Chapter 104: Chapter 104 mory Crystal Ball
Ye Qingchen now fully understood that Li Zongrui had ordered Steward Wang to erase his na from the list.
On the high stage, the participating disciples’ competitions were already in full swing. Watching them, Ye Qingchen cald himself. No matter how much I argue with Li Zongrui and the others, it will be useless. My only hope now is for the Sect Leader to administer justice impartially. With this in mind, Ye Qingchen once again shouted toward the high stage, "This Provisional Alchemist Competition is so unjust, I’d rather not participate at all!"
His outcry once again drew everyone’s attention. The Qingyun Sect elders serving as judges all cast angry glances his way. His words were undoubtedly a slap in the face to the Qingyun Sect.
Li Qingfeng frowned, his gaze falling upon Ye Qingchen.
Upon hearing Ye Qingchen’s shout, Li Zongrui grew furious. Seeing his father’s gaze fall on them made him even more anxious, and he commanded, "Steward Wang, why haven’t you captured this madman for disrupting the venue’s order?!"
Steward Wang nodded. Though reluctant, he couldn’t disobey the Young Sect Master’s command. He extended a large hand to seize Ye Qingchen.
Steward Wang’s strength had already reached the Realm of a Senior Martial Master, far beyond what the current Ye Qingchen could withstand. However, by leveraging the power of his Double Pupils and executing his movent technique with all his might, he just barely managed to dodge the Steward’s clawing attack.
"Hm? You’ve got so skill, kid!" Seeing Ye Qingchen evade his attack, Steward Wang was slightly taken aback. Although he hadn’t used his full strength, it was still surprising that an outer disciple at the second level of the Martial Master Realm could dodge his attack.
However, having already acted, Steward Wang wouldn’t go easy on Ye Qingchen just because he appreciated his talent. He struck again, this ti using his full strength, intending to suppress Ye Qingchen in a single move.
The might of a Senior Martial Master was suffocating, making it hard for Ye Qingchen to breathe. Even with the enhancent from his Double Pupils, the disparity in their Realms was simply too vast. Faced with Steward Wang’s full-powered attack, Ye Qingchen had no way to evade and could only choose to face it head-on. But he also understood that clashing head-on with Steward Wang was undoubtedly like an egg striking a rock.
"Stop!"
With a loud shout, Li Qingfeng flashed in front of Ye Qingchen and effortlessly deflected Steward Wang’s formidable strike with a casual wave of his hand.
"Father, this boy is disrupting the competition and speaking disrespectfully, tarnishing the Qingyun Sect’s reputation! I was just about to have him apprehended. Why did you interfere?" Li Zongrui imdiately protested upon seeing his father intervene.
Li Qingfeng ignored his son, instead turning to Ye Qingchen. "Your na is Ye Qingchen?"
Ye Qingchen nodded, surprised the Sect Leader actually knew his na—the na of a re outer disciple.
Li Qingfeng nodded in satisfaction. The way Ye Qingchen had dodged Steward Wang’s strike proved his combat prowess was impressive. He is indeed worthy of being the one who broke the seal and obtained a Divine-Level Cultivation Technique.
At that mont, Elder Liu Qin walked over, her words dripping with dissatisfaction towards Ye Qingchen. "Sect Leader, this boy has publicly declared our Qingyun Sect unjust in front of so many people. If we don’t deal with him, I fear it will be hard to maintain our authority!"
Elder Liu Qin held an extraordinary status in the Qingyun Sect, and what she said was true. Even though Li Qingfeng was the Sect Leader, he could not simply ignore her words.
"Ye Qingchen, I hope you have a reasonable explanation for . Otherwise, the cri of tarnishing the Sect’s reputation is no small matter," Li Qingfeng said, turning back to the young disciple.
Facing the Sect Leader’s questioning, Ye Qingchen appeared unfazed. He stood tall and answered loudly, "A week ago, I ca here and registered for the Provisional Alchemist Competition. So why has my spot been removed?"
Li Qingfeng’s gaze shifted to Li Zongrui and Steward Wang. Steward Wang hastily replied, "Sect Leader, we have already confird it multiple tis. This Ye Qingchen never registered, so he is not qualified to participate in the Provisional Alchemist Competition."
Li Zongrui chid in, "Father, I think this kid simply forgot to register and is just making a scene."
Li Qingfeng frowned. Although he inwardly believed Ye Qingchen, the situation was a muddle. Without evidence, he couldn’t openly favor him. He spoke to Ye Qingchen again, "Ye Qingchen, you claim to have registered for the competition. Can anyone prove it?"
Ye Qingchen shook his head and replied, "I ca alone to register. No one can testify for ." Although many people had been present that day, they were all strangers. They certainly wouldn’t risk offending the Young Sect Master to stand up and bear witness for .
Hearing this, Li Zongrui couldn’t help but laugh out loud. "Ye Qingchen, you have no proof. On what grounds do you dare claim you registered? And how dare you use that to accuse our Qingyun Sect of being unjust? What are your true intentions?"
Elder Liu Qin added coldly, "For a sect disciple to dare tarnish the sect’s reputation, the cri is punishable by death!"
Li Qingfeng raised a hand, silencing them both. He looked at Ye Qingchen and said, "Ye Qingchen, how can you prove you registered?"
Ye Qingchen glanced at Li Zongrui’s mocking face and gave a cold smirk of his own. "Sect Leader, although no one can testify for , I have a way to prove my innocence. I only hope that once I present my evidence, you will handle this matter with impartiality!"
Li Zongrui said disdainfully, "Stop causing trouble, Ye Qingchen. If you obediently admit your mistake now, I can still ask my father to be lenient with your punishnt. If you remain obstinate, no one will be able to protect you."
Ye Qingchen ignored Li Zongrui’s mockery. He swept a hand over his storage ring, and a shimring Crystal Ball appeared in his hand.
"A mory Crystal Ball?" Seeing the item Ye Qingchen produced, Li Zongrui had a bad premonition. Steward Wang also shot Li Zongrui an uneasy look.
This was sothing Ye Qingchen had prepared in advance. Before coming to register, he had made a special trip to the Sect Main Hall to exchange sect points for this mory Crystal Ball. The sole function of a mory Crystal Ball is to record and store a visual scene, which is revealed when the ball is activated with Spiritual Power. Ye Qingchen knew Li Zongrui wouldn’t let him off easily, so when he registered, he had secretly used the mory Crystal Ball to record the event as a precaution.
He never expected it would actually co in handy today!
