The Strongest Dandy in the City

Chapter 2499: Chapter 2488: Overwhelming Victory! Blasted to Death!

A burly Tian Wu.

He licked his lips and murmured to himself, "I used too much force. Such a pity, I ended up knocking him straight out of the arena."

Now that Wu Qishui had fallen off the stage, he naturally couldn’t attack Wu Qishui anymore.

Tian Wu’s strength was not only at the Heavenly God Realm First Layer Late Stage, but the toughness of his flesh was certainly extraordinary, at least around the Initial Stage of Heavenly God Realm Third Layer. It was evident that he had practiced body combat skills; otherwise, he could never have relied on a simple direct collision to cause Wu Qishui such a fate.

Only seeing Wu Qishui lying under the arena.

Although he hadn’t fainted, his appearance was extremely miserable, with almost all the bones in his chest shattered.

The whole person seemed to be on the verge of death.

Wu Zhiming immediately gave Wu Qishui an elixir pill, preventing his injuries from worsening.

Elders were not allowed to intervene in the competitions, and Wu Zhiming felt anger but had no outlet for it.

Wu Ren, Wu Lingyu, and Wu Gui wore serious expressions, clearly seeing that Tian Wu harbored murderous intent towards Ye Chenfeng. If Ye Chenfeng really confronted Tian Wu, the situation could become very precarious.

The subsequent branch competitions continued.

Wu Lingyu also didn’t make it through the first round, as she hadn’t reached the Heavenly God Realm, and her opponent was a cultivator at the Initial Stage of Heavenly God Realm First Layer.

Fortunately, Wu Lingyu only suffered minor injuries.

The first round of matches quickly concluded.

Next would be the draw for the second round.

Such is fate.

Ye Chenfeng was no longer drawn to be exempt; his opponent turned out to be Tian Wu.

This made Tian Wu, with a bloodthirsty expression, look at Ye Chenfeng with extreme derision.

When the people of the Wus heard that Ye Chenfeng’s opponent was Tian Wu, Wu Gui immediately said, "I think it’s best to forfeit this match! Wu Qishui couldn’t last even one round against Tian Wu, and Tian Wu harbors murderous intent towards you. Fighting him would be extremely dangerous."

Wu Lingyu agreed, "Precisely, now is not the time to show off. You need to learn to step back appropriately."

Wu Zhiming also thought Ye Chenfeng stepping into the ring would only lead to certain death: "Kid, just give up this fight! No one in the Wus will blame you; branch competitions are merely formalities, and you shouldn’t risk your life over them."

Wu Ren, knowing Ye Chenfeng’s identity, also felt deeply anxious. But others had already expressed all the words of persuasion; not knowing Ye Chenfeng’s true strength, he too thought Ye Chenfeng was walking into a death trap. But Ye Chenfeng was Wu Fengxian and Jiang Yuntian’s disciple! He absolutely must not be exposed to mortal danger.

Regarding Wu Gui and their persuasion, Ye Chenfeng casually shrugged his shoulders. He didn’t speak, misleading others to think he was considering.

His match against Tian Wu was the second one.

The first match quickly ended.

Tian Wu couldn’t wait to stride onto the arena. His eagerness to kill Ye Chenfeng was entirely driven by jealousy over Ye Chenfeng’s epiphany; sometimes hate inexplicably arises like this.

"Kid, too scared to step onto the stage?" Tian Wu stared directly at Ye Chenfeng.

Wu Gui and the others wanted Ye Chenfeng to keep his composure.

However, before they could speak again, Ye Chenfeng’s figure had already darted onto the stage.

Seeing Ye Chenfeng stand on the stage.

Wu Gui and the others were extremely anxious.

Wu Zhiming cursed angrily, "Foolish, utterly foolish."

In the lower right of the arena.

Stood two youths at the Late Stage of Heavenly God Realm First Layer.

They were the other two popular contenders for the branch competition championship, Xia Yangguang and Hu Shengli.

Xia Yangguang was a scion of the Divine Fire Sect’s branch, while Hu Shengli was from the branch of the Demon Cloud Holy Ground.

They had crossed paths before and were acquainted.

Seeing Ye Chenfeng, who had a cultivation at Late Stage of Earth God Realm Six Layer, step onto the stage, they both shook their heads mockingly.

"Just a hot-headed fool who doesn’t know death, Tian Wu’s strength is on par with us. A kid at the Late Stage of Earth God Realm Six Layer, how dare he step onto the stage." Xia Yangguang spoke with utter disdain.

Hu Shengli also said, "He probably had an epiphany before and thinks he’s great now, but he’ll soon become a corpse."

Having been knocked off the stage directly by Tian Wu, sustaining severe internal injuries, Wu Qishui weakly said, "Ignorant, does he think he can beat Tian Wu? Even I couldn’t match Tian Wu; he’s definitely walking to his death."

In the shadows.

Wu Chengyan and Jiang Shengliang, both at Extreme Peak, were also observing the competition here. They, too, didn’t know Ye Chenfeng’s true strength.

Wu Chengyan transmitted a message to Jiang Shengliang: "Old Jiang, what do you think we should do? Even though the ancestor has outstanding talent, his strength is only at the Late Stage of Earth God Realm Six Layer; I’m afraid he won’t be able to match the opponent."

Jiang Shengliang originally didn’t feel much recognition for Ye Chenfeng as their ancestor. After witnessing Ye Chenfeng’s reckless step onto the stage, he thought Ye Chenfeng was too young and impulsive. But since Ye Chenfeng was Jiang Yuntian’s disciple, he replied, "Let’s see how it goes. It’s not suitable for us to intervene now."

While everyone had their own thoughts.

On the stage.

Tian Wu sneered, "Not only are you useless, but your brain isn’t working well either. If I were you, I’d rather be a coward hiding in my shell."

Ye Chenfeng, wearing a mask, calmly said, "Isn’t your nonsense a bit excessive?"

Tian Wu’s face turned instantly grim, "At this point, you still dare to talk tough?"

His aura at the Late Stage of Heavenly God Realm First Layer erupted instantly, yet without deploying any techniques, his figure suddenly vanished from the original spot.

In Ye Chenfeng’s eyes, Tian Wu’s movements were slow, and couldn’t escape his sight.

Only to see Tian Wu quickly appear in front of Ye Chenfeng, his body fiercely smashing toward Ye Chenfeng.

The impact was heavy.

For a typical cultivator at Late Stage of Earth God Realm Six Layer, such a smash would likely cost half a life.

In the shadows, Wu Chengyan and Jiang Shengliang frowned, prepared to act at any moment.

Under the stage, Wu Gui, Wu Lingyu, and others showed faces full of concern; in their opinion, Ye Chenfeng would fare worse than Wu Qishui from this hit.

Yet.

Just as Tian Wu’s smile widened at the corner of his mouth.

Ye Chenfeng’s aura also suddenly soared. Though his aura was only at the Late Stage of Earth God Realm Six Layer, it equaled the aura emitted by Tian Wu, which was bizarre.

"Boom!"

Then.

Tian Wu finally collided with Ye Chenfeng.

The smile on his face came to an abrupt halt.

Slowly.

Slowly.

A sense of fear kept enlarging in his eyes.

Another "Boom!"

His body directly exploded, turning into a bloody mist in the air.

What was happening here?

Everyone was instantly dumbfounded.

However, Ye Chenfeng’s aura remained constant at the Late Stage of Earth God Realm Six Layer, unchanged from start to finish.
