The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms - Chapter 510
Chapter 510: Chapter 507: Even Cats and Dogs Want to Challenge Me_1
As the saying goes, “It is easy to change the landscape, but difficult to change one’s nature.” Indeed, Han Tianying’s generosity has caused him to not want to continue bickering with Han Lingling. However, it was obvious that while he didn’t want to argue with Han Lingling, she didn’t think the same.
“Challenge?”
“What’s going on!”
“Someone’s challenging Yang Chen?”
Hearing that someone wanted to challenge Yang Chen, Steward Xu from the side was slightly taken aback and couldn’t help but say, “Teacher-in-charge, Ma Shenghe and Han Lingling are in a betrothed relationship, and now that he wants to challenge Yang Chen, it’s probably mostly because of Han Lingling’s instigation. If we in Beishan Main City don’t want to offend Yang Chen, it would be better to stop this match.”
Mo Zhi Jiao did not hastily reply to Steward Xu but stood there with his hands behind his back, stroking his chin as he thought to himself.
After pondering for a while, Mo Zhi Jiao waved his sleeve and said, “There’s no need to panic. The grudge between Han Lingling and Yang Chen has existed for a long time, and forcibly dissolving it might not be easy. In that case, instead of blocking, let it be. Since Ma Shenghe wants to challenge Yang Chen, let’s take this opportunity to see how strong Yang Chen really is. I am curious if Yang Chen can truly live up to the standard of the twentieth floor of the Trial Tower…”
“But if Ma Shenghe loses…”
“How do you know that Ma Shenghe will definitely lose? He is a genius from Changning County. Although he is not top-tier there, he is more than capable of dealing with Yang Chen.” Xiao Steward coldly replied, his grudge with Steward Xu evidently unresolved.
Like Xiao Steward, Ma Shenghe had a strong sense of regional superiority – that’s why he dared to challenge Yang Chen.
He believed that compared with North Mountain County, even an average genius like him from Changning County would sweep through North Mountain County with ease.
His initial confidence wasn’t that strong, but when he came from Changning County to North Mountain County and saw how those local geniuses looked at him with admiration and respect, coupled with his much higher martial arts cultivation, he developed this sense of superiority.
North Mountain County’s geniuses were simply too mediocre, and he could easily crush them.
Yang Chen might be exceptional, but being born in North Mountain County, he was destined to be inferior to Ma Shenghe!
Being born in a remote place like North Mountain County made one inherently weak, while he, Ma Shenghe, was born in Changning County, and even if he didn’t shine there, he was still stronger than Yang Chen!
With these thoughts lingering in his heart, Ma Shenghe became more and more confident. He looked at Yang Chen without speaking, with his hands behind his back, and said expressionlessly, “Yang Chen, if you don’t speak, should I take it that you dare not accept my challenge?”
“Who is this guy?”
“You don’t know him? He’s Han Lingling’s fiancé and has reached the second layer of the Origin Martial Realm at such a young age!”
“What? The second layer of Origin Martial Realm.”
“Yeah, otherwise do you think Yang Chen would be too afraid to accept the challenge and remain silent? Now is the time for Yang Chen to be in the limelight after making it through the Trial Tower. However, he remains silent, which indicates that he dares not accept the challenge.”
“There’s still quite a gap between the Half-step Yuan Martial Realm and the Second Layer of the Origin Martial Realm.”
“In my opinion, Yang Chen must have realized the gap. Although he’s not bad either, he’s still lacking compared to geniuses in the Second Layer of the Origin Martial Realm.”
“Don’t forget, Yang Chen made it to the twentieth floor of the Trial Tower, which means he has the strength to challenge those at higher levels.”
“Is breaking the level that valuable? Ma Shenghe is also a genius, and he can also break the level. When it comes to a real fight, Ma Shenghe might not be afraid of Yang Chen, considering his absolute lead in martial arts cultivation!”
Hearing the direction of the public opinion, Ma Shenghe appeared triumphant t this point, as if he had already achieved victory. He looked at Yang Chen and said, “What’s the matter, Yang Chen? Are you afraid?”
Standing nearby, Han Lingling’s face was filled with joy. It seemed as if Yang Chen was already frightened?
Just now, Yang Chen had been silent and didn’t say anything.
Because he really didn’t want to explain anything.
It was tiring to explain every single time.
However, it was clear that if he didn’t explain, Ma Shenghe still thought that he was very powerful and could disrespect him at will.
Yang Chen couldn’t help but say helplessly, “Your name is Ma Shenghe?”
“So what if it is?” Ma Shenghe crossed his arms, his confidence growing from initially uncertain to overwhelming now. He thought that Yang Chen was nothing special.
Yang Chen shook his head and casually asked, “You just said you wanted to challenge me?”
“Yes, are you scared?” The ferocious, grim expression on Ma Shenghe’s face emerged.
Yang Chen shrugged and said, “Scared? I’m sorry, but you seem to have misunderstood something. If you’re too foolish to understand, fine, I can explain it to you. Do you see this Trial Tower? I just made it to the twentieth floor. How many floors can you make it to?”
Upon hearing Yang Chen talking about the Trial Tower, Ma Shenghe was puzzled, “What do you mean?”
“What I mean is simple: go to the Trial Tower first, reach the twentieth floor, then come challenge me.” Yang Chen didn’t want to waste any more words: “Don’t worry, I won’t leave Beishan Main City for a day or two. Wait till you’re done and come find me. I’ll gladly accept your challenge then.”
Ma Shenghe was stunned by Yang Chen’s words. He subconsciously wanted to challenge the twentieth floor of the Trial Tower, but quickly realized that he couldn’t make it there at all. If he could, why would he be abandoned like a pawn by Changning County?
Seeing Yang Chen about to leave, Ma Shenghe wasn’t willing to give up on this great opportunity to make a name for himself. He pointed at Yang Chen and yelled, “Yang Chen, I think you’re just too scared to accept my challenge!”
Yang Chen dug his ears and sneered, “Ma Shenghe, I thought I’d explained it clearly enough. If it were anyone else, as long as their mind is sound, they could understand my words, but it seems your intelligence is a bit lacking.”
“You’re insulting me!” Ma Shenghe abruptly realized.
Yang Chen’s expression turned cold. “Insulting you? Sorry, I never intended to insult you. It’s just that your intelligence forced me to say such words. You said I didn’t accept your challenge, well, I gave you the opportunity. I let you challenge the twentieth floor of the tower, but you didn’t take it. Why should I accept your challenge?”
As he spoke, Yang Chen had his hands behind his back, “How come you think any random person who comes along can challenge me? There are so many people who want to challenge me, should I accept them all? Sorry, you might be idle, but I’m very busy!”
