CHAPTER 1689: CHAPTER 1689 SIMULTANEOUS CHALLENGE

At the same time, everyone present came back to their senses one by one.

A lot of people immediately pinched their thighs, and when the sharp pain came from their legs, they realized that what just happened was not a dream, but it was all real.

The Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion, ’Peace Adams,’ killed GullyAshton Chapman in an instant!

"Could it be that Peace Adams has already become a strong Middle Saint Realm late stage fighter?"

Although most of the onlookers didn’t have eyes like DonovanTasker, Castiel Mullins, and Serene Adams, recalling what just happened, they still guessed a few things.

For this reason, their hearts were filled with shock.

"How is that possible?"

Of course, after the shock, many people felt it was highly improbable.

A year ago, he was just at the initial stage of the Middle Saint Realm, and after a year, he advanced to the late stage of Middle Saint Realm?

They really couldn’t understand how Peace Adams cultivated in this year to achieve such exaggerated progress.

However, many of the loose cultivators present had eyes turning bloodshot when looking toward Peace Adams.

As an outstanding figure among the loose cultivators of the younger generation, GullyAshton Chapman held a remarkable position in their eyes, and many even regarded him as the hope of loose cultivators.

In the Sky-scraping Mansion’s region, loose cultivators were a scattered group, but in the past, if something happened, a powerful loose cultivator would step up, gather these scattered groups together, and solve problems.

Of course, those who could lead were all strong among the loose cultivators.

But in recent years, no outstanding strong loose cultivator had emerged in the Sky-scraping Mansion’s region. Therefore, many loose cultivators pinned their hopes on GullyAshton Chapman, believing that in the near future, he could become a strong force among loose cultivators, integrating the scattered loose cultivators into one.

But now, GullyAshton Chapman was dead.

GullyAshton Chapman’s death also meant their dreams were shattered.

Many loose cultivators looked at Wyatt Barnes, but quickly sighed.

Not to mention this loose cultivator, self-claimed ’Eden Lee,’ had been obscure, which was enough to show he wasn’t a person who liked being in the limelight. His previous stance in front of DonovanTasker and Castiel Mullins also undeniably showed his interest in powerful groups.

Therefore, none of them thought this Eden Lee could replace GullyAshton Chapman.

At this thought, a group of loose cultivators looked at Peace Adams as if they were knives. If they could, they’d wish to tear Peace Adams apart.

No matter what, GullyAshton Chapman ultimately lost to Peace Adams, who proved his worth with strength.

He not only wasn’t weaker than GullyAshton Chapman but could also kill him in just an encounter.

If anyone found it hardest to return to their senses after witnessing Peace Adams kill GullyAshton Chapman in one encounter, it would undoubtedly be Monk Flower and Silent Void.

As prominent figures among the younger generation in the Sky-scraping Mansion’s region, Monk Flower and Silent Void knew all about the talented geniuses among their peers, including ’Peace Adams,’ the Junior House Master.

However, the strength Peace Adams displayed today made them feel unfamiliar.

Sss! Sss!

When they came back to their senses, they gasped in shock. "Middle Saint Realm late stage... Peace Adams has actually advanced to the Middle Saint Realm late stage?"

They had only barely broke through to the Middle Saint Realm late stage a while ago, after all.

Now, this Peace Adams, whom they previously suppressed, had caught up with them in cultivation?

How could they not be shocked?

After killing GullyAshton Chapman, Peace Adams replaced him and became the new champion.

And just then, a disciple of Sky-scraping Mansion stepped forward. He was a Little Saint Realm late stage martial artist previously eliminated.

Seeing him step forward, not only did no one present laugh, but their faces became serious.

The scene before them was so similar to when Dane Adams stood out earlier!

For a moment, many people’s eyes fell on Peace Adams.

"Does this Peace Adams want to kill again?"

"Has he become addicted to killing?"

...

Unlike before, after Peace Adams demonstrated what seemed to be his Middle Saint Realm late stage strength, those who previously underestimated him didn’t dare to look at him the same way.

No kidding!

Previously, they knew nothing about Peace Adams’s strength. Now, after he killed GullyAshton Chapman instantly, they knew Peace Adams’s strength might not be below Monk Flower and Silent Void.

No one now believed Peace Adams hadn’t stepped up earlier because he feared Monk Flower and Silent Void.

Just as people thought, after the Sky-scraping Mansion disciple stepped into the ring, he challenged Peace Adams by name.

As everyone expected, Peace Adams admitted defeat.

After Peace Adams admitted defeat, he was eliminated from the stage.

At this point, as someone who wasn’t the champion, he could challenge any champion as his goal.

Peace Adams looked again at Wyatt Barnes, causing Wyatt to turn serious.

Now, his comprehension of the supreme heart sword technique in the Sword Dao has further deepened, infinitely nearing the second realm ’Sword Shadow Following Heart.’ Against a martial artist in the later stage of the Middle Saint Realm, he holds some ability to fight, yet it will be quite strenuous.

Moreover, he can discern that the strength Peace Adams just revealed is not merely a simple breakthrough to the later stage of the Middle Saint Realm.

Thus, facing Peace Adams, though he isn’t afraid, he still feels a bit unsure.

"He wants to challenge Eden Lee?"

Upon seeing Peace Adams glance at Wyatt Barnes, quite a few people were taken aback, "Is he planning to wipe out loose cultivators completely?"

If earlier those present did not believe Peace Adams could outmatch Eden Lee, now, they don’t consider Eden Lee to be Peace Adams’ opponent. In their eyes, once Peace Adams targets Eden Lee, Eden Lee is undoubtedly doomed.

At this moment, a crowd of loose cultivators had extremely unpleasant expressions.

"Junior House Master, this Eden Lee is even more unforgivable than GullyAshton Chapman; he consecutively killed two genius martial artists from our Sky-scraping Mansion!"

Upon seeing Peace Adams glance at Wyatt Barnes, Serene Adams’ eyes flashed sharply as he immediately conveyed a message to Peace Adams.

Of course, although he spoke nobly, Peace Adams was well aware that Serene Adams wanted to use him to avenge Shane Adams.

Originally, he indeed planned to challenge Wyatt Barnes.

However, after Serene Adams conveyed the message, he temporarily dismissed the idea of challenging Wyatt Barnes.

What a joke!

Not to mention he is the Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion, even disregarding his position, as the heir to the Swallowing Demon, his potential is boundless. How could he be led by the nose by a Grand Elder of Sky-scraping Mansion?

Thus, not only did Peace Adams not respond to Serene Adams, but instead he shifted his gaze away from Wyatt Barnes.

Immediately, many loose cultivators breathed a sigh of relief.

Serene Adams’ face turned livid; he didn’t expect Peace Adams to ignore him and even shift his focus, seemingly not intending to challenge Eden Lee.

Though angry, he could do nothing.

Though a Grand Elder of Sky-scraping Mansion, Peace Adams is the Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion.

In Sky-scraping Mansion, with his status as the son of the House Master, Peace Adams’ position is above the Grand Elder’s.

Quickly, Peace Adams’ gaze landed on Monk Flower.

Simultaneously, he moved swiftly, appearing on the chess piece where Monk Flower was located in the blink of an eye, standing opposite Monk Flower, "Monk Flower, I used to be not as strong as you... but today, I shall prove to everyone: I, Peace Adams, the Junior House Master of Sky-scraping Mansion, am the foremost strongman among the young adults in the Sky-scraping Mansion region!"

Peace Adams spoke these words with full energy and tremendous self-confidence, brimming with infectiousness.

However, confronted with Peace Adams’ self-assurance, Monk Flower merely gave a slight smile, "Junior House Master Adams, your breakthrough to the later stage of the Middle Saint Realm is stunning... yet, if you think breaking through to the later stage allows you to defeat me, then you are gravely mistaken!"

As soon as the words fell, Monk Flower’s robe fluttered, and True Origin surged forth from within.

In an instant, centered around Monk Flower, the surrounding void trembled, ripple-like patterns clearly visible.

The first to detect the aura emanating from Monk Flower’s body were undoubtedly DonovanTasker, Castiel Mullins, and Serene Adams, whose pupils contracted in unison, shock apparent in their expressions, and exclaimed, "Later stage of the Middle Saint Realm!"

Though their exclamations were not loud, those present all had astonishing hearing, naturally overhearing their words.

All of a sudden, those present looked with shock towards Monk Flower, "Monk Flower... has also broken through to the later stage of the Middle Saint Realm?"

"As expected, one of the two most outstanding young adults in our Sky-scraping Mansion region... Monk Flower’s talent and strength are truly outrageous!"

"Monk Flower broke through too, but I wonder if Silent Void has also broken through."

...

Compared to Peace Adams breaking through to the later stage of the Middle Saint Realm, Monk Flower’s breakthrough merely astonished the crowd for a while before their emotions settled down.

In the crowd’s eyes, Monk Flower always stood out exceptionally and was already a martial artist at the mid-stage of the Middle Saint Realm.

Learning today that he broke through to the later stage, though surprising, seemed reasonable.

Meanwhile, as they marveled at Monk Flower’s breakthrough to the later stage of the Middle Saint Realm, many were also curious whether Silent Void had broken through.

"If my guess is correct, Silent Void, you should have broken through as well?"

At an unknown time, Peace Adams stepped into the air and looked at the young Taoist standing on another chess piece nearby, asking loudly.

Throughout, regarding the cultivation Monk Flower displayed, Peace Adams seemed to show little surprise, more like he had foreseen this outcome.

Not only that, when Monk Flower exhibited his later stage cultivation of the Middle Saint Realm, he even had the leisure to inquire about Silent Void’s cultivation.

Faced with Peace Adams’ inquiry, Silent Void, though silent, still nodded.

Instantly, the crowd present was once again in an uproar.

Even Silent Void had broken through to the later stage of the Middle Saint Realm?

This means, in this Overleaping Rankings battle, three powerhouses in the later stage have emerged?

"Good, very good."

Peace Adams was very pleased with Silent Void’s response.

Immediately after, he looked up at DonovanTasker and Castiel Mullins, "Vice House Master Tasker, Elder Mullins... I wish to challenge Monk Flower and Silent Void both simultaneously!"
