Chapter 61 Shocks the Entire School
Chapter 61 Shocks the Entire School
boom!
The arena trembled, and Zhang Zuo transformed into a streak of red sword light, shooting out with extreme speed, power, and penetrating force.
If you can't dodge this sword, then don't dodge it!
Chen Zheng's internal energy circulated throughout his body, his spine undulated like a great dragon, and all his power converged, transforming him into a black blade of light that slashed out.
Shattered Star!
Just as the sword and blade were about to collide, a dark light flashed in Chen Zheng's eyes, and a terrifying aura emanated from him.
Roar! A violent roar exploded in Zhang Zuo's mind, his soul trembled under the invisible power of fear, and the sword light slowed down by half a beat.
boom!
The Black Cloud Blade cleaved the sword's edge from the side, like two giant beasts colliding and producing a deafening roar. In the instant the sword light exploded, the blade light followed suit and slashed down.
Boom! Zhang Zuo's figure exploded into a speck of light.
At this moment, the number of viewers in the challenge room had reached more than 5,000, but when they saw this scene, they all fell silent for a moment, and then exploded.
"Was it a fixed match? Zhang Zuo actually lost?"
"He's a martial arts student. Leaving aside the speed and subsequent swordplay changes of that final, deadly attack, the sheer force alone exceeded four thousand kilograms!"
"Holy crap, Chen Zheng is amazing, he's already won 23 straight tonight."
"What's so amazing about a 23-game winning streak? The real issue is that he's only level nine, yet he managed to defeat Zhang Zuo, who was at level thirteen in the Qi and Blood Realm, a difference of four minor levels."
"Especially that last move, the blood and qi killing move, shows that Zhang Zuo's swordsmanship has also reached the pinnacle of the second level."
"It's really exaggerated. Although Zhang Zuo is at the bottom of the martial arts department, he is still a genius among his peers."
Because of the excitement, thousands of comments flooded the screen like a waterfall, and many people couldn't even keep up with all the messages.
"Holy crap, Chen Zheng actually won!!" In the dormitory, Jiang Mo's mouth dropped open, his face filled with disbelief.
Nearby, the class group of Rune Class 9, projected on Li Tang's personal terminal, was also discussing this battle, with Xu Hui and Zhou Zhi excitedly sending messages one after another.
Meanwhile, the number of people challenging the room is increasing wildly, reaching seven thousand, eight thousand, all wanting to see if Chen Zheng will continue to challenge.
But then Chen Zheng suddenly sheathed his long sword, his figure disappeared, and he did not continue the challenge.
Zhang Zuo is very strong, with a basic punching power estimated at around 2,000 kilograms. He has mastered top-level combat and sword techniques, and his qi and blood are enhanced. In the brief exchange, Chen Zheng was able to hold his own because of the even stronger burst of power after the Nine Turns of the Meridian.
If he hadn't been intimidated by fear and avoided the strongest point of the sword tip, he might have been injured by the power of the second-level killing move of a top-tier sword technique.
2900 is about his current limit.
Although Chen Zheng left, many comments still flooded the room, and some people who had been recording started replaying the battle, slowing it down tenfold.
"Look, Zhang Zuo didn't hold back. His swordsmanship is fierce, and every move is aimed at Chen Zheng's vital points."
"But is this Chen Zheng really a level nine martial artist? He actually withstood every single attack head-on!"
"Strange, why did Zhang Zuo pause for a moment during the last sword strike?"
Just then, a comment appeared on the screen: "He grasped a certain artistic conception. In the last move, my mind was taken over, which is why I lost."
"The true meaning of martial arts?"
"Really?! He's only at level nine, yet he's already grasped the true essence of martial arts!"
The chat exploded again, and the battle quickly became a trending topic on campus.
[A freshman in the Rune Department, ranked first in the Liberal Arts Trial, achieving a 23-game winning streak in the Battle Power Ranking Challenge]
[A ninth-level liberal arts student in the Body Refinement Realm defeated a thirteenth-level martial arts student in the Qi and Blood Realm, breaking the historical record of Jiangzhou University.]
Breaking news! Chen Zheng, the rune-wielding expert, has grasped the true essence of martial arts!
[Chen Zheng's personal rune enlightenment insights, available for download for only 2000. Rune enthusiasts, don't miss it!]
It was already midnight, but the entire school network was bustling with activity due to the virtual world upgrade, and these headlines immediately attracted a lot of attention.
Beep beep! Su Wan's personal terminal vibrated.
Chu Ya: "See that, Wanwan? I told you his first place in the humanities exam was just the beginning."
Lying on the bed, Su Wan, who was browsing the internet, also saw those pinned posts. After a moment of silence, she replied: "...It's a good thing I didn't bet with you, otherwise I would have lost again."
"However, this Chen Zheng is truly astonishing. He had two sudden enlightenments, mastered top-level combat techniques within a few days, and unexpectedly even grasped the true meaning of martial arts."
"With such martial arts talent, he actually went to study runes?!"
Chu Ya: "Because he was only at level three when he graduated from high school, he couldn't get into a regular martial arts university and could only be a liberal arts student."
"That's the most surprising part. What made him, a level four martial artist, suddenly rise to prominence?" Su Wan asked, her eyes filled with curiosity.
At this moment, Chu Ya suddenly said, "By the way, Brother Chen and Bai Su seem to be in the same class, and I heard they are also members of the same rune research group, and they have a good relationship."
"She contributed a lot to Brother Chen's first place in the liberal arts exam this time, and her improved swordsmanship might also be related to him."
"After all, their family possesses many ancient rune stones, each with amazing effects."
"Bai Su, that annoying guy." Su Wan's eyes narrowed.
In the cultivation room, Chen Ye watched Chu Ya chatting with Su Wan via voice. After she finished speaking, he hesitated and said, "...Xiao Ya, is it okay for you to arouse her curiosity about my brother like this?"
Chu Ya smiled and said, "It's not that I want to arouse Wanwan's curiosity about Brother Chen, it's because of Bai Su. She will definitely notice Brother Chen because of Bai Su's existence."
Chen Ye asked, somewhat puzzled, "Does Bai Su have a grudge against your cousin?"
"A deep grudge, the kind that can never be resolved in a lifetime." Chu Ya's gaze became strange as she said this, a mixture of admiration and amusement.
"Don't worry, Chen Ye, I won't cause Brother Chen any trouble. On the contrary, if Wanwan really goes after Brother Chen, or even catches up with him, it will be of great benefit to both of them."
"As for what if Wanwan really falls for Brother Chen, won't you still be under pressure from Qian Jin?"
"...Qian Jin?" Chen Ye nodded slowly, his eyes filled with strong confidence. "Once I complete my breakthrough in this seclusion, I really won't need to be afraid of him anymore."
In the luxurious room, three young men were drinking and chatting when one of them suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Qian Jin, quickly check the school's trending topics! There's some big news!"
Sitting opposite him, Chen Daoyi asked curiously, "What's wrong?"
"A new student from the Rune Department challenged the combat power rankings, achieved a 23-game winning streak, and defeated Zhang Zuo from our class with a level nine cultivation, breaking into the top 3,000."
Chen Daoyi was somewhat moved: "A liberal arts student at level nine defeated a Qi and Blood Realm expert from our class!"
A young man with a strand of golden hair on his forehead leaned back on the sofa, a disdainful look on his face: "Trash, you can't even beat a level nine martial artist."
Zhou Fan swiped the projector: "It is said that the liberal arts student comprehended some kind of martial arts essence, which is why he was able to defeat Zhang Zuo."
"By the way, that person's name is Chen Zheng, he's Chen Ye's older brother."
"Chen Ye." Qian Jin narrowed his eyes slightly.
Chen Daoyi raised an eyebrow: "It's actually Chen Ye's brother. Chen Ye comprehended the true meaning of the Demonic Tiger during the training camp and won first place in this trial."
"Now that his brother has also grasped the true meaning of martial arts, could it be that their family has this potential in their genes?"
…………
After leaving the virtual world, Chen Zheng also checked the campus network. He could tell at a glance that the pinned posts were done by Jiang Mo.
Seeing thousands of comments discussing him under each post, Chen Zheng couldn't help but smile.
"This feeling of being famous seems pretty good."
With a slight sigh, Chen Zheng turned his attention back, opened his personal account, and found that the balance had become 17 + 1100.
With over 1100 points, I can exchange them for another 55 Fire Orchids.
But at that moment, Chen Zheng's eyes flickered slightly.
深渊
In the underground space, the entire hill has been hollowed out. On a stone platform 100 meters high and shaped like a throne, stands a black flame dragon with a body length of 21 meters and a shoulder height of over 6 meters.
The dog-headed demon Vara lay on the ground below, breathing weakly, with a huge bloody hole pierced through his chest, revealing his writhing internal organs.
If it weren't for the powerful vitality of a demon-level monster, it would already be dead.
Sokos knelt on one knee and reported on his exploration, such as the fact that the ground was a dense forest inhabited by many powerful monsters.
In addition, they also discovered traces of dog-headed tribes in the surrounding area.
However, the exploration was ultimately halted by a powerful monster. Vala was severely injured, and all of the more than one hundred dog-headed monsters accompanying him died.
It escaped disaster because it was used to hiding in the dark.
After a long silence, the Black Flame Dragon slowly growled, "What does that monster look like? What special abilities does it have?"
"Reporting to the King, that monster resembles an earth spider, with a tail similar to a scorpion behind it, and its body is about fifteen meters long when fully extended."
"This monster is incredibly powerful. Its eight pairs of blood-red eyes can unleash soul-based attacks, instantly annihilating all the dog-headed warriors."
"Vara was also stunned by the soul impact and had his chest pierced by the monster."
"When that monster was about to devour Vala, my subordinate leaped out of the darkness and used the Eye of Darkness to subdue the monster for a moment before taking it away."
It resembles a combination of a spider and a scorpion, with eight pairs of blood-red eyes on its head!
The Black Flame Dragon subconsciously recalled the memory of dozens of primordial demons fighting in the Blood Lake when it first 'hatched,' and how six of them, including itself, survived.
One of the escaped monsters was very similar to Sokos's description.
"Looks like I've run into someone I know!" The Black Flame Dragon's lips curled up, revealing a ferocious smile.
Each of the original monsters is unique, and eating them should bring great benefits.
Furthermore, this spider-scorpion appears to have awakened some kind of pupil-type talent, involving the soul, which is a very rare ability.
