Xu Ning screamed.
[RUN!]
The floor disappeared.
Shen Tian fell.
Xu Ning followed.
[HAHAHAHAHA!]
"Stop laughing."
[YOU TOLD THE INHERITANCE YOU CAME TO STEAL IT!]
"Honesty is important."
[NOT ALWAYS!]
They disappeared into the darkness.
BOOOOOOM!
Shen Tian landed.
Dust exploded.
He stood slowly.
Brushed off his jacket.
Then...
Looked around.
Lu Chen stood fifty meters away.
Blood covered his arms.
Three destroyed armored warriors lay around him.
He was breathing heavily.
But smiling.
Then...
He saw Shen Tian.
His smile vanished.
Absolute silence.
Shen Tian looked around.
Then at Lu Chen.
"Hello."
Lu Chen stared.
His eye twitched.
"You."
"Me."
"What..."
Lu Chen’s Qi started rising.
"...are you doing here?"
Shen Tian smiled.
"Sightseeing."
Lu Chen stared.
"At two in the morning."
"Night tours are underrated."
"Inside an ancient inheritance."
"Very exclusive."
Lu Chen’s entire body trembled.
Xu Ning appeared beside Shen Tian.
[Host...]
"Fine."
Shen Tian looked directly at Lu Chen.
"I followed you."
Lu Chen’s expression became murderous.
"Why?"
Shen Tian smiled.
"You know why."
Silence.
Lu Chen slowly looked around.
Then...
Realization.
His face darkened.
"My inheritance."
"Potentially."
"You came..."
His voice dropped.
"...for my inheritance."
Shen Tian shrugged.
"Basically."
Lu Chen laughed.
Once.
Twice.
Then...
His laughter became darker.
"Of course."
Shen Tian raised an eyebrow.
Lu Chen wiped blood from his mouth.
"Of fucking course."
His eyes became bloodshot.
"Even here."
Qi erupted.
"Even THIS..."
BOOM!
"...you have to take from me?!"
Shen Tian’s expression remained calm.
"Nothing here belongs to you yet."
Wrong answer.
Lu Chen vanished.
BOOM!
His fist appeared directly in front of Shen Tian’s face.
Shen Tian blocked.
BANG!
The entire chamber shook.
Lu Chen immediately followed.
Left hook.
Elbow.
Knee.
Shen Tian blocked all three.
Lu Chen roared.
"GET OUT!"
Shen Tian caught his wrist.
"No."
Lu Chen’s other fist came.
Shen Tian caught that too.
They stood face-to-face.
Qi exploding around them.
Lu Chen’s teeth clenched.
"YOU HAVE EVERYTHING!"
Shen Tian stared.
"And?"
"WHY CAN’T YOU LEAVE ONE FUCKING THING ALONE?!"
Shen Tian’s eyes narrowed.
"Because you’re trying to kill me."
Silence.
Lu Chen froze.
Only slightly.
Shen Tian continued.
"You told me yourself."
"If you get stronger..."
His grip tightened.
"...you intend to use that strength against me."
Lu Chen’s eyes widened.
"So why..."
Shen Tian shoved him backward.
BOOM!
Lu Chen slid across the floor.
"...would I let you have it?"
Silence.
That...
Was different.
Lu Chen stood.
His expression remained hateful.
But...
He couldn’t argue.
Shen Tian continued.
"You wanted us to be enemies."
His green eyes became cold.
"Fine."
"You got what you wanted."
Lu Chen stared.
Shen Tian slowly removed his jacket.
He folded it.
Placed it on a broken pillar.
Xu Ning blinked.
[Host?]
Shen Tian rolled his shoulders.
"Enemies don’t protect each other’s opportunities."
Lu Chen’s Qi rose.
Shen Tian’s Domain began spreading.
"They take them."
Lu Chen smiled.
Cold.
Violent.
"Good."
His aura exploded.
"Then stop talking."
Shen Tian smiled.
"Gladly."
Both vanished.
BOOOOOOOOOOM!
Their fists collided.
The underground chamber shook violently.
Cracks spread across the ceiling.
Lu Chen attacked first.
Punch.
Shen Tian blocked.
Kick.
Shen Tian shifted.
Elbow.
Blocked.
Lu Chen spun.
Heel kick.
Shen Tian ducked.
BOOM!
The kick destroyed a pillar.
Shen Tian’s eyes sharpened.
Faster.
Lu Chen was already faster.
The trial had done something.
Not much.
But enough.
Lu Chen attacked again.
Shen Tian caught his forearm.
Lu Chen twisted.
Used Shen Tian’s grip as leverage.
Knee.
THUD!
Shen Tian blocked with his palm.
Then...
Lu Chen smiled.
Shen Tian’s eyes narrowed.
A hidden strike.
Lu Chen’s fingers formed a blade.
Qi condensed.
He stabbed toward Shen Tian’s ribs.
Shen Tian moved.
SHING!
His shirt tore.
A thin line appeared across his skin.
Silence.
Both stopped.
Lu Chen stared.
Blood.
One tiny line of blood.
On Shen Tian.
His smile slowly widened.
"I hit you."
Shen Tian looked down.
Then...
At Lu Chen.
Lu Chen laughed.
"I HIT YOU!"
His aura surged.
"You’re not untouchable!"
Shen Tian touched the cut.
Looked at the blood on his finger.
Xu Ning stared.
[Host...]
Shen Tian smiled.
"Good."
Lu Chen’s laughter stopped.
"What?"
Shen Tian’s green eyes lifted.
"You’re finally improving."
Then...
He disappeared.
Lu Chen’s pupils contracted.
Too late.
BOOM!
A fist buried itself in his stomach.
"UGH!"
Lu Chen folded.
Shen Tian grabbed his shoulder.
Knee.
THUD!
Lu Chen’s head snapped backward.
Spin.
Kick.
BOOOOOOM!
Lu Chen flew.
CRASH!
He smashed through two stone pillars.
Shen Tian appeared above him.
Lu Chen’s eyes widened.
"Shit—"
BOOM!
Shen Tian drove him into the ground.
The entire chamber jumped.
Lu Chen coughed blood.
Shen Tian grabbed his shirt.
Lifted him.
Then...
Their eyes met.
Lu Chen smiled through bloody teeth.
"Better."
Shen Tian paused.
Lu Chen headbutted him.
THUD!
Shen Tian stepped backward.
Lu Chen attacked.
Punch.
Blocked.
Punch.
Blocked.
Kick.
Shen Tian caught it.
Lu Chen jumped with his other leg.
WHAM!
Both feet struck Shen Tian’s chest.
Shen Tian slid backward.
Lu Chen landed.
They stared.
Then...
Both smiled.
Not friendship.
Not respect.
Something far more hostile.
Recognition.
For the first time...
Lu Chen was actually forcing Shen Tian to move.
And for the first time...
Shen Tian wasn’t treating Lu Chen like entertainment.
Lu Chen wiped blood from his mouth.
"What’s wrong?"
He smiled.
"Not boring anymore?"
Shen Tian’s eyebrow rose.
Then...
He laughed.
"Better."
Lu Chen’s smile disappeared.
"But still not enough."
Lu Chen’s eye twitched.
"I really..."
His aura exploded.
"...fucking..."
The ground cracked.
"...HATE YOU!"
Shen Tian smiled.
"I noticed."
They charged.
BOOOOOOM!
Above them...
The ancient statue watched.
Its glowing eyes followed every exchange.
Shen Tian.
Lu Chen.
Power.
Hatred.
Pride.
Competition.
Something unexpected began happening.
The inheritance...
Was watching both.
Not merely Lu Chen.
Testing.
Judging.
Comparing.
Then...
A voice echoed throughout the underground ruins.
"ENOUGH."
Both men stopped.
Not willingly.
An enormous pressure forced them apart.
Lu Chen slid backward.
Shen Tian’s eyes narrowed.
The ground between them opened.
RUMBLE!
A staircase appeared.
