Chapter 1830: Chapter 1824: Are These Intern Disciples?

"Mr. Gu, don’t act recklessly!" Ling Xi shouted towards Zhang Menglong and the others.

These apprentice disciples, at most, could control Thunder and Lightning among those cannon fodder soldiers. Even when encountering some squad leader-level people, they might not be able to quickly resolve the battle. And now it’s very clear that they intend to block those inner disciples of the Divine Profound Hall. Isn’t this a suicidal act?

However, in the next moment, Ling Xi’s basic understanding of Sunset Sect disciples was overturned.

The more than 300 disciples of the Divine Profound Hall had already charged into the rear of the Shenxiao Empire. After killing an unknown number of soldiers and squad leaders, they were now engaged in fierce combat with the Legion Commanders of the Shenxiao Empire.

This time the Shenxiao Empire dispatched as many as two legion commanders, totaling over 1200 people, just to halt the advance of those inner disciples of the Divine Profound Hall.

Unfortunately, the gap between them was simply too large. With just one encounter, over 100 Legion Commanders were directly killed, and even more than 200 were injured to varying degrees.

Both sides were at a stalemate in mid-air, the people of the Shenxiao Empire all had solemn expressions on their faces.

"Step aside! Reaching this level of cultivation wasn’t an easy task for you, it’s advised not to seek your own demise here."

"Never!" A Legion Commander of the Shenxiao Empire spoke, blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, his warblade trembling with the anger of jealousy.

"If so, then die!"

"Hmm?"

The inner disciples of the Divine Profound Hall suddenly turned their gaze toward the 8000 figures behind them, who had bypassed the rear of the Shenxiao Empire and were directly charging toward them.

"Hahaha, how come there’s a group of apprentice disciples?"

"Are the elders of the Sunset Sect foolish, sending a bunch of apprentice disciples to their deaths? Is there no one else to showcase in the whole Sunset Sect?"

"Shouldn’t we just send someone over to wipe them all out?"

"Frankly, these apprentice disciples are becoming increasingly useless, especially this year’s. According to those outer sect disciples, during admission, not a single one dared to utter a sound."

"I’ll go!" An inner disciple stepped out.

"Hmm, Wu Yang, it’s up to you."

...

"Why are they coming over?" Xiu Miao and the others, who were in the midst of a fierce battle with the disciples of the Divine Profound Hall at the front, suddenly changed their expressions. Facing this group of inner disciples of the Divine Profound Hall, apart from Zhang Menglong, the others probably couldn’t withstand even one move, rushing forward recklessly was simply seeking death!

"These little fellows are simply being reckless!" Some kind-hearted inner disciples became anxious upon seeing this scene, but they were all tied down and had no way to free themselves to help.

"Still in the mood to care for your junior disciples while fighting us?" The inner disciples of the Divine Profound Hall continued to taunt, even injuring several people while they were distracted.

...

"Just one came?" Seeing the disciple of the Divine Profound Hall called Wu Yang, the apprentice disciples of the Sunset Sect were immediately dissatisfied.

"Look down on us, do you? Daring to come alone and show off?"

"How are they so bold?" Although this was their first true engagement after three years of training, their confidence in their own strength had already reached a peak, because all of them, over 8000 people, had completely mastered the first layer of the Nine Nether Sunset Art, and some even started to comprehend the second layer!

"I’ll go beat him!"

"Why you?"

"I’ll go!"

"Do you understand what ’ladies first’ means?"

"Do you understand what respecting the young and old means? I’m the youngest among these apprentice disciples!"

"Rock-paper-scissors to decide!"

Wu Yang was about to make a move but was stunned by the Sunset Sect disciples who were playing rock-paper-scissors, what did they mean?

"Hahaha, I won, I’ll go first!" An apprentice disciple laughed as he flew out from the crowd, his name was He You, his strength had already reached the realm of a First-grade Divine Cultivator, making him one of the more outstanding among these outer sect disciples.

"What does this mean? An outer sect disciple wants to stop me?" Compared to anger, Wu Yang felt more confused and puzzled in his heart. He wasn’t a fool; the people of the Sunset Sect wouldn’t just send themselves to die. Since he dared to face off alone, there must be a hidden plot!

He was simply overthinking it, there was no hidden plot!

"Nine Nether Sunset Art!" He You calmly spoke these five words, and in just an instant, his aura surged tenfold, and the force of destiny gathered around him caused blue energy flames to flare up around his eyes.

"What?" Wu Yang was taken aback.

Under the tenfold explosion of energy, this apprentice disciple’s aura was not at all weaker than his!

"Nine Nether Sunset Art! It’s the Nine Nether Sunset Art!" Princess Ling Xi on the city wall exclaimed.

In the Shenxiao Empire, many generals had backgrounds in the Sunset Sect, so she was well aware that in the Sunset Sect, there was a supreme cultivation technique called Nine Nether Sunset Art. It’s extremely difficult to comprehend, but once understood, surpassing levels in challenge becomes as easy as cutting melons, and it’s not just a matter of surpassing one or two levels.

"Nine Nether Sunset Art..." The inner disciples of the Sunset Sect felt complex emotions surge in their hearts upon sensing this power.

Just a moment ago, they were mocking these apprentice disciples for being reckless, some even for being ignorant and arrogant.

But upon learning that someone among them had comprehended the Nine Nether Sunset Art, suddenly everything made perfect sense, a First-grade Divine Cultivator who had comprehended the first layer of Nine Nether Sunset Art indeed had the power to contend with an inner disciple!

"Truly envious..."

"Indeed, we inner disciples who have studied for decades couldn’t even get started, eventually giving up, and now an apprentice disciple achieves this, making us grit our teeth in frustration!"

He You performed the Nine Nether Sunset Art, causing more surprise among others, but to Wu Yang standing before him, the most direct sensation was fear.

It seemed that within the entire Divine Profound Hall, Nine Nether Sunset Art had already become something that instilled psychological shadows in everyone. Just thinking of it makes people recall that day, that man, the corpses all over the floor, the shattered buildings...

"Nine Heavens Sunset Palm!" He You gently flipped his wrist, sending a palm strike toward Wu Yang.

Wu Yang held his breath, hurriedly deploying a cultivation technique to counter.

However, this Nine Heavens Sunset Palm was a martial art paired with the Nine Nether Sunset Art, its grade matching that of the Nine Nether Sunset Art, even stronger than the martial arts learned by some core disciples!

Plus, with Zhang Menglong’s comprehensive analysis and teaching, its power seemed not to be something that could be wielded by someone of this realm!

Wu Yang’s golden palm imprint instantly shattered, and he was sent flying, spitting blood.

With one move, an apprentice disciple directly defeated an inner disciple of the Divine Profound Hall!

"Wu Yang!"

"Go!" At this moment, those disciples of the Divine Profound Hall could no longer afford to kill off those Legion Commanders.

There’s an unwritten rule in the Divine Profound Hall, if you get the chance, and come across someone who mastered the Nine Nether Sunset Art, kill on sight!

"What, trying to bully with numbers?"

He You’s strength was certainly enough to handle one or two normal inner disciples, but facing over 300 at once was still a bit lacking.

However, the number of apprentice disciples from the Sunset Sect was even greater!

"Hit them hard!"

"300 people, huh? We have over 8000 here!"

"Nine Nether Sunset Art!"

...

"This..." A short distance away, Ling Xi’s expression was frozen.

Someone learned it? She could barely accept it, occasionally a genius among geniuses appearing is quite normal, right?

But for more than 8000 to suddenly appear, who can accept this?

"These are actually a group of apprentice disciples?"
