162: Chapter 162 He fooled me again!

"Damn it, he's too arrogant!"

"Yeah, I didn't expect this Lu Qingyun to be so wild!"

"I'd love to slap him to death!"

...The young people of the Ji Family stared at Lu Qingyun on the stage.

All of them were filled with righteous indignation and began to roar loudly.

"Everyone, shut up!"

Hearing this, Acting Patriarch Ji Guang immediately shouted.

"He is wild, and naturally, he has a reason to be. After all, he is the number one Prodigy of Qinghe Prefecture!"

Having said that, he changed his tone, "Of course, our Ji Family disciples are not weak either."

"Now, who will go up and take him down?"

"Patriarch, I'll go!"

Just as Acting Patriarch Ji Guang finished speaking, a young man in white could no longer restrain himself and suddenly lunged forward!

With a leap, he landed steadily on the arena stage!

He stood facing Lu Qingyun!

"Ji Wu, please advise!" The young man in white cupped his fists and gave a slight bow.

"Enough talk, let's begin!"

Lu Qingyun didn't even give him a direct look and spoke indifferently!

"Arrogant!"

Ji Wu was furious.

With a thought, the spiritual power within his body surged out like an overwhelming mountain wave.

Immediately after, he stomped his right foot hard on the ground and charged at Lu Qingyun like an arrow leaving a bow!

He was extremely fast, approaching in the blink of an eye!

Raising his right hand, he struck a fierce palm toward Lu Qingyun's head!

This palm strike was swift and rapid!

Ji Wu was clearly using his full strength.

It seemed he wanted to kill Lu Qingyun with a single blow under his palm.

Rumble...

A massive energy palm, like a mountain pressing down, carried a muffled, booming roar.

It fell straight toward Lu Qingyun's head.

Seeing this, Lu Dingtian's expression changed slightly, and he quickly shouted a warning, "Qingyun, be careful!"

Although he knew Lu Qingyun was very strong!

But his opponent was not weak either.

Moreover, the power of Ji Wu's palm had already reached the level of the Divine Transformation Realm Peak.

If Lu Qingyun was too careless, he might suffer a loss.

The crowd below also had their eyes fixed on Lu Qingyun, watching how he would respond.

Under the gaze of everyone!

Lu Qingyun remained calm, his expression unruffled!

Just as the giant energy palm was about to reach the top of his head,

Only then did he casually and lightly strike out with a palm of his own.

There was no world-shaking phenomenon, nor was there any sea-churning roar.

Just like that, an ordinary-looking palm swept across the air.

Boom!

Two massive energy palms suddenly collided in mid-air.

The energy palm sent out by Ji Wu collapsed instantly, as if it were made of paper!

But the blow Lu Qingyun had delivered so casually continued to sweep forward with undiminished momentum!

It struck Ji Wu like a bolt of lightning!

With a bang,

"Ah!" Ji Wu's body stiffened, and he let out a shrill scream!

He felt an unmatched, colossal force brutally pouring into his body.

In the next moment, he flew out like a cannonball and crashed heavily below the arena stage!

His limbs twitched, and he spat out blood repeatedly!

"Xiao Wu!"

Seeing this, Acting Patriarch Ji Guang couldn't help but exclaim!

He quickly leaped down, ran to Ji Wu's side, and helped him up from the ground.

Upon inspection, he discovered that countless Meridians throughout Ji Wu's body were broken.

His Dantian had also collapsed.

He had been completely reduced to a cripple.

"What a ruthless little beast, to strike such a cruel blow!" Acting Patriarch Ji Guang suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with deep resentment as he stared at Lu Qingyun on the stage!

"It's only his own fault for being too weak; he couldn't even take a single hit!" Hearing this, Lu Qingyun smiled disdainfully!

"You..." Acting Patriarch Ji Guang was fuming with rage!

"Enough talk, send the next person up!" Lu Qingyun said coldly.

"Little beast, you dare to cripple my Brother Wu? I'm going to kill you!"

Just then, a loud roar erupted from the crowd.

As the voice echoed, a tall figure leaped onto the arena stage!

This person's name was Ji Wen.

He was Ji Wu's younger cousin!

He had a very good relationship with Ji Wu.

Usually, the two were inseparable; though not biological brothers, they were closer than real ones.

"Little beast, die!"

As soon as Ji Wen stepped onto the stage, he immediately roared!

With a flick of his right hand, he pulled out a longsword of terrifying power and shot forward like lightning!

"Golden Peak Mountain Breaker!"

The longsword in Ji Wen's hand stabbed fiercely toward Lu Qingyun's heart.

"Overestimating yourself!"

Lu Qingyun didn't even look at Ji Wen directly; he simply raised his right hand and tapped lightly forward!

"Thunder Moving Nine Heavens!"

Rumble...

In the next moment!

Bolts of purple-black destructive lightning, as thick as thumbs, descended from the sky!

Like flowers scattered by celestial maidens, they struck heavily upon Ji Wen's head.

Crackle...

As the sky full of lightning descended, Ji Wen's body suddenly stiffened in mid-air.

He felt an intense pain in his Meridians.

The spiritual power throughout his body also instantly stagnated, leaving him with no power to resist at all.

Immediately after, he flew backward through the air like a kite with a broken string!

Finally, he crashed heavily below the arena stage.

His entire body was charred black, and black smoke billowed from him!

Blood gushed from his facial orifices; he struggled several times but could not stand up.

The entire venue fell into an instant silence!

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Their eyes widened in horror, staring in disbelief at the figure standing proudly on the stage!

The dignified Divine Transformation Realm Peak Ji Wen couldn't even withstand a single move from Lu Qingyun.

Both of them were at the Divine Transformation Realm Peak.

Yet the gap between them was like a vast chasm.

It was so large it was despair-inducing!

"I originally thought Lu Qingyun was just a hollow name, but seeing him today, I finally know what a truly successful youth and peerless Prodigy look like!"

"Yeah, both are at the Divine Transformation Realm Peak, but how can the gap between them be so huge?"

"Alas, someone as exceptionally talented as Lu Qingyun is born to shake the ages; Mortals like us can only look up to him!"

...

After a brief silence,

Soon, a wave of loud discussions erupted at the scene.

Everyone was awed and shocked by Lu Qingyun's powerful combat strength.

"Damn it, how can that Lu Qingyun be so strong?"

"Yeah, I thought even if I couldn't defeat him, I could at least last a few dozen rounds.

But now it seems I greatly underestimated him and overestimated myself!"

"Alas, Lu Qingyun is so formidable; what should we do next?"

...Seeing Lu Qingyun casually wound Ji Wen so severely, the Ji Family contestants below all had ashen faces.

Although they were extremely angry and unwilling, no one dared to make a move anymore!

After all, the warning examples were right there!

They asked themselves, and their combat strength was at most similar to Ji Wen and Ji Wu.

If they rashly stepped onto the stage, wouldn't they just be inviting humiliation?

"Qingyun, do you need a short break?"

At this time, Lu Dingtian looked up at Lu Qingyun and asked with concern.

"No need!" Lu Qingyun smiled faintly and said disdainfully, "Defeating those two doesn't even count as a warm-up. Why would I need a break?"

"Arrogant!"

"Outrageous!"

"Damn it, he's showing off again!"

...Hearing this, the people of the Ji Family were all fuming with rage.

Yet even so, still no one dared to take the initiative to step onto the stage.

"Haha, what? No one dares to come up?" Lu Qingyun's gaze swept over the Ji Family members below, and he laughed aloud!

"In that case, all of you come at me together!"

"What? You want to fight all the remaining members of the Ji Family?" Lu Dingtian was shocked to hear this!

He quickly shouted a warning, "Qingyun, don't be impulsive..."

"Haha, Patriarch, don't worry. They're just a bunch of nobodies; I can wipe them out with a wave of my hand!" Lu Qingyun interrupted him, sounding full of confidence!

"Alas, fine. Since you have confidence, I won't try to persuade you further!"

Lu Dingtian shook his head and said no more.

Judging by Lu Qingyun's previous record, even if he were to take on eight opponents at once, it shouldn't be a problem.

This way, he could take the opportunity to make the Ji Family lose all face.

Perhaps after this battle!

His Lu Family would be able to firmly suppress the Ji Family!

"Are you sure you want to challenge the remaining eight prodigies of my Ji Family all by yourself?" Acting Patriarch Ji Guang suddenly looked up and stared at Lu Qingyun on the stage!

"Haha, that's right!" Lu Qingyun nodded and said calmly, "Let them all come up!"

"Good, you said it!"

Acting Patriarch Ji Guang smiled coldly and raised his arm, shouting, "Everyone, go up together immediately and kill him!"

"Haha, good!"

"In a one-on-one, I might not be your match, but with so many of us working together, I don't believe we can't take you down!"

"Right, everyone go up together and join forces to suppress this madman!"

"Kill him!"

Instantly, figures leaped one after another onto the arena stage!

Acting Patriarch Ji Guang's gaze swept across, and he couldn't help but frown slightly!

Because he discovered that only seven people had stepped onto the stage!

Weren't there eight? Why was one missing?

Thinking of this, Acting Patriarch Ji Guang immediately began searching through the crowd!

Only then did he realize that Lin Feng had not yet stepped onto the stage!

He was standing there quietly, looking at the stage.

"This trash, he really is just wasting a spot!"

Acting Patriarch Ji Guang shook his head, "Alas, never mind. He's only at the Shenbian Realm Initial Stage; it doesn't matter if he goes up or not!"
