Chapter 130: The Disciple with Insight Takes Action
Chapter 130: The Disciple with Insight Takes Action
Long Yunyun still stood at the forefront, seemingly waiting for others to challenge her.
Her proud demeanor caused the disciples of Tiangang City to mutter under their breath.
"Good at talking, you sure have a lot to say when it comes to insults."
But do you think this will affect me? Seeing you get angry and frustrated, yet unable to do anything about it, only makes me feel more fortunate.
I'm grateful to be born in Heavenly Wind Valley, not Tiangang City."
This time, even Hall Master Mu, standing nearby, didn't know how to respond.
His granddaughter was rude and arrogant.
But despite that, Tiangang City couldn't suppress her. What could they do?
"Is there anyone else who wants to participate in the competition? If there's a junior disciple with insight, perception, and a big picture mindset, I'd like to see you step up."
If you win, I, Long Yunyun, will directly give up two qualification spots to you. How about that?"
Before Long Yunyun could finish her words, Hall Master Ding Jiujiang of Heavenly Wind Valley interrupted with a reprimand.
"Long Yunyun, be mindful of your words and don't go too far."
After this scolding, it seemed like the others couldn't bring themselves to criticize her further.
Ding Jiujiang appeared to be scolding Long Yunyun, but those with keen eyes could tell he was actually playing along with her.
It seemed like the people of Heavenly Wind Valley also wanted Long Yunyun to win a few more training qualifications.
That way, they could bring more disciples along.
At this moment, it seemed inappropriate to mention the concept of utilizing resources to their fullest potential.
As long as their disciples from Heavenly Wind Valley came for training, even if their talents and potential were inferior to those of Tiangang City, they were making the most of their resources.
Many disciples from Tiangang City had gathered.
Long Yunyun had mentioned Su Chen more than once, causing many disciples of Tiangang City to shift their gaze towards him.
However, the crowd from Tiangang City wasn't ready to place their hopes on Su Chen.
During the mid-year assessment, although Su Chen had made Gu Wei fall behind when they sparred, Gu Wei had restrained her strength to the Seventh Stage Embraced Valley Initial Realm and hadn't fought with her full strength.
Today, facing Long Yunyun, Gu Wei didn't hold back at all.
She even took out the sword that Gu Feng had given her.
Despite this, when sparring with Long Yunyun, she lost without any suspense.
She was gradually overpowered, unable to find a way to counter.
Many disciples of Tiangang City looked at Su Chen, and after a while, they shook their heads slightly, seemingly dismissing certain thoughts.
In the crowd, Jin Yue noticed that Su Chen seemed to be eager to step up.
Standing next to Su Chen, she tugged at his sleeve and nodded repeatedly.
"The training qualification for Mountain River Pool is hard-earned. We don't need to be provoked by Long Yunyun's taunts, trying to make you lose another qualification to her.
Su Shixiong, let her say whatever she wants."
Jin Yue's words were a form of persuasion, as she was worried that Su Chen's impulsiveness might lead to trouble.
The surrounding disciples of Tiangang City both hoped that Su Chen would step up and display the pride of a Tiangang City disciple.
Yet, they also wished for Su Chen to remain calm and not act rashly.
After all, if he went forward to spar, the likelihood of losing was high, and it would be another blow to their reputation.
Without seeing a chance of winning, it seemed better not to participate at all.
Unbeknownst to them, Gu Wei had already positioned herself not far from Su Chen.
Her expression was still unpleasant, and her overall state didn't seem good, as if her surging blood hadn't settled down yet.
"You're no match for her. Her true strength can even compete with those in the Fourth Rank Mountain Cauldron Initial Realm.
Among the disciples around twenty years old, none in Tiangang City can defeat her."
As Gu Wei spoke, she noticed that both Su Chen and Jin Yue were looking at her with a hint of surprise.
"I don't want you to go up there and give them another training qualification, benefiting the people of Tianfeng Valley.
I didn't mean to help you."
Although she said this, with the external enemy at hand, she couldn't help but remind Su Chen.
She didn't want Su Chen to go up there and suffer a loss.
Others didn't have confidence in themselves, but Su Chen had a full understanding of his own abilities.
Within Tiangang City, many people didn't even know they had reached the Seventh Stage Valley Embracement Realm.
They didn't know much about themselves, so it was normal to lack confidence.
On this trip of training, Su Chen learned a lot from Senior Autumn and gained a lot of understanding.
His combat response techniques could be considered learned from a Transcendent Realm expert.
Moreover, it was a very young and talented Transcendent Realm expert.
In addition, the Moon Overflow Divine Art passed down by Senior Autumn, Su Chen also had some minor achievements.
By circulating the Moon Overflow Divine Art, he elevated his power from the initial stage of the Seventh Stage to the Perfected Realm, but it was just a matter of physical exhaustion and backlash.
Su Chen had some confidence facing Long Yunyun.
With this thought, Su Chen nodded to Jin Yue at his side, revealing a smile.
He then stepped out of the crowd and walked to the front of the main hall.
Su Chen's advance surprised many people present.
In the central position, Upper Proclamation True Person frowned and shook his head at Su Chen.
Su Chen understood the Upper Proclamation True Person's meaning and firmly nodded, indicating his acknowledgment.
In front of the main hall, Long Yunyun welcomed her second opponent.
Before Su Chen came up, she thought no one dared to challenge her again.
Long Yunyun's face also showed a smile, as if seeing Su Chen come to challenge her, she felt very pleased.
"The Great Elder said you have insight and perception, but I don't think so.
I haven't seen any evidence of your insight or perception.
But I believe you definitely have courage."
Long Yunyun said with a smile.
During the noon break, she actually heard some news from others.
She knew how powerful Su Chen was and what his reputation in Tiangang City was.
Compared to when she faced Gu Wei, Long Yunyun's face showed much more ease.
In the crowd, Gu Wei saw Su Chen step forward and became a little angry.
"Do you really think I'm harming him? I advised him not to go forward, but he insisted on going!"
In an instant, Su Chen had already launched a knife attack.
He directly used the second layer of Cloudwalking Steps, combined with the Qi Guide Heavenly Destiny.
The subtlety of his movements seemed to have evolved.
In the past, when using the Lin Family Saber Technique, he would only try to experiment with deceptive and variable moves.
After receiving guidance from Senior Autumn, Su Chen had been trying to integrate all his moves.
Deceptive and variable moves were a set of universal techniques.
Body movements could be deceptive, saber techniques could be deceptive, and even advanced preparations could be deceptive.
During this time, Su Chen spent most of his time researching these techniques.
And now was the time to put them into practice.
His figure flickered, and the saber aura had already arrived.
Long Yunyun's face still carried a hint of ease as she lightly swung her sword, intending to block Su Chen's attack.
But in this instant, Su Chen didn't swing his saber as she expected.
Instead, his figure instantly pulled back, and two sharp saber auras slashed forward.
Su Chen's foundation was solid, and the Profound Heaven Mind Art made his power already impressive.
With the enhancement of the Qi Guide, the saber aura's might further increased significantly.
The unexpected saber attack had already reached the might of the Seventh Stage Middle Realm!
After just a few moves, Long Yunyun felt something was off.
