Chapter 64 Provocation

Chapter 64: Chapter 64 ProvocationEven Qin Lie on the stage hadn’t figured it out, how exactly did Ling Chen break through Su Lin’s Defensive Battle Body? After clashing for such a long time, if Ling Chen’s attacks were truly that powerful, why prolong the fight for so long? "Lin’er!" Su Mo let out a mournful cry, nearly fainting. Su Lin was the strongest talent of the Su Family besides the possessor of the Golden Spirit Body, Su Qingyun, and was expected to reach the Primordial Pill Realm in the future! Yet now, was he actually killed by Ling Chen during the True Martial Trial? How could he accept this? "Ling Chen, die for me!" Su Mo quickly calmed down, with a tap of his foot, he charged straight toward the stage. In mid-air, he struck with a handprint imbued with Spiritual Power. He was a seventh-level practitioner in the Spirit Sea Realm, with exceedingly condensed Spiritual Power, and even without using a Profound Spirit Technique, he was not someone a typical third-level Spirit Sea Realm could contend against! "Su Mo, you dare!" Ling Tianfeng bellowed angrily, countering with a palm strike, breaking Su Mo’s attack. His cultivation level was not weaker than Su Mo’s. "Enough!" Qin Lie coldly huffed, his figure appearing ghost-like before Su Mo, and then a punch landed on the latter, sending him flying dozens of feet away. He was a powerhouse at the Primordial Pill Realm, how could a mere seventh-level Spirit Sea Realm be his opponent? "Since it’s a martial arts tournament, casualties are of course a possibility! If you continue to pester, do not blame me for being heartless!" Qin Lie’s expression turned icy. Su Mo had repeatedly challenged his authority, as well as the authority of True Martial Academy. If it weren’t for Su Qingyun’s sake, he would have slain him long ago. Had Ling Chen’s talent been merely ordinary, maybe out of consideration for Su Qingyun’s face, he might have punished Ling Chen. But Ling Chen’s talent was clearly above Su Qingyun’s! Moreover, Ling Chen possessed the True Martial Token, and once he joined the True Martial Academy, he would certainly receive the highest level of cultivation. Su Qingyun was just a bearer of the Spiritual Body, truly no match for Ling Chen. Furthermore, Ling Chen killing Su Lin practically ensured his qualification to join True Martial Academy. To him, Ling Chen was one of his own. Whereas, Su Mo was nothing but an outsider, how could he be compared to Ling Chen? Looking at Su Mo, who was vomiting blood with his robes torn, a murderous intent flashed in Ling Chen’s eyes. He killed Su Lin because the latter fought viciously, targeting his life with every move. How could he not seek vengeance against Su Mo for disregarding his elder status and attempting to strike him down? Back then, his father was captured because he was weak. He must not follow in his father’s footsteps! "Su Mo, just you wait!" Ling Chen’s fists clenched tightly, his gaze filled with cold murderous intent. Seeing Qin Lie intervene, Ling Tianfeng breathed a sigh of relief. With this Primordial Pill Realm expert protecting him, Ling Chen should be safe. "Family Head, leave Ling Chen to me, I will definitely give you an explanation!" Su Qingyun approached and supported Su Mo, whispering. This True Martial Trial, although it was to recruit students, its most important purpose was to build momentum for him, the bearer of the Golden Spirit Body! Once the three spots were decided, he would personally enter the fray! "Good, you must kill him!" Su Mo nodded, his eyes filled with hatred. "Don’t worry!" Su Qingyun said coldly. He was the bearer of the Golden Spirit Body, not at all comparable to any Battle Body! Although he was only at the mid-stage of the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm, no young generation present was his match! The watching Cultivators were all shocked; even the Primordial Pill Realm elder from True Martial Academy had taken action for Ling Chen? "Ling Chen, congratulations, I, on behalf of True Martial Academy, welcome you to join us!" Qin Lie said with a smile. "Thank you, elder!" Ling Chen nodded slightly in salute. He wasn’t overly excited. Primarily because Su Mo’s actions had made him feel a sense of crisis. Just then, a piercing cold gaze swept over like a blade. Ling Chen sensed something and looked up. He saw Su Qingyun with a grin on his face, his right hand forming a knife-edge gesture, which he drew across his neck, the provocative intent unmistakable. But a smirk appeared on Ling Chen’s face, showing a trace of ridicule. Although Su Qingyun was a threefold Spirit Sea Realm cultivator who possessed the Golden Spirit Body, Ling Chen was not afraid. After all, he had a Sacred Body—both the Night Moon and Sunlight Holy Bodies. Moreover, he was a Divine Thought Master. In the battle with Su Lin, one of the main reasons Ling Chen was able to break through the opponent’s Defensive Battle Body was his Divine Soul Telekinesis. With this, during multiple exchanges, he found the vulnerabilities in the Defensive Shield, which is why he managed to land a decisive blow. As for how he had easily fended off Su Lin’s palm strike aimed at his Dantian, the explanation was simple. It was nothing more than the Black Tortoise Shield from the Four Symbols Profound Techniques! This Black Tortoise Shield was a mid-grade Defensive Profound Spirit Technique. Even if Su Lin used a mid-grade Attack Profound Spirit Technique, it would not be possible to break through. Since it was known as a Defensive Profound Spirit Technique, its defensive power was naturally extraordinary. It must be said, the Black Tortoise Shield was very similar to the Defensive Shield formed by the Defensive Battle Body. This was also why Su Lin mistakenly believed that Ling Chen possessed a Defensive Battle Body. "Brother Chen, congratulations!" Lin Xiaodu came over with a beaming smile. "Congratulations to you too!" Ling Chen smiled indifferently. Lin Xiaodu did not mind Ling Chen’s somewhat cool demeanor and continued with a smile, "Brother Chen, from now on we can ’ride the winds and cleave the waves’ together, right?" Ling Chen gave her a blank look: "That’s not how you use ’ride the winds and cleave the waves.’" "But I want to ’ride the winds and cleave the waves’ with you!" Lin Xiaodu’s eyes were like autumn waters, sending covert glances Ling Chen’s way. Ling Chen could only offer a wry smile. However, being teased by Lin Xiaodu like this did brighten his mood considerably. "Su Wu battles Ling Yunfei!" At this moment, Qin Lie’s voice rang out from the arena. This battle was even more intense than Ling Chen and Su Lin’s. S~eaʀᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. These two were both nine-star talent prodigies, and their cultivation was at the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm. The battle lasted for two whole quarters of an hour before concluding. In the end, Ling Yunfei narrowly claimed victory, securing the last qualification token. With the conclusion of this battle, the True Martial Trial had come to an end. Among the three major clans, the Ling Family, supposedly the weakest, unexpectedly had two prodigies qualifying for cultivation at the True Martial Academy, which was truly surprising. Su Mo’s face was an ashen hue. Whereas Ling Tianfeng was beaming with joy. Naturally, Ling Yunfei was overjoyed. He felt extremely fortunate; his luck was just too good. Had he faced Su Lin, he would have certainly been defeated without doubt. What surprised him even more was that Su Lin, whom he himself could not contend with, was unexpectedly defeated by Ling Chen. Just how heaven-defying was this cousin Ling Chen’s talent! "Cousin Ling Chen, in the future, we will cultivate together at the True Martial Academy. Please take care of me!" Ling Yunfei was very respectful. His talent was only nine stars, and whether he could step into the Primordial Pill Realm was unknown. But Ling Chen was different; in such a short period, his cultivation had caught up to him and his strength far surpassed Ling Yunfei’s. Unless he was out of his mind, he definitely would not miss this opportunity to hitch a ride with someone with higher potential. "Ladies and gentlemen, the True Martial Trial has come to an end." Qin Lie said with a smile. Li Hongluo was standing behind him. "However, before we leave, would you like to witness the power of a Spiritual Body?" Qin Lie looked out at the crowd. "What, witness the power of a Spiritual Body?" Everyone was stunned. Qin Lie and his companion had come specifically for the Spiritual Body, and it wasn’t just to conduct the True Martial Trial; more importantly, it was to drum up support for Su Qingyun who possessed the Golden Spirit Body! This was a tradition of the True Martial Academy!
