High-Level Martial Era - Chapter 824

Chapter 824: Chapter 429: Saint Heir Xu Yuan (Extra Chapter for Monthly Votes)
 

On the Void Arena, those hundred-plus Flying Heaven Reserve Members had already heard the words of Chi Yang True God.

“Challenge the tenth?”

“Ji Yan! Someone is challenging you.”

“So it’s Xu Yuan, eh? I had heard about it before, saying that this session has a fierce one, but I didn’t expect him to be this formidable.”

“Directly challenging the tenth, leaving no room for himself, does he not fear an accident?”

“Could he truly possess Semi-Divine Limit strength?” These hundred-plus Flying Heaven Reserve Members were quietly discussing among themselves.

It must be noted, being able to become a reserve member of the ancient city at the Flying Heaven Level, each of them could be called a favored child of heaven, with quite a few having awakened Seven Star Veins… their Law Comprehension is extremely high.

One could say, each of these Jue Xing Ancient City reserve members could burst forth with Semi-Divine strength, those ranked within the top ten… are geniuses among geniuses.

“Hmph.”

“Challenge me?” The reserve member named Ji Yan did not look very pleased.

Normally speaking, in such challenge matches, these older generation reserve members, mostly between the fiftieth to one hundredth ranks, would be challenged.

Those ranked higher are mostly just going through the motions.

But Ji Yan did not expect to be the first to be challenged, so naturally, he was annoyed.

“Ji Yan, don’t be careless.” The woman in a purple gauze dress said softly, “Rumors say he has Semi-Divine Limit strength, but that battle was very short, and there’s only this one fight…”

“But, even if the rumor is false, if he managed to survive an assassination by a Pseudo-God, he shouldn’t be a fool, daring to challenge the tenth, he must not be weak.”

“Mm.”

“Qi Xia, don’t worry.” Ji Yan’s gaze was cold, he murmured lowly: “I don’t believe it, a youngster who has practiced for just over thirty years, never having cultivated in the Ancient City, how could he possibly burst forth with Semi-Divine Limit strength?”

Hoo!

Ji Yan’s figure moved, already floating down into the Void Arena.

Actually, Ji Yan’s thought represented the views of quite a number of reserve members… Many had gotten information about Xu Yuan, at least acknowledging the person.

But regarding ‘Semi-Divine Limit strength’, many Flying Heaven reserve members were skeptical.

Just surviving a Divine assassination does not prove one’s strength conclusively.

Moreover, most of them were brilliant talents from their respective Divine Kingdoms, having been nurtured for decades in Jue Xing Ancient City, what kind of strength could they have?

Drawing from oneself and others, without showcasing real combat achievements, it’s hard to completely convince them.

Shoo!

Li Yuan’s figure moved, likewise transforming into a stream of light, rushing into the Void Arena.

The two were tens of kilometers apart, facing each other from afar.

At this moment.

Whether it was those thousand Pseudo-Gods, or the tens of thousands of Flying Heaven Semi-Divines in the square, their gaze fell upon the two.

“Big brother, can Brother Xu win?” Jiang Xuan was incredibly nervous, “This is one of the top geniuses, ranked in the top ten amongst Flying Heaven in Jue Xing Ancient City.”

“Hard to say.”

“If Brother Xu Yuan really has the strength rumored… but I’m worried, back when he resisted the Law Treasure, it was with the help of external objects.” Jiang Shan communicated through voice transmission: “After all, you know as well, a Flying Heaven Level attempting to erupt with Semi-Divine Limit strength is unimaginable.”

“Mm.” Jiang Xuan nodded slightly, her anxious heart somewhat relieved.

Because!

Back then, in the Abyss Demon Blood Den, she had witnessed Li Yuan defeating two Blood Demons.

…

Within the internal part of the Void Arena, Li Yuan and Ji Yan faced each other distantly.

Whir~ Along with the operation of the arena’s formation, an invisible force enveloped heaven and earth, already covering both of them with a layer of hazy azure light.

This was a protection, similar to the duels in the Nine Sound Building… once the injuries one suffered surpassed the protective azure light’s limit, they would be judged as defeated.

After all, it’s merely a sparring match, not a battle to the death, Jue Xing Ancient City did not wish for its talents to die this way.

“Unexpectedly.”

“One day, I would actually be challenged in a trial battle.” Ji Yan was also clad in black, his eyes cold, “I will let you understand, in Jue Xing Ancient City, relying on treasures is useless, the top ten of Jue Xing Ancient City’s Flying Heaven List… are not something you can shake.”

Till now, Ji Yan still believed that Li Yuan blocking the Law Treasure was not due to his own strength.

“Oh? You’re called Ji Yan, right?” Li Yuan smiled lightly: “Are you always this brave? More confident than me.”

“Bring out all your strength, I hope you’re stronger than what the intelligence mentioned, otherwise, once I make a move, you won’t have a chance.” Li Yuan said.

Ji Yan was surprised.

Those hundred-plus Flying Heaven reserve members watching from the edge of the Void Arena heard their conversation clearly and were suddenly a bit confused.

Is this Xu Yuan really so confident?

You must know, even those saint heirs ranked second or third, with strength clearly stronger than Ji Yan’s, wouldn’t have such an attitude.

“Good!”

“Very good!” Ji Yan laughed in extreme anger: “Just let me see how capable you, Xu Yuan, truly are.”

Boom!

With one step, Ji Yan instantly transformed into a ten-meter-tall figure, already having executed the Nine Layer Body Refining Star Technique: Life Breath soared to an astonishing level, nearly reaching the Semi-Divine Middle Rank, and in his hand emerged a Divine Artifact Combat Saber.

Not bursting forth before, but now having burst forth, Ji Yan gave it his all.

As a Third Rank Seven Star Veins powerhouse, he had his capital of pride.

“Kill!” Ji Yan transformed into a streak of light, closed the distance to Li Yuan in mere seconds, followed by a saber light like thunder splitting the vast sky, containing a conception of destruction, instantly striking towards Li Yuan.

In terms of strength and skill, Ji Yan was much more terrifying than Fang Hai at the Flying Heaven Level, after all, his cultivation environment was much better, and his cultivation time was longer.

“Semi-Divine Limit level technique and moves? Reaching this step at the Flying Heaven Level is indeed impressive, in terms of strength should be close to the Semi-Divine Peak.” Through that furiously chopped saber, Li Yuan easily deduced the opponent’s strength.
