Chapter 462: Tu Jiao Jiao Faces Thunder Tribulation, Mo Wen’s Future Opponent
As he spoke, Ma Guang launched an attack on Chen Changsheng.
“How bold! How can Mountain River Academy allow you to act so recklessly!”
A sharp shout came from a distance, as Tu Jiao Jiao flew in at incredible speed.
“Swish!”
She landed between the two and coldly looked at Ma Guang.
“The academy values talent and has not discarded your cultivation; you have only been expelled.”
“Now you come to the academy to act recklessly, repaying kindness with enmity.”
“Do you really think there is no one in Mountain River Academy?”
Upon hearing this, Ma Guang sneered, “Value talent?”
“This is truly the biggest joke in the world! The academy does not dare to discard my cultivation because it fears my Mighty Donkey Clan.”
“It’s perfectly normal for cultivators to fight. Since I moved against you with Emperor Artifacts, you expelled me from the academy.”
“I must return this humiliation to you.”
Facing Ma Guang’s words, Tu Jiao Jiao wanted to refute, but was stopped by Chen Changsheng.
“We can discuss these matters later. Let me add you as a friend first.”
Seeing Chen Changsheng extend his communicator, Tu Jiao Jiao rolled her eyes at him but ultimately accepted him as a friend.
After adding him, Chen Changsheng waved his hand and said, “I have no time for this. You can start fighting now.”
With that, Chen Changsheng found a concealed corner to sit down.
“Boom!”
Before Tu Jiao Jiao could fully react, Ma Guang struck first, seizing the initiative.
As a true disciple of the academy, Tu Jiao Jiao certainly wouldn’t be underestimated by Ma Guang.
Moreover, she had a mysterious Chen Changsheng backing her.
To win this battle, she had to seize the advantage.
The powerful backlash from their battle caused the earth to shake—a Mighty Donkey Clan member with strength enough to move mountains versus a robust Jiaolong.
The moment they clashed, the battle turned intense.
Though Tu Jiao Jiao’s level surpassed that of Ma Guang, she had not yet faced her thunder tribulation, so she dared not use her full strength.
Having passed his thunder tribulation, Ma Guang was no longer bound by its restrictions, and his own realm had received the cleansing of the tribulation.
Despite the difference in levels, he still pressed Tu Jiao Jiao hard.
The fight continued for half an hour, and Tu Jiao Jiao’s aura had become somewhat disordered.
The fierce battle made it difficult for her to suppress her own realm, and dark clouds began to gather in the otherwise clear sky.
Facing the impending thunder tribulation, Tu Jiao Jiao felt a bit flustered.
At that moment, Chen Changsheng’s calm voice came.
“The thunder tribulation is here; let’s give it a try. Stretching your head is a chop, retracting it is also a chop.”
“Instead of that, it’s better to fight it out.”
Hearing this, Tu Jiao Jiao gritted her silver teeth and immediately released the suppression on her realm.
“Buzz~”
Her aura surged violently as her vital energy rushed through her body, with a large amount of crystalline divine bl**d filling her bones.
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
Bones shattered and were reborn again; Tu Jiao Jiao had fully entered the Bone Transformation Realm.
As a true disciple of the academy, Tu Jiao Jiao had actually already reached the Bone Transformation Realm.
The reason for her delay in advancing was precisely due to the issue of the thunder tribulation.
“Rumble!”
Two silver bolts of lightning struck Tu Jiao Jiao and Ma Guang, yet both withstood it with their bodies.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng put away his communicator, watching the thunder tribulation with interest.
If other living beings intervene during the thunder tribulation, those intervening beings would also face the same tribulation.
There was one problem Chen Changsheng hadn’t clarified.
That is, whether the thunder tribulation faced by any being is based on itself or on the being undergoing the tribulation.
“Rumble!”
More bolts of lightning fell, but Ma Guang and Tu Jiao Jiao ignored the thunder and continued to fight.
Clearly, both wanted to drag the other into the tribulation’s destruction.
One relied on his strong physique, the other on having experienced a thunder tribulation.
In the thundercloud, they engaged in a life-and-d*ath struggle.
“One, two, three, four…”
Chen Changsheng counted the tribulation strikes quietly, murmuring, “Six nine thunder tribulations; it seems the tribulation is still based on its own standard.”
Just then, the thundercloud above Ma Guang changed, suddenly upgrading from six nine tribulations to seven nine tribulations.
Seeing this scene, Chen Changsheng raised an eyebrow and said, “Interesting; experiencing the thunder tribulation a second time increases its power.”
“Both are facing seven nine tribulations; who do you think will survive in the end?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Wen appeared beside Chen Changsheng.
“Hard to say, but I estimate both will survive.”
“What if they face a thunder sea?”
At this remark, Mo Wen turned to Chen Changsheng and said, “Do you want Tu Jiao Jiao to face the thunder sea?”
“Yes, because facing it sooner is better than later.”
“You saw the outcome of Yu Qing’s ordeal; delaying too long has no benefits.”
Hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, Mo Wen frowned, “But letting her face the thunder sea means certain d*ath.”
“The road of cultivation is essentially one of nine deaths and one life; if you’re afraid of d*ath, don’t step into cultivation.”
“Tu Jiao Jiao is from the Jiaolong clan, carrying the Jiaolong bloodline.”
“Based on my estimation, she will inevitably encounter thunder seas in the Rebirth Realm; if she can’t cross it now, eventually entering the coffin is just a matter of time.”
“Since you’ve made your decision, what else can I say? Your judgment has never been wrong.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng teasingly looked at Mo Wen.
“Kid, did you guess my identity? Not even using respectful language? Getting a bit overly familiar?”
“You’re still making arrangements, so you can’t reveal your identity.”
“Act the part fully; letting the world know your identity disrupts the plan.”
“Hahaha!”
“With your talent from the Xuan Bird Clan, it seems you’ve not let down Tianxuan’s expectations.”
“Alright, I’ll let you be for now. Are you ready to be defeated?”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s inquiry, Mo Wen looked into the distance and said, “I’ve been ready for a long time.”
“Managing the Xuan Bird Clan while also overseeing Mountain River Academy is really exhausting.”
“If it’s exhausting, let it be; at least this time, the Xuan Bird Clan is staying out of it.”
“Tell me, who do you want to be defeated by?”
“I naturally don’t have the courage to try your methods, but having lived for so many years, I do have a few insights on cultivation.”
“What do you think of Huafeng?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng looked up, thought for a moment, and said, “Huafeng still lacks a bit of timing; it’s probably not viable in the short term.”
“What about that kid from the Xu family? He has impressed me a bit.”
“That extreme cold and extreme heat physique doesn’t seem ordinary.”
“Who knows, maybe we will see one more powerful physique in this world.”
Hearing this, Mo Wen opened his mouth, “How far can he grow?”
“Hard to say; at least to the eighth rank Immortal King.”
“If he can go a bit further, maybe he will qualify to test his skills against a Scholar.”
“Then it’s settled; he will do.”
“I’ll also see how much weight the offspring of eight hundred Tiger Cavalry carries.”
