Chapter 503: Chapter 503 Everyone’s Shock
These Array Masters were extrely surprised. The Defensive Array on the stage should have been more than sufficient, even against an attack from a Martial Emperor. Yet now, Xiao Xiao and Ye Qingchen, two cultivators from the Martial King Realm, were causing it to teeter on the brink of collapse. What’s more, this Ye Qingchen was rely at the third level of the Martial King Realm.
Could it be that both of them already possessed combat strength comparable to the Martial Emperor Realm? These Array Masters were reluctant to believe it but could not find a reason to convince themselves otherwise. They chose not to dwell on it and concentrated on reinforcing the stage.
At this mont, the scene on the stage was completely obscured from view below. The onlookers were left with nothing but admiration, having no other words to express their emotions.
In the distance, Ouyang Wuqing watched the battle unfolding on the stage. His initial disdain turned to caution, and as the battle continued, that caution intensified. Perhaps he was also calculating his own odds of victory against such an opponent.
Zi Xing, however, let out a deep sigh. While others might not have been able to see anything clearly, she could perceive so aspects of the battle through her connection with the Fire Spirit Charm Shadow. At this ti, Ye Qingchen, relying on the Fentian Earth Fire, continued to leave afterimages on the stage, evading most of the pervasive flas that seed to seep into every crevice.
I don’t know what a perfected Fire Spirit Charm Shadow is like, but I feel that even at the Grand Completion stage, its speed would likely be just like this. After all, Ye Qingchen is still only at the third level of the Martial King Realm. Can such terrifying speed truly be achieved with just an Earth Rank Movent Technique?
Xue Zhao pouted, feeling greatly dissatisfied. All this ti, I thought I knew the full extent of his strength, since I’d seen his movent technique and the Shadow-extinction Sword Technique before. But now I realize he’s hidden so much from ! Not only can his Shadow-extinction Sword Technique release four streams of Sword Qi, but his movent technique is also this fast. Even though I’ve never sparred with him, judging from the terrifying aura on the stage, his attack power is obviously several tis stronger than it was that day in the ruined temple!
That butt-groping swindler! Scoundrel! The more Xue Zhao thought about it, the angrier she beca, and she couldn’t help but curse Ye Qingchen in her heart. After cursing, however, her curiosity about him was renewed.
Could it be that even now, he still hasn’t used his full strength? The mont this thought appeared, it beca impossible to shake from her mind. Although she was reluctant to believe it herself, the idea only grew stronger.
Roughly ten minutes later, the flas on the stage gradually died down.
By then, Ye Qingchen was panting heavily, but his Willow Wood Martial Soul was rapidly aiding his recovery. Xiao Xiao had also recovered seventy to eighty percent of her strength. However, the bridge of her spiritual power had been severed, making it far from simple to use again.
Xiao Xiao also noticed that Ye Qingchen’s recovery was clearly superior to her own, so even though she was slightly injured, she still launched an attack. After all, if he fully recovers, what chance will I have?
Wielding the Vajra Silk, Xiao Xiao once again moved aggressively toward Ye Qingchen. The Vajra Silk was supple yet firm, and as a low-grade treasure weapon, it wasn’t easy for Ye Qingchen to block.
Just monts ago, Ye Qingchen had been operating his Dual Pupil Martial Soul, pushing the Fire Spirit Charm Shadow to its limit, and continuously swinging his Double Pupil Sword, all while using the Wind Blade Sword Technique to fend off the flas he couldn’t dodge. Under this triple drain on his energy, even soone with a recovery ability as terrifying as his was starting to struggle. Now facing Xiao Xiao’s attack, Ye Qingchen had no choice but to defend once again.
However, he was caught by surprise. Xiao Xiao’s seemingly light Vajra Silk felt as heavy as a mountain when it struck his Double Pupil Sword. This was the first ti he had not used a martial technique to block, and he paid dearly for the oversight. The blow sent him flying to the very edge of the stage, nearly knocking him off completely.
Ye Qingchen had to concentrate fully, constantly using the Wind Blade Sword Technique to handle Xiao Xiao’s attacks.
Ye Qingchen noted its unusual properties. It seems this Vajra Silk of Xiao Xiao’s is more than just a simple low-grade treasure weapon.
With her Vermilion Bird Martial Soul, the overwhelming flas from before were pure nourishnt for Xiao Xiao, so she wasn’t afraid of a battle of attrition. anwhile, with the inexhaustible vitality from his Willow Wood Martial Soul and the mysterious substance emanating from the gray jade dallion in his sea of consciousness, Ye Qingchen was also fearless of anyone when it ca to recovery.
The two were now locked in a contest of endurance, waiting to see who would give in first. After all, both were using Earth Rank Martial Techniques. To onlookers, such techniques would consu a great deal of energy, but in their hands, they were employed as effortlessly as taking a stroll through a garden.
The battle reached a fever pitch. Neither Xiao Xiao nor Ye Qingchen was willing to give an inch, each eager to see where the other’s limit truly lay.
"I’ve never seen a Martial Artist as perfect as Junior Brother Ye," Zi Xing blurted out, her admiration unconcealed as she watched the battle. "He has incredibly high burst power, terrifying speed, an unparalleled recovery ability, and an endless variety of attack techniques. Once he’s fully developed, even the Saint Heirs and Saintesses of the Ancient Clans would probably have to steer clear of him."
Xue Zhao shot Zi Xing a peculiar look. "Sister Zi Xing," she said playfully, "you haven’t fallen for him, have you?"
Xue Zhao’s words startled Zi Xing, and her face turned bright red. Her previous praise had indeed been a bit ambiguous. "Junior Brother Ye and I are both from the Central Celestial Academy," she explained hurriedly. "I’m just happy that the academy has such an outstanding disciple. You’re overthinking things, Sister Xue Zhao. Don’t repeat such nonsense."
Although Zi Xing denied it righteously, her flushed face had already revealed everything.
Xue Zhao feigned a look of sudden understanding. "Oh, I see! In that case, you’ll have to be careful, Sister Zi Xing. Our big brother might look honest, but he already has a fiancée. Plus, his maid, Xiao Xiao, is completely devoted to him. If you have feelings for him, you’ll really have to try hard."
An embarrassed and blushing Zi Xing swatted at Xue Zhao, making her giggle.
anwhile, on the stage, the battle between Ye Qingchen and Xiao Xiao had reached a fever pitch. They repeatedly clashed using Earth Rank Martial Techniques, and the terrifying shockwaves that erupted left the crowd of spectators dumbfounded.
Is this still a battle between those in the Martial King Realm? How can two people be this powerful?!
By now, everyone present had set aside their contempt for Ye Qingchen. The combat power he displayed was simply horrifying.
