1164 Defeated in a Single Strike, the Might of the Cloud Split

Chu Hongcai, who had been forced into a corner, finally recalled the spear technique Chu Yunfan had taught him—the Cloud Split.

He had no other choice. In his original plan, this was just a trump card and he might not use it. However, he had no other choice now.

Following Chu Hongcai's shout, the spear in his hand suddenly stabbed out. The attack was extremely terrifying, and the terrifying move that Chu Yunfan had imprinted in his mind immediately boiled, and the spear intent spread in all directions.

In that instant, everyone present seemed to see that after this move was launched, the entire sky became cloudless. It was only a spear attack, but it was actually able to disperse the clouds for miles around.

Of course, this was just an illusion conjured by the spear intent and was not real. Even so, the power of this attack was shocking enough.

Almost in an instant, the spear intent had already crushed Chu Yongyan's dual saber intent. It was only a single attack, but it was already heading straight for Chu Yongyan.

Bam!

The spear pierced Chu Yongyan's chest. He groaned and was sent flying. His clothes were completely torn, revealing his inner armor. However, his inner armor had also been destroyed by the spear.

In an instant, the inner armor cracked open, and Chu Yongyan was sent flying out of the ring.

There was a deathly silence. Everyone looked at Chu Hongcai, who was panting heavily as if he had used all his strength. They were all completely dumbfounded.

'How?!'

This word appeared in everyone's mind. They were completely dumbfounded. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed such a ridiculous thing.

Some of the experts present could see that Chu Yongyan had already entered the eighth Innate Stage, while Chu Hongcai was at most at the sixth stage. The difference in strength between the two sides was clear.

As long as Chu Yongyan was careful, it was only a matter of time before he won.

Chu Yongyan didn't let his guard down and forced Chu Hongcai into a corner.

However, the key was Chu Hongcai's fatal spear attack. The terrifying power of the attack was clear for everyone to see. Just looking at Chu Yongyan's inner armor that was directly blown apart, one could understand.

This kind of inner armor was extremely strong. Unless it was attacked by a Divine, it would be very difficult to break this kind of inner armor.

Since these people were not the true sons of Marquis Zhongxin, even if they were rich and powerful in the branch families, it was not easy to get such an inner armor.

However, the inner armor couldn't even block a single spear strike from Chu Hongcai. Many people felt their scalps go numb. If it wasn't for the inner armor blocking most of the power at the critical moment, Chu Yongyan would've been pierced through.

They finally understood why Chu Yunfan said he would teach Chu Hongcai one move before the battle. It was only one move, and Chu Yunfan was confident that Chu Hongcai would win against Chu Yongyan.

Just this move, except for Chu Xiujie, who dared to say that they could resist it? If the whole set was used, how powerful would it be?

However, with Chu Hongcai's strength, he probably couldn't display a complete set of spear techniques. That wasn't realistic, but it was enough. With only one move, he was able to defeat an expert two levels higher than him. If this kind of martial art wasn't a lost art, what kind was it?

But many people couldn't understand how Chu Yunfan's simple stab contained such terrifying power. They had this bit of insight. If a casual stab could have such power, they could all be hung. There must be some other profound mystery, but they could not see the profound mystery.

It was impossible for any spear technique to be just a simple spear technique. If one only knew spear techniques and did not know how to circulate one's qi or the profoundness of spear intent, then it would all be useless.

But how did Chu Yunfan teach Chu Hongcai so quickly?

It was probably impossible to rely on that one moment alone.

They thought for a moment that it might be the Enlightenment Method, but it was immediately swept out of their minds. That method required the person to be a top master, at least a master in the Core Stage. In addition, it would also harm the body.

It was impossible for a Core to sacrifice himself using an Enlightenment just for a simple duel. The only reasonable explanation was that Chu Yunfan must have taught Chu Hongcai in advance so that he could learn it and have such great power.

Previously, they had laughed at Chu Yunfan's spear attack as a joke, but now it seemed that it was just a feint. He must have taught Chu Hongcai the real technique before this.

Chu Xiujie's face was even uglier. They had all thought that Chu Yongyan had schemed against Chu Hongcai. After all, Chu Yongyan's strength was far superior to Chu Hongcai's, but he didn't say it out loud, waiting to trick Chu Hongcai.

Who would have thought that it was Chu Hongcai who had set Chu Yongyan up in the end?

Chu Hongcai had clearly been prepared, but he had acted as if he had no chance of winning and deceived all of them.

Thinking of this, Chu Xiujie felt a burning sensation on his face. It was the result of someone giving him a tight slap. He boasted that he had the pearl of wisdom in his hands, but in the end, he was fooled by Chu Yunfan and Chu Hongcai.

The anger in Chu Xiujie's heart was constantly burning, but he couldn't act out. In the morning, Chu Yunfan's kick crippled Chu Yanghui because Chu Yanghui was the first to attack. Many of the Chu family's servants saw it, so he couldn't hide it, and he couldn't act out.

He had not yet reached the point where he could cover the sky with one hand in Marquis Zhongxin's household. He still had his biggest competitor, Chu Haoyu, who was eyeing his position covetously, so he could only swallow his anger.

He originally wanted to use this battle to ruthlessly teach Chu Yunfan and Chu Hongcai a lesson, but he had miscalculated.

Now, they were in the ring. According to the rules, victory and defeat were both self-inflicted. As long as they were in the ring, it was equivalent to signing a life-and-death contract.

He originally wanted to use this point to make Chu Hongcai loosen his bones, but now he was being used to loosen Chu Yongyan's bones.

The feeling of being slapped in the face twice made him feel like a volcano that was about to erupt.

After imagining Chu Yunfan's scheme, he looked at Chu Yunfan coldly and said, "Well done, Chu Yunfan. You're good. You'll regret this one day."

He looked at Chu Yunfan with a vicious expression. As long as he became the son of Marquis Zhongxin in the future, he would make Chu Yunfan suffer. He would make him beg for death.
