Feeling a strong sense of intimidation, although he was also a peak human venerable master, he was significantly inferior compared to Ouyang Chen.
However, now that he was on stage, and everyone present was a distinguished genius, it would be impossible for him to simply withdraw.
He immediately clasped his hands and said, "Please give me your guidance."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ouyang Chen had already moved. With a rumble, a palace swept out from Ouyang Chen's hand. The palace surged, emitting a vast aura, faintly dispersing the essence of a heavenly venerable.
This was actually a half-step heavenly venerable treasure.
Boom!
The palace struck the peak human venerable directly, and the man let out a muffled groan, having almost no strength to resist, he was sent flying and spat out blood on the spot.
Ouyang Chen retracted the palace and said lightly, "Does my friend still wish to make a move? Earlier, I only used thirty percent of my strength. If we continue to fight, this young hall master might have to use all his power, and it would not be good if I were to injure my friend."
The man's expression changed slightly, and he dared not continue the confrontation, immediately clasping his hands and saying, "I concede."
With that, he returned to the stands below.
Seeing this, Ji Xinyi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Finally, a celestial-level genius had taken the stage, so at least she would not feel too embarrassed.
After Ouyang Chen took the stage, several other top heavenly venerable forces also stepped forward.
Regardless of the circumstances, the Ji family was a top ancient clan, and Ji Xinyi was the daughter of the Ji family head, a peak human venerable genius. If they could form a marriage alliance with the Ji family, it would greatly benefit these top powers.
Not to mention, the Ji family possessed the bloodline of the ancient chaotic clan, making them an ancient race among humans. If a child born from the Ji family inherited the chaotic ancient clan bloodline, their future accomplishments would undoubtedly be extraordinary.
For a moment, the competition stage was bustling with activity.
Qin Chen and Divine Artisan Heaven Venerable were communicating; as long as no one challenged him, Qin Chen was too lazy to take action.
On another side, the Star God Palace Master and the Great Universe Mountain Lord were secretly discussing something.
"Star God Palace Master, are we just going to let this go?" the Great Universe Mountain Lord said coldly.
"Naturally, we cannot let it go like this," the Star God Palace Master replied with a chilling gaze. "Rui'er cannot die in vain, and now is the best opportunity to confront Qin Chen openly during this matchmaking competition. If we leave Ji's family and attack Qin Chen later, Tian Gong will surely be enraged, leading to a full-scale war. We will have no way to explain ourselves afterward."
"What should we do next?" the Great Universe Mountain Lord's expression turned sinister. "As long as I can kill Qin Chen, I can pay any price."
The Star God Palace Master also had a grim expression. Given the power Qin Chen had shown previously, even a peak earth venerable might struggle to kill him.
At the very least, it would take a half-step heavenly venerable.
However, this time they only brought Xing Rui and Yueshan, and they didn't even have one extra person, which made them furious.
Although the Ji family wasn't far from the Star God Palace and the Great Universe Mountain, it would take several days to dispatch experts from there, even with the use of various treasures.
Though a few days may not seem long, by that time, the matchmaking competition would have already concluded, and they would have no reason to challenge Qin Chen.
This matter had to be resolved before the matchmaking competition ended.
The two of them conspired in secret, exchanging glances, and suddenly turned to the Mad Thunder Heavenly Venerable from the Thunder God Sect.
The Mad Thunder Heavenly Venerable, feeling frustrated and angry because of the fall of Venerable Lei Ya, was coldly staring at Qin Chen when he suddenly felt the gaze of the Star God Palace Master and the Great Universe Mountain Lord beside him, prompting him to look over.
