41: A clown, that's it?

Chapter 41: A Mere Clown, Is That All?

Although Hua Mengying was a very good choice, her identity and fame were far inferior to Fang Chen’s.

Moreover, he was afraid that if he defeated Hua Mengying, and Fang Chen appeared, things would go awry.

After all, his secret technique could only be used once a day.

Once he used the secret technique to defeat Hua Mengying, he would not be able to use it again, and then if he encountered Fang Chen, he would have no chance at all.

“Haha, it seems you are scared.”

“Although I am a follower of Your Highness, the Saint, I am not an unknown person!”

“To put it bluntly, in the vast Eastern God Domain, there are only a handful of Prodigies who can stand shoulder to shoulder with me.”

“If you can’t even defeat me, then it’s even more impossible to defeat Your Highness, the Saint!”

“Leaving aside other things, the former Snake Clan Holy Son was an unparalleled Prodigy, hailed as the Snake Clan’s top Prodigy in tens of thousands of years, but in the end, wasn’t he just a joke, suppressed and killed by the Saint!”

“Now that you’ve won first place in the Holy Land Competition, are you as outstanding as the Snake Clan Holy Son?”

Although Hua Mengying’s tone was gentle, her words were sharp and full of sarcasm.

She had seen many people like Xiao Yunting.

“Indeed, I think Celestial Maiden Hua makes sense!”

“Xiao Yunting, if you can’t even defeat Celestial Maiden Hua, you are not qualified to challenge Your Highness, the Saint!”

“Haha, you don’t even dare to fight Celestial Maiden Hua, what makes you think you can challenge Your Highness, the Saint?”

“That’s right, if you defeat Celestial Maiden Hua, according to Your Highness, the Saint’s character, he will definitely stand up for Celestial Maiden Hua, and naturally accept the challenge!”

At this moment, Dongfang You stepped forward and suddenly spoke.

He had been holding back a belly full of anger, and now that he found an opportunity, he would naturally vent it.

Didn’t you want to show off?

Didn’t you want to challenge Your Highness, the Saint?

I’ll fan the flames for you and send you to your death!

“Could it be that you think Celestial Maiden Hua is not worthy?”

Xu Zhuo, who had been silent, also spoke a sentence.

There was a hint of sarcasm in his words.

Xu Zhuo was a very steady person; he would only speak a few words unless he encountered a very disgusting person or situation.

It must be said that Xiao Yunting’s actions today disgusted him.

“Why choose to retreat now? This is the behavior of a coward!”

“I’ve never seen such an arrogant person, who even dares to belittle Celestial Maiden Hua!”

“That’s right, even Your Highness, the Saint, wouldn’t dare to belittle Celestial Maiden Hua like that, would he?”

“After all, Celestial Maiden Hua is the Saintess of Moonlight Hall, yet now she is so belittled by an ordinary Disciple.”

“Could it be that he had long guessed that Your Highness, the Saint, would not accept the challenge, which is why he spoke like that?”

“That’s right, what kind of status does Your Highness, the Saint, have? It’s impossible for him to lower his status to accept his challenge, which is why he was so arrogant!”

“If he had the confidence to defeat the Saint, then he would have even more confidence to defeat Hua Mengying, so why doesn’t he dare to accept the challenge?”

“This guy seems to be bluffing!”

Xiao Yunting’s choice to retreat and remain silent gave many Disciples an excuse to barrage him.

Mainly, his actions were too difficult to understand.

Hua Mengying was no ordinary person; in the Eastern God Domain, she was definitely a top-ranked Genius and Prodigy, and even in Cloud Heaven Holy Land, there were few who could compare to her.

If Xiao Yunting truly had this strength and confidence to defeat Fang Chen, he would not be afraid of Hua Mengying’s challenge at all.

“I think Celestial Maiden Hua’s idea is very good!”

“If you can defeat Celestial Maiden Hua, that will prove your strength, and then if you challenge the Saint, perhaps Your Highness, the Saint, will agree!”

“After all, just your performance in the Holy Land Competition is not enough to attract Your Highness, the Saint’s attention!”

Fifth Elder stepped forward to persuade him.

He also found Xiao Yunting’s approach somewhat unpalatable.

Winning first place in the Holy Land Competition made him this arrogant?

He just stood up and wanted to challenge Your Highness, the Saint.

Is Your Highness, the Saint, someone who can be challenged by just anyone?

And now, someone has stepped forward, whose strength and fame are both excellent, a Prodigy of the younger generation, yet you don’t dare to accept the challenge.

This made everyone feel that Xiao Yunting was bluffing.

So, you dared to do this because you were certain that Your Highness, the Saint, would not accept your challenge.

Seeing this, Xiao Yunting’s expression also darkened, and he could only grit his teeth and say, “Alright, I accept your challenge!”

As things stood, he had no choice but to agree.

If he didn’t agree, everything he had done just now would become a joke.

In the future, it would be even more impossible to challenge Fang Chen.

In this way, all his plans would fall through.

Let alone gaining the favor of the Elders, it was likely that these Elders would also dislike him greatly.

In the future, wanting to replace Fang Chen’s position as Saint would be even more of a pipe dream.

“Good!”

Fifth Elder nodded in satisfaction.

If this Xiao Yunting kept refusing to fight and dragged things out here, it would be a complete waste of time.

Soon, two figures appeared above the arena: Hua Mengying and Xiao Yunting.

“As per your request just now, I will compress my Realm to Divine Origin Realm third heaven, otherwise, if I don’t control my strength well, it wouldn’t be good if I smacked you to death with one palm.”

Hua Mengying said with a smile, “After all, doing so, I can’t give an explanation to Cloud Heaven Holy Land, and it will also cause trouble for Your Highness, the Saint!”

“Hmph!”

Xiao Yunting snorted and said nothing.

At this moment, his face was extremely grim; how could he not hear Hua Mengying’s mockery of him?

To even compress one’s Realm for a match, wouldn’t it be a laughingstock to tell others?

Which Prodigy doesn’t have their own pride?

Even if there’s a difference of a major Realm, they still have the confidence to defeat their opponent!

This is how a Prodigy should be.

No one has ever asked others to compress their Realm to fight them.

Of course, if the Realm difference is too great, they certainly wouldn’t choose to act.

After all, that would be seeking death!

“The match begins!”

Fifth Elder immediately gave the order!

All the Disciples’ gazes fell upon Hua Mengying and Xiao Yunting.

Hua Mengying extended her slender jade hand and directly formed a seal in the air.

A booming sound rang out!

An extremely terrifying Divine Soul power poured out, like a monstrous giant wave, carrying supreme might that shook the soul.

Hua Mengying directly used a Divine Soul attack technique!

This caught Xiao Yunting completely off guard.

Xiao Yunting unhesitatingly used his secret technique, and his Aura immediately surged, his strength directly increasing by five or six times.

However, facing Hua Mengying’s Divine Soul attack, which was like a raging storm, Xiao Yunting was like a small boat on the sea, about to be swallowed by the ocean at any moment.

In just an instant, the powerful Divine Soul attack penetrated Xiao Yunting’s Divine Soul defense, causing him to faint immediately.

Xiao Yunting in the sky fell directly, crashing onto the arena with a thud.

The sudden turn of events caught everyone by surprise.

It just started, and it’s already over?

Even Hua Mengying herself hadn’t expected such a result.

This Xiao Yunting was too fragile, wasn’t he?

She never thought that Xiao Yunting would be so easily defeated!

She didn’t expect this battle to end so quickly.

“A mere clown, how boring!”

Hua Mengying immediately lost interest, finding it very dull.

Seeing Xiao Yunting’s extremely conceited appearance, she thought he had some real skill, but it turned out to be just this?
