Call me trash? I can instantly kill an S-level talent with just one yuan!

"What...what is he doing???"

"Sit...sit?"

"This is a fighting ring, not your living room!"

"Are you kidding me!"

Ye Chen's actions instantly widened everyone's eyes.

Nobody knows what he's up to.

But he simply sat cross-legged quietly, circulating the energy within his body through his meridians, cultivating in stillness.

The room fell silent once again.

Even the fighters in the small arena next door couldn't help but stop and look over.

Soon, someone made a move.

"I'll take on this! I want to challenge the great president!"

A young man with a fanatical expression strode towards the ring.

Everyone looked over.

An older student sneered, "Seriously, what an act. Now that someone's here, are you still going to pretend? You'll have to get up and fight, won't you? Hmph... Huh???"

Before he could finish speaking, he froze on the spot.

The student, with a fanatical expression, had one foot on the ground and the other on the first step of the arena.

His previously enthusiastic expression had turned into shock, his face filled with disbelief.

"What's wrong?"

Why isn't he moving?

"What is he pushing?!"

Numerous discussions arose.

In front of the ring.

The person involved was even more shocked than the onlookers.

He pushed forward with all his might, but even though there was nothing in front of him, he couldn't move an inch!

"What is this thing?! It's like a wall blocking our way!"

After trying for more than ten minutes, he finally confirmed that he was unable to step onto the ring at all. He couldn't even get up the second step, let alone the ring.

This scene shocked thousands of people, who stared wide-eyed.

Referee's table.

Vice Principal Huang Heshan had a frivolous beard and a broad smile.

"This young man has such control over his energy; it seems he's not far from reaching the Martial King realm."

Li Wan and the others were too shocked to speak.

When exactly did this freshman reach a higher level than them?!

They hadn't noticed before, but now, upon probing again, they found that they could no longer discern Ye Chen's actual cultivation level.

Li Wan swallowed hard, her throat bobbing.

Is this... really the boy she remembers?

She clearly remembered the first time she met Ye Chen; at that time, he was only at the fifth level of Body Tempering.

How long has it been?

Three months?

Still four months?!

On the arena.

Ye Chen never opened his eyes, his breathing as steady as that of an ancient tortoise.

But it's also true that the challenger couldn't get into the ring.

At this moment, a second person who didn't believe in superstitions stepped forward.

He glanced at the challenger whose expression had become even more fanatical, and smiled dismissively.

"You mere Qi and Blood Level One dare to challenge the Guild Master? Get out of the way!"

After saying that, he walked to the edge of the ring and, under everyone's gaze, suddenly stepped onto the first step.

In an instant, his body suddenly froze.

A powerful resistance descended, freezing his body on the first step, making it impossible for him to move forward.

"I refuse to believe it! I, with Qi and Blood at level six, can't even get onto the arena!"

He gritted his teeth, channeling all his energy into his right foot, firmly rooting it to the step, while desperately lifting his other foot to descend with difficulty towards the second step.

Seeing this, everyone held their breath for him.

Some people even started cheering him on.

"superior!"

"superior!"

"superior!"

But things didn't go as planned. Just when his other foot was only a few centimeters away from the second step, his energy ran out, and the huge repulsive force instantly sent him flying.

With a loud crash, the impact knocked several students into the desks and chairs.

Everyone gaped open.

"This...how is this possible? He can't even reach the sixth level of the Qi and Blood Realm?!"

"What on earth happened?!"

"How the hell am I supposed to fight this?"

"Can anyone tell me... just what level of cultivation the guild leader has reached?!"

at the same time.

On the other side of the stands, at a distance from the older students.

Several men and women with composed demeanor sat together, their faces grim as they stared at Ye Chen in the center of the arena.

It was the leaders of the eight major guilds, and Zheng Yue was among them.

There was also someone who had helped Ye Chen before – Qingti.

"What do you guys think?" a boy asked first.

Zheng Yue casually reclined on the chair, saying, "How else can I see? With my eyes."

"Zheng Yue, I'm talking about serious matters!"

"Don't yell at me. I fought him once before. This time it's your turn."

The boy's expression was gloomy. He turned to look at the green grapes again and asked, "Senior, what do you think?"

"I'm not a sophomore, and the rules prevent me from taking action."

Qingti spoke calmly, while thinking to herself: Even if I could take action, I wouldn't. Fight a monster? I'm not sick!

Upon hearing this...

The boy sighed helplessly.

The others also shook their heads helplessly.

"It seems it's time to arrange a meeting with Ye Chen."

"Hmm, let's find an opportunity."

……

the other side.

People who didn't believe in superstitions started to appear one after another, and it began to gain popularity rapidly.

Since even those at the sixth level of the Qi and Blood Realm can't make it, it's even more reasonable that those at lower levels can't either. Surely they won't be ridiculed now.

"Hurry up! Hurry up! It's been three minutes already. If you can't get up there, don't force it. There are people waiting behind you!"

"Is the one in front ready yet? Hurry up!"

"That's right, that's right! This is a one-time chance to experience the president's tyranny, don't waste time!"

Within minutes, a long line of hundreds of people had formed below the arena.

This scene stunned all the senior students and the mentors on the judging panel.
