"Yeah, this guy has been missing for several months. If he is still here, he must be stronger than all of us."
"I wonder if Wu Chen will come to participate in this sect disciple competition. I remember that this guy seemed to have an agreement with the old master."
"Agreement? Haha, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. That guy said that he wanted to be among the top ten in this sect disciple competition."
"Alas, I am young and frivolous. I don't know how many masters there are in Beichen Academy and how many powerful people are hidden."
"We can't blame him entirely for this. Think about it, weren't we just like him back then? We looked down on everything and looked down on everything."
"Yeah, it's all tears when I talk about it. Now I just want to practice in silence and not think about anything else."
"Me too, I'm working hard to cultivate myself, be down-to-earth, and stop thinking about those unrealistic things."
At this point, both of them sighed involuntarily, thinking back to when they first entered Beichen Academy, they were so arrogant and looked down on everyone in the world. In their opinion, as long as they entered Beichen Academy, they would be valued by Beichen Academy, and would be able to improve their cultivation quickly and become true disciples and unrivaled masters.
However, when they actually came in, they found that there were masters like clouds and strong men like forests here. Anyone who came out was more powerful than them, with more profound cultivation. The pride in their hearts was completely shattered. Only then did they understand how stupid their original idea was.
“We finally got there.”
There was a flash of light and a figure descended, right in front of Yang Kun and Zhao Peng. When they looked up, their bodies shook violently and they were stunned.
"This is Wu Chen, am I seeing things right?"
"It's him. It's really him."
The two were surprised and happy. They were just talking about him, but they didn't want to talk about Cao Cao, and then Cao Cao arrived.
“A lot of people.”
Wu Chen looked up and came out of his retreat. He heard others say that the sect disciple competition was about to begin. Without saying a word, he immediately rushed over. He didn't even have time to go back to his residence to check. He went straight to the square, because there was a draw before the competition. If he missed the draw, it would be equivalent to missing this sect disciple competition.
But fortunately, he finally caught up.
Just as he was about to draw the lot, a voice suddenly came over: "Wu Chen."
Wu Chen was stunned and turned around to see that it was Yang Kun and Zhao Peng.
"Hello, Yang Kun, Zhao Peng."
The two men came over, looked him up and down, and said with a smile, "So it really is you. We thought we had the wrong person."
Seeing that Wu Chen was safe and sound, they were relieved. After all, they were friends and didn't want to see anything happen to Wu Chen.
"You are here to draw lots, right?"
Wu Chen nodded: "Yeah, what about you guys?"
"We've already drawn the lot. The draw is over there. Let's take you there."
"good."
Having someone to show you the way can always save you some unnecessary trouble.
"Wait a minute, Wu Chen." Wu Chen was about to leave when Zhao Peng suddenly stopped him.
"What's wrong?" Wu Chen asked curiously.
"Wu Chen, you, you broke through the seventh level of the True Martial Realm?"
Zhao Peng looked at Wu Chen in shock. He hadn't noticed it just now, but now he realized that Wu Chen's cultivation had broken through the seventh level of the Zhenwu Realm without him noticing.
"yes."
Wu Chen nodded. He did not deliberately hide his cultivation level. There was no need to do so.
"hiss."
Both of them took a deep breath, still remembering that half a year ago, when they had just entered Beichen Academy, Wu Chen's cultivation was only at the third level of the Zhenwu Realm. But only half a year had passed, and he had already broken through to the seventh level of the Zhenwu Realm, and was promoted to the fourth level in half a year. This terrifying speed of cultivation was appalling, and they had never seen it before.
For a cultivator in the Qi Condensation Realm or the Spirit Wheel Realm, it might not be too difficult to advance four levels in half a year. However, they are Zhenwu Realm warriors, not cultivators in the Qi Condensation Realm or the Spirit Wheel Realm. It is very rare for them to be able to advance one or two levels in half a year. If they can advance three levels, they would be a monster among monsters. As for the fourth level, they have never seen it before. Perhaps only the spirits with special talents in the legends have such talent.
Wu Chen smiled faintly and said nothing. This time, the reason why he was able to advance so quickly was because he absorbed and refined the dragon soul of the Canglong. If not for this, he would never have been able to advance so much.
The three of them walked along the road towards the center of the square. When they saw them coming, everyone stopped and looked at them.
"Who is this guy and why are everyone looking at him?"
"This person is him."
"Which one do you know?"
"If I'm not mistaken, he should be Wu Chen."
"Wu Chen, a very familiar name. I think I've heard of it before."
"Of course you've heard of him. Almost everyone knows him."
"So famous?"
"Hey, have you forgotten that half a year ago, there was someone who boasted that he would be among the top ten in this sect disciple competition?"
"So it was him. Now I remember, he has been missing for a few months."
"Yes, he did disappear for a few months, and some people even thought he was dead."
"Do you mean, this person is that person?"
"Yes, he is that Wu Chen."
"He is only at the seventh level of the True Martial Realm? People like him can be found everywhere in our Beichen Academy."
"Haha, seeing him now and thinking about what he said half a year ago, I suddenly find it very funny."
"This slap in the face is really painful. If it were me, I would definitely hide away and would not participate in this sect disciple competition."
"There is always a price to pay for being arrogant. I hope that after this incident, he can learn some lessons and not think that our Beichen Academy is also their secular country."
Everyone was talking at once, discussing the matter.
Wu Chen smiled in his heart and wanted to slap him in the face, but it was not easy. He was afraid that he would disappoint these people this time.
“These people are speechless.”
Zhao Peng and Yang Kun were speechless. These people only saw the nonsense that Wu Chen had promised. Couldn't they see the progress he had made in the past six months? He was promoted four levels in half a year. Just ask yourself, how many people can do that
It is conceivable that if Wu Chen is given another year, by the time of next year's sect disciple competition, with Wu Chen's speed of practice, he may have a chance to compete for the top ten. Compared with these people, the difference is just the difference between those who entered early and those who entered late, and there is nothing shameful about it.
