Chapter 62: Afraid to go on stage?

  On the stage, the ancient Buddhist robe fluttered, with golden light flowing across his body, like an ancient war god.

  Tens of thousands of disciples in the square, everyone's eyes are all focused on this man who is like an ancient war god.

  Disciples all around, with reverence, worship, excitement, and shock.

  "Gu Yan is the strongest!"

  Suddenly, one of Gu's disciples shouted loudly.

  Suddenly, it caused other disciples to go wild.

  "Gu Yan is the strongest!"

  "Gu Yan is the strongest!"

  The entire square was filled with loud shouts, one wave rising higher than another, one tide surging higher than another.

  All disciples fell into a frenzy of excitement, shouting amidst it.

  Elite disciples have never experienced such a frenzy before.

  The two hosts of the martial arts competition exchanged a glance, but did not open their mouths to stop the fervor of the disciples around them.

  "I heard that Gu Yan is only 21 years old, I didn't expect him to be a top-notch expert already! Gu Yan's potential is limitless!"

  "According to the rules of our Martial God Temple, as long as one breaks through to the Imperial Level, they can become a True Disciple! However, it's extremely rare for someone like Gu Yan, who was an Inner Disciple, to directly surpass the Elite Disciples and become a True Disciple!"

  Two strong men of Wu Zong discussed.

  Martial God Temple, above the elite disciples are the true transmission disciples.

  The only condition for becoming a true disciple is to become an imperial-level powerhouse!

  As long as one becomes a top-notch powerhouse, they can automatically advance and become a true disciple, without the need for trials or assessments.

  "I think this Gu Yan might become the second Lei Haoxuan of our Wu Shen Temple!"

  "Another Lei Haoxuan? Impossible! Although this Gu Yan's potential is not bad, it still can't compare to the one known as the strongest genius in the history of our Wu Shen Temple, Lei Haoxuan!"

  When it comes to Lei Haoran, the two strong men of the Wu Zong couldn't hide the reverence and admiration in their hearts, even with a hint of fanaticism. This fanaticism was even more intense than that of the disciples around the square looking at Gu Yan.

  Long Jing Tian stood amidst the frenzied crowd, his face calm, while he noticed that the young man in black, Fan Xiao, was watching Gu Yan on stage with a scornful smile at the corner of his mouth.

  It seemed as if he sensed Long Jing Tian's gaze, and at this time, Fan Xiao turned his head over and exchanged a glance with Long Jing Tian.

  Fan Xian, who had always been expressionless and cold-faced, revealed a smile to Long Qing.

  On the stage, enjoying the cheers of the crowd, Gu Yan suddenly raised his hands and pressed down on the surrounding disciples, signaling them to quiet down.

  The disciples around the square suddenly fell silent at the sight.

  Tens of thousands of eyes were all staring at Gu Yan.

  At this time, Gu Yan turned his head and suddenly looked at Long Jingtian below the stage. He pointed at Long Jingtian and shouted in a condescending tone: "Long Jingtian, last time in the inner temple assessment, I was careless for a moment and lost to you. Now get up here, I want to defeat you in front of tens of thousands of disciples!"

  A moment of silence.

  In an instant, tens of thousands of disciples turned their eyes to Long Jing Tian at once.

  For a moment's carelessness, I lost to you? Long Jing Tian smiled slightly.

  "Ha! What's wrong? Afraid, are you? If you're not brave enough, then get out of here and don't come back to participate in the elite disciple competition, or you'll just end up making a fool of yourself!"

  The sound of Gu Yan's voice kept echoing in the square.

  The disciples around him were shocked.

  "It was actually last time in the inner temple assessment, Gu Yan Shixiong lost to Long Jing Tian due to a momentary lapse of attention. I said that with Gu Yan Shixiong's abilities, it is impossible for him to lose to Long Jing Tian!"

  "Now, even Long Tian doesn't dare to go on stage, this is the best proof!"

  "Go on stage? Ming knows he'll lose, going on stage would be even more miserable and humiliating?! Gu Yan Shi Xiong is now a royal-level expert, even Hong and Shi Xiong were easily defeated, let alone Long Jing Tian?!"

  The mocking voices of fellow disciples filled his ears.

  Of course, most of these people are from the Gu family, and some are from the Tie family and Feng Long.

  Among the discussions and ridicules of his fellow disciples, Long Jing Tian's face remained calm as he flashed onto the stage.

  The crowd of disciples saw this and were stunned.

  "Unexpectedly, Long Tianming actually dared to go on stage despite knowing he would lose!"

  "What can he do if he doesn't go on stage? If he dares not to go on stage, in the future, he won't even dare to lift his head in front of all the disciples. I heard that Murong Qian has a crush on him, if she hears that Long Jing Tian didn't even dare to respond, what do you think she will think?!"

  "I really don't understand what Murong Qian is thinking, what's so good about Long Jing Tian? I say that Gu Cen Shixiong is many times better than Long Jing Tian!"

  "Not bad, if I were Murong Qian, I would choose Gu Cang."

  Gu Yan stood on the stage, listening to the discussions of his fellow disciples around him, and coldly stared at Long Jing Tian: "Long Jing Tian, you didn't think I would break through to the Imperial level this time, did you? I said it before, in this Elite Disciple Competition, I must defeat you, and make you kneel before me!"

  Long Jing Tian's face remained calm as he replied indifferently, "Are you worthy of it?"

  Gu Yan was taken aback for a moment, his eyes flashing with fierce light as he sneered, "Just watch me!" As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of golden light shot up into the sky.

  On the empty stage, layers of golden light converged, and surprisingly formed a shadow of a war god.

  This war god wears golden armor and holds a halberd, with an aura from ancient times that overpowers all directions.

  The disciples around him, even the two strong martial artists who were presiding over the trial, looked at the war god's shadow and revealed a shocked expression.

  "God of War Totem!"

  "It's actually the Totem of the God of War!"

  "It is said that only a select few with extraordinary talents can summon the Totem's image!"

  "These people will all become legendary figures who shake the Azure Continent in the future!"

  The entire square was in an uproar.

  At this time, a young man in black shirt Fan Xiao under the stage also looked at the Totem image and showed an unexpected expression.

  "Long Jing Tian, in fact, I should thank you even more. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to summon the War God Totem!" Gu Yan Ling stood tall in mid-air, looking down at Long Jing Tian with pride.

  God of War Totem? Long Jing Tian's face was calm.

  "Die!" Gu Yan roared, his body flashing as he threw a punch at Long Qingtian.

  "For the God of War!"

  Only to see his head top war god totem light a surge, a mysterious power poured into his body, ancient Sanskrit momentum once again boosted.

  Just as Gu Yan's fist was about to hit Long Qingtian, the latter struck out with a punch that seemed casual but felt like facing millions of Long Qingtians in Gu Yan's eyes.

  Long Qingtian's attack was like a storm from all directions, leaving him nowhere to hide and no place to escape. No matter where he fled or how far he ran, he couldn't dodge this punch.

  "Bang!"

  Two people's fists collided.

  Gu Yan only felt his fist shake violently, a strong and powerful force came, and his body flew out of control.

  Just then, a figure flashed by, and Long Qingtian appeared above Gu Yan's body.

  Long Jing's eyes were cold and stern, and he slapped his palm down fiercely.

  "Big Luo's Palm!"

  "Turn the world upside down!"

  Under Longyin Tian's palm, the entire world seemed to have been turned upside down.

  God sees that I've been feeling unwell lately, and have been taking anti-inflammatory medication for a week. Everyone knows that taking anti-inflammatory medication is exhausting, sometimes even after sleeping in the afternoon, it's hard to wake up. So these two days, I've only updated one chapter per day. Tomorrow will resume to two updates per day.
