Saint Sovereign of Nine Heavens

Injuries were a common occurrence for Chen Yu, but this time, his injuries were still serious.    

    

Cui Rong's strength was not much weaker than Bai Shangfei's. In addition, with the participation of the other two Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage s, Chen Yu could be said to be fighting three opponents at the same time. The price he had to pay for killing Cui Rong was not that much easier than killing Hsu Ye.    

    

Fortunately, since Cui Rong had died, the remaining people no longer posed much of a threat to Chen Yu.    

    

He looked around at the Jinguang City warriors, then slowly walked towards Cui Rong's body that was cut into two halves.    

    

Cui Rong was indeed strong and much more cautious than Hsu Ye. Unfortunately, he was not as strong as Hsu Ye, who did not have a powerful Spirit Weapon like Hsu Ye.    

    

With a grab, a gale was released and the two Storage Bag that were hanging on Cui Rong's body flew back.    

    

At this moment, the expressions of the Jinguang City Warriors who were in a state of panic and hesitation changed.    

    

"Kill!" Some of the Jinguang City warriors looked at each other, a few of them clenching their teeth, showing fear and extreme unwillingness, wielding their blades and pouncing towards Chen Yu.    

    

Some of them even attacked the Disguised Spirit Artifact.    

    

Chen Yu was surprised that these Jinguang City Warriors would still attack after Cui Rong's death, but after thinking for a bit, Chen Yu understood that there was something more important between the two Storage Bag s. This thing was most likely a Spiritual Qi Wood Plate that could help the participating City Battle Trial s pass the selection.    

    

The Willow Leaf Knife shook and a green light flew out. The timing was perfect as it killed the three warriors in one shot.    

    

At the same time, Chen Yu took a step forward. With a sweep of his Wind Stabilization Blade, he blocked the long sword of a warrior that was about to fall, and then killed him with a slash of his blade.    

    

The four people that pounced out were all killed by Chen Yu in an instant.    

    

The remaining Jinguang City practitioners became even more terrified and desperate.    

    

When Chen Yu killed the three experts of the seventh level of Heavenly Astral Stage, including Cui Rong, they already felt despair. However, they still had a sliver of hope and felt that Chen Yu might be severely injured and might be at the end of his tether. However, Chen Yu had instantly killed four people with his heavily injured body, causing the last bit of luck in the bottom of their hearts to completely vanish.    

    

Even with such heavy injuries, he was still able to kill with a raise of his hand. Was he even human?    

    

Chen Yu put the two Storage Bag s casually on his waist and sneered: "Do you still want to fight?"    

    

Everywhere Chen Yu looked, the practitioners of Jinguang City would unconsciously retreat, not daring to confront Chen Yu who was like a god of death.    

    

Sun Tie's gaze swept past Sun Yue and the group. There were dead bodies lying on the ground around Sun Yue and the group. Even Sun Zhong and Sun Cheng, who were the weakest among them, were unharmed. There was already one less out of the four Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage s on the other side, leaving only three people who were still fighting Sun Yue, Fong Chao and the rest. They were already at a disadvantage.    

    

Chen Yu took a step forward and raised his Willow Leaf Knife.    

    

The dozen or so warriors surrounding Chen Yu all retreated at the same time. Finally, someone couldn't hold back any longer and turned around to run.    

    

One person fled like a snowball, and the others completely collapsed as they scattered in all directions down the hill.    

    

The corner of Chen Yu's mouth raised, he bent down and picked up the Arc Moon Sword s and flame Spirit Weapon s that he threw out earlier and kept them, then carried the Wind Stabilization Blade and walked towards Sun Yue.    

    

Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage, who was fighting with Sun Yue, Fong Chao, and the others, saw that there was no hope and also saw Chen Yu walking over, so they all turned around and ran away.    

    

Shua, a spear light and a blade light rushed through the void. It was Sun Yue and Fong Chao who had seized the opportunity to unleash their killing moves.    

    

One of the Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage s had been pierced through like a lightning spear and hung on the spear. The other Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage had blood spurting out of his body as he staggered down the hill to escape.    

    

In the blink of an eye, all of the Jinguang City practitioners had fled.    

    

"Chen Yu, are you alright?" Sun Yue and the rest let out a sigh of relief and went to Chen Yu's side.    

    

Chen Yu swallowed a Medicine Pill. His face was pale but his expression was indifferent as he said, "Nothing serious. Clean up the battlefield and see what we've got!"    

    

Sun Zhong and the other Sun family members revealed a happy expression and began to clean up the battlefield. They were more or less injured, but not seriously.    

    

Sun Yue and Fong Chao didn't move. They stared at Chen Yu with complicated expressions.    

    

"I'm ashamed!" Sun Yue said, "Chen Yu, I originally wanted to give you a hand in training, but I didn't expect that I would end up relying on your hand to settle the battle. I didn't manage to help you at all!"    

    

"Mr Sun is too modest!" Chen Yu laughed, "If it weren't for you holding those four warriors of the seventh level of Heavenly Astral Stage back, I might already be dead!"    

    

Sun Yue shook his head and said, "I don't dare to claim credit for it. Poor Cui Rong is considered one of the best among the thousands of warriors that have participated in the City Battle Trial, but he died in your hands. "    

    

"It wouldn't be a disgrace for him to die by my hands!" Chen Yu laughed.    

    

"True, there are too many people who died in your hands!" Sun Yue said, "Cui Rong might not even be qualified!"    

    

Fong Chao narrowed his eyes, revealing a glimmer in his eyes, and said, "I, Feng, have never admired anyone in my life, and you, Chen Yu, can be considered one of them. "However, I have a question in my heart. Earlier, you were injured by Hsu Ye, but it did not seem like you were injured at all. What is going on?"    

    

Chen Yu looked at Fong Chao who had a meaningful look on his face and did not answer. Instead, he took out the Storage Bag from Cui Rong and fell to the ground.    

    

A pile of items fell to the ground. Amongst them, eleven wooden tablets were extremely eye-catching.    

    

Apart from the wooden signboard, there were one or two palm-sized wooden swords that were unique in that they weren't worth paying attention to.    

    

Chen Yu picked up a wooden board and tried to sense it.    

    

There were around twenty wisps of special spiritual energy in the wooden tablet. In other words, this wooden tablet was formed by continuously crushing and absorbing spiritual energy from the twenty initial wooden tablets.    

    

After confirming this point, Chen Yu grabbed the second wooden plate and found that the amount of spirit energy in the second wooden plate was the same as the first wooden plate; it was not much less than the first wooden plate.    

    

Sun Yue, Fong Chao, and Luo Yuan watched from the side. Their eyes seemed to be burning with passion, but they did not move.    

    

Soon, all eleven wooden plates were checked. Chen Yu found that only one wooden board contained less spirit energy. The other wooden boards all contained the same amount of spirit energy.    

    

These eleven wooden tokens meant that Cui Rong had taken the tokens from more than two hundred warriors. Furthermore, Cui Rong and Chen Yu's calculation of the result of this selection was the same, they also determined that after the twenty initial wooden tablets were combined, one could ensure that a practitioner would become a Outer Sect disciple.    

    

In other words, these eleven wooden tablets represented the names of the eleven Outer Sect disciples!    

    

Without any hesitation, Chen Yu threw the wooden signboard towards everyone present, one for each person.    

    

Sun Yue and Fong Chao's eyes lit up as they nodded towards Chen Yu.    

    

Luo Yuan and Sun Deng's eyes flashed. Their expressions were a little complicated, with an indescribable feeling.    

    

The excitement on the other people's faces became difficult to control. Even their breathing became hurried. Even Sun Zhong, who was sweeping the battlefield, also excitedly shouted a few words. His joy was clearly expressed in his words.    

    

With Sun Zhong and Sun Cheng's strengths, wanting to obtain twenty initial wooden tablets and become a Ruling Spirit Sect disciple in one fell swoop was simply too difficult. They guaranteed that it wouldn't be easy even if they lived until the selection was over, but they didn't expect that they would easily obtain an origin energy wooden tablet which would allow them to pass through the City Battle Trial in this battle.    

    

Of course, the premise was that they had to survive until the end of the selection, and at the same time, keep the wooden signboard in their hands, so that it wouldn't be taken away from them.    

    

In fact, even if Luo Yuan and Sun Deng wanted to gather twenty initial wooden tokens, it would not be an easy thing to do. In the later stages of the selection, Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage who were alone in the Trial Secret Realm would also suffer a loss.    

    

"Thank you, Young Master Chen!"    

    

"Thank you, Young Master Chen!" Sun Zhong and the others recovered from their excitement and thanked Chen Yu one after the other. However, they were sincere and did not put on any airs.    

    

Chen Yu nodded his head as a response. He grabbed the two wooden swords and played with them. Soon, he revealed a look of understanding.    

    

This wooden sword was exactly the same as Cui Rong's wooden sword from before. It was complicated and carried a faint light. It was a powerful one-time use Disguised Spirit Artifact.    

    

Wood was a type of Yin Wood, it was a type of relatively rare wood, able to bear the divine intent of a Profound Dark Stage Ranker!    

    

This kind of wooden sword was actually very powerful. If Chen Yu didn't have a strong physique and the Star Soul s that could easily erase the powerful will contained within this kind of Disguised Spirit Artifact, he would have definitely suffered a great loss.    

    

Putting away the wooden sword, Chen Yu couldn't be bothered with other things and said, "Everyone, farewell. I hope everyone is lucky!"    

    

"Hmm?" Sun Yue was stunned and said, "You are leaving now?"    

    

Chen Yu nodded his head and said: "I have already been exposed. I estimate that it won't be long before Chen Daolin, Feng Xuan and the other disciples of the sub-school come and kill me. The earlier we leave this place, the better! "    

    

"Young Master Chen, we haven't distributed the spoils of war yet!" Sun Zhong said.    

    

"No need, you can split these things, I'm not interested!" Chen Yu cupped his hands and said, "Everyone, please take care. I hope we can meet again at the end of the selection!"    

    

Sun Zhong fell silent when he heard that.    

    

"In that case, take care!" Sun Yue said with a smile, "I now completely believe that no one among the City Battle Trial can take your life!"    

    

"Mr Sun is too kind!" Chen Yu smiled.    

    

"I wanted to drink with you, but it won't be too late next time!" Fong Chao said with a complicated expression, he suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Chen Yu, it's not easy for you to be chased by the disciples of a branch sect by yourself. If you think that I won't burden you any further, I'm willing to travel with you! "    

    

Chen Yu was slightly startled, but he immediately shook his head and said, "Thank you, Brother Feng, for your kindness. However, I do not want to implicate you in the pursuit of the disciples of the sub-school, so there is no need!"    

    

Everyone's reason for participating in the City Battle Trial s was to pass the selection and become a Ruling Spirit Sect disciple. Now, Fong Chao had already gotten the wooden plates needed to pass the City Battle Trial, so Chen Yu didn't think that Fong Chao needed to take any more risks.    

    

Moreover, although Fong Chao was stronger than the average Martial Cultivator of the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Astral Stage, in Chen Yu's eyes, he was still inferior by a little. If they met Chen Daolin and Feng Xuan's generation, they would still die, and Chen Yu did not want to implicate Fong Chao to die because of him.    

    

"See you later!" After clasping his hands together once again, Chen Yu turned around and walked down the mountain.    

    

Everyone on the mountain watched Chen Yu leave in silence.    

    

"I really don't understand how he managed to do it. His severe injuries were all healed in such a short period of time!"    

    

"Everyone has their own secrets. Why ask?" Sun Yue laughed.    

    

"Alright, let's split the items then!" Luo Yuan said, "After we divide up the items, everyone can escape as far as they can. We can find a place to hide until the selection is over!"
