Chapter 764 - Set Sights on Chen Fan

The incomparably huge central plaza was the true stage of this True Martial Assembly, exuding a solemn, desolate, and blood-stirring aura.

Here, numerous experts would compete.

Above the plaza floated countless thrones, large and small, as numerous as grains of sand.

Chen Fan’s group found Peerless Peak’s designated seats and settled in, waiting for the assembly to begin.

Swish, swish, swish. Swish, swish, swish...

Millions of wind-breaking noises could be heard.

As the participants arrived in droves, countless true primeval techniques, rainbows, and treasures covered heaven and earth, interweaving in the air.

The True Martial Academy, with its nine main peaks and over a hundred weaker peaks, had over a million disciples. Though not all came to participate, more than half from each peak filled the assembly grounds.

Hundreds of thousands of people gathered in the central plaza majestically. Their auras erupted, shaking the sky. All kinds of auras clashed in the air, causing sparks to fly everywhere.

The participants sat on their respective thrones, their eyes flickering with brilliant light, surging with fighting spirit, ready to make a splash at the assembly and make their names known across the seas.

“

Hmm

?”

Suddenly, Chen Fan felt numerous cold gazes fixed on him. Glancing around, he quickly noticed several faces radiating hostility his way.

The hall masters of major peaks that had suffered heavy losses in the Little Demon Realm—like the Law Enforcement Hall, Heavenly Bastion Peak, Unsheathed Peak, and Stargazer Peak—fixed icy, hostile gazes on Chen Fan, barely concealing their killing intent.

This assembly wasn’t limited to rookies; it included all disciples of the True Martial Academy, regardless of when they were recruited.

Every disciple here was an outstanding genius, and those with several centuries of cultivation boasted profound strength. They were as strong as—if not stronger than—those old-timers with years of experience.

Jian Qi sat next to Chen Fan. He also felt the icy gazes and said with a smile, “Junior Brother, it seems our peak has already been marked as a target.”

“Senior Brother, are we allowed to kill?” Chen Fan asked calmly.

Jian Qi paused, then chuckled. “No, but accidents happen. Punches and kicks are blind or something. As long as it doesn’t seem intentional, no one will interfere.”

Chen Fan nodded and said, “Let’s hope they know better. If not...”

An icy glint flashed in Jian Qi’s eyes as he returned the nod with a faint smile.

Across the plaza, the Law Enforcement Hall disciples watched, their eyes fixed on him.

A green-robed man was looking at Peerless Peak disciples. Killing intent flashed in his eyes as he said, “If you guys encounter those freaks, no need to hold back. Weapons have no eyes. If you kill them, then so be it.”

This green-robed man was Zhu Wen, the chief disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Evidently, Zhu Wen wasn’t a fan of all the losses they had suffered thanks to Peerless Peak and was planning to kill their disciples.

Accidents were common in competitions, so he was sure even Huang Wuji could not say a thing about it.

Zhao Wuji had a fair complexion and handsome appearance, but he exuded a hint of wickedness. With a wicked smile, he said, “Hehe, rest assured, Senior Brother Zhu!”

“Senior Brother Zhu, we would have done just that anyway!”

“That’s right. The Peerless Peak dared to kill our disciples in public and insult our prestige. This True Martial Assembly is the perfect time for them to pay!”

Killing intent radiated from several eighth and ninth-level Heavenly Star realm disciples, their eagerness to engage palpable.

The Heavenly Bastion Peak’s chief disciple, Chu Chunqiu, said indifferently, “Xiao Yi, with your peak Heavenly Star realm cultivation, few can match you in this assembly. Although Chen Fan and Jian Qi possess monstrous talent and can fight above their level, their foundation is still shallow. They should be no match for you. If you encounter them, just slaughter them in passing to avenge our losses in the Little Demon Realm.”

Xiao Yi nodded respectfully and answered, “Yes, Senior Brother Chu.”

The Stargazer Peak’s chief disciple, Ye Que, said coldly, “Jiang Chi, don’t hold back against the Peerless Peak disciples if you cross paths with them.”

“I shall obey Senior Brother Ye’s order.” Jiang Chi’s eyes were like stars, exuding an extraordinary bearing.

As tensions mounted, halls with grievances against Peerless Peak were united in their resolve to target Chen Fan and Jian Qi.

......

Countless experts were discussing among themselves.

The untamed gazes of the top geniuses nurtured by the other superpowers swept across their surroundings, sizing up the True Martial Academy disciples.

At the Demon Advocate Sect’s gathering, one disciple said to a figure in long black robes emanating an overwhelming demonic presence, “Look over there, Senior Brother Qin. That guy is Chen Fan, the one causing a stir across the eastern continent.”

Although the Demon Advocate Sect could not compare to the True Martial Academy, it could still be called a behemoth.

It was a demonic path sect that specialized in cultivating demonic arts. Their sect master, Cao Kong, was an authority on the demonic path in the eastern continent, being in the Invincible Legendary realm.

Qin Cang’s demonic eyes focused on Chen Fan. He nodded and said, “They say the Peerless Peak is unrivaled, attracting only exceptional talents. I hope Chen Fan doesn’t disappoint me.”

His companion quickly chimed in, eager to flatter, “Chen Fan is also a genius, but you are a true genius, Senior Brother Qin. He wouldn’t last ten moves against you.”

At the Myriad Transformation Fairy Palace, which mirrored Lustrous Peak with its exclusively female cultivators, a group of stunning beauties chatted animatedly, drawing the attention of many.

“Senior Sister Xia, this Chen Fan looks pretty handsome.”

Their palace master, Fairy Myriad Transformation, was a stunning beauty on par with the Lustrous Peak’s peak master, Feng Yaoguang. She was also terrifyingly powerful, her strength inferior to no men.

Xia Qingyuan, her neck as elegant as a swan and her beauty breathtaking, replied coolly, “What does a pretty face matter? If he lacks strength, he’ll break with a single poke, no matter how handsome he is.”

“That’s true.

Heehee

.”

“Senior Brother Li...”

“Senior Brother Bai Ze...”

Meanwhile, the Suspended Sovereign Palace Hall and Nirvana Palace also cast sharp glances toward the Peerless Peak area, their eyes glinting with keen interest.

Now that Chen Fan had risen to fame in the eastern continent, the rumor mill had labeled him as the number one figure of the younger generation.

However, these young talents would naturally not share the same sentiment.

Thus, they were all looking forward to fighting Chen Fan to prove that they were the number one figure of the younger generation.

The brighter the spotlight on Chen Fan and the greater his strength, the better they could demonstrate their own power by trampling him underfoot.

They had all set their sights on Chen Fan!
