253: Chapter 253 Disgrace and Ruin

On the arena, Chen Yun stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at Gao Feng with a cruel smile full of killing intent on his face, 'After being struck by my Stagnant Qi Powder, you can actually still stand here as if nothing happened. However, your luck ends here. Today, on this arena, I am going to personally smash your cheap bones into pieces, inch by inch!'

His voice was filled with undisguised killing intent and resentment.

'Match start!'

The referee's voice had just fallen!

Chen Yun's figure instantly disappeared from where he stood!

He clearly wanted to end the fight quickly, not giving Gao Feng any chance to speak!

'Thunder Fire Palm!'

'Flying Sword technique!'

As soon as he started, he directly used his two major killing moves!

Visible on his right palm was a layer of crimson flames and purple electric arcs, striking down fiercely toward Gao Feng's head with earth-shattering power!

At the same time, a cyan Flying Sword transformed into a streak of light, carrying terrifying sharpness that tore through the air, silently circling behind Gao Feng to stab directly at his heart!

Attacking from both sides! Every move was lethal!

He intended to kill Gao Feng on the arena in a single blow!

'What vicious methods!'

The audience below the stage couldn't help but gasp when they saw this scene!

However, facing this desperate situation of certain death, there was not a trace of panic on Gao Feng's face.

A cold, mocking arc even appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Just as the Thunder Fire giant palm and the cyan Flying Sword were about to hit him!

His figure, like a ghost, moved sideways at an angle that completely defied common sense!

The Thunder Fire Palm, capable of splitting stones, and the incomparably sharp Flying Sword grazed his body dangerously and collided with a loud bang!

Boom!

A loud noise!

Violent energy exploded in the center of the arena, blasting a huge deep pit into the hard bluestone ground!

And Gao Feng had already appeared on the other side of the arena, unharmed, as if taking a leisurely stroll.

'What?!'

Chen Yun's pupils contracted sharply!

He could never have imagined that his sure-kill strike would be dodged by his opponent so easily!

How could this trash's speed and reaction become so fast?!

'Chen Yun, are you in such a hurry to kill me to silence me?'

Just at the moment Chen Yun was stunned, Gao Feng's calm and cold voice exploded like thunder throughout the entire martial arts field!

His voice, infused with vigorous Spiritual Qi, clearly reached everyone's ears!

'What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that the matter of you bribing the Pill Hall Menial Laborer to poison my body tempering pill will be exposed?!'

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar!

Everyone's gaze instantly focused on Chen Yun!

Poisoning?! Framing a fellow Disciple?! This is a major taboo in the Sect!

'You... you are spouting nonsense! Slandering me!'

Chen Yun's face turned pale instantly. He retorted sharply without thinking, and at the same time mobilized his Flying Sword again, slashing crazily at Gao Feng, trying to use attacks to interrupt Gao Feng's words!

'I am spouting nonsense?'

Gao Feng's figure dodged calmly amidst the dense sword light. His voice became even colder, 'A few days ago, I exchanged contribution points for two body tempering pills. After taking them, my Spiritual Qi backfired on the spot, my Meridians were severed, and I almost died from exploding! Fortunately, my life was big enough to survive. I would like to ask, who is so vicious that they dared to use the Sect's forbidden drug 'Stagnant Qi Powder' to harm a fellow Disciple?'

His voice was resonant and powerful, every word piercing the heart, every sentence a questioning accusation!

'And you, Chen Yun, are the mastermind behind this!'

'I have witnesses and physical evidence! Today, right here on this arena, I will expose your hypocritical and vicious true face in front of everyone!'

'Wang Li! Please come up to the stage!'

Following Gao Feng's shout, a figure walked out from the crowd, trembling slightly but with an extremely firm gaze. It was none other than Wang Li!

'Reporting to all Elders and fellow Senior Brothers!' Wang Li bowed deeply to the high platform, his voice filled with grief and indignation, 'This Disciple is willing to testify! Chen Yun has always been overbearing and bullying in the Inner Sect! The 'Concentration Grass' that I risked my life to pick in Gray Sparrow Valley was forcibly taken by him in public! Not only that, I have also seen him secretly and suspiciously contacting Li San, a Menial Laborer from the Pill Hall, many times!'

Wang Li's testimony was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves!

Following that, another Disciple, then another, stood up from the crowd, one after another accusing Chen Yun of his evil deeds of bullying and robbing them!

The entire martial arts field completely exploded!

The faces of the Elders on the high platform were already so gloomy that water could almost drip from them!

'Summon the Pill Hall Menial Laborer, Li San!'

A Law Enforcement Elder issued an angry roar!

Soon, Li San, who was pale and shaking like a sieve, was dragged up by two Law Enforcement Disciples.

Facing the Law Enforcement Elder's gaze, which was as sharp as a blade, and the countless angry gazes from below the stage, Li San's psychological defense collapsed instantly, and he confessed everything about how Chen Yun coerced and lured him into poisoning the pill!

The evidence is solid!

'Chen Yun!' The Law Enforcement Elder was trembling with anger, his voice like thunder, 'You are vicious and have harmed a fellow Disciple; your crimes are unforgivable! I now announce that your qualification for this small competition is canceled! You are punished to enter the Repentance Cave for three months of confinement! All your contribution points will be deducted!'

This verdict was like a bolt from the blue, shattering all of Chen Yun's pride and hope!

Reputation ruined! Future destroyed!

'No! It's not like that! It's him! He is the one who harmed me!'

Extreme humiliation and despair turned into crazy resentment. Chen Yun's eyes were bloodshot, and he let out a beast-like roar. He actually broke free from his restraints and launched a final sneak attack on Gao Feng!

'Gao Feng! I will kill you!'

'Presumptuous!'

Before he could get close, two Law Enforcement Disciples struck like lightning, and several Spiritual Qi shackles instantly bound him firmly and pressed him tightly to the ground.

The once arrogant Genius was now like a dead dog, dragged off the arena in endless humiliation and unwillingness.

After a brief shock, the referee finally announced the result.

'In this match, Chen Yun violated the rules and is disqualified! Gao Feng, wins!'

Gao Feng stood quietly on the arena, watching Chen Yun's embarrassed retreating figure, his eyes cold without a ripple.

This was just the beginning.

With Chen Yun's downfall, Gao Feng had no more rivals in the group stage, easily passed the subsequent matches, and finally successfully entered the top ten of the Inner Sect small competition!

He successfully obtained the qualification to enter the triple-Spiritual Qi Cultivation room, and his name once again resounded throughout the entire Inner Sect!

The moment Chen Yun's figure, like a stray dog, was dragged off the arena by the Law Enforcement Disciples, the entire martial arts field fell into a strange silence.

All gazes looked complexly at the young man standing in the center of the arena, his posture straight, his expression indifferent.

He won.

He won again in a way that no one expected.

He not only won the match, but also personally dragged an Inner Sect Genius with a deep background and powerful strength from the clouds into the mud!

This intelligence, these methods, and this strength made everyone present feel a deep, heartfelt dread!

From today on, the name Gao Feng will no longer just be a rising dark horse in the Inner Sect, but a ruthless character that no one dares to easily provoke!

The Elders on the high platform looked at Gao Feng with eyes full of appreciation and approval.

'This child has a resilient Heart-Nature, is courageous and resourceful, and is a talent worth molding.'

'That's right, not humble nor arrogant in the face of a strong enemy, and enduring and counterattacking in the face of framing, it is indeed rare.'

'It seems our Wuxiang Temple is going to have another Core Disciple.'

Gao Feng seemed to hear none of this.

He just walked off the arena calmly, and amidst countless gazes of awe, envy, and jealousy, collected his hard-won reward.

A jade token recording the qualification to enter the 'triple-Spiritual Qi Cultivation room'.

And a fragment of an ancient Cultivation Technique that emitted an archaic aura, of unknown type.

He did not stay outside for too long, politely declined the invitation from Wang Li and others, and walked straight toward the depths of the Inner Sect, the area that all Inner Sect Disciples dreamed of.

He wanted to seize this precious month to raise his strength to a whole new level again!

...

The triple-Spiritual Qi Cultivation room is located on the core node of the Inner Sect's Spiritual Vein.

It is a huge palace built of unknown jade, and inside the palace, it is divided into independent Cultivation secret rooms.

Gao Feng held the jade token and, under the guidance of the steward, came to a secret room that belonged to him.

The stone door slowly closed, completely isolating all the noise from the outside world.

Boom!

A pure Spiritual Qi, far more than three times denser than that in his Immortal Cave, rushed toward him like a tsunami, causing every pore in his body to open comfortably!

In the center of this dense Spiritual Qi, there was also a constantly rotating Spirit Gathering Formation composed of countless mysterious runes, which was continuously gathering the Spiritual Qi from heaven and earth here!

'So dense Spiritual Qi!'

He could feel that just breathing here was comparable to several hours of hard Cultivation outside!

He didn't waste any time, immediately sat cross-legged in the center of the Spirit Gathering Formation, and began to operate the 'Nine Revolutions Profound Body Art'.

However, just as he was preparing to take out the spiritual spring water from his portable space to assist in his Cultivation.

A bolder and even crazier idea flashed through his mind!

If... if the spiritual spring water were combined with the Spiritual Qi in this Cultivation room, which was already dense to the extreme, what kind of wonderful changes would occur?

Thinking of this, Gao Feng's heart was burning!

He no longer hesitated. With a thought, a cool, vibrant spiritual spring water slowly flowed out from his palm and merged into the high-speed rotating Spirit Gathering Formation!

Hum—!
