With just one look from Yun Zheng, several people around him knew what to do.
After being instructed, these people walked out one after another at this moment, without exception, they all expressed their dissatisfaction with Zhou Yuan just now.
"I, Lu Liangrong, challenge you. Do you dare to fight?"
"I, Qin Shao, challenge you. Do you dare to accept the battle?"
"My master, Huang Gao, challenges you. Do you dare to accept the challenge?"
"I'm Luo Hongfei..."
…
One after another figures appeared in front of Zhou Yuan, their voices were deafening, and they wanted to challenge Zhou Yuan, and the place of challenge was this life and death arena.
They were dissatisfied with Zhou Yuan in their hearts, but they all accepted Yun Zheng's instructions and were willing to die for Yun Zheng.
Without Yun Zheng's instructions, they would not act rashly.
Seeing these figures, everyone else around them was startled and their expressions jumped wildly.
"Oh my God, Lu Liangrong, who is ranked fifth on the Inner Sect Ranking, has mastered the Xiaobaimai Body Fighting Technique to level 639."
"There is also Qin Shao, but he is ranked fourth on the inner sect list. It is said that the Xiaobaimai Body Fighting Technique has reached level 751."
…
"Luo Hongfei is even more powerful. He ranks first on the inner sect list. His cultivation has reached the seventh level of foundation building. He has practiced the Xiaobaimai Body Fighting Technique to nearly a thousand turns, which is extremely terrifying."
Everyone exclaimed that these disciples who challenged Zhou Yuan were all among the top ten on the inner sect list, and each one was more powerful than the other. At this moment, they all challenged Zhou Yuan.
It can be seen that in their hearts, they can no longer tolerate this Zhou Yuan.
Especially Luo Hongfei, whose strength and cultivation have already reached the standards of a core disciple.
Waves of exclamations resounded throughout the audience.
Zhou Yuan focused his gaze and looked at the figures in the audience. Naturally, he could feel the auras on their bodies. None of them were weak.
After a while, he said in a deep voice: "I, Zhou Yuan, accept the challenge from all of you. When will we fight?"
"In that case, let's have a showdown in three days."
In the crowd, Yang Yueshan kept jumping on the spot. He was short and could only shout while jumping.
"Hmph, this Zhou Yuan is simply looking for death. With so many people challenging him, even if he is very strong, he will eventually be consumed by his life and death."
"Yes, something like this has happened before. Several masters around the eldest prince were killed in this way."
In the corner, there were other people talking in low voices, and they seemed to have guessed Zhou Yuan's final outcome.
On the ring, Yun Chen looked at Zhou Yuan with a complicated expression and asked: "Brother, have you thought about it?"
Zhou Yuan nodded slightly, "I'm still saying the same thing, just don't worry and watch my operations. I, Zhou Yuan, will definitely change the structure of Seven Stars Academy."
Zhou Yuan's tone was still as firm as before.
Maybe others don't know, but Yun Chen knows that under Zhou Yuan's bold words, he must have made all preparations to face the coming storm.
Under the ring, Gu Lin was also happy to see this scene.
Although Wu Xun did not directly kill Zhou Yuan as he imagined, Zhou Yuan aroused public outrage and even accepted all challenges. In his opinion, this meant that he was impatient with life.
"Humph, since you are looking for death, then I will help you."
Gu Lin said, turning his hands and taking out a dozen blank life and death documents from the Najie.
To challenge, he must first sign the life and death document. At this moment, Gu Lin even had a slight illusion in his heart. He grabbed the life and death document as if he was holding Zhou Yuan's life.
Snapped!
Just when Gu Lin was feeling proud, a big hand suddenly slapped him on the forehead.
Gu Lin's eyes suddenly flashed with stars, and before he could react, Leng Huayuan, who was dressed in tendons and meat, had appeared in front of him at some point.
"Bring it to you." Leng Huayuan sneered, snatched the life and death document from his hand, and then continued to Gu Lin: "This thing will be under my control from now on."
Leng Huayuan's voice was rich, and as soon as he opened his mouth, his breath felt like a terrifying strong wind blowing on Gu Lin's face.
Gu Lin suddenly looked frightened, and veins popped out on his forehead.
They were both elders of the inner sect, but the gap was so huge. Gu Lin couldn't muster the slightest resistance when facing Leng Huayuan.
Leng Huayuan took the blank life and death document and immediately shouted in a low voice: "Since you all want to challenge, come and sign. Whoever is not present when the time comes will be considered the loser."
Although Leng Huayuan is the preaching elder of Leiyuan Peak, he is very intimidating.
The few people who ranked high on the inner sect list all bowed respectfully to Leng Huayuan, then stepped forward and wrote down their names.
Finally, it was Zhou Yuan who wrote his name on several life and death documents.
The life and death document comes into effect. If anyone does not show up after three days, even if he survives, he must hand over all his belongings.
The three days were just a buffer period and nothing happened. However, the Third Prince was collecting all the information about Zhou Yuan, hoping to determine Zhou Yuan's true strength.
And we are still thinking about countermeasures.
In Yun Zheng's opinion, it was not safe enough to send a few inner disciples to deal with Zhou Yuan.
After all, in Yun Zheng's eyes, the inner disciples are just small soldiers, and the real generals around him are the core disciples and direct disciples.
Zhou Yuan, on the other hand, was just waiting patiently.
Yunchen did not stop him, but for three days, he often took people to Leiyuan Peak and took care of Zhou Yuan in every possible way.
Like this, soon, the fourth day arrived.
The arena of life and death was once again crowded with people, even more than before.
There was no way around it. In three days, the news that Zhou Yuan had accepted challenges from many people at once quickly spread and fermented throughout the academy.
At first it was just a life and death challenge, but in the end it turned out to be Zhou Yuan's plan to sweep through the inner sect with one man's power.
This news was so explosive that it naturally attracted more people's attention.
However, not many people know Zhou Yuan. The status of the inner sect disciples is not very high in Seven Star Academy, but those at the top of the inner sect rankings have a certain degree of gold content. How can they be defeated so easily?
Therefore, many people said that Zhou Yuan was committing a suicide challenge.
Of course, there are also people who are talking about the Xiaobaimai Body Fighting Technique practiced by Zhou Yuan. It was able to defeat Wu Xun without even condensing the spiritual energy in one turn. They all feel that Zhou Yuan's strength is unpredictable and incredible.
The first person to arrive was Leng Huayuan.
He was usually unwilling to join in the fun, but since Zhou Yuan came to Lei Yuan Peak, he has become quite concerned.
Therefore, he will personally host this competition.
Not long after, both parties to the challenge arrived at the scene. The third prince, Yun Chen, was surrounded by a crowd of people with a huge momentum, and the people who had challenged Zhou Yuan before were all following him.
At this time, they no longer need to hide it.
On the one hand, he looked down on Zhou Yuan, but more importantly, he wanted to clear all obstacles for the third prince.
On the surface, it was because Zhou Yuan was arrogant and he challenged him, but in fact, it was the third prince's instruction.
Zhou Yuan sees through it without revealing it. He believes that with enough strength, these conspiracies can be broken.
Everyone from both sides arrived, and just as Leng Huayuan was about to announce that the first competition was about to begin, several special figures appeared on a mountainside not far from the life and death arena.
"Why are they here?" Leng Huayuan was keenly aware and spotted them immediately and turned to look over.
Among those figures, there were men and women, but they all had majestic auras. They were all dressed in white robes, standing halfway up the mountain, looking calmly at the arena of life and death.
These are the preaching elders of other peaks among the seven peaks of the inner sect, and they have the same status as Leng Huayuan.
They only showed up to watch the competition in the ring, and did not disturb the normal progress of the battle of life and death. They even talked to each other about who would win and who would lose in this battle of life and death.
In fact, their mentality is the same as that of Leng Huayuan. As long as they are not their own disciples, they will not care whether they live or die.
Of course, they have the power to stop this life-and-death behavior, but at their level, how could they not know the inside story?
The life-and-death challenge to each other was just a show, but in reality the eldest prince and the third prince were competing behind the scenes.
The two princes will determine the fate of Tianyun Kingdom in the future. No matter who they, the elders, turn to, the final result will be to offend the other party, which will be thankless.
"Come on, let's place your bets... This time, I will buy according to the defensive and offensive sides. Junior Brother Zhou Yuan is the defender, and the other senior brothers are the attackers..."
In the crowd, a group of gamblers were shouting loudly.
Many people took out their hard-earned spiritual stones and counted them as betting chips.
This time is different from usual. Zhou Yuan is the defender. As long as he holds the arena, he will win. Luo Hongfei and Qin Shao are the attackers. No matter who defeats Zhou Yuan in the end, it will be considered a success and the attacker will
win.
"I buy the attacking side."
"All fools know how to buy the attacker. How can Zhou Yuan defend the challenge alone?"
"This is a wheel-and-wheel battle. Zhou Yuan will be killed in the end. Those who buy him to win simply think that the money is too much."
"That's right, Huang Gao, Qin Shao, Luo Hongfei... these are all the top ten geniuses in the inner sect. They are much more powerful than Wu Xun. Any one of them can beat Zhou Yuan, okay?
"
Everyone was shouting, and without exception, they all agreed to win the battle.
In their opinion, Zhou Yuan will die sooner or later. The consumption of the wheel battle is too great, and no one can hold on to the end. Moreover, this kind of thing has happened countless times. Only a few people around Yun Chen can hold on to the end.
.
"I buy Zhou Yuan to win."
A voice immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Yun Chen turned over his hand and took out a thousand spiritual stones and threw them out.
I wanted to make some sarcastic remarks, but seeing that it was the eldest prince, many people swallowed their words.
The news has already spread that Zhou Yuan belongs to the eldest prince, and buying one of his own to win is out of the eldest prince's trust in Zhou Yuan. Moreover, the eldest prince has a noble status. Anyone who offends him is seeking death.
At the same time, Jing He and others around Yun Chen also bought Zhou Yuanying.
These people are true friends, and their cohesion is naturally strong.
"Place a bet for me too. I'll win by myself." Zhou Yuan walked onto the ring slowly, took out a piece of paper and threw it down.
When everyone saw this, they all looked shocked.
What Zhou Yuan took out was a spiritual ticket.
The person who picked it up shouted loudly: "Zhou Yuan bets on a spiritual ticket worth three thousand spiritual stones. If you buy it, you will win."
Someone shows a shameful smile, knowing that he is going to die. Is this a way of giving away money?
Soon, the first competition began.
Leng Huayuan shouted cheerfully from the side: "The competition starts now. The challengers on the stage are in no particular order, but only one person can take the stage at a time. Who will be the first?"
"I'll go first."
A figure jumped directly into the air and onto the arena of life and death.
It was Yang Yueshan, who was short in stature.
Yang Yueshan was dissatisfied with Zhou Yuan from the beginning and was the first to challenge Zhou Yuan. Naturally, he was also the first to take the stage at this moment.
Ranked eighth on the inner sect list, with the sixth level of foundation building, Xiaobaimai Body Fighting Technique has reached level 252. As soon as Yang Yueshan came on the stage, he immediately gave people an invisible sense of oppression.
Although he is a dwarf, no one dares to look down on him.
Wow!
A white light suddenly appeared between Yang Yueshan's eyebrows. Almost instantly, Yang Yueshan's eyes also turned white, looking a little scary.
"Is this the fifth-grade soul eye martial arts seal?" Zhou Yuan's eyes flashed.
Yun Chen had told him about every challenger in the past three days. He knew that Yang Yueshan's martial arts seal gave him special abilities. It was said that it could amplify his reaction ability a hundred times and see his opponent's moves in advance.
"I don't know if you can clearly see the moves in my Great Hundred Meridians Body Fighting Technique?" Zhou Yuan thought to himself.
Yang Yueshan stared at Zhou Yuan, with a terrifying smile on his face, and said: "Nearly seven of the eldest prince's men have died in my hands, and you, Zhou Yuan, will be the eighth."
"No, I will end you." Zhou Yuan also spread out his moves, with lightning surging all over his body.
Yang Yueshan's cultivation at the sixth level of foundation building had the potential to crush Zhou Yuan, so Zhou Yuan did not hide it, and completely released his cultivation at the third level of foundation building.
Since it is a life and death arena, we must kill the opponent as much as possible and not hold back.
"Hmph, you are not ashamed of your words." Yang Yueshan's white eyes flashed, and then his whole person was enveloped in aura, like a row of huge waves, rushing towards Zhou Yuan in an instant.
The opponent practices the Small Hundred Meridians Body Fighting Technique, and he practices the Great Hundred Meridians Body Fighting Technique, so Zhou Yuan can naturally see the opponent's moves and routines clearly.
Almost instantly, the two were fighting together.
It wasn't until the battle that Yang Yueshan discovered that although he could see Zhou Yuan's moves in advance and could catch them himself, every move Zhou Yuan performed carried terrifying power.
In this way, no matter how thoroughly he saw Zhou Yuan, he was still tired of dealing with it.
Zhou Yuan was completely using his strength to break the law.
In the face of absolute strength, any technique is just fancy.
"How is it possible? Why is his physical body so strong? Why is his spiritual power so strong? The thunder contained in his spiritual power can completely suppress the spiritual power in my body...ah..."
The more Yang Yueshan fought, the more horrified he became. He was filled with all kinds of questions. Even though his cultivation level was much higher, he was still no match for the opponent. Finally, he was hit by a powerful palm in the chest. He immediately let out a scream, and his body seemed to have been cut off.
The kite flew upside down in an instant.
When he landed, Yang Yueshan had no breath.
Zhou Yuan's powerful blow completely shattered his internal organs.
Seeing this situation, there was an uproar in the audience, and everyone was shocked. It was obvious that Yang Yueshan was several times stronger than Wu Xun, but he was still killed by Zhou Yuan after more than ten rounds.
Many people started talking in low voices, naturally talking about Zhou Yuan's true strength.
Obviously Zhou Yuan's cultivation level is only at the third level of foundation building, and he has no martial arts seal. He has only been practicing the Xiaobai Meridian Body Fighting Technique for a few days. He has not even condensed his spiritual energy, but he is still so powerful.
At this moment, everyone felt that Zhou Yuan's strength was becoming increasingly vague and almost difficult to predict.
However, surprise comes as no one believes that Zhou Yuan can survive this round of battle, because real masters like Luo Hongfei and Huang Gao have not yet appeared.
In the pavilion next to the arena, the eldest prince Yun Chen and the third prince Yun Zheng were sitting side by side.
Seeing Zhou Yuan knocking Yang Yueshan off the ring, Yun Zheng looked calm and without any disturbance, as if the death of a subordinate had no impact on him.
But Yunchen next to him had a face full of surprises. Zhou Yuan's previous words to reassure him were indeed not just words.
"Brother, what do you think of this Zhou Yuan, compared with Zhao Long, Wang Ziyu and others who were around you before?" Yun Zheng took a sip of tea and asked softly.
Upon hearing this question, the smile on Yunchen's face stopped abruptly.
Zhao Long, Wang Ziyu and others were the people that Yunchen admired most in the past. They had nothing to say about their qualifications, strength and character.
But in the end, they all died in the arena of life and death in the form of a wheel battle.
Because of this, Yun Chen cherished his life and had repeatedly advised Zhou Yuan not to go against Yun Zheng.
"There is no need to make any comparisons between them, because they are all my best friends and have the same status in my heart. Unlike you, so many people follow you wholeheartedly, but you only treat them as tools."
Yun Chen said coldly.
Yun Zheng smiled and showed disdain, "Brother, you are still the same as before, sitting in the position of a prince but not doing what a prince should do. No wonder even my father looks down on you."
The reason why Yunchen has poor qualifications and does not like to participate in politics, but he is still appointed as the prince is because he is the eldest son.
As long as the other princes are willing to work hard and Emperor Yun himself is willing, sooner or later he will deprive Yun Chen of his status as prince and give him to the most capable prince.
Facing Yun Zheng's disdainful words, Yun Chen snorted coldly and said nothing more.
"The second competition begins, who's coming?" Beside the ring, Leng Huayuan moved his appreciative eyes away from Zhou Yuan, and then shouted loudly.
The next moment, a figure jumped onto the ring one step ahead of the others.
"I'll meet you."
The person who spoke was none other than Huang Gao.
"What? Senior Brother Huang comes on stage so soon, can't he wait any longer?"
"You don't know that Senior Brother Huang is impatient? He always likes quick decisions."
"It's too fast and doesn't give anyone else a chance. Qin Shao and Lu Liangrong haven't played yet."
Everyone in the audience exclaimed.
It can be seen that just now Qin Shao, Lu Liangrong and others were preparing to go on stage, but Huang Gao took the lead and jumped onto the ring. This was not giving them a chance at all.
You know, Qin Shao and Lu Liangrong can only rank fourth and fifth on the inner sect rankings.
But Huang Gao is the second-ranked being on the inner sect list. His strength is enough to crush ten Yang Yueshan.
If even Huang Gao was knocked out of the ring by Zhou Yuan, how could Qin Shao and Lu Liangrong be so embarrassed?
They all signed life and death documents. If Huang Gao couldn't defeat Zhou Yuan, they would have no choice but to go up and die. However, there were still a few pessimistic people.
Many people believed that Huang Gao was able to kill Zhou Yuan this time, which was equivalent to saving the lives of Qin Shao and Lu Liangrong.
