Supreme Lord of Towers

”Damn it! How can this brat’s physical strength be so formidable? Did he cultivate the strongest body refining technique of the War King Hall, ’Little Glazed Martial Body’?” Duanmu Ying gritted her teeth tightly, her tone icy and stern.

’Little Glazed Martial Body’ is the Palace Guarding Technique of the War King Hall, created by an immortal from the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

This body refining technique is divided into four layers.

Completing the first layer increases physical strength by the Power of a Thousand Tigers.

Completing the second layer increases strength by the Power of Two Thousand Tigers.

Reaching the third layer increases strength by the Power of Three Thousand Tigers.

And if one can cultivate the fourth layer, physical power can be increased by the Power of Six Thousand Tigers.

This power is sufficient to rival the Celestial Spirits within the body of a peak Celestial Spirit Realm expert.

However, cultivating ’Little Glazed Martial Body’ to the fourth layer is extremely difficult.

Even among the successive Hall Masters of the War King Hall, some were unable to achieve this.

It took the third-generation Hall Master, with the greatest body refining talent in War King Hall, twenty years to cultivate ’Little Glazed Martial Body’ to the fourth layer.

This shows how high the difficulty truly is.

”Impossible, ’Little Glazed Martial Body’ can only be cultivated by the Hall Masters of the War King Hall. He is merely a Seed Student of the War King Hall, completely unqualified to cultivate this technique. Besides, even if he did obtain this technique, it’s impossible to reach the first layer in such a short time,” said Soul Palace Master Chen Fei, shaking his head in the hall.

.

”Then why can this brat’s body explode with the Power of Fifteen Hundred Tigers?” Duanmu Ying said, her face extremely unpleasant.

”He must have cultivated another body refining technique; it seems he obtained some sort of body refining inheritance before joining our Celestial Flame Academy.” Even Celestial Flame Peak Master was now staring at Ye Chen, as if to penetrate all his secrets.

In fact, he was also shocked by the terrifying battle power Ye Chen displayed just now.

Ye Chen’s cultivation had just stepped into the Gang Qi Realm, yet he could already unleash nearly Two Thousand Tigers’ worth of power.

Such a person is unprecedented even in the history of Celestial Flame Academy.

Even their number one prodigy, Chu Feng, was far less powerful upon stepping into the Gang Qi Realm than Ye Chen currently is.

More ironically, Ye Chen’s bloodline had not awakened.

This left those students with awakened bloodlines feeling quite overwhelmed.

”Hmph! Even if this brat truly obtained some body refining inheritance, so what? He can’t awaken his bloodline, ultimately he’s just an insignificant waste who, even if he cultivates ’Little Glazed Martial Body’ to the fourth layer, is destined not to become an Immortal Seed. Azure Sky Immortal Sect will absolutely never value someone like him.” Duanmu Ying said coldly, eyes full of contempt.

In her view, Ye Chen only possessed some talent in body refining.

Such a person might have some advantage in the Mortal Realm, but once in the world of immortals, that advantage would vanish.

The immortal world values bloodlines most.

A waste like Ye Chen, unable to awaken his bloodline, would be nothing but a laughingstock in the immortal world.

Besides, he will never enter the immortal world.

Because Duanmu Ying has decided to eliminate him, avenging her nephew Duanmu Jie.

”What you say is true, Sister Duanmu. He can’t awaken his bloodline, no matter how high his other talents, it’s pointless. But the Chief Disciple position of the War King Hall must not fall into the hands of this waste. Let my grandson, Chen Bai, go defeat him.” Soul Palace Master Chen Fei said with a cold smile.

Although Ye Chen’s battle power exploded to around Two Thousand Tigers just now.

He defeated Zi Xuan in one move merely because Zi Xuan was too careless.

If Zi Xuan had used his Bloodline Secret Technique right away, he wouldn’t have been defeated so miserably.

As for his grandson Chen Bai, his power is much stronger than Zi Xuan, crushing Ye Chen shouldn’t be difficult.

”Brother Chen, can your grandson really handle this brat?” Duanmu Ying said, somewhat surprised.

She originally thought Zi Xuan’s strength should not be much weaker than Seed Students Chen Bai and Ning Hongye.

But now she realized she might have been overconfident.

”Ha! Of course, my grandson possesses a triple Qi Sea Foundation, his strength is incomparable to that trash Ye Chen. You will soon find out.” Soul Palace Master Chen Fei sneered, his eyebrows filled with confidence.

”Oh! I didn’t expect Chen Bai also possesses a triple Qi Sea Foundation. It seems that the position of chief disciple of the War King Hall is within Brother Chen’s grasp this time.” The Celestial Flame Peak Master smiled slightly.

Although he is the master of the Celestial Flame Academy, he is somewhat younger than Chen Fei in terms of seniority, so he has to address him as brother.

”Master, our Soul Palace has prepared for this day for a long time. My grandson not only has high Divine Soul talent but also exceptional Body Refining talent; indeed, he is the best candidate to become the new hall master of the War King Hall. Moreover, my grandson has sacrificed a lot to become the chief disciple of the War King Hall! You know, possessing a triple Qi Sea Foundation is not necessarily a good thing for my grandson; he is destined to have a much harder path to becoming an Immortal than others!” Soul Palace Master Chen Fei couldn’t help but sigh.

For ordinary cultivators, having a triple Qi Sea Foundation is something enviable.

However, in the eyes of powerful figures like the Soul Palace Master, it might not be a blessing.

After all, the more abundant the Qi Sea Foundation, the more time it requires for cultivation.

And mortal lifespans are ultimately limited, rarely exceeding one hundred years.

If one cannot become an Immortal before turning one hundred, it doesn’t matter how abundant the Qi Sea Foundation is; in the end, it will all be for naught.

This is why the Soul Palace Master and others like the Celestial Flame Peak Master choose to have a double Qi Sea Foundation.

Because they have a realistic understanding of their talents.

As for a freak like Ye Chen who possesses a quintuple Qi Sea Foundation, although unprecedented in the history of the Celestial Flame Dynasty,

to the Soul Palace Master and his peers, he is but a joke.

After all, if Ye Chen cannot become an Immortal in his lifetime, no matter how abundant his Qi Sea Foundation is, he will at most rule the Mortal Realm.

A hundred years later, he will turn into a handful of yellow earth.

”Brother Chen, although I understand your feelings, we at Celestial Flame Peak also desire the position of chief disciple of the War King Hall, so today I can only apologize to you.” The Celestial Flame Peak Master said apologetically.

”Master, do you mean that the seed student you’ve sent can defeat my grandson?” The Soul Palace Master slightly frowned, his gaze involuntarily falling on a woman in red.

This woman in red wore an expression of laziness, giving off an air of superiority.

She was none other than Ning Hongye, the seed student of Celestial Flame Peak.

”Brother Chen, Hongye is a student I’ve carefully cultivated; she also has a high Body Refining talent and a triple Qi Sea Foundation. Whether she can defeat your grandson, we will soon find out.” The Celestial Flame Peak Master smiled faintly, as if everything was under his control.

”Who else dares to come and fight me?” At this moment, a domineering voice, like a thunderclap, suddenly resounded over the White Jade Battle Platform.

The owner of this voice was Ye Chen.

He casually tossed Zi Xuan’s corpse to the bottom of the White Jade Battle Platform, his cold gaze sweeping over the crowd.

This action made many students’ souls tremble, as if being stared down by an Ancient Fierce Beast, even making it difficult to breathe.

They had never thought that a so-called trash unable to awaken his bloodline could give them such an oppressive feeling.

”Hmph! Ye Chen, you’re indeed arrogant. I didn’t expect your body to be so strong; I underestimated you!” At this moment, a handsome silver-robed youth slowly walked out from the crowd, his lips curled in a mocking smile as he sneered at Ye Chen.

In fact, even he hadn’t expected Zi Xuan to die at the hands of a so-called trash like Ye Chen.

After all, Ye Chen’s cultivation had only just reached the Gang Qi Realm, and the gap between him and Zi Xuan was much too large.

That he could kill Zi Xuan was simply a miracle.

Despite his shock, Chen Bai still had full confidence in his strength.

Because his cultivation had reached the Ninth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm, stronger than Zi Xuan’s, and he also possessed a triple Qi Sea Foundation.

Even if Ye Chen could unleash a strength of about two thousand tigers, so what?

In front of him, it’s still just a joke.

”Do you also wish to come and disgrace yourself?” Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze coldly fixed on Chen Bai, from which a terrifying gleam of frost shot forth.

”Ignorant fool, today I’ll make you understand what it means that beyond the heavens, there are heavens, and beyond people, there are people.” Chen Bai’s eye muscles twitched subtly, provoked by Ye Chen.

”Just a waste unable to awaken his bloodline. Do you really think defeating Zi Xuan means you can look down on everyone? Let me tell you, you’re far from it! Chen Bai, quickly defeat this trash; in this place, only you are barely qualified to be my opponent.” Just as Chen Bai was about to charge up to the White Jade Battle Platform to attack Ye Chen, a lazy voice suddenly echoed in everyone’s ears, filled with disdain and mockery.

The one who spoke was the aloof Ning Hongye.
