Chapter 197: Another Encounter with the Third Prince
"That's impossible! How could it be? His knife method is only average . How is it so powerful?"
Yun Xiao's confidence had been shattered . However hard he tried, all of his sword movements were cracked by Jiang Chen's scimitar .
They were in the same state . The surprising result had attracted people's attention and discussion .
Those in and beneath the Gathering Yuan State were only watching the competition for fun . Those in the Mental Wander State began to analyze the situation .
Judging from their current performances, Jiang Chen would definitely win, but how had he done it?
Speaking of martial arts techniques, Jiang Chen's knife method wasn't so wonderful . In terms of state, their states were close, but Yun Xiao was at an overwhelming disadvantage when they fought .
"Give your sword to someone else . I hope you won't bring more shame to swordsmen in the future . "
Jiang Chen thought it was time . He didn't want to keep playing with Yun Xiao, so his knife movement suddenly became extremely intense . Yun Xiao's defense completely collapsed . The class-four spiritual sword flew away . He was sent flying and fell out of the ring .
Jiang Chen won and advanced to the next round .
"Meng Feifei, what do you think? Are you satisfied?"
Outside the ring, Chu Luo raised her eyebrows . She was beaming .
"How did he make it?" Meng Feifei was as confused as the others .
Chu Luo kept smiling, but said nothing in order to remain mysterious .
"Brother?" On the other side, Huangfu Ming was very nervous . It looked like Jiang Chen wasn't as bad as they had thought .
"Don't panic . He held his strength back intentionally to make people look down on his knife method, but he saw through his rival's movement with his instinct as a practitioner . I guess he's mastered the full spirit of knife," Huangfu Hua sneered . He still looked arrogant .
After Jiang Chen reached the second round, a great disturbance started in another ring, and it was the first death in this competition with no limits .
"Third Prince! Yang Fan already threw in the towel and wanted to quit the competition . Why did you kill him?"

The cause of disturbance was that someone was accusing the Third Prince!
It was the dead guy's friend, who was irritated . His eyes were red due to sadness and anger .
"Haha, he didn't say 'I quit . ' How would I know whether it was just a trick? Maybe he intended to deceive me!" The Third Prince was laughing violently . He didn't take his rival's death seriously at all .
"Yang Fan did throw his knife away . He was defenseless . If that didn't mean 'I quit', then what would?" That guy was mad enough to spit nails . He wanted justice for his friend, regardless of the possible consequences of offending the Third Prince .
"That only means he was stupid!"
The Third Prince shrugged his shoulders and pointed at the guy . He said coldly, "If you're not convinced, you come into the ring! I'll kill you all the same!"
If it weren't a special day like this, the Third Prince would have shot an arrow at him directly to punish him for such an offense .
The guy was about to talk back, but someone beside him stopped him .
"Hum . "
The Third Prince flicked his sleeves and clasped his hands behind his back . He bellowed, "Anyone else?!"
In the following rounds, none of his rivals fought with him . They surrendered the fight as soon as they went into the ring .
The Third Prince also advanced to the next round .
"How boring," the Third Prince shouted apathetically and jumped out of the ring .
Sitting on the palace wall, the emperor frowned slightly at this scene . He said unhappily, "The Third Prince is still the same . He wants to win too much . "
"Heh, every practicer has his own character and specialty . Powerful men are never the same," the old man in the gray robe said casually .
The emperor eased up when he heard the old man's remark .
In the square, Jiang Chen was gazing at the Third Prince and thinking to himself, "You're still so arrogant . I'll settle my business with you today . "
"Apprentice brother, the Third Prince's state has improved . He is now in the completed late stage," Chu Luo told him in a low voice so Meng Feifei couldn't hear .

"I know . "
"The Third Prince's martial arts technique is a mystery, since he always kills his rivals, with or without reason . Outsiders don't even know what his weapon is, a bow or a spear," Chu Luo said .
Jiang Chen understood what she was trying to say . What if he wasn't as powerful as the Third Prince? He had also thought about it .
However, his hatred for the Third Prince was so strong that he was willing to pay any price to take revenge on the latter, including his life . He had to try his best in any case .
"Maybe I can exert that secret method," Jiang Chen thought to himself . He had thought of a secret method that could enhance his fighting ability when he was being chased by Mo Li in the Realm of Beasts .
Later, his state had enhanced and his strength improved, so he had forgotten about it for a while .
On the other hand, he was hesitant because the secret method was so astounding that he didn't want to expose it prematurely .
Eh?
Jiang Chen noticed someone gazing at him . He looked up and found it was Princess Fragrance from the sailing ship .
The fight just now could have helped her tumble to the truth . Maybe she had realized Jiang Chen's good intentions the day before, but Liu Peng and Yun Fan, who had just lost, were still on the ship . This meant she hadn't made up her mind .
Jiang Chen wasn't interested in this princess at all .
He started to look around for disciples from the Natural Law School .
As Chu Luo had mentioned, none of them were worth any attention .
Li Xue'er was spellbound . Li Qin and Tang Ke were dead . Mu Zhenchuan's ten holy points were gone .
All these things had to do with Jiang Chen .
Jiang Chen touched his nose when he thought about this . He was thinking he would owe a lot to the school if he didn't show great performances that day .
Suddenly, Jiang Chen saw a familiar figure and gave a warm smile .
It was Wen Xin .
She was standing in one of the rings . She had achieved the Mental Wander State . Although she was only in the beginning of the preliminary stage, she had defeated three rivals in a row .
She was lucky . Her last rival was a Gathering Yuan State . She made it into the next round too .
Wen Xin jumped out of the ring happily and waved at some people outside the square .
Jiang Chen looked over and saw they were all from the Redcloud Peak, Meng Hao, Jiang Lu, Jiang Feng, and more . Even Fan Tu and Gao Yue were there .
Uncle Fan, mother?
Jiang Chen was surprised to see them . He thought they had gone back to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, so he had never expected to see them there .
Could they know I would be here? But that's impossible…
Oh, yeah, the leader has the Abacus of Good Fortune . He could tell whether I was dead or alive . He must have told my mother about it .
But…
Jiang Chen looked up into the air . There was a pagoda floating there where people of the Natural Law School were sitting .
Meng Hao and Wen Xin were disciples of the Natural Law School, and he was a key disciple on the Talent List . Theoretically speaking, these two and his clansmen should be on the pagoda too, instead of standing among the crowd .
Jiang Chen asked Chu Luo to ask around about it .
Soon Chu Luo came back and told him, "One of the grand supreme elders that led the Natural Law School's team is Ning Haotian's master . "
Jiang Chen's puzzle was solved . This grand supreme elder was obviously pushing those of the Redcloud Peak aside .
"Who else is there?"
"The Medicine Elder, Elder Technique Impartation, and the leader of the Hall of Penal Law . "
"Great . "
A cold gleam showed in Jiang Chen's eyes . So long as he won a place, he would be able to ask that grand supreme elder to apologize to his clansmen .
