Watching Wang Chen leave, the Fifth Elder's mouth corners revealed a faint smile: "Youngster, the first challenge is coming! Hehe, whether you can withstand it or not depends on you! I hope you won't disappoint us! Those guys outside are really good at causing trouble."
He had just come back from outside a moment ago, so he naturally knew what had happened inside the inner gate.
"Hmm, this kid is about to face his first trial! Recently reached the bottleneck of 6th rank True Martial Artist, and Star Refining Body has also reached a bottleneck. This trial might bring unexpected gains!" Just then, from the wooden hut in the back, another elder walked out and said calmly.
This attendant, one of the eight attendants inside the gate, was about seventy years old. He had a sturdy build and didn't look old at all! His hair was still jet black, and if you didn't see his face from the front, just looking at his back would make you think he was a robust man in his thirties or forties.
For martial artists, after reaching this level, their lifespan is extended. Seventy years old for them is just less than half of their life! Those who enter the Imperial Martial Realm can live to be over 180 years old. Obviously, seventy years old for people at this level is just a young age.
"Have we reached a bottleneck?" Upon hearing what Hachioji said, Gohongi was taken aback and replied unexpectedly.
A look of astonishment appeared on his face, apparently shocked by Wang Chen's cultivation speed. In just a short period of one and a half months, this little guy is about to break through again? It's unbelievable.
"Haha, I also heard it from the old guys!" Ba Gong said with an awkward smile.
Those old guys worshiped with a hint of dissatisfaction in their eyes, and also with a hint of fear.
Similarly, Wu Gong heard this sentence, and the last bit of suspicious eyes also completely disappeared. If those old guys said it, it must be true.
"No way, I have to go out and take a look, or else those little guys inside will be lawless! Dare to hurt our disciple, I'll destroy him!" Then, the Eight Venerables curled their lips, took big strides, and were about to head outside.
"You... I'm telling you to have some dignity! Going out like this, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by others!" Looking at the eighth supply's appearance, the fifth supply couldn't help but laugh and cry.
"Are you not going? You're responsible if something happens to that little guy?" The elder said discontentedly.
"Cough, cough... This... Hmm, this won't do! Either you go, be careful, don't let others discover it. If it's known that you, as a guardian, are secretly watching, Wang Chen will have a hard time in the future!" The Fifth Guardian trembled with laughter and awkwardly said after being refuted by the Eighth Guardian.
"This is the way it should be! If something happens to Wang Chen, those old guys won't let us off. Now they're protecting Wang Chen with their lives!" Ba Gongzhu muttered to himself and quietly followed behind.
On the other hand, Wang Chen knew that Ke Er had come over to look for him and quickly walked out with a hint of puzzlement.
Outside this forbidden area, Ke'er was anxious and pacing back and forth on the spot, her hands clenched into fists, extremely worried.
"Wang Chen, you've finally arrived! Hurry up and follow me!" Seeing Wang Chen come out, Ke'er's face showed a hint of excitement, then she went forward without hesitation, pulling Wang Chen's hand to head outside.
"What's wrong? What happened?" Wang Chen asked with a puzzled expression. But Ke'er's anxious attitude made Wang Chen even more bewildered.
"Madman... something's happened to the madman! Hurry, hurry and follow me! Xiang Gan is holding him back over there right now!" Kē jiǎo said with a worried expression.
Has something happened to Crazy? Hearing this, Wang Chen's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He didn't dare to be careless and hastily followed Ke'er as they rushed outside.
Along the way, Wang Chen also roughly learned about the specific situation from Ke Er's mouth.
It has been two and a half months since entering the inner gate, and naturally, Ke'er and Zilan, these two golden flowers, are the most sought-after objects of pursuit by the senior brothers in the inner gate.
It's nothing anyway! After all, the two of them are indeed good-looking and it's no wonder they're popular with everyone!
However, among these people, there is one person whose momentum is particularly fierce! Taking advantage of his power to bully others.
Seeing the two men, Kuang Ren and Xiang Gan Kan, often together with Ke Er and Zi Lan, they deliberately provoke trouble. Relying on their strong strength, long time in the inner door, and large number of people, they often provoke Kuang Ren and others.
At first, under Ke'er and Zilan's persuasion, Kuang Ren could still bear it, but in the long run, what kind of personality is Kuang Ren? Can he still bear it?
Just last night, the madmen couldn't help but take action! Although the inner sect rules prohibit causing trouble, in a place like Xingchen Sect, not fighting is clearly impossible.
The training method of the outer gate determined that everyone in Xīng Chén Zōng was a good fighter, with an absolute frenzy for battle, and the factor of combat had grown within them.
So, the inner door allows for arena challenges. Fights within the martial arts arena will not be punished, but rather encouraged.
The madman had a fierce battle with those guys in the martial arts arena and ended up being severely injured!
Xiang Qian learned about the news and immediately went to reason with those people today, but ended up getting beaten.
Although it's one-on-one, although Xiang Qian is quite capable, but definitely won't be a match for those people! The more time they spend in the inner door, the more years of cultivation they represent. Their strength is not something that outer door disciples can compare to, nor is it something that these newly entered inner door disciples can compare to.
Within the inner gate, after a year of cultivation, even those with the worst aptitude can reach the level of a 7th or 8th rank True Martial Artist, and some exceptionally talented individuals can even enter the ranks of 9th rank True Martial Artists or Spiritual Warriors.
For such things, although Xiang Gan and others are direct disciples, if they compete in the martial arts arena, the elders also cannot intervene.
After some thought, the only person he could think of was Wang Chen, so in his anxiety, he took a risk and came to find Wang Chen.
"Damn it!" Wang Chen cursed loudly upon hearing the news.
A cold glint flashed through his eyes! The people of the Wang family are all protective of their own, and Kuang Ren is his friend, so he will not sit idly by and let someone bully him to his face. This is the instinctive reaction that runs in the blood of the Wang family!
Down below, following Ke'er, the two of them rushed towards the martial arts arena at their fastest speed.
When they arrived at the martial arts arena, a crowd had already gathered. Heads surged forward, and in the center position, two figures were engaged in fierce combat. The atmosphere was intense, and the onlookers cheered loudly!
According to Ke'er's account, the person who is currently fighting with Xiang Qiankun is one of the provocateurs! His strength is at the level of an 8th rank True Martial Artist, belonging to a follower-level guy. In the inner sect, he belongs to the lower echelons!
In the fighting circle, Xiang Gan's rather stout body was surprisingly agile at this moment. His figure flashed quickly in the arena and was actually on par with this eighth-rank True Martial Artist.
This was the first time Wang Chen had seen Xiang Qianke's true strength! Seeing this, Wang Chen also felt a little moved. It was clear that Xiang Qianke's strength far exceeded his imagination! He had actually reached the peak of the 7th rank True Martial Artist, and with his crazy fighting momentum, he was not inferior to that 8th rank True Martial Artist.
This guy is indeed hiding deep enough, outside the door without showing any signs, and when he makes a move, it's earth-shattering!
Moreover, Wang Chen can be certain that based on the current situation, Xiang Qianke must have entered the realm of a 7th-stage True Martial Artist when he was still in the outer sect. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to reach the peak in just two short months and be only one step away from becoming an 8th-stage True Martial Artist!
If he had shown this strength at the outer gate, he would have been able to enter the inner gate directly! And the first seat of the Star Chart in the outer gate wouldn't have gone to Liu Xiangyan.
This scene also made many inner door disciples wide-eyed! The new outer door member who just entered was actually on par with the old members who had been in the inner door for a year, which is absolutely rare.
Xiang Qian has managed to do it, and relying on the earthly martial skills brought from the Starry Sky Realm, the overbearing moves have tightly suppressed the opponent! If this continues, victory is within his grasp.
Seeing this, Wang Chen was shocked at the same time and also let out a breath of relief, with a hint of a smile on his lips.
Xiang Qiankan grew more courageous with each battle, the roar of the crowd was incessant, dust flew everywhere, and Xiang Qiankan's opponent also became increasingly frightened.
Being suppressed in front of so many people, the danger is that he has lost all face! If he loses to a new member who has just entered from the outer gate to the inner gate, he will not be able to take a single step in the inner gate from now on.
Originally, an eighth-rank Zhenwu practitioner wasn't anything within the inner sect! Now, he didn't even have a position to speak of.
At this point, a loud roar, the long sword in mid-air, crazy dance, cold long sword flashing chill edge, sword gas overwhelming, pulling out a scene after another of sword shadow.
The true yuan force burst out of his body, and he displayed the most powerful move, apparently intending to make a final counterattack!
Xiang Qian could hardly let him have his way, a soft shout, the true yuan force of his whole body also burst out, and the strongest move of the Earth Stage martial technique was exploded.
In an instant, Zhou Tian's palm shadow appeared, and a low rumble sounded in the air, as if thunder was rolling.
Both sides have made their final preparations!
The next moment, two figures rushed towards each other and intertwined in an instant! Xiang Qiankan poured his true yuan energy into his palms to counter the enemy's sword, with palm winds and sword auras intertwining, sending out waves of thunderous sounds.
The sky lost its color, the earth was gloomy, dust filled the air, and strong winds howled.
Two figures flashed quickly, palm winds and sword energy ravaging the entire arena, forcing the surrounding onlookers to retreat several meters back.
The rumbling sound continued, and after exchanging more than a dozen blows, Xiang Qian finally saw his opponent retreat with a powerful palm!
Gain the upper hand, launch a fierce attack, and within just one minute, seal the victory!
"Boundless Fist!" A furious roar! Xiang Qiankan, after securing the victory, not only didn't relax but instead once again unleashed another powerful martial technique.
With a single punch from Cang Ming, in an instant, the sky and earth turned dismal and lost their color.
"Boom..."
In the midst of a whistling fist wind, one punch struck the opponent's chest, and in a dull hum, the opponent was directly knocked out of the arena.
Pfft...
A mouthful of blood was spat out, and the whole person slumped to the ground, unable to get up again.
Achieving victory, standing on the spot, Xiang Gan was panting heavily, it was clear that this victory was too hard-won for him.
Wang Chen in the distance saw this scene and his heart also slightly put down, as long as Xiang Qian Kan was fine.
"Haha...... Not bad, I've actually won! Now it's my turn!" However, just as Wang Chen had let out a breath of relief, another person walked slowly into the arena with a cold smile, looking at Xiang Qian and saying.
