Chapter 2566: Chapter 2569: Your Formation Is Too Slow

"This... how did you do it?"

The four young members of the Gold-devouring Rat Clan were stunned on the arena, looking incredulously at Jiang Chen, who was bathed in five-colored divine light.

"Your Devouring Path has a fatal flaw. If your opponent’s Primordial Spirit Power is much stronger than yours, you won’t be able to devour their power. I’ve just drawn the power out; if it were to explode around you, such a great amount of power would be lethal. You should pay attention to this in the future!"

Jiang Chen reminded them softly.

The four of them instantly understood, looking at Jiang Chen with shock.

They were aware of the flaw within this combat skill. Although the Gold-devouring Rat Clan belongs to the demonic beast groups, they are among the few that specialize in cultivating Primordial Spirit Power specifically to mitigate this flaw.

But unexpectedly, Jiang Chen, who was at the same realm, surpassed them so much in terms of Primordial Spirit Power, directly ignoring their Devouring Path and forcibly breaking through their Great Dao Combat Skill!

"We have learned our lesson!"

The young members of the Gold-devouring Rat Clan cupped their fists towards Jiang Chen and jumped off the arena, convinced of their defeat!

Jiang Chen smiled slightly and glanced at the other arenas, slightly surprised as three other arenas had already concluded their battles, where Huo Qiong, Su Qingpeng, and Ming Yang were located.

Noticing Jiang Chen’s gaze, Huo Qiong and Su Qingpeng cupped their fists towards him.

Jiang Chen blinked and instantly understood that these two probably recognized him, returning the gesture with a smile and a respectful nod.

Ming Yang, however, glanced at Jiang Chen, a fierce aura bursting from him, with intense battle intent blazing in his eyes.

Jiang Chen paused, somewhat puzzled, as he looked at Ming Yang.

"You are worthy of battling against me! If you join my underworld hall, I can make you my guard!"

Ming Yang called out indifferently, traces of bestowment appearing in his eyes.

Jiang Chen’s eyes flashed with astonishment, shaking his head amusingly.

"The Young Master is worthy of battling anyone, but are you?"

A voice with discontent echoed, and several people turned their heads to see Yan Hu standing beside Jiang Chen’s arena, staring intently at Ming Yang, with a hint of anger in his eyes.

Ming Yang’s choice of words towards Jiang Chen greatly displeased Yan Hu. Jiang Chen might not mind, but he couldn’t tolerate anyone belittling Jiang Chen.

"Kid, Ming Yang is the first in the Divine Infant Realm of our underworld hall; there aren’t many who can match him!"

Elder Wu of the underworld hall glanced at Yan Hu with pride in his eyes, filled with disdain.

"If it’s about that, no one in the same realm is worthy of battling against the Young Master! Let’s not mention making the Young Master his guard; even if he wants to be the Young Master’s guard, he should check whether he’s qualified!"

Yan Hu looked earnestly at Elder Wu.

"Young Master? He calls that Jiang Chen Young Master?"

"Such arrogant tone, saying no one is worthy of battling Jiang Chen. Who does he think Jiang Chen is? The Son of Heavenly Dao?"

"Even if he is the Son of Heavenly Dao, Ming Yang came from the underworld hall; who does he think he, someone from an elementary academy, can compare to?"

"No wonder he comes from a small place like Mingqian Realm, not much skill, but quite the arrogance! He really thinks everyone is the same as those trash from Mingqian Realm!"

"Claiming Ming Yang needs to qualify to be Jiang Chen’s guard, this is beyond arrogant!"

Yan Hu’s words incited displeasure among those of the same realm, even some cultivators of the Gold-devouring Rat Clan in the Void Refinement Realm cast dissatisfied looks at Yan Hu.

This was, after all, their Gold-devouring Rat Clan territory; such remarks seemed to disrespect their existence!

"Hmph! Such arrogant kid!"

Elder Wu snorted coldly, staring directly at Yan Hu, speaking in a deep voice: "Do you mean, even if I suppress my realm to Divine Infant Realm Peak, I wouldn’t be worthy to battle him?"

"Hu Zi!"

Yan Hu was about to respond when Jiang Chen softly called out, stopping him.

Glancing at Elder Wu, Jiang Chen turned to Ming Yang: "Brother, perhaps you see being worthy of battling you as a compliment and being your guard as a reward, but to others, these words might be somewhat inappropriate."

Ming Yang paused slightly, looking deeply at Jiang Chen, his gaze grew cold as he spoke deeply: "The next round allows free choice of arenas; do you dare come to mine?"

Swoosh!

A figure flashed, Jiang Chen leapt onto Ming Yang’s arena, answering with his actions.

"Damn, does he really dare to seek a match with Ming Yang?"

"This could ruin his opportunity to enter the ancestral land!"

"He truly lacks self-awareness!"

The surrounding crowd exclaimed in amazement.

"Yo! Such a temper, thinking that killing Lin Jianghuan makes him invincible in the same realm? Lin Jianghuan was only a preparatory member of the Canglan Army, not even a true member yet! People like you from small places, let alone being guards, even being a servant depends on whether we’re willing to accept!"

A mocking voice echoed, as Zuo Qiqi finished her battle, winning the chaotic fight, looking at Jiang Chen with scorn.

The underworld hall’s power was a step above Zuo Qiqi’s clan. She had received orders from her family this time to build good relations with other forces from the Canglan Domain in preparation for the upcoming major tournament.

Seeing Ming Yang step over Jiang Chen now, she didn’t mind stepping on him twice.

Whoosh!

A figure jumped onto Zuo Qiqi’s arena, Yan Hu responded indifferently: "I won’t take your place, but I will show you that you are unworthy of being the Young Master’s guard either!"

The change on Zuo Qiqi’s arena instantly drew everyone’s attention, Jiang Chen, Ming Yang, Huo Qiong, and Su Qingpeng all looked over.

"You..."

Zuo Qiqi looked at Yan Hu, anger flashing in her eyes, an overwhelming sense of humiliation surged in her heart, speaking in a deep voice: "You are courting death!"

Buzz!

A mystical ripple emanated from Zuo Qiqi, her delicate hand raised, sending hundreds of spiritual seals flying.

"A Hundred Seal Grandmaster!?"

"Who would’ve thought this girl from the Zuo Family reached the realm of a Hundred Seal Grandmaster at Divine Infant Realm Peak!"

"Yan Hu is in trouble!"

"A Hundred Seal Spiritual Array Master can rival initial stage Void Refinement Realm cultivators!"

A chorus of shouting erupted as the surrounding crowd looked at Zuo Qiqi in surprise.

Zuo Qiqi’s eyes revealed a trace of pride: "Kneel and apologize to this young lady, I’ll spare you!"

"Although strong, you form seals too slowly! An array master who arranges formations slowly is just a target!"

Yan Hu spoke calmly.

"You... then come and try!"

Zuo Qiqi raised her eyebrows in anger, shouting out, as a vast Great Dao Divine Light emerged from her, forming a transparent defensive light barrier around her.

Meanwhile, the spiritual seals in Zuo Qiqi’s hand quickly flew out.
