Chapter 1186 1197: Let's See How You Escape
Upon hearing that Wang Yan still had a magical treasure, everyone expressed their distinct emotions.
The veteran disciples of Mozi Academy all showed a look of pride, as they suddenly remembered that at least Wang Yan possessed another magical treasure.
However, the new disciples displayed skepticism, doubting Wang Yan could present an even more formidable magical treasure.
At this moment, Wang Yan's Starlight Ring flashed and a beam of yellow light flew out from the ring, hovering above Wang Yan's head, slowly rotating.
Seeing this magical treasure, the veteran disciples of Mozi Academy cheered loudly.
Because this magical treasure was the one they were most familiar with—the Chaos Bell!
"Chaos Bell!" Tens of thousands of veteran disciples shouted out.
Upon hearing the name Chaos Bell, the new disciples widened their eyes.
Before they joined Mozi Academy, they had already heard about a powerful magical treasure, the Chaos Bell, at the academy's entrance.
Yet, in the days since arriving at Mozi Academy, they had not seen the Chaos Bell at all.
Who would have thought that today they would witness this Chaos Bell? It seemed the Chaos Bell had been claimed by Wang Yan.
An ancient Chaos Bell that existed in Mozi Academy for countless years was subdued by someone; just this event alone was enough to stir turbulent waves in the hearts of new disciples.
At this moment, Duobao couldn't help but widen his eyes and exclaimed, "Barbaric Treasure!"
This Chaos Bell turned out to be a Barbaric Treasure!
Just one magical treasure like this was enough to be prideful in the entire Celestial Dynasty.
Indeed, with the appearance of the Chaos Bell, the Magic Treasure Mountain that was shining with multicolored lights on the stage suddenly dimmed, as if it dared not compete with the Chaos Bell's brilliance.
"I lost! I concede wholeheartedly!" Duobao immediately lowered his head.
At the moment the Chaos Bell appeared, Duobao already understood that Wang Yan had been holding back against him all along.
Just with this one Chaos Bell, he had no qualifications to compete with Wang Yan's magical treasures.
Moreover, he thought he merely had one less magical treasure than Wang Yan, but now it seemed Wang Yan's ring had more treasures he hadn't revealed.
Losing by just one was because Wang Yan spared him some dignity.
If it weren't for his insistence on comparing the strength of the treasures, he might have politely acknowledged defeat earlier.
At this moment, not only had Duobao lost, he felt immense gratitude towards Wang Yan from the bottom of his heart.
He put away his magical treasure, deeply bowed to Wang Yan with a sincere expression, and retreated from the stage.
Wang Yan raised his hand, collecting the Chaos Bell and the magical treasure back into the Starlight Ring, and the blinding light on the stage finally subsided.
Although the brilliance of the treasures faded, everyone felt they couldn't directly look because it seemed there was an invisible aura around Wang Yan that deterred them from staring openly.
After Duobao's loss, no one dared to step forward and challenge him.
After all, Wang Yan had won three consecutive matches, not only winning each round effortlessly but also excelling in his opponent's specialty techniques.
Thus, by now, no one dared to come forward to challenge him.
Just as everyone thought this stage battle was about to end here, suddenly an icy voice came from the crowd, "I will challenge you."
Hearing someone still daring to challenge Wang Yan at this time, everyone was stunned.
Unless one possessed immense confidence, how could they face Wang Yan?
However, upon hearing this person's voice, Fang Hong let out a sigh of relief and thought: Fortunately I made other arrangements, otherwise how could Chun'Er defeat Wang Yan. This Wang Yan is indeed a genius, progressing at such a rapid pace. Back in the Fang Family, he wasn't this formidable.
At this moment, the speaker had already soared from the crowd and flew towards the stage.
Seeing this, everyone clearly saw the person flying over and exclaimed in shock.
"Ancestor of the Lai Family!"
"Lai Yisheng—"
"Half-Venerable Powerhouse!"
...
As this person sailed over countless heads, the exclamations rose wave after wave.
No wonder someone still dared to challenge Wang Yan at this point; the challenger turned out to be a Half-Venerable Powerhouse.
In face of absolute cultivation, no matter how fast Wang Yan's speed, how many treasures he had, or how strong his power was, they were all rendered useless.
It's feared that once the pressure of a Half-Venerable was exerted, Wang Yan wouldn't even have a chance to react.
On the high platform for observers, Elder Si Qin, who had maintained a calm expression, finally changed her expression.
She immediately turned to Fang Hong and said, "Fang Hong, didn't you say there was no Half-Venerable cultivation within the arena?"
Elder Si Qin was clearly agitated, hence she referred to Elder Fang merely as Fang Hong.
Fang Hong feigned surprise, shrugged, and said, "I didn't know either, how could there be a Half-Venerable powerhouse here."
Elder Si Qin snorted coldly and suddenly drifted down, blocking Lai Yisheng who was about to ascend the stage, coldly saying, "Wang Yan only has the cultivation of Demon Saint Great Perfection, it's inappropriate for you with a Half-Venerable realm to challenge him, please step back."
Lai Yisheng halted, glanced at Elder Si Qin, and said loudly, "Elder Fang Hong said before that anyone below Half-Venerable could challenge Wang Yan. I am Half-Venerable, why can't I challenge? Does Mozi Academy fail to keep its word?"
Hearing this, Elder Si Qin immediately didn't know how to respond, since Elder Fang indeed said those words earlier, and there was no way to renegade in front of everyone.
But if Lai Yisheng truly ascended the stage, how could Wang Yan possibly win?
Even though Elder Si Qin had witnessed Wang Yan fight the Half-Venerable Dragon before, that Half-Venerable Dragon was severely injured, and Wang Yan won with great difficulty.
Now Wang Yan had fought three matches, while Lai Yisheng had rested, Wang Yan didn't have the advantage, and the chances of defeat were greater.
Hearing Elder Si Qin's words, the surrounding crowd immediately erupted in astonishment.
Before, they didn't know Wang Yan's cultivation, but now hearing Elder Si Qin, they realized Wang Yan was only a Demon Saint Great Perfection.
Though they now admired Wang Yan for winning three matches with Demon Saint Great Perfection, at this juncture, facing the Half-Venerable powerhouse, he had no chance to turn the tide.
The difference in realms is a fine margin, yet worlds apart.
Though Elder Si Qin blocked Lai Yisheng, losing her status, the crowd nodded; by now, this seemed the best approach.
However, someone in the gathered crowd shouted protests.
"Why not allow the challenge?"
"Mozi Academy fails to keep its word."
"Is the Elder using power to oppress?"
Those shouting were those Lai Yisheng had arranged in advance, including the Lai Brothers and dozens of his subordinates.
Though these individuals were scattered among the crowd, they seemed like the voice of the common disciples.
Elder Si Qin hesitated, unsure of what to do.
At this point, Wang Yan on the stage spoke, "Elder Si Qin, let him challenge."
Elder Si Qin turned her head and glanced at Wang Yan, noting the confidence and contempt for Lai Yisheng gleaming in Wang Yan's eyes.
Though Elder Si Qin hesitated, after pondering for a moment, she retreated back to the high platform.
Lai Yisheng triumphantly landed before Wang Yan, arrogantly saying, "Wang Yan, now I see how you will escape?"
