Looking at Chen Yue's extremely cold expression, West felt an uncontrollable rush of coldness pouring out. Suddenly, a strong sense of regret flashed through his mind like lightning. Perhaps, he shouldn't have indulged Kina and should have stopped him earlier.
“Kina, summon your familiar spirit quickly.”
His reminder was too late. The complacent Kina was completely unprepared. Not only him, but others were the same. Even after hearing West's shout, they didn't take it seriously and thought he was being overly cautious.
The unexpected turn of events erupted in an instant.
Suddenly meeting Chen Yue's expressionless eyes, the look in his eyes as if he were looking at a dead man immediately made Kina lose his composure. His thoughts seemed to stop for a moment.
Then, with a loud explosive sound, the solid shipboard was dented deeply by Chen Yue's stomp. Everyone felt a blur before their eyes, and Chen Yue had disappeared from where he was. His speed was so fast that people couldn't react in time.
The two people who were casually standing in the way didn't even have time to raise their hands when they simultaneously felt a heart-wrenching pain in their abdomens. Before their minds could react, their whole bodies were involuntarily thrown to the side.
“Boom.” The whole ship seemed to shake. Chen Yue swiftly crossed a distance of more than ten meters and rushed in front of Kina.
Kina stared blankly at the young man right in front of him, still with a bit of incomprehension on his face. For a moment, he didn't understand what had happened.
In the next moment, a fist landed heavily on his abdomen. Kina was like being hit head-on by a speeding locomotive. His abdomen caved in obviously,and an incomparably powerful force surged up. His whole body flew into the air. While still in mid-air, blood mixed with some fragments of internal organs gushed out of his mouth frantically.
“Bang.” Kina's body crashed into the ceiling. After breaking several wooden boards, his whole body fell heavily to the ground like a deflated ball, lying on the ground with his limbs twitching constantly. Judging from his appearance, he was breathing out more than breathing in.
In less than ten seconds, the battle ended at an outrageously fast speed. Kina didn't even have the chance to summon his familiar spirit, so that no one came to their senses.
It wasn't until Kina fell to the ground in a miserable state that the loud noise made West, who was the strongest among them, wake up first.
“Flame Lion.” With West's angry roar, the cabin suddenly burst into flames. A ball of fire appeared out of thin air, and a giant lion as tall as two floors tore through the flames and walked out.
This familiar spirit was burning with bright red flames all over its body. However, strangely enough, no one in the hall felt the temperature rising, and the ceiling that was only half a meter away from this giant lion didn't show any signs of being burned.
Only a familiar spirit could have such superb control over flames.
“Parr, heal Kina quickly.”
With West's shout, the apostle named Parr immediately woke up. Recalling the scene where his companion beside him was knocked down with one punch, he couldn't help but shudder. The first thing he did after reacting was to take a few hasty steps back. It could be seen how deeply the impression Chen Yue had just left on him was.
Although apostles were powerful, they mainly relied on the combat effectiveness of their familiar spirits. They themselves were not physically strong, only a little better than magicians. A strike like Chen Yue's was enough to make the apostles present shudder just thinking about it.
As if realizing his own weakness, Parr blushed and stopped. He didn't dare to look at Chen Yue again and summoned a familiar spirit that looked like a water ball. Under his control, the water ball continuously split into water masses and flew towards Kina. Soon, Kina's injuries improved and didn't look as terrifying as before.

However, Parr's familiar spirit was obviously not very obedient. The water masses flew around randomly. Only three or four out of every ten could accurately land on Kina. So the healing effect was just passable.
Under its master's order, the Flame Lion stared fixedly at Chen Yue but didn't launch an attack immediately. Obviously, West also had some concerns in his heart and wasn't sure of winning.
Looking indifferently at the listless Kina, Chen Yue didn't continue to attack either.
“Even if you're a high-rank fighter, you've injured a member of the Apostle Association. Aren't you afraid of the Apostle Association's revenge?” West said in an unfriendly tone.
“I'm afraid you can't represent the Apostle Association.” Chen Yue said casually. He glanced at the giant lion. There were two life halos under its feet. Unexpectedly, it was a two-star familiar spirit. This discovery immediately made him vigilant.
Hearing Chen Yue's words, a flash of anger appeared on West's face. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he heard Chen Yue continue: “Also, who told you that I'm a fighter?”
Surprised, not only West, but even the people around also showed disbelief.
They had witnessed the clean and neat battle just now. While feeling extremely frightened in their hearts, they had also determined that Chen Yue was a high-rank fighter. Now hearing Chen Yue deny it, they could hardly believe it.
West didn't believe it either, but seeing that Chen Yue's expression didn't show any sign of lying, doubts immediately filled his mind. Low-rank fighters didn't have the ability to release fighting spirit externally. It couldn't be judged from the appearance. Unconsciously, he looked at Will.
There were three fighters here, but two of them were already lying on the ground unconscious.
“It doesn't seem to be fighting spirit.” Will said hesitantly. At this time, he was extremely grateful in his heart. Although he couldn't be sure, one thing was undeniable, that is, Chen Yue's strength was definitely above his.
Fortunately, he hadn't really had a duel. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shiver and immediately put Chen Yue in the category of people he couldn't afford to offend.
Chen Yue really wasn't lying to them. In fact, even he himself felt a bit unreal. Originally, he hadn't planned to fight hand-to-hand. He just intended to get away from the two fighters blocking his way and then summon his familiar spirit. He knew the weaknesses of apostles very well and would never put himself in danger.
Who would have thought that the result of his dash forward was unexpected. He just used half of his strength, but he flew out like a cannonball. The speed and power were so great that even he almost didn't react in time.
Fortunately, the long-term exercise enabled him to control his suddenly increased power in an instant. The following battle gave him a feeling of thorough enjoyment, and he became even more certain about his decision to keep practicing the “Health Preservation Formula” in his heart.
He knew that every time he broke through a posture, his potential could be developed and his energy and strength would increase greatly. However, he never expected that consecutive breakthroughs in the first level would bring such a big surprise. The two strikes just now had a force of several hundred catties.
This combat effectiveness should be no less than that of a third-rank fighter.
West was also weighing things up vigorously in his heart. Relying on his familiar spirit, he was quite confident. With his talent, how could he not be given powerful items by high-rank apostles? Besides, he still had Will, Parr and others on his side. They might not necessarily lose to the other side.
The only thing to be feared was that the other side claimed not to be a fighter. So, what profession was he? The only variable lay here, which made him feel vaguely uneasy.
Just as he was hesitating, his eyes accidentally swept over the seriously injured Kina. Under Parr's treatment, he had improved a bit and his life was finally saved. However, his extremely miserable appearance immediately aroused his anger.
Even when beating a dog, one should consider its owner. This person completely ignored his and the Apostle Association's face and beat an apostle so easily. If he didn't fight back, where would the entire Apostle Association be placed?
When did the apostles in the Tianye Empire fall to such a state?
No matter how powerful he was, how could he be a match for the extremely powerful Apostle Association? Thinking of this, West no longer hesitated and was about to order Chen Yue to be killed on the spot regardless of everything.
Chen Yue keenly sensed West's murderous intent. His whole body was ready for battle. His left hand had already grasped the blue-striped card. As long as West dared to make a move, he would go all out to deal with this biggest threat at once.
At this moment, a pleasant voice rang out from the direction of the door.
“It's really lively. Chen Yue, West, you two are at loggerheads. What are you trying to do?”
West was stunned.
Parr was also stunned.
Even with their rich imaginations, they never expected to meet that person here.
Seeing the expressions on their faces as if they had seen a ghost, the people around were also very puzzled. However, with their identities and statuses, they naturally wouldn't know who the speaker was.
Chen Yue, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that since she had come out, this battle wouldn't happen.
