242: Chapter 242 Shen Xiyun VS Lu Chen!

Afterward, Lu Chen stayed temporarily at the New God Society.

Lu Xiaoyun was like a happy little bird, sticking by her brother's side, chattering away about what she had seen and heard in the Alien Monster World over the past three years, as well as interesting anecdotes from her time spent to Cultivate, as if she wanted to say everything she had accumulated over three years all at once.

Lu Chen listened patiently, occasionally mentioning some recent news about the Great Xia and their parents, which caused the little girl to gasp in surprise repeatedly, her beautiful eyes sparkling with brilliance, her adoration for her brother almost overflowing.

The heartwarming atmosphere of the siblings' reunion infected many people in the New God Society.

Half a month before Lu Xiaoyun's class transfer ceremony, Shen Xiyun found Lu Chen.

Inside the quiet room, the fragrance of tea curled in the air.

Shen Xiyun looked at the calm and composed Lu Chen opposite her, took a deep breath, and said, "Lu Chen, before you arrived, I was planning to participate in an extremely dangerous Gods Game. The difficulty of this Gods Game is fixed at the Hell level. I have participated twice and returned in failure both times; if not for my teacher's secret technique for avoiding death, I would have already perished within it."

She paused, looking at Lu Chen with burning eyes: "I need a powerful teammate, and you are the most suitable candidate I have ever seen, but I still need to test you."

Lu Chen took a sip of the blood tea, unique to the other world, in his cup; the taste was bitter with a strange aftertaste. He raised his eyes and said with understanding, "So, Big Boss Shen came here this time to confirm whether I have the qualifications to accompany you?"

"Correct!"

Shen Xiyun admitted frankly: "I know you are very strong, but the Hell Gods Game is no small matter. If you do not have matching strength, I will not invite you to participate. If you do, I hope you can go with me. I need the reward from that Gods Game!"

The scene shifted. New God Society. Eight-Star Battlefield.

This was a vast spatial battlefield independently carved out, similar to the Eight-Star Invading Secret Realm. The Rank of any class transferrer entering this battlefield would be forcibly suppressed to within Rank 8.

At this moment, the spectator stands at the edge of the battlefield were almost filled with the upper echelons of the New God Society.

The President, Esther Vera, also personally came to watch the battle.

Everyone wanted to see with their own eyes what kind of ability this young man, who was constantly on Lu Xiaoyun's lips, highly praised by Elder Shen, and even personally received by the President, truly possessed.

In the arena, Lu Chen and Shen Xiyun faced each other from a distance.

"Lu Chen, be careful!"

Shen Xiyun gave a clear shout. Knowing Lu Chen's bottom line, she dared not be the least bit arrogant, and went all out from the very first Move!

Hum! The majestic aura of Rank 8 erupted, and the power of space fluctuated violently.

She lifted her jade hand slightly, and a [Space Dimensional Slash] that spanned heaven and earth tore through the Void Realm, bringing with it a sharpness that could cut through all things, arriving in an instant!

At the same time, a crystalline [Space Barrier] appeared around her, protecting her firmly.

Facing this blow that was enough to severely injure any Rank 8 powerhouse, Lu Chen's eyes were calm, and he did not even Move a single step.

His thoughts stirred slightly. Roar! Howl! Screech—!

The Dragon roared, the Tiger howled, the Vermilion Bird cried, and the Black Tortoise bellowed! Nine massive figures, accompanied by powerful pressure, suddenly appeared behind him!

The nine main forces appeared together! Their appearance caused the space of the entire trial ground to freeze, and all the Big Bosses of the New God Society in the spectator stands changed color in unison, the sound of gasping cold air ringing out endlessly!

"This... this... four Legendary beast pets?"

"Isn't he an F-Rank Beast Tamer?"

The White Tiger roared, a silver-white stream of light flashed, and the tiger claw, carrying the power to tear through time and space, fiercely slapped toward that Space Dimensional Slash!

Crack! The spatial blade, capable of cutting through mountain ranges, was actually shattered by the White Tiger's single claw!

At the same time, the Vermilion Bird cried clearly, and the flames of the Void Abyss turned into a sea of fire, sweeping across. The Black Tortoise growled low, and the gravity field distorted space. The invisible dream power of the Six-Tailed Illusion Fox spread out...

Shen Xiyun's pupils shrank, and huge waves crashed in her heart! She knew that Lu Chen had contracted millions of beast pets, but she never expected that the nine beast pets he summoned casually now were so powerful! This was probably still him going easy!

"Space Domain—Activate!" "Innate Divine Favor Talent—Clear Void Pupil, Activate!"

Daring not to hold anything back anymore, Shen Xiyun directly used her trump card. Her eyes instantly turned silver-white, the spatial rules around her submitted, her skill cooldown time was significantly reduced, and her power skyrocketed!

"Great Spatial Disintegration!" Her legendary staff released massive spatial power, and countless fine black spatial cracks spread like a spiderweb, wanting to swallow and decompose his beast pets! This blow was already faintly comparable to the space-tearing ability of a Rank 9!

A trace of surprise finally flashed in Lu Chen's eyes. When Big Boss Shen went all out, her combat power was actually so formidable, almost on par with his normal state!

"Not bad strength." Lu Chen praised, then raised his hand.

"Infinite Beast Domain—Activate!" Hum! The spreading spatial cracks collided with Lu Chen's Domain, emitting a teeth-gritting friction sound, and were unable to advance even an inch!

"Eye of the Ringed Heavens!" The absolute insight Domain unfolded, and the energy flow and weak nodes in Shen Xiyun's Move were completely visible to him.

"Thunder Punishment World Destroyer!" The SSS-Rank Forbidden Spell appeared again, and the thunderstorm Domain covering half the battlefield descended with a roar. Endless thunder, carrying destructive true damage, struck down, colliding crazily with those spatial cracks, and the sound of energy annihilation explosions rang out endlessly.

Lu Chen didn't even use the ultimate effect of [Infinite Beast Domain]. Relying solely on the cooperation of his nine major beast pets and several Forbidden Spells, he fought Shen Xiyun, who was going all out and using her Divine Favor Talent, to a standstill, evenly matched!

Energy raged in the arena, beast pets roared, space vibrated violently, and the scene was like the end of the world.

The more Shen Xiyun fought, the more shocked she became. She had exhausted all her means, yet she could do absolutely nothing against Lu Chen! And he seemed to still have room to spare!

In the spectator stands, there was dead silence. Everyone was completely shocked by this battle that far exceeded their scope of understanding.

Esther Vera looked at the young figure in the arena who was controlling beast pets and wielding Forbidden Spells. Deep within her holy pupils, a trace of extremely complex and inexplicable light flashed. She whispered softly, as if speaking to the Elder beside her, or perhaps to herself: "Lu Xiaoyun's brother is also a peerless Prodigy! If this child grows to Rank 10, he will inevitably surpass us."

The fierce battle in the battlefield lasted for a full half day, and finally, the two stopped by tacit agreement.

Shen Xiyun was breathing slightly heavily, the shock in her beautiful eyes lingering for a long time. She looked at Lu Chen, whose breathing was still steady opposite her, and smiled bitterly: "That's enough. Even if I use my Divine Favor Talent and go all out, I still couldn't even force out your full strength... Lu Chen, what level has your strength reached now?"

Lu Chen put away his beast pets and smiled calmly: "Big Boss Shen is being too modest; your spatial attainments are the best I have ever seen in my life."

His evaluation of Shen Xiyun in his heart also increased by a level. Big Boss Shen's talent, Heart-Nature, and strength were all top-notch. This was also the reason why he had felt at ease entrusting Xiao Yun to her earlier.

After this battle, the last trace of doubt in Shen Xiyun's heart was completely dispelled, replaced by unprecedented confidence and anticipation. Lu Chen! Perhaps he could really help her clear that Gods Game!
