Chapter 286
“Jiang Chen…”
When the Hero Palace heard the news about the fatal fight between Jiang Chen and Shui Chun, they all shouted in surprise.
If they hadn’t known his fights were never actually started by him, they would have thought Jiang Chen was causing trouble intentionally to create a reputation for himself, just because he liked being in the limelight.
Jiang Chen had killed Zhao Yajun with only one sword attack, so of course he wasn’t weak, but compared to Shui Chun, there was still a huge gap.
Zhao Yajun was in Cloud Two of the Reaching Heaven State. Shui Chun was in Cloud Three.
The gap between clouds was huge. Besides that, Shui Chun had broken through to the Reaching Heaven State while he was holding down his strength to develop his extraordinary meridians.
On the other hand, Zhao Yajun had been in the peak of the late stage of the Mental Wander State. He had broken through as soon as he had formed 49 holy points. He hadn’t even developed his first extraordinary meridian.
“A woman in that box is looking at you,” Ying Wushuang suddenly said.
Jiang Chen looked toward where she was pointing and was surprised to see a familiar face.
He greeted the woman with a friendly smile, but she angrily turned her face to the other side.
Inside the box, Crimson Moon hadn’t expected to see Jiang Chen there with a pretty woman. She fell into a bad mood.
An elegant young master was smiling gently at her. He asked her in a caring tone when he had noticed the change of her mood, “Something wrong, Princess Crimson Moon?”
“Nothing. I saw a guy that came to the Sacred Institute with me.”
“So you’re from the same place. Why don’t you invite him up here?” the young master said.
“That won’t be necessary. I don’t know him well,” said Crimson Moon.
“It’s Jiang Chen, isn’t it?”
Yi Qing, sitting beside the young master, looked through the window, and she saw Jiang Chen, as expected.
Besides Crimson Moon, the elegant young master, and Yi Qing, some youngsters and staff of the chamber of commerce were also in the box.
“Jiang Chen? The Jiang Chen from the Fire Field? I heard he would have a fight to the death with Shui Chun in three days. Why would he be in the mood to watch an auction?” the young master said in surprise.
“A life-or-death fight?”
“Shui Chun?”
Crimson Moon and Yi Qing were both surprised. They hadn’t heard about anything that had happened in the Hero Palace yet.
“Yeah, it happened today. You’ll see the news in tomorrow’s daily. I heard…” the young master told them what had happened in the Hero Palace in the previous days.
“This guy is really a troublemaker, no matter where he is,” said Crimson Moon.
But at the same time, she thought to herself, “But he managed to stay safe and overcome his obstacles every time. He’s grown up a lot in his desperate fights. I’m lagging behind him. Is it right or wrong for him to behave like this?”
“I find this guy interesting. I would like to know him. Princess, could you introduce me to him? Shall we invite him up here?” said the young master again.
“All right.”
