Chapter 377 - Another One is Here to Die

They had thought the core disciples would quickly defeat Chen Fan, and Buyu would have to hand over his Paramita Divine Flower. However, with the finals approaching, Chen Fan remained unstoppable.

The elder who had claimed that Chen Fan wouldn’t crack the top hundred felt a flush of embarrassment, as though he\'d been slapped hard.

“Don’t feel smug just yet, Wei Buyu. Although your disciple has entered the top hundred, each step forward will bring tougher opponents. He could even face an Illusory Core realm expert in the next match. Then, he’ll lose without a doubt!” Fengyunzi said coldly, hoping to humble Wei Buyu\'s arrogance.

“Hoho, Fengyunzi, don\'t tempt fate. Wouldn’t you vomit blood and die from frustration if my good little disciple defeats an Illusory Core realm expert?” Wei Buyu said, chuckling.

“Hmph, I can’t be bothered fighting a war of words with you. As long as he doesn’t enter the top three, you will have to hand over your Paramita Divine Flower. Words won\'t change that," Fengyunzi retorted, his expression darkening further.

“Hehe, I doubt you\'ll be claiming my Paramita Divine Flower. But I\'ll be making quite the profit this time. The treasures you people wagered are not bad at all. I like them a lot.”

Wei Buyu ignored their ugly expressions, acting like he had already won the bet.

......

If Chen Fan was ever an obscure and unknown figure, he had now risen as a shining star. His strength had simply astonished everyone.

High up in the stands, some mighty holy disciples of the Spring Autumn Sect pondered deeply.

Among them were formidable figures like Feng Tianxia of the Tianxia Society, the Association Leader of the Gentlemen Association, and the Association Leader of the Omniscient Association. Every circle’s leader was present.

Although they didn’t shine as brightly as Duan Jingtian, they were all majestic figures. Their cultivation was incomparably powerful, and their strengths could shake the heavens. The fact that they could establish their organization to fight the Heaven’s Alliance attested to their strength.

Chen Fan sat in his seat, while the nearby elite disciples all looked at him, their gazes filled with awe and admiration.

His meteoric rise in just a year and a half surpassed even the famed Duan Jingtian. His brilliance seemed unparalleled.

Some people even thought that if Chen Fan and Duan Jingtian could resolve their differences, perhaps Chen Fan could become the next Duan Jingtian, overshadowing an era.

The people in the top hundred of the competition all had cultivation above the seventh level of the Yuanfu realm. All of them were seedlings with good prospects of advancing to the Core Formation realm, but Chen Fan was still relaxed.

He gazed at these people, briefly stopping on the Illusory Core realm experts like Yuan Kun, Li Wangsheng, Yan Hong, and Shangguan Yuhai. They were his true rival for the first place.

Chen Fan’s sharp perception picked up on their cultivation fluctuations, and he made some rough estimations in his heart.

Yuan Kun, Li Wangsheng, Yan Hong, and Shangguan Yuhai are all experts with a sixty to seventy percent solid illusory core. They’re as strong as Xue Tianhe before his breakthrough...

Chen Fan’s gaze fell on a woman.

Hmm? That is... Xu Jing.

This woman was worryingly thin as if a gust could blow her away, but there was something unsettling about Xu Jing that struck Chen Fan.

He sensed a great power within Xu Jing; it made his bloodline throb slightly.

As Xu Jing caught Chen Fan\'s gaze, she quickly averted her eyes, prompting Chen Fan to narrow his gaze in realization.

There’s something odd inside Xu Jing. She\'s resonating with my Rain Dragon bloodline. Right, Master said she possesses a dragon’s bloodline. That’s probably it...

The world was full of anomalies.

Since he could stumble upon Rain Dragons’ bloodline in the Dragon Mountain Blessed Land, there was nothing strange about Xu Jing also having a dragon’s bloodline.

Chen Fan saw Xu Jing standing up. It was her turn to fight.

Xu Jing was also in the Illusory Core realm, with around a fifty percent solid core. Although she was not as strong as Yuan Kun and the other three, she was still very powerful.

Her opponent in this round was an Illusory Core realm expert from the Floating Cloud Sword Sect. The two immediately came to blows as soon as they entered the battlefield.

The result surprised Chen Fan somewhat.

The participant from the Floating Cloud Sword Sect was as strong as Xu Jing and was a sword cultivator to boot. Given their high offensive power, he should have held the advantage, yet the result seemed to indicate otherwise.

Unexpectedly, a tremendous force surged from Xu Jing\'s slender form as she unleashed ten consecutive punches. She destroyed her opponent’s incredible sword techniques and beat him to the point of spewing blood.

Whoa, whoa.

The Spring Autumn Sect’s disciples murmured among themselves.

“Senior Sister Xu Jing’s so strong. My gosh, how does she have such tremendous power, to defeat a sword cultivator in the same realm in ten punches.”

“What’s surprising about that? I heard Senior Sister Xu Jing stumbled upon a fortuitous encounter. She entered a secret realm and accidentally fell into a pool of dragon blood. Not only did she survive, she absorbed the dragon blood and thus gained a dragon’s bloodline.”

“I see. It’s no wonder her fist art is so domineeringly fierce. Her punches have unstoppable momentum, with the power to split mountains.”

“......”

Just as Xu Jing’s battle ended, Chen Fan’s token vibrated. He immediately stood up and walked toward the battlefield.

He sensed thousands of gazes focusing on him.

In the inner area of the central battlefield, the number of remaining competitors dwindled, and each match became a captivating spectacle. Unlike the chaotic start, the atmosphere now brimmed with intensity.

Moreover, each victory at this point promised massive rewards.

Chen Fan, having fought tirelessly to this point, had no idea how many contribution points he had amassed. While he couldn\'t pinpoint the exact figure, it undoubtedly surpassed the accumulation of most experts, achieved within a mere few days rather than years or even decades.

Winning one round was a hundred contribution points, two wins was two hundred points, three wins was four hundred points, four wins was eight hundred points...

With such a snowballing accumulation, Chen Fan now had too many contribution points to count. He had already forgotten how many rounds he had won up until now.

As Chen Fan stood poised, he found himself face to face with none other than Thunderbolt Hands Liu Wuxiang from Heaven\'s Alliance.

Liu Wuxiang’s eyes emitted icy killing intent as he looked at Chen Fan. His cultivation fluctuated, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. His cultivation technique was a lightning-attributed one.

Chen Fan also knew that his opponent was a member of Heaven’s Alliance. Thus, he was not surprised. With an indifferent expression on his face, he thought. Another one is about to bite the dust.
