Ye Chen's words were simple and brutal, directly declaring that one of the princes or princesses should leave the Dao Platform, so that the last person could ascend.
The several princes and princesses were all enraged. What did Ye Chen think he was doing? Although he was hailed as the Unrivaled King, such overbearing behavior was truly infuriating.
"Ye Chen, you've gone too far. If you want the Dao Platform, two sides are enough. But one shouldn't be so greedy," the princess of the Jiuhua Empire couldn't help but coldly rebuke, scolding Ye Chen for his excessive actions.
"That's right. Although you are strong, you are not necessarily the strongest one here. This is not your territory alone. Our imperial brothers are also here. It's not your place to forcibly occupy it alone."
The other princes and princesses were the same, their gazes icy cold. The Martial God Dao Weapons above their heads were all in the process of awakening, using them to guard against Ye Chen. Moreover, the six super experts with the qualification to delay claiming kingship now seemed to possess the true strength of kings, having reached the Martial God realm. They could battle Martial God-level demonic beasts and no longer believed Ye Chen could dominate the entire Trial Path.
Therefore, these princes and princesses had no fear of Ye Chen.
"Brother Ye Chen, this isn't appropriate," Vivian said with some worry. Because the strength Yang Shaoqi and the others were displaying now was far greater than before, it truly made her and Princess Hong Rong somewhat anxious. They didn't want Ye Chen to confront several super experts who had delayed claiming kingship for their sake.
"Don't worry, it's fine," Ye Chen smiled slightly, giving her a dose of confidence. Then he swept his gaze over the six, saying indifferently, "Since you are unwilling, I have no choice but to take action."
"Ye Chen, how dare you!"
The six princes and princesses immediately wielded their Martial God Dao Weapons to attack. All of them erupted with vast, dazzling radiance, their fluctuations intense. They struck at Ye Chen without regard for anything.
All the trial-takers watched this scene nervously, waiting to see how Ye Chen would defend.
"The Dao Weapons aren't bad. It's a pity those wielding them are far inferior."
Ye Chen said flatly, his expression indifferent and unmoved. He simply extended a large hand. Instantly, a Dharma Form manifested, expanding in an instant to cover this ancient hall, blotting out the sky and sun, terrifyingly abnormal.
The six Martial God Dao Weapons had already been activated, all flowing with dazzling light, blazing like small suns, glaringly bright. But this giant hand possessed a terrifying power that manifested, swirling with shining golden radiance. It grabbed hold and then gave a fierce shake. The light radiating from the awakening Dao Weapons was directly extinguished.
Simple and brutal.
Pfft, pfft, pfft—
On the Dao Platform, the six princes and princesses of the Jiuhua Empire and Tenglong Empire coughed up blood and were sent flying backward, their faces pale, yet also filled with shock.
On the scene, successive sounds of sharp intakes of cold air rang out as everyone stared dumbfounded at this.
Too overwhelmingly strong! Although the six Martial God Dao Weapons hadn't fully awakened, they already possessed a portion of their might. Combined, they were enough to collapse mountains. But Ye Chen was even more extraordinary. With a flip of his hand, he grasped them, directly extinguishing the vast power ignited by their awakening, appearing utterly calm and composed.
Such methods could truly be called peerless in the world.
Was this the true strength of the Unrivaled King, Ye Chen?
No, everyone believed that Ye Chen must still have even more extraordinary means he hadn't fully utilized yet, only he hadn't displayed them. They all looked forward to seeing it.
This scene was also witnessed by the six super experts. They were surprised, clearly not expecting Ye Chen to be this strong, exceeding their expectations. It seemed he also possessed Martial God realm combat power.
But it was only a trace. Even they before their breakthrough could have done the same. Therefore, they didn't take Ye Chen seriously.
"Ye Chen, you've gone too far. You must know this place is not where you alone reign supreme. We all have the strength to kill you. It's only out of respect for Xia Yang that we haven't acted. Do you truly think you are invincible? Ridiculous. Today, I shall take action to let you understand there is always a higher sky and a stronger person." A super expert who had delayed claiming kingship abandoned the demonic beast he was fighting. It was Li Sheng of the Jiuhua Empire, a quite outstandingly handsome young man. His Vermilion Jade Divine Bell rippled with a trace of cold, dark red light as he attacked Ye Chen.
This was a true Martial God-level strike, and moreover, one executed by a young genius wielding a super Martial God Dao Weapon. It was quite terrifying. The void trembled; it could annihilate a mountain.
But at this moment, Xia Yang instantly turned and struck out. His divine spear blocked the void, erupting with a mass of terrifying light that directly shattered this red light. He coldly swept his gaze over Li Sheng, saying, "Ye Chen is the great rival I have chosen. No one may act against him, otherwise it is the same as making an enemy of me."
"Xia Yang, you deliberately protect this Ye Chen. But can you protect him alone?" Long Tenghua of the Tenglong Empire also acted. A strand of dragon qi truly manifested, transforming into a True Dragon that roared and swept its divine dragon tail towards Ye Chen.
"That's right. Today, this arrogant fool Ye Chen will surely be punished. We shall pass judgment and sentence him to death here."
At the same time, Yang Shaoqi also acted. From between his fingers and palm flew a sheet of light that quickly condensed into a hanging river of heavenly snow, heavy as ten thousand jun, chopping down.
Li Sheng struck out with red light once more.
Ye Chen's actions had truly angered the super experts of their three empires. They had to act to punish, even execute him, to serve as a warning to others. Otherwise, the world would think the three empires were easy to bully.
Xia Yang's expression turned slightly cold. He brandished his divine spear, battle qi surging, about to act to block them. But at this moment, a figure appeared before him, like a great mountain blocking his path, obstructing all the momentum he was releasing. Xia Yang couldn't help but darken his expression, coldly shouting, "Wu Han, what is the meaning of this?"
Wu Han was precisely the young generation genius of the mysterious ancient force, the Martial God Hall. Facing Xia Yang's question, he merely smiled slightly: "I am only responsible for blocking you. Such a good show, how could I bear to miss it?"
Xia Yang was furious, yet had no recourse. Because in terms of strength, this Wu Han before him was on par with him. If the other wanted to delay him, he was fully capable of doing so.
And the last mysterious super expert wore a mask on her face, dreamlike and illusory, her features unclear. But her figure was exquisite and translucent, clearly a woman, and her figure was outstandingly graceful. Her hair fluttered lightly, her skin snow-white and crystalline. She was undoubtedly an outstanding beauty, only her origins were mysterious. To this day, no one knew where this woman came from.
However, on the Trial Path, she had a resounding title—Fairy Caiyun.
At this moment, Fairy Caiyun was also watching Ye Chen, her gaze distant.
Three strikes from young Martial Gods. Even if they were ordinary strikes, they were terrifying. Together, they killed towards Ye Chen.
At this moment, even the trial-takers felt some trepidation. Although Ye Chen's strength was known, the others had clearly stepped into the Martial God realm. This was certainly no joke.
How would Ye Chen deal with all this?
Swish—
Contrary to everyone's expectations, Ye Chen had no intention of blocking at all. The first thing he did was sidestep, evading.
The three terrifying Martial God realm attacks landed on the ancient hall, causing all those taking refuge within to change color. But at this moment, the nine Dao Platforms shone with hazy light, protecting the ancient hall, preventing it from being damaged. This also revealed the special nature of the dilapidated ancient hall.
"Ye Chen, are you a turtle hiding in its shell? I thought you were so powerful. Turns out you only know how to run away, not daring to fight head-on." Yang Shaoqi sneered, mocking Ye Chen for being a cowardly bandit, insulting him.
Ye Chen's face was expressionless. He only responded indifferently: "Ganging up on one and still trying such a provocation tactic. Are you an idiot?"
The seemingly questioning tone clearly confirmed it.
"You—!" Yang Shaoqi was enraged. Since when had anyone dared to insult him like this? Were they truly seeking death? But at this moment, the six terrifying Martial God-level great demons attacked again, roaring and shrieking, assaulting the six young Martial Gods.
Even the powerful six young Martial Gods had to concentrate and face them seriously, not daring to be careless. They immediately turned to confront these Martial God-level great demons once more, using their extraordinary Martial God Dao Weapons to resist.
Only this time, Yang Shaoqi suddenly sidestepped, avoiding the Silver-Horned Great Tiger, letting it charge past—coincidentally right towards Ye Chen. Moreover, he awakened and struck out with his divine hammer, transforming it into a dazzling ball of light that followed the Silver-Horned Great Tiger as it attacked Ye Chen.
Borrowing a knife to kill, a chain of double strikes.
"Brother Ye Chen, be careful!" Vivian exclaimed in alarm. The others were also stunned, not expecting Yang Shaoqi, a prince of the Tianqi Empire no less, to be so treacherous.
The Silver-Horned White Tiger roared. The silver horn on its head suddenly shot out a soaring silver light pillar, rumbling as it pressed down on Ye Chen. It was a terrifying strike from a Martial God-level great demon. Even young Martial Gods like Yang Shaoqi would have to retreat somewhat.
"You have angered me!"
Ye Chen said coldly, his voice shaking heaven and earth. His eyes erupted with piercing light. An earth-shattering, world-shaking, supremely terrifying aura surged from his entire body, sweeping across the firmament, causing heaven and earth to tremble.
In a daze, it was as if a Nine Heavens War God had descended to the mortal world, or as if an ancient ferocious beast that had lain dormant for countless ages had completely awakened. The terrifying aura could destroy heaven and earth.
At this moment, the world trembled!
