Xiao Chen returned to the courtyard where the outer-courtyard disciples lived and continued practicing there, just as he had the previous day.

Meanwhile… At North Hill of Red Mountain City

A thin mist hung low among the wild trees.

A black-robed figure moved swiftly along the narrow path. His steps were calm, but the gaze hidden beneath the shadow of his hood constantly observed his surroundings.

Elder Qiao Ye was in no hurry.

After receiving Meng Qianyue’s report regarding the deaths of the fo

    After the intense match between Sima Ruoxi and Jiang Chen came to an end, the atmosphere around the Main Square gradually grew lively once again.However, the spectators did not have to wait long to witness the next match. The academy's supervising elders quickly signaled for the Top Twenty round to continue.Of the ten scheduled matches, it was now time for the tenth match, which would also be the final battle of this round.This match attracted the attention of many outer-courtyard disciples because both contestants were known for relying on physical strength in battle.The academy referee's voice once again echoed throughout the square.“Match Ten of the Top Twenty Round! Xiao Chen versus Bao Shan! Both contestants, please step onto the platform!”Upon hearing the announcement, Xiao Chen calmly walked forward from the side of the arena. His gray robe moved lightly with his steady steps. His expression remained unchanged, as though the upcoming match were nothing worth worrying abou

    The two once again faced each other after maintaining their distance for a while. Blood was still flowing from the wound on Sima Ruoxi's right arm, while the injury on Jiang Chen's side had yet to stop bleeding completely.Jiang Chen studied his opponent with a more serious gaze. After their last few exchanges, he had begun to realize that Sima Ruoxi was no longer merely trying to keep up with his speed.The girl was observing something.If he allowed this to continue, his advantage in speed might become increasingly difficult to exploit.Jiang Chen immediately changed his movement pattern. This time, he no longer moved along regular circular trajectories.His steps became shorter and more erratic. Sometimes he would pause for an instant before suddenly changing direction, making his movements difficult to predict.The two daggers in his hands began moving once again.One slash aimed at Sima Ruoxi's upper body, while the other dagger followed from a different angle. The attacks arrive

    The cheers of the spectators, which had continued to echo from the previous match, gradually subsided as the academy referee once again stepped forward to the center of the main platform.The atmosphere around the arena was filled with anticipation, especially since the Top Twenty round had continued to deliver battles whose outcomes were difficult to predict.Following the order of the draw displayed on the announcement board, after several matches had passed, the next bout was finally called.“Match Nine of the Top Twenty Round! Sima Ruoxi versus Jiang Chen! Both contestants, please step onto the arena!”Upon hearing the announcement, Sima Ruoxi slowly drew a breath to steady herself. She straightened her robe for a moment before walking toward the platform steps with a calm expression. On the opposite side, Jiang Chen was already standing on the stone arena.Jiang Chen was an outer-courtyard disciple widely known for his agility.Unlike Bao Shan, who relied on raw strength, or Lin

    The air above the stone platform suddenly grew heavier. Moments after Lin Feng declared that he would no longer hold back, the invisible pressure emanating from his sword blade slowly spread throughout the arena.Whoosh!Lin Feng stepped forward. His movements appeared no different from before, but the wind accompanying each of his sword strikes now felt far sharper.“Frost Dew Sword Technique: Third Layer!”The sword blade shot forward at astonishing speed, emitting a silvery gleam accompanied by a piercing chill. Guan Yu, who had previously been able to block or deflect his attacks with her palms, immediately pulled both hands back.She no longer dared to clash with him directly.The pressure arising from his initial understanding of Sword Intent gave every one of Lin Feng's sword strikes destructive power far beyond that of ordinary sword attacks. Even when the blade merely sliced through the air, the gust it produced was enough to leave painful scratches on Guan Yu's skin.Clang!

    The atmosphere in the main square grew increasingly lively after the Top Twenty round officially began. Disciples who were not participating in the matches began looking for places to watch the fights, while several participants prepared themselves as they waited for their turns.Not long afterward, the academy supervisor's voice echoed across the entire square once more.“Match Six of the Top Twenty Round! Guan Yu versus Lin Feng! Both participants, please step onto the arena!”Upon hearing her name called, Guan Yu immediately broke into a confident smile. She glanced briefly at Xiao Chen and Sima Ruoxi before stepping forward.“Watch closely. I'll show you how to deal with that cold swordsman!”After saying this, Guan Yu sprang forward and leaped onto the stone platform with a light movement. Her academy robe fluttered briefly before both feet landed firmly on the ground.On the opposite side, Lin Feng showed no reaction whatsoever. He calmly walked up the arena steps, then stopped

    After the fierce battle that had brought Cang Ming down, the spectators' cheers gradually subsided.Xiao Chen did not immediately rejoin the crowd of disciples. Instead, he moved to one side of the square to regulate his breathing and ease the tension in his left arm muscles.Several parts of his arm still ached from Cang Ming's earlier attacks. Although his physical strength had improved after reaching the Second Stage of the Golden Lightning God Body Technique, that did not mean he could simply ignore every injury he sustained.Moreover, during his fight against Cang Ming, Xiao Chen had not activated the Golden Lightning God Body Technique at all. He had relied solely on the physical strength he had tempered through his training.He slowly moved the fingers of his left hand, making sure there was no serious damage before circulating Pseudo-Qi throughout his body once more.Meanwhile, the Top Forty elimination round continued without any lengthy pauses. One match after another was he
