You motherf... you son of a bitch, I..." the Monkey Mask roared, his body in extreme pain.

Swish!

Xu Di pulled out the Long Blade, and the next instant inserted it again.

"Speak!" Xu Di narrowed his eyes, becoming terrifyingly fearsome in the eyes of the Monkey Mask.

"I won't speak!" the Monkey Mask laughed wildly: "This is my Professional Ethics."

Swish! Crack!

Xu Di pulled it out again, and inserted it again.

"Ah!!!"

"I already said, it's Professional Ethics!!!"

The Monkey Mask roared, blood flowing continuously from his mouth.

Xu Di frowned: "I know many more torture methods."

The Monkey Mask sneered repeatedly: "I want to try them, give them all to me one by one!!!"

Xu Di was silent; there are always such people in the world, whose persistence in certain aspects is incomprehensible.

Just like Chen Yan.

Time passed slowly, and the recently departed Shen Youning returned once more.

"Where is Chen Yan?" Xu Di asked: "It ended so quickly?"

Shen Youning's clear eyes flickered, but she did not speak again.

She had not intervened.

Until this moment.

A Youth covered in blood walked up from below the hillside, dragging a woman by her foot.

Blood was fierce on his body, and many wounds appeared ferocious.

As for the Woman being dragged on the ground by him, she was even more miserable; her upper garment was shattered, blood gushed from one wound after another, and her long hair dragged on the ground, sticky with blood and mud.

Slap!

Chen Yan flicked his hand, and Gong Xinling's body landed in front of the Monkey Mask.

The Monkey Mask opened his mouth wide to look; one of Gong Xinling's eyes had been beaten until it burst, and that exquisite face now looked extremely miserable, her red lips constantly twitching.

"Chen... Yan, Shen You... ning, you... dare..."

Silence.

The Monkey Mask could not even speak at this moment.

This was Gong Xinling of the Gong Family, a Gold Rank Member of the Tianbei Fist Tournament, a genius ranked sixteenth on the Heavenly Pride list!

Why had she been dealt with in such a short time?

He looked in a daze at the Youth named Chen Yan; blood dripped from the tips of his hair and slid down the other's face, that pair of ebony-like ink-colored pupils forever carrying a calmness that did not belong to this place.

It was as if he were looking at him with pity.

"Can you tell me who sent you to kill me?" Chen Yan looked at the Monkey Mask.

"Haha, I have a profession..." the Monkey Mask said, laughing, his body trembling.

He had been defeated, but he still possessed a certain spirit that commanded admiration.

Is one not born between Heaven and Earth to live for certain things?

It is very difficult.

It is also very exhilarating, is it not?

It was also at this moment that the Youth raised his leg.

Crack!

Gong Xinling's neck was snapped by force, and the Monkey Mask's laughter came to an abrupt halt.

"Then I won't trouble you anymore."

Chen Yan said quietly, a trace of ferocious killing intent hidden in the depths of his eyes, which vanished the next moment; he had already prepared to kill the Monkey Mask instantly in the time it took to raise his leg.

"No!!!"

The Monkey Mask roared, cold sweat streaming down, and he found it Difficult to Breathe.

He was certain that if he were even one second slower, the other would kill him.

It seemed that for this Youth named Chen Yan, finding the culprit was not important; killing him was the most important thing.

To the side, Xu Di's facial skin twitched; he took a deep breath, having thought of what to say to Chen Yan, but suddenly he could not speak.

Shen Youning glanced at the Corpse of Gong Xinling on the ground; the other was the second greatest beauty of the Gong Family, aside from Gong Fanling.

If the world knew that Gong Xinling had died like this, it would likely...

She swept her peripheral vision toward Chen Yan; Uncle had said that the other was actually a very simple Youth from the Country.

Yet she only saw someone... very calm, or perhaps very pitiful.

Soon.

The interrogation ended.

"Many thanks to you both."

Chen Yan bowed slightly to Shen Youning and Xu Di.

"What are you doing?" Xu Di Frowned: "I merely broke Military Regulation and came here to atone for my sins."

"You..." Shen Youning stopped mid-sentence: "Do you want to change your clothes? There is a Lake over there; I will call Siwen Jie to pick you up."

"Good." Chen Yan said with Laughter.

Looking at the corpses of the Monkey Mask and Gong Xinling on the ground, Xu Di looked at Chen Yan again.

The other was smiling, yet the other's face was covered in blood.

"Last time, thank you." Xu Di said.

"It's nothing."

Xu Di nodded and took a Lunchbox from the backpack behind him:

"My sister made it, she told me to give it to you."

"Good." Chen Yan lifted the lid; inside was a fragrant portion of Braised Pork Rice, with two sliced eggs and a sausage underneath forming a small face.

It was a very exquisite meal.

Only, in this kind of scene, it was very awkward.

………………

"I didn't expect that even after Vice Chief Shen gave a warning, there would still be people making a move on you."

In the car, Siwen frowned:

"Did you find out anything else?"

"No." Chen Yan shook his head:

"Someone just found them through the Tianbei Fist Tournament and paid a high price for them to cripple my constitution and inject me with this."

Chen Yan took out a syringe filled with red Medicinal Liquid.

"It's the same one from last time, a Potion that can make people forget recent memories," Siwen said in a low voice:

"We checked, your family background is very normal."

Chen Yan lowered his brows; it seemed that reaching Gold Rank Member was important.

The other party was just recruiting killers from the Tianbei Fist Tournament to deal with him.

If he could become a very famous Gold Rank Member, or even a Platinum Rank Member, through Bing Yi...

Would he be able to find the culprit?

"Where are you going?" Siwen asked.

"I still have three thousand Martial Merit Points." Chen Yan said.

"I know you are a rich man," Siwen said gloomily.

"Go to the Military Region; I want to perform Observation and Imagination on an Earth Vein Grade Qi-Blood Martial Technique," Chen Yan said.

His 【Hundred Spears Dark Thrust】 had already entered the realm of wonder, but it was still some distance from reaching the subtle.

He had to strengthen his attainments in the path of Qi-Blood as soon as possible.

In this way, relying solely on Qi-Blood strength, one can also reach Gold Rank.

And...

【Breaking Saint Tree Level Four: 5/10

Force: 99/100

Blood: 80/100

Technique: 6/100

Body: 60/100

Array: 90/100】

The 【Force】 Strength Character Po Sheng Fruit is about to ripen.

Consuming this one is equivalent to seventy of the previous ones.

Currently, Chen Yan's Force Pattern has already reached fourteen.

In the Seventy-Two Patterns Extreme Forging Realm, each of the Tendon, Bone, Skin, and Force can have a maximum of Eighteen.

Surpassing Eighteen Patterns counts as breaking the limit of the Extreme Forging Realm.

Seventy 【Force】 Strength Character Po Sheng Fruits; will this cause Chen Yan to break his limit all at once?

And...

The 【Zhen】 Character Po Sheng Fruit has also reached ninety percent progress.

Chen Yan had asked Si Wenyi in advance; his Array Master, Wen Xin, has been at the Tianbei Fist Tournament these past few days.

Currently, they are on a winning streak in the Silver Rank.

It is time to go and seek guidance.

…………

"Earth Vein Grade C Qi-Blood Martial Technique, Ming Shi!"

Inside a Blood-Sniffing Room at the Military Region, Chen Yan looked at the Origin Crystal in his hand, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

It is a pity that one can only perform Observation and Imagination for five hours.

Earth Vein Grade C, six hundred Martial Merit Points per hour.

This time, it has all been spent.

Chen Yan's gaze locked onto this Origin Crystal radiating a deep, profound light.

Within his pupils, a point of extreme light suddenly flickered; this ray of light pierced through everything, penetrating Chen Yan's retina and brain nerves, passing through in an instant.

Chen Yan's body jerked backward, but the next moment, he looked again.

This is a spear technique!

Chen Yan specifically chose a spear technique; after studying 【Hundred Spears Dark Thrust】, even without Awakening Spear Momentum, Chen Yan had some understanding of spear techniques.

He needs to become strong rapidly, so he cannot learn anything else.

It was just that in that moment of Observation and Imagination, he felt nothing at all.

Continue!

Chen Yan's pupils were bloodshot as he stared fixedly at this Origin Crystal.

Within the Po Saint Realm, the red light representing Qi-Blood Energy and the golden light representing Artistic Energy intertwined and surged.

Six and a half hours later.

Tianbei Fist Tournament.

The familiar cheers, the familiar Star Dome, the familiar Arena.

The familiar Master, Wen Xin.

Chen Yan sat in the Combatant Area, looking at the figure on the Arena, a curve involuntarily appearing at the corner of his mouth beneath the Mask.

"Ice Master."

A voice rang out, and a man wearing a pitch-black Mask walked toward Chen Yan not far away:

"Go down and fight a match; you are good at using spear techniques, and I am too, let's spar."

The man laughed, and the other Silver Rank Members in the Combatant Area looked at the pitch-black Mask, all whispering to each other.

"Let's get to know each other, I am called Mo Qiang." The pitch-black Mask laughed:

"Seventh in Silver Rank."

Chen Yan looked at the other party: "Fine, I will fight you."

"Then let's go down now."

"No, I must fight Wen Xin first."

Mo Qiang said in Silence:

"Then I will go fight Wen Xin first; after she loses, I will come to fight you."

"No, I will fight Wen Xin first," Chen Yan said quietly.

No one could interrupt his intention to learn Arrays!

Mo Qiang was silent for a moment, then sat down; he hesitated to speak, then said strangely:

"Brother, do you think that because you managed to reach the eighteenth, you can waste my time?"

Chen Yan Frowned, but the White Skirt Woman not far away hurried over, saying with a Smile:

"Mr. Mo Qiang, you are seventh place, and Mr. Ice Master is eighteenth; logically speaking, only he can challenge you, you cannot challenge him."

Mo Qiang did not speak, then suddenly laughed: "It's fine, just a joke."

"The Silver Rank twentieth consecutive win from Wen Xin has arrived!"

On the Arena, the Host's exaggerated and fatigued shout rang out.

"Heavens, someone stop her!"

On the Arena, a Smile appeared at the corners of Chen Yu's mouth beneath her Mask.

"Master, perhaps I can reach the top ten of the Silver Rank in one night."

In the Consciousness World, the Red Skirt Woman nodded slightly:

"My mental power just left my body; someone is indeed looking for Gold Rank Members in the Tianbei Fist Tournament to strike at your Brother."

Chen Yu bit down on her Silver Tooth.

"It's fine, your Brother is in the Military Martial Guard, he will be well protected." The Red Skirt Woman said, looking slightly conflicted:

"Cherish your time, become strong quickly; once I recover a sliver of mental power, I will strike at Luo Chen.

Let them see that even bugs dare to provoke my Disciple."

Chen Yu nodded and took a deep breath:

"I will!"

Sharp Light appeared in her eyes, and then she heard the Host call out the two words 'Bing Yi', and her body stiffened.

That man wearing Black Clothes appeared before Chen Yu once again.

The Audience at the scene suddenly erupted into a wave of cheers like a giant tide.

Wen Xin versus Bing Yi.

It was happening again.

This was almost the thing everyone wanted to see most after seeing Wen Xin's winning streak.

He had finally come!

Wen Xin fighting Bing Yi had almost become the most watched match of the Tianbei Fist Tournament these past few days.

Chen Yu took a deep breath, and streaks of Golden Light talisman radiance rose up.

"Defeat him in an instant, do not give him any chance to resist!"

The Red Robe Woman spoke, and she also began to grow nervous.

How ridiculous!

She had such a Disciple, and she trained her Disciple like this every single day.

Yet, when her Disciple faced a Heavenly Pride from a Small City, she actually began to feel nervous.

Damn Bing Yi.

"Okay!"

Boom!

Brilliant Golden Light erupted, Chen Yu's body arched downward, and the dragon-like talisman radiance condensed at this moment!

Condensing, and condensing further!

An invincible aura rose up abruptly, and waves of air were stirred up on the Arena.

The surroundings were silent as a Raven or Sparrow.

Everyone was incomparably shocked.

Wen Xin was going for a one-hit kill.

Then!

Boom!

Arriving in an instant, Chen Yu's Fist, coiled with talisman radiance, slammed toward Chen Yan's face.

The next moment.

Bang!

A Long Spear suddenly appeared, whipping against Chen Yu's Belly.

Boom—!

Cold Light flashed, and Chen Yu was knocked back.

The Red Skirt Woman's lips parted, her brows tightly furrowed.

Her Disciple's sure-win offensive in an instant, just like that...

Was broken?

Subsequently, amidst the stunned Gaze of everyone, a tug-of-war began.

The Red Skirt Woman's expression became increasingly ugly.

Until an hour and a half later, the exhausted Wen Xin walked off the Arena, head lowered, her thoughts unknown.

"Damn Bing Yi, if I recover my strength, I must suppress him for a hundred years!!!"

The Red Skirt Woman was in a Rage; how could she not see it?

That Bing Yi was simply toying with her Disciple.

This match could have ended in ten minutes.

The other party insisted on dragging it out to an hour and a half.

It was like this every time, truly asking for a beating!

The Red Skirt Woman had not been this enraged in a long time.

Chen Yu slowly shook her head:

"In the end, it is I..."

She looked toward the Arena, where Bing Yi was actually waving at her, very friendly.

"Too... weak..."

Chen Yu gritted her teeth.

At the same time.

Chen Yan was more than just grateful to Wen Xin; he wanted to send the other party some gifts directly.

Within the Po Sheng Realm.

【Breaking Saint Tree Level Four: 5/10

Strength: 104/100

Blood: 83/100

Technique: 21/100

Body: 61/100

Array: 127/100】

One battle, two Fruit matured!

Chen Yan was extremely excited in his heart.

Once this bite is taken, what level will his strength reach?

Grateful!

He waved at Wen Xin again, but the other party ignored him.

At the same time.

Inside the Combatant Area, the seventh-ranked Mo Qiang Stood Up: "Bing Yi, are you still going to fight?"

"Fight!" Chen Yan said.

"I thought you weren't going to fight anymore."

Boom!

A streak of black light erupted from the Combatant Area and landed on the Arena the next instant.

"Just watching your battle with Wen Xin almost put me to sleep." Mo Qiang gave a faint Smile:

"To be honest, I don't even want to fight you anymore."

Chen Yan did not speak.

In the Combatant Area, however, a wave of cheers erupted.

Silver Rank seventh-ranked Mo Qiang versus eighteenth-ranked Bing Yi.

This was a rare top-tier Silver Rank battle.

The Host also revealed a Smile at this moment; the match had become interesting.

Thus, they began to explain the match rules very quickly.

At the same time.

Chen Yu, who was just preparing to leave, turned around and looked toward the Arena.

Her winning streaks had been broken by Bing Yi several times, so naturally, she felt a bit of resentment and wanted to see just what kind of strength this opponent could display.

In the Consciousness World, the Red Skirt Woman was also watching intently; seeing that figure in Black Clothes made her angry.

The match began.

"You go first, Bing Yi!" Mo Qiang laughed.

"Alright!"

Boom!

A Cold Light suddenly flashed, and the light across the entire Arena seemed to be drained away.

The world dimmed, leaving only a single line of light!

Chen Yu's Pupil suddenly constricted, her vision occupied entirely by this line of Cold Light spanning the Arena.

It was as if it were the center of the world.

The next instant.

Mo Qiang's body was suddenly sent into Flight, crashing straight into an invisible glass barrier a hundred meters Beyond the Arena before slowly sliding down.

The entire Observation Area went quiet.

"Bing Yi..." the Host's voice trembled:

"Bing Yi wins!"

Chen Yu stood frozen in place.

So strong!

If this Spear were aimed at her...

In the Consciousness World, after a moment of Stun, the Red Skirt Woman's expression turned extremely ugly.

"Damn Bing Yi, he did that on purpose!"
