Chapter 471 Responding to the Challenge
Three days later, the decisive battle will take place on the shore of Jinghu Lake.
When the news of Qin Chuan accepting the challenge spread, the entire Dragon Kingdom was in an uproar.
In fact, many people believe that Qin Chuan might not accept the challenge, and if he does, there's nothing the Sword Immortal can do.
After all, the Sword Immortal issued a challenge to Qin Chuan, which could be described as bullying the weak, so it's not shameful for him not to accept the challenge.
To everyone's surprise, Qin Chuan accepted the challenge so readily.
The challenge had only been sent out for a short time when Qin Chuan accepted it.
To put it bluntly, there was absolutely no hesitation.
For a time, the entire martial arts world was buzzing about this.
"My god, Qin Xian actually accepted the challenge! He has such audacity! He dares to accept a challenge from a sword immortal? Does he have a death wish?"
"Does he think he can beat a sword immortal?"
"It's probably because Qin Xian has cut off half of his martial arts during this period, and no one can beat him, which has made him a bit arrogant. Otherwise, how would he dare to accept the challenge like this?"
"However, I think that with the methods of the Martial Arts Center, even if Qin Xian does not accept the challenge, there are ways to force him to do so."
"After the battle at Jinghu in three days, the martial arts world of the Dragon Kingdom will be reshaped, and there may never be another Qin Xian!"
"..."
No one had a good chance of killing Qin Chuan; everyone agreed that Jian Shifeng could kill him.
This is not surprising. Although no one is sure whether Jian Shifeng has reached the Earth Immortal realm, many sword cultivators can kill enemies even if they cross realms.
Moreover, he is hailed as the world's number one swordsman.
He had cultivated his sword energy for nearly two hundred years, and he was once able to split a mountain with a single sword strike. The sword energy he left in the Tian Shu Pavilion was even more powerful, capable of opening the gates of heaven with a single sword strike.
Now that the Sword Immortal has personally taken action, how can we not defeat Qin Chuan?
"Ha ha……"
The headquarters of the Martial Arts Central Association was filled with laughter.
In this Central Council headquarters, there are also the eight elders of the Tian Shu Pavilion, as well as a small group of guards from the Supreme Alliance.
The members of the Supreme Alliance Guard also have impressive backgrounds, which is why they are qualified to enter the headquarters of the Martial Arts Central Association.
They were sitting together, discussing how to force Qin Chuan to accept the challenge.
Some suggested taking down the people around Qin Chuan, while others suggested directly sealing off Jinling to leave Qin Chuan nowhere to hide. With their current martial arts strength, official backing, and the martial arts center's ability to mobilize warriors, they could achieve their goals.
Blocking Nanjing is not difficult; all that is needed is to block all the exits.
Even if Qin Chuan were a peak martial arts expert, he would not be able to leave Jinling.
Chang Ruxin even suggested taking down the woman next to Qin Chuan and killing her on the spot.
Just then, news came back that Qin Chuan had accepted the challenge, and everyone burst into laughter.
"How arrogant! They actually accepted the challenge so easily. It seems we don't need to go through any more trouble."
"Hehe, Qin Xian has always been like this. When our Supreme Alliance was going to try him before, we all thought he wouldn't dare to come. But not only did he come, he also wiped us out."
"Our Grand Secretary was the same; he thought he would be safe once he returned to the Tian Shu Pavilion, but instead he came knocking on our door."
"They're completely disregarding us."
"Now they don't even take the Sword Immortal seriously."
"..."
Both the Tian Shu Pavilion and the Supreme Alliance harbored deep resentment towards Qin Chuan.
The same applies to the martial arts center, especially Chang Ruxin. Qin Chuan killed Roger and others right in front of her and even crushed her into the seabed with his aura, leaving her in a sorry state.
"I think that bastard surnamed Qin is probably trying to lull us into a false sense of security by pretending to fight. I think my previous suggestion is worth implementing: just kill everyone around him, and I don't believe he won't come!"
"Anyway, our martial arts center has the privilege of acting first and reporting later!"
A proposal is just a proposal.
However, Chang Ruxin's suggestion was not adopted.
If they actually accept the offer, Qin Chuan might not immediately fight back, but instead go on a rampage to hunt them down.
"Minister Chang, once the Sword Immortal kills Qin Xian, you can deal with the people around him however you want in no time. However, we still need to keep a close eye on Qin Xian these next few days."
"Yes, surveillance is definitely necessary!"
"..."
The proposal was quickly and unanimously approved.
All we need to do now is wait quietly for the big battle in three days.
Chang Xiao gave a cold laugh.
"Everyone, take these next few days to thoroughly investigate the resources Qin Chuan has on hand. If you can find out about immortality, that would be the best outcome."
Upon hearing the word "immortality," everyone became incredibly excited and nodded in agreement.
It's as if immortality is just around the corner!
The martial arts community overseas is also discussing this battle.
Originally, after Qin Chuan killed Roger and others, martial arts practitioners overseas demanded an explanation from the Dragon Kingdom.
In less than half a day, news broke that the Dragon Kingdom's Sword Immortal had issued a challenge to Qin Chuan.
The name of the Sword Immortal is known to everyone, even in the overseas martial arts world.
"Tsk tsk... It's actually a sword immortal. Is he about to make a move?"
On a high-rise building in an island nation, an old man holding a knife gazes in the direction of the Dragon Kingdom.
"Teacher...can that sword immortal really kill Qin Xian?" a woman beside him asked curiously.
The old man nodded slightly: "In my entire life of traversing the path of the sword, there is only one person I have ever lost to... and that person is Sword Madman!"
hiss!
The woman gasped upon hearing this: "Teacher, even you were defeated by him?"
"Yes, that was a hundred years ago. In pursuit of the highest level of swordsmanship, I went to the Dragon Kingdom to challenge this sword immortal, and in the end I defeated him by half a sword."
The old man's expression was somewhat complicated: "Now, a hundred years have passed. I wonder how strong he is now. A hundred years ago, he was already a half-immortal. Perhaps he has now stepped into the realm of a true earth immortal."
"It's a pity that since the Sword Immortal has taken action, I don't need to do anything else. It's a shame that I can't avenge my old friend Hattori Hanzo myself."
This old man is known as the Sword Emperor in the island nation, and his name is Miyamoto Musashi!
……
The challenge was issued.
Some are happy, some are sad.
The Qin family was the most frustrated at this moment.
Half a day ago, the Qin family returned home from the Supreme Martial Arts Alliance. Upon learning that the Tian Shu Pavilion had been destroyed by Qin Chuan, they all shouted with excitement.
They even plan to hold a martial arts exchange meeting three days later, inviting top martial artists from the martial arts world to participate.
It was originally thought that the Qin family could use this martial arts exchange to become the number one martial arts family in the Dragon Kingdom.
Unexpectedly, less than half a day after the excitement began, news spread that the Sword Immortal had issued a challenge to Qin Chuan.
Oh my God!
Although they had never witnessed the power of a sword immortal, they were well aware of how terrifying a sword immortal was.
How could Qin Chuan possibly be a match for him?
Qin De almost knelt on the ground and roared to the sky.
"That scoundrel Qin Chuan... he's ruined the Qin family!"
