Chapter 338
“Stop bluffing!”
Ning Haotian felt disdain for Jiang Chen. He had made certain in the previous blow exchanges that Jiang Chen was at the end of his wits.
Fighting was a mental game. In each exchange of blows, one had to know one’s enemy better so that the most powerful attack would have a better chance of succeeding.
So he knew that even if Jiang Chen had a better sword movement, he wouldn’t be able to exert its power in his current situation.
In comparison, his Ten Most Powerful Doctrines was the strongest movement.
I’ve won in terms of how to fight a battle, Ning Haotian thought proudly. Although it was mainly because he had so many advantages, he still felt excited.
Jiang Chen took a deep breath and raised the Red Cloud Sword in his left hand. Wind and thunder gathered. The elevation of the sword pierced through the sun.
At the same time, Fan Tu arrived with eleven Wind Move Guards and growled angrily, “Who has the nerve to hurt my young lord?!”
Fan Tu’s state was the highest among them, but even he was only in the Mental Wander State. Besides, he couldn’t fly. It was amusing that he had the nerve to talk like this.
Fan Tu and the Wind Move Guards were dragged into the air by an unknown energy. Some holes opened in the hull of the ship. Parts of Dark Soldier Armor flew over and armed them.
A few seconds later, the Natural Law School was filled with exclamations. The twelve men from the Southwind Ridge were all giving off a dreadful energy with the aid of the Dark Soldier Armor, especially Fan Tu, who was wearing the general’s armor. His current strength wasn’t any weaker than a Reaching Heaven State’s.
“Natural Law School, are you sure you want to have this fight?”
“Your defensive tactical formation is nothing to me. Let me ask you again. Are we going to have this fight?!”
Facing the irritated higher-ups, Jiang Chen was fearless. He said with a cold face, “I might die, but I guarantee I’ll remove you from the top ten sects and schools of the Fire Field.”
“Too arrogant!”
The higher-ups didn’t believe Jiang Chen could do this all by himself. However, although they were angry, none of them dared act recklessly.
The Devastator was still accumulating power. It seemed like it needed more time than it had before. When this cannon shot, it wouldn’t only destroy peaks.
“He’s alive. Ning Haotian is still alive.”
While they were hesitating, people saw Ning Haotian was still breathing.
“Jiang Chen, your revenge is done. Your anger has been vented. Let Ning Haotian go,” said Jiang Wei, the vice leader.
“He’s still alive because I want him to be alive. I need him for other things. I won’t deliver him to you,” said Jiang Chen.
“Arrogant. How dare you!”
“Ning Haotian is still alive. We should rescue him at any cost!”
If Ning Haotian was dead, it would be meaningless for them to fight with Jiang Chen. It would only do harm to both parties.
But since he was still alive, they would risk anything to save him.
“Really? Are you sure you want to have a fight for a disabled man?” Jiang Chen scorned.
“Disabled?”
People were in a daze. Then they stared at Ning Haotian with eyes wide open.
“He has been practicing until today with the aid of my holy pulses. Also thanks to that, he has become a Reaching Heaven State. Now, I’ve reverted him back to a Gathering Yuan State, and that’ll be the most he can achieve for his whole life,” said Jiang Chen.
This was brutal, very brutal!
The disciples of the Natural Law School hadn’t recovered from the shock brought on by Ning Haotian’s defeat. The new information started a new storm in their hearts.
Ning Haotian had made such dedicated efforts to practice until that day. He had been about to show his skill and get ranked on the Master List, but suddenly, everything went back to the starting point.
It wasn’t any better for him than death. The higher-ups that had yelled how they’d come to his rescue quieted down.
“Jiang Chen, you’re a disciple of the Natural Law School, too. You’ve defeated Ning Haotian and proven yourself. The leader position is perfect for you. Why don’t you think it over?”
