24: Is it so difficult to acknowledge the strength of others?

With every punch Chu Ying landed, the hearts of the Cultivators watching would tremble.

Fierce and wild!

This was undoubtedly the best description for Chu Ying, the number one Quasi-Saint Child.

“Archaic Holy Body, nothing more than this.” Chu Ying’s mocking voice reached Ye Junfan’s ears, making him even more furious, but he no longer had the strength to make a desperate comeback.

He had already used the Eight Heavenly Dragons, what else did he have?

“Do you concede?” Chu Ying stepped on Ye Junfan’s chest, looking down at him from above.

A dangerous glint appeared in his indifferent eyes, Chu Ying’s gaze filled with deep disdain.

Ye Junfan clenched his fists, but he couldn't break free at all. He gritted his teeth and once again activated the Myriad Manifestations Mother Qi Cauldron, which hadn't been fully refined yet.

The Myriad Manifestations Mother Qi Cauldron once again rushed out from his Divine Sea.

“Will repeating the same trick work?” Chu Ying sneered, “Since the will of the Archaic Holy Body is so tenacious, then I must go all out to show respect.”

Chu Ying slapped away the broken cauldron, grabbed one of Ye Junfan’s arms, and immediately crippled it on the spot.

“Ah!”

Ye Junfan’s heart-wrenching scream rang out, the intense tearing pain made his eyes bloodshot.

This made the crowd on Wu Dou Peak’s eyelids twitch wildly.

Did Chu Ying really dare to cripple Ye Junfan?

“Presumptuous! During a normal martial arts competition, to be so vicious and cruel, aren’t you going to stop?” Yao Ruoxi coldly shouted, finally unable to hold back from acting.

A powerful aura emanated from Yao Ruoxi, suppressing all the Disciples present.

“Holy Daughter, no!” Elder Lu Lin, as the referee, went up at just the right moment, intending to stop Yao Ruoxi.

Yao Ruoxi’s eyes flickered slightly, and she struck Elder Lu Lin with a palm. Elder Lu Lin, however, did not exert any force, allowing the palm to land, and was coincidentally sent flying backward.

Clearly, this was an act. As the referee of the Grand Competition, he could not break the rules he was enforcing.

But the Holy Daughter could!

No sooner said than done.

Yao Ruoxi immediately struck Chu Ying on the arena with a palm, a terrifying airflow coiling around her slender hand.

After becoming the Supreme Mystery Holy Daughter, Yao Ruoxi received extensive cultivation, and her cultivation had reached the ninth level of the Cave Heaven Realm, with her first Cave Heaven having long condensed nine Great Dharma Idols.

But she was not in a hurry to step into the Soul Palace Realm, because she also wanted to strive for the Seven Cave Heavens!

Those with Seven Cave Heavens were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. Looking at the various Holy Lands, almost all individuals who reached the Saint Lord Realm had, without exception, achieved Seven Cave Heavens, with only a very small number of Six Cave Heaven practitioners stepping into the Saint Lord Realm through other fortuitous encounters.

Therefore, the number of Seven Cave Heavens was almost a sign of the potential to step into the Saint Lord Realm!

Facing Yao Ruoxi’s attack, a cold glint flashed in the depths of Chu Ying’s eyes.

“I originally considered some affection, after all, you can be heartless, but I, Chu Ying, cannot be unrighteous.”

“Heh, if that’s the case…”

Chu Ying’s mind moved:

Add side effect designated targets: Yao Ruoxi!

[Side Effect Designated Targets]: Yao Ruoxi, Ye Junfan, Su Yichen, Xiao Yan

[Number of Side Effect Targets]: 4 (Current limit is 5)

Gluttonous Treasure Technique!

Dragon Subduing Tiger Taming Skill! Seven Emotions Disturbing Desire Fist!

Chu Ying stepped on Ye Junfan, using his body to leap up and punch towards Yao Ruoxi’s palm.

It was precisely at the moment Chu Ying threw his punch that Yao Ruoxi’s internal organs inexplicably trembled violently, and a mouthful of fresh blood welled up in her throat.

She let out a muffled groan, suppressing the blood.

This scene was very brief, and no one noticed it, but the corner of Chu Ying’s mouth curved into a cold, sharp arc.

Boom!

With the Gluttonous Treasure Technique empowering him, Chu Ying was not afraid of Yao Ruoxi at all!

No matter how strong an attack you unleash, I will absorb it all and return it to you!

As for backlash? Sorry, you take it for me!

The fist print and palm wind collided in the air, disintegrating and dissipating. Yao Ruoxi’s graceful body in mid-air swayed gently.

Chu Ying landed steadily on the arena, his figure proudly upright.

At this moment.

The entire venue was silent.

The beautiful Quasi-Holy Daughters’ mouths were all agape in an “o” shape, making one want to put something in them.

They were already disheveled in the wind.

“Yao Ruoxi has long been unfathomable, yet Chu Ying can withstand her palm strike?”

The number one Quasi-Holy Daughter, Luo Ruyan, her beautiful eyes flashed with clear light.

“Chu Ying probably already possesses the true strength to become a Saint Child…”

The number two Quasi-Holy Daughter, Lu Hongyi, her eyes dim and unclear, murmured softly.

“How interesting, how interesting, someone as strong as you would also be abandoned by the Holy Daughter?”

The number seven Quasi-Holy Daughter, Lin Zhixue, thought of another point, and her smile suddenly became a little strange.

Looking at the reactions of the Quasi-Saint Children, all were dumbfounded.

“Pfft!”

Fear emerged in Su Yichen’s heart. Chu Ying could actually withstand a move from the Holy Daughter? Was Chu Ying really strong enough to sweep all the Quasi-Saint Children?

As he was thinking, his internal organs violently churned, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, “Pfft, ah, damn it!”

Su Yichen cursed in his heart, but he bled even more severely.

Xiao Yan was in the exact same situation as him.

Both of them felt inexplicably strange, how did they get injured out of nowhere again?

“Is the Holy Daughter trying to break the rules of the Quasi-Saint Child Grand Competition?”

Chu Ying’s expression was cold.

As his voice fell, he grabbed Ye Junfan, who had recovered a bit of consciousness on the ground, and also subtly glanced at Yao Ruoxi.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of furious pounding like a sandbag, accompanied by the cracking of bones, was so clear on Wu Dou Peak at this moment.

Yao Ruoxi, due to the sudden situation within her body just now, was momentarily surprised and uncertain, and did not continue to attack.

“Where did my injuries come from?”

Yao Ruoxi’s delicate brows furrowed. She looked inward and found broken traces in many of her Meridians, and at the same time, her internal organs seemed to have been impacted by some overly fierce and domineering force.

“Pfft!”

At this moment, Ye Junfan already felt intense pain all over his body, making him unable to distinguish whether it was from his injuries or from being beaten.

Crack!

Chu Ying was truly ruthless, crippling all of Ye Junfan’s four limbs in one go.

“Archaic Holy Body, do you concede?” Chu Ying’s light voice floated out.

Elder Lu Lin had long been unable to resist speaking. He loudly shouted:

“Ye Junfan, defeat is defeat. If your skills are inferior, can’t you even concede?”

Elder Lu Lin was afraid something would happen to Ye Junfan, but Chu Ying’s actions were all within the rules, so he couldn’t intervene.

He could only remind Ye Junfan in this way that when it was time to concede, he should concede!

But who knew the grievance in Ye Junfan’s heart?

His bloodied face was twisted with fury and unwillingness. If not for a strange cultivation mishap a few days ago, he would have also entered the Cave Heaven Realm!

If he had entered the Cave Heaven Realm, how could he have lost this battle?!

At this moment, the tide of opinion below the stage had completely turned, mainly from the Quasi-Holy Daughter’s side.

“Is this the Archaic Holy Body? His pride is too high. Being beaten like this and still unable to concede, this isn’t tenacity, it’s foolishness!”

“Is it really that hard to admit someone else’s strength? Who is he putting on this show for?”

“Not daring to face failure is undoubtedly a lack of self-trust. How much achievement can such a person have in the future?”

Sarcasm, disdain, and mockery continuously rang out.

Ye Junfan watched Chu Ying walk towards him step by step.

His expression was ferocious and enraged, yet mixed with fear. He wasn’t afraid, but in pain!

Pain both physically and mentally!

Today was the greatest setback and greatest humiliation he had encountered since he began cultivating!

When Chu Ying was already close to him.

He couldn't help but brace himself with his hands, dragging his body backward.

He seemed to have understood something, and with unknown strength, he suddenly stood up.

“Chu Ying! The humiliation you brought me today, I, Ye Junfan, will surely return a hundredfold, a thousandfold, in the future!”

Ye Junfan raised a finger and roared at Chu Ying.

Chu Ying narrowed his eyes, ready to go up and give him another combo.

“I, concede!”

But Ye Junfan immediately roared out with red eyes.

The whole place was in an uproar.
