Ye Liuyun had a question. The martial practitioner chosen was rather young. Even He Lianxiu seed considerably older than him. What would motivate him to take part in a betrothal contest? In addition, he seed shy and to lack a high degree of cultivation.
Thus, Ye Liuyun was interested in rembering his na, Tong Xin.
"Are you here to freeload like that guy?" The young challenger shouted at him.
With a blush, Tong Xin got up and stated, "I ca because I heard that everyone who registers will get so resources. I'm too weak to fight with you."
He sat right back down after stating his piece.
"Hahaha!" The hall was instantly filled with laughter.
So people laughed at Tong Xin's petty purpose of participating in the contest, while others laughed at the rich, young challenger who eagerly stepped forward, yet no one was willing to fight him.
The young, wealthy challenger was left feeling awkward on stage. Despite the embarrassnt, he still refused to pose a challenge to Ye Liuyun, mainly because he feared his Black Panther.
So, he tried to compel Tong Xin to a duel, "You have to fight today, you have no way to avoid it!"
"But I haven't received any resources, I can't afford to lose," Tong Xin stamred back.
"Quit the chatter!" The wealthy young martial practitioner exclaid as he approached Tong Xin trying to yank him into the ring forcibly.
Tong Xin was startled and instantly released a tal Puppet.
The tal Puppet had a body constructed from various kinds of tal and had always been regarded as the lowest rung of puppets.
First, there was a gasp of shock around the room, followed by a fit of laughter.
The released tal Puppet looked too shabby for a fight!
The challenger snickered while he attempted to crush the puppet into pieces when he sensed no realm energy coming from it.
But the puppet moved with unexpected swiftness. The next second, it punched the wealthy young martial practitioner sending him flying into the air with blood spewing from his mouth.
The scene raised Ye Liuyun's interest and his eyes lightened up.
He'd seen a lot of puppets previously, so he quickly noticed that this one was more exquisitely designed.
With only three Spirit Crystals powering it, the puppet didn't release any energy, presumably attempting to conserve the energy of its Spirit Crystals and maximise the prevention of energy leakage.
This puppet moved far more quickly than the others, suggesting its superior internal structure design.
This was the work of a highly skilled weapon-refining master.
According to Ye Liuyun's assessnt, Tong Xin's Divine Sense was significantly higher than his realm level.
Usually, a weapon-refining master possessed a higher Divine Soul than their peers in the sa realm.
"Could this young man be a weapon-refining master?" wondered Ye LIuyun.
Those who initially laughed at him, no longer laugh now.
With an icy gaze fixed on Tong Xin, the young, wealthy challenger was assisted to his feet by his n.
"Is that all you can do? Fighting with a puppet?" He wiped away the trace of blood on the corner of his mouth, attempting to save himself from embarrassnt.
Tong Xin remarked with an air of apology. "I am nothing but a weapon-refining master. I can't fight directly, so I can only rely on my puppet in battle!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Liuyun wasted no ti and walked up to Tong Xin, asking him. "How about I hire you to refine my weapon? I will pay you double the resources in the contest! I will also provide all the materials you need for forging."
"I'll need to ask my grandfather first," Tong Xin replied to Ye Liuyun.
"Sure, I'll visit him with you once the banquet ends." Ye Liuyun imdiately agreed. He also handed Tong Xin an Interspatial Ring packed with a hundred million Spirit Crystals.
Tong Xin picked it up out of curiosity, examined it, and was startled by what was inside. He hurriedly handed it back to Ye Liuyun.
"I can't accept this. It's too much! I can't take a reward for unrited service!" Tong Xin hurriedly explained.
"Take it as a deposit for the job to refine my weapons," Ye Liuyun persuaded him.
"Even if my grandfather agrees, you will still have to prove your strength! My grandfather prohibits from forging objects for the feeble," Tong Xin replied, his voice tinged with sha.
"Then, should I fight against your puppet?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"Yeah!" Tong Xin nodded in agreent.
"Alright, I'll challenge it then!" Ye Liuyun agreed.
"Not yet, though. This puppet should be fueled by a mid-level Spirit crystal, which I don't have," Tong Xin said, stopping him as he flushed. "The puppet is now being powered by elentary-level Spirit Crystals!"
Without waiting, Ye Liuyun took out three mid-grade Alora Crystal and handed them to Tong Xin: "Switch them out!"
"Are you sure? This will make it very powerful!" Tong Xin reminded Ye Liuyun.
"I'm sure!" Ye Liuyun affird with certainty.
He would spare no effort in his pursuit of Tong Xin's acceptance since he regarded him as a talent.
Nobody could make sense of Ye Liuyun's bizarre behaviour and they all stared in utter perplexion.
"Commander Ye, if you don't mind, I'd like to challenge you!"
Suddenly, Yu Xiaofeng, who previously declined the challenge of the young noble, interjected.
He heard how highly Xiao Yunfang spoke of Ye Liuyun's command on the battlefield and believed that Ye Liuyun was a capable commander. For this reason, he sought Ye Liuyun's attention.
"Oh? Yu Xiaofeng, are you saying you want to challenge or the puppet?" Ye Liuyun asked directly.
"I'd rather challenge you. I can't afford a mid-level Alora Crystal. But if I win you, would you allow to fight against the puppet?" Yu Xiaofeng asked.
"But what if I win?" Ye Liuyun countered.
"You tell ," Yu Xiaofeng replied confidently.
"If I win, you will report to my army," Ye Liuyun proposed.
Despite his disbelief, Yu Xiaofeng respected Ye Liuyun and replied, "Commander Ye, I appreciate your consideration."
With that, he rose to his feet and said to Ye Liuyun, "Let's take this outside. It's too cramped here."
"Agreed!" Ye Liuyun nodded in approval.
"A martial practitioner of elentary third realm, is he worth the attention?" Many individuals had doubts or were unsure of Ye Liuyun's intentions.
However, everyone was excited to watch the fight.
Initially, everyone stayed in their seats and released their Divine Sense to observe their fight outside.
However, when they heard what Ye Liuyun said after he took his stance outside...
"Do you plan to reveal your true cultivation level, or fight as you are now?" Ye Liuyun asked.
"When it cos to a fight, it's only respectful for to go all out!"
Yu Xiaofeng knew that his hidden cultivation had been exposed by Ye Liuyun. Hence, he had no reason to conceal it anymore and revealed his elentary fourth realm.
"First of April, realm!" As soon as they heard this, there was a riot burst in the hallway, and many audiences rushed outside to see their fight.
Soone in the crowd exclaid, "Indeed, he had concealed his power!"
At this mont, the young challenger who had provoked him earlier went dumbfounded.
"I'm lucky he chose to ignore earlier. Or I would be dead! How idiotic was I to pick out one after another strong opponent!"
He Lianxiu, Xuan Yuanling, and others also walked out of the hall, worrying for Ye Liuyun.
Knowing that Ye Liuyun should be able to handle Yu Xiaofeng, Xiao Yunfang stayed composed.
"It seems that the Dark Legion will recruit another incredible warrior!" she was secretly pleased for Ye Liuyun.
"Aren't you worried about Commander Ye?" He Lianqiang approached her and began to chat.
"What is there to worry about? We've faced life and death on the battlefield many tis," replied Xiao Yunfang indifferently.
Seeing Xiao Yunfang's laid-back attitude, Xuan Yuanling wondered if Ye Liuyun could truly defeat a fourth-stage realm martial practitioner.
