Chapter 196: Crappy Foundation Establishment Realm (Requesting Monthly Votes)
The attic, on the third floor.
When Su Qianyuan forced Wu Yue out with a single punch, it was equivalent to a verdict.
Su Qianyuan had won.
And he had won with extreme ease.
The might of one punch was enough to prevent his opponent from getting up; he didn't even need to throw a real punch.
Seeing this, the representatives of the Hidden Sects were nearly dumbfounded.
"This person... Is that the power of his physical body? Has physical strength become terrifying to this extent? Am I dreaming?"
"This physique, he must have followed the path of Body Refinement, right? Isn't the pinnacle of Body Refinement only supposed to reach the Golden Core Realm? And a Body Refining Golden Core is supposed to be weaker than a normal cultivator..."
"Could it be that this disciple from the Hidden Sect of the East State has forged a new path for the Body Refinement method?!"
"That must be the case. To take the Body Refinement path to such a level, making it comparable to the path of cultivation, this person must be the founding patriarch of Body Refinement!!"
"My god, does Senior Chu have one disciple who practices swordsmanship, one disciple who turns formations into art, and another disciple who has essentially paved a new way for Body Refinement? Is this what it means to be a Hidden Sect with a three-million-year legacy?"
The few representatives were communicating through voice transmission.
One was more shocked than the next.
They were simply astounded by everything the Hidden Sect of the East State had shown them.
First, there was Senior Chu, who they could never see through and always seemed to be at the Foundation Establishment Realm, yet he spoke truths as profound as the laws of heaven and earth.
Then there were these three disciples, each more outstanding and terrifying than the last.
Their mission was to see just how deep the heritage of the Hidden Sect of the East State ran.
They no longer wanted to think about their mission.
Don't ask, for asking would confirm that the Hidden Sect of the East State, Sect Without Dao, is badass!!!
You ask me how many years the Hidden Sect of the East State has inherited its legacy?
Three million years is not enough!!
As for Chu Yuan.
At this very moment, Chu Yuan's mood was quite spectacular.
So spectacular that he nearly wished to run up to Ma Lian and slap him several times.
Damn you, weren't you supposed to be so powerful?
My disciple, from a humble small sect, managed to defeat a disciple from the Holy Land, and was brought to his knees without even being punched??
Do you know how many Spirit Stones I wagered?! A good few thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones!!
These were Spirit Stones that he hadn't even warmed up yet, and they were already gone.
Chu Yuan wanted to cry.
This time he truly felt like crying.
But with these representatives of the Hidden Sect of Zhongzhou present, he absolutely couldn't show any emotion, only forcing himself to maintain an appearance of calm detachment.
Fortunately, Dantai Luoxue was still competing.
Dantai Luoxue had even higher odds against her.
And moreover, Dantai Luoxue was a mere mortal, surely without any chance of defeating her adversary.
Chu Yuan was trying to comfort himself.
Still, a feeling of discomfort grew in his heart.
The few representatives of the Hidden Sects who were thinking of asking Chu Yuan about the Body Refinement path noticed Chu Yuan staring at the attic's floor, lost in thought, and none dared to disturb him.
"Senior Chu must be considering some matters; let's not disturb him. As for what we wanted to ask, I think we really don't need to ask Senior Chu. Even if we did, the answer would probably be that with hands, one can manage."
One of them said through voice transmission.
Upon hearing this,
The corners of the mouths of the others began to twitch.
With hands, one can manage? To pave a new way for a method, to become a founding patriarch, even if they used their feet as well as their hands, they wouldn't be able to manage.
However, they truly didn't dare to disturb Chu Yuan.
Fearing that they might startle Senior Chu and somehow ruin his affairs.
While they thought this, each of them began to harbor thoughts of pledging allegiance to the Hidden Sect of the East State.
If everyone from the Hidden Sect of the East State was so formidable, could they too become such terrifying existences if they joined?
While they were lost in their thoughts,
Chu Yuan finally came back to his senses and suddenly stood up,
prompting the others to snap out of their reverie as well.
"How much do you know about this person Chu He?" Chu Yuan asked indifferently.
If he remembered correctly,
the opponent of his fourth apprentice was this person named Chu He.
It seemed he had been intimidated by Su Qianyuan's opponent.
Unable to help himself, Chu Yuan directly inquired about 'Chu He's' personal information.
"Senior Chu, I know about this person. He is a disciple of the Holy Land Xuanxian Pavilion, reputed to be skilled in the Talisman Technique, with strength comparable to the Tribulation Transcending Stage, a prominent figure in Zhongzhou aside from the top geniuses."
Someone informed explained.
Upon hearing this,
Chu Yuan became somewhat skeptical.
Last time, didn't you say that Ma Lian was incredibly strong? And then he was knocked down with a turn of the hand.
Are you hyping up another one??
Seeing the look in Chu Yuan's eyes, it seemed as if the others understood his sentiment.
"Speaking of which, what kind of joke is Ma Lian? Although Senior Chu's disciple is very strong, isn't Ma Lian too weak? How could such a person be included in the Great Sects' Competition?"
"Indeed, even an Outer Sect Disciple from our sect is stronger than Ma Lian, how could such a loser have sneaked into the Great Sects' Competition?"
"I will go and ask Wu Yue what exactly is going on with this Great Sects' Competition."
The people started speaking.
Some left the third floor right after saying they would go to find Wu Yue.
Chu Yuan, watching the bustle within the third floor, took a deep breath.
Chu He, oh Chu He.
We both share the surname Chu.
You better not bring about any surprises, right?
If Dantai Luoxue, a mere mortal, cannot win...
Then there's no point in talking about anything else. He would go directly with Ye Luo Zhang Han to teach the opponent a lesson.
Chu Yuan thought to himself, sighed softly, and attempted to inject mana to continue watching the other battles.
But just as he was about to channel his mana,
he discovered his mana was depleted.
Chu Yuan: "..."
Crappy Foundation Establishment Realm!!
