A brief, deathly silence was followed by an eruption of discussion that boomed like a volcano. The roar of the crowd instantly engulfed the entire Seven-Star Platform.
"He won? Brother Chen won!"
"Mid-stage Astral Force, defeating someone at the Perfection Realm! This... Am I dreaming?"
"Three Stances Fusion, and that incredibly powerful Body Refining Technique... To think Brother Chen was hiding his strength so well!"
.....
Most of the disciples' gazes were fixed on the figure on the stage, their faces filled with shock.
In the area where the Xu Wang Mountain disciples had gathered, Qiao Hongyun rubbed his eyes hard and growled at the equally dumbfounded Shen Xiuyong beside him, "Old Shen! Did you see that?! Chen Qing... he's actually gotten this strong! Even Han Xiong was defeated by his spear!"
His voice trembled with excitement.
Shen Xiuyong let out a long breath. "I saw..."
He looked at Chen Qing on the stage, his eyes filled with complex emotion.
