Chapter 73 I thought you were so strong, but you're nothing special after all.
Du Wang's move may seem casual, but he showed no sign of underestimating or being careless.
This palm strike used all of his strength.
The candidates ahead of him couldn't withstand his attack at all.
Even if they don't die, they will be seriously injured.
with no exceptions.
Furthermore, as he made his move, his vital points were already covered by true energy, leaving no opening whatsoever.
In his view, he was in perfect safety.
A strong wind blew in my face.
Chen Ye neither dodged nor avoided, but crossed his arms to block to the side.
With a muffled bang, a shockwave exploded, but Chen Ye remained completely still.
The expected scene of the other party vomiting blood did not occur.
Du Wang's sinister smile suddenly froze on his face.
He looked down and saw that a layer of light golden transparent keratin had appeared on Chen Ye's skin, firmly blocking his full-force palm strike.
The sensation from his palm was like hitting a hard rock or striking a huge nail, making it difficult to push it any further.
Chen Ye slowly raised his face from under his arms, which were covering his face, his expression calm and undisturbed.
At this point, after being tempered by the combined skill of one sword and three parts sword intent, and having undergone seven consecutive transformations, the strength and toughness of his flesh and blood had reached a level far exceeding that of ordinary people.
The opponent may appear to be large, but in reality, it is mostly stiff, dead muscle, and the power it exerts is only in a momentary burst.
His cultivation level was also below his.
The quality of the reborn product was much worse than his.
Ah!
Chen Ye could clearly feel that the immense force that had attacked was rapidly weakening after he had blocked it.
"Is this all you've got?"
Du Wang was taken aback.
He never expected that a candidate would ask him such a question after enduring his attack, nor did he understand the weight behind Chen Ye's question.
"you……"
Before Du Wang could finish speaking, he saw Chen Ye suddenly smile.
A dark shadow rapidly magnified in his pupils.
Chen Ye approached him at an alarming speed, followed by a sharp whooshing sound, and an irresistible force slammed into his chest.
boom!
Du Wang was blasted into the air by the violent force, and he had to take several steps back before regaining his footing.
"How dare you!"
He flew into a rage, and swiftly raised both arms, like iron clamps, to strike Chen Ye's head.
Before he could even touch his opponent, Chen Ye had already closed in on him again, raising both fists!
A sharp sword intent condensed on his fists, and the true energy within his body was as hot as molten lava, bursting out from Chen Ye's fists.
boom!
The intense sword intent exploded with a roar.
Chen Ye's punch carried terrifying speed and explosive power as he thrust both fists forward, slamming them heavily into Du Wang's chest.
boom!
Du Wang crashed into the wall, cracking the stone bricks and sending dust falling, raising a layer of dust mist inside the training room.
The wall was even slightly dented in the very center from the punch.
Du Wang stared wide-eyed as Chen Ye's right hand, fingers clasped together like a knife, crackled with a sharp, twisted edge, carrying a chilling edge, slashed at his legs.
Before he could even react, a tearing pain shot through his legs, and they went limp, unable to exert any strength.
Chen Ye released his grip and took two steps back.
Du Wang's legs felt like they had been ligaments torn, making it impossible for him to stand. He lost his balance and fell uncontrollably toward Chen Ye.
Chen Ye seized an opportunity, thrusting his knee upwards, transforming it into a whistling blade that slammed into Chen Ye's jaw.
"ah!!!"
The intense internal energy and the sharp sword intent mingled together, exploding completely on his knee.
Du Wang let out a terrible scream and collapsed to the ground, his face covered in blood.
The training room fell completely silent.
Siji, standing to the side, stared in disbelief at Chen Ye, who had knocked Du Wang down with just a few punches.
At this moment, he exuded an intense killing intent, which was extremely chilling.
"Oh..." Chen Ye looked at Du Wang, who was lying on the ground, still convulsing and struggling, with disappointment, and sneered, "I thought you were so strong, but it turns out you're nothing special."
At this point, the outcome was already decided.
Chen Ye didn't stop. Instead, he stepped forward, grabbed Du Wang by the hair, pulled him up, and whispered, "Did someone send you to kill me?"
"Is it the Gao family, the Liu family, the Xie family, or...?"
"The Feng family?"
Du Wang was startled.
When the Feng family was mentioned, his bloodied and mangled face looked as if he had seen a ghost, revealing a horrified expression.
His lips twitched as if he wanted to say something, but Chen Ye ruthlessly interrupted him: "Fine, you don't need to say anything, I understand."
He pulled Du Wang up with a sudden jerk of his hand.
Du Wangren was still in mid-air, before he could land, when Chen Ye's fists rained down on his face like a storm.
Du Wang tried to struggle, but to no avail.
Two punches, three punches, four punches...
Du Wang's more than two-meter-tall body was held up in mid-air by Chen Ye's strength, and he did not fall down even without the support of his legs.
Chen Ye's punches became faster and more violent, leaving only the chilling sounds of his blows in the empty training room.
The clerk's face turned pale, and he finally panicked. His finger trembled as he pointed at Chen Ye, his voice trembling: "Stop! Stop now!"
Chen Ye seemed not to hear, and continued to bombard the enemy with punch after punch.
They only stopped when the other party was completely silent.
Du Wang's massive body, having lost its strength and consciousness, tilted forward and crashed heavily onto the bluestone floor with a muffled thud.
Chen Ye slowly withdrew his fist, casually straightened his somewhat disheveled clothes, then glanced at the corpse on the ground, and walked calmly to the dazed Si Ji.
"My lord, you may now assess my performance."
An eerie silence fell over the training room.
All that could be heard was the clerk's rapid, heavy breathing.
It took the judge a while to react and he sternly questioned, "Excuse me, didn't you hear me tell you to stop?"
Do you know that you killed a high-ranking official in the warlord's camp?
Chen Ye looked at the accountant and calmly replied, "I asked before whether the rules of the assessment clearly stated that 'only the examinee can die, but the assessor cannot die.' You said no, so in order to get a good ranking, I will naturally go all out."
Chen Ye spoke calmly and continued slowly, "Besides, in the path of martial arts, the strong live and the weak die. There's no need for so many grand principles."
"If you can beat me, then you have the right to win; if you can't, it's just a matter of life and death. You should understand this better than I do."
"Alright, instead of speaking for the dead, let's first define me and give me a score!"
The clerk looked at Chen Ye and opened his mouth.
He hesitated for a moment, then finally picked up his pen and wrote "Grade A".
Chen Ye pointed to the side and said, "Add another 'up'."
The accountant's expression froze.
He had presided over many martial arts examinations, but he had never encountered a wild character like Chen Ye.
He could tell that the candidate in front of him was definitely not just a sixth-stage cultivator, but very likely a seventh-stage or even higher cultivator.
Such a level of cultivation is most likely due to someone with a powerful background.
Not wanting to cause trouble, he picked up his pen and added the word "above" after "Grade A". He paused for a moment, then added another "above".
Ultimately, Chen Ye's performance in this competition was rated as top-tier (A).
After confirming that the results were correct, Chen Ye nodded in satisfaction and left.
