"Hold it!"
Seeing the cold faces, Chen Nan said, "This is a personal feud between me and Ao Hanye. I advise you not to meddle!"
A middle-aged man said angrily, "Senior Brother Ao's matters are our matters. How can we stand by and watch if you disrespect him?"
Although Ao Hanye had lost popular support!
He was still the First Saint Son!
He still had some die-hard fans!
"Xuanyuan Yue, today you will know the consequences of offending Senior Brother Ao!"
"Take him down!"
The battle was imminent!
More than ten experts at the Nascent Soul stage made their move, and the scene was quite intense!
Even though their cultivation had been suppressed to the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage!
But they had rich combat experience, and their moves were vicious!
However, it was a pity!
Their opponent was Chen Nan!
"This was originally a grievance between me and Ao Hanye. Since you want to meddle, don't blame me for not showing mercy to our fellow disciples!" Chen Nan punched out!
*Poof!*
The middle-aged man who had just approached him was sent flying more than ten meters with a single punch!
At the same time, Chen Nan suddenly turned and followed up with a whip kick!
He instantly kicked away a powerful opponent!
Even though everyone's cultivation was at the same starting point, Chen Nan's combat experience was far richer than anyone else's!
Of course!
The most important thing was his formidable physique!
This point alone surpassed everyone else!
In an instant!
Those more than ten middle-aged men were beaten until they vomited blood!
It wasn't that they didn't want to fight back, but they simply didn't have the chance!
The scene was silent!
If you say he can't fight... yet his strength is formidable!
If you say he can fight... yet he doesn't use any complicated moves!
In short, he was just ferocious!
He was like a human-shaped weapon!
"Come, come, hand over all your Dragon Scale Tokens!" Chen Nan said, forcefully snatching the Dragon Scale Tokens from them, causing waves of dissatisfaction!
After all, one token was enough!
Having so many was useless!
After collecting twelve Dragon Scale Tokens, Chen Nan looked at Ao Hanye, whose face was gloomy, "Your lackeys are no good, too weak. Do you want to fight me, or will you obediently hand over the Dragon Scale Token in your hand?"
Ao Hanye gritted his teeth, "Xuanyuan Yue, you already have twelve Dragon Scale Tokens, why do you need this one from me?"
Chen Nan shook his head, "Although I have twelve Dragon Scale Tokens, they are not important to me!"
"Yes, let alone if I only have twelve Dragon Scale Tokens!"
"Even if I had nineteen hundred and ninety-nine, they would be like scrap iron in my eyes!"
"Because I am a person of principle. I promised to get the Dragon Scale Token from your hand, so how could I go back on my word?"
"A person without trust cannot stand!"
The onlookers almost burst into laughter!
They could all tell that Chen Nan was humiliating Ao Hanye for breaking the seal a month ago!
"If you want the Dragon Scale Token in my hand, you have to see if you have the strength!"
Ao Hanye roared and charged directly at Chen Nan!
His strength had also improved in the past month, especially his physical fitness, which had made leaps and bounds!
He punched Chen Nan's chest!
But he let out a cry of pain and retracted his fist!
"Are you a devil? How can your physique be so terrifying?" Ao Hanye trembled with fear. He thought his strength had improved significantly, but he still felt an inexplicable sense of pressure when fighting Chen Nan!
"It's just that you're too weak?" Chen Nan swung his palm and sent him flying!
At the same time, the token in Ao Hanye's embrace also fell to the ground!
"Wouldn't it have been easier if you had handed it over earlier?" Chen Nan said with a look of disdain, casually tossing the twelve Dragon Scale Tokens he had previously obtained into the distance, and said to the disciples who had not obtained any Dragon Scale Tokens, "Opportunities have arrived, go and grab them!"
After saying this, he turned and left the small world!
But behind him, Ao Hanye's angry roar came, "Xuanyuan Yue, I will not rest until I am even with you!"
As the First Saint Son, being defeated by Chen Nan a month ago was already hard for him to accept, let alone this brat blocking the exit of the small world to snatch his Dragon Scale Token!
Chen Nan's actions had ignited his killing intent!
------
After leaving the small world, Chen Nan did not hand over the tokens!
Because this was the pass to the third level!
"Yue'er, come with me!"
Ye Hongyi's voice entered Chen Nan's mind!
Chen Nan did not know why Ye Hongyi was calling him, but he still followed her to her residence!
"I want to know, what have you experienced to be like a completely different person?" Ye Hongyi's tone was calm, but her deep eyes were captivating!
Even Chen Nan dared not meet her gaze!
Because he knew that Ye Hongyi must have suspected his identity!
After all, Xuanyuan Yue was a timid and cowardly person in the sect!
But he was not afraid!
He had already thought of an excuse!
"My disciple benefited greatly from descending the mountain this time!" Chen Nan said, "People in the mortal world say that once a man is married, he is no longer a child, and he must learn to take responsibility and protect the people he wants to protect!"
"Therefore, the old Xuanyuan Yue is dead!"
"I want to become stronger, only then can I protect my wife!"
"And protect you, Master!"
"Yes, you protected your disciple before, and from now on, your disciple will protect you!"
His eyes were firm, with a hint of shyness!
Because he knew Ye Hongyi's personality, she could not stand such heartwarming words!
As expected, a trace of inexplicable nervousness appeared in Ye Hongyi's eyes, and she even hesitated to look at Chen Nan's eyes!
"I called you here this time to talk about the third level of the assessment!"
Ye Hongyi changed the subject, "The third level is a life-and-death battle, requiring entry into the ancient battlefield of gods and demons!"
"Ancient battlefield of gods and demons?" Chen Nan was full of doubt, Xuanyuan Yue's memories did not contain such things!
Ye Hongyi: "The ancient battlefield of gods and demons is the only undeveloped forbidden land in our world. Although this battlefield has been abandoned for countless years, it is inhabited by too many powerful demonic beasts!"
"And the will of gods and demons!"
"Although many of us want to develop this battlefield of gods and demons, there are super strong restrictions in this forbidden land!"
"Experts at the Out-of-Body stage cannot enter!"
She said, and a black wooden sword appeared in her hand, with traces of knives and swords left on it!
But Chen Nan knew that this was Ye Hongyi's spirit sword!
It was a mid-grade spirit artifact!
"I give you this sword for self-defense!" Ye Hongyi said, "Remember, if you encounter danger, leave immediately. It's no big deal if you can't complete the third level of the assessment!"
"As for entering the Dragon's Nest, your Master will help you solve it!"
Chen Nan, with mixed feelings, accepted Ye Hongyi's spirit sword!
Impersonating Xuanyuan Yue and deceiving Ye Hongyi gave him a strong sense of guilt!
And now!
The only thing he could do was to achieve excellent results in the grand competition!
Not for anything else, just to feel a little better in his heart!
