Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 706 - Evening Star Golden Storm

Chapter 706 - Evening Star Golden Storm

The crowd was astonished.

Qin Wang, Hong Jun, the First Dragon Lord, and the others were the peerless geniuses of this generation—prides of heaven who stood at the peak of an era, blessed with great fortune and opportunities.

Entering the academy was like latent dragons diving into the sea, promising limitless future achievements.

They had come here with numerous experts ranging from eighth-level Divine Nascent to the half-step Heavenly Star realms to do one thing: kill Chen Fan.

Astonishingly, they didn’t seem to be winning. Chen Fan was resisting them with his lonesome strength.

Countless gazes landed on Chen Fan.

It was no surprise that Peerless Peak had chosen him as a disciple—he was far more fearsome than Qin Wang and the others. In a one-on-one fight, who among them could possibly defeat him?

Chen Fan, an unmatched talent in his generation, stood tall at the center of the encirclement. Even in the face of such a situation, his fighting spirit was still as high as ever, standing tall and straight.

Hong Jun, Ye Wushuang, and Liu Zong’s faces darkened.

They had each attacked him earlier, only to be countered effortlessly, leaving them inwardly shocked.

Before even arriving at the True Martial Academy, Chen Fan had already made a name for himself by scaring off Yuan Powang, a half-step Heavenly Star realm powerhouse.

They had all heard that tale. Back then, they had been at the ninth-level Divine Nascent realm. So, Yuan Powang was not that big of a threat to them either.

Thus, they also did not worry about Chen Fan too much.

However, after entering the True Martial Academy, Chen Fan became a disciple of the Peerless Peak, leaving them feeling infuriated.

They believed that they were more outstanding and powerful than Chen Fan. So, why did the Peerless Peak take in Chen Fan?

Moreover, they didn’t even want to join the Peerless Peak, but the peak’s actions made it clear: Chen Fan was the most outstanding of this batch, and the others weren’t deemed worthy.

For these naturally arrogant talents, that was unbearable.

In their opinion, the Peerless Peak should have at least tried to rope them in, even if they intended to refuse. Ignoring them outright was an insult.

As a result, Chen Fan became their target—not out of personal grievance, but to prove they were stronger, to show that Peerless Peak had made the wrong choice.

Chen Fan’s sharp gaze swept over, and his voice resounded through the heavens. "You think killing me will prove your superiority? Are you even worthy?"

The First Dragon Lord’s eyes were incomparably gloomy.

Immediately, Qin Wang and the others turned into streams of light, tearing through the atmosphere in furious pursuit of Chen Fan.

On the distant mountaintop, Huo Ling’er was momentarily stunned to see Chen Fan flee.

“He’s escaping!”

Judging by Chen Fan’s aura earlier, she had expected him to fight Qin Wang and the others to the end. It turned out to be a feint.

The crowd below also stood blankly in place, not coming back to their senses yet as they watched their figures disappearing into the horizon.

“This...”

“Chen Fan must have realized he couldn’t match the siege of the six geniuses and was in danger of losing his life, so he feigned an attack to escape.”

“I wonder if he will be able to make it out.”

“......”

Chen Fan was very fast, but Qin Wang and the others were geniuses in the Heavenly Star realm with advanced movement arts. So, they weren’t any slower than him.

“Chen Fan, you won’t escape!”

“Hmph, even if you fled to the ends of the world, I’ll chase you until you’re dead!”

Behind him, the shouts of the First Dragon Lord, the First Fiend, and the others could be heard.

Chen Fan ignored it and flew toward the depths of the Little Demon Realm, flitting ten thousand meters away in the blink of an eye.

Woo, woo, woo. Woo, woo, woo...

Suddenly, whistling noises filled the air, and he spotted a golden hue in the distance. However, this gold radiated an unusually dangerous aura—it was a storm.

“That is... an Evening Star Golden Storm!” [1]

Chen Fan was also dumbfounded when he saw the golden storm of immeasurable width.

The Evening Star Golden Storm ahead was like a golden wall, whistling toward him. No matter which direction he went, he couldn't avoid it.

It was too terrifying. It seemed to envelop the entire Little Demon Realm.

With pursuers behind him and the storm blocking his path, Chen Fan found himself in a desperate situation.
