Chapter 2964: The Journey of Cultivation Is Not Easy, Just Make the Best of It

Unsurprisingly, Yu Chenglong had advanced to the final round while Gu Maolu entered the Top 200 place as well. However, Bai Ying was unexpectedly defeated and failed to advance to the next round.

“I met a strong opponent that I had met once before. I have bad luck this time.”

Bai Ying shook his head with a bitter smile. He could only blame the poor arrangement of the groups. It was a pity that Bai Ying was knocked out in the very first round, he was supposed to enter the Top 50.

In the second round, Jiang Chen had successfully defeated his opponent and qualified for the next round. And so did Gu Maolu, both of them moved into the Top 100 smoothly.

In the third round, Gu Maolu failed to make it but he still got a chance to progress to the Top 100 contest by fighting one more round.

For the fourth round, Jiang Chen met someone who was stronger and more powerful compared to his previous opponents. He was a Late Divine King Realm expert who was not inferior to the Jiang Brothers.

“Are you a new disciple?”

Jiang Chen’s opponent wore a deep frown and said in a low voice.

“Do you know me?”

Jiang Chen was slightly startled.

“You still managed to stay unmoved even after you saw me, Thunderclap Cui Yan, which means that you know nothing about me. So that is the only explanation for this situation, you are a new disciple. historical

Cui Yan said with a sneer.

“I ranked 66th place in the Heaven Ascension List, my name is Thunderclap Cui Yan.”

“I’ve never heard of that name.”

Jiang Chen shook his head.

Cui Yan’s face contorted. Jiang Chen did not show any respect to him. In fact, the 66th place in the Heaven Ascension List was already considered an extraordinary achievement. Even Yu Chenglong was only placed slightly ahead of him, they only have around twenty to thirty places between them.

“Hey new disciple, do you think that you could act recklessly after winning a few rounds? I will teach you some lessons today and I hope you don’t simply submit to me and beg for my forgiveness.”

Cui Yan said in a low voice. Those who ranked in the Top 100 in the Heaven Ascension List were undoubtedly tough opponents. He would be disgraced if he did not teach Jiang Chen a lesson.

“This round is not going to be easy for Jiang Chen.”

Bai Ying murmured under his breath.

“You’re right. Thunderclap Cui Yan is a thoroughly evil type of person who is even more venomous than the Jiang Brothers. I wish Jiang Chen could stay to the end, however, it is also better to just give up if he can’t resist. Well, while there’s life, there’s hope.”

Gu Maolu looked serious at the moment. Even though Jiang Chen was able to kill the Jiang Brothers, there were still a great deal of tough opponents who were stronger than them. Most of them lived a life of recluse and cultivated silently. Not only that, even those experts who did not rank in the Heaven Ascension List should not be underestimated as well.

“According to Cui Yan’s ability, I could probably knock him down in fifty moves.”

Yu Chenglong said lightly. Apparently, Cui Yan’s strength was highly rated by Yu Chenglong. He would not be an ordinary opponent if Yu Chenglong ranked his achievement high.

“It is not as easy as you thought to advance to the Top 10. There are some strong experts who seclude themselves from the outside world who could set the world on fire with their true strength. Some of the opponents whom I met previously are even comparable to Jiang Tian’s strength.”

Yu Chenglong said, shaking his head. Those strong experts tended to work hard silently and stunned the people throughout the world with impressive achievements in one day. The generous prize had successfully attracted a great deal of geniuses.

“Strike now.”

Jiang Chen said calmly. He was not afraid of Cui Yan at all.

“You’re such an arrogant man. I, Cui Yan, swear to take your life today.”

Cui Yan roared furiously. He used to be predominant and possessive so it would be an unbearable torment for him to take insults. He was boiling with rage at this moment.

“Stop talking nonsense.”

Jiang Chen frowned and stepped forward. He swept over the sky with lightning and thunder. He struck out arrogantly, with an overwhelming spirit.

Jiang Chen raised the storms by moving his fists and palms. The wind was howling violently and the waves raised rapidly. It gave a great pressure to Cui Yan.

“Great!”

There was a kind of glitter in Cui Yan’s eyes, he roared in a deep voice and held a nine-foot long blade that had sharp edges. It was raised swiftly, rushing at Jiang Chen and blocking his path.

Jiang Chen was definitely a tough nut to crack. At this moment, no one expected him to fight against Cui Yan with his bare hands, without using any Divine Tools.

“Jiang Chen is thinking too much of himself.”

Yu Chenglong wrinkled a frown. Cui Yan was a tough opponent but how dare Jiang Chen treat him this way? Was he sure of winning this round or just acting recklessly?

It was an intense fight. Jiang Chen took a few steps backward, raised the storms once again and ran toward Cui Yan. In Jiang Chen’s point of view, his fists were stronger than any Divine Tools or weapons.

“Pulling the moon with the rainbows!”

Cui Yan struck back instantly. He pointed his long blade to the ocean, the waves rolled and surged ferociously. He was not giving Jiang Chen any breathing space. He was trying to kill Jiang Chen with a series of attacks. Most of the people watching were impressed with Cui Yan’s strength, his reputation was well-deserved. There was no doubt that he was one of the Top 20 strongest experts in the Outer Palace.

“Jiang Chen is going to lose the battle.”

Yu Chenglong shook his head slightly. Cui Yan’s attack was very aggressive, overwhelming and unbeatable. He struck a deadly blow at Jiang Chen and the entire world rapidly changed colour.

“Cui Yan is too terrifying.”

“You’re right. His reputation is well-deserved. If this guy tries to resist this blow and still refuses to surrender, he will probably suffer severe injuries or even die immediately……”

“Jiang Chen!”

Gu Maolu gritted his teeth. Was this guy going to lose? It was not a shame to lose this fight, but it was not worth losing his life for this.

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat, they were worried about Jiang Chen. Meanwhile Jiang Chen stayed calm and fearless. He reached out and held the blade in his hand. The moment he clenched his fists, the nine-foot long blade broke apart into pieces and a long shower of sparks spread all over the world. The audience exclaimed in shock and burst into an uproar.

Jiang Chen still looked calm. He struck out a strong blow once again, it pierced through the void and rushed at Cui Yan. Cui Yan was completely dumbfounded as Jiang Chen was able to resist his deadly blow easily and his nine-foot long blade, his Origin Divine Tool was utterly broken in pieces. He wondered how strong those fists were in order to withstand his attack.

Cui Yan heaved a cold breath when Jiang Chen’s clenched fist nearly beat him on the head. But it stopped. Cui Yan looked ghastly pale, his sweat was pouring down as he barely escaped from the jaws of death.

“I……I lose……”

Cui Yan was filled with fright and astonishment. He knew all too well that Jiang Chen could’ve easily taken his life with this powerful punch but Jiang Chen pulled his punch at the last second. Jiang Chen was able to control his punches with ease after striking out aggressively as he got everything under his control. His strength was just incredibly outstanding and stunning.

“Thank you……”

Cui Yan reddened. He did not feel angry but felt a great sense of relief and dread flooded over him. Jiang Chen was extraordinarily strong and he was certainly not a match for him. The moment that Jiang Chen struck out at lightning speed, he could do nothing with him. In this battle, he just sent the helve after the hatchet, even his Origin Divine Tools was destroyed. But he was greatly relieved and grateful when Jiang Chen held back and spared his life.

“The journey of cultivation is not easy, just make the best of it.”

Jiang Chen turned and walked away. The new disciples’ area burst into thunderous applause and cheers. He was amazing and impressive!
