I Am the Fated Villain – Chapter 275

Chapter 275: Establish Dominance; Stronger Than Everyone Else!

“Young Master Changge really want to confront Buddhist Jin Chan?”

The several elderly people in front of the mountain gate were shocked and looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while. 

According to reason, as one of the top ten Rankers now, both Gu Changge and Buddhist Jin Chan should be very cautious in their confrontation. 

After all, any unfavourable outcome could easily undermine their status in the True Immortal Academy. 

“Is Young Master Changge serious about this?” 

Even Buddhist Jin Chan’s face showed a serious expression, which was the first time he had revealed any emotion other than calmness. 

He stared at Gu Changge intently. 

Buddhist Jin Chan didn’t think he had offended Gu Changge. This was only their first meeting. 

“This Gu Changge is too arrogant. He doesn’t even have other Young Geniuses in his eyes and is so self-assured.” 

Ying Shuang said as he clenched her fists amidst the crowd. 

He became more convinced that Gu Changge was the True Inheritor of the Forbidden Demonic Arts. His purpose in taking action was likely only to test Jin Chan’s strength, or to display his terrifying power in public. 

In the future, the True Immortal Academy, like the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace, would be dominated by Gu Changge.

“It is just sparring. Brother Jin doesn’t have to care much about it.”

Gu Changge said with a relaxed smile. “But if Brother Jin Chan refuses, this Gu won’t force you.” 

“As one of the younger generation, there are not many who can pique my interest in sparring,” he added. 

Although Gu Changge’s words were simple, they made everyone present feel as if a great mountain was weighing down on them, leaving them gasping for breath. 

His attitude was casual and domineering, and he seemed completely indifferent to his opponent! 

They knew that this was not just arrogance on Gu Changge’s part, but rather that he truly had the confidence to speak in such a manner, making it impossible for anyone to refute him. 

But his words were also a kind of recognition. 

To be mentioned by Gu Changge as someone he was interested in sparring with was already a great honour! 

“Very well then, I look forward to it!” Jin Chan sighed inwardly, knowing that this battle was inevitable. 

He had not come to the True Immortal Academy to compete, but the pressure he felt from Gu Changge was not insignificant. 

Soon, news of the incident spread throughout the area. 

Streaks of rainbow lights continuously rushed from various parts of the True Immortal Academy, and figures appeared on the peaks to observe the battle. 

It was not an exaggeration to say that this was the peak battle among the younger generation in the True Immortal Academy. 

It was a battle between two of the top ten rankings in the academy! 

Buzz! 

In the depths of the sky, the chaotic mist spread, and a golden avenue extended all the way. The elders rushed over, equally eager and curious about the battle. 

Many people had guessed the purpose of Gu Changge’s action. Wasn’t he trying to establish his prestige by taking the initiative to speak up? 

As a newcomer, the True Immortal Academy had no accurate hierarchy. 

By taking the initiative to fight, he was telling others about his strength, making them aware of their own abilities and acknowledging who was the most powerful in the academy. 

Of course, this was just speculation from the crowd. 

On top of a mountain peak, a woman with fiery phoenix wings on her back, dressed in a long red gown with flames wrapped around her arms. 

Viewed from afar, she was exquisitely beautiful, with a naturally noble bearing, like a phoenix goddess sculpted from red fairy crystals. 

She was the Ancient Freak from the Phoenix Mountain, and also one of the top ten Rankers, the Heavenly Phoenix Maiden! 

It is said that she is related to the Immortal Phoenix, and there are even rumours that she is the reincarnation of the Immortal Phoenix. 

“Gu Changge…” 

She whispered these two words. 

Then, her phoenix wings trembled behind her, and her figure blurred before she left the area.

[Inside a Cave]

‘Gu Changge took the initiative to challenge Buddhist Jin Chan?’

A man in the purple robe furrowed his brow and thought, ‘This is the perfect opportunity to investigate the truth behind the rumours. I must see it with my own eyes.’

With that, he swiftly left the area, surrounded by a magnificent purple aura, heading towards the Mountain Gate. 

“Even Ziyang Tianjun is going there?” 

This scene caught the attention of many people, causing shock and amazement. 

Ziyang Tianjun was the first disciple to arrive at the True Immortal Academy, hailing from the immortal lineage of the Purple Palace. 

At the same time, he was also an Ancient Freak who had been sealed for a long time, surpassing his contemporaries and ranking as the number one in the Upper Realm. 

The Purple Palace was also an extremely mysterious and ancient immortal tradition, with an incredibly long and enduring legacy. 

In front of the mountain gate, it was bustling. 

Various figures flickered, all with powerful auras that would be invincible in the outside world, as they were all Young Supremes! 

Among them, most were inner disciples and Numbered disciples. Many Rankers have yet to arrive at the True Immortal Academy. 

For example, the two descendants of the Human Ancestral Hall were still missing, and the mysterious Six-Crowned King has not appeared. 

In addition, the remaining major Rankers were also very mysterious, with elusive traces. 

“I wonder who will win this battle? I feel that Buddhist Jin Chan is very mysterious. Before this, I had never heard of him, but being designated as a Ranker by the True Immortal Academy, he must have exceptional abilities.” 

“This battle is very suspenseful.” 

“Not necessarily. Without using other means, I think that Young Master Changge is definitely superior based on his own strength alone. After all, he is the only one who has ever been able to resist the Forbidden Demonic Arts’ Inheritor.” 

“Nowadays, there are rumours that Young Master Changge may be the reincarnation of the Human Ancestor.” 

“Gosh! No wonder…” 

Many people were discussing, and at this point, they couldn’t help but inhale a cold breath, shocked. 

“Young Master Changge!” 

“My apologies!” 

While everyone was discussing, Jin Chan, who had been sitting on the back of the Golden Nine-headed Lion all along, made a move. His voice was calm. 

Radiant light filled the air, and Buddhist chants interwove, exuding unparalleled sacred brilliance. 

As soon as he made a move, he displayed incredibly profound and mysterious Buddhist Arts, and an image of a divine halo appeared in his mind, resembling an immortal Buddha. 

Moreover, he didn’t dare to underestimate his opponent. The strength he displayed was already at the level of a Saint. 

The ancient Buddha Dharma evolved, and a towering golden Buddha statue appeared, radiating dazzling light. 

The terrifying aura made many Young Geniuses present turn pale and feel as if their bodies were about to burst. 

“So strong!” 

“Sacred Realm strength. Is this how powerful the current generation of Buddhist disciples is? It’s already far beyond us!” 

They were shocked and trembling in fear! 

Such strength, if displayed earlier, would have definitely caused a sensation in various regions. 

Boom! 

The huge golden Buddha statue pressed down on Gu Changge, as if it was going to crush him. 

“Brother Jin Chan, are you underestimating me? If this is all you can do, then I’m really disappointed.” 

However, on the face of Gu Changge, there was still a smile, seemingly indifferent. 

Buzz!

He just raised one of his hands slightly! 

The other hand didn’t even move. 

Instead, he lightly pressed forward! 

The sound of booming exploded in the void as if it was about to burst open. 

In the next moment, his palm became incredibly real, and the void collapsed instantly. 

It was like the hand of the heavens, with the aura of the Great Dao circulating, accompanied by colourful divine light and immortal mist! 

The thousand-zhang tall Buddha image, with its majestic appearance, shattered under this palm and disappeared instantly. 

“What!? It shattered with just one strike…” 

“It’s simply despairing, this is too powerful!” 

This scene made everyone present tremble in fear, involuntarily feeling a chill in their hearts. 

“It cannot be measured by common sense.” 

Even the Heavenly Phoenix Maiden and Ziyang Tianjun frowned slightly, secretly comparing and realizing that neither Gu Changge nor Jin Chan had used their full strength. 

Soon, Jin Chan made another move and a golden bowl flew out from under his monk’s robe. 

Buddhist light shone brightly, illuminating all directions and containing Zen, as if it could purify everything. 

This was an Ancient Buddhist Artifact, containing the Holy power, and it radiated a terrifying Divine Light like a galaxy falling down. 

Gu Changge was unfazed by this. 

He only flicked his finger, and a burst of sword aura erupted. 

But it produced a terrifying sword chant, and in a trance, everyone seemed to see an unparalleled immortal sword slashing through the universe, with the dazzling sword light falling down! 

Everyone involuntarily closed their eyes. 

The next moment, they heard a cracking sound, as if billions of rays of light were blooming, and the golden bowl had a crack. 

Soon, this trace spread and seemed to be about to shatter. 

If it weren’t for Jin Chan realizing the situation was not good and quickly retracting it, he would have lost an Ancient Buddhist Artifact today. 

“The strength of Young Master Changge is powerful, I’m no longer a match for you.” 

“I am willing to admit defeat.” 

Jin Chan’s expression changed slightly, but he sighed and chose not to continue his attack, but rather to concede. 

“Brother Jin Chan, you are really boring.” 

“But since you said so, naturally I won’t make a move either.” 

Upon hearing this, Gu Changge seemed a little surprised, but his smile remained unchanged. 

Jin Chan’s choice to concede was within his expectations. 

At times like this, with no grievances or grudges, who would use all their means and fight to the death? 

He just wanted to test Jin Chan’s strength and assess the feasibility of his subsequent plans. 

Of course, he also wanted to establish his dominance and let everyone know that even at the same level, the difference between them was still significant. 

In fact, Gu Changge didn’t like the feeling of being compared to others. 

Before, he was afraid of attracting unnecessary suspicion about his cultivation level. 

But now, with the emergence of many Ancient Freaks and the second Inheritor of the Forbidden Demonic Arts, even if his cultivation level was stronger, he will not attract as much attention as before. 

Although he was still competing with the younger generation, he wanted to make it clear to them that the gap between them was not small.

In simpler terms, he wanted to show that he was much stronger than them. 

Although Gu Changge doesn’t really care about the various resources of the True Immortal Academy, it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t care about the benefits that come with having a stronger cultivation level.

Upon hearing this, Jin Chan shook his head calmly without saying anything. 

He did not appear to be defeated or resentful. 

He still had many tricks up his sleeve, but he was aware that even with all of them, it would be difficult to defeat Gu Changge. He was just too strong, bone-deep strong! 

Today, it was his bad luck to run into Gu Changge, but if he encountered other sequence disciples, Gu Changge would speak just as confidently. 

He wanted to establish his dominance and establish a hierarchy so that in the future, he could rule the True Immortal Academy with an iron fist. 

“This guy’s confidence isn’t unfounded.” 

“You’re the only Inheritor who’s been suppressed by the other Young Geniuses.” 

Outside the Mountain Gate, after a long silence, Mo Lao’s expression became slightly solemn, and he spoke to Ying Shuang beside him. 

For the first time, he felt that things were becoming tricky. 

He thought finding this generation’s Inheritor of Forbidden Demonic Arts would make things simpler, but why did someone like Gu Changge have to appear? 

His strength was beyond belief. The power of Gu Changge was truly despair-inducing. 

Ying Shunag estimated that even the original Prince Ying would not be able to compete with Gu Changge. 

This made his fists clench tightly, feeling unwilling. Currently, he took comfort in the fact that he was hiding in the shadows, and Gu Changge was unaware of his presence at the True Immortal Academy. 

This grudge, he would definitely repay!

— — —

“This matter requires careful consideration.” 

“Before that, I need to find a way to warn Gu Xian’er about the danger of Gu Changge.” 

“Although she was so cold to me in the past, I haven’t reached the point of turning a blind eye when she’s in such danger.” 

Ziyang Tianjun frowned, his expression was heavy as he muttered to himself. 

He didn’t know who would come out on top if he went all out against Gu Changge. 

For the first time in his life, he lacked confidence when facing someone. Gu Changge was indeed much more terrifying than the rumours had suggested. 

On the other side, the Heavenly Phoenix Maiden stared at Gu Changge, as if to remember him firmly, before disappearing quickly. 

“This Jin Chan is quite unlucky.” 

Yue Mingkong spoke lightly, aware of Gu Changge’s intentions. 

“Unlucky? I think he is quite lucky. After all, he is still alive even after fighting with me.” Gu Changge’s smile was somewhat intriguing. 

Yue Mingkong glanced at him and felt as if he was calculating something again. Was it related to the Demon Burial Abyss? 

Soon, the result of the battle in front of the True Immortal Academy’s Mountain Gate spread. 

The battle at the True Immortal Academy caused great waves in the whole Upper Realm. 

The younger generation naturally caught the attention of the major sects. 

The fight between Gu Changge and Buddhist Jin Chan was particularly eye-catching. 

The result of this battle was recorded on the Image-Recording Stones and spread among the various Ancient Cities. 

For a while, Gu Changge’s reputation reached a new peak. 

Previously, many people felt that he had not cultivated for long enough and was not comparable to those Ancient Freaks. 

But today’s battle shocked many people and left them speechless. 

Even those Ancient Freaks would probably pale in comparison before him. 

Many of the older generation felt that they probably weren’t even a match for Gu Changge anymore, and unconsciously, he had grown to a point where he was being watched and feared by the older generation.

[Several Days Later]

“It seems that Qing Xiaoyi has indeed joined the True Immortal Academy.” 

“The so-called Immortal Demon Physique.” 

“If my memory serves me right, the bottle is now in the hands of her brother.” 

These words were spoken in a magnificent palace located very close to where Gu Changge was. 

Yue Mingkong spoke softly, with many different expressions flashing in her eyes. 

Yue Mingkong had a strong impression of Qing Xiaoyi, who was a legendary figure in her previous life. 

Her rise to power shocked the various sects and forces in the upper realm, as she was one of the True Immortal Academy’s two most prized disciples. 

The other was a peculiar stone that had been sealed by the True Immortal Academy for many years.
