Chapter 266 -0262: No More Underestimation
"Chen Yu, come out, what you did to the students of the Devil Fire Academy, I shall return the favor right here!”
Luo Yongguang spoke provocatively, determined to wash away the disgrace that had befallen the students of the Devil Fire Academy.
Chen Yu chuckled lightly.
Previously, he had sensed Luo Yongguang’s hostility towards him, but he hadn’t understood the reason.
However, after learning his name, Chen Yu had guessed.
This Luo Yongguang must have been sent by Luo Haotian to deal with him.
The students of the Devil Fire Academy showed delight.
Although Luo Yongguang wasn’t a direct descendant of the Luo Family, he was still one of them, possessing the bloodline power of one of the ten Ancient Clans, making him extremely powerful in battle.
In this newcomer’s tournament, Luo Yongguang was the strongest contender from the Devil Fire Academy, with high hopes of making it into the top three.
"Chen Yu just fought two Innates consecutively and hasn’t rested long, now Luo Yongguang is challenging him again, Chen Yu probably doesn’t stand much of a chance!”
Others began discussing the likely outcome of this fight.
The challenged, unless they had just fought, must accept the challenge.
"If you lose to me as well, wouldn’t the reputation of the Devil Fire Academy be completely lost?”
Chen Yu revealed a playful smile.
"Isn’t that too arrogant? Does Chen Yu really have such confidence?”
"Luo Yongguang isn’t just any Innate, I think Chen Yu after defeating two Innates consecutively is overly confident.”
Many students, already familiar with Chen Yu’s arrogance, weren’t too surprised.
In the attic, several instructors couldn’t help but laugh, also thinking that Chen Yu was boasting.
"Ha, such arrogance, he underestimates the people from the ten Ancient Clans too much.”
Lv Ze, a short-haired youth from Yunyang Academy and also from one of the ten Ancient Clans, could not help but snort.
"Maybe he really can do it?”
Commandery Princess Ning smiled slightly.
Chen Yu had previously fought with members of the ten Ancient Clans, and at the gathering, he had defeated Luo Haotian of the Luo Family, though at that time Luo Haotian had concealed his cultivation at the postnatal peak.
But now, Chen Yu was no longer the same as before.
"Haha, do you think that kind of thing would happen?”
Luo Yongguang laughed loudly, but fire was already burning within him.
"Let’s just wait and see!”
Chen Yu leapt up, landing on the challenge platform.
At the same time, Luo Yongguang made his move.
Luo Yongguang dashed past several afterimages, appearing in front of Chen Yu in the blink of an eye.
His treasure saber immediately ignited with a menacing, eerie purple demonic fire.
Suddenly, a flash of purple light and a strange and dazzling Purple Demon Flame Slash descended.
Luo Yongguang made his killing move without hesitation.
Meanwhile, many students familiar with Luo Yongguang revealed a shocked expression.
Luo Yongguang now, compared to before, showed a vast difference in his combat skills comprehension and True Qi utilization, reaching profound levels.
It could be said that a few months without seeing him, Luo Yongguang had changed so much that they could hardly recognize him.
Chen Yu drew out his Xuan Heavy Sword and circulated his Evil Qi, swinging the sword fiercely.
The two collided in one strike, black wind and purple fire sweeping across the platform.
"This young man, his strength is indeed exceptional!”
Luo Yongguang’s treasure saber trembled slightly, and his palm went numb.
The slash he had just made, utilizing his combat skills, but Chen Yu had blocked it with just a single swing of his sword.
However, Luo Yongguang still wore a confident smile.
Suddenly, a layer of purple flames flared up around him, burning fiercely, and his treasure saber now shone with a brighter light.
His figure dashed out, attacking Chen Yu once again.
Luo Yongguang rapidly waved his treasure saber, unleashing swift Purple Flame Saber Slashes that densely bombarded Chen Yu.
"Luo Yongguang has actually cultivated the ‘Purple Flame Demon Light Slash’ to the Great Achievement Realm!”
"What terrifying power!”
The crowd couldn’t help but be alarmed.
If it were a regular Innate, they would probably be defeated by this move in a single encounter.
Chen Yu no longer held back, mobilizing his Evil Qi, and frantically swung the Xuan Heavy Sword, slashing out huge fan-like shadows of black evil wind.
The shadows of the black evil wind fiercely interwove with the Purple Flame Saber Slashes and tore each other apart.
"This young man, his Innate True Qi is so strong?”
Luo Yongguang’s expression darkened.
The treasure saber in Luo Yongguang’s hand suddenly disappeared, replaced by another long saber.
That long saber was golden all over, engraved with glazed purple patterns, emitting a suffocating golden purple saber light.
"High Grade Exquisite Treasure.”
Chen Yu’s gaze deepened.
High Grade Exquisite Treasure, typically beyond what a Qi Transformation Innate could afford.
Luo Yongguang roared, attacking again.
On the Glazed Treasure Saber, golden light spread everywhere, and a layer of fierce purple demonic fire suddenly flared up again, its menacing power intimidating.
With the High Grade Exquisite Treasure Saber in hand, Luo Yongguang once again executed his saber technique, enhancing his attack power to another level.
A saber slashed out, incredibly fast, the Purple Gold Blade Slash carrying tumultuous purple flames, its force formidable and coming straight at him.
Chen Yu, his body surrounded by black evil winds, suddenly darted to the side, avoiding the slash.
And his sprinting speed increased ever more.
Luo Yongguang, being from the Ancient Clan, indeed posed quite a challenge, his strength genuinely qualified him to aim for the top three.
At this moment, Chen Yu decided not to continue hiding his capabilities.
As Chen Yu ran rapidly, a black evil whirlwind hung over the whole challenge platform.
And Chen Yu’s figure split into three, surrounding Luo Yongguang.
"What kind of movement technique is this, to possess such might?”
Chen Yu’s movement speed and momentum astonished the spectators.
"Is it the second form of ‘Devilish Evil Frenzy Shadow’? Can this young man actually perform it?”
Black Star Master from Black Star Academy, a gleam flashed through his eyes.
This secret technique put a tremendous strain on the body, yet Chen Yu, who had just defeated two Innate fighters recently, was still able to use the second form of “Devilish Evil Frenzy Shadow,” which surprised him.
"This lad comprehended the second form a few months ago!”
Liu Xuanzong chuckled lightly.
By using the second form of “Devilish Evil Frenzy Shadow,” Chen Yu might defeat Luo Yongguang—the outcome of this battle was still undetermined.
On the challenge platform.
Chen Yu’s figure suddenly attacked Luo Yongguang.
Luo Yongguang slashed, dispersing the figure.
Luo Yongguang’s gaze slightly deepened.
At that moment, a second figure attacked.
The two collided; Luo Yongguang’s hands tingled, forcing him back two steps.
"Damn, this one is real!”
Luo Yongguang’s face darkened, annoyance flickering across it.
However, having encountered the real and fake figures twice, Luo Yongguang had begun to grasp the difference between them.
Chen Yu attacked again.
Luo Yongguang revealed a fierce expression.
A layer of white light spots surfaced on his body followed by a layer of bright white glow, resonating with the purple flame, enhancing its ferocity.
"Ancient Clan’s bloodline… Luo Yongguang is using his Bloodline Power so soon!”
The spectators couldn’t help but exclaim.
The speed of this battle was unexpectedly fast, with both sides using every trick at their disposal without mercy, causing many students’ hearts to tighten.
Luo Yongguang’s frenzied blade aura, carrying surging purple and white flames, charged fiercely.
This slash was potent enough to directly slay someone at the Early Innate stage and even those in the Innate Middle Stage dared not be careless.
"Luo Yongguang has such strength?”
Cao Zhongtian on the top Luo platform revealed a surprised expression.
In the previous competition for new students, Luo Yongguang had only placed in the top twenty.
But this time, the strength Luo Yongguang demonstrated qualified him to challenge him.
Great Success blade techniques, a High Grade Exquisite Treasure, combined with Luo Family bloodline, Luo Yongguang’s strength was enough to demand everyone’s respect.
"Humph, let’s end this then.”
Chen Yu hummed lowly.
The power Luo Yongguang unleashed at this moment was formidable, and he was somewhat struggling to dodge.
In that case, let’s just finish it.
On Chen Yu’s arm, a massive layer of Evil Qi condensed, resembling a demonic hand.
At the same time, a layer of blood-colored scale patterns emerged on his armor wrapped in black Evil Qi.
Instantly, an overpowering aura of an Ancient Beast True Dragon emanated from Chen Yu.
His heart pounded, boosting his strength dramatically with the addition of the Bloodline Power.
He threw a punch, where a dark, transformed giant python appeared, its body encased in a layer of dark red dragon scales, turning it fiercer.
Wherever the fist passed, all purple and white fires were torn apart by the red-scaled black python.
Seeing this scene, Luo Yongguang’s mouth hung open in disbelief.
He had thought his move would end the battle.
But his strongest strike had just been torn apart by Chen Yu!
A punch landed on Luo Yongguang’s chest, shredding his clothes to pieces, and Luo Yongguang was sent flying backwards.
"How is this possible? Luo Yongguang lost?”
Witnessing this, many spectating students exclaimed, unable to believe it.
Luo Yongguang, having deployed a High Grade Treasure and activated his Bloodline Power, should have held an absolute advantage. How could he lose?
The challenge platform was surrounded by black winds, and Luo Yongguang released his Bloodline Flame anew. With the combatants’ intense fighting, the mighty sounds made it difficult for many to discern the actual fight.
As for Chen Yu, who lightly used a touch of the Dragon Scale Bloodline’s power, it was even harder to detect.
In the attic, several instructors also looked shocked, clearly not anticipating this outcome.
In the distance, Luo Haotian’s expression was extraordinarily grim.
"This kid has grown to such an extent? Moreover, how can his stamina be so abundant?”
Luo Haotian was restless.
Chen Yu’s growth was too swift; he did not doubt that given a few more years, Chen Yu could catch up to him.
Meanwhile, Luo Yongguang also discovered a discrepancy.
The referee announced the result.
On the stone platform, Cao Zhongtian stared fixedly at Chen Yu.
He had been surprised by Luo Yongguang’s strength, yet Chen Yu had defeated Luo Yongguang!
That meant he had one more competitor to contend with for the top spot!
On the other side, Situ Lin Yu and Duan Hao looked seriously at Chen Yu.
"Interesting, interesting, another contender for first place,”
Situ Lin Yu smiled slightly.
At this moment, it was clear to everyone that Chen Yu could possibly contend for first place.
And the always arrogant Chen Yu certainly harbored the ambition to compete for it!
After Luo Yongguang’s challenge concluded, the competition continued, and it was soon Cao Zhongtian’s turn.
Cao Zhongtian’s gaze landed on Duan Hao, ranked third.
Now, aiming to secure first place, he faced three major competitors: Situ Lin Yu, Duan Hao, and Chen Yu.
Situ Lin Yu excelled in spiritual secret techniques, which Cao Zhongtian somewhat feared, and Chen Yu’s instantaneous defeat of Luo Haotian clearly set him apart.
Hence, Cao Zhongtian targeted Duan Hao.
By seriously injuring Duan Hao, he could eliminate one competitor, and his hope of winning the first position would be greater!
"Hmph, since he wants to give up the first place, I, Duan Hao, naturally accept it.”
Duan Hao coldly chuckled, leaping forward.
"Boy, always leave yourself a way out when you speak,”
Cao Zhongtian rasped a laugh.
On the challenge platform, the two stood facing each other from afar.
Around them, everyone’s attention was intensely focused on this battle, eagerly anticipating its outcome.
