Chapter 136: Chapter 118 Just a Defeated Foe Chapter 136: Chapter 118 Just a Defeated Foe “Did Su Yuan come?
I want to challenge him!”
As soon as Chen Jiujun said this, everyone in the Demon Capital Academy froze.
What, does this person know Su Yuan?
Not only does he know Su Yuan, but he also wants to challenge him?
Xia Yue became interested and stepped forward to ask, “You know Su Yuan?”
“We were classmates before.”
“Oh?
So you’re from the same middle school…
Why do you want to challenge him?”
Chen Jiujun frowned and asked, “Why are you asking so many questions?
Is he in the South Pole Academy?
If he is, make him come out.”
If someone normally talked to her like this, Xia Yue would have thrown a fireball at them by now.
But now, Xia Yue curiously looked Chen Jiujun up and down.
“Of course he’s here.
But…
have you ever been beaten by Hellfire?”
A hint of confusion flashed in Chen Jiujun’s eyes.
“Hellfire?
What’s that?”
“No wonder!”
The crowd from Demon Capital Academy suddenly realized and began to look at Chen Jiujun with a strange expression.
It seems that although this kid knows Su Yuan, he hasn’t been taught by Hellfire?
No wonder he dares to challenge Su Yuan…
Xia Yue mischievously smiled.
“Alright, I’ll ask for you and see if he comes over.”
“Wait!”
Just then, Xiang Dingqian walked forward, passed Xia Yue, and approached Chen Jiujun.
“You want to challenge Su Yuan?
Let me see first if you have the qualifications!”
Chen Jiujun examined the burly young man in front of him, who was slightly taller than him, and his pupils contracted slightly.
Previously, he was only focused on finding Su Yuan and didn’t pay much attention to others.
But now, after a closer look, he realized that the burly young man in front of him didn’t emit the slightest trace of Star Power fluctuations.
This person was actually a skilled entry-level practitioner of breathing technique!
To reach entry level breathing technique in just two months since school started, he must have already known and practiced it before enrolling.
And people like this often have extraordinary backgrounds!
Thinking of this, Chen Jiujun’s eyes narrowed, and he asked, “Who are you?”
Xiang Dingqian casually replied, “Just a defeated subordinate of Su Yuan.”
“A defeated subordinate?”
Chen Jiujun was shocked.
A skilled entry-level practitioner of the breathing technique was Su Yuan’s defeated subordinate?
Although breathing technique doesn’t fully represent strength, someone at entry level wouldn’t be weak!
“That’s right, a defeated subordinate.” Xiang Dingqian’s expression was indifferent, without a trace of resentment or shame.
Since his Dao Heart shattered last time, Xiang Dingqian had thought for a whole day and finally achieved enlightenment.
If you can’t beat them, join them!
If he couldn’t defeat Su Yuan and be the strongest among his peers, then he would be the strongest under Su Yuan!
Those defeated by Su Yuan must also be defeated by him!

“Once you accept this setting, it actually isn’t that bad…”
Realizing this, Xiang Dingqian felt the gloom in his heart vanish.
The world suddenly opened up to him, and life and the future became filled with anticipation!
“What are they talking about?” At this moment, the genius students from various academies surrounding the scene began to discuss in confusion.
“It seems Chen Jiujun wants to challenge someone from the Demon Capital Academy, but that person isn’t here, so this guy stepped in…”
“Who is he challenging?”
“It seems to be someone named ‘Su’ something…”
“I heard it, it’s Su Yuan.”
“Su Yuan?
Who is Su Yuan?”
“I don’t know.
Does anyone know who Su Yuan is?”
…
In the arena, Chen Jiujun stared at Xiang Dingqian.
After a brief hesitation, he said, “Alright, let’s give it a try then!”
Since you’re defeated by Su Yuan, I’ll defeat you first, then challenge him.
By then, he surely won’t refuse to come out!
Chen Jiujun retreated to the center of the arena and grasped his Thunder Thorns Staff.
The Twin Thunder Snakes burst out from his body, wrapping around him with crackling silver electricity.
Xiang Dingqian sneered, took out his long spear with black and golden patterns, and leaped into the arena with a stomp.
With a thought, massive swathes of Heavenly Gang Energy surged around him like silver foil, an awe-inspiring sight!
Silver electricity against Silver Gang, a fierce battle was about to erupt!
…
In a beverage shop at South Pole Academy.
“Since you’ve found Red Fire Essence Gold, have you gathered the rest of the materials?” Su Yuan asked.
“It’s not that easy,” Geng Qiuyi shook his head, “I found a senior who can refine blue star artifacts.
According to him, at least one more third-level material is needed to craft a blue star artifact.
He gave me four choices: Geng Yuan Qingjin, Phoenix Nirvana Stone, Sealing Flame Blood Jade, and Earth Core Rock.
These are rarer than Red Fire Essence Gold.
If I can gather these materials before reaching Gold Level, I would be extremely grateful…”
“Phoenix Nirvana Stone and Sealing Flame Blood Jade?” Su Yuan’s heart stirred, “I need those materials too.”
“Hmm?” Geng Qiuyi was first taken aback, then understood, “You also found Red Fire Essence Gold?”
“That’s right.”
“Your luck is really good…” Geng Qiuyi clicked his tongue.
Su Yuan smiled.
“If you have any information about Phoenix Nirvana Stone and Sealing Flame Blood Jade, please let me know.
I’ll offer a reward in exchange.
Of course, I’m talking about any extra materials.
If there’s only enough for one, then no need to inform me.”
Geng Qiuyi casually replied, “Of course, that’s no problem, especially since you saved me before.
No need for a reward.
If I find any information about Phoenix Nirvana Stone and Sealing Flame Blood Jade, I will let you know first.”
Su Yuan pondered for a moment and nodded.
Although he had initially intended to kill Mo Wenwen and the others, saving Geng Qiuyi and the Insect Servants was incidental.
It seemed Geng Qiuyi didn’t want to owe any favors.
“Oh, there’s another piece of news.” Geng Qiuyi suddenly remembered, “Last time, your female classmate was almost captured by a gang.
There’s a follow-up to that incident.”
“Oh?”
Geng Qiuyi slowly said, “The people in the brown robes were from a gang in the west called the Quicksand Sect.
They tried to capture your classmate because her sister killed many Gold Level and above experts from the Quicksand Sect during the Evil Punishment action.
Some members of the Quicksand Sect wanted revenge, which led to that incident.”
Geng Qiuyi paused, his expression serious.
“And according to recent news, including the Quicksand Sect, all the gangs that held grudges against Xia Xuan after the Evil Punishment action are now completely wiped out!”
“Completely wiped out?”
“From the two Shining Star Level leaders to the newly bronzed underlings, the several gangs combined lost at least a hundred people, yet they’re all dead now!”
“Could it be…”
“That’s right.” Geng Qiuyi nodded solemnly.
“It is said that after the incident at Red Sand Flame Island, Xia Xuan left Demon City and went west alone.”
Su Yuan’s expression changed slightly, and he pondered for a moment.
“It seems Xia Yue’s sister is truly formidable.”
Geng Qiuyi laughed.
“Of course, she’s called the ‘Witch’ for a reason, and not just because she’s in Demon City.”
After chatting for a while, Su Yuan stood up with Luo Bingtong.
“That’s it for now.
We won’t bother you anymore.”
Geng Qiuyi stood up as well.
“No problem.
I just returned to submit a task these days…
Best of luck with securing the Four-leaf Essence tomorrow.”
“Alright.” Su Yuan smiled.
After parting ways with Geng Qiuyi, Su Yuan led Luo Bingtong back to the Guest House.
However, before they reached the Guest House, Su Yuan’s phone rang.
He received a message from Xia Yue and Shang Baiyu.
“Hmm?
Practical Combat Hall, Chen Jiujun?”
Seeing this message, Su Yuan couldn’t help but be a little surprised.
Luo Bingtong noticed and paused with the orange juice she was sipping, looking up at Su Yuan.
Sensing Luo Bingtong’s gaze, Su Yuan smiled.
“It’s a message from Xia Yue and Shang Baiyu.
Looks like I need to go to the Practical Combat Hall.”
…
In the Practical Combat Hall, the battle between Xiang Dingqian and Chen Jiujun was at its peak.
Xiang Dingqian had unleashed his Heavenly Gang General form.
Wielding the Fangtian Halberd, his every move had the power comparable to the Silver Stage.
Compared to two months ago, Xiang Dingqian’s Outer Path Avatar move had become even more formidable.
The combination of Heavenly Gang Energy and Ancient Army Soul was even more perfect and cohesive.
On the other hand, Chen Jiujun was giving his all, bathed in silver electricity, covered in runes, and transformed into a Thunder Elemental Energy Body.
Surrounded by snakes, he moved like lightning, constantly launching powerful Thunder Skills at the Heavenly Gang General!
The Heavenly Gang General, formed by Heavenly Gang Energy and Ancient Army Soul, had a defense that couldn’t be matched by Zhang Tai’s pyramid.
Even under the relentless Thunder Skills from Chen Jiujun, the Heavenly Gang General remained mostly undamaged.
But hitting Chen Jiujun, who moved like Thunder Light, was just as difficult.
One couldn’t hit, the other couldn’t defeat, resulting in a stalemate.
Just then, Su Yuan and Luo Bingtong walked in.
“I didn’t expect Chen Jiujun to hold his own against Xiang Dingqian.
It seems his experience in the past few months has been remarkable.”
Su Yuan’s eyes showed a hint of surprise.
Earlier, Xia Yue and Shang Baiyu had sent a message saying a student named Chen Jiujun from Wanzhou specifically challenged him.
Not only that, but he had already defeated Zhang Tai, and now he was evenly matched with Xiang Dingqian, showing great strength.
Su Yuan had been skeptical at first, but now he saw it was all true.
Observing the battle between Chen Jiujun and the Heavenly Gang General, Su Yuan quickly noticed the changes in Chen Jiujun.
Besides the Twin Thunder Snakes, he had a new skill that turned his body into a Thunder Elemental form, a blue star artifact in his hand, and the strong Star Power of the Bronze Middle Stage.
Compared to before, his overall strength had increased significantly.
While Star Artifacts and realm upgrades were somewhat manageable, improving skills wasn’t easy…
Taking the two combatants for example, Chen Jiujun’s strength lay in his Bronze Middle Stage realm and the blue Thunder Thorns Staff;
Xiang Dingqian’s strength lay in his six-dimensional qualities and the highly skilled Outer Path Avatar Heavenly Gang General.
Their paper strength was similar, and the outcome depended on the actual combat situation.
