Chapter 5
C5 – The Entire Audience Was Shocked
This kind of change completely exceeded everyone’s expectations. Even Liang Ruili was shocked.
He had not been able to react to it all this time.
Only when he felt Ruan Xiude’s gaze did Liang Ruili come back to his senses.
Then, he announced in a clear voice,
“In this challenge, Ruan Xiude wins!”
As soon as his words fell, the entire arena was once again in an uproar.
Everyone’s gaze was focused on Ruan Xiude. At the same time, they were also filled with complicated expressions.
Ruan Huan, Ruan Yingfa, and Ruan Yueya were the three great geniuses of the Ruan family. Their statuses had always been stable, and no one could threaten them.
But today, Ruan Xiude had done it.
With a single punch, Ruan Yingfa was defeated.
From this moment onwards, Ruan Xiude would replace him.
Ruan Xiude would officially be one of the three great geniuses.
How could they not be moved?
Especially Ruan Xiude, who was at the seventh layer of the Body Refining Realm.
He had broken the record of the Ruan family for decades.
It made them extremely shocked.
On the arena.
Ruan Xiude looked at the Void in front of him. The energy points on the attribute panel were increasing rapidly, and he was also smiling.
At this moment, Liang Ruili’s voice sounded.
“Ruan Xiude, do you still want to continue the challenge?”
Seeing that Ruan Xiude had no intention of going down, Liang Ruili asked.
However, he did not think that Ruan Xiude would continue challenging others.
However, what Ruan Xiude said next exceeded his expectations.
“I still want to challenge others.”
Ruan Xiude chuckled.
Liang Ruili’s expression froze for a moment, unable to react in time.
Below the arena, the disciples were also stunned when they heard this. They looked at Ruan Xiude in disbelief.
Did they hear wrong?
Ruan Xiude actually wanted to continue challenging others?
Ruan Xiude defeated Ruan Yingfa with one punch and became one of the three great geniuses.
He still wanted to challenge others?
Thinking of this, the disciples were all shocked. Their gazes were locked onto Ruan Xiude, wanting to see what Ruan Xiude would say next.
On the arena, Ruan Xiude said with a faint smile:
“This time, my opponent is Ruan Huan.”
Ruan Xiude’s words were very calm.
But his words shocked everyone in the square.
In an instant, the atmosphere became even more heated.
“Ruan Xiude actually wants to challenge Ruan Huan?”
“Ruan Xiude is crazy, right?”
“I think he is too confident. He actually wants to challenge Ruan Huan!”
“Ruan Huan is the number one genius of the Ruan family. His cultivation has reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Body Refining Realm. His strength is far from what Ruan Yingfa can compare with. If Ruan Xiude wants to challenge Ruan Huan, he will definitely fail.”
The disciples were discussing this matter. They looked at Ruan Xiude with a hint of disbelief.
More people were mocking him.
Some people even cursed him in a low voice.
It was as if Ruan Xiude had done something bad.
They completely ignored the fact that Ruan Xiude was one of the three great geniuses.
Among the crowd, when Ruan Yueya heard this, her original joy disappeared without a trace.
Instead, she became worried.
She knew that Ruan Huan’s strength was comparable to some of the weaker early period Enlightenment Stage warriors.
His strength was far beyond that of other Body Refining warriors.
Ruan Xiude actually wanted to challenge Ruan Huan?
She could not help but worry.
However, once the challenge began, no one could stop them.
This was the rule.
She could only pray that Ruan Xiude would be fine.
On the other side of the crowd, after hearing this, Ruan Yingfa’s body froze for a moment before he turned ecstatic.
“Ruan Xiude, you are courting death. I will wait to see your miserable ending!”
Ruan Yingfa muttered to himself, unable to suppress his joy.
After he was defeated by Ruan Xiude, he was no longer one of the three great geniuses. He wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge on him.
However, he did not expect that Ruan Xiude would actually take the initiative to seek death.
He wanted to challenge Ruan Huan?
Wasn’t this courting death?
The last person who did this had to lie on the bed for a few months.
When he thought about how Ruan Xiude would be severely injured…
Ruan Yingfa couldn’t help but laugh.
On the high platform, all the higher-ups of the Ruan family were alarmed.
When the Patriarch, Ruan Rui, saw this, he frowned.
He originally thought that a genius had appeared.
He did not expect that Ruan Xiude would be so arrogant.
After that, Ruan Rui shook his head.
Ruan Cong, who was beside him, revealed a smile.
Although he was intimidated and could not attack Ruan Xiude to avenge his grandson, Ruan Yingfa was happy to see Ruan Xiude being taught a lesson by Ruan Yun.
However, seeing Ruan Xiude being taught a lesson by Ruan Huan, it was not bad.
On the arena.
When Liang Ruili heard this, he was stunned on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.
He almost couldn’t believe his ears.
After a long time, he finally confirmed this.
He looked at Ruan Xiude with a complicated expression.
Ruan Xiude wanted to challenge the number one genius of the Ruan family, Ruan Huan. He didn’t know what to say.
He could only announce loudly and wait for the development of the future.
“The next match, Ruan Xiude challenges Ruan Huan!”
“Ruan Huan, come up to the arena!”
As soon as he finished speaking.
The crowd fell into silence. Almost everyone’s gaze was focused on the tall figure below the eastern platform, Ruan Huan.
In the past, Ruan Huan had been very perfunctory when it came to the monthly strength check.
But today, he was going to be challenged.
Even if he only used one move to defeat his opponent, it would be enough to make everyone interested.
It had been a long time since they had seen the number one genius of the Ruan family fight with others.
Under everyone’s gaze, Ruan Huan slowly stood up and walked towards the arena.
Ruan Huan looked at the figure on the arena. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
In order to avoid annoying challenges, he had never shown mercy to others.
Since half a year ago, he had severely injured a so-called genius who challenged him, no one had challenged him anymore.
He didn’t expect that someone would challenge him again today.
Ruan Xiude was still a Body Refining Seventh Layer!
It seemed that he had to be even more merciless this time.
Otherwise, Ruan Xiude, who thought he had some strength, would not know his limits.
Not long after, Ruan Xiude also arrived on the stage and stood opposite of Ruan Huan.
Liang Ruili glanced at the two of them and announced,
“Challenge begins!”
At this moment, everyone on the stage focused their attention on the battle.
They were not looking at Ruan Xiude, but at Ruan Huan.
Ruan Xiude did not care about this. Instead, he was very happy.
Because this time, the number of energy points in his hands had increased by a large amount.
Even if he lost this battle, he would not lose much.
After that, Ruan Xiude looked at Ruan Huan.
“Name: Ruan Huan.”
“Cultivation: Body Refining ninth layer.”
“Talent: Top grade cultivation talent, low grade strength talent, low grade speed talent.”
“Martial arts: Collapsing Slash (second rank medium grade, Small Completion), Jade Shattering Fist (second rank low grade, Great Completion) …”
“Acquired treasures: None.”
Ruan Xiude looked at Ruan Huan’s attribute panel and his expression changed slightly.
Ruan Huan was indeed the number one genius of the Ruan family. This attribute panel was much stronger than Ruan Yingfa’s, and he had a lot more treasures.
Ruan Xiude naturally wouldn’t let this go.
Moreover, he now had enough energy points.
