Chapter 1369 - Pummeling Xing Qian

“How is that possible? How in the world is this possible? How could you ever be a match for me!”

Apart from the crowd, even Xing Qian himself began to doubt. He was already fighting at full power, yet still couldn’t suppress Chen Fan.

Every time Xing Qian raised his strength, Chen Fan seemed to match him effortlessly; now, he had already reached his limit, but he couldn’t tell if Chen Fan had done the same.

What unsettled him most was Chen Fan’s calm expression: relaxed, almost casual, as if he still had strength to spare. Could this truly not be Chen Fan’s limit?

Xing Qian grew more apprehensive as he fought. His earlier confidence and arrogance were gone, smashed to pieces by Chen Fan’s punches.

Then, with a mocking smile, Chen Fan finally spoke, further fueling Xing Qian’s fury.

“Xing Qian, is this your limit? You really disappoint me!

“Earlier you boasted so much that I wondered how strong you were. Turns out, you’re almost no better than that trash Chen Wang. Enough. This warm-up match ends now!”

“What? You bastard, what did you say? You call me a warm-up? You’re too arrogant!”

Xing Qian flew into a rage. He was so furious that his soul was about to fly out.

“So what? You’re only good as a warm-up!” Chen Fan said disdainfully. Suddenly, his gaze turned sharp. “Time to end this. Face your nightmare. From this moment on, you’ll tremble every time you see me.”

Chen Fan’s aura suddenly spiked, overwhelming Xing Qian’s aura. Golden light surged from him, turning into a golden ancient god. His aura became extremely berserk.

Rumble!

Chen Fan punched, and his fist was like a hot knife through butter, blowing the sword lights Xing Qian unleashed into pieces and striking his ancient sword.

Buzz, buzz, buzz!

Immediately, the ancient sword seemed to suffer a devastating blow. It let out a harsh buzzing, the blade trembling violently as the terrifying force ripped open the webs between Xing Qian’s fingers, fresh blood spurting out.

Chen Fan’s eyes gleamed with a cold, electrifying light. His icy gaze locked on the weapon as he struck it with another crushing punch.

Xing Qian let out a cry, and the ancient sword flew out of his grasp.

A dull, bone-shaking thud followed as Chen Fan’s fist shattered every defense Xing Qian had left and slammed into his chest.

Boom!

Xing Qian felt an indescribable pain assaulting his mind. He almost couldn’t breathe from the pain. His eyes bulged out as if they were about to pop out of their sockets, with red veins visible.

Before he could recover, another punch crashed down.

Boom!

Chen Fan’s fists rained down on Xing Qian, sending him flying. However, Chen Fan stuck close to him like a leech and threw punch after punch.

Boom, boom, boom!

“Is it painful? Do you now know pain? Nothing would have happened if you hadn’t come looking for trouble, but no! You had to provoke me and hurt my senior brother so badly. Now, you’ll pay every last debt!”

Countless people watched as Chen Fan punched Xing Qian repeatedly. All of them sucked in breaths of cold air.

It was too brutal.

Chen Wang’s fate was already terrible, but it seemed like nothing compared to Xing Qian.

The Hua Alliance’s members were struck speechless.

When Chen Wang was beaten like a dog, they had burned with rage, itching to tear Chen Fan apart. Yet now, seeing Xing Qian in an even worse state, they felt an icy dread crawl up their spines.

Some even began to wonder: had they truly made a mistake?

Why did they provoke such a ferocious person for no reason?!

“Get lost!”

With a fierce shout, Chen Fan kicked like a whip, lashing Xing Qian ruthlessly. The sound of countless bones breaking resounded. He spewed a mixture of fresh blood and bits of organs from his mouth as he flew out of the spatial battlefield like a cannonball.

Countless gazes fell on Chen Fan. All of them sucked in breaths of cold air.

Too vicious!

Chen Fan’s methods were truly too vicious.

Were it not for the restriction against killing, Xing Qian would never have left the battlefield alive. Even so, he was crippled.

Whispers rippled through the crowd; everyone silently resolved never to provoke such a ferocious figure. Otherwise, their fate would be very miserable.

Gu Xun, Lin Heng, Wang Ba, and now, Chen Wang and Xing Qian were examples enough. Chen Fan cared nothing for backgrounds or backing. Provoke him, and you would pay.

He had subdued the entire arena with his ruthlessness; even the Hua Alliance members, though fuming, were forced into silence.

What was this?

A ruthless slap to their Hua Alliance’s face?

Naturally, Chen Fan wouldn’t care. His principle was simple: if no one provoked him, he wouldn’t lift a hand; if they did, he would uproot them completely.

Chen Fan emerged from the battlefield. Countless people’s gazes were evasive, not daring to meet his eyes. Everyone was frightened by his ruthlessness earlier.

The competition was still ongoing. More than half of the five thousand people were eliminated. The top one thousand were decided, and now they were determining the top one hundred.

After Xing Qian, Chen Fan took part in a few more rounds, but not once did he need to lift a finger—his opponents surrendered immediately, unwilling to suffer his wrath. They bore him no personal grudge, but what if he struck too hard? Would they even survive?

So, the top hundred were also determined very quickly.

All of those who made it into the top one hundred were all the cream of the crop among the low-class disciples. Even the weakest among them had middle-stage Void Immortal level cultivation. Only a dozen or so at that level had slipped through, making them stragglers compared to the rest.

Of course, although Chen Fan was in the late-stage Invincible Legendary realm, no one would see him as a straggler.

Several others who might have reached the top hundred, or even the top thirty or twenty, were eliminated simply for crossing paths with stronger opponents, just as Xing Qian had.

After all, the further into the competition, the stronger the opponents they would face.

There were also many people who were unknown previously, and went on a rampage all of a sudden. Someone in the top ten Man-character secret realm was defeated by such a person, causing the crowd to exclaim in shock.

For the sake of the Immortal Breakthrough Pill, or even a spot in the Immortal Conferral Ancient Realm, everyone gave it their all and didn’t hold anything back. Each contender fought desperately, relying on nothing but their strength and those who remained earned the crowd’s recognition.
