This scene did not intimidate Yao Yuntong. She still looked fearless and resolute. However, her expression involuntarily changed when she heard the footsteps behind her. She looked back and saw other human pract.i.tioners retreating to dodge the Spirit’s attack.

“A bunch of cowards!” Yao Yuntong said, annoyed.

Although it was a conflict between her and the Spirit, it had started because the Spirit insulted the human race and infringed on their rights. However, not only did her peers not fight back, but they also flinched at such a crucial moment.

“Just get used to it,” Jiang Chen comforted her. It was nothing new for him. He was used to it. Only six miles away from them, the Spirits were putting them under huge pressure. They could not even breathe.

“Is it allowed to go all out in the Doctrine Palace?” Jiang Chen asked.

“Yes, it is. But be careful. There are many hidden risks in the Doctrine Palace. You absolutely don’t want to trigger them.” Knowing what he was suggesting, Yao Yuntong said quietly.

“You want to go all out? You think you are good enough to do that?” The large man laughed disdainfully after hearing their conversation. He threw a powerful punch over. It was an average attack, but aided by the energy of the earth under his feet, it was too fierce to resist.

“Who the h.e.l.l are you? How dare you question my ability?” Jiang Chen said unhappily, throwing a punch as well.

“Ignorant!” The large man decided to kill him. His punch became harder.

“Watch out! Don’t do close combat with the Earth Spirit!” Realizing something, Yao Yuntong hurried to warn him. She was as pale as a ghost.

Unfortunately, it was too late. Jiang Chen had thrown his punch. It had made contact with the man’s large hand.

A m.u.f.fled blare could be heard. The people standing around had a heavy feeling in their chests, as if they had received a punch.

By comparison, the Spirits were fine since they had been prepared for it. However, they all turned pale after seeing what had happened afterward.

The large man took four or five steps backward. His steps made the earth quake, causing the Spirits to fall onto the ground. His hand palm was still slightly shaking. He was as pale as a sheet.

“Earth Spirit? Not so great.” Jiang Chen walked forward in an aggressive manner. His strength was surging like an angry wave, forcing the large man to retreat.

The other aggressive Spirits lost their confidence too. “How strong is this guy?!”

Yao Yuntong could hardly believe what she had seen either. He had done a close combat with an Earth Spirit without using thunder, and he remained at an advantage.

“I challenged him to have a duel with me….” Yao Yuntong murmured. She realized Jiang Chen would probably be able to enter the Fourth Palace this day.

“One of the best humans bullied an average Spirit. It’s nothing worth bragging about,” the female Spirit said in anger. She was not convinced.

“You mean he is only mediocre?” Pointing at the large man, Jiang Chen said, amused.

The female Spirit was shocked. She hurried to explain, “Brother Gang, that’s not what I mean.”

The large man did not respond. Staring at Jiang Chen, he said in a cold voice, “You think you’ve won?”

“I haven’t?” Lifting his chin, Jiang Chen looked down at him from a high place. He had to admit that it felt good. No wonder people always showed up before him in this way.

“Force of Earth!” The large man shouted. A shocking change happened to him. The Spirits around him were all scared off. Under the large man’s feet, endless forces were entering his body. His muscular body bulged again. His bone could not stop cracking, like an ignited firecracker.

“This is an advanced spirit method of the Earth Spirit!” Something occurred to Yao Yuntong. She was looking for something among the other Spirits. As expected, she saw a few Earth Spirits sitting on the ground with their eyes closed, which was not very normal.

Observing and using her holy awareness, she found these Earth Spirits were giving their forces to the large man.

“Shame on you!” This was not fair at all. Yao Yuntong was going to act against it immediately. However, since the female Spirit and some other Spirits were protecting them, it was far from enough if she fought with them alone.

“What are you waiting for? Crack this Spirit method with me. There is nothing to fear!” Yao Yuntong shouted at the human pract.i.tioners behind her. There were quite a few strong men among these Doctrine Palace challengers, whom she could use.

However, glancing at each other, they seemed quite confused. “Forget it. We can just line up. It’s not necessary to make things worse.”

“Yeah. It’s not good to fight with the Spirit.”

“You only see these Spirits here, but a Spirit genius finished this task earlier. He is probably in the Second Palace or even the Third Palace now.”

“We’ll be doomed if we run into him.”

Some timid humans said, one by one. Many people who were still hesitating stayed silent.

“That’s why you humans are so weak.” Noticing what was happening there, the large man said complacently.

Aided by the Spirit method, his strength had become many times stronger.

“Human, do you dare fight with me in the sword formation?!” he said.

Since they could not fly here, the Doctrine Palace would probably be affected if they got into a fight. Although the Doctrine Palace could self-repair, they would not be able to complete the challenges this time if it was damaged.

“Why not?” Jiang Chen entered the sword formation first. He was fearless.

“Huh.” The large man was not very happy with this. He thought to himself, I’ll beat you until you kneel down to repent.

Then he entered the sword formation as well.

“They’ve entered the formation together. One of them will fail, or both of them.”

With two men in the sword formation, the transparent fluctuation of the blades seemed more threatening. They would probably lose their lives if they were not concentrated enough.

It did not seem to be a concern of the large man. His defense was super strong. He was determined to kill Jiang Chen here even if he was injured. For this reason, he launched a very aggressive attack.

He looked like a fierce beast in human shape. Ceaselessly throwing his fist and his palm over in a threatening and fast manner, he would not allow Jiang Chen to be more than two miles away from him.

Jiang Chen had not thought about dodging either. Releasing his power of thunder, he took the initiative to confront the attack.

“He knows thunder method too?”

The female Spirit was shocked. Then looking toward Yao Yuntong tauntingly, she said, “So, you picked him to be your lover. You don’t have any taste at all.”

In the Three Middle Realms, Yao Yuntong was very famous for her thunder method inheritance. Now that a man with her knew thunder method as well, it was natural for others to think they were a couple.

“Those forces only hope you can impart your thunder method to your offspring, but you even imparted it to your lover. I’m curious what the Mysterious Thunder School will say,” she added.

“Idiot.” Throwing her a glance, Yao Yuntong cursed. She did not say anything else.

“You! What happened?!”

The female Spirit wanted to add something, but she suddenly found the large man was still being overwhelmed by Jiang Chen in the sword formation. The latter was having the complete advantage over the large man.

“Darn it!”

Gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth, the large man held Jiang Chen’s fists with his hands suddenly. He was making an effort to open them. It was a compet.i.tion of force.

At this moment, numerous blades flew toward them.

“He, he.” The large man showed a complacent smile. He exerted a spirit method again. His entire body petrified quickly. In the end, he became granite.

Jiang Chen’s fists were stuck in the granite. It was super-dangerous for him.
