How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

No Demon Academy's number one beauty, ranked fifth among the academy's geniuses, now looked pale and haggard, like a sandbag being thrown out of the martial arts stage.

Bang!

Shang Han's delicate body crashed to the ground, she groaned, and the blood slipping from the corner of her mouth stained her clothes red.

She still looked bewildered, seemingly unwilling to accept what had just happened.

As a genius ranked fifth in the No Demon Academy, she had been defeated by Chen Yu with a single punch, what a humiliation this was.

Logically speaking, both being from the No Demon Academy, Chen Yu should have shown her some face, like exchanging a few moves before defeating her.

But Shang Han knew that Chen Yu did not like her, hence not only did he not show mercy, he even used his hidden strength to defeat her swiftly.

The nearby spectators had thought this battle would be very exciting, fought intensely, but the outcome was always so unexpected.

Chen Yu once again won with a single strike, and many people didn't even catch the details of the fight.

"Chen Yu wins."

The referee announced Chen Yu's victory.

At this, an uproar erupted from the surroundings.

"How can Chen Yu be so strong? He defeated Shang Han, ranked fifth at No Demon Academy, with just one move, and he is only ranked thirteenth at No Demon Academy?"

"He's really strong. It seems he has always been holding back, but Shang Han is such a beauty and even from the same academy as Chen Yu, how could he be so ruthless to knock her away in one move…"

With this battle, Chen Yu finally made a name for himself.

Now, many people looked at Chen Yu with admiration and respect.

In a world where power is respected, that is just how it is.

"Brother Chen, you are too mighty…"

When Chen Yu came down, Yu Hong immediately spoke.

Thinking back, he had even agreed to Luo Haotian's challenge to Chen Yu, now thinking about it made him shudder.

At the top of a mountain peak, the lady in palace attire flashed a trace of astonishment and transmitted her voice to Yi Lantian, "Is he cultivating the 'Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record'? You actually let him cultivate such a technique?"

The lady in palace attire seemed surprised. She knew some of the ten great ancient techniques, and Sky Star Academy also possessed one of the ten great ancient techniques.

However, such techniques are extremely difficult to cultivate, and even Duan Xinyue was cultivating Sky Star Academy's definitive technique, the 'Dark Star Heavenly Palace Technique', rather than the ancient one.

Elsewhere on two other peaks, an elderly man with white eyebrows from Sky Sword Academy and a man in a golden cloud robe from Yunyang Academy seemed to have noticed something too.

After all, the True Qi and special physique displayed by Chen Yu were exceptional and very powerful.

Experts of their level, upon careful consideration, could roughly guess some details.

"Vice Dean Yi, you are really bold, allowing your disciple to cultivate such a technique..."

The white-browed old man also showed a trace of surprise.

If one cannot break through due to the difficulty of the technique, one's cultivation might also be limited. Even geniuses could remain stuck at a certain level for a long time, wasting a lot of time.

In this case, it would be more secure to cultivate a less difficult technique.

"He is a genius in this field!"

Yi Lantian answered simply.

Actually, initially, he did not intend for Chen Yu to cultivate the 'Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record'. It was Chen Yu who wanted to participate in the academy competition and needed to enhance his strength quickly; this technique was the best choice, and Chen Yu wanted to try it.

At that time, he hesitated, but now, he was confident it was the right decision.

The heads of the other three major academies were skeptical of Yi Lantian's words.

Since ancient times, many had challenged the ancient great techniques, but only a very few succeeded.

However, if the heads of the other three major academies knew that Chen Yu had been cultivating the 'Heavenly Demon Secret Pattern Record' for only half a year, they would certainly change their views.

Near martial arts platform number one, Luo Haotian's gloomy eyes stared intensely at Chen Yu.

"Lucky you. If you were on the same platform as me, I would make you lose face."

Luo Haotian clenched his fists, thinking inwardly.

He hadn't seen the process of Chen Yu defeating Shang Han, just the result, thus he believed he could still easily defeat Chen Yu.

It was just unfortunate that he was not assigned to the same platform as Chen Yu, and didn't get the chance to humiliate him personally.

"Luo Haotian versus Zhou Yuning!"

"My turn?"

Luo Haotian sneered coldly, striding onto the martial arts platform.

"Luo Haotian is ranked second at No Demon Academy, and Zhou Yuning is ranked third at Sky Sword Academy; this battle should be extremely exciting."

The attention of most of the nearby people immediately focused on martial arts platform number one.

Opposite Luo Haotian, a slender man with sword-like eyebrows stood on the platform like a sword, his eyes firmly fixed on Luo Haotian.

"Take my sword."

Zhou Yuning bellowed, and without even seeing him unsheathe his sword, a red fiery glow descended from the sky, slashing towards Luo Haotian.

"Mere tricks."

Luo Haotian's expression remained unchanged, and a hot black stream suddenly burst from his body, quickly accumulating on his fist, unleashing a boxing technique, blasting out a black fiery dragon-like stream.

Boom~

The red sword light and the hot black stream intertwined and tore at each other, gradually extinguishing.

Zhou Yuning's gaze intensified; as a Sword Cultivator, renowned for his attacking power, although the clash seemed evenly matched, he had actually been at a disadvantage.

Swoosh!

"Sun Flame Annihilation."

Zhou Yuning's sword in hand, he swung repeatedly, unleashing a vast sea of sword-light flames, pressing forward.

This time, Luo Haotian no longer held the relaxed posture from before; he could see Zhou Yuning was going all out.

Whoosh—

Within the hot black flow around Luo Haotian's body, another layer of fierce white light emerged, which was the Bai Chi Bloodline of the Luo Family.

Luo Haotian's bloodline was very compatible with his technique, boosting his strength considerably at this moment; he struck out a black-and-white intertwined flame dragon.

Boom!

The battle between the two shocked all around, intensely fierce.

Luo Haotian was overwhelmingly powerful, clashing head-on with the Sword Dao Practitioner without the slightest hint of falling into disadvantage.

They exchanged hundreds of moves, each unleashing their hidden combat skills.

"White Shuo True Fire!"

Luo Haotian unleashed true fire, combining it with his bloodline and combat skills, greatly producing a fierce howling black and white flame dragon, stirring up a layer of shockwaves and heat waves.

Boom!

Zhou Yuning's Sword Skill Kill Technique was broken by Luo Haotian, the residual force of the flames struck out, sending Zhou Yuning flying to the edge of the arena.

Seeing Luo Haotian closing in, Zhou Yuning conceded defeat.

Though he lost to Luo Haotian, there was still hope for him to enter the final battle; if he got too injured here, he might not have that chance.

"Hahaha..."

Luo Haotian let out a loud laugh, stepped down from the arena, and looked towards Chen Yu as if to show off.

Chen Yu was indeed watching Luo Haotian's battle, but he paid no mind to Luo Haotian's bravado, quickly turned his head, and looked towards another arena where Ye Luofeng was fighting.

Ye Luofeng's opponent was Wei Bin from the No Demon Academy.

"Gaga, I have long heard of the Ice Mountain Fairy from the Sky Sword Academy. Today, it is my honor, Wei Bin, to come into close contact with the fairy!"

Wei Bin stared at Ye Luofeng and laughed loudly.

Many nearby cast disdainful glances at this scene.

"Suddenly, I find the Ice Mountain Fairy to be a hundred times more beautiful than I imagined!" a student said excitedly.

"Idiot, that's because Wei Bin from the No Demon Academy is too ugly."

Compared to the Ice Mountain Fairy Ye Luofeng, Wei Bin was unspeakably ugly; the contrast between the two standing together was stark.

"Pity, Wei Bin was ranked eighth at the Late Innate stage in the No Demon Academy, now that he has broken through to the peak, he's probably even stronger!"

The crowd couldn't help but feel sorry for Ye Luofeng, such a beauty about to be defeated by the ugly Wei Bin.

While others discussed, Ye Luofeng and Wei Bin had already begun their fight.

In an instant, a wild barrage of fiery blade energy collided with the sharp icy sword light.

"Haha, the Ice Mountain Fairy is indeed strong!"

Wei Bin laughed loudly, his attacks becoming even more ferocious, a wave of fiery heat rushing forward.

"Cold Light Moon!"

Ye Luofeng's expression remained unchanged, her jade sword chillingly impressive as she fiercely repelled an advancing layer of fiery blade waves.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

The icy sword light struck continuously, like sharp ice spikes.

Ten moves, twenty moves, a hundred moves, Ye Luofeng still hadn't been defeated.

"Luofeng is calm and good at identifying the enemy's weaknesses. Although Wei Bin initially had the advantage, as the battle drags on, Ye Luofeng will surely win."

Beside her, Ye Chengfeng spoke softly, watching Ye Luofeng with a flicker in his eyes.

As Ye Chengfeng predicted, after a hundred and fifty moves, Wei Bin fell into a disadvantage.

At an opportune moment, Ye Luofeng suddenly burst forth and defeated Wei Bin.

"Such a fearsome Sword Dao talent, this woman must be the leader from the Sky Sword Academy in the mortal world."

...

When Chen Yu was watching the fights on other arenas.

"Chen Yu versus Lv Qiuling!"

On arena number four, the referee's voice sounded.

Chen Yu knew it was his turn again after another round.

"This is bad, Chen Yu is in trouble now!"

"Lv Qiuling is ranked second among the strong contenders from the Sky Star Academy, and is a powerful Beast Tamer. It's likely Chen Yu won't even touch the hem of her robe before being defeated by her Spirit Pet."

Though Chen Yu had defeated Shang Han, compared to top talents like Lv Qiuling, there was still a huge gap.

"Chen Yu, this time, let's see where you can run!"

Lv Qiuling stepped onto the stage and sneered.

At the start of the trial, Chen Yu was indeed running, and during the scramble for a treasure turtle, he had snatched the item and slipped away amid the chaos.

After her Token was stolen by Chen Yu, Lv Qiuling thought about revenge, but she had never found Chen Yu.

"Haha, run? I wonder who it was during the trials chased by me and ended up handing over their Token obediently."

Chen Yu couldn't help but laugh out loud.

This statement immediately caused an uproar at the scene.

"That's impossible, how could Lv Qiuling have been chased by Chen Yu, that guy really talks big."

The crowd didn't believe what Chen Yu had said.

"You... If it wasn't for you teaming up with Jin Zhuo Peak and using a trap to kill my Spirit Pet, you would have died by my hands long ago."

Lv Qiuling's face turned red with anger as she retorted.

But her words undoubtedly confirmed that she had indeed been chased by Chen Yu.

The higher-ups of the No Demon Academy were startled, not expecting that during the trial, Chen Yu and Jin Zhuo Peak had indeed tricked Lv Qiuling.

Swoosh~

Lv Qiuling immediately released more than a dozen Spirit Pets from her pet bag.

She decided to stop talking and to settle the score with a victory to regain her reputation.

Chen Yu glanced at the Spirit Pets; most were at the Late Innate stage, only two or three at the Innate Peak.

He couldn't help but smirk, thinking such a lineup of Spirit Pets also thought to take him on.

However, Lv Qiuling herself was also quite strong, possessing Half-step True Essence, so he shouldn't underestimate her.
