Chapter 47: True Dragon
No one doubted An Mu’s words or thought that he was bragging. After all, he had just withstood Zuo Fu’s God-rank Divine Magic and emerged from it unscathed!
The spectators’ eyes were all on Ye Guan, and they all thought that Ye Guan was just asking for trouble.
Zhao Su chuckled. “He truly is an interesting brat!”
Ye Guan’s challenge caught Zhao Su off guard. She didn’t expect that Ye Guan would still have the guts to challenge An Mu after seeing An Mu withstand Zuo Fu’s God-rank Divine Magic.
An Mu hadn’t really attacked Zuo Fu, but even a child could deduce An Mu’s strength from how the former had used Fist Intent and withstood Zuo Fu’s God-rank Divine Magic.
Was it confidence, or was it arrogance? The spectators would soon find out.
Amidst everyone’s gaze, Ye Guan slowly walked toward An Mu. He smiled slightly and asked, “Can we start?”
An Mu nodded. “Sure.”
Swoosh!
Ye Guan abruptly disappeared.
An Mu’s eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly lifted his right arm in front of his throat.
Thump!
A dull noise echoed as An Mu blocked Ye Guan’s attack toward his throat.
Ye Guan wasn’t done just yet.
He swung his leg toward An Mu’s crotch, but his kick struck nothing but air because An Mu had already retreated.
Meanwhile, An Mu had just retreated, but Ye Guan was already in front of him once more.
An Mu raised his hand and punched Ye Guan in front of him.
Boom!
An Mu’s fist shattered space itself, but it failed to hit Ye Guan.
An Mu’s pupils constricted.
Ye Guan was already on his flank, and the latter’s punch was already flying toward his temple.
Boom!
An Mu was sent flying, but Ye Guan caught up to the flying An Mu and punched the former’s throat.
Boom!
An Mu continued flying, and Ye Guan caught up to him once more before sending another punch.
A strange scene unfolded on the wasteland. An Mu was surrounded by Ye Guan’s afterimages, and he looked like he was stuck in mid-air as Ye Guan kept on sending him flying with punches.
It was a strange but terrifying scene.
The spectators were stunned upon realizing that An Mu had already flown more than thirty meters, but he still hadn’t landed on the ground.
Ye Guan was keeping him stuck in mid-air using nothing but speed!
The scene was so unreal that the spectators had to pick their jaws up from the floor.
Wasn’t he from Nanzhou? Why was he so strong?
Yuan Gu stared at Ye Guan in disbelief. “What a terrifying speed!”
Zhao Su nodded slightly. She was taken aback as well. Ye Guan’s speed had increased by many times compared to the first time she met him. It seemed that the little brat had trained as hard as he could for the martial contest.
Boom!
A terrifying power erupted from An Mu.
Ye Guan had already retreated somewhere far away before An Mu could even do anything. His evasive prowess dumbfounded everyone. However, the spectators were more surprised to see that An Mu was still alive despite Ye Guan’s relentless attacks.
In fact, he was unscathed! Was he a physique cultivator?
The spectators stared at An Mu in shock. An Mu stretched his neck and cracked his bones. He stared deeply at Ye Guan and said, “You have surprised me. I have to admit that you are superior to me in terms of speed!”
Ye Guan was silent. He had unleashed many powerful attacks, but he didn’t manage to deal any substantial damage to An Mu at all.
Is he really a Physique Cultivator? Ye Guan was slightly puzzled.
“You’re quick, but it’s a pity that you’re not strong enough to break my defenses,” An Mu remarked. He opened his right palm and slammed it on the ground.
Boom!
In an instant, the earth trembled violently, and the power in the depths of the earth flowed into An Mu’s palm.
“Great Earth Force!” exclaimed someone from the audience stand.
Ye Guan abruptly vanished.
An Mu’s eyes flashed with cold light. He swung his right arm fiercely and roared, “Earth Rupture!”
Boom!
The surrounding earth shattered and flew into the air. At the same time, a domineering wave of energy resembling what An Mu had absorbed from the depths of the earth made a beeline for Ye Guan.
An Mu was trying to suppress Ye Guan’s speed forcefully.
An Mu’s attack seemed to be as powerful as Zuo Fu’s God-rank Divine Magic.
Zhao Su and a few audience members stood up. They were the only ones who could track Ye Guan’s movement, so they were on the edge of their seats.
Ye Guan sent a few punches.
At first glance, his punches seemed random, but they were actually aiming at the weakness of An Mu’s attack. It only took Ye Guan three punches to shatter An Mu’s attack, and he reappeared in front of An Mu like a ghost.
An Mu’s pupils constricted in disbelief as he stared at Ye Guan in front of him.
Boom!
An Mu was sent flying once more, and the same strange scene happened once again. Most of the spectators could only see Ye Guan’s afterimages as he suspended An Mu in the air by sending him flying away and catching up to him to send him flying once more.
Ye Guan’s attacks were so fast that An Mu seemed like he couldn’t even retaliate.
The spectators’ jaws dropped to the floor.
Yuan Gu’s expression turned ugly, and he couldn’t help but ask, “He’s a Spacetime Realm cultivator, right? Why is he so fast?”
Zhao Su was puzzled as well. Ye Guan’s speed was abnormal.
Luo Zhaoqi chimed in, “I saw him train in our trial tower. He was training in a tower that specializes in spacetime gravity!”
Zhao Su looked at her and asked, “Did he say which floor he managed to reach?”
Luo Zhaoqi muttered, “He said he reached the ninth floor...”
The ninth floor?! Zhao Su and Yuan Gu froze, and they looked at each other in shock.
Zhao Su muttered, “That explains his speed, and I think he even conquered the ninth floor.”
Luo Zhaoqi’s expression was complicated. She chuckled hollowly while staring at Ye Guan’s afterimages. She could still remember how she had mocked Ye Guan, not knowing that he had simply answered honestly.
She had truly made a fool of herself!
Luo Zhaoqi was both ashamed and angry. Why did he not even bother to correct me?
Meanwhile, Ye Guan was still attacking An Mu. He even took out his dagger to attack An Mu, but it was no use. An Mu’s physique was so strong that he couldn’t inflict substantial damage on the latter.
A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from An Mu.
Rumble!
Ye Guan’s pupils constricted. He moved away, but he was a beat too late.
Boom!
Ye Guan was sent flying.
The spectators were dumbfounded to see the illusory figure of a golden dragon hovering above An Mu.
A dragon? The spectators couldn’t make heads or tails of what they were seeing.
“A True Dragon!” Yuan Gu abruptly stood up. He was giddy with excitement as he stared at An Mu and said, “A True Dragon. It’s definitely a True Dragon from the True Dragon Clan on Zhongtu Divine Continent. He has actually been acknowledged by the True Dragon Clan! Hahaha!”
Yuan Gu laughed without any reservation.
A deafening silence descended on the wasteland, and it was so silent that one could hear a pin drop. They were talking about dragons here, and An Mu had actually been acknowledged by the most powerful dragons in existence—the True Dragons!
The spectators finally understood why An Mu’s physique was so sturdy, and it was all because a True Dragon was protecting him!
Ye Guan was stunned as he stared at the illusory golden dragon hovering above An Mu. He was truly caught off guard. He had never expected that An Mu was under the protection of a True Dragon.
A True Dragon! The books I’ve read in Nanzhou stated that a dragon is a creature that only exists in myths! Therefore, Ye Guan had never expected that he would see a dragon one day.
Ye Guan inwardly exclaimed, “Master Pagoda! It’s a dragon!”
Little Pagoda was speechless.
Meanwhile, An Mu glared at Ye Guan with a hideous expression.
“I have to admit. I did not expect that I would end up using one of my trump cards here,” he said. He had been trying his best to hide his trump cards, but he discovered that Ye Guan’s speed was simply too terrifying.
He felt that he had no choice but to use one of his trump cards. Otherwise, he could only take a beating. Ye Guan wasn’t strong enough to beat him to death, but he still had a reputation to uphold as Qingzhou’s representative.
Ye Guan’s eyes were fixed on the illusory True Dragon above An Mu. The True Dragon was a mere illusory figure because its true body existed within An Mu.
Ye Guan had to admit that he was slightly afraid of a dragon, but he wasn’t afraid of an illusory figure. So what if there was a True Dragon? Its main body was missing, so Ye Guan was prepared to give it a shot!
Ye Guan clenched his right fist. He would finally go all-out.
An Mu started walking toward Ye Guan. He glared at the latter and said fiercely, “Feel the power of the True Dragon Bloodline!”
Roaaaar!
An Mu roared, and the illusory True Dragon roared as well.
Boom!
The domineering aura of a True Dragon swept across the wasteland.
The spectators and the participants collapsed to the ground while trembling.
Bloodline suppression! How could the bloodline of ordinary humans withstand the domineering aura of the True Dragon Bloodline?
Some of the elders of the Upper Realm’s Guanxuan Academy even leaned forward, and they were trembling as they tried their best to avoid falling to the ground.
Zhao Su and Yuan Gu turned pale. They were powerful, but the bloodline suppression of the True Dragon’s Bloodline was simply too strong for them to endure without any suffering.
They were just humans, so it wasn’t strange that they found it difficult to resist the bloodline suppression of the True Dragon’s Bloodline despite their high cultivation bases.
However, the spectators were shocked to discover that Ye Guan was still standing straight despite taking the brunt of the bloodline suppression.
He looked unperturbed and completely unaffected.
