Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 976 - The Undisputed King
Chapter 976 - The Undisputed King
The crowd took their seats, and the tense atmosphere that had nearly escalated into drawn weapons slowly eased.
However, many gazes from the arena shifted toward them, flickering with intrigue.
The crowd had also heard rumors about the Holy Spirit Ancient Nation’s internal struggle for imperial power.
With the sovereign gravely ill and his faction weak, they were being suppressed on all fronts. Otherwise, as the princess, Zhuge Mingyue would never have suffered such humiliation at the hands of mere soldiers.
Now, everyone knew that Prince Jing had given birth to a good son in Zhuge Yan. Backed by the Sun Moon Divine Sect, their influence had swelled dramatically, seizing control of the court. If nothing unexpected occurred, Prince Jing would most likely ascend as the next sovereign.
Because of this, many had already pledged their allegiance to the Prince Jing Mansion’s side. As his son, Zhuge Yan was basking in success, living an enviable life of power and prestige.
Unfortunately, the scheme Zhuge Yan had cooked up with much difficulty to slap Zhuge Mingyue’s face failed to take effect. On the contrary, Chen Fan and the others had turned the tables on him.
If it had been in the past, he might have swallowed his anger, even if it meant grinding his teeth to dust.
But now? He would not.
The crowd was waiting to see how Zhuge Yan would retaliate.
“This guy is pretty impressive. He is in the second-level Manifestation realm, but his combat strength is quite terrifying.” Zhuge Mingyue gazed at the hundred-victory battle platform, where an expert radiating a golden glow stood tall.
“Of course, he’s impressive. He cultivates an art that gives him an indestructible golden-bodied with superb defense. When he attacks, runic light fills the sky and bursts forth with terrifying killing power.” Zhuge Yan chuckled faintly, “This person still can’t find a match on the hundred-victory battle platform today.”
The crowd felt surprised after hearing Zhuge Yan’s explanation. It seemed like he was rather familiar with that fighter.
“Hoho, he has already joined our Prince Jing Mansion.” Someone at Zhuge Yan’s side said indifferently, “Talents from the True Martial Academy, this battle is over. Does anyone want to try?”
“No need for that. He will lose this battle,” Chen Fan said calmly.
Contempt flashed across Zhuge Yan’s face. He was well aware of the fighter’s strength. How could he lose?
On the battle platform, the golden-bodied youth was crushing a black-robed youth with a rather skinny figure, forcing him to flee in all directions.
That black-robed youth gave others an extremely icy feeling. A glance at him would make others feel a chill, even though his aura said that he was only in the first-level Manifestation realm.
“He isn't weak, but it’s a pity that he’s only in the first-level Manifestation realm. His loss is certain,” said an expert from the Sun Moon Divine Sect.
“I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed,” Chen Fan replied coldly.
On the battle platform, the golden-bodied youth unleashed a golden brilliance that filled the sky. Behind him, the silhouette of an indestructible golden figure loomed, exuding an overwhelming aura. When he attacked, the palm force was overwhelming, as if it would shatter heaven and earth with a smash. It was extremely tyrannical.
The black-robed youth avoided a direct clash, weaving between void and reality with nimble steps. Wisps of bloody light flashed, filling the battle platform.
The golden-bodied youth’s attacks grew increasingly berserk, determined to crush his opponent with overwhelming strength.
When he struck with both palms, golden runes morphed into massive seals, ready to annihilate everything in front.
The storm of attacks forced the black-robed youth to retreat and dodge continuously—yet occasional shockwaves struck him, making him cough up blood.
“The disciples of the True Martial Academy must be blind. This battle isn’t even close,” mocked the Sun Moon Divine Sect’s expert, glancing at Chen Fan.
“This duel is indeed not on the same level. It’s about to end soon.”
Chen Fan’s voice was as calm as ever, making that expert laugh coldly.
“Still twisting words? Shouldn’t you slap yourself when this is over?”
Chen Fan looked at the other party and spat out a single word, “Idiot.”
“You...”
Even with all his patience, the expert couldn’t endure Chen Fan’s repeated provocations.
The black-robed youth was clearly doomed, yet Chen Fan kept distorting reality—making him itch to beat him on the spot.
“If it wasn’t for the saintess’ presence, someone as ignorant as you would’ve died countless times already,” said the expert, flashing with killing intent.
“I heard that the Sun Moon Divine Sect is also one of the nine overlord class forces. Seeing them today, I didn’t expect them to be full of idiots. Honestly, I’m ashamed to be mentioned in the same breath as you,” Chen Fan said calmly, not the least bit angry.
His words nearly drove that person mad.
“Once this battle ends, I’m slapping you across the face.” Seeing Chen Fan insult their sect without restraint, one of their experts openly declared his intent to retaliate. After all, how could he let someone mock the Sun Moon Divine Sect so brazenly?
Chen Fan threw a glance at that expert before focusing on the battle platform again.
The golden-bodied youth’s attacks became increasingly fiercer—the battle seemed moments from ending. The Sun Moon Divine Sect’s members smirked in anticipation.
Rumble!
The sounds of his fierce attacks shook the battle platform. The golden-bodied youth was about to take the black-robed youth’s life.
But at that instant, an eerie darkness flickered in the black-robed youth’s eyes. No one noticed. A heartbeat later, the golden-bodied youth’s attack froze mid-air. His face was drained of color.
Thump.

The black-robed youth stepped forth, and his palm struck the golden-bodied youth.
In an instant, the golden-bodied youth’s body withered, his widened eyes filled with shock—then he collapsed, dead on the spot.
“This is...”
The crowd was all shocked. The black-robed youth had skipped a rank and killed the golden-bodied youth.
The faces of the Sun Moon Divine Sect members turned ashen.
The ending of this battle made them feel uncomfortable, and their faces grew hotter. Their earlier words echoed mockingly in their minds. How ironic.
“Hahahaha, this face slapping feels so good. Weren’t you hooting earlier? Why have you gone quiet?” Zhu Yue laughed out loud.
The Sun Moon Divine Sect’s experts were having a hard time holding it in. It was simply an utter humiliation.
“Why bother with a bunch of idiots, Senior Brother? You’ll just be lowering yourself.”
Chen Fan did not spare a glance at the people from the Sun Moon Divine Sect. He only advised Zhu Yue, but his words were even more piercing when they fell into the Sun Moon Divine Sect’s experts’ ears.
A youth in the fifth-level Manifestation realm from the Sun Moon Divine Sect said icily, “Junior Brother Zhuge, although they’re your guests, they’re being aggressive and insulting us. If we tolerate this, then what can we not tolerate? If our sect still doesn’t make a stand, won't everyone laugh at us till their teeth fall off?”
“How ridiculous. You were so full of yourselves and even said you would slap my junior brother’s face after this battle. You ended up being the ones getting slapped, yet you’re accusing us? I’ve learned much about the Sun Moon Divine Sect’s skills today. You truly are the undisputed king of the Tianwu Continent... at twisting words,” Zhu Yue mocked them once more.
