Peach Blossom Divine Medical God Chapter 2175 - 2131: In the Spotlight
Previously on Peach Blossom Divine Medical God...
Due to the events of the previous days, they’ve escalated to an uncontrollable level after fermenting for two days.
The entire academy is buzzing about the duel between Chen Yang and Zou Tianming.
A newcomer from this realm directly challenges a powerhouse in the third district.
It’s not just unprecedented; no one would even dare to imagine it.
A normal person wouldn’t even dream of such a thing.
It’s just too fantastical.
"Did you hear? Because of the duel’s unique nature, the academy has made special arrangements, giving them the first match right away."
"Is that so? Let’s hurry over then, it’s almost time."
"Hahaha, I wonder how Chen Yang will look after being beaten by Zou Tianming. It’ll probably be quite awful."
"Not necessarily, you shouldn’t underestimate that guy. Although he’s from this realm, his strength is quite decent."
"Otherwise, how could he have easily defeated Li Tian?"
"Hmm, that’s true, but I still think winning is impossible; at most, he might survive an extra couple of moves against Zou Tianming."
...
The academy is buzzing with this topic.
Knowing that he would be the first to fight today, Chen Yang finished his training early, changed into clean clothes, and left his cave dwelling.
He drew attention the moment he stepped out.
When he reached the arena area of the academy, cheers erupted everywhere.
It wasn’t because Chen Yang was particularly popular.
There were just too many people eager to watch the spectacle.
Their cheers were more about the spectacle rather than truly welcoming Chen Yang.
But it didn’t matter.
What Chen Yang wanted was the position in the third district.
And to teach Zou Tianming a little lesson.
That guy was too arrogant; how could he not be taught a lesson?
Zou Tianming had arrived early with his entourage nearby.
Seeing Chen Yang arrive, he sneered coldly, full of disdain.
"You really dare to face me? Very well, since you’re asking for humiliation, I’ll oblige you!" Zou Tianming moved and headed straight for the arena.
"Big brother, remember to avenge me, and slap him to death."
The lackey still remembers Chen Yang giving him a couple of slaps and strongly demands Zou Tianming avenge him.
Zou Tianming remained silent as he approached the arena.
Today’s arena was particularly lively.
Because Zou Tianming wore a purple robe, many fellow purple-robed disciples came to watch.
There were even powerhouses from the second district.
Men and women, all talents of the heavens, drawing considerable attention.
"Haha, just another clown seeking attention, bouncing around like this after only a few days here. Does he really think the Mystic Realm is the same as the local realm?"
In the spectator stands, a handsome purple-robed disciple sneered coldly.
He didn’t know Chen Yang, but he was very displeased with Chen Yang’s actions!
His words were frivolous, but none of the disciples around dared to refute him.
Because the speaker was Jun Chenghao, the renowned third in the ranking of the second district!
Jun Chenghao, third in the second district!
Not only is he immensely talented, but he also comes from the Jun Family, a top-tier power under Cangnan Academy!
With such a strong background and innate talent, wouldn’t he stand out wherever he went?
Naturally, no one dared to refute him.
However, after a few seconds, a girl standing not far from Jun Chenghao objected.
The girl was also in a purple robe, indicating she was from the second district as well.
She had bright, white teeth, and was exceptionally beautiful, with long black hair cascading naturally over her shoulders, her figure perfectly proportioned.
Her beauty was flawless!
"Don’t talk too soon; even though the local realm is barren, it’s still our ancestral land, perhaps real talent might emerge."
"And besides, Zou Tianming’s strength isn’t that overwhelming; defeating him isn’t impossible."
The speaker was Yang Qingwan of the Yang Family, another top-tier power under Cangnan Academy, who replied calmly.
Although the Jun and Yang families are both powers under Cangnan Academy, their rivalry is quite normal.
Thus, as descendants of these families, they naturally held some hostility towards each other.
Yang Qingwan didn’t really think much of Chen Yang, she just wanted to counter Jun Chenghao.
Jun Chenghao chuckled at her words: "Yang Qingwan, does this mean you favor that local kid?"
"Yes, why not?"
Yang Qingwan replied without backing down.
"Then, would you dare to place a bet with me?" Jun Chenghao seemed to have been waiting for this.
Yang Qingwan froze, realizing she’d fallen into a trap.
Seeing her hesitance, Jun Chenghao grinned triumphantly: "What? Are you afraid?"
Yang Qingwan arched an elegant brow, still refusing to back down, "A bet’s a bet, why wouldn’t I dare?"
"Great, then let’s bet five thousand contribution coins on who wins this arena match," Jun Chenghao proposed with a smile.
"It’s a deal."
Yang Qingwan agreed decisively.
Inside, however, she was anxious and not very confident.
She was only willing to bet to maintain her momentum in front of Jun Chenghao.
Besides, for people of their level, five thousand contribution coins aren’t much.
Just one or two tasks could earn it back.
Their conversation surprised and confused the others.
They were astonished by how easily they wagered five thousand contribution coins.
Meanwhile, they, as struggling fifth-district students, were still striving to earn a few hundred coins...
Comparisons are infuriating.
The confusion stemmed from one thought: Why was Yang Qingwan, one of the academy’s four great beauties, favoring Chen Yang?
After all, he was an unsophisticated newbie with no great strength.
Could it be that the goddess Qingwan had some past with Chen Yang?
The plebeians wept silently...
Back to the arena.
Soon after Zou Tianming took the stage, Chen Yang also stepped forward.
Amid everyone’s gaze, he nodded, confirming his challenge to Zou Tianming!
Wow!
Although the news of Chen Yang challenging Zou Tianming had spread throughout the academy these two days,
hearing it directly from Chen Yang’s mouth made all the difference.
The crowd erupted in surprise.
"This guy actually dares to challenge Zou Tianming, he’s got guts."
"Haha, I don’t feel anything but think he’s stupid."
"Hmph, what do you know? That’s called spine, would you dare step onto the stage?"
...
There were at least two thousand spectators, a large portion of the academy’s students.
Some admired Chen Yang’s decision.
Others thought it foolish.
Why suffer just for a moment’s satisfaction?
But they never considered that Chen Yang had his thoughts.
His goal was Zou Tianming’s position.
Venting anger was secondary.
"Hehe, very good. Regardless of today’s outcome, just for your courage, I won’t kill you," Zou Tianming said with a smile after seeing Chen Yang nod.
He was actually worried that Chen Yang might back down at this moment.
If he did, Zou Tianming wouldn’t be able to demonstrate to the entire academy what happens when someone offends Zou Tianming!
