435: One against many

Hearing the young Martial Artists, Lan Cang frowned, then said in a deep voice, "To be one of the nine prodigies of the central continent, his strength is definitely not as simple as everyone sees. However, that Chu Huai is a member of the Nether Dragon Clan and also possesses the ability to fight above his Realm."

"And Chu Huai's Realm has already reached the eighth rank, eighth star. I wonder if Senior Brother Lu has the confidence to defeat him?"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "You kid certainly has some skill; your intelligence work is quite good. I've already fought with that Chu Huai. In a one-on-one, taking him down shouldn't be a problem."

Lan Cang said in a deep voice, "I naturally won't doubt what Senior Brother Lu says, but if you want the Junior Brothers to be convinced and willingly follow you into battle, please demonstrate your strength, Senior Brother Lu."

Lu Xingchen raised an eyebrow slightly and said indifferently, "Since that's the case, then all of you come at me together!"

Hearing this, the young Martial Artists by the bonfire were all stunned for a moment, then looked at Lu Xingchen with some indignation.

"Damn it, this Lu Dazhuang is too arrogant! He actually wants to fight all of us by himself? Including Senior Brother Lan Cang, we have 20 Martial Venerables and 34 Martial Ancestors. How can he possibly win?"

"Even that Chu Huai, facing all of us together, would probably only be able to flee in a sorry state, right?"

"He's showing off! Too much showing off! We are all Prodigies from the Nine Provinces, and we are also powerful experts who dominate our respective hometowns. How dare he look down on us like this?"

"Exactly, exactly! If he can really win, I'll eat this bonfire!"

Lan Cang also frowned and said in a deep voice, "Lu Dazhuang, I called you Senior Brother out of respect for your high prestige. Are you really putting on airs now?"

"You want us to attack together? Defeat me first!"

Lu Xingchen shook his head slightly and said indifferently, "How troublesome. I have to beat you up before I can fight them. If it weren't for my apprehension about Chu Huai's 'Savage Formation,' I wouldn't waste so many words with you. Lan Cang, go all out! Let's finish this quickly."

"Alright!"

Hearing this, the other young Martial Artists all spread their Dou Qi Wings and flew a hundred meters away.

They highly recognized Lan Cang's strength.

Because, to form this Alliance, more than half of those Martial Venerable Experts had been beaten by him and then submitted to him.

In the hearts of these people, Lan Cang's prestige far surpassed that of a Lu Dazhuang they had never met.

They moved away early, fearing being injured by the aftermath of the battle.

Lan Cang formed a hand seal, and purple electric arcs surged around him.

The originally clear sky suddenly became overcast with rolling thunderclouds. A huge lightning Hand Seal appeared in the sky, continuously accumulating power.

Lu Xingchen also raised an eyebrow slightly.

This Lan Cang has some tricks up his sleeve; he can actually draw upon the power of heavenly lightning. The power of this palm strike of his far exceeds that of an ordinary Five-Star Martial Venerable.

At the same time, Lu Xingchen also felt a sense of caution.

This Lan Cang wasn't even on the popularity rankings, yet he already possessed the strength of a Five-Star Martial Venerable, and his combat power was so high.

This was enough to show that Prodigies in the Nine Provinces were as numerous as cattle. Even many people without much fame might possess formidable strength.

He must not be careless when facing anyone.

Originally, Lu Xingchen had planned to stand with one hand behind his back, putting on a show.

Now it seemed that to avoid capsizing in a ditch, it was better to be a little serious!

"Sea-Flipping Seal!"

Lu Xingchen also formed a hand seal, and a blue Dou Qi Hand Seal condensed above his head.

Although the size of this Dou Qi Hand Seal was not as large as the lightning Hand Seal, the power contained within it was not weak at all; in fact, it could be said to be even stronger.

Feeling the powerful strength displayed by the two.

"Drawing upon the heavenly lightning, Senior Brother Lan Cang actually has such a trump card! He didn't use this move when he beat me up back then."

"Isn't that nonsense? What's your status, and what's Lu Dazhuang's status? Facing one of the nine prodigies of the central continent, going all out is the most basic respect."

"Both of these two have such strong combat power! The power of Senior Brother Lan Cang's palm strike is already enough to challenge a Six-Star Martial Venerable, but Lu Dazhuang is even more outrageous. How does the power on his blue Hand Seal feel even stronger than Senior Brother Lan Cang's?"

"Just watching from a distance, it's really hard to tell who will win. Who is stronger will have to be seen from the result of their clash."

Lan Cang confronted Lu Xingchen and said in a deep voice, "As expected of one of the nine prodigies of the central continent, you do have some skill. The power of your palm strike is already not weaker than the full-force strike of a Six-Star Martial Venerable."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "You flatter me. Your strength is also not weak; you've opened my eyes!"

Lan Cang said in a deep voice, "Actually, I really hope I lose, because with my combat power, I'm not enough to contend with Chu Huai. We need a strong expert, an unparalleled expert capable of shaking the entire mountain range."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "I'm already here; you don't need to wait anxiously anymore."

Lan Cang said in a deep voice, "Then let me witness the strength of the nine prodigies of the central continent!"

With that, he let out a low roar, and the lightning Hand Seal slammed down towards Lu Xingchen.

Lu Xingchen also didn't waste any words, likewise striking upwards.

The two Hand Seals collided, stirring up a spiritual energy storm.

Those watching the battle nearby had to condense Dou Qi Shields to block such a powerful storm.

Lu Xingchen and Lan Cang, who were at the center of the storm, remained motionless.

The two Hand Seals contended in the air, and the spiritual energy storm grew larger and larger.

Then, Lu Xingchen's Dou Qi Hand Seal shattered Lan Cang's lightning Hand Seal and then fiercely rushed into the thunderclouds.

With his strongest attack broken, Lan Cang suffered a backlash, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his Face turning pale.

Lu Xingchen, on the other hand, retracted his palm, stood with his hands behind his back, and chuckled, "Lan Cang, you lost!"

Lan Cang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, cupped his hands to Lu Xingchen, and said in a deep voice, "As expected of Senior Brother Lu, a casual move can shatter my ultimate technique!"

Lu Xingchen said indifferently, "Now can we discuss ganging up on Chu Huai?"

Lan Cang shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Not yet. My combat power is only comparable to an ordinary Six-Star Martial Venerable, and that Chu Huai is an eighth rank, eighth star member of the Nether Dragon Clan. Unless you can withstand our combined attack, I won't feel at ease entrusting the lives of these companions to you."

Lu Xingchen waved his hand and said indifferently, "How troublesome! Since that's the case, then all of you come at me together!"

"As you command!"

The young Martial Artists replied in unison.

Then they all flew towards Lu Xingchen, surrounding him, each displaying their ultimate techniques.

"Word Spirit, Dustless Land!"

Lu Xingchen let out a low roar, and a colorless barrier appeared around his body.

He still stood with his hands behind his back, quietly waiting for everyone to make their move.

Everyone's attacks came at different times, and powerful attacks slammed onto the colorless barrier, creating ripples.
