Chapter 789: Cruelty of the Heavenly Battle Palace

“Inside the Heavenly Battle Palace, there are more than a hundred true inheritors. Even after putting in sweat and blood, we are unable to win the rights to the Heaven Series training room. It is unreasonable that he gets the rights to it so easily.”

All sorts of words of dissatisfaction came from the mouths of the previous true inheritors. As they looked at Xiao Chen, they felt even more curious. What exactly were his origins?

Could Xiao Chen be a new disciple of some major character within the sect? If he did not rely on any connections, there was no way he could gain such a privilege.

These people could not be faulted for having such thoughts. Jealousy and suspicion were normal human behavior. Furthermore, Xiao Chen looked ordinary without anything special to him.

Zhong Yi looked at the command medallion Shui Lingling held out. His expression turned strange because the command medallion was real; Shui Lingling had spoken the truth.

“First Senior Sister, this is going to be problematic to deal with. This time, the person with the rights to the Heaven Series training room is Cui Hao. He is rather hot-tempered. Furthermore, he has been the champion of the competitions for half a year straight. It would be difficult to make him move out.”

Shui Lingling repeated Cui Hao’s name once to herself. Then, she said, “This is rather difficult to handle. However, this situation with Xiao Chen is special. Cui Hao really has to vacate the training room for this one month.”

Xiao Chen entered deep thought. Given the reaction of this group of people, the Heaven Series training room should have great effects for cultivation.

Otherwise, these people would not have objected so strongly. Having concluded this, Xiao Chen could not help but hold some anticipation in his heart.

As the others watched Xiao Chen and Shui Lingling leave, they hesitated for a while before following them. They really wanted to see Cui Hao’s expression when he learned of this matter.

When Xiao Chen and Shui Lingling entered the palace gates, the interior of the Heavenly Battle Palace came into view. The style of the Heavenly Battle Palace could be described with two words: tall and big. Every pavilion and building within it was extraordinarily tall and large.

This architecture gave it an extremely crude and simple ambiance. There was also an incredibly vast drill ground with many disciples exchanging moves in it.

When these disciples saw Xiao Chen, who was behind Shui Lingling, they all stopped what they were doing. Their First Senior Sister actually brought a male disciple in.

Furthermore, based on the expressions of Shui Lingling and Xiao Chen, they seemed rather familiar with each other. This intimacy was something that had never happened before.

After these people asked Zhong Yi, who was trailing behind, about the situation, they revealed similar expressions as the people earlier at his answer.

“This is impossible. He is just a hairless brat. The moment he enters, he is assigned the Heaven Series training room? Is something wrong? Not to mention Cui Hao, even I disagree with this.”

[Note: Hairless brat refers to a young person. The hair here refers to the pubic hair, which does not grow out until after puberty. Of course, it is not saying that Xiao Chen has not passed puberty yet; it is just an exaggeration.]

The people who could enter the Heavenly Battle Palace were excellent true inheritors among the previous batches, so they were all rather proud people.

These people were not very young. When they saw a junior receiving special treatment, even if he had the First Elder’s command medallion, they felt extremely dissatisfied.

The entire group of people followed after the two to watch the situation develop. Several people even discussed how to deal with Xiao Chen and show off their strength to the newcomer.

Before the Heaven Series training room, Cui Hao, who was in tight blue robes, unsurprisingly revealed a sullen expression when he heard Shui Lingling’s words.

Cui Hai snorted coldly and said in extreme dissatisfaction with a dark expression, “You want me to move out and give way to a hairless brat? Shui Lingling, don’t you feel that you are just humiliating me here?” He appeared highly capable and had a skinny figure.

When Shui Lingling saw that Cui Hao was being fractious, her temper immediately flared up. She said sternly, “Cui Hao, this is the First Elder’s command medallion. Even the Palace Master has to obey his commands.”

Cui Hao looked away and stared at Xiao Chen. He said, “I don’t care about any First Elder’s command medallion. I won the rights to this Heaven Series training room. I am following the teachings of the Heavenly Battle Palace.

“You want me to move out? Sure, defeat me first.”

Shui Lingling still had more to say. However, Xiao Chen smiled gently and answered before she said anything, “That is exactly what I was thinking. I do not want people saying that I relied on connections to get in here.”

Xiao Chen had heard clearly all the discussions and slander of the people behind them about him. Even if he could ignore them, he had to consider Shui Lingling’s feelings.

“Xiao Chen, have you thought it through? Actually, Cui Hao’s words are quite reasonable. These are indeed the teachings of the Heavenly Battle Palace. I think that by assigning the Heaven Series training room to you, the First Elder is giving you a final test.”

Shui Lingling secretly projected her voice to Xiao Chen, Cui Hao is thirty-eight years old this year. He is more than ten years older than you. He became a half-Sage ten years ago and was previously the top true inheritor.

He definitely has a lot of talent. Furthermore, he spent the past few years bitterly cultivating in the Heavenly Battle Palace. Even though you have comprehended a will, there is no guarantee that you can defeat him.

Xiao Chen projected his voice as well to reply, First Senior Sister, don’t worry. I am fully confident. Even if I lose, it just means that my skills are weaker then his. There would be nothing to begrudge.

Cui Hao had not expected Xiao Chen to answer so straightforwardly. He smiled and said, “You are rather brave. Come with me to the drill ground. If I lose, I, Cui Hao, will have nothing to complain about.”

Just at this moment, something strange happened.

“Where did this nameless brat come from? The moment he comes here, he wants to stay in the Heaven Series training room? Furthermore, he is going to make a move on Senior Brother Cui? I, Tian Mou, refuse to accept this.”

“I, Liu Shui, do not accept this too.”

“I, Bai Feng, do not accept this, either.”

Within the Heavenly Battle Palace, there were many arrogant and unyielding people. These people were the ones who were planning on bullying Xiao Chen earlier. When they shouted together, they sounded quite mighty.

“Bang!”

The moment the three spoke, Xiao Chen’s figure flashed. He moved like the wind, threading through the crowd. Then he arrived before the person who spoke first.

This person with the family name Tian was forty years old this year. He had already advanced to half-Sage many years ago. The Heavenly Sage Laws behind this person were all the thickness of a pinky, and they looked very dense.

He had seventy-odd Heavenly Sage Laws. With such talent and cultivation realm, he had definitely been an outstanding talent in the period before the age of geniuses.

However, the age of geniuses had arrived. If these people could not see the situation clearly and adjust their mindset, managing their pride, they would be in for a hard time.

Xiao Chen went forward and immediately threw a punch at this person. His Heavenly Sage Laws waved behind him, revealing thumb-thick purple ribbons of light.

As the Heavenly Sage Laws moved up and down, electric light poured out. Boundless lightning-attributed Spiritual Energy surged towards Xiao Chen’s fist. As he punched, the roar of wind and thunder filled the place.

When Tian Mou saw the Heavenly Sage Laws behind Xiao Chen, his expression could not help but change slightly. He wanted to retreat, but it was already too late. He could only face Xiao Chen’s punch head-on.

The Heavenly Sage Laws behind the two formed long ribbons of light. As these danced, a loud howling resounded nonstop. The Spiritual Energy in the surroundings fluctuated intensely.

“Bang!”

A dull ‘thud’ rang out the moment the two fists connected. Blood leaked out of Tian Mou’s lips as he immediately went flying back. The other disciples in the way quickly moved aside.

Tian Mou flew back a hundred meters before he crashed on the ground and stood back up with difficulty. He felt his Qi and blood surge. His right fist hurt so much that it trembled.

Tian Mou felt like his punch had landed on an iron mountain. He glanced at Xiao Chen, who had not budged at all, and revealed an expression of horror in his eyes.

The two disciples who had also shouted quickly dashed over and asked worriedly, “Brother Tian, are you alright?!”

The disciples who moved aside stared at Xiao Chen in astonishment. Although this Tian Mou was not an exceptional disciple in the Heavenly Battle Palace, his strength spoke for itself.

After cultivating in the Heavenly Battle Palace for so many years, putting in sweat and blood, everyone was obviously an extraordinary half-Sage.

However, Xiao Chen still knocked Tian Mou back. If they continued fighting, Tian Mou would end up severely injured in less than twenty moves.

“What an extraordinary fellow! Has the world outside really changed that much?” someone commented softly. They had also heard of the age of geniuses. Several people revealed sad expressions.

Cui Hao’s expression turned grave as well. He said in a deep voice, “I’ll wait for you at the drill ground!”

After Cui Hao spoke, he leaped up and turned into a multicolored light heading for the Heavenly Battle Palace’s drill ground. Xiao Chen gently sprang into the air and followed quickly. action

“Come, I want to see just how strong this demonic genius from the outside is.”

Holding in their anger, several people soared into the air and flew to the drill ground.

When Shui Lingling saw this scene, her expression became complicated. These people were excellent Supreme Sky Sect true inheritors of their time. However, they had been born too early.

These people missed the age of geniuses, brushing by it. Their past glories were not worth mentioning in this age of geniuses. She could easily imagine their unhappiness.

“The true inheritors for this year have already been decided. There will be more newcomers to the Heavenly Battle Palace than before. It is good for Xiao Chen to give this bunch of people a reminder.”

Shui Lingling gently pushed off the ground and also headed for the drill ground.

---

“Sou! Sou!”

Two beams of lights landed one after another. Xiao Chen and Cui Hao stood on opposite ends of this vast and tough drill ground.

Now, the blue-robed Cui Hao no longer dared to underestimate Xiao Chen. A yellow disk flew out from his body and floated above his head.

This disk gave off a light similar to moonlight, which turned into fine lines and encased Cui Hao. Then, he stretched his hand out, and a bent waning moon saber appeared in his grip.

This saber looked as smooth as a mirror, its blade cold and emotionless. It was very curved, looking even more beautiful than the moon.

The moonlight given off by the disk reflected off the saber, bringing out the best of each other. This presented a lovely scene.

Xiao Chen looked at the disk above Cui Hao’s head and raised his eyebrows slightly. This was a completely refined Sage Grade Secret Treasure. The Heavenly Sage Laws contained within could absorb the energy of moonlight.

That Elder Qin said that my pagoda is not completely refined. However, I feel that it already is. It looks like there are still many secrets about Sage Grade Secret Treasures that I don’t know. When I have time, I should go and learn from him.

Cui Hao pointed his saber at Xiao Chen and said calmly, “Draw your saber. I can see the saber intent hidden in your eyes.”

“Sorry for the offense.”

With a flip of his hand, the Lunar Shadow Saber appeared in Xiao Chen’s left hand. He gripped the saber hilt with his right and leaped into the air, instantly executing the Azure Emperor’s Drawing the Saber.

At that moment, seventy-two Xiao Chens appeared in Cui Hao’s eyes. Each figure represented a different trajectory.

Cui Hao squinted, and all the figures in the air merged. Xiao Chen had already drawn the saber. Dark clouds covered the sky, and this saber became like a horrifying purple lightning bolt.

This attack was very mighty, its trajectory unpredictable. By the time Cui Hao discovered that Xiao Chen had drawn his saber, the saber light was already before him.
