Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 68 - Senior Sister, Are You Worried About Me?

Chen Changfeng’s defeat was unexpected; it left everyone surprised.

After all, he was at the peak of the eighth level and practiced the Netherworld White Bones Great Cultivation Technique, making him comparable to Qi Grandmasters. Among all the outer sect disciples, he was only inferior to Zhong Li.

Moreover, White Bone Hands had immense might, capable of flattening eight-level practitioners easily. And the Netherworld Ghost Claw could even pose a slight threat to Qi Grandmasters.

These skills had originally suppressed Chen Fan; astonishingly, he managed to advance his cultivation under such pressure, reaching the seventh level. This sudden surge in strength allowed him to overcome the suppression and defeat Chen Changfeng.

The speed and shock of this victory left the crowd dazed.

“You... how is that possible?”

Chen Changfeng, struggling not to vomit more blood below the stage, stared at Chen Fan in disbelief.

He couldn't fathom how he had lost so decisively when he had the advantage just moments ago.

Chen Fan looked at him and said, “Haha, I must thank you, Chen Changfeng. If not for your suppression, I wouldn’t have advanced to the seventh level so soon. You’re really a great, great guy!”

Unspoken was the fact that Chen Fan had refined and absorbed Chen Changfeng's Netherworld White Bone primeval qi—it would be a simply dumbfounding revelation.

“Pffft!” A stifled laughter escaped the lips of the onlookers.

Chen Changfeng could no longer hold it in and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Nice guy?

Me? A great guy?

These words made him die from vomiting blood.

After all, his powerful suppression had helped Chen Fan break his shackles and advance. Everything was his own doing.

“This... I’m about to die from laughter. Is this what they call seeking an edge only to wind up in a more unfavorable situation?”

“Let alone Chen Changfeng, even I want to vomit blood from laughter.”

“This guy, Chen Fan, it's one thing if he won, but he's also rubbing salt in Chen Changfeng's wounds and praising himself as a great person. It's so cruel.”

“......”

Various voices erupted, with everyone stifling their laughter as they pitied Chen Changfeng.

Chen Changfeng felt more agitated when he heard the crowd’s ridicule. He spat out another big mouthful of fresh blood and glared at Chen Fan. He roared indignantly, “Damn it...”

Shortly after, Chen Changfeng's eyes rolled back, and he unexpectedly fainted.

He fainted purely out of anger.

“Brother Zhong, this little bastard really is blessed with some dogshit luck.”

A short distance away, the Heaven’s Alliance members had gathered.

Zhong Li didn’t have to participate in the last battle round, as his opponent had admitted defeat without a fight.

After all, he was the only outer sect disciple with Qi Grandmaster cultivation. He was the undisputed number one. Who could possibly be a match for him?

Not only that, in this year’s Outer Sect Grand Competition, he never even lifted a finger. His opponents could only blame their luck and willingly forfeit their matches.

A cold light flashed in Zhong Li’s eyes as he said, “That trash Chen Changfeng’s cultivation is at the peak of the eighth level, and he practiced a powerful cultivation technique. Still, Chen Fan managed to turn the tables and defeat him. How pathetic.”

“But that’s alright. Chen Fan became one of the top 10 disciples and earned the qualifications to enter the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land. When the time comes, I will personally execute him. Let's see who will save him then!”

“Of course, we have no doubts about your strength, Brother Zhong. That little bastard running into you is like a rat running into a cat or a sheep running into a tiger. Death is the only outcome awaiting him. However, letting him jump around a little longer feels unpleasant.”

“The more he jumps around happily, the uglier his death will be,” Zhong Li said coldly.

His cold killing intent sent a chill down the Heaven’s Alliance members’ hearts. When they looked at Chen Fan, their eyes were smiling coldly.

Soon, the ten fighting arenas’ battles for the outer sect's top 10 disciples all ended.

This year’s top 10 outer sect disciples were Zhong Li, He Junyang, Bing Ye, Yang Feng, Lu Yun, Wei Rufeng, Mu Chen, Shangguan Ba, Qin Yao, and Chen Fan. [1]

What displeased the members of Heaven's Alliance was that, this year, only four of them were part of the top 10, not occupying half like usual. It betrayed the expectation they had at the start of the competition.

“Congratulations on becoming the top 10 disciples of the outer sect this year. Rest for the night and gather at the Outer Sect Main Hall tomorrow morning,” Su Yuntian told Chen Fan and the nine others.

With that, the Outer Sect Grand Competition officially came to a close.

......

The top 10 outer sect disciples gathered at the Outer Sect Main Hall in the early morning of the second day.

“Chen Fan...” said someone with a voice filled with resentment.

Chen Fan turned around and was surprised to see Chen Changfeng. “Why are you here, Chen Changfeng? Didn’t I eliminate you?”

“Hmph, hmph, why can’t I be here? I’m also one of the top 10 disciples!”

Chen Changfeng said coldly as he walked up, glaring fiercely at Chen Fan. “Just you wait. Things aren’t over between us!”

Qin Yao approached Chen Fan and whispered, “Chen Changfeng’s grandfather made some arrangements. Given his extremely high cultivation level, it would be a pity not to allow him to enter the inner sect. So, they purposely added him in.”

“However, one of the original top 10 disciples, Shangguan Ba, had to withdraw. Of course, Chen Changfeng’s grandfather gave him extremely great benefits in return. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have gotten the spot so easily.”

“I see.”

Chen Fan nodded.

Having a strong background was indeed useful. Despite being eliminated, Chen Changfeng could confidently stand by their side thanks to his connections.

“You have to be careful. This time, the Outer Sect Great Competition’s top 100 disciples will all be heavily rewarded. Chen Changfeng is already at the peak of the eighth level. After receiving his rewards, he will likely step into the Qi Grandmaster realm, significantly increasing his strength. So, he will make a move against you when we enter the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land,” Qin Yao reminded Chen Fan.

Chen Fan rubbed his nose, turned his head, and smiled at Qin Yao. “Senior Sister, are you worried about me?”

“I’m worried you might end up in hell.”

Qin Yao shot back coldly, then walked ahead with light steps.

A smile formed on the corners of Chen Fan's lips.

Perhaps his position in Qin Yao’s heart had changed.

He wasn’t worried about Chen Changfeng making a move in the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land, as he knew that Chen Changfeng would not be the only one getting stronger with time.

Furthermore, his main target wasn’t Chen Changfeng but Zhong Li.

Chen Changfeng and Zhong Li were on completely different levels.

Zhong Li was the true enemy, a very dangerous one.

“Excellent, Chen Fan. I didn't expect you to truly have no fear of death and become one of the top 10 disciples. Very good. But I wonder if you'll be so lucky in the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land.” Zhong Li’s group of four also came over, wearing cold smiles.

“Dragon Mountain Blessed Land, huh? Don’t worry, I won’t disappoint you. As for you, you better keep a close eye on your companions. Otherwise, you won't even know before you are all alone.” Chen Fan swept his gaze across He Junyang and the other two Heaven’s Alliance members.

Zhong Li wanted to kill him, and the Heaven’s Alliance members also wanted to kill him. So, why would Chen Fan spare any of them?

As expected, He Junyang and the others’ expressions changed when they heard Chen Fan’s blatant threat.

“Hmph, you won’t get the chance. The day we enter the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land is the day you will die. I’ll see how Qin Changkong can save you!”

A cold light flashed in Zhong Li’s eyes.

Chen Fan had threatened the Heaven’s Alliance members right before Zhong Li, utterly disregarding him.

“Hehe, that might not be true.”

Chen Fan smiled coldly and strode forth, walking ahead.

“Damn it, this wretched little bastard, he dares threaten us!”

The Jade-Faced Playboy, He Junyang, said hatefully, staring at Chen Fan’s back. He wanted to immediately make a move and sneak attack Chen Fan, killing him.

“Don’t worry, he can’t act like this for long.”

The killing intent in Zhong Li’s eyes seemed palpable, complementing his cold tone.

1. Most of these people were mentioned before in Ch 37. Only Shangguan Ba is first mentioned here. ?
