Chapter 3
C3 – Strength Increased
“For this challenge, Ruan Xiude wins.”
The referee, Liang Ruili, announced the result.
He looked at Ruan Xiude in surprise.
Ruan Xiude’s strength was a bit weaker than that of Ruan Jing.
He did not expect that Ruan Xiude could actually win, and he even defeated his opponent with a single punch.
As soon as Liang Ruili finished speaking.
A commotion broke out on the stage.
Everyone looked at Ruan Xiude in surprise.
The scene became noisy.
“Ruan Xiude actually won?”
“He killed his opponent with a single punch?”
“It seems like Ruan Xiude has hidden a lot of his strength.”
Everyone was discussing and sighing.
Ruan Xiude was able to send Ruan Jing flying with a single punch, which showed his strength. Even though he was not as strong as Ruan Yingfa, Ruan Yueya, Ruan Huan, and Ruan Jing, he was much stronger than the other outstanding people.
He could be considered the fourth genius of the Ruan family.
Even the higher-ups of the Ruan family who were watching the monthly strength test on the high platform in the distance looked at Ruan Xiude with interest.
Ruan Xiude won the challenge, and Ruan Yueya was naturally overjoyed.
On the other side, Ruan Yingfa’s face was gloomy.
“Useless person!”
Ruan Yingfa cursed in his heart, feeling depressed.
This time, he had failed, but Ruan Xiude had also revealed his strength. It would be even more difficult for him to do something bad to Ruan Xiude next time.
On the arena.
Ruan Xiude looked at the attribute panel. After Liang Ruili announced the result, his energy point increased by a lot. His smile became even wider.
In such a short time, the energy point had already broken through the 3000 mark.
This was really not bad.
At this time, Liang Ruili’s voice sounded.
“Ruan Xiude, you can leave now. The rest of the disciples will be competing.”
Ruan Xiude smiled indifferently.
“Referee, can I challenge the rest of the disciples?”
Liang Ruili’s expression froze. He did not expect Ruan Xiude to ask this question.
Normally, after each challenge, there would be a different disciple competing.
After a fierce battle, the people who were competing would consume some energy.
If someone wanted to challenge someone, they would have to wait for a while to recover.
However, he did not expect that Ruan Xiude would not act according to the rules.
“Of course, but…”
Liang Ruili hesitated for a moment before replying.
However, before he could finish, he was interrupted by Ruan Xiude.
“That’s good. Next, I want to challenge someone!”
Ruan Xiude’s expression was indifferent, as if he was not acting on impulse.
Ruan Xiude’s action was within the rules, so Liang Ruili could not stop him.
“Who do you want to challenge?”
“Ruan Yingfa!”
Ruan Xiude said without hesitation.
In this month, he and Ruan Yueya had been tormented by Ruan Yingfa.
Now that he was strong enough, it was time for him to take revenge on Ruan Yingfa.
At the same time, he could also obtain some energy points.
Hearing this, Liang Ruili’s expression changed. He almost thought that he had heard wrongly.
Among the three great geniuses of the Ruan family, Ruan Huan had reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Body Refining Realm, while Ruan Yueya and Ruan Yingfa had reached the peak of the eighth layer of the Body Refining Realm.
They were the strongest three disciples of the Ruan family.
No one could shake their position.
Usually, other than the three of them challenging each other, no one dared to challenge them.
Ruan Xiude actually chose to challenge Ruan Yingfa at the beginning.
This made Liang Ruili feel a little unbelievable.
Liang Ruili looked at Ruan Xiude again. Seeing that Ruan Xiude had nodded, he was sure that he had not heard wrongly.
Liang Ruili took a deep breath and suppressed the shock in his heart.
Even if Ruan Xiude was overconfident, he was only an ordinary deacon. He did not have the right to stop Ruan Xiude.
He could only hope that Ruan Xiude could hold on for a while longer so that Ruan Xiude would not be severely injured.
After all, compared to Ruan Yingfa, Ruan Xiude treated them much better.
Immediately after, Liang Ruili announced in a clear voice.
“The next match, Ruan Xiude challenges Ruan Yingfa!”
“Ruan Yingfa, go to the arena!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the arena went silent.
Immediately after, the arena went into an uproar.
“Did I hear it wrong? Ruan Xiude actually wants to challenge one of the three great geniuses, Ruan Yingfa?”
“It’s been a long time since anyone dared to challenge the three great geniuses. Ruan Xiude is actually so arrogant?”
“Maybe he defeated Ruan Jing, which gave him some confidence. He wants to take revenge on Ruan Yingfa. Previously, the two of them had a big grudge.”
“Even so, Ruan Xiude is at the seventh layer of the Body Refining Realm. How could he be a match for Ruan Yingfa, who is at the peak of the eighth layer of the Body Refining Realm? I think he will fall into a bad situation.”
Everyone in the arena was discussing.
They looked at Ruan Xiude, who was standing on the stage. While they were shocked by Ruan Xiude’s courage, they were also gloating and ridiculing him.
It could be said that almost no one thought highly of Ruan Xiude.
Even Ruan Yueya, who had heard the news, had an anxious expression on her face. She wanted to look for her father for help.
However, when she saw the confident look in Ruan Xiude’s eyes, she stopped.
This time, she chose to believe in Ruan Xiude.
On the other side, Ruan Yingfa also laughed when he heard this.
He was worried that he couldn’t find a way to teach Ruan Xiude a lesson, but he didn’t expect that Ruan Xiude would take the initiative to come.
Although he didn’t know why Ruan Xiude had the guts to challenge him.
However, he would not let go of such an opportunity.
Immediately, Ruan Yingfa stood up and walked towards the stage.
This time, it involved one of the three geniuses, Ruan Yingfa.
The higher-ups of the Ruan family on the high platform were very concerned about this matter.
Soon, Ruan Yingfa arrived on the stage.
Ruan Yingfa and Ruan Xiude looked at each other.
Ruan Xiude’s gaze swept across Ruan Yingfa.
“Name: Ruan Yingfa.”
“Cultivation: Body Refining, eighth layer.”
“Cultivation talent: Medium grade cultivation talent, Speed talent, Substandard Strength talent, Substandard Speed talent.”
“Martial arts: Wind Palm (second rank low grade, Small Completion), Rolling Rock Fist (first rank top grade, Great Completion).”
“Acquired treasures: None.”
Looking at Ruan Yingfa’s attribute panel, Ruan Xiude revealed a smile.
As expected, Ruan Yingfa had a lot of treasures on him.
It just so happened that these treasures belonged to him.
Immediately, Ruan Xiude thought of something.
“Consuming 1000 energy points, duplication successful. Obtained .”
“Consuming 200 energy points, duplication successful, obtained [substandard Speed talent].”
In an instant, Ruan Xiude completed the duplication.
After that, Ruan Xiude chose to fuse them.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the substandard Speed talent.”
“Ding! Congratulations to the Host for advancing to the top grade cultivation talent.”
“Ding! Congratulation to the Host for advancing to the low grade cultivation talent.”
After the weak warm current flowed through his body, Ruan Xiude felt that the strength in his body had increased by several times.
His attribute panel also changed quite a bit.
It was no longer a problem for him to deal with Ruan Yingfa.
All of this happened in a breath’s time. No one noticed that Ruan Xiude’s strength had increased by a lot again.
The referee, Liang Ruili, glanced at the two of them and sighed. Then, he announced, “The challenge begins!”
“Ruan Xiude, you are really bold. You actually dare to challenge me? However, with your strength, it seems that you are not enough to take revenge on me.”
Ruan Yingfa, who was facing him, did not seem to be in a hurry to attack. Instead, he spoke out in ridicule.
“Why are you talking so much nonsense? Let me see how strong you are.”
Ruan Xiude was also very sharp.
