Chapter 44

Chi Lian snorted coldly, "A mere formation, could it possibly trouble me, an Elder?"

In the original text, she was indeed not very strong in the later stages, but she had reached the level of Wu Di.

With the insight of a Wu Di, a fifth-grade formation could be broken.

She had to catch up quickly; what exactly were Xu Chen and Bu Fengshuang planning to do?

She had a feeling that something bad might happen!

……

PS: The number of fresh flowers has reached 2,000, adding two extra chapters. If the review votes break 500, another two chapters will be added. Nothing else has changed. Including the three chapters I need to make up from yesterday, there will be twelve chapters today! I'll try my best to write until midnight; as long as I finish, that's good. If I can't finish, I'll make it up tomorrow. I will definitely not slack off!!! Continuing to ask for all kinds of data!!!

The moment Xu Chen and Bu Fengshuang departed, Duan Qianyuan and the others entered.

Instantly, they stepped into and triggered a Third-Rank formation.

Countless spiritual energy swords, like a downpour of rain, descended straight toward them.

Duan Qianyuan: "..."

Damn it!

We just entered the assessment zone and triggered a formation; is this level of bad luck real?

No, this was definitely set up by Bu Fengshuang.

Damn, that little bitch is so vicious; she won't even let them move.

The other academy elites standing with Duan Qianyuan were instantly stunned into silence.

Good heavens! A Third-Rank formation, yet they possess only Third-Rank strength.

Trapped like this, how can they search for the Young Master's token?

Nearby, Chi Lian, Huo Ling'er, and Li Ruoling, who had intended to break the formation, cast sympathetic glances upon seeing this.

It is indeed quite miserable!

But then again, who asked you to be on Ye Xuan's side? Tsk.

Xu Chen and Bu Fengshuang pressed forward, encountering almost no obstacles.

Every beast they met along the way required no effort from Xu Chen; Bu Fengshuang crushed them directly.

One strike per beast, without even pausing her steps.

Of course, these were merely the lowest-grade Second and Third-Rank spirit beasts in the assessment zone.

Truly powerful spirit beasts possess strength nearing the peak of the Fourth Rank.

After a long while, Xu Chen stopped.

He had sensed Jiang Feng's presence.

With Jiang Feng were also his younger brother, Jiang Heng.

And three others from the Blade Dao Academy and the Spear Dao Academy.

All five had simultaneously passed the second trial and entered the assessment zone.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng narrowed his eyes; it was time to find Ye Xuan and Duan Qianyuan.

Duan Qianyuan uses poison; if he cooperates with Ye Xuan, there is a high probability they could cripple Xu Chen.

Xu Chen is so arrogant, bullying Ye Xuan everywhere; Jiang Feng could not stand it anymore.

This time, he, Jiang Feng, would thoroughly suppress him.

To let Xu Chen know that he is not the strongest among the Jixia Academy freshmen.

Jiang Feng said to the other four: "You follow the plan and search for the token first; I will go find Ye Xuan."

Jiang Heng asked curiously: "Brother, why do you go find Ye Xuan?"

Jiang Feng smiled: "Naturally to unite and deal with Xu Chen. Once Xu Chen is defeated, we will then compete with Ye Xuan."

Jiang Heng and the others nodded; Xu Chen was indeed one of their greatest opponents.

Therefore, Jiang Heng said: "Very well, we will search for the token, while you, Brother, go defeat Xu Chen. Let us move now."

Having spoken, they dashed off toward a certain direction.

In an instant, within this vast southeastern area, only Jiang Feng remained.

Jiang Feng curled his lips: "Xu Chen, oh Xu Chen, you would never expect that the three of us would strike simultaneously."

According to the plan, this arrogant scoundrel Xu Chen will at least be crippled."

"Is that so?"

Just then, Xu Chen's faint voice drifted over.

At the same time, Xu Chen's figure appeared before Jiang Feng.

Looking at Jiang Feng, a chilling smile touched his lips: "I heard you wanted to cripple me?"

Jiang Feng's pupils contracted slightly; how could this be?

He had shared this plan with Ye Xuan and Duan Qianyuan; they should also hate Xu Chen.

Bu Fengshuang's face showed coldness: "Xu Chen, is he someone you can touch?"

"Run!"

Terrified beyond measure, Jiang Feng activated his movement technique the next second, attempting to flee.

Unexpectedly, before long, he struck a wall that blocked his path.

A wall?

Jiang Feng squinted and realized this was no ordinary wall.

It was clearly a golden formation barrier, shaped like a hemisphere, enclosing him within.

No matter how frantically he struck the barrier, it only rippled like water, showing not a single crack.

"A Fifth-Rank defensive formation!"

Finally, Jiang Feng tested the formation's strength and his face turned despairing.

Bu Fengshuang said indifferently: "You do have some knowledge."

Jiang Feng trembled: "W-what do you want to do?"

A terrible feeling vaguely arose within him.

Xu Chen said: "Nothing much, just wanted to kill you and see if anything happens."

Jiang Feng screamed: "You dare slaughter a fellow disciple? I am the most outstanding freshman of the Sword Dao Academy; are you not afraid of my Master?"

Xu Chen smiled, "It wasn't us who killed them. Could it not have been a demon beast or someone from the Demonic Sect?"

Having spoken, Xu Chen prepared to strike.

Unexpectedly, Bu Fengshuang beside him acted first, saying coldly, "Die."

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, within the formation, ten thousand spiritual energy swords launched simultaneously.

Jiang Feng was completely caught off guard and had no means to block; he was pierced through the body by the ten thousand swords on the spot.

His entire body was covered in bruised blood, riddled with blood holes, looking utterly miserable and terrifying.

"Bang!"

As he fell, he turned into a corpse.

Shortly after, flames rose within the formation, directly burning Jiang Feng into ash.

Finally, a breeze swept through the formation, scattering the ash completely, while crashing waves washed away every trace of blood.

In that instant, it appeared that not only was there no person, but the scene seemed to have no trace of battle whatsoever.

Xu Chen clicked his tongue. "Damn, killing people has a complete set of procedures!"

They used it with incredible proficiency; the entire process never paused for even a moment.

Is this what a high-intelligence, ruthless woman looks like?

Awesome!
