Omm!

Mighty Genesis Qi erupted from Chen Beifeng’s body like a storm, creating waves in the lake.

His Genesis Qi foundation of 15 million stars drew stunned gazes from the audience.

No one thought that Chen Beifeng would conceal his strength so well. Besides Lu Xiao, everybody of the Fire Pavilion was equally shocked.

“Chen Beifeng’s wind spirit rune has reached 80% completion?” Wang Chen was the first to cry out in disbelief. It should be said that only a handful of people of the Fire Pavilion had completed 80% of the wind spirit rune. Even Wang Chen had only just reached that level.

He had looked down on Chen Beifeng in the past, but he now understood that if Chen Beifeng hadn’t concealed his strength, he might not win against him in a battle.

From the other two pavilions, similar clamours broke out. It was clear how shocking it was to see Chen Beifeng’s true strength.

On the Forest Pavilion’s side, the burly man called Jiang Man climbed back up from the lake. Covering his mouth, he cried out, “Chen Beifeng concealed his strength so well.”

Mu Qingyan’s face looked extremely solemn as she sighed, “Ye Bingling is going to lose.”

“As I said before, in the Wind Pavilion, only the guy dressing up as a pig to eat the tiger can beat Chen Beifeng.” Mu Liu shrugged.

Hearing this, Mu Qingyan still looked doubtfully in Zhou Yuan’s direction. If anyone else had said this, she wouldn’t have believed it at all, but Mu Liu’s perception was always accurate, so she was in a state of half believing and half doubting.

At the highest point of the audience, Chi Jing was staring emotionlessly at the scene. “Someone of the advanced Divine Dwelling stage is actually able to seal Genesis marks obtained from daily practice in the body, and so perfectly? This is indeed very interesting.”

Sect master Xuan Kun narrowed his eyes vacantly as though he didn’t hear what Chi Jing said.

“It seems it’s really necessary to cancel the pavilion master selection,” Chi Jing muttered to herself.

It was only then that sect master Xuan Kung’s eyes shot open, and with a smile, he responded, “Grand elder Chi Jing is still a little too young. If you were more serious, you would have already seen through that sealing technique.

“The pavilion master selection has already started, and it can’t be canceled. Otherwise it would be against the rules.”

Chi Jing swept a cold glance at the old man. “It’s still too early to be happy.”

Sect master Xuan Kun simply smiled and didn’t say anything more. He continued to keep his eyes half closed as though dozing off. From the situation, it was clear that Chen Beifeng had the upper hand.

Omm!

“Dragon Demon Drill!”

Chen Beifeng drew a deep breath, watching the giant white jade palm slam down from the sky. Suddenly, Genesis Qi of the universe rapidly poured into his body through his nose, causing his body to expand. Finally, he opened his mouth wide.

Wu! Wu!

Dark-yellow wind similar to a roaring yellow dragon spewed from his mouth. It bared its teeth and brandished its claws as it spun frantically. Its sharp head was like a giant drill, tearing the void apart.

The yellow wind dragon whizzed forth and collided head-on with the giant white jade palm that was pressing down.

Chi!

An ear-piercing noise rang out during the collision, causing even the void at the collision point to crack and shatter.

But that collision only lasted for a dozen breaths before the giant white jade palm was marred with multiple cracks.

Ye Bingling’s beautiful face changed dramatically.

Boom!

Before she could instill more Genesis Qi into the palm, the wind drill erupted with terrifying power. It pierced and tore the giant white jade palm apart.

Roar!

There appeared to be a dragon roar coming from inside the wind drill. As the tip twisted and shattered the void, it rapidly appeared in front of Ye Bingling.

Ye Bingling gritted her teeth and rapidly retreated.

Upon seeing this, Chen Beifeng twisted his lips in a sneer. He swiftly changed the sealing technique, and the speed of the wind drill sharply increased. The next moment, like a violent wind dragon, the drill slammed into Ye Bingling’s beautiful body, and violent Genesis Qi shot into the sky, producing shock waves visible to the naked eye.

Puchi!

Ye Bingling suddenly spewed out a jet of blood from the impact. The Genesis Qi around her body rapidly faded, and her beautiful body plunged from the sky.

The outcome of the battle had already been decided.

Around the lake, countless sympathetic cries rang out.

A beam of golden Genesis Qi caught the rapidly falling Ye Bingling and then swept her back to where everyone of the Wind Pavilion was.

“Senior sister Ye, are you all right?” Yi Qiushi quickly came over to catch her and asked worriedly.

Ye Bingling’s beautiful face was deathly pale, and the usual icily arrogant look in her eyes had long faded. She looked to be in a trance, and she evidently hadn’t recovered from the shock of being defeated by Chen Beifeng.

“Senior sister Ye, it’s all right,” Yi Qiushui comforted.

Ye Bingling’s eyes gradually turned red. She quickly lowered her head and uttered in a hoarse voice, “I have let everyone down, I’m not good enough.”

She had been preparing for this battle and working incredibly hard for a long time. She hadn’t expected to see this result.

It was silent all around, and the atmosphere seemed extremely gloomy. Now that Ye Bingling had lost, how could they compete with Chen Beifeng for the position of pavilion master?

In the middle of the lake, Chen Beifeng hovered above the square with Genesis Qi and mockingly looked over at their side. “If deputy pavilion master Ye has no strength to fight anymore, give up.”

Ye Bingling clenched her teeth and pushed away Yi Qiushui. “I haven’t lost. I can still fight.”

She was stubbornly unwilling to admit defeat. She knew the severity of the consequences if Chen Beifeng became the Wind Pavilion’s pavilion master.

She had only taken two steps forward when the injuries within her body caused blood to overflow the corners of her mouth. The Genesis Qi around her body became extremely weak.

But it was then that a palm grasped Ye Bingling’s shoulder from behind, forcing her to stop.

Ye Bingling slightly struggled but found that she couldn’t get rid of the hand. She turned her head around to see Zhou Yuan standing behind her with a smiling expression.

“Senior sister Ye, your task is to test his trump cards, and you have already done enough,” Zhou Yuan comforted with a smile.

Ye Bingling bit her lips.

“Also, senior sister Ye, you are already well known. Let me appear and earn some fame, okay?”

Ye Bingling didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Did this guy think this place was a theatre? If he wasn’t strong enough, he would only embarrass himself. How would he earn any fame?

The surrounding people also looked at Zhou Yuan doubtfully. They could tell that Zhou Yuan wanted to go on the stage.

Even Ye Bingling couldn’t win against Chen Beifeng, so what could Zhou Yuan, who was only at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage, do?

However, Ye Bingling’s sadness faded a bit after Zhou Yuan’s amusing behaviour. She stared at Zhou Yuan with her beautiful eyes, and finally, she sighed, “If you can’t beat him, don’t force it. Even if Chen Beifeng becomes the pavilion master, he only has a few advantages at best.”

Zhou Yuan nodded with a smile, then strode forward and passed Ye Bingling.

Countless bewildered gazes shifted onto Zhou Yuan.

Above the square, Chen Beifeng chuckled, “Oh? Zhou Yuan, are you planning to take the stage at the time of crisis so you can put on a wonderful show of reversing the tides?”

Immediately, his smile faded and his eyes grew icy cold.

“Unfortunately, you have to ask if I will agree first.”
