Chapter 42: Killing Feng Kuang, Hunting Down Blazing Academy and the Others
"Since he's discovered it, I must kill him quickly and shut his mouth forever."
Feng Kuang spread his wings, and the pair behind him grew slightly wider. The gale flowing around him erupted with an intensely piercing green light, enveloping his entire body within it.
"Fifth Soul Skill, Furious Tornado!"
The Wind Eagle screeched, spreading its wings to summon a gale that converged into a massive storm. It occupied the entire deathmatch stage and even showed signs of affecting the surrounding spectators.
Fortunately, at that moment, the Great Spirit Arena activated the deathmatch stage's defense mechanism. An energy barrier covered the entire arena, preventing Feng Kuang's attack from spreading outward.
The giant tornado was like a fierce beast, wanting to devour everything as it hurtled toward Chu Chen, instantly enveloping him. The wind blades sought to tear Chu Chen completely to shreds.
Boom!
Feng Kuang was positioned within the storm, erupting with a series of afterimages. Every strike carried the strongest killing intent. The sharpness of these wind blades was such that even an ordinary Soul King would likely have their flesh torn open instantly.
After all, the difference between each major Realm for a Soul Master was not just a small amount of strength!
"Destruction, die!" A look of madness surfaced on Feng Kuang's face as he descended from the sky, intending to crush Chu Chen.
The surrounding gale formed a natural barrier for Chu Chen at this moment, to the point where everyone outside the stage could no longer see the situation between him and Feng Kuang. They could only wait and hope that the hurricane would end quickly.
Chu Chen remained calm in the face of danger. Black-purple lightning condensed in his hand, and the will of destruction swirled around his body. He raised his hand, a dragon shadow forming in his palm, accompanied by a roaring dragon's cry.
With one strike, the entire arena fell silent.
Within the green hurricane, a flash of black-purple light suddenly erupted. Then, under the stunned gazes of countless people, that terrifying hurricane simply dissipated!
Or rather, it was blasted apart by Chu Chen.
Bang!
Feng Kuang crashed to the ground, staring ahead in utter disbelief at Chu Chen, who was completely unharmed, save for some slight tearing in his clothes.
"How is this possible!" Feng Kuang roared.
"Blazing Academy sent you, didn't they?"
The will of destruction surrounding Chu Chen had completely vanished, replaced by the familiar life energy.
With this immortal and indestructible aura of life, even if Chu Chen resisted Feng Kuang's attacks with his Physical Body alone, it was unlikely he could be harmed. His blood qi was towering, capable of birthing all things.
Chu Chen clenched his fist, his figure flashing past to appear in front of Feng Kuang. With a merciless punch, he sent Feng Kuang flying.
In such a critical situation, Feng Kuang finally couldn't hold back and erupted with his full strength. The aura of a Soul Emperor burst forth, causing everyone's expressions to change; this was clearly no Soul King!
"Sixth—"
Feng Kuang's voice stopped abruptly. Chu Chen didn't give him another chance. Having heavily injured him with the will of destruction earlier, that all-destroying aura had already corroded his body.
He wouldn't give him the chance to use his sixth Soul Skill. He grabbed Feng Kuang's head with one hand and slammed it into the ground. Even the hard surface of the deathmatch stage was shattered, and Feng Kuang's head instantly bled profusely.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Chu Chen held Feng Kuang's head like that, striking the ground three times in succession. Only after the latter stopped reacting did he kick him away, causing half of his body to explode.
Splat!
The mangled half of the body landed directly on the glass of the observation room where the Blazing Academy group was located. Chu Chen had discovered their position and didn't plan on being polite to them.
The match ended, and Chu Chen calmly walked off the stage.
This might have been the first time such a bloody scene had occurred in a deathmatch, and many people felt a chill down their spines.
This man called Destruction was truly cruel and decisive!
"What kind of Great Spirit Arena is this? Wasn't the match contestant Destruction entered a Soul King level deathmatch! That person just now was clearly a Soul Emperor!"
Someone took the lead in protesting.
"Yeah, are you guys really this irresponsible? Even if it's a deathmatch, letting a Soul Sect fight a Soul Emperor is too much!"
"Where is the organizer! Come out and explain! Otherwise, I'll expose your identity!"
Clearly, the crowd was beginning to riot. Although deathmatches had no rules and life or death didn't matter, this kind of behind-the-scenes manipulation—pitting opponents of such vastly different strengths against each other—was something the crowd could not tolerate!
"This kid, that was truly dangerous." In the stands, Dugu Bo smiled with relief and stood up to leave.
...
"Damn it! That guy was actually hiding his strength? How could even Feng Kuang not be his match?"
Late at night in Heaven Dou City, on a secluded street, the group from Blazing Academy was walking away quickly. They had left the Great Spirit Arena the moment Feng Kuang was killed.
"Feng Kuang, that useless trash! Now we have to find a way to explain this to Feng Xiaotian."
This somewhat unruly young girl was naturally Huo Wu of Blazing Academy, and the young man beside her was her brother, Huo Wushuang.
Huo Wu was furious. This time, not only had they failed to eliminate Destruction, but Kamikaze Academy would also hold them accountable. It would likely be difficult to explain.
"Everyone, where are you going?"
At the end of the street, Chu Chen appeared out of the darkness at some unknown time. His cold gaze stared straight at the Blazing Academy group. A chill permeated everyone, making them stop in their tracks involuntarily, feeling threatened.
"On the deathmatch stage, life and death are left to fate. Now that we've left the stage, do you still intend to go looking for trouble with others?"
Although Huo Wu was wary of Chu Chen's strength, they weren't on the deathmatch stage now. She didn't believe Chu Chen would attack so many of them by himself.
"Looking for trouble? You mean, you set a trap to kill me, but because I was lucky enough to survive, it becomes me looking for trouble?"
Chu Chen gave a mocking smile. A light bloomed from beneath his wide black robe, and a golden Blue Silver Emperor pierced through space, even carrying the sound of breaking air, as it instantly blew through the chest of the person beside Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang.
"Even if I want to look for trouble, what can you do about it?"
Having killed one person casually, Chu Chen stepped forward toward Huo Wu and the others.
It was true that he was used to hiding his own strength, but when people wanted to kill him, if he just swallowed his anger like this...
Wouldn't that be too pathetic?
"You were the one who killed our Blazing Academy's person first." Huo Wu also condensed her Soul Power. Several people released their Martial Souls together, intending to attack Chu Chen.
Chu Chen laughed, his smile full of mockery.
"Interesting. I remember you just said a minute ago that life and death are left to fate, didn't you?"
Chu Chen wasted no more words. The golden Blue Silver Emperor pierced out again. In the dark night, the Blue Silver Emperor appeared so conspicuous, like a streak of golden light, once again penetrating a person's chest.
This was the current sharpness of the Blue Silver Emperor. Such piercing power was something even some attack system Martial Souls couldn't match, and this was the manifestation of the Blue Silver Emperor condensing life force to the extreme.
How did that saying go again?
When you stack stats to the extreme, your life, defense, and attack all go up!
