Chapter 42 He is Chu Han
This scene was truly shocking.
Chu Han stood there like a humanoid Vicious Beast, his entire body radiating a startling Evil Qi.
Some of the weaker individuals were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly, filled with horror.
Zhao Feiyu's Mad Lion and Lan Yu's Golden Giant Eagle were still illusory forms, but Chu Han was a living, breathing existence!
"How terrifying. Could he also be here for the Martial Artist certification?"
Some people even began to doubt if they were dreaming.
Of course, the most shocked person was Li Mengran.
She looked at Chu Han's figure and murmured while trembling incessantly, "Chu Han! Why is it Chu Han! How can it be Chu Han! Why is he so strong?"
This was the scene she least wanted to see, but Chu Han's invincible figure told her every moment that it was all real!
Even Lan Yu was vulnerable and paled in comparison before Chu Han.
Lan Yu was also horrified at this moment; he felt that Chu Han could take his life at any time.
It was a fear that reached deep into his Soul, making him unable to even think of resisting.
But in the next moment, Chu Han released his neck, and the Aura around his body dissipated along with it.
He returned to his previous harmless appearance.
This was the Martial Arts Association after all; Chu Han couldn't actually kill Lan Yu, even if he had a deep-seated hatred for the Blue Eagle Martial Arts Hall.
"Zhao Feiyu is my friend. This is a small lesson for you."
Chu Han's words were cold and indifferent.
But to Lan Yu's ears, it was a massive mockery.
This was something his pride simply could not accept, and his face instantly became distorted.
"Aaaaah! I'm going to kill you!"
Lan Yu completely lost his mind. Right now, he only wanted to kill Chu Han to wash away his shame and prove that he was the strongest!
"Overestimating yourself."
Chu Han sneered, a flash of killing intent appearing in his eyes as he prepared to strike.
If Lan Yu took the initiative to attack him, he would have a reason to carry out an even more ruthless counterattack.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, a majestic voice like a thunderclap instantly echoed throughout the Martial Arts Association hall.
Chu Han felt his body grow heavy as an invisible pressure weighed down on him.
As for Lan Yu, who was halfway through his charge, he was frozen in place as if grabbed by an invisible giant hand; the Yuan Qi around his body instantly collapsed, leaving him unable to move.
"An expert!"
Chu Han's heart tightened as he looked toward the source of the voice.
He saw an old man in black with graying hair at his temples walking over. The old man's eyes were like lightning; though he didn't use Yuan Qi, he radiated the Aura of a powerhouse.
This was the absolute suppression of a high-tier Martial Artist over a low-tier one, and he was also the strongest person Chu Han had ever seen!
"His strength definitely exceeds the 5th-rank; he's reached the 6th-rank!"
Chu Han marveled inwardly.
He had seen the strength of the Fourth-Tier Martial Artist Night Owl and didn't believe a 5th-rank Martial Artist could give him such immense pressure.
Only the 6th-rank would have such a massive gap.
"What do you think this place is? Is the Martial Arts Association a place for you to engage in private brawls?"
The old man walked into the crowd, his gaze sweeping over Chu Han and Lan Yu, his tone full of authority.
As the old man's voice fell, over a dozen Martial Artists in black uniforms walked quickly from both sides of the hall. The Aura they radiated was at least at the 3rd-rank, and the leading captain had even reached the 4th-rank!
This group of Martial Artists had serious expressions and majestic demeanors; they were the Defense Team of the Martial Artist Association!
"Anyone else who dares to cause trouble will be thrown out and have their certification eligibility permanently revoked!"
The old man spoke while sweeping his gaze over Chu Han, Zhao Feiyu, Lan Yu, Lei Meng, and the others as a silent warning.
The other Martial Artists who had come for the assessment were now like frightened kittens, not even daring to breathe loudly.
They also had grievances they couldn't voice and felt very wronged.
Unlike these favored children of heaven, whether they could even pass the assessment was a question.
How would they dare to cause trouble here?
If they had been the ones causing trouble, they probably would have been thrown out long ago.
But Chu Han and the others were different; they were all geniuses of Jiang City.
Geniuses naturally had privileges. Even if they caused trouble, it would only be a verbal warning and wouldn't lead to actual punishment.
After all, the future of Jiang City relied on them.
Everyone understood this in their hearts.
The old man looked at the now quiet crowd and nodded in satisfaction.
His gaze lingered on Chu Han for a moment longer.
"Truly a Prodigy."
Contrary to his stern exterior, stormy waves were already surging in the old man's heart.
He was the Vice President of the Jiang City Martial Arts Association and had known about Chu Han's situation for a long time.
Seeing him in person now, along with the scene of Chu Han tearing apart the Golden Giant Eagle just moments ago, deeply shocked him.
He was indeed a Genius that even the President paid special attention to.
The old man looked away and then said to everyone, "The assessment entry is about to begin. Everyone line up and do not crowd or push!"
The crowd immediately lined up obediently, and no one dared to do anything out of line.
Chu Han and Zhao Feiyu lined up one after another at the end of a queue. The examinees standing in front of them very deliberately kept a distance from the two of them.
"Brother Han, thanks. I didn't expect my business to get you involved too. That Lan Yu will definitely hold a grudge against you."
Zhao Feiyu said somewhat apologetically.
Chu Han smiled and said, "This has nothing to do with you. I do indeed have a deep conflict with the Blue Eagle Martial Arts Hall."
"The Blue Eagle Martial Arts Hall has quite a lot of influence in Jiang City."
"I know, but if he dares to come looking for trouble again, I'm not afraid. Let's finish the certification first and not let these things affect us."
"Yeah."
On the other side, after Lan Yu returned to his team, he maintained a gloomy expression throughout.
Even when Li Mengran came over to comfort him, he snapped at her.
The more Lan Yu thought about it, the angrier he got. He looked at Lei Meng behind him and asked, "Brother Lei, do you know what this guy's background is?"
"I don't know where such a fierce guy popped up from either." Lei Meng's face was also very unsightly; first, he was humiliated by Zhao Feiyu, and just now he was almost dragged down by Lan Yu.
"I know. He is Chu Han."
At this time, Li Mengran answered from the side.
"Chu Han? That Chu Han from Third Middle School? I heard he didn't have an Awakening talent and became a waste?" Lei Meng was startled when he heard the name.
Chu Han was very famous back then, and his potential was even higher than Zhao Feifei's, so they in First Middle School had heard of him too.
"Chu Han? I've heard this name too. His current strength is at least at the peak of the second rank. How could he have no talent?"
Lan Yu was from Second Middle School and naturally had heard of Chu Han as well; he was also somewhat unable to believe it.
"He must have used forbidden drugs, which is why he was expelled from school. I didn't expect him to get mixed up with Zhao Feiyu; he probably got even stronger potions from Zhao Feiyu."
Li Mengran said, adding fuel to the fire.
"I actually lost to a cheating waste!?"
Hearing this, Lan Yu became even more furious, clenching his fists so hard his knuckles cracked.
"Chu Han, I will definitely pay back today's humiliation many times over!"
Lan Yu vowed secretly in his heart.
The Martial Artist certification began, and everyone participating in the certification passed through the testing equipment one after another.
Soon, some people whose qualifications did not meet the standard were filtered out.
Chu Han and Zhao Feiyu naturally passed the verification easily and arrived at the actual assessment hall.
The people lined up in front then entered the assessment rooms one after another to begin the real test.
