When Chen Lingkong announced the rules for the second round of competition, not only Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian were angry, but even the members of the Chen clan felt a little unbelievable.

Before, they were still speculating that Chen Lingkong would definitely not adopt the rules of the first round of wheel battles. After all, any one of Chen Daoyuan, Chen Qiushui, and Chen Xiaoyun could easily defeat Chen Xi.

If the rules of the first round of competition were adopted again, it would be a bit too bullying to Chen Xi.

But who would have thought that although Chen Lingkong didn't do this, he announced a rule that was even stricter than the first round of competition!

Four people melee?

Could it be that Chen Daoyuan and the three of them were to deal with Chen Xi alone?

This is too ridiculous, right?

Of course, those members of the Chen clan would not speak out against Chen Xi's injustice, but this did not mean that they could accept this rule in their hearts.

"The Supreme Elder... seems to think too highly of Chen Xi. Letting Chen Daoyuan and the three of them go out together is like asking three eagles to kill an ant. It's too good to be useful."

"How could this be? Could it be that the Supreme Elder thought that none of the three of them, Chen Daoyuan, would be able to suppress Chen Xi, so they made such regulations?"

"Perhaps, the Supreme Elder has lost his patience, and wants to completely kick that kid out of the game with an absolute advantage, so as not to let him continue to be arrogant."

"But... if you do this, it will eventually appear that our Chen family is a little bully if it gets out, and it will also affect the reputation of our family."

There was a lot of discussion, and almost all the members of the Chen clan were a little bit suspicious. They couldn't figure out Chen Lingkong's mind, and they didn't know what kind of consideration he had in order to do this.

Is Chen Lingkong an idiot?

Certainly not, he must have some purpose for doing this!

This is the point of view of those members of the Chen clan.

……

"Chen Lingkong has lost his bearing by doing this. He is obviously deliberately teasing that Chen Xi. This is not like the bearing of a clan grand elder."

"Perhaps, the tragedy that happened in the first round of confrontation has completely messed him up?"

At this moment, even the guests watching the ceremony couldn't help frowning, thinking that Chen Lingkong's actions were out of proportion and inappropriate.

However, they were guests after all, so it was hard to say anything about it, and they could only secretly complain for Chen Xi in their hearts.

……

"This……"

Chen Daoyuan was startled, and his brows were furrowed. Chen Lingkong's arrangement also made him feel a little uncomfortable.

A guy who is only a four-star field major, even if his combat power is against the sky, he won't let the three of them go out together, right?

"I can't accept it. If it gets out, even if you win this kid, it will be disgraceful."

Chen Qiushui also had difficulty understanding this arrangement.

"Who knows what the Supreme Elder is thinking at this moment?"

Chen Xiaoyun on the other side murmured, the pride and dignity in his heart made him very dissatisfied with this arrangement.

This is obviously destroying one's prestige and boosting others' ambition!

But no matter what, the three of them didn't dare to question this. It was obviously impossible to question Chen Lingkong's authority under the watchful eyes of the crowd.

It's no different than indirectly helping the son of a sinner, which they wouldn't do.

……

The whole audience was discussing, wondering and uncertain, and the scene became extremely noisy for a while.

Faced with this, Chen Lingkong seemed unaware, with a calm and majestic expression from the beginning to the end, perhaps he had already expected that such a scene would appear when the rule was announced.

"If there is no objection, now the four of you will step into the ring and start the second round of competition!"

Chen Lingkong spoke in a deep voice, and his voice spread in all directions.

This made everyone immediately understand that Chen Lingkong was determined to do this this time.

"Wait a minute!"

At this moment, Wu Xuechan suddenly got up, and said with a cold expression: "Fellow Daoist, do you think that I, Shenyan Mountain, are really easy to bully?"

The words were calm, but there was a coercive power that made the sound of the audience disappear suddenly, and the atmosphere became depressing.

Shen Yanshan was furious!

It's normal to think about it. Under such circumstances, if you don't stand up and object, it will appear that Shenyan Mountain is too incompetent.

"Bully?"

Chen Lingkong said with a blank expression, "Mr. Big, this rule is very fair. The four of them fight in a melee, and compete for the final place based on their ability. How can there be bullying?"

"Chen Lingkong, so you really plan to tear yourself apart?"

Tang Xian got up abruptly, and said coldly, his attitude was tougher than Wu Xuechan's, and his words were not polite at all, with a touch of threat.

All the members of the Chen Clan in the audience were shocked and felt uncomfortable. The people from Shenyan Mountain were too arrogant, daring to threaten the Supreme Elder on their territory, it was simply too much!

No matter how unfair the rules are, they are made for the members of the Chen clan. Who let you, Shenyan Mountain, get involved?

Now that you're mixed in, you have to accept the rules, don't you?

"Two fellow daoists, calm down. Chen definitely has no intention of targeting Shenyan Mountain. The competition for the successor is an internal matter of my Chen clan. The rules should be formulated by my Chen clan. Since Chen Xi is involved, Just act according to the rules of our clan."

Chen Lingkong seemed to have fought all the way, his attitude seemed lukewarm, but in fact he refused to give up an inch and was extremely tough.

The expressions of Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian became colder and colder, which meant that the two of them were really angry and were about to explode.

Once the two Masters of Tongtian Taoism get angry, one can imagine how terrifying the aura will be.

All of a sudden, the world was trembling, filled with a terrifying pressure that made everyone present feel a sense of suffocation, like falling into an ice cave.

Even Chen Lingjun's face darkened and his eyes flickered, but in the end he didn't say a word, as if he had made the worst plan.

"Two senior brothers, just do as he said."

At this critical juncture, when swords were on the verge of breaking out and the smell of gunpowder was full, Chen Xi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, and his voice conveyed to the audience.

Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian frowned immediately.

The others present were also stunned, as if they never expected that Chen Xi would actually agree to conduct the second round of duel according to such rules.

"Little brother, are you sure?"

Wu Xuechan frowned and said, "You can rest assured, even if you withdraw from the competition at this moment, I promise that I will not disappoint you."

"I want to try."

Chen Xi smiled, his expression was calm, without any look of anger.

"it is good."

Wu Xuechan was silent for a moment, finally took a deep breath, and sat down slowly.

"It doesn't matter if you fight a single battle, even if you lose, at least it won't damage the reputation of my Shenyan Mountain."

Tang Xian also sat down.

As the two sat down again, the suffocating oppressive force disappeared without a trace, making everyone in the audience heave a sigh of relief.

It's just that when they thought that Chen Xi had actually agreed, everyone couldn't help feeling mixed emotions in their hearts. Not everyone can possess this kind of courage.

Based on this alone, Chen Xi was enough to make many of them feel ashamed.

……

"Junior Brother Tang Xian, after this duel is over, maybe we should settle the score with Chen Lingkong."

Wu Xuechan looked calm and indifferent.

"I thought so too."

Tang Xian paused word by word.

Chen Xi might be able to temporarily accept this irritating and unfair rule, but it doesn't mean that the two of them can accept it!

……

"The second round of the showdown begins now!"

On the altar, Chen Lingkong took a deep breath and announced in a deep voice.

Only he himself knows best why he did this, because he absolutely cannot tolerate Chen Xi winning!

Not to mention giving Chen Xi any chance!

This is related to that sinner, Chen Lingjun, and it is even more related to that treasure that can affect the fate of the entire Chen clan!

Therefore, even at this time, Chen Lingkong would not hesitate to tear up his face with Shenyan Mountain.

Whoosh whoosh~

There was a sound of breaking through the air, and Chen Daoyuan, Chen Qiushui, and Chen Xiaoyun, who had been waiting for a long time, vacated and came to the ring.

"Later, Xiaoyun will take the lead in dealing with him. Qiushui, you and I will stand by the side! In this way, you won't be bullying him too much."

Chen Daoyuan said via voice transmission.

"Alright."

Chen Xiaoyun nodded, this arrangement was exactly what he wanted.

"But...will it dissatisfy the Supreme Elder?"

Chen Qiushui was somewhat hesitant.

"Don't worry, even if the situation changes during the battle, it won't be too late for you and me to fight. In the end, Chen Xi will definitely be defeated. The Supreme Elder will not criticize us for what has already been determined."

Chen Daoyuan explained softly.

He did this because firstly, he didn't want to make the Chen clan and Shenyan Mountain quarrel too stiffly, and secondly, because of the dignity and pride in his heart, he didn't want to bully his opponent this time.

Anyway, it is a matchup that must be won, so why not win with dignity?

swoosh~

At this moment, Chen Xi's figure flashed, and he also stepped onto the ring, confronting Chen Daoyuan and the other three in the distance.

His figure was tall and straight, his expression was indifferent and calm, without any trace of fear.

But only Chen Xi knew clearly that this battle was destined to be the most difficult and dangerous one he had encountered since his cultivation.

His opponents include not only two powerful beings who have reached the eight-star domain master realm, but also a nine-star domain master who is only one step away from stepping into the Tao master realm!

What's more, these three people are all descendants of the lineage of the Dao Protector God Clan, possessing a unique innate background, and they themselves are peerless figures in the Domain Master Realm, each of them has a powerful combat power that is incomparable to those in the same realm.

Under such circumstances, Chen Xi didn't dare to be careless at all.

After all, he only possesses the cultivation base of the main realm of the four-star field, and the gap in cultivation bases is too great, and it is still a one-on-three situation, and it is replaced by other people.

Because anyone with a discerning eye could see that in such a completely unfair duel, Chen Xi was already at an absolute disadvantage when there was no fight, and he had no chance of winning at all!

Going to fight again is just a futile struggle, and it is doomed not to change the result.

This was everyone's opinion, even Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian no longer expected Chen Xi to win.

After all, the disparity is too great!

And this is exactly the reason why Wu Xuechan and Tang Xian were completely angry.
