Astral Apostle

After the 47th expert was defeated by Chen Feng's spear in less than ten moves, no one finally went on stage again. No matter how the various sects persuaded Chen Feng that he was an arrow at the end of its flight, the remaining experts would not stand out.

What a joke. This person doesn't look like he's at the end of his rope at all. I think he can still fight for another day. Even if we fill in all of them, we won't be enough for him to swing around!

With so many examples, the experts really could not see any hope of defeating Chen Feng. They did not want to go up and fight at all.

Although they were not betting with their lives here, but getting beaten up still hurt!

If one was careless and was seriously injured, he would not be able to get out of bed for a few months. The gains would not make up for the losses.

Seeing that everyone was hesitating and no one accepted the challenge, Zhou Jing urged,

"What are you standing there for? Who's next?"

The expressions of the sect masters of the various sects were ugly. They wanted to participate personally, but they did not have the confidence to defeat Chen Feng. They were the face of a sect and could not lose easily.

The sect masters discussed in low voices. Then, Luo Zhen walked out and cupped his fists with a dark expression.

"Chief Chen is extremely capable and invincible in the world. We admit defeat!"

When Zhou Jing heard this, the corners of his mouth curled up, "You're not fighting anymore? Grandpa hasn't had enough yet!"

Luo Zhen held back his anger and said in a deep voice, "There's no need to compete anymore. Chief Chen is undoubtedly the number one expert in the world!"

They had already discussed it just now. No matter what, this title had to be given to Zhou Jing.

Although they had fulfilled the other party's reputation, with their "official certification" that this person was the number one expert in the world, the outcome of holding a Martial Arts Conference with great fanfare but ultimately losing was less embarrassing.

After all, losing to the "number one in the world" was easier to accept than losing to an ordinary martial artist… This was the "inspiration" they had obtained from Zhuo Jianchen.

He was indeed a senior. He could always give people "inspiration".

However, he Sect Master of the Diamond Vajra Sect was depressed. He was still brooding over Chen Feng being proficient in the cultivation techniques of his sect.

Stealing was a huge taboo in the martial world. According to the rules, their limbs should be broken and their martial arts crippled, but they were helpless against Chen Feng. Moreover, this could only be considered a trivial matter among Chen Feng's many deeds. Under the judgment of the situation, the Diamond Vajra Sect could only temporarily swallow their anger.

Seeing that the various sects had admitted defeat, the martial artists present all exclaimed in surprise.

The eight great sects had jointly created such a huge conference, and came with a huge force, but in the end, they admitted defeat to one person and even admitted that the other party was the number one in the world.

Everyone present knew that this news would definitely shock the world. After witnessing such a huge matter that would be recorded in the history of the martial world, apart from being shocked, they were also satisfied. They felt that this trip was not in vain.

Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a ping on the interface.

[Milestone Achievement [World's Best] has been completed.]

[You have been awarded 10,000 Astral Points and 150 Information State Particles.]

[You have received [Aptitude Enhancement - Comprehensive (Medium)], [Aptitude Enhancement - Martial Arts (Great)]

[You have received [Support Function Upgrade] x3]

[Apostle #004, Chen Feng, has received an additional characteristic, [Martial Arts Genius] — When this apostle uses martial arts skills, he can unleash greater power in actual combat.]

italics "Wow, it's finally done!" Zhou Jing was delighted.

This wave was twice the result with half the effort. He had to thank the eight great sects of the martial world for funding the martial arts conference and gathering all the martial artists from all over the world to witness him suppressing the experts of the various sects. His results were so brilliant that he instantly completed his milestone.

The reward was very generous. Zhou Jing almost wanted to study it immediately, but it was not suitable to be distracted in this situation. He temporarily suppressed his interest.

After completing this achievement that he had been longing for, Zhou Jing felt much more relaxed.

He closed the interface and glanced at everyone with a smile,

"Alright, since everyone has admitted defeat, let's talk about the prize."

"What prize?"

Luo Zhen and the others were stunned.

Zhou Jing pointed with his finger, "I'll remember which sects challenged me just now. Since you're willing to bet and admit defeat, obediently hand over your secret manuals as a prize for losing the bet."

"What?"

"We didn't agree to this bet. Don't put words in our mouths!"

The expressions of the sect leaders changed drastically.

Zhou Jing narrowed his eyes, "You set up such a formation to deal with me. If I lose, I have to return the secret manual, and if you lose, you have to pay no price? How can there be such a reason to take advantage of me for nothing? The bet is two-way. Since the bet you set is a secret manual, you should hand over the secret manual in your hands if you lose."

"Impossible!"

The people from the various sects rejected him without hesitation.

This condition was unacceptable to any sect present.

… Other than the Wu Mountain Sect.

In the furious crowd, Lin Song remained silent. Instead, he felt relaxed as if this had nothing to do with him.

In any case, their family background had long been exposed. Their Wu Mountain Sect was now a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

Luo Zhen said in a deep voice, "You won the competition today, but don't push your luck! No one is your match in a one-on-one battle, but it doesn't mean that we're afraid of you. There are thousands of martial artists here. Do you want to risk the world's condemnation and continue to trample on the rules of the martial world in front of everyone?"

The more people there were, the more courage they would have. When the various sects heard this, they echoed and rebuked.

"You have the ambition of a wolf. It's wishful thinking for you to plot against the secret manuals of the various sects!"

"Thief, don't pretend to be obedient after taking advantage!"

"That's right. How dare you behave atrociously here? Hurry up and retreat!"

Facing the accusations of the various factions, Zhou Jing's expression did not change.

He casually threw away the white tassel spear and pulled out the Coiling Dragon Spear that had been stabbed into the ground. He rubbed the pure iron shaft and shook his head.

"Looks like I can't stop here today. As expected, it's easier to use an old friend."

The bandits following him immediately drew their sabers and formed a battle formation.

Seeing this, the disciples of the various sects also drew their weapons and faced each other.

The atmosphere between the two sides became tense in the blink of an eye.

The Diamond Vajra Sect Master gritted his teeth and shouted at the many martial artists watching the commotion,

"Fellow cultivators of the martial world, this Chen Feng is ambitious and tramples on the rules wantonly. How can the martial world allow such an madman to do evil without restraint? Everyone, let's fight side by side!"

He spoke with a righteous tone, talking about the rules of the martial world. He originally thought that he could get everyone to agree with him. At the very least, he could get most people to stand on their side and obtain support.

However, to his surprise, many people from the martial world showed no signs of responding after hearing his words. Instead, they retreated one after another with no intention of interfering. At the same time, they revealed subtle expressions.

What flickered in these people's eyes was not that they were on the same side as the various large sects, but an inexplicable fervor and faint desire.

The corners of Zhou Jing's mouth curled up slightly.

This situation was one of the few possibilities he had expected.

After all, although most of the martial artists said that they were part of the martial world, they were actually just wasting their time. In their entire lives, they might not be able to come into contact with high-tier martial arts. They could only practice some plebian farmer techniques over and over again. Most of them would only be second or third-rate figures even if they practiced until they were old.

As for him, the appearance of a "generous" person who could help them "break open" the door and spread martial arts everywhere might not be a bad thing in the eyes of most martial artists — or rather, they were happy to see such a thing!
