Chapter 1980: Convergence!
In the blink of an eye, the day of the official start of the grand trial had arrived!
On this day, the long-silent ancient capital seemed to have regained its former prosperity!
In fact, not just today—this had been happening for several days already!
Today, however, it has reached its peak!
Last night, Su Chen and Ji Ya did not cultivate but instead had a good night’s rest, rejuvenating their spirits!
Early in the morning, the two of them had a simple breakfast on the first floor of the inn and went out!
The location of the grand trial is the square where registration took place a few days ago, and almost everyone was heading there!
When Su Chen and Ji Ya arrived there, it was already bustling with people, crowded even!
Some people indeed noticed Su Chen and Ji Ya, mainly because Su Chen had shocked many people here a few days ago!
"Is this the guy who killed the Duanhai Sect disciple a few days ago?!"
"That’s him!"
"It doesn’t look like it!"
"Shh! This kid is quite wicked!"
"But it’s strange, how is this guy still alive? Didn’t the Duanhai Sect avenge those two?"
"How could the Duanhai Sect swallow this anger?"
"It is indeed strange!"
"Perhaps this kid found a place to hide and the Duanhai Sect hasn’t found him yet! But daring to come today, there’s probably no way he’ll leave alive!"
"I think so too!"
"After all, he’s young; even at this time, he dares to participate in the grand trial!"
...
At this moment, many people began to discuss!
These days, the enmity between Su Chen and the Duanhai Sect has spread like wildfire!
Although those two weren’t ultimately killed by Su Chen, in others’ eyes, it was no different from him killing them!
Naturally, Su Chen doesn’t care what others say; he has always done things based on his own heart!
However, at this moment, he did notice that six large Douwu Platforms had been set up in the square, arranged in a matrix!
Moreover, some forces had already arrived, occupying areas closer to the Douwu Platforms!
"The people from the Overlord Martial Sect have arrived!"
At this moment, someone shouted.
Looking up, they saw a group of about a dozen people coming over!
But the most prominent was not the elders but a young man in a dark cyan robe!
"Is that Wu Chen? I’ve heard he has already claimed one of the top nine spots!"
"Is he that arrogant?"
"Arrogant? He has the strength! His cultivation has reached the Nine Turns of the Great Supreme Realm, second only to the Sect Master in the Overlord Martial Sect!"
Hearing this discussion, Su Chen and Ji Ya were secretly startled!
Great Supreme Realm Nine Turns, yet only claiming one of the top nine spots!
"Look! The people from the Tianhan Pavilion are here too!"
"This Tianhan Pavilion is a top ten sect force in the ancient dynasty!"
"Truly worthy of Tianhan Pavilion, nearly none below the Seventh Turn of the Great Supreme Realm!"
"The people from the Myriad Swords Sect have arrived!"
Just after the people from the Tianhan Pavilion walked past, another group came over!
The Myriad Swords Sect is also a well-established sect in the ancient dynasty!
"Are these people from the Black Flame Sect?"
After a while, upon seeing another group, someone immediately asked.
"Yes, I heard that a monstrous genius emerged from the Black Flame Sect a few years ago, taken as a closed-door disciple by the Sect Leader, who is about to shine in this grand trial!"
At this time, everyone’s attention was drawn to these successive forces, especially those prodigies being held up like stars!
As for Su Chen, although he wasn’t bad in the eyes of the public, he paled in comparison with these people!
Of course, Su Chen didn’t mind this, but looking at these people, he finally understood why the people of the ancient dynasty didn’t take dynasties seriously at all!
The gap in strength was too vast!
It was so large that there was no comparison!
At least in the forces that had arrived just now, very few were below the Third Turn of the Great Supreme Realm, and those above the Fifth Turn were numerous!
However, after a while, many of their eyes turned back to Su Chen again!
Because the people from the Duanhai Sect had arrived!
At this moment, the elder leading the Duanhai Sect had a dark face, as if mourning a family member!
The reason wasn’t hard to guess, as the biggest news in the ancient capital these days was about their Duanhai Sect!
Because many people looked at Su Chen, the elder quickly locked onto Su Chen from the crowd’s gaze!
A murderous aura spread like dark clouds covering the sky!
Others also looked at Su Chen with hatred, for it was a matter of the sect’s honor!
"Was it you who killed He Wendo?!"
In the next moment, he stepped up to Su Chen’s side and coldly asked.
"So what if it was?"
Su Chen smirked, casually replied.
Just now, everyone’s hearts seemed to tighten. Unexpectedly, even facing this elder from the Duanhai Sect, this person was still so arrogant!
Where did he get the courage?!
"Good, very good!"
Hearing this, the elder’s voice grew even icier:
"I hope you continue to do well!"
After saying that, he walked right past Su Chen!
Even a fool could understand that this sentence was a warning, a threat!
This was to tell him the Duanhai Sect would not let him go!
Many people thought that the Duanhai Sect had not yet sought revenge, perhaps not because they hadn’t found him, but because they were waiting for today’s grand occasion to make a move!
After all, the Duanhai Sect had lost face before, and the deaths of He Wendo and those two were minor, but the sect’s face was major!
Moreover, the exposure of He Wendo and their deeds also shamed the Duanhai Sect!
In their eyes, this matter was trivial; it was just a few ants dying!
But once exposed, the feeling was different!
It didn’t sound good!
It made them feel like they’d swallowed flies!
And the root of all this lay in this young man whose name they had never heard before!
From any angle, they had every reason to kill!
It must be said, those people guessed correctly, the Duanhai Sect indeed planned so, which is why they held back until today!
Of course, Su Chen had already thought of this!
After the Duanhai Sect, several other forces arrived one after another!
Su Chen discovered something; the forces on the ancient dynasty’s side were mainly sects, while family forces were relatively weak!
Additionally, there were indeed a few young people who were extraordinary, even giving him a slight sense of danger!
Among them was a young person from the Duanhai Sect!
...
Unlike Su Chen’s composure, Ji Ya’s face was grim!
The ancient dynasty’s forces were much stronger than she imagined!
Initially, even if those forces were strong, the worst that could happen was not achieving the expected results!
But now, with Su Chen standing against the Duanhai Sect, getting out unscathed seemed very difficult!
