She unleashed the Ice Soul Blade, gripping it horizontally with both hands, then spun counterclockwise. An immense and vast water elemental energy swirled up like falling leaves and flying flowers, enveloping several square meters around her, and a biting cold surged down towards the stage below, causing a large number of spectators to gasp in shock!

Just then, Tianhui stepped forward in time; as he spread his hands, several golden barriers suddenly appeared in the air. The biting cold was blocked by the barriers as soon as it approached, unable to escape! And the cold that was trapped within the arena surged towards Su Chen's back, meeting the scorching flames with a sizzling sound of melting!

Two forces of flames advanced like slow-moving earthen dragons, pushing the surging cold inch by inch. Jolena furrowed her brow, feeling the external pressure increasing; the extraordinarily hot flames seemed close to igniting her.

Decisively, she let out a light shout, circulating all the Beast's Qi Energy in her body, adding it to the original power of the Ice Soul Blade. Now, both forces were evenly matched, and two entirely different energies confronted each other in mid-air, creating a small space that was both extremely cold and extremely hot!

Suddenly, Su Chen's face darkened, the power of fire in his palms weakened, and the advantageous position quickly shifted to Jolena!

Jolena's expression turned cold as she exerted all her strength, attempting to overpower Su Chen decisively.

But at that moment, Su Chen suddenly pulled back, withdrawing all the fire power! Without the counterbalancing force, Jolena struggled to control it, allowing the massive cold to surge toward Su Chen!

With a low shout, Su Chen summoned the Blood Light Sword once more into his hand, applying a gust of wind to transform into a phantom and evade the attack. Then, like a specter, he tread on illusory steps and arrived in front of Jolena in an instant!

A diagonal slash instantly collided with the Ice Soul Blade, sparking flames in all directions. Jolena let out a low shout and extended her left palm, imprinting deep blue elemental energy towards Su Chen's heart!

Su Chen shifted his position, exerting more strength with both hands, pressing the Ice Soul Blade close to Jolena's snow-white neck. Jolena's retracted left palm formed into a knife shape, slicing horizontally at Su Chen's waist!

In a moment of crisis, Su Chen leaped like a nimble monkey, performing a backflip to land behind Jolena. Before his feet touched the ground, he kicked out with both feet simultaneously; Jolena didn't turn around but swung her sword with a flick, with Su Chen stepping on the sword blade to propel himself and retreat several meters. Then, with his left palm supporting the ground, his body rotated and shot swiftly backward. Holding a sword in one hand and forming a palm with the other, he attacked Jolena!

"Wind Vortex!"

Just meters away from Jolena, Su Chen's left palm suddenly sprayed out a swirl of azure wind, making it so Jolena couldn't open her eyes against the barrage. She gritted her teeth, her knees bent strangely, instantly lowering her center of gravity to avoid the sharp strike, then kicked off with her left foot to dash diagonally from the right, her right arm suddenly swinging her sword, leveraging the intense recoil, slashing towards Su Chen's back!

As if he had eyes in the back of his head, the Blood Light Sword instinctively returned to block the sneaky strike from the Ice Soul Blade, but the next moment, Su Chen realized he had fallen for a trick!

An intense cold instantly froze his hand on the Blood Light Sword, and taking advantage of the moment when Su Chen released the fire, Jolena let out a low shout again, her right wrist turning abruptly, the Ice Soul Blade flicking out several blooms of icy cold sword flowers!

She aimed to rinse away the humiliation Su Chen had inflicted earlier with the same move!

The sword flowers rapidly expanded before his eyes; Su Chen gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted, "Wind Flame Burst!"

A whirlpool-like wind erupted within his body, swiftly swirling up into an azure vortex with tremendous shredding power, destroying all the sword flowers. Simultaneously, Jolena, who was close at hand, was suctioned forward, her entire being floating into the air!

"Perish!"

A flash of red light flickered in Su Chen's eyes, several black markings flashed across his forehead, followed by a skyward surge of murderous aura!

Jolena floated into the air, swept within the vortex, her body instantly marked with numerous wounds! Yet she didn't succumb to fear as Su Chen's previous opponents had. Gathering all her strength, she released a deep-blue water elemental energy that infused the Ice Soul Blade, instantly emitting an extremely bright beam!

The beam pierced through the azure light of the Wind Flame Burst, shooting straight towards Su Chen's brow!

Su Chen hadn't the time to defend, struck directly, his body convulsing instantaneously!

As the residual power of the Wind Flame Burst dissipated, Jolena, with her wounds all over the body, fell heavily onto the ground. She moved painfully, turning her gaze to the motionless Su Chen standing there, a trace of final cold severity in her eyes.

Desiring to kill me truly... I'll ensure you find no resting place first!

There was a dead silence below the stage once more. People gazed at the puppet-like frozen Su Chen, many still unsure of what had occurred.

Phoenix's beautiful eyes widened in disbelief, seeing Su Chen struck by the blue light, constantly shaking her head, "No, it can't be, I must've seen it wrong, Su Chen couldn't be defeated so easily, he can't be!"

Dolmont's facial flesh trembled, his tiny eyes almost squeezed shut, hardly visible. Yet the shock and horror on his face were plainly evident.

"Impossible, Tianhui, tell me, what's... what's actually happening?"

Tianhui shook his head silently.

On the other side, Qiao Buyi's eyes narrowed slightly, his expression becoming very strange. As a Beast Emperor, he naturally saw through things more clearly than average people: that boy, was still alive!

"Father..."

Qiao Buyi shook his head, gesturing for silence, with a solemn gaze that Jolena's parents had never seen before. They looked again towards the fighters' stage, their expressions puzzled.

Jolena slowly stood up, taking one last look at Su Chen before turning around. She was waiting for the verdict from the referee.

But after a while, she awaited a low call from Su Chen. Her body trembled violently, turning back abruptly!

What she thought was a lifeless opponent now had a faintly disdainful smile on his lips, and the vacuous look in his eyes had regained vitality. He raised his left hand and touched the brow marked by the blue beam, slowly saying, "A mid-grade Spiritual Treasure is indeed powerful, but alas, your Beast Cultivator strength is too weak."

Jolena, with her bewildered expression, blinked and suddenly understood, pulling a cold smile across her lips, her tone uncompromising, "Really? Then defeat me and see..."

But before she finished her sentence, a figure, too fast for the naked eye, suddenly appeared right before her! Her heart raced in horror; just as she was about to lift the Ice Soul Blade in defense, she was struck by a solid hand, flying backward through the air! But it wasn't over; in the next moment, Su Chen's ghost-like figure followed, adopting an utterly disdainful posture as he gazed down at Jolena's pale face from above!

"Don't you understand yet? The one fighting you all along was merely me when we first met! Now, defeating you is a breeze!"

Su Chen's demeanor was wild; in Jolena's stunned eyes, his palm descended powerfully, slamming her heavily into the ground!

Fragments of rubble scattered and flew up, while Jolena's pupils instantly turned ashen. The last bit of consciousness continually echoed Su Chen's words: The one fighting you all along was merely me when we first met...

Su Chen stood calmly on the shattered arena. The gaze directed at Jolena lying on the ground was nothing but indifferent. Yet, no one dared disregard Su Chen in this state.

Because...

Behind him floated an ethereal dark qilin! The blue light spreading in wave-like ripples was tranquil, as if only a stone had been dropped just now.

Everyone was stunned, even the citizens of Muni City notorious for stirring drama, ceasing their noise altogether. The spacious stadium held only breaths, sometimes rapid, sometimes suppressed.

Beast Lord, this was the only word that came to their minds. A thirteen-year-old Eastern youth possessing the fearsome power of a Beast Lord...

A bright gleam flashed in Qiao Buyi's eyes, only to vanish a moment later, replaced by serenity. Yet anyone sitting beside him could tell his breathing had noticeably increased.

In the royal box, Jin Chengxuan glanced at his equally astonished daughter Ginny, his face displaying only shock. Looking again at the pampered concubines, all covering their mouths and gazing at Su Chen silently on the stage, gaping like he was a monster, inhaling sharply.
