Chapter 224: Chapter 224: Riding the Tiger

At this moment, the Supreme Sect Master hesitated as well.

The competition had changed its nature.

It had become a small clique’s revenge and suppression against Jiang Fan.

He tried to suggest: “How about canceling the competition?”

“If this spreads, it will be said that my Supreme Sect disciples are too petty.”

An elder opposed: “It’s too late to stop now.”

...

“Wang Yunge represents the top level of our Supreme Sect.”

“Such a miserable defeat, if no other disciple redeems the situation, how will outsiders view our Supreme Sect?”

“Will they say that our Supreme Sect is just an empty facade?”

The other elders also supported continuing the battle.

Even if it resulted in a narrow-minded disciple’s reputation, they couldn’t let the Supreme Sect’s prestige fall.

The Supreme Sect Master thought it made sense and gave the referee a look.

The referee felt some sympathy for Jiang Fan.

Unfortunately, compelled by the situation, Jiang Fan had to fight.

He kindly reminded: “If you’re tired, you can rest for a while before continuing.”

After two consecutive intense battles, he worried that Jiang Fan would suffer against Li Shiqian.

Jiang Fan cupped his fists: “Thank you for your concern, referee. I’m fine. We can start at any time.”

The referee nodded and looked at Li Shiqian.

The latter slightly raised her long, snow-white neck: “Don’t look at me. No preparation is needed to fight him!”

The referee nodded again.

He stepped off the stage and said: “Begin!”

Li Shiqian looked at Jiang Fan calmly and said: “At most, three moves, and you’ll roll off the stage.”

With that, she took the initiative to attack.

“Star Picking Finger!”

What she utilized was a set of Finger Techniques.

As soon as she struck, it caused the air to explode, bursting with a powerful penetrating force.

Jiang Fan’s face slightly changed: “Earth-level Finger Technique?”

“No wonder you’re so confident.”

“Since that’s the case, I’ll also use my full Body Technique.”

Thus.

He immediately shouted in a deep voice: “Phoenix Blood Treasure Body! Activate!”

His body immediately emitted crackling sounds, like frying beans.

This was the sound of his bones moving.

Immediately afterward, the blood flow in his body accelerated several times.

His skin quickly turned blood-red.

It was like he was on fire!

His strength, speed, response, and senses all rose by several levels in an instant!

Li Shiqian’s seemingly lightning-fast Finger Techniques.

At this moment, appeared to him as if slowed down, like an ordinary person pointing at him.

The power of his physique poured out like a floodgate opening.

No more hesitation!

Jiang Fan decisively struck!

“Heavenly Battle Nine Forms! Sky Opening!”

With Phoenix Blood Treasure Body fully activated, along with the ultimate technique of the “Heavenly Battle Nine Forms.”

This was the limit of his Body Technique!

Let’s see if Li Shiqian could withstand it!

In an instant!

Jiang Fan turned into a mass of flames, rushing forward at an even faster speed.

His fist collided with the Finger Technique of the Earth-level Technique mid-air.

Ah!

Instantly, a scream came from Li Shiqian’s mouth.

Her index finger was bent and obviously broken!

At the same time, the flame-like fist, carrying the surging power of Sky Opening, slammed into Li Shiqian’s chest!

Puff—

She immediately spat out a mouthful of blood mist.

Her tall body flew out like a paper doll, crashing heavily away.

Wang Yunge exclaimed: “Senior Sister Li!”

He hurriedly reached out to catch her.

But as he did, he felt like he was catching not a person.

But a falling mountain.

With a thud.

Li Shiqian’s body crashed into his arms like a piece of iron.

Knocking him to the ground as well.

A sweet metallic taste rose in his throat, and finally, he couldn’t hold it back, spraying out blood mist!

The whole place fell into a deathly silence!

One strike!

With just one strike, Jiang Fan had sent the third strongest in the Supreme Sect flying with a punch.

And additionally, caused the fourth-ranked Wang Yunge to spit blood!

What level of power was that punch?

After a long time.

Cheng Xiaoleng, whose eyes were wide open, let out a cheer: “He won, he won…”

Halfway through the cheer.

She quickly closed her mouth.

Because pairs of angry eyes were staring at her.

As a disciple of the Supreme Sect, she should be ashamed that someone from the Outer Sect won.

But she cheered instead!

Chai Yingrong’s mouth twitched, evidently, she also wanted to cheer, but she held back.

Yan Yuqing covered her face with both hands.

Underneath her hands was naturally a face full of ecstasy.

Through the gaps in her fingers, she looked at that fair-skinned, handsome, and elegant martial uncle.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled.

The Supreme Sect Master and all the elders fell into silence.

With just one move, Li Shiqian was disastrously defeated!

The disparity was so great that it was hard for them to accept.

An elder from before, who had clamored to redeem the situation, felt a bit regretful.

If he had known Li Shiqian would lose so disgracefully.

He should have stopped them from sparring just now.

Now, they were in a difficult situation.

Continuing was impossible, and disbanding the friendly match was also impossible!

He reluctantly asked: “Sect Master, what should we do now?”

The Supreme Sect Master, with a sullen face, said: “What else can we do?”

“Do you really want to let him leave the Supreme Sect just like that?”

He looked towards the stage, at the only remaining top expert, his prized disciple, Hua Xiangchen.

“Xiangchen, since you’re here, why don’t you go up and play a bit too.”

“Remember to show some restraint.”

Hua Xiangchen had long been unable to hold back!

Watching Jiang Fan’s reputation grow and Yan Yuqing’s admiration deepen.

It was more painful than killing him!

Why was it that someone without a Spirit Root could run rampant in the Supreme Sect and take away the admiration that belonged to him?

He immediately got up and swiftly moved to the stage.

First, he checked their injuries.

He found that Wang Yunge, cushioning Li Shiqian earlier, had sustained internal injuries.

And discovered that Li Shiqian had a broken finger.

Then, looking at Luo Tianjiao’s pitiful state.

His heart burned with anger.

Was Jiang Fan bullying the Supreme Sect because he thought no one was there?

He walked onto the stage with his sword.

Containing his anger, his face showed a gentle smile like a spring breeze.

“Junior Brother Jiang, it’s hard to refuse the master’s order. Please grant me your guidance.”

Jiang Fan’s gaze revealed a penetrating look.

He bluntly pierced through: “You’ve long wanted to come up and teach me a lesson, haven’t you?”

Hua Xiangchen’s smile briefly froze before continuing: “Junior Brother, you must be joking.”

“I can’t even worry enough about your safety.”

Jiang Fan sneered: “If you truly wanted to stop them from bullying.”

“Would they have been able to come on stage?”

Hua Xiangchen was the top disciple, the Sect Master’s first disciple.

Wang Yunge and Li Shiqian respected him greatly.

If Hua Xiangchen had stopped them, would there have been Wang Yunge threatening Yan Yuqing and Jiang Fan being forced to fight?

Everything was encouraged and supported by him behind the scenes.

Now showing a good guy’s appearance, trying to make Jiang Fan lower his guard?

This little trick, Jiang Fan saw through at a glance.

Hua Xiangchen’s facial muscles twitched a few times, suppressing his anger, he said calmly:

“Junior Brother Jiang, I don’t understand what you’re saying.”

“Just one question, are you accepting my challenge or not?”

If he didn’t accept.

At the very least, outsiders would think Jiang Fan feared Hua Xiangchen and didn’t dare to fight.

It would somewhat restore the Supreme Sect’s image.

Of course, accepting would be the best.

Hua Xiangchen, with absolute strength, would defeat him harshly, further solidifying the Supreme Sect’s powerful image.

Jiang Fan didn’t think much.

Having fought to this point.

There was no reason not to fight Hua Xiangchen, who was behind all this.

If a fight was to be had!

Then fight to the end!

Defeat all the elite disciples of the Supreme Sect!

His gaze became sharp.

He drew the Black Sword on his back with a backhand.

A captivating Sword Qi resounded with a clang!

The sharp Sword Light directly pointed at Hua Xiangchen!

From his mouth, he uttered a resounding word!

“Fight!”
