Chapter 320: How to Resolve This Now?
Chapter 320: How to Resolve This Now?
Below the sprawling mountain range, those who had come to spectate had already gathered on a nearby hill, eager to witness the spectacle.
Today's Midyear Competition had attracted nearly ten thousand spectators.
However, despite the large crowd, the atmosphere was eerily quiet at this moment.
The confrontation between Wen Yuanlang and Su Chen before their eyes completely exceeded everyone's expectations.
Sun Xuerong had spoken so much, setting the stage for what was to come.
Even Lin Hai Fu's Situ Sanping was portrayed by her as a supporter of Su Chen.
Under the weight of her words, the warriors from various sects and the onlooking commoners all likely believed that Su Chen was destined to lose.
However, the outcome of this defeat might be different from what they anticipated.
Sun Xuerong had even outlined the process of Su Chen's defeat.
She went as far as to describe to everyone how, later on, Su Chen would lose to Wen Yuanlang.
Su Chen and the Tian Gang City would then start making excuses, claiming that Su Chen had exhausted too much energy and mental focus in his previous match against Situ Sanping.
This would be their way of covering up Su Chen's fabricated strength.
Sun Xuerong's message to the crowd was clear: Su Chen was bound to fail and would inevitably lose to Wen Yuanlang.
But how did the scene before them align with what Sun Xuerong had said?
She even mentioned that Su Chen would find excuses to justify his defeat.
Yet, the current situation was the exact opposite of what Sun Xuerong had stated.
Not only did Wen Yuanlang fail to completely suppress Su Chen, but he was also defeated by Su Chen's kick, leaving him unable to stand up.
This kick wasn't particularly powerful.
The primary reason was that Wen Yuanlang hadn't grasped the movement techniques of the Spirit Snake Binding Skill at all.
He took the kick squarely, completely unprepared.
As a result, he was directly struck by Su Chen.
At this moment, Wen Yuanlang, lying on the ground, struggled to get up, but he had little strength left.
Su Chen turned his head slightly to look at the location of the Yunyang Sect members.
Every member of the Yunyang Sect wore an expression of astonishment.
It was common knowledge within the Yunyang Sect that Su Chen's reputation was built upon the hype and praise from Tian Gang City.
Even core disciples like Liu Xingwan believed this, let alone others.
Among them was even Fu Jianyun, who had shown little interest in the competition.
He had glanced at Su Chen several times.
Sun Xuerong, who had spoken so much and believed she saw through everything, was now completely stunned.
She raised her hands slightly, her entire body frozen in place.
When Su Chen fought others, she could still find excuses for him.
But now, how could this be explained?
Another conspiracy of Tian Gang City?
In an instant, numerous thoughts flashed through Sun Xuerong's mind.
Below the competition platform, Situ Sanping, who had slightly recovered, witnessed this scene, and his heart felt a strange sense of relief.
He even took a few steps forward.
"Elder Sun, has your Yunyang Sect also colluded with Tian Gang City?"
"Wen Yuanlang's defeat was much worse than mine. Did he receive more benefits from Tian Gang City? Elder Sun, give us your assessment."
Situ Sanping's words were filled with mockery and banter.
But this time, Sun Xuerong couldn't come up with a response.
On the competition platform, Su Chen reached out and grabbed Wen Yuanlang.
With a light pull, he threw Wen Yuanlang off the platform.
The match ended just like that, leaving everyone in shock, and it was over before they knew it.
Before the match, perhaps even the people of Tian Gang City didn't expect this outcome.
Mr. Ouyang had some confidence in Su Chen, but he didn't anticipate that Wen Yuanlang would be defeated in a single move.
And it was such an ugly defeat.
On the Yunyang Sect's side, Hall Master Zhao Li stepped forward to catch Wen Yuanlang.
Sun Xuerong didn't even want to look at him.
"Your Highness, did I win this match?" Su Chen asked softly.
Upon hearing this, the Crown Prince finally snapped out of his astonishment.
"Of course, please return to your position and rest, Brother Su."
As he spoke, the Crown Prince walked onto the competition platform.
At this very moment, many people in the audience were still in shock.
They were still thinking about the confrontation between Su Chen and Wen Yuanlang.
This highly anticipated match ended too quickly.
After last year's assembly in the capital, Su Chen began to rise to fame, and the reputation of the Yunyang Sect was greatly influenced.
From then on, the Yunyang Sect started to publicly promote that Su Chen was intentionally hyped by Tian Gang City, but in reality, he lacked genuine talent and knowledge.
Tian Gang City merely wanted to use this to belittle the Yunyang Sect, claiming that the Yunyang Sect lacked the ability to discern the potential of its young disciples.
After the slaying of the Earth Demon, such statements became even more rampant.
Many forces began to favor the Yunyang Sect, believing their words.
But today, everything became clear.
It was said that Situ Sanping received benefits from Tian Gang City to help Su Chen cover up.
This reason could be considered plausible.
But the person who just lost was a disciple of the Yunyang Sect.
Could it be that the disciple sent by the Yunyang Sect was also helping Su Chen cover up his deception?
Sun Xuerong naturally considered saying this.
But with so many people present, would they believe it?
Not only would the crowd not accept this, but now, even Situ Sanping's deliberate loss to Su Chen was no longer believed.
Yunyang Sect had exhausted their efforts, even going as far as requesting the Imperial Court to change the competition rules, all to force Su Chen to come and prove his false strength before everyone.
To prove that Tian's Spear City's ability to nurture their disciples is no better than Yunyang Sect's.
But the current situation proves otherwise.
Wen Yuanlang's defeat, on the contrary, made the crowd see Su Chen's true strength.
Su Chen indeed has the strength and ability.
Tian's Spear City is better at nurturing disciples than Yunyang Sect.
A disciple who was driven out of Yunyang Sect is now valued in Tian's Spear City, and his strength is even comparable to a Celestial Prodigy.
The doubts of the Great Zhou citizens were not wrong.
Among the onlookers, more and more people are realizing the truth.
The crowd is becoming noisy.
"My child has been at the lowest level of Yunyang Sect for so many years, and the Sect doesn't value him at all."
"This child should have left Yunyang Sect long ago."
"Isn't my child the same? Let my child endure the hardships."
"As for cultivation and improvement, it has nothing to do with him."
"It seems we really chose the wrong sect back then."
In the Capital City, there are actually quite a few children of the citizens who are now cultivating and training in Yunyang Sect.
Before, it was fine, but with their strength not improving, they could only blame their own talent and potential.
But after this incident, there's the precedent of Su Chen.
And it's confirmed that Su Chen left Yunyang Sect and gained tremendous improvement in Tian's Spear City.
The complaints of the crowd will be completely different now.
Su Chen was a missed genius disciple, so won't their children be the same? Yunyang Sect's plan was to use Su Chen's case to fiercely retaliate against Tian's Spear City.
To make Tian's Spear City suffer the backlash of these lies.
But now, it's helping Tian's Spear City clear its name.
This year, when Yunyang Sect recruits new disciples, I wonder what they'll do, and how many more young ones will they lose?
This time, Tian's Spear City has withstood Yunyang Sect's questioning.
Yunyang Sect exposed a fake, but a real one emerged.
In the crowd, more than one person wanted to give Sun Xuerong an evaluation.
She was the noisiest just now, talking about this and that.
But now, Sun Xuerong remains silent.
As she comes back to her senses, she even walks behind the Yunyang Sect disciples.
This way, she avoids the questions from others.
She doesn't even glance at the injured Wen Yuanlang.
To be blunt, if not for seeing Wen Yuanlang injured, she would have scolded him.
Su Chen's unexpected strength makes the faces of the Yunyang Sect disciples quite unsightly.
Liu Xingwan's state seems to be a bit different.
At this moment, her expression is a bit odd.
She remembers the bet between her and Chen Su clearly.
If she wins, Chen Su must leave his original sect and join Yunyang Sect.
If she loses, as long as it doesn't harm her sect, Chen Su can make any request of her.
Thinking of this, Liu Xingwan's expression unconsciously becomes strange.
She doesn't know what she's thinking in her mind.
To be honest, when she initially proposed the conditions, she never thought she would lose.
And precisely because she never thought she would lose, she dared to propose such exaggerated conditions.
As long as it doesn't harm her sect, she can propose any conditions.
This scope is incredibly broad, and she can even propose some very excessive demands.
Externally, Liu Xingwan only told the elders about her victory.
As for what would happen if she lost, she never mentioned it.
Before, she felt there was no need to mention it, as she firmly believed that Su Chen was a kind of incapable fraud.
But now, she dares not mention these things to the elders of the sect.
Letting Chen Su make any request of Liu Xingwan, the elders of Yunyang Sect will either be scared to death or angered to death, unless the request is for Chen Su to join Yunyang Sect.
On the Martial Arena, the fourth disciple to appear still chose Shang Jia Yao.
Everyone had predicted that whoever was challenged first would face consecutive challenges.
Like Su Chen, Shang Jia Yao also faces a second challenge.
In his second challenge, his performance still isn't impressive enough.
He has the advantage, but there's no overwhelming dominance.
His opponent isn't a Celestial Prodigy like Situ Sanping, but he still exhausted quite a bit of Shang Jia Yao's energy.
This performance will only make the subsequent challengers focus more on him.
But from these exchanges, it's also evident that the other young people of the Great Zhou are not weak.
Facing top Celestial Prodigies, they also have the strength to engage.
Instead, everyone is curious about the next match, wondering if after watching Su Chen and Wen Yuanlang's exchange, the next person will still challenge Su Chen.
The fourth match is about to end, and Shang Jia Yao wins.
The viewing area remains noisy.
"Father."
Jin Yue calls out several times before Jin Shen comes back to his senses.
Even after coming back to his senses, he dares not look at his daughter.
Earlier, he spoke so confidently.
Saying, "I saw his strength clearly."
Now it seems he, Jin Shen, didn't see clearly at all.
This is normal, as he can't even identify Jade Pills, so how could he possibly see others' martial talent and potential?
