C168 I Told You to Get Lost!(4)

He appeared!

There was no thunderous roar.

The only sound was akin to the clashing of metals.

In the next moment, the noise of something shattering echoed continuously.

Everyone was transfixed by the image before them.

They were stunned, once again immobilized by the sight of that young figure.

In less than a few hours, they had been shaken to their core twice by the presence of this figure.

Yet, this time, their astonishment was even more profound.

Was Chu Yi tall?

Undoubtedly, as Chu Yi stood well over 1.8 meters.

Among humans, such a stature was quite respectable.

But when compared to the Demonic Beasts and everything else around him, Chu Yi seemed incredibly small.

However, at that moment, in the eyes of all who beheld him, Chu Yi loomed like a colossal giant, the only one of his kind between heaven and earth.

The entire internet fell silent.

Maybe these people were at a loss for words, or perhaps some were still reeling from the shock.

After all, the previous scene had utterly surpassed their comprehension!

The techniques employed by the three geniuses, weren't they supposed to be powerful as a testament to their foundational strength?

It was inconceivable that they wouldn't be.

This was their foundational power, meant to preserve life in dire moments. If it weren't formidable, it would be laughable.

Yet, in that moment, even such a fearsome and potent foundation...

In an instant, everyone witnessed it.

They saw Chu Yi's abrupt emergence.

They saw him effortlessly raise his arm.

They saw Chu Yi unleash a formidable punch!

They saw so much, yet it was precisely because they witnessed it firsthand that they harbored doubts.

What they saw completely subverted their knowledge and shattered their imaginations!

"With a single punch, all is obliterated!"

"What good is foundational power then!"

"Even against such a punch, it's impossible to avoid a fate of disintegration!"

"This Chu Yi, this Chu Yi..."

Countless onlookers were astounded.

They knew Chu Yi was formidable, a true embodiment of Gold.

They were aware of Chu Yi's might when he battled the fearsome Demonic Beast. Though not witnessed firsthand, the fact that Chu Yi vanquished the beast that had halted even the Guardians, without sustaining significant harm, was enough to affirm the terror and power of Chu Yi.

Despite Chu Yi's strength, it hadn't truly resonated with them until now. When Chu Yi faced human adversaries, particularly three geniuses of his own age or slightly older, the impact was undeniable. Was it shocking? Absolutely. There had been nothing more startling than this moment.

The three prodigies, despite their talents, could not hold a candle to Chu Yi. Everyone was aware of that. Yet, these were the foundations of the three geniuses—their ultimate lifesaving strategies. How could they not be formidable? But in Chu Yi's presence, their so-called strength shattered effortlessly, dissipating in mere moments without inflicting any significant damage on him. Through this stark contrast, everyone finally grasped the extent of Chu Yi's power.

"He is the favored son of the heavens!"

"He is a sovereign of youth in this era!"

Many began to realize why the Ah Lang website had previously declared Chu Yi the top scholar of the national examination. Initially, many were skeptical, dismissing the website's claims as a joke, especially since the martial examination was expected to unveil a host of exceptional talents. How could Chu Yi, of all people, claim the title of national martial examination champion?

But now, they understood...

Gazing at the person cradled in his arms, Chu Yi's eyes softened with tenderness. "Silly, rest now," he murmured. "Watch me as I seek your vengeance..." In her moment of utter despair, Chu Yi had come to her rescue, just as he had once shielded a young and vulnerable Lee Zi, providing a sanctuary for her troubled spirit.

Lee Zi remained silent, her gaze fixed on Chu Yi with a gentle smile. Then, tears began to cascade down her face. "Alright..." Chu Yi's smile radiated indulgence as he carried Lee Zi aside and laid her down with the utmost care, as if she were the world's most precious treasure.

"Just wait a little while," he assured her. "I'll return shortly..." With those words, Chu Yi turned away, his smile vanishing to reveal a visage of unyielding coldness. A fearsome turbulence enveloped him, and even through the screen, the chill was palpable, as if it could freeze the very soul.

"We admit defeat!"

The three prodigies exclaimed without a moment's hesitation.

They were no fools.

The strength Chu Yi had demonstrated completely shattered their perceptions.

They had previously heard of Chu Yi and, although they knew they probably couldn't match him, they never imagined the gap between them would be so vast!

Feeling Chu Yi's chilling and terrifying intent to kill, the three geniuses quickly conceded.

They realized that Chu Yi was intent on killing them!

So, the best course of action was to concede swiftly.

Though conceding meant they would lose their right to continue in the assessment, at least they could save their lives!

So, they conceded.

Yet, there was no trace of regret or anger on Chu Yi's face.

Instead, it was filled with—

A smile!

Yes, Chu Yi's face bore an indescribable, eerily strange smile!

As his footsteps lightly touched down, the ground itself began to quake.

Numerous people were lifted into the air, swirling in a dance around Chu Yi's form.

Witnessing this, countless onlookers' eyes bulged.

What kind of technique was this?

It was as if a scene from a movie had come to life!

But this was reality!

"That's Chu Yi's aura!"

"It's a terrifying presence that's stirring everything around him!"

"But, but..."

"Isn't such a fearsome aura something that only a Diamond Level being should be able to wield?"

A Diamond Level existence...

Speechless, no one could utter a word.

"Student, please, don't act rashly."

"They've already forfeited the assessment. If you kill them now, you'll be breaking the rules!"

Upon hearing this, the three geniuses smirked mockingly at Chu Yi.

They might not be able to defeat Chu Yi, but they believed that with the Guardian's intervention, Chu Yi couldn't touch them!

Moreover, if Chu Yi were to strike regardless, it would mean challenging the Guardian directly!

Though the Guardian surely wouldn't kill Chu Yi, he would certainly ensure Chu Yi faced some repercussions.

They were quite eager to witness such a scene...

However—

"Scram."

Everyone froze, then stared at Chu Yi in disbelief.

The Guardian's face turned a shade of red, incredulous at what he was hearing.

"Are you telling me to scram?!"

Chu Yi's smile remained as radiant and unsettling as before.

Before countless witnesses, he gently began to speak.

"That's right, I want you now—"

"Get lost!"
