Chapter 48: Withstanding an Earth Grade Strike Without Defeat

Everyone could see that Ye Xuan's move surpassed Earth Grade martial arts.

Without a Fifth Grade or higher Physical Body, suffering such an attack would inevitably cause severe injury, or even ruin one.

Shangguan Luoyun and Luo Shen also showed coldness in their eyes; in the previous life, Xu Chen had been severely injured and knocked flying.

In the end, Xu Chen had to recover for a long time before he could return to normal.

The other heroines watched the scene before them tensely, their jade hands clenched tight.

They bit their silver teeth hard, secretly resenting that they could not act on the competition field.

However, if Ye Xuan dared to hurt Brother Chen, then he was finished.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, Xu Chen was submerged in countless sharp sword shadows, his figure completely invisible.

Sword Qi radiated from the surroundings, shooting straight into the sky with an extraordinary momentum.

The air even exploded, and the ground cracked everywhere, spreading out like a spiderweb.

An astonishing aura constantly surged and scattered in all directions.

At this moment, everyone's gaze condensed within those ten thousand sword lights.

Their expectation was intense to the extreme; they very much wanted to know: this time, could Xu Chen win?

About ten or so seconds later, all the sword shadows crashed down onto Xu Chen.

The Spiritual Qi gradually dissipated, and the light slowly receded.

Xu Chen's figure reappeared in everyone's vision.

"He's actually unharmed?"

But the instant they saw clearly, their eyes instantly widened, and they exclaimed on the spot.

Damn it!

If Xu Chen could block this shocking Earth Grade martial arts strike, does that mean he has a Fifth Grade Physical Body?

In an instant, tens of thousands of people at the scene all showed shock, their mouths agape.

A freshman reaching the Fourth Grade Late Stage realm was one thing, but possessing a Fifth Grade Physical Body?

Let alone older students, I'm afraid even some Elders couldn't match this!

This is too awesome!

The smile originally on Ye Xuan's lips completely vanished upon seeing this scene.

His face looked ugly, and his eyes were full of disbelief: "I could understand if you had a Fourth Grade Physical Body a month ago, but a Fifth Grade one a month later?

I cannot understand this, let alone accept it. Damn it, you can't be this strong."

If he is currently practicing Dan-Wu Dual Cultivation, then Xu Chen is practicing Body-Martial Dual Cultivation!

His Physical Body is so strong it can shatter space.

"Holy crap! He's fine?"

Xu Chen, who had already prepared to lose, was instantly stunned.

He hadn't even cultivated powerful martial arts much, and his realm had progressed according to the original text.

Even the words he spoke during the fight were almost the same as in the original text.

In the original text, he was blasted flying; now he is completely unharmed?

This is too ridiculous.

"System, I suppressed the protagonist again; will something go wrong?"

Xu Chen asked with a headache.

The System responded: "It seems... nothing is wrong."

Xu Chen: "..."

An unreliable dog System.

He said speechlessly: "It wasn't me acting actively; I followed the original plot exactly, not even adding a single extra word."

The System said: "Indeed, although the major plot had a deviation, it seems there is no problem."

Hearing this, Xu Chen immediately narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought.

No problem?

He began to recall past battles.

Starting from Qingyang City in this life, every time he suppressed Ye Xuan by a head, there was no problem.

However, every time it was passive; not once was he the active one.

Is it really as the System said, that as long as he doesn't harbor thoughts of destroying the plot, but simply follows the plot faithfully, then he won't be reborn into a cycle?

As for any other problems arising on this basis, do those not count as problems?

He posed this question to the System.

The System nodded: "Indeed so, just as I said before; just finish the major plot."

Xu Chen curled his lip; you damn scammer, you said "seems" before, which is the same as saying nothing.

However, at this moment, Xu Chen showed joy on his face.

Good, from now on he just needs to avoid actively defeating Ye Xuan, but Ye Xuan can be defeated by himself.

Just like now, Ye Xuan must have suffered a huge setback.

Therefore, Xu Chen lazily looked at Ye Xuan and said: "Is that it? Are you scratching my itch? Can you even do it, you trash?"

In the original text, he, this villain, was the one constantly calling Xu Chen "trash."

From childhood to adulthood, it has always been like this.

He was suppressed for ninety-nine lifetimes before; now, being called a trash protagonist without being suppressed feels great.

Ye Xuan's forehead was bulging with veins: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it, I am not trash either."

He practices Dan-Wu Dual Cultivation, a rare prodigy in the world; how could he possibly be trash?

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

Having thought this, he unleashed Haoxuan Thousand Swords again and rushed wildly at Xu Chen.

In an instant, countless sword shadows, like dark clouds, enveloped Xu Chen layer upon layer.

The momentum this time was even stronger than last time.

Yet when the sword shadows dispersed, everyone gasped again to see that Xu Chen was still unharmed.

He didn't even lose a single hair!

Instead, Xu Chen's physical body was faintly emitting a pale glow, repelling all ten thousand sword shadows.

Xu Chen's expression remained calm; he brushed his clothes and said proudly, "Trash, your sword shadows have dirtied my clothes."

At this moment, Ye Xuan's face turned as grim as it could possibly be.
