Martial Master

“This little brother, since Master Zuo Wei has already conceded, shouldn't the passage be opened now?”

“Your Excellency clearly stated before that once the bet is over, you would open the entrance passage immediately and would not go back on your word, right?”

“Quickly open the passage.”

Seeing Zuo Wei willingly concede, everyone immediately looked towards Qin Chen.

What they feared the most was Qin Chen going back on his word and not opening the passage.

“Everyone, rest assured, this Young Master keeps his word and will not be like Zuo Wei.”

Qin Chen smiled lightly, waving his hand, and the passage instantly opened before everyone.

The crowd was taken aback, clearly not expecting Qin Chen to be so decisive; he opened it without the slightest hesitation.

“Consider yourself smart, brat!”

Zhou Xun coldly glared at Qin Chen. He had been pondering for a long time about what to do if Qin Chen did not open the entrance, to make him obedient.

Unexpectedly, Qin Chen gave him no chance at all.

At this moment, among the crowd outside the ruins, a figure in a black cloak was coldly observing Qin Chen.

“It is this person who killed Elder Blood Eagle? Fortunately, I arrived in time. The aura of the Lord of the Docks still lingers on him; if I delay any longer, I might lose track of him.”

The cloaked man’s expression was cold; he was the Elder of the Blood Demon Sect who had traveled from afar.

In fact, he had been here for more than just a moment.

He had clearly seen everything that Qin Chen had done earlier.

“The order given to me by the Lord of the Docks is to capture this person alive. But now the entrance to the center of the ruins is in his hands, and if I act rashly, I will surely draw the attention of others. It's better to wait for an opportunity to strike and capture him quietly.”

The cloaked man squinted, his thoughts swirling.

“Whoosh!”

As the thoughts of the crowd swirled, the middle-aged Martial Venerable who had previously been stopped by Qin Chen suddenly reacted and was the first to rush into the entrance.

“Buzz!”

A beam of light swept past him, and he instantly disappeared into the entrance, entering the ruins.

“This kid is quite cunning, actually the first to go in.”

“Let’s hurry and go in too.”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Seeing this, the many martial artists in the ruins could no longer hold back and dashed towards the entrance, clearly wanting to enter the ruins before anyone else.

As the strong from various factions entered the ruins one by one, the gathered Martial Venerables outside the ruins immediately became anxious.

All the martial artists who came to the Black Death Swamp had a simple goal: to search for treasures.

Now that the entrance to the ruins was right in front of them but they could not enter, how could they not be anxious?

“Let’s go in!”

“Charge in!”

A few leading peak Martial Venerables could no longer contain themselves and shouted as they charged towards the ruins.

However, before they could rush into the ruins, a sharp blade light slashed through the air with a whoosh. The leading peak Martial Venerables were instantly cleaved in half, their blood and entrails splattering everywhere.

Such a horrific scene immediately caused the other Martial Venerables to retreat in horror, their faces filled with shock as they stared at the corpses.

“Only top-tier forces are qualified to enter the ruins. Others, step back; otherwise, there will be no mercy.” Zhou Xun coldly snorted.

Beside him, a Martial Venerable from the Great Zhou Dynasty held a battle knife, his face twisted in a sinister expression. He extended his tongue and lightly licked the blood off his battle knife, revealing a look of intoxication, terrifyingly eerie.

It was he who had acted first, killing those peak Martial Venerables.

“Why? Why is it only you who can enter?”

“Right, we are all martial artists here for training in the Black Death Swamp. Why are you the only ones qualified?”

Some voiced their discontent, angrily shouting from the crowd.
