Chapter 66 Who Says I Want to Enter the Inner Courtyard?

"One move?"

At the scene,

aside from Shen Mirui, everyone’s expression froze.

They all looked at Qin Chen as if he were an idiot.

One move to defeat a martial artist at the Body Refining Eighth Layer?

Moreover,

Guo Tong, being the top king of the Class A Three Kings, was naturally much stronger than the average martial artist at that level.

One move to defeat him?

What a joke!

"If you can beat me in one move, I’ll leave the Thunder Sky Sect right now!"

Guo Tong didn’t believe it at all.

He thought Qin Chen’s words were just a joke.

"I think it’s best for you not to speak so absolutely right now; otherwise, you’ll have no way to back down later."

Qin Chen heard this and smiled faintly as he spoke.

"Back down? I want to see how you, who speaks such arrogant words, will back down!"

Guo Tong let out a cold laugh.

"Let’s start."

Qin Chen smiled indifferently.

Guo Tong’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Then, in an instant, the cultivation power in his body burst forth.

Numerous disciples from the Four Institutes stepped back, their faces slightly startled.

"Guo Tong’s strength seems to have grown even stronger!"

"With that kind of power, he could definitely be considered an Inner Courtyard Disciple!"

"Yeah, I bet Qin Chen is going to be embarrassed!"

The Four Institute disciples discussed among themselves,

thoroughly amazed by the strength that Guo Tong had displayed.

"You can’t even catch my single punch!"

Guo Tong sneered.

Then, he directly threw a punch at Qin Chen.

Facing Guo Tong’s punch, Qin Chen didn’t move an inch.

Whoosh!

In that moment, Guo Tong felt a flash of light beneath his eyes,

Guo Tong touched his nose.

And came away with a hand covered in blood.

What happened?

Guo Tong stood frozen, seemingly unable to comprehend what had just taken place.

At this moment,

aside from Guo Tong, the other Four Institute disciples also didn’t understand.

All they saw was a flash of light.

Then, Guo Tong’s nose was cut.

However,

While the Four Institute disciples were baffled, deans like Lin Hetong saw everything very clearly.

And they also understood exactly what had just happened.

"Sword Intent! That was Sword Intent!"

Lin Hetong’s face was filled with shock, his heart utterly astounded.

Qin Chen’s face carried a cold killing aura.

"This slash, if I had moved a bit further, you would already be dismembered."

"Considering we are both disciples of the Thunder Sky Sect, I didn’t strike to kill. Here, as a fellow sect member, I should still warn you."

"At all times, one must know that there is always someone stronger, a sky beyond the sky."

Qin Chen spoke with a detached expression.

Guo Tong was drenched in sweat.

Only now did he realize what had just happened,

and he didn’t doubt the truth of Qin Chen’s words for a second,

because he had indeed not seen Qin Chen’s blade before his nose was cut.

One more bit forward, and half of his head would have been sliced off.

The gap was too great!

At this time,

Guo Tong’s skepticism about Qin Chen dissipated in an instant.

Too strong! Qin Chen was too strong!

He was no match for Qin Chen at all.

At this moment.

Guo Tong’s gaze toward Qin Chen suddenly changed.

"Thank you for sparing my life."

Guo Tong clasped his fists toward Qin Chen, completely convinced in his heart.

Everyone around was stunned.

Especially Yuen Ying, who couldn’t believe it at all.

How long had it been?

In such a short period of time, Qin Chen had actually become so much stronger.

"Qin Chen!"

At that moment, Yuen Ying suddenly roared.

Qin Chen frowned slightly and looked at Yuen Ying.

"Weren’t you the one who said that once you enter the Inner Courtyard, the first person you would challenge would be Brother Soong Kaijie? Brother Soong Kaijie will return in three days."

"How about it, do you dare to challenge Brother Soong Kaijie in front of so many of us now?"

Yuen Ying had wanted to see Qin Chen make a fool of himself.

However, Qin Chen had repeatedly exceeded his expectations, which infuriated him greatly.

Qin Chen had killed his father, so Yuen Ying harbored a killing aura toward Qin Chen.

But he lacked the strength.

Therefore, he wanted to find someone stronger to subdue Qin Chen.

"Qin Chen, Soong Kaijie is the second-ranked disciple in the Inner Courtyard, you don’t have to challenge him now, even if you do."

Sheng Xuefu spoke up from the side.

Many people nodded in agreement.

Indeed.

Although Qin Chen had shown great strength now.

But Soong Kaijie was still the second-ranked disciple in the Inner Courtyard, with strength second only to Mon Tianran.

"In three days, tell Soong Kaijie that I will replace him and become the second in the Inner Courtyard!" Qin Chen said with a light smile.

Soong Kaijie had sent people to trouble him time and again!

It was time to settle this grudge.

"He’s actually going to challenge Soong Kaijie?"

"Madness! Madness!"

"Even though he’s stronger than Guo Tong, Soong Kaijie is the second in the Inner Courtyard! Although he’s just barely qualified to enter the Inner Courtyard, isn’t this challenge too soon?"

"Dean Dai, Dean Lin, according to the bet, now, you must acknowledge the existence of our Saint Institute, and the Demon Beast Inner Crystals obtained by Class A this time all belong to us!"

Qin Chen looked at the pile of Demon Beast Inner Crystals on Class A’s side, his heart boiling with excitement.

So many Demon Beast Inner Crystals, just looking at them made him feel delighted.

Upon hearing this, Dai Yinrui and Lin Hetong exchanged glances, their faces looking very unpleasant.

After all, they had agreed to this in front of so many people. Although they were extremely reluctant to acknowledge it, they had to do so now.

"Then, from today on, our Thunder Sky Sect will not just have the Four Institutes and Inner Courtyard, but five institutes!"

Sheng Xuefu was all smiles, clearly delighted.

"Sorry about that."

Qin Chen gestured apologetically to Guo Tong.

Then, he began to gather the Demon Beast Inner Crystals one by one into the God Devouring Crystal.

Guo Tong felt like his heart was bleeding.

He remembered the words Qin Chen had said before; it seemed as if the game had just begun, and the outcome of the game had already been predetermined.

"It’s all your fault, why did you agree to it?"

One of the Class A disciples started to complain.

"Yeah, we didn’t agree to it, Guo Tong, you have to compensate us for these Demon Beast Inner Crystals!"

As someone started to agitate, the other Class A disciples also began to join in.

Guo Tong’s face looked incredibly ugly, his heart burning with anger.

"Fine! It’s just Demon Beast Inner Crystals, I’ll compensate you!"

With that,

Guo Tong could no longer restrain himself and turned his head to leave.

After taking all the Demon Beast Inner Crystals from Class A’s side, Qin Chen was in a great mood.

Although these Demon Beast Inner Crystals were not of a high level compared to the demon beasts he had slain, they were plentiful in number, which was not bad.

"Alright, from now on, you are a disciple of my Inner Courtyard."

At that time, Dai Yinrui walked over.

Qin Chen looked up.

"Who said I wanted to enter the Inner Courtyard?"

Qin Chen asked with an innocent face.

Upon hearing this, Dai Yinrui was immediately taken aback.

What the heck!

The rest of the Four Institutes’ disciples were inwardly screaming as well.

What exactly was happening? Was this really the Inner Courtyard that countless people were desperate to enter?

Why are they all rushing to reject it?
