Chapter 344: The 3rd Strongest Disciple?

Chapter 344: Chapter 344: The 3rd Strongest Disciple?

The Strongest Disciple!

These four words represent an identity, a status.

Moreover,

He Guang and Ye Zichen had been tied for the position of the strongest disciple for many years.

There had never been a third person.

He Guang’s words clearly implied that he believed Qin Chen possessed the potential to become the third strongest disciple.

That was precisely the point of their surprise.

After all,

they had all seen that Qin Chen’s Cultivation was merely at Yuan Condensation Eighth Layer.

And as for He Guang, he was at the Earth Element Realm.

Even if Qin Chen had topped the Puppet Tower, that just meant his Martial Intent was strong.

When it really came down to strength, how far was he from being the strongest disciple, probably a lot, right?

Not to mention others.

Even Qin Chen himself was somewhat surprised when he heard He Guang’s words.

Of course,

with Qin Chen’s current strength, even He Guang was definitely no match for him.

But,

on the surface, Qin Chen was just a Martial Artist at the Yuan Condensation Eighth Layer.

"Did he see Chen Qin’s talent and know that Chen Qin would eventually become the third strongest disciple?"

People around were surprised, but Kong Yuxuan was aware in his heart.

He had said before

that one’s talent could be seen from their Martial Intent.

Evidently,

He Guang, seeing that Qin Chen’s talent in Martial Intent was so extraordinary, considered Qin Chen a Heaven’s Pride and thus made such a statement.

"I believe it will be very soon."

Qin Chen gave He Guang a slight smile and nodded.

The title of the strongest disciple was just a nominal honor for Qin Chen.

He didn’t need to prove anything with his strength for the sake of this title.

Having said that,

Qin Chen left Puppet Island and returned to Baiyue Island.

And today,

the topic of discussion for the entire Blood Continent Sect was undoubtedly Qin Chen.

The unique achievement of a century—topping the Puppet Tower!

This was enough to shake the entire Blood Continent Sect.

...

The next day,

the Sea Sky Divine Palace was to open today.

Although Qin Chen’s topping of the Puppet Tower caused quite a stir yesterday,

with the opening of the Sea Sky Divine Palace today, the discussions about Qin Chen’s achievement were overshadowed.

After all, the opening of the Sea Sky Divine Palace was a grand event that happened only once every decade.

And not just the Blood Continent Sect,

the entire Blood Continent Islands showed signs of excitement.

Even Qin Chen was somewhat affected by this lively atmosphere.

He was very much looking forward to his journey to the Sea Sky Divine Palace.

Early in the morning,

the Communication Tokens of Qin Chen and his two companions received messages.

They were instructed to gather at Puppet Island.

The sender was Kong Yuxuan.

The three went together.

Before long, they arrived at Puppet Island.

Fu Feng, Kong Yuxuan, and some of the elders of the Blood Continent Sect were already waiting there.

He Guang, Ye Zichen, and other elite disciples, as well as ordinary disciples who could enter the Sea Sky Divine Palace, had all gathered here.

Upon seeing Qin Chen and his companions arrive, many eyes turned their way.

Clearly,

Qin Chen’s deed of topping the Puppet Tower yesterday had made him the center of attention today.

However, Qin Chen did not pay attention to these gazes.

He found an inconspicuous spot and quietly waited.

After a while,

seeing that the people were mostly present,

Fu Feng slowly began to speak.

The previously somewhat noisy venue immediately fell silent.

"Today is the day the Sea Sky Divine Palace opens."

"At the same time, it is also the day for the younger disciples of the major forces of the Blood Continent Islands to compete."

Fu Feng paused after saying this, then continued.

"During the last opening of the Sea Sky Divine Palace, our Blood Continent Sect always faced joint opposition from other powers,"

"Moreover, because killing is not forbidden within the Sea Sky Divine Palace, each time our disciples from the Blood Continent Sect enter, many of them end up dead or injured."

"Here, I hope that you all can unite and stand together against outside enemies!"

Having said this,

Fu Feng’s expression turned serious.

The principle that ’a tall tree catches the wind’ is known to all.

The overall strength of the Blood Continent Sect was too strong, which naturally led to being targeted by the combined efforts of many forces.

The injury or death of any disciple of the Blood Continent Sect was naturally not something Fu Feng wanted to see.

Fu Feng’s thoughts were clearly the same as Ye Zichen’s,

That was to unite and stand together against the external enemies.

"Among you, the two strongest disciples, Ye Zichen and He Guang, I hope that during this operation, you can do your best to protect the safety of your fellow disciples."

Fu Feng’s gaze fell upon Ye Zichen and He Guang.

"Mhm."

Ye Zichen and He Guang nodded in agreement.

In fact,

Ye Zichen had already made plans the day before, without needing Fu Feng to say much about it.

"There’s also..."

At this point,

Fu Feng’s gaze shifted in another direction.

And the person Fu Feng was looking at was none other than Qin Chen.

"Chen Qin!"

Fu Feng’s gaze was solemn.

"Your strength is not much weaker than He Guang’s or Ye Zichen’s."

"So I hope that at critical moments, you can also do your best to protect your fellow brothers and sisters,"

Fu Feng said.

Not much weaker than He Guang and the others?

Upon hearing Fu Feng’s words,

The disciples of the Blood Continent Sect all showed looks of astonishment.

Everyone could hear,

That Fu Feng’s words plainly elevated Qin Chen’s strength to the same level as that of He Guang and Ye Zichen.

But,

That was the issue right there.

They had all seen Qin Chen’s actual Cultivation,

Merely the Eighth Layer of Yuan Condensation.

How could he be put on equal footing with He Guang and Ye Zichen?

It was even more outrageous than He Guang assuming Qin Chen had the potential to become the strongest disciple!

With such Cultivation strength,

Qin Chen was not the weakest among this group, but he absolutely could not be ranked that high.

In the crowd,

A handsome young man looked at Qin Chen with a glimpse of resentment in his eyes.

This young man was none other than Xue Sen.

Initially,

After Qin Chen defeated him in their wager,

He not only lost stone coins but also his reputation.

Meanwhile, Qin Chen’s fame had soared.

This naturally made him feel extremely uncomfortable,

Even envious.

At this moment,

Hearing Fu Feng actually place Qin Chen on the same level as He Guang,

The jealousy in his heart suddenly erupted.

"Tower Master Fu, Chen Qin’s Cultivation is only at the Eighth Layer of Yuan Condensation. How can his strength compare with Brother He and Brother Ye?"

Xue Sen spoke with a gloomy tone.

Upon hearing Xue Sen’s words, Qin Chen frowned.

This guy, his words seemed to suggest that Qin Chen was nothing.

Hearing Xue Sen’s words,

Fu Feng’s gaze then turned towards Xue Sen.

"Perhaps you don’t know yet."

"A few days ago, Chen Qin had an encounter with the Sheentu Ancestor, who is ranked forty-fifth on the Blood Continent List."

"Although he was defeated by the Sheentu Ancestor, he did not lose his life."

"With such strength, do you really think it’s not enough?!"

Fu Feng spoke calmly.

"What?"

Upon hearing Fu Feng’s words,

Everyone present was stunned.
