Free Web NovelChapter 1126: Chapter 689: Heroes Bow Before the Overlord, The Starsea Grand Plan Unfolds! (Part 3)
The Three Limits are the same, yet Meng Chuan is so formidable.
It seems everyone is walking together on the mountain path, but someone has already reached the summit early...
In the contestants’ area, after everyone left, only two figures remained.
To be precise, they were two Daoists.
"The Daoist sect is mighty!"
"It’s gotta be you, Dao Masters! Have you noticed? Whether monks or nuns, as soon as the Buddhist Sect sees something’s amiss, they run the fastest!"
"Tsk, tsk, maybe not? Did you forget about Wudang’s Golden Turtle, Lu Xiaoyao?"
"That’s the difference in cultivation philosophy between the Buddhist Path and others. Actually, those from the United University are pretty good too, like Ma Huangjun and Lord Yao; they’re all bold and courageous and have a strong spirit!"
Meng Chuan is so terrifying, yet there are still those who dare to step up.
Everyone began to praise, and the comments poured in densely for a while.
The two Daoists, one in a scarlet and yellow closed-front, intricately adorned robe.
The other wearing a dark blue loose robe with wide sleeves, and double floating ribbons under the right arm.
This marked the distinction between Zhengyi and Quanzhen.
The former, who had been strategizing in the contestants’ area, was Zhou Shu, a talented scholar from the Celestial Master Mansion of Dragon Tiger Mountain.
The latter was the elder brother of the one recently known as ’Vertical Earth Turtle Light’, Lu Wuyá of the Quanzhen Wudang Sect’s Purple Cloud Dragon.
Truthfully, Lu Wuyá had long wanted to retreat...
Regarding the philosophy of Martial Arts, everyone had different understandings, and he did not agree with Li Wenshu’s words.
Knowing something is impossible yet doing it is foolishness.
Acting according to the situation and within one’s means is the natural Dao!
If that’s the case, then why did Lu Wuyá remain in the contestants’ area with a red light on, not leaving?
Just now, Headmaster Chen Tuan sent someone to convey a message to him:
"Fight till the end! It must be an exciting fight! In front of nearly three billion people, you must reclaim the Wudang’s honor that your brother Lu Xiaoyao lost!"
"..."
...
Only two remained; the Overlord Challenge segment was about to end.
The host, Dong Xin, pretended to inquire lightheartedly:
"Esteemed Daoist Masters, may I ask who will take the stage first?"
The two exchanged a glance and said in unison:
"After you, Dao Brother!"
"...."
The venue was silent, and just as both looked at Meng Chuan, they spoke simultaneously:
"May we go together?"
Meng Chuan looked at them and shrugged:
"I have no objections."
"This doesn’t comply with the rules of the competition... Since both Daoist Masters wish for the other to take the stage first, let the AI decide."
Dong Xin twitched her lips and quickly intervened.
Five seconds later, a bright red light shone on Zhou Shu, casting his face in a steely hue.
In contrast, Lu Wuyá heaved a heavy sigh of relief inwardly, sat back in the contestants’ area, and lounged with legs crossed.
Lu Wuyá thought to himself:
"Being the last to take the stage, this is great. Zhou Shu excels at the Five Elements Thunder Law, with unrivaled destructive and explosive power among all contestants. If he can injure Meng Chuan, there’s still a chance for this Dao Master to take him down..."
Lu Wuyá is most adept at the Dao of Yin and Yang; his shield and knife are like yin and yang, the left hand shield defends against everything, and the right hand knife is unrivaled in killing, with no apparent weaknesses. It is most suitable to deliver a fatal blow to a fatigued Meng Chuan at the end!
In no time, Lu Wuyá saw the two enter the spiritual world and held his breath to watch the battle.
...
"[Zhengyang Thunder Gang · Zhou Shu], trained under Daoist Lord Luo Xun of the Celestial Master Mansion, Meng Daoist, please."
Joining his sleeves, Zhou Shu cupped his hands in a Daoist salute to Meng Chuan.
"Please."
The Celestial King’s Direct Disciple, Meng Chuan’s expression grew a bit more earnest.
"Please."
In the venue, sitting furthest to the left, occupying the "top seat" on the Overlord’s chair, Chen Zhiming slowly opened his eyes.
Zhou Shu was a disciple of his martial uncle, and the two were quite close.
He observed Zhou Shu in the light screen as he channeled the heavenly thunder, and nodded quietly:
"Zhou Shu exhibits a remarkable talent for the Thunder Law, and even the Celestial Master praises him greatly.
In a sudden burst, even I would not dare underestimate him. Defeating Meng Chuan is not impossible; it depends on whether he gets the opportunity..."
Chen Zhiming greatly admired Meng Chuan’s recent performance.
But that was all, nothing more.
Martial Arts is cruel; Meng Chuan’s seemingly indestructible defense is actually vulnerable under his [Jade Pendent Slaughter’s Pure Gang]...
Being so arrogant now, accumulating so much Martial Arts fortune. freёwebnovel.com
If it’s not handed over to Zhou Shu, during the finals, he will gladly accept it all...
Meanwhile, far away at Dragon Tiger Mountain.
A group of Daoists sat within the grand Daoist palace, watching the large championship light screen projected on the wall, their expressions excited.
One of the Daoists pointed at the screen, shouting:
"Look, look! Brother Zhou is on stage!"
"Brother Zhou’s prowess is formidable; even my master praises him, saying that even if a True Man stands before him, without True Gang protection, it would be difficult to withstand Brother Zhou’s powerful Thunder Law!"
"Can he break Meng Chuan’s defense?"
After pondering for a moment, that person said decisively:
"He certainly can!"
Everyone held high hopes for Zhou Shu, yet in the crowd, one person looked at the screen, fixating on a particular figure with an exceedingly complicated expression and shook his head.
Others might not understand Meng Chuan, but Luo Qin understood all too well!
Since losing to Meng Chuan in the Supernova Championship finals, for countless nights, he secretly studied this opponent.
To defeat him, Luo Qin even took up intense physical training!
However, reality is harsh.
He is still some distance from the Three Limits, and he didn’t even get a chance to participate in this martial exhibition...
But when it comes to understanding Meng Chuan, Luo Qin far surpasses the others!
There’s no need to overthink; the simplest:
Anyone of the same realm as Meng Chuan, when confronting him, should automatically view him as being one realm higher.
It may seem like a battle between two Grandmasters, but the former has long mastered Grandmaster Level combat power, while the latter is destined to be crushed.
And those who are a realm higher can view him as being of the same realm; if Meng Chuan is at the End Realm Grandmaster, even an End Realm True Man can still possibly battle him!
