Chapter 216: Belated Challenge (1)

The violent airwaves swept in all directions with sharp sword energy. The surrounding people immediately fell back to avoid being accidentally injured.
...Looking at the surging waves in the center of the square and the sword energy shooting in all directions, Yang Zhongyi was speechless.
“The disciples of the upper house are indeed powerful!”
Su Nian nodded in agreement, his gaze fixed on the battle on the field.
The other disciples were also watching intently.
It was rare for the disciples of the upper house to fight.
Even if it was a disciple rank challenge, not everyone would challenge the upper house disciples every time.
Moreover, the battle was different from ordinary competitions. It was a true life-and-death battle!
If they could learn something from it, it would be a considerable gain for them.
In the crowd, Lin Shen watched with flickering eyes.
He was the calmest among the lower house disciples.
After all, he had already expected this to happen.
However, it was a little unexpected that the sect would suddenly attack three months later.
However, Lin Shen already had a vague idea of why this was the case.
After taking over the White Tiger Mountain Cave Abode, the Yan family issued a recruitment mission through the Nine Yang Academy that lasted for more than half a year.
During this period, a large number of disciples surged into the White Tiger Mountain.
If the sect wanted to exterminate the Yan family, they needed to figure out how to avoid implicating these disciples.
If they simply asked the disciples in the White Tiger Mountain to return, they might alert the enemy.
That was why the higher-ups of the sect had specially chosen the day or the rank challenge.
After all, on this day, all the disciples would return to the Nine Yang Academy. There was no need to worry that the Yan family would become suspicious.
However, Lin Shen vaguely felt that this might not be the only reason.
Three months was still a little too long. Many things could happen. The higher-ups of the sect should have thought about that.
With the temperament and actions of those high and mighty officials of the sect, would they be willing to delay the action and take the risk of being detected by the Yan family just for the safety of a group of disciples?
The answer was obviously debatable!
Lin Shen was more inclined toward the higher-ups of the sect having other considerations.
If he wanted it to sound like a conspiracy, he would guess they had delayed the action because they only wanted to take everything after the Yan family opened the underground spirit cave.
In this way, not only could they eliminate the traitors, but they could also obtain a completely open spirit cave, killing two birds with one stone!
“If that's the case, then the Yan family has been used by the sect, who will make sure that the Yan family has nothing left!”
Lin Shen clicked his tongue.
However, this was only a speculation.
Moreover, even if it was true, it had nothing to do with him.
He would only be happy about what happened to the Yan family's and wouldn't pity them at all.
While Lin Shen's thoughts were racing, the battle became even more fierce.
Both parties in the battle were at the Bright Aperture Stage and were good at using swords. As they clashed, the sound of swords rang incessantly. Sword energy attacked in all directions, and the temperature dropped. Occasionally, there were spells like Lightning Palm. It was qutie intimidating.
In just a short moment, the area within 500 meters of the battlefield had turned into ruins. The stone slabs were shattered, and everything was in a mess.
The spectating disciples fell back again and again until they were almost at the edge of the square.
Many disciples were secretly speechless. They were shocked by the strength of Yan Jingren and Jiang Hao.
The upper house disciples remained where they were, unaffected by the aftershocks of the battle.
Compared to the disciples of the lower house, they had a clearer view of the situation on the battlefield. Their expressions were solemn.
“From the looks of it, Yan Jingren has most likely broken through to the fifth level of the Bright Aperture Stage. Jiang Hao isn't his match!” Xie Jingsheng frowned.
Mu Chuanhua couldn't help but look surprised. “The spirit cave is that powerful? Yan Jingren was only at the third level half a year ago, but he broke through two levels in such a short time!”
The expressions of the other upper house disciples changed when they heard this, and they looked excited.
If they could also enter the spirit cave to cultivate, wouldn't their cultivation advance quickly like Yan Jingren?
BOOM!
A thunderous roar came from the arena!
Two blazing white lightning bolts were annihilated by the collision. As the air waves surged in the sky, Jiang Hao retreated seven to eight meters before he could stop himself. He looked at Yan Jingren in shock.
He never expected that Yan Jingren's cultivation level would increase so quickly in just a few months. He had also reached the fifth level of the Bright Aperture Stage!
Without a higher cultivation level, Jiang Hao no longer had the confidence to defeat Yan Jingren with just his martial techniques.
“Damn it!”
Jiang Hao's expression was gloomy.
He wanted to retreat, but he had just boasted that he wanted Yan Jingren to see how powerful he was. If he retreated like this, what prestige would he have in the academy in the future?
Thinking of this, Jiang Hao made up his mind.
“Forget it. If I can get three Golden Marrow Pills, it'll be enough to make up for my losses!”
The battle was urgent. After making up his mind, Jiang Hao no longer hesitated. He decisively took out a medicinal pill and swallowed it.
Xie Jingsheng and the others had sharp eyes. When they saw the pill that Jiang Hao had swallowed, they were surprised.
“Blazing Blood Pill!”
That spiritual essence wasn't divided into the Five Elements and Yin-Yang attributes.
Only when using martial techniques or spells would different attributes be displayed.
However, some special pills could allow spiritual essence to temporarily possess a certain attribute.
The Blazing Blood Pill was one of such special pills.
Half an hour after consuming the pill, the spiritual essence of the user would temporarily transform into Yang-type spiritual essence. The power of any Yang-type martial technique or spell would greatly increase!
In a life and death battle, if the timing was right, the pill could become a trump card that could turn the situation around!
