How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 259 - 0255 Cruel Method

Chapter 259: Chapter 0255 Cruel Method Chapter 259 -0255 Cruel Method “For the strong, this is an opportunity, but for the weak, it is torture!”

Situ Lin Yu’s words made the students who were eliminated flush with embarrassment.

Meanwhile, inside the Array, each student clenched their teeth, none of them willing to wear the “weak” label.

Beside Chen Yu, Yang Zhang seemed to have a decent chance of passing the elimination round.

Yang Zhang’s talent and potential were quite good among the new students. After staying at the academy for half a year, he had broken through to the Postnatal Late Stage. As long as he had a solid foundation, there would be no problem getting through the first discussion elimination round.

Every now and then, Yang Zhang would glance at Chen Yu, sighing inwardly.

Even though they were both at the Postnatal Late Stage, the gap between him and Chen Yu was significant.

Looking at Situ Lin Yu, Duan Hao, Nie Xuan, and some of the tough upperclassmen, each one seemed abnormally strong.

They showed no signs of discomfort within the Array, and even appeared rather at ease.

“Situ Lin Yu, let’s settle our differences in this competition for new students!” Duan Hao, looking at Situ Lin Yu, was full of fighting spirit.

The other competitors were also observing each other.

Nie Xuan paid special attention to Chen Yu; she had lost to him in their previous confrontation at the Ten Thousand Demon Tower.

Privately, Nie Xuan was determined to defeat Chen Yu during the competition for new students.

“Hmm?”

Chen Yu felt a piercing gaze upon him.

At a glance, he spotted a stern young man with a faint sinister smile on his lips.

“Zhang Nan?”

Chen Yu could hardly recognize him.

At this moment, there was a significant change in Zhang Nan’s aura and character.

“Chen Yu!”

A flash of sharpness appeared in Zhang Nan’s eyes.

Seeing Chen Yu, he couldn’t suppress the murderous intent in his heart and wanted to act.

The pitch-black streams swirling around him suddenly surged, emitting a tyrannical and domineering presence.

The chaotic black flows around his body entwined with the surrounding Evil Demon Qi and began to devour it bit by bit, making Zhang Nan’s aura even more terrible and his demonic intent startling.

“Innate Period!”

Many of the students around were slightly shocked.

“Zhang Nan has actually broken through to the Early Innate Stage!”

“And he’s changed so much from before!”

Many upperclassmen who knew Zhang Nan were also greatly shocked by this development.

At this moment, Zhang Nan instilled a palpable, intangible fear in them.

The students of Devil Wind Institute were surprised by the alarming demonic intent on Zhang Nan.

“Although the demonic intent on this kid is shocking, his sanity has been eroded and twisted!”

“He’s not a student of Devil Wind Institute; he dared to cultivate the Demonic Path rashly and naturally fell into madness easily.”

“How reckless, our students from Bone Cliff Institute, why would they even attempt to cultivate the Demonic Path?”

An instructor from Bone Cliff Institute frowned slightly.

The Demonic Path was a very powerful discipline, but it also came with great risks.

However, upon closer thought, in this year’s competition for new students, Bone Cliff Institute didn’t have any particularly outstanding students. Although Zhang Nan was adversely affected by the Demonic Path, his strong abilities could indeed shed some light on Bone Cliff Institute.

Inside the Array.

“I’ve just broken through, and there hasn’t been much progress with the ‘Yuan Sha Divine Skill’ for a short time!”

Chen Yu pondered in his heart.

In the Demon Bone Wilderness, he had fought against numerous fiercely brutal Postnatal Peak and even Innate Demon Beasts. This had made his Evil Qi very strong, and he had also grasped the true meaning of evil.

Compared to that, the small amount of Evil Qi within the Array did little to aid him.

“That being the case, I will absorb the Demonic Path’s Qi here!”

Chen Yu’s eyes sparkled.

In the Demon Bone Wilderness, he had already sensed the Qi of the Demonic Path.

After advancing to a higher stage, the primordial evil True Qi sphere absorbed the Evil Qi of heaven and earth and also drew in the nearby astounding Demonic Qi.

It could be said that Chen Yu had also embarked on the path of the Demonic Path.

Boom!

A strong demonic intent burst forth from Chen Yu.

He released his defenses, allowing the surrounding domineering Evil Qi to enter his body and mental realm.

“What’s going on?”

Yang Zhang, who was nearby, was taken aback by the overbearing and powerful force next to him.

“Chen Yu has entered the Demonic Path?”

“He hadn’t cultivated the Demonic Path before; it seems he took this route after entering the Demon Bone Wilderness. However, without a cultivation technique and a teacher’s guidance, it’s too risky!”

Among the new students of Blood Slaughter Institute, besides surprise, there was more concern.

In the loft.

Liu Xuanzong’s expression became slightly stern.

Cultivating the Demonic Path recklessly was definitely an irrational choice, as shown by Zhang Nan’s precedent.

“Students from Blood Slaughter Institute have actually taken up the Demonic Path? I wonder if the teachers there can instruct him properly?”

Mr. Xu, from Devil Wind Institute, could not help but smile when he saw this.

“Old Liu, Chen Yu has a good aptitude and potential, you mustn’t let him stray off course!”

An instructor remarked.

Liu Xuanzong resolved that after the competition ended, he would definitely caution Chen Yu.

Time slowly passed, and soon the elimination round was about to end.

But inside the Array, the pressure of various auras intensified once again.

“Ugh!”

A student spat out a mouthful of black blood and fainted.

The person in charge immediately rushed in and dragged him out.

“Hmph, what can this mere Array do to me!”

With a low shout, Zhang Nan’s body erupted with demonic intent, voraciously devouring the Demonic Qi between heaven and earth.

On the other side, Chen Yu’s demonic intent grew stronger and stronger!

Many demonic auras had integrated into his primordial evil True Qi, allowing for rapid absorption.

Furthermore, Chen Yu’s spiritual power was strong enough to withstand it, refined by the “Heavenly Heart Refining” and cleansed by Moon Spirit Mother Ore, and was unshakably firm.

However, in the eyes of the teachers and instructors, these two who had mid-way switched to the Demonic Path were already twisted in nature, and their actions seemed somewhat mad.

Aside from these two, another person in the Array absorbed Demonic Qi with a force far exceeding Chen Yu’s, second only to Zhang Nan.

This person was clad in black armor and had a strange demonic pattern on their face.

“Last year, during the competition, Cao Zhongtian broke through to the Early Innate Stage. With his current strength, securing first place shouldn’t be a problem!”

Mr. Xu from Devil Wind Institute said with a smile.

Cao Zhongtian was indeed his student from Devil Wind Institute, having broken through to the Early Innate Stage just before last year’s competition and ranking third.

This year’s Freshmen Grand Competition, Cao Zhongtian was exactly twenty-four years old and once again participating in the contest.

Moreover, Cao Zhongtian was also a member of the ten great Ancient Clans.

“After all, Cao Zhongtian is a returning student. He made it into the top three in the last Grand Competition. This year, although the freshmen are impressive, presumably only one or two can manage to fight him on equal footing!”

One of the instructors agreed with Mr. Xu’s point of view.

“That may not necessarily be the case!”

An instructor from the Evil Spirit Institute replied with a light chuckle, offering no further explanation.

Time passed, and students were continuously eliminated.

Soon, thirty minutes had passed.

Inside the array, only a little over one hundred and twenty people remained.

The elimination round had directly eliminated over seven hundred people, making it the most brutal elimination in over a decade.

“The first round of eliminations has ended. What follows is the second round, where we will select the top twenty from among you over one hundred and twenty!”

The Black-armored Middle-aged Man announced loudly.

The previous event had directly eliminated over seven hundred people.

And this time, the top twenty were to be directly chosen!

Such a ruthless method of competition was unprecedented in the history of No Demon Academy.

“This method is too cruel, and it’s also unfair!”

Many students also felt it was inappropriate, as there had never been such a precedent.

Selecting the top twenty directly meant that beyond the twentieth place, there would be no ranking!

At the loft.

“Hearing that competition at No Demon Academy is fierce, witnessing it today proves that it truly is quite harsh!”

The Cloud Robed Elder said with a faint smile.

However, everyone present could tell that the Cloud Robed Elder was insinuating that No Demon Academy was akin to an evil path, employing cruel methods.

“Only the names of the strong are worthy of being remembered. The weak need no ranking, for it would only be an insult!”

An Elderly Dean said flatly.

Yet his voice sounded like thunder, reverberating at the very summit of Heavenly Demon Peak.

His words seemed to penetrate the soul, striking at the heart, and caused the students to reflect deeply.

The weak need no ranking!

To be remembered, one must become strong!

“Nicely said.”

Duan Hao sneered coldly.

“Indeed it is.”

Situ Lin Yu said with a smile.

At that moment, whether it was the eliminated students or the remaining one hundred and twenty plus, none continued to object.

“The stone platforms, rise!”

The Black-armored Middle-aged Man suddenly shouted.

Rumble~

The ground beneath the feet of those one hundred and twenty people began to tremble once again.

Suddenly, a huge stone platform shot up from the ground.

Immediately afterward, a second, a third… the twentieth stone platform surged upwards in succession.

Twenty stone platforms formed a massive circle, with the remaining one hundred and twenty-plus people in the center.

“Each stone platform represents a spot in the top twenty. The second round of the competitive battle officially begins!”

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the one hundred and twenty-plus people present changed.

The second round of contests was even more brutal than they had imagined!

As the judge’s words fell.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

Almost all figures soared into the sky, vying for one of the top twenty positions.

“Get lost!”

Hu Chong, a senior from Blood Slaughter Peak, burst upwards with his massive body, emitting a heaven-shocking Evil Qi.

Bang!

A Postnatal Middle Stage student was directly knocked flying dozens of yards away.

“So domineering!”

“In the last Freshmen Grand Competition, Hu Chong was ranked tenth. He has already broken through to the Innate stage, and I believe he has a chance to break into the top three this year!”

Among the crowd.

“Hehe, the format of this competition is exactly to my liking!”

Cao Zhongtian chuckled evilly.

Boom!

A terrifying aura suddenly erupted, as Cao Zhongtian transformed into a dark evil demon, becoming a shadow that shot straight into the sky.

Many students were directly repelled by his formidable aura.

Thump~

Cao Zhongtian landed squarely on a stone platform, his pitch-black and indifferent pupils looking down from above.

At this moment, many students brought out their trump cards to contest for one of those twenty positions.

Unknowingly, Situ Lin Yu had already ascended one of the stone platforms.

“This one is mine!”

Chen Yu’s gaze landed on the nearest stone platform.

Boom!

He turned into a whirlwind of Evil Qi, rushing towards it at great speed.

“Scram!”

A Postnatal Late Stage chubby youth, waving his huge palm, tried to block Chen Yu.

“It’s you who will roll!”

Chen Yu’s expression hardened, he circulated his True Qi, and fiercely smashed his fist forward.

This punch didn’t use the overwhelming power of the Primordial Evil True Qi; even so, it was still sufficient against this chubby youth.

Bang!

The chubby youth suddenly felt as if his palm had struck a barbed steel plate, the pain intense.

Chen Yu’s punching arm gained strength.

Bang!

The chubby youth was immediately knocked back, his figure unsteady as he rolled on the ground almost thirty yards like a ball.

“Telling you to roll and you really did – how polite of you!”

Chen Yu laughed heartily and with a burst of speed, mounted the stone platform.

Less than a moment after Chen Yu ascended, all twenty stone platforms were occupied.

“Now, each of you has two opportunities to challenge any one of these twenty. If you win, you take their place. If both attempts fail, you are eliminated!”

The Black-armored Middle-aged Man announced the final rule for the second round.
