Chapter 2973 - I Will Knock You Down

Hiss……

Qian Renji took a cold breath. Jiang Chen was incredibly fast and they failed to react immediately. It was extremely difficult for Qian Renji to resist that powerful blow. Even though she was way stronger than Jiang Chen and capable of constraining him, this sword was overwhelming and impressive.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen was merely a new disciple, not a senior disciple. How could a new disciple have such extraordinary skills and talents? It was just unbelievable.

Lin Youkang used to think very highly of Jiang Chen’s ability and talent, but he was still shocked that Jiang Chen could defeat Xiao Qinglong easily. It was a great loss to the Outer Palace. He tried to stop Jiang Chen, but it was too late.

After three seconds, the entire martial arena was stirred with Jiang Chen’s victory. They burst into cheers and shouted for joy as it was an unprecedented result for the Ranking Battle. A new disciple managed to overcome all the difficulties, break down the barriers and make his own way to the final round. And at the moment, he was only one step away from the first place.

Everyone had doubts about Jiang Chen’s strength but he had become an unbeatable and unmatched opponent at the moment. Apparently, his spirit soared and seemed invincible after his victory.

“He is just too strong!”

“Jiang Chen is truly a terrifying opponent. I guess no one could knock him down in the Outer Palace.”

“I am just overwhelmed by his sword, this would be a remarkable and unforgettable moment in history.”

“Hahaha. I stopped my cultivation after a hundred years for this stunning and fantastic match. It’s been so worthwhile.”

Jiang Chen’s fame spread throughout the entire Outer Palace in a short period of time. There was a young man holding a longsword in the martial arena, standing calmly on the stage with an overbearing aura.

Only a few of them discussed Xiao Qinglong’s death. Losers are always in the wrong. The world was full of talented strong experts and the rising young generations tend to replace the old generation. Jiang Chen just proved it. The age of the Outer Palace’s Three Dragons had passed and none of them could stop Jiang Chen, except perhaps Chen Long.

The audiences had expectations of Chen Long. He would be their last hope to restore the Outer Palace’s dignity in the Ranking Battle.

The Outer Palace’s Three Dragons were said to be unbeatable and remarkable public figures in the world. Yu Chenglong was defeated, and Xiao Qinglong was utterly defeated by Jiang Chen and only Chen Long was left.

At that moment, Yu Chenglong was totally convinced by Jiang Chen. Even Xiao Qinglong was no match for him. Jiang Chen killed Xiao Qinglong at a lightning speed without leaving any trace. He could imagine how he would end up if he was the one who resisted that deadly blow. He was grateful for not meeting Jiang Chen in the previous rounds.

“This guy is terribly strong.”

Gu Maolu’s eyes were filled with astonishment and excitement. Jiang Chen had beaten off all his rivals in previous rounds and Chen Long would be his last opponent. After defeating Chen Long, he would become the number one in the Outer Palace and eventually earn himself an unrivalled reputation.

“That’s right, but this is not achieved in a day.”

Bai Ying said in a low voice.

“I agree. He didn’t show his true strength when he was dealing with the Jiang Brothers. He probably can fight me by that time.”

Yu Chenglong said with a serious look.

Bai Ying and Gu Maolu looked at each other, both of them were in shock. They said with one voice, at the same time.

“Oh, no way.”

“There is always someone who is more stunning than the geniuses and he is here to make everyone feel ashamed. And he is that kind of person. I noticed that his eyes are filled with determination and eagerness. An ordinary person will never have that kind of arrogant and unbeatable aura. I will never be his match if I don't manage to break through the Hierarch Realm.”

Yu Chenglong’s words shocked Bai Ying and Gu Maolu greatly. Yu Chenglong’s talents, achievements, efforts and determination was impressive, he was even a remarkable and respectable figure to countless people. However, he was still a vulnerable opponent for Jiang Chen and it showed the differences in their strengths.

“Perhaps Chen Long is the only person who can defeat Jiang Chen now.”

Yu Chenglong said lightly. He felt slightly relieved at that moment, but he wished to break through the Hierarch Realm. If that happened, he would be able to beat Jiang Chen.

“But it doesn’t sound terrible to beat Xiao Qinglong as he is merely a Late Divine King expert. I heard that Chen Long just crossed the threshold of the Hierarch Realm and he even challenged three Half-step Hierarch disciples in the Inner Palace. He is bound to break through the Hierarch Realm. The result of that match was a draw, so you can imagine how strong Chen Long is.”

Bai Ying said in a low voice, looking worried. Although it would be a golden opportunity for Jiang Chen to bring glory and reputation, this fight was full of danger and threat.

“Do you think that it is easy to win first place in the Outer Palace? In the past, I fought more than twenty rounds with Chen Long but I realized that there is a huge difference between us.”

Yu Chenglong shook his head and took a deep breath. The losers tend to be eliminated by the generations. Only the strong experts could stand firmly on the top and overlook the world.

Chen Long was staring at Jiang Chen silently, with sharp eyes. It seemed like he was going to pierce through Jiang Chen’s body.

“You just impressed me, Xiao Qinglong deserved what he got. But you have to get through me to become the top in the Outer Palace.”

Apparently, Chen Long was showing great interest in Jiang Chen. The moment that their eyes met, they were full of will to fight. Chen Long noticed a kind of strong determination and aggressiveness in this new disciple’s eyes.

“ Then, I will knock you down.”

Jiang Chen said lightly, wearing a faint smile. He looked confident and fearless. It felt like the person who stood in front of him was harmless.

“You’re mad, but this will be the last time you can act arrogantly. I don’t like Xiao Qinglong but I think I hate you more. I hate someone who disregards everything, so I am bound to shatter you to pieces today.”

Chen Long said calmly. As one of the strongest experts in the Outer Palace, he puffed up with pride. At that moment, Jiang Chen had to trample on his dignity if he wished to defeat him. But Chen Long would never allow Jiang Chen to get his wish. Once Chen Long obtained the Purple Devil Taro, he was certain that he would be able to break through the Hierarch Realm.

“Although Jiang Chen is like an irresistible and unbeatable opponent, Chen Long is not inferior to him either. There are some differences in strength between the other strong experts of Outer Palace’ Three Dragons and Xiao Qinglong.”

“Yes, let’s see if Chen Long could make a turnaround. Haha. I am keenly looking forward to this match.”

“Jiang Chen’s strength is beyond our expectations. I think the ultimate battle will become a legend in history. No matter who is the final winner, it will definitely be a popular and interesting story in the Profound Connection Divine Palace.”

“This new disciple is matchless, trying hard to win his title. If he succeeded in doing so, he will be remembered in history.”

Countless new disciples and old disciples waited with eager anticipation for the ultimate battle. They wondered if the previous winner could stand on his dignity. Or else, the new disciple would make it all the way to the top.
