Martial Master

"I admit defeat."

He shouted, not daring to slacken his efforts as he unleashed countless palm shadows with his hands. The immense force of his fists, akin to ancient deities, seemed capable of destroying the heavens and earth, causing the entire square to shake violently and the ground to crack in numerous places.

However, Qin Chen sneered, with the endless power within him churning, brewing, exploding, and ascending.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Chen swung his nameless sword with his right hand. With a 'puff' sound, the myriad fist shadows displayed by Yun Mengze were instantly sliced apart.

In an instant, Qin Chen threw a punch.

Boom! This punch seemed like a war god descending from the heavens, causing the world to collapse and plunge into eternal darkness. All the Sage Law surrounding Yun Mengze shattered completely.

The crowd then saw Yun Mengze's body being struck into the air, blood spraying from his mouth. His arms were broken, his limbs completely shattered, leaving him unrecognizable and drenched in blood.

Swish! A figure flashed—it was Qin Chen, grabbing Yun Mengze by the head as if holding a dead fish.

The entire process seemed lengthy when recounted, but it happened in an instant. The weapon Yun Mengze had refined was shattered, and even his entire being was crippled, resembling a dead dog, held in Qin Chen's hand with blood continuously dripping.

This brutal scene left everyone stunned.

At the Tian Gong's Refiner assessment assembly, Qin Chen was so ruthless that he brutally crippled a state-level prodigy. It was too wild, too arrogant.

"Qin Chen, stop!"

Master Mu Ye shouted in shock and anger.

He never expected things to escalate to this point. Although he was quite displeased with Yun Mengze questioning the Tian Gong, the other party was still a state-level prodigy from Yunzhou and the second place in the Tian Gong's assessment. If he allowed Yun Mengze to be killed by Qin Chen here, it would be impossible for the Tian Gong to conclude the situation peacefully.

"Qin Chen, let go of Yun Mengze."

Master Mu Ye said angrily.

"Qin Chen, release my son."

A furious roar echoed from the sky. Boom! It was Yun Dongguang, who rushed down with the Heaven-Opening Axe appearing in his hand. He glared at Qin Chen with a murderous intent that even an ocean of heavenly water couldn't wash away.

"Qin Chen, don't be reckless!"

"Let's talk this out."

"First, release Yun Mengze."

In the sky, Tian Xing Zhenren, Elder Chu Ye, Pavilion Master Wan Xinde, and others appeared, all pale-faced, trying to dissuade Qin Chen.

They were not afraid of Qin Chen offending Yun Dongguang. Instead, they were concerned that if he killed the second place in the Tian Gong's assessment assembly, even as the champion, Qin Chen would not be able to quell the anger of the Tian Gong's refiner division. At that time, no one could save him.

It was completely unnecessary.

"Master Mu Ye, everyone, today Yun Mengze must die, not because he questioned me, but because he is the one truly cheating."

Facing the encirclement of so many Heavenly Saints, Qin Chen remained calm and composed, with a fleeting intense killing intent in his eyes.

"Not good!"

Yun Dongguang's pupils contracted.

"Die!"

Qin Chen's gaze turned cold as he gripped Yun Mengze's head with his left hand, ready to crush him to death.

"Stop it."

Boom! Yun Dongguang roared, his voice carrying an overwhelming power as an unparalleled axe light pierced through.

It was the Heaven-Opening Axe, long prepared for this thunderous strike to save Yun Mengze.

"Qin Chen, stop immediately!"

Others shouted, even Tian Xing Zhenren did not help Qin Chen, as even he did not want to see Qin Chen kill Yun Mengze. In such a situation, if Qin Chen really killed Yun Mengze, not even a deity could save him.

They preferred Yun Dongguang to save Yun Mengze, so none of them moved.

But who knew, facing Yun Dongguang's attack, Qin Chen remained unmoved.

"Just you?"

"Yun Dongguang, the person I want to kill, no one can stop, including you!"

Qin Chen did not even turn his head back. The boundless aura leaked from his right hand's nameless sword, and with a flick of his hand, the Origin Sword was unleashed. Instantly, the sword light shone, bearing the origin of the universe as it collided with the Heaven-Opening Axe.
