Urban Super Medical Sage-Chapter 677 - 671: Reminder (2 updates)

"Three!" Su Chen didn’t argue with Xuu Guan; instead, he silently lowered one finger.

Xuu Guan’s eyes sharply paused, realizing he had underestimated Su Chen’s arrogance—he was too overbearing!

"Blustering with borrowed authority? I refuse to believe you’re as formidable as the rumors say, nothing but an empty reputation! You’re at the Fourth Level of the Heavenly Mandate Realm! I am at the Fifth Level of the Creation Realm! Should I be afraid of you?" Xuu Guan thought viciously to himself, his gaze becoming piercing.

"Two!" Su Chen retracted another finger.

Inside the Tianhe Hall, more and more Martial Cultivators were becoming visibly excited.

The good show was about to begin!

And right from the start, it would be a tremendous performance.

One was the well-known rising star, Su Chen, surrounded by many rumors and favored by the Seventh Princess.

The other was recognized as the strongest of the younger generation in the Scarlet Prefecture, at the Fifth Level of the Creation Realm.

What would be the outcome of this collision?

No one could say for sure.

"One!" Then, Su Chen put down the last finger and suddenly, he made a move!!!

Without any hesitation, delay, idle talk, or fluctuation of aura...

In an abrupt moment, Su Chen bellowed, his eyes tensing, "Get out!"

Instantly.

Three Powers Transformation.

The terrifying Soul Power, like an arrow shot at the sun, carrying endless blinding light and fierce to the extreme, suddenly surged and shot straight into Xuu Guan’s Soul Sea.

"Ah..." Just as Xuu Guan was about to fight back against Su Chen, about to use his martial skills, and about to deploy his movement technique, he suddenly felt the defensive formation of his Spirit Space being violently torn apart. Not only that, but the Soul Stone suppressing the Spirit Space trembled violently, almost dimming, nearly shattering. Xuu Guan’s soul experienced a grinding pain, and he couldn’t control his own body, consumed by extreme terror and horror. He clutched his head and retreated frantically, all the way out of the Tianhe Hall.

The entire process took but a few breaths.

All the Martial Cultivators inside Tianhe Hall were dumbstruck, stupefied, frozen!

They had imagined many possible scenarios for Su Chen’s fight against Xuu Guan, but they certainly hadn’t anticipated this one.

Could a single shout from Su Chen seriously injure Xuu Guan?

Wasn’t that utterly insane?

Wasn’t that simply inconceivable?

Some guessed that Su Chen must have used a Soul Technique, while many others had no idea how he did it.

But regardless of how he did it, the fact that Su Chen defeated Xuu Guan was undeniable.

With just one move, he had solidly secured himself a spot in the top twenty among the four to five hundred top prodigies that very evening.

And what was even more terrifying upon reflection was that Su Chen was merely at the Sixth Layer of the Heavenly Fate Realm!

Xuu Guan was at the Fifth Level of the Creation Realm!

There was a vast gap of eight or nine Minor Realms!!!

Rumors had it that Su Chen could fight across more than ten Minor Realms. It seemed... it seemed to really be no falsehood.

"Princess, it seems I have still underestimated Su Chen!" Elder Huo expressed with some admiration, "He’s a monster, what exactly is the limit of his strength?"

She had witnessed Su Chen’s battles against Xin Sha, Gao Chi, Xiaao Yi, and just now against Xuu Guan.

Although his opponents were increasingly powerful, Su Chen, on the contrary, seemed to handle them with even greater ease.

This was a complete anomaly.

There could only be one explanation: Su Chen’s strength was immensely formidable. In all three battles, he hadn’t used his full strength at all—far from it.

"Twenty-three years old..." Elder Huo sighed again, "Even in the Ancient Capital City of the Nan’e Ancient Kingdom, that would be considered top tier."

The Seventh Princess was also pleasantly surprised; Su Chen had given her too many surprises already, yet it seemed he had still not reached his limit.

At the same moment.

Su Chen turned slightly.

Instantly.

Gurgle!

Inside the Tianhe Hall, some Martial Cultivators had already deeply swallowed their saliva, feeling somewhat oppressed for no apparent reason.

Among them were Qi En, Sun Ji, and others.

A moment later.

Su Chen turned to face Qi En, Sun Ji, and the rest, giving them a deep look but without saying anything or making any moves.

Even though Su Chen said nothing and made no moves, Qi En and Sun Ji still felt a profound chill.

Before long.

The Third Prince Chu Hong, holding a glass of wine, walked towards Su Chen.

"Brother Su, it’s only been two or three months since we parted in Great Cang City, and yet your strength has undergone an earth-shattering transformation!" Chu Hong said with a smile.

"You don’t seem to be faring well," Su Chen frowned for a moment, then said, a hint of curiosity in his heart. Chu Hong today seemed weaker than the Chu Hong he met back in Great Cang City.

Back then, in Great Cang City, Su Chen couldn’t see through Chu Hong’s true strength and Realm.

Now, however, he could see through it.

Chu Hong was at the Peak of the Sixth Level of the Creation Realm.

"Recently, I was cultivating a martial skill, but because I was too eager for quick success, I showed some signs of deviation," Chu Hong sighed and said.

The Third Prince Chu Hong was the strongest in talent for martial cultivation and strength among all the emperor’s sons and princesses, much stronger than the Sixth Prince.

This martial prowess was also the sole reason the Third Prince could form a tripartite stand-off with the Second Prince and the First Prince.

Therefore, Chu Hong valued his strength highly.

And precisely because he valued it so highly, because he desired to become stronger, his overzealous cultivation led to signs of deviation, resulting in a slight decrease in his strength.

"My Seventh Sister thinks quite highly of you!" Chu Hong quickly changed the subject, smiling as he spoke.

Su Chen felt a bit embarrassed.

"However, Su Chen, I do feel sorry for you," Chu Hong’s face suddenly grew solemn, "It’s not a good thing that my Seventh Sister takes an interest in you."

"Why is that?" Su Chen raised an eyebrow.

"My Seventh Sister has a special status. The man she takes an interest in, if he cannot stand above all his contemporaries, if he is not the most outstanding one, will definitely face obstacles to his romantic pursuits," Chu Hong said in a lowered voice.

Su Chen nodded, understanding that Chu Hong was kindly warning him.

"By the way, I have another piece of advice for you. If you’re not fully determined to face what’s coming head-on, if you’re not resolved to compete, then you might want to keep a lower profile during the final third of tonight’s birthday celebration," Chu Hong’s voice was even lower, heavy with dread.

"The final third of the celebration?" Su Chen was a bit puzzled.

"Su Chen, don’t think that all these people who’ve arrived now are here just to congratulate my Seventh Sister on her birthday. In fact, what’s happening now is just the first third, merely an appetizer!" Chu Hong said somberly.

"Thank you for the warning," Su Chen nodded, roughly understanding what the Third Prince Chu Hong meant—that the true essence of the Tianhe Hall at present was just the weakest batch, with stronger individuals still to come, and even stronger ones following them.

However, Su Chen was not afraid, nor would he change his original intention. He had no desire to stand out, but the gift he planned to give the Seventh Princess was definitely going to attract attention. He had no doubt about that. But would he refrain from giving the gift, or choose a lesser gift just because of a few words from Chu Hong? Clearly, he would not. Pursuing a clear Martial Dao Heart was the most stable foundation on Su Chen’s path of martial arts cultivation.
