Chapter 80 Invitation to Challenge
Chapter 80 Invitation to Challenge
Su Fan emerged victorious in the debate, and he couldn't help but wipe away non-existent cold sweat!
Good heavens, I only wanted to test this thing's quality. If it weren't for the fact that the content was about the Black Bird, and in terms of chapters and sentences, Su Fan would probably be no match for it.
In other words, the Xuan Bird that Su Fan found happened to be the subject of supernatural tales and strange beasts that Su Fan was more familiar with!
What kind of monster is this? How old is it? Could it really be trying to become a monster that integrates the three religions? To have studied the Book of Poetry to this extent, and that's just skimming it!
This is outrageous! They're all cheating, aren't they?! Chen Yang's martial arts are cheating, fine, but how old is Kong Shizhang?!
Su Fan mentally conversed with the Heavenly Dao: "Heavenly Dao, what's going on? Is this guy in front of me cheating too?!"
"The other party has hyperthymesia, which you can understand as having a photographic memory! And he just happens to be interested in these kinds of things, so he knows a little more about them! If needed, I can also cram a lot of knowledge into your mind!" The voice of the Heavenly Dao echoed in Su Fan's mind!
Su Fan naturally rejected this option, and asked with some curiosity, "Is the reason this guy can pass the judgment of the Boundless Light, have strong mental power, and have a photographic memory, because of his strong mental power?"
Su Fan realized that he had passed the test of [Boundless Light] entirely because he had consumed too many Emotional Crystals, which was a cheat code. His talent was already marked as passing the test. He was indeed a monster!
"You can understand it this way: there is no extraordinary power in this world. The so-called superior mental strength is just a matter of memory, comprehension, and quick thinking!" the Heavenly Dao explained.
……
"Little Kong! Don't be discouraged. Brother Su is very good at dealing with gods, ghosts, demons, and monsters. Don't be embarrassed if you lose to him. No one in our group can beat Brother Su in this regard!" Chen Yang was still comforting Kong Shizhang!
Kong Shizhang considered himself the greatest scholar in the world when it came to ancient classics and texts. He could even cite experts and professors as examples, and he believed that if he had been born in ancient times, he would have passed the imperial examinations with top honors!
It's understandable to feel disappointed when you get thrashed in your area of expertise!
Although Chen Yang didn't understand what Su Fan and Kong Shizhang were talking about, he could tell who won or lost from their expressions, so he naturally comforted his newly recruited underling!
"You're very capable. If it were about other parts of the Book of Songs, I might not be able to win the argument!" Su Fan said frankly.
Unfortunately, Kong Shizhang still wore a bitter expression, as if he had been bullied! Pitiful, helpless, and weak!
Su Fan had high hopes for Kong Shizhang, so Luo Jiuchuan activated his technique!
Luo Jiuchuan is back to lending money at exorbitant interest rates!
A colorful auspicious cloud appeared from high above, and on the cloud was a handsome young man who looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with a face as if carved by a knife and axe.
Su Fan's alias, Luo Jiuchuan, reappeared, and Luo Jiuchuan's flamboyant entrance quickly attracted the attention of everyone on Qingyu Island!
After all, apart from Su Fan, Jiang He, Wang Jianguo, and Chen Yang, this was the first time the rest of them had seen life from other islands!
After Luo Jiuchuan appeared, he nodded to Yingzhao as a greeting. He went straight to Kong Shizhang, waved his hand, and a contract appeared in front of Kong Shizhang.
"Come on! Sign a contract with me. If you have no objections, just sign it!" Luo Jiuchuan said.
Just like his first appearance, he was domineering and ignored everyone else!
Kong Shizhang was still confused and bewildered, but seeing Chen Yang's suggestive look, he didn't pay much attention to the details and agreed!
Luo Jiuchuan tossed an emotion gourd over and prepared to leave!
"Senior, please wait!" Chen Yang said.
Su Fan was curious about what kind of trouble Chen Yang was up to now, so he manipulated Luo Jiuchuan to turn around!
"Oh?" Luo Jiuchuan's voice was unreadable, only slightly drawn out, "You... has something else?"
Chen Yang felt as if his heart was being squeezed by an invisible hand, and he could hardly breathe. It was the suppression of life level brought about by the absolute difference in strength.
Chen Yang grinned, his characteristic sharpness and fearless arrogance shining through: "Yes! Senior Luo has been kind to us, and we have made some progress these past few days. Today, seeing your esteemed presence again, I am itching to learn more, and I dare to... ask you for some guidance!"
Su Fan was taken aback, but then he realized that Chen Yang had become arrogant after breaking through to the fifth level of martial arts.
As expected of the protagonist, Su Fan had no doubt that Chen Yang was probably thinking about the saying "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river" and "Never underestimate a young man's potential."
I will personally avenge the humiliation of the past, bit by bit!
Jiang He's expression changed slightly, and she said in a low voice, "Chen Yang, stop fooling around! Get out of here!" She knew Luo Jiuchuan's unfathomable depths, and Chen Yang's actions were no different from a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Wang Jianguo also gave Chen Yang a look, signaling him not to act rashly!
Even the newcomer Kong Shizhang was astonished. Although he had only been in the Mountain and Sea Realm for a short time, he could see that Luo Jiuchuan's status far exceeded his expectations. He was definitely a formidable person among formidable people. In his view, Chen Yang's actions were tantamount to... courting death.
"Give me some guidance?" Luo Jiuchuan repeated the two words, his gaze falling on Chen Yang. "A mere fifth-level martial artist, with only a rudimentary grasp of internal energy martial arts, dares to throw a punch at me?"
Chen Yang, however, didn't care at all, because he understood Luo Jiuchuan's strength better than anyone else.
He understood his companions' meaning, but his eyes burned with fighting spirit: "On the path of cultivation, the accomplished are the first! This junior knows his cultivation is shallow and unworthy of your attention, senior, but I only desire a battle, regardless of victory or defeat! Please, senior... grant my request! Let me know the gap between us, and be ashamed to rise again!"
Su Fan was also hesitant. If he wanted to maintain Luo Jiuchuan's high-class image, what if he accidentally shattered Chen Yang's Dao Heart? Su Fan still had high hopes for Chen Yang's future innovation in internal energy martial arts!
However, it would be unreasonable for him to appear too weak. After all, according to the setting, Luo Jiuchuan comes from the thirty-sixth island. It would be unreasonable for him to have trouble even against Chen Yang!
In the end, Su Fan made up his mind!
After he finished speaking, he didn't make any big movements. He simply extended his right index finger and gently pointed it downwards in Chen Yang's direction.
There was no earth-shattering momentum, no dazzling brilliance, and not even the thunderous force of Ying Zhao's actions!
But the moment that finger was pointed out, the space around Chen Yang seemed to freeze instantly! He felt as if he had fallen into an endless deep sea, with unimaginable pressure surging from all directions, trying to completely suppress and crush every inch of his bones, every muscle, and even his boiling fighting spirit and surging internal energy!
That's right, Su Fan directly used the power of the world!
Chen Yang went straight to the spawn point to respawn, and Luo Jiuchuan naturally left as well! Su Fan believed that this chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) wouldn't be defeated!
Chen Yang, who was resurrected in front of the spawn point, was naturally surrounded by a group of people. Chen Yang still had a lot of prestige among the people of Qingyu Island in China!
Fortunately, Chen Yang was not discouraged. After all, he had experienced even more humiliating things before! Instead, he became more determined to become stronger after learning from his shame!
Is Chen Yang some kind of stupid person who doesn't realize that he'll most likely be easily knocked out by Luo Jiuchuan?
Of course I know. Although Chen Yang has a bit of a chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), he's not stupid. He has that much knowledge!
So why did he still insist on challenging Luo Jiuchuan to a duel? It was certainly not without reason!
Because Chen Yang needed to guard against arrogance and impetuosity, he realized he had become a bit too complacent! After obtaining the Heavenly Abyss Battle Technique, his progress in internal energy martial arts was rapid!
He even created a guiding method. Chen Yang told himself that he must not be arrogant or complacent!
However, he couldn't help feeling proud inside, after all, Chen Yang had never seen anyone stronger or more talented than him in the field of internal energy martial arts!
Perhaps Sugawara no Michizane and Onmyoji Abe no Genji from Japan are no match for Chen Yang, and even the monsters that suddenly appeared on Zhenwu Peak are no match for Chen Yang, the True Martial Emperor!
Chen Yang could make excuses, such as these people were ancient beings, or even powerful beings who had existed for a very long time, so it was normal that he was inferior to them!
Chen Yang couldn't suppress his pride; the feeling of knowing something was wrong but still rising in his heart was inevitable.
So Chen Yang happened to run into Luo Jiuchuan, and without hesitation, he challenged him to a duel.
Firstly, there was the grudge of the insult from the other party, and secondly, Chen Yang hoped to use the other party as a whetstone to suppress his own arrogance!
It was indeed very effective. Chen Yang felt easily crushed by his opponent, and his heart became much calmer!
At the same time, he secretly categorized Luo Jiuchuan as the great demon king who bullied the protagonist in the early stages!
