Chapter 19


“He hasn’t even stepped into the Forbidden Stage, yet you dare to call him the number one in the outer sect?”


“I admit that Senior Brother Lu Zhen is very strong, but he really doesn’t have the right to be the number one in the outer sect compared to Senior Brother Su Chen!”


“Lu Zhen? The number one in the outer sect? How dare he! Have you asked Senior Brother Su Chen?”


“Whether it’s appearance or strength, Senior Brother Su Chen is way better than Lu Zhen!”


“As long as Senior Brother Su Chen is in the outer sect, no one else is eligible to be the number one in the outer sect!”


“That’s right. Whether it’s appearance, breadth of mind, talent, or strength, Lu Zhen is inferior to Senior Brother Su Chen. He is not worthy of the t.i.tle of the number one in the outer sect.”


“I didn’t want to frustrate you guys, but you are too arrogant and high-profile!”



The junior brothers and sisters behind He Jing also spoke up to defend Su Chen.


Lu Zhen’s supporters’ expressions changed when they saw this.


They never expected Su Chen to have so many supporters.


These junior brothers and sisters were arguing and riposting, defending their Senior Brother Su Chen.


Elder Xie’s mouth twitched when he saw this.


Was this the influence of personal charm?


Lu Zhen’s supporters did not continue to argue with them.


There was no other reason than that they had no chance of winning against so many junior brothers and sisters.


Especially those junior sisters, their verbal fighting power could not be underestimated.


[Breakthrough to the Qi Sea Realm at any time: 10/150]


[Breakthrough to the Qi Sea Realm at any time: 11/150]



[Breakthrough to the Qi Sea Realm at any time: 89/150]


[Breakthrough to the Qi Sea Realm at any time: 90/150]


The characters on the virtual interface in front of Su Chen jumped rapidly. In the blink of an eye, there were 90 people.


This was the first time it had reached such an astonishing speed.


The main reason was that there were too many junior brothers and sisters who had received his help and guidance.


When they heard that Su Chen was going to partic.i.p.ate in the outer sect trial, they all came to support him.


When they heard Cao Yun’s brags again, they agreed with him from the bottom of their hearts.


Therefore, the number increased very quickly.


[Breakthrough to the Qi Sea Realm at any time: 149/150]


[Breakthrough to the Qi Sea Realm at any time: 150/150]


Buzz…


The moment the progress bar was full, the virtual interface disappeared.


Immediately after that, a ma.s.s of extremely pure energy gushed out of Su Chen’s dantian.


His intuition told him that as long as he released this energy, he could instantly break through to the Qi Sea Realm!


The energy in Su Chen’s dantian was similar to the mysterious energy in his mind.


The only difference was that he could use the energy in his dantian at any time.


However, he could do nothing to move the energy in his mind.


Su Chen was not in a hurry to break through to the Qi Sea Realm.


After all.


The first and second tests of the outer sect trial had a definite requirement for partic.i.p.ants’ cultivation. One had to be in the ninth level of the Qi Gathering Realm.


However, there was no such requirement for the third test. Breaking through at the last minute in the third test was within the limitations of the rules.


Su Chen had not started the trial yet. If he chose to break through to the Qi Sea Realm now, he might not even be able to illuminate the crystal ball in the first test.


At that time, he would be considered a failure of the trial!


“It’s starting! It’s finally time for the talent test!”


The voice that was filled with antic.i.p.ation and nervousness drew everyone’s attention back to Lu Zhen.


Buzz…


The mysterious stone tablet emitted a hazy light that shrouded Lu Zhen.


Four large golden words slowly appeared on the surface of the tablet: Top-Grade Upper-Cla.s.s!


“Top-grade talent!”


“Senior Brother Lu Zhen has top-grade talent!”


“Hahaha, it’s even higher than I expected!”


“Senior Brother Lu Zhen’s talent is two levels higher than Senior Brother Liu Yang’s!”


“Top grade upper cla.s.s! It has been a long time since we saw a top-grade talent.”



Lu Zhen’s supporters cheered.


An outsider would think that they were tested out to have top-grade upper-cla.s.s talent.


On the Trial Peak.


Watching this scene, Liu Yang clenched his fists tightly, but he quickly released them.


He felt very bad about this result.


His talent was only top grade lower cla.s.s, but Lu Zhen’s talent was two whole levels higher than his.


Although everyone previously regarded both he and Lu Zhen as geniuses of the same level, he knew that from today onwards, as long as he was in the Great Mystery Sect, he would forever be inferior to Lu Zhen.


In the arena.


Lu Zhen still had a confident smile on his face.


He slowly sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to comprehend.


Buzz…


More hazy lights shone down.


Very quickly.


Amid the whispers of the crowd, a few new characters slowly appeared on the surface of the tablet: Black-Level Lower-Rank Star Wind Palm!


“Black level…”


“The black-level martial art! It’s actually a black-level martial art!”


“The top-grade upper-cla.s.s talent is indeed amazing!”


“No, it’s not over yet!”


A cry of alarm rang out.


Everyone’s eyes once again focused on the mysterious stone tablet.


A second line of words appeared on the mysterious stone tablet: Yellow-Level Upper-Rank Mountain Shaking Fist!


On the Trial Peak.


Yang Liu’s face turned pale at this scene.


Not only did Lu Zhen comprehend a black-level lower-rank martial art, but he also comprehended the yellow-level upper-rank martial art that Liu Yang had just comprehended, Mountain Shaking Fist!


This result clearly showed the difference in talent between Liu Yang and Lu Zhen.


“Two martial arts! He actually comprehended two types of martial arts!”


“Over the years, there have been very few disciples who are able to do this in the outer sect trials!”


“This is a top-grade upper-cla.s.s talent!”


“Who in the entire outer sect can do this?”


Under the stone tablet.


Lu Zhen listened to the undisguised exclamations of his fellow disciples, the confident smile on his face even wider.


“It’s not over yet.”


Lu Zhen murmured softly.


Boom!


In the next moment.


There was a sudden eruption and fluctuation of aura from his body.


“He… What is he doing?”


“The breakthrough!”


“Senior Brother Lu Zhen is about to break through!”


“Brother Lu Zhen is about to break through to the Qi Sea Realm!”


“If he chooses to break through now, doesn’t he need the Sea Transformation Pill?”


“Hehe, I told you before, Senior Brother Lu Zhen is just suppressing his cultivation level. As long as he wants, he can break through to the Qi Sea Realm at any time!”


“With Senior Brother Lu Zhen’s talent, do you think he needs the Sea Transformation Pill?”


“Why did he choose to break through at this moment?”


An outer sect disciple who had just joined the Great Mystery Sect asked with a puzzled expression.


“When you break through a major realm, your mind will be clear and you will enter a mysterious state. It is very suitable for comprehending cultivation methods and martial arts. However, this opportunity is fleeting. Senior Brother Lu Zhen is prepared to seize this opportunity to comprehend another cultivation method or martial art,” a Level Six outer sect disciple explained.


“Wow! Amazing! Comprehending two martial arts hasn’t reached his limit…”


“Of course! In the hearts of many people, Senior Brother Lu Zhen is the well-deserved number one of the outer sect!”


“Yes! Senior Brother Lu Zhen is the well-deserved number one in the outer sect!”


“Now, let’s see who dares to doubt that?”
