Chapter 424: I’m Not the Demon Lord!
Zhang Heng and Luo Junjie looked at Yi Chen disdainfully.
They felt that Yi Chen must have cheated.
Because according to Elder Chen Fengtao, only those at the Spiritual Wheel Stage had a chance of reaching the end of Her Majesty’s formation.
Yi Chen hadn’t reached the Spiritual Wheel Stage at all, but he had reached the end.
It was obvious that he had used underhanded methods!
Thinking of this, Zhang Heng and Luo Junjie exchanged glances and decided to expose Yi Chen.
There were two reasons for this.
First, Yi Chen was once a disciple of the Wind Spirit Sect. Only by striking first and exposing him could they draw a clear line with him and avoid being implicated.
Second, taking the initiative to expose Yi Chen for cheating was also a sign of merit. This was also a good opportunity for the two of them to stand out in the Divine Martial Academy.
After making up their minds, they came to Yi Chen and prepared to report him after forcing him to admit that he cheated.
Zhang Heng said in a low voice, “Yi Chen, do you know that some of the systems in the Divine Martial Academy come from the army?”
“I know.” Yi Chen frowned slightly. “What do you mean?”
Zhang Heng said, “As the saying goes, military orders can’t be trifled with. The Divine Martial Academy can’t tolerate anyone violating the rules.”
“And you are violating the Divine Martial Academy’s rules!”
Yi Chen frowned. “What are you trying to say?”
Luo Junjie revealed a hint of anger.
“Yi Chen, stop pretending! Only people at the Spiritual Wheel Stage can reach the end of this formation, and you aren’t!”
“You must have cheated to get here!”
Yi Chen’s eyes revealed a hint of coldness as he clenched his fists.
“I, Yi Chen, am upright. How can I cheat?”
Zhang Heng pressed on. “Then tell me, what method did you use?”
Luo Junjie even berated, “You have to understand that you were once a disciple of the Wind Spirit Sect. What you did will definitely taint the reputation of our Wind Spirit Sect!”
“At that time, we might be implicated by you!”
“Nonsense!” Yi Chen sneered and was about to turn and leave.
He understood that Zhang Heng and Luo Junjie were so aggressive towards him because they were afraid that he cheated and they would be implicated.
How laughable!
If he revealed his full strength, it would be enough for him to step on these two people and make them unable to move.
And the Divine Martial Academy was personally set up by the empress. No matter how bold Yi Chen was, he wouldn’t dare to cheat here.
In the end, he had relied on his strength to reach the end!
So he didn’t want to get involved with Zhang Heng and the others.
As long as he successfully passed the test, he would be able to become famous and marry Yao Rui in the future.
Seeing that Yi Chen was about to leave, Zhang Heng and Luo Junjie were delighted. “This kid has a guilty conscience!”
They felt that this was a good opportunity to contribute.
If they exposed Yi Chen now, they would definitely gain the favor of the elders of the Divine Martial Academy.
“Stop right there!”
Zhang Heng circulated his true essence and used the Wind Spirit Sect’s ultimate technique, the Lunar Dragon Palm, before grabbing at Yi Chen’s shoulder.
Huh?
When he sensed the chill on his back, Yi Chen’s gaze turned cold.
He turned around abruptly, grabbed Zhang Heng’s wrist, and threw him aside with his right hand.
Suddenly, another terrifying fist force rushed over and slammed into Yi Chen’s chest like a huge rock.
“Nine Dragon Fist!”
Luo Junjie’s right fist was like a dragon as it moved towards Yi Chen’s chest with a black dragon shadow.
“Scram!”
Under Luo Junjie’s vicious fist force, Yi Chen was forced to explode with an extremely sharp sword energy.
Bang!
The sword energy shook and instantly shattered Luo Junjie’s right wrist. At the same time, it forced his body back a hundred feet.
Seeing this, Zhang Heng shouted in shock and anger, “Yi Chen, how dare you hurt people!”
This voice attracted everyone’s attention.
...Chen Fengtao and the other two elders were originally prepared to start the next round of assessment, but when they heard this, they hurriedly rode the Black-feathered Cloud Sparrow to fly above the three of them.
Looking down at Yi Chen, Chen Fengtao and the other two elders revealed shocked expressions.
“This guy… has not even reached the Mystic Realm!”
They naturally wouldn’t suspect that there was a problem with the formation set up by Donghuang Ziyou.
Then the only problem was Yi Chen himself!
Dou Yuanlong shouted, “What’s going on?”
Zhang Heng hurriedly pointed at Yi Chen. “Elders, his name is Yi Chen. He was a disciple of Wind Spirit Sect five years ago. Later on, because his talent was extremely poor, he was forced to leave the sect.”
“Today, another junior brother and I discovered that while his cultivation was weak, he came all the way to the high platform. We felt that he must have cheated.”
“But we just asked him a few questions, and he attacked us. He clearly has a guilty conscience!”
Chen Fengtao, Dou Yuanlong, and Gong Chunhai couldn’t help but look at each other.
Yi Chen’s cultivation was extremely weak. Logically speaking, he definitely couldn’t pass the first round of the test.
If he cheated, he would have violated the Divine Martial Academy’s recruitment system. He had to be severely punished!
However, the three elders remembered that the empress had once ordered that they couldn’t deal with problems arbitrarily. They had to do a full investigation.
Chen Fengtao stared at Yi Chen. “Your cultivation level is extremely inconsistent with your performance. There must be something wrong.”
“I’ll give you a chance to confess now and explain your cheating method. We can be lenient on you!”
Yi Chen’s gaze was firm. “I didn’t cheat! I relied on my own ability to get here!”
Swish!
Yi Chen’s words caused a commotion.
Everyone could tell that his cultivation level was extremely weak.
Unexpectedly, he was still being stubborn.
Dou Yuanlong said, “You said you didn’t cheat, so how did you complete this test with such a weak cultivation level?”
Yi Chen gritted his teeth. “I’m sorry, Elder. What I can guarantee is that I didn’t cheat. As for the reason, I can’t tell you now.”
He clenched his fists in frustration.
He didn’t want to expose his secret, but saying so now would definitely arouse the three elders’ suspicion.
As expected, Gong Chunhai berated,
“If you can’t say the reason, it’s equivalent to admitting to cheating!”
Chen Fengtao’s expression was stern. A Supremacy Realm pressure was executed, causing an area of five kilometers to tremble uneasily.
“I’ll give you three seconds to confess. Otherwise, according to the academy’s rules, you will be severely punished!”
Yi Chen was silent.
He didn’t speak even after three seconds.
“Alright, you’ve admitted to cheating!”
Chen Fengtao’s expression was enraged. “According to the rules of the Divine Martial Academy, those who cheat must be flogged at least three hundred times!”
“On account of the fact that you don’t have any cultivation base, I’ll punish you with the minimum!”
“Someone, take him down!”
With his order, a few tall and mighty soldiers standing at the side immediately went forward to surround Yi Chen.
At this moment, on the distant road, Yao Tianrong and Yao Rui looked up at the high platform halfway up the mountain.
Seeing that Yi Chen was already surrounded by soldiers, Yao Tianrong was delighted.
“Rui’er, Father is right. Yi Chen is a useless person!”
“Now that his cheating has been exposed and he has seriously violated the rules of the Divine Martial Academy, his life is over!”
Yao Rui’s fair face was filled with anguish. “Impossible! Impossible!”
“Seeing is believing. This kid has cheated. You’d better give up!”
Yao Tianrong grabbed Yao Rui’s hand with heartache. “Go home with me and don’t mention this person again!”
With that, he forcefully pulled Yao Rui and turned around to ride the demon beast back to the Mystic Cloud Sect.
Bang!!!
At this moment, the air above his head exploded with a powerful aura.
Yao Tianrong felt a majestic sword energy flash past his head. It was extremely shocking.
“This is?”
He hurriedly turned around and saw the mountainside in the distance.
Black light erupted from Yi Chen’s body and condensed into a shocking Demon Sword.
The sword waves were turbulent and the sword power was vast. It had the power to destroy the heavens and earth!
“How is this possible?!”
Sensing the vast and boundless sword energy, Yao Tianrong was instantly stunned.
At this moment, on the high platform halfway up the mountain,
Chen Fengtao, Dou Yuanlong, and Gong Chunhai were also shocked.
“Demon Sword!”
“This Demon Sword is engraved with nine lightning tribulation patterns. Could it be the legendary Nine Tribulations Demon Sword?”
“This sword energy is so powerful that it’s comparable to that of the Emperor Realm. It’s very likely the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword!”
They didn’t expect that just as the soldier was about to grab Yi Chen, he would actually activate a shocking Demon Sword in his body.
This Demon Sword had nine lightning tribulation patterns on the blade. It was very likely the legendary sword of the Nine Tribulations Demon Lord.
And just the sword energy of the Demon Sword made the three of them feel extremely troubled.
Chen Fengtao stared at Yi Chen with shock. “Why do you have the Nine Tribulations Demon Sword on you?”
At this moment, Yi Chen’s black hair flapped in the wind, and his eyes were dack. He stared at Chen Fengtao in an intimidating manner.
“This is something I got through opportunity, but I’m not the Demon Lord, nor have I become a demon!”
