Overriding the Heaven

"Don't think too much into it, we know that this isn't what you mean." Su Jianyuan said with a smile.    

Li Xiu didn't say much. At this moment, he just nodded his head towards Liu Tie, but his intention was the same as Su Jianyuan.    

When the White Crane explained the contents of the mission, Chu Yan had a feeling that someone was trying to instigate his relationship with Li Xiu and Su Jianyuan.    

Normally, he did not have a close relationship with Li Xiu and Su Jianyuan, but the last time Spirit Apostle Ranking Competition, they helped him a lot in front of all the disciples, even giving him heavenly treasures to help him improve his strength.    

And the content of the mission now was to let Chu Yan take advantage of the two of them.    

If word of this got out, it would eventually give the impression that Chu Yan was going to repay the debt with kindness.    

That was what Chu Yan was worried about.    

Although he didn't really care about the opinions of others, Chu Yan didn't want Li Xiu and Su Jianyuan to misunderstand him.    

After all, he had accepted their kindness.    

At this moment, Li Xiu and Su Jianyuan's expressions were free and at ease. It was true that they did not misunderstand Chu Yan because of this matter. This made Chu Yan feel a lot more at ease.    

"Although we're all cultivators, there are still a lot of things that happen when we have time to fight for power and profit. We …" Su Jianyuan leaned close to Chu Yan and said in a low voice, "It might have become someone's chess piece. But don't worry, ordinary disciples don't know about this, but we've met this kind of thing more than once."    

Chu Yan raised his head and looked at Su Jianyuan. He saw Su Jianyuan glance at the others.    

Other than Li Xiu and Feng Xin, there was also Jiang Panmeng.    

Chu Yan also noticed that the disciples pointed out by Su Jianyuan had a normal expression on their faces as if they were used to it.    

"It's enough as long as we have a good personal relationship. I won't take any of this to heart." Su Jianyuan patted Chu Yan on the shoulder, "And you have to think like this. If you want to compete for the rankings, then normally, besides the ranking reward, there's nothing else from the 10th to the 1st place." And now, if you defeat me and Li Xiu, in addition to the rewards for the rankings, you can also obtain the rewards for the missions. It would be simply earning something, why wouldn't you be happy?    

Su Jianyuan laughed happily, "Actually, I have met with such a thing in the past with Brother Li and others, but it was all in private. I have never announced it in front of so many people like today."    

Saying this, Su Jianyuan winked at Chu Yan, "You have three months, when do you plan to challenge us?"    

"Since Senior Brother doesn't mind, I want to challenge Senior Brother Su today." Chu Yan laughed.    

"En, not bad, not bad, challenging me today …" What? Today? "Now?" Su Jianyuan reacted and immediately exclaimed.    

When the others heard Chu Yan's words, they all looked over with surprised expressions.    

It was not wrong that Chu Yan had reached the peak of the Pulse Condensation realm and had also made it into the top ten. However, Su Jianyuan was at the perfection of the Pulse Condensation realm and had never fallen out of the top five.    

He and Li Xiu could be said to be the strongest two among the apprentices at the moment.    

Chu Yan actually challenged Su Jianyuan today.    

One must know, not long ago, the White Crane had just finished speaking. Chu Yan only had one chance to challenge the two of them.    

If he failed the first time, then he wouldn't receive any rewards.    

"Are you sure?" Su Jianyuan looked at Chu Yan with a strange expression, "I swear on my reputation as a cultivator, I will never deliberately let him go."    

"I understand." Chu Yan nodded, "Just like what Brother Su said just now, winning is a huge gain. Even if you lose, you won't lose anything, so today is fine."    

Seeing that Chu Yan did not look like he was joking, Su Jianyuan pondered for a moment and said: "Alright, since you've decided, then come."    

With a swoosh, he pulled out his sword and pointed it at Chu Yan: "Junior Chu, I will not show mercy."    

"To face your opponent with your full strength is to show respect." Chu Yan held the Soul-Sealing Spear, with a fiery gaze in his eyes, he responded in a clear voice.    

On their bodies, the fighting spirit instantly boiled up.    

Su Jianyuan looked at Chu Yan, his eyes slightly squinted, and the corner of his mouth raised into a satisfied smile.    

In Chu Yan's previous ten rounds, he did not use a weapon. No matter who his opponent was, he would smack that opponent off the stage with one palm.    

But now, he took out the Soul-Sealing Spear, this meant that he had to bring out his true strength.    

This competition was no longer just for the top ten of the Spirit Apostle Board. It was also related to Chu Yan's mission.    

Everyone looked at the stage and couldn't help but discuss with one another.    

"Chu Yan actually challenged Su Jianyuan today, isn't that a little too hasty?"    

"Although this mission given to him by the Elders Guild is difficult, after three months of bitter training, he might still have a fifty percent chance of winning. Coming right now is a bit too impatient."    

"I think it's not like Chu Yan is a hot-headed person who doesn't think about anything as he's so anxious to challenge Su Jianyuan."    

"You want Su Jianyuan to go easy? "Impossible."    

"Yeah, if this competition goes on, it might leave a shadow in your heart, so much so that in the future, you can advance and become an inner demon. With Su Jianyuan's knowledge, he definitely won't let this kind of self-destructive thing happen to you."    

"What exactly is Chu Yan thinking?"    

"I don't understand. Could it be that he really has the strength to challenge someone at the perfect Pulse Condensation realm?"    

"If Su Jianyuan was a rogue cultivator, or a cultivator from a clan, and Chu Yan was a disciple of a sect, he would still have a chance to challenge someone with a higher cultivation level. But right now, the chances of winning are very slim.    

In the entire square, out of the nearly fifteen thousand apprentices, not a single one was optimistic about Chu Yan.    

What he had to face was not an ordinary opponent, but one of the top two apprentices — — Dual Sword Su Jianyuan.    

Fu Rui, who was sitting in the stands, had a trace of worry on her face.    

In her ears, she could hear the discussions of the surrounding people.    

Although she didn't say it, she was still worried about Chu Yan.    

Fu Rui thought for a moment, then lightly tugged on Lin Miaoran's sleeve. "Miss, do you think that idiot Chu Yan will win?"    

"I believe him." Lin Miaoran replied with four words without any hesitation.    

"Then I hope that idiot Chu Yan won't embarrass us. Let's cheer him on." Fu Rui nodded.    

At this moment, only Chu Yan and Su Jianyuan were left in the arena.    

The closest to the audience below were the other eight who had made it into the top ten.    

"Junior Chu challenging Senior Su, this battle is really hard to predict who will win and who will lose." The river bank dream said.    

As the strongest disciples, their views were naturally different from those of the other ordinary disciples.    

They saw deeper and farther.    

Li Xiu, who usually didn't say much, now expressed his opinion again, "Junior Chu has obviously made some progress recently. The fact that you beat Pan Xu without fighting back is a clear proof, and that is something that happened almost two months ago. Whether he can win against Junior Brother Su this time will depend on how long he can force Junior Brother Su to use that move."    

Even though Shen Qing hadn't spoken a word, she had been listening to their conversation the entire time.    

At this moment, when she heard Li Xiu's words, a sharp light flashed across her eyes as she raised her head to look at Su Jianyuan.
