"I know that woman, she is the genius disciple that Ice Lake just recruited. Sheâs said to be the best level 1 talent!"
"So itâs her! I remember that day. All of the big three sects wanted to take her, but that guy didnât want to, so they joined a third grade sect in the end."
"Yes, yes, itâs like seeing a flower planted on-"
"Be careful. Although Ice Lake is a third grade sect, their power is still very strong."
...
When Ye Mo and Mu Xiaoyun came in, people immediately started talking about them. Ye Mo didnât mind, but Mu Xiaoyun was angry about other people saying that about her husband.
Yu Yuyan, who was about to go up to Ye Mo and scorn him, stopped. She finally understood how Ye Mo had managed to get there. He was relying on that woman of his.
Yu Yuyan sneered. She was about to leave with Shang Qing Sect members when she suddenly thought of something, and her expression didnât look good.
Mu Xiaoyun had gotten here and was Ice Lakeâs level one talent disciple. Then, what about the people Liao Wei had sent? Did he give up after not managing to catch Mu Xiaoyun? Liao Wei wouldnât dare do anything to her due to Shang Qing Mountain. But, what reason did he have to fear Ye Mo and Mu Xiaoyun? Now that she thought about it, things didnât seem to be that simple.
"Martial Sister Yuyan, letâs go a bit forward. Letâs look at how Martial Brother Sima dominates the stage. A newcomer dared challenge our Martial Brother Sima, heâs asking to die!" someone from Shang Qing was sucking up to Yu Yuyan.
"Martial Sister Mu, youâre also here?" The new disciple Fei Qing and the other few disciples had also come to watch the show.
Mu Xiaoyun smiled and nodded.
"Haha! Big Brother Mo, I didnât see you before, but youâre already here!" Liu Lei saw Ye Mo and immediately approached him happily. He was younger than Ye Mo and admired him, so he had changed his way of addressing Ye Mo.
Before Ye Mo could reply, someone sneered on the side, "Youâre about to die yet youâre still this happy. I admire your audacity!"
Liu Lei looked at the person speaking, it was that Pan Cheng from Shang Qing. He sneered at once, "Okay, then letâs fight to death after I fight Sima Ping. Do you have the balls? If you donât have the balls, then donât talk sh*t in front of me."
"Hahaha! You want to fight to death with me?! I want to kill you personally, but you wonât have the chance to face me!" Pan Cheng laughed.
Liu Lei looked coldly at him, "I just asked if you have the balls to accept the challenge. If you donât, p*ss off to the side!"
Pan Cheng suddenly started laughing out loud. He saluted with his fist to the people around and said, "Everyone, this guy thinks he will be able to fight to death with me after fighting Martial Brother Sima. Okay, I, Pan Cheng, agree. But I donât think Martial Brother Sima will give me the pleasure. Hahahaha!"
Liu Lei ignored him and said to Ye Mo, "Big Brother Mo, I heard that everyone is betting that I will lose. Do you want to earn a little fortune?"
Ye Mo smiled. He really wasnât interested in such small amounts. What he needed wasnât gold coins, but spirit herbs and spirit stones.
Suddenly, there was a loud wave of claps. Ye Mo looked up. A man flew onto the stage. His movements were very sleek - he even flipped in mid-air and landed firmly on the stage. Although he looked very ugly, you could feel his power and control.
He was at yellow level peak indeed, and he seemed to be less than 30 years old.
"Iâll go up first. This kid is already too bored of living," Liu Lei said and walked onto the stage slowly. However, his momentum was much worse than Sima Pingâs.
...
Although the scene was very boisterous, the real high-level martial artists rarely came to these events. It was more for lower level disciples and merchants.
"I heard that Mo Ying is friends with Liu Lei," Yun Ziyi said.
"Yes, Young Miss. I saw Mo Ying at Liu Leiâs door. They met in Hang Shui City. Should we go have a look?" Xiao Ling asked.
Yun Ziyi shook her head, "Thereâs nothing to see. Itâs a battle of two mere yellow level disciples. Letâs go back."
Then, Yun Ziyi glanced at Mu Xiaoyun and shook her head again, "What a pity."
...
"The battle begins now!" A black level guard was the judge. It was a very simple job. All he really had to say was âbeginâ. He didnât have to care about what went on in the fight. Regardless of the means used to kill the other person, it didnât matter.
Sima Ping laughed and pulled out his long sword. With his current power, he could reach black level any time. He didnât need to worry about a yellow level middle stage disciple.
"If you call me grandpa three times now and crawl under me, Iâll only cut an arm and a leg," Sima Ping mocked him, "Of course, Iâll have to take your life too."
"Dumb c*nt! Letâs see if you talk sh*t when I take your life!" Liu Lei was already holding his sword ray, and he charged at Sima Pingâs forehead.
He dared to attack frontally? Sima Ping sneered, but his sneer quickly froze. Liu Leiâs attack was too fast. It wasnât something that a yellow level martial artist could do.
Sima Ping was sure that without black level inner qi, one couldnât attack that fast. Not even he could handle a sword that fast. Sima Ping was immediately scared to death.
Instantly Sima Ping felt cold sweat. He only had the time to raise his sword to block it.
Crank- Liu Leiâs curved sword didnât stop at all and hacked straight down. It was no fancy move or technique, it was a simple hack.
But Sima Pingâs sword couldnât even block it a little bit.
When he felt the long sword in his hand lose strength, Sima Ping immediately knew he was over. In a life and death battle, any error could be fatal, and he had made three.
First, he didnât know his opponentâs power. Second, he hadnât taken his enemy seriously.
As if these two werenât fatal enough, the third one was that he hadnât known that his opponentâs weapon was an extreme weapon. His sword hadnât even been able to block it a little.
Sima Ping felt his eyebrows go cold and horror rose from the bottom of his heart. He had lost in one move.
Boundless darkness swept over him. Sima Ping eventually felt his chest being kicked by a huge force as he flew away from the deck and landed in the sea.
This happened in a brief moment. Most people hadnât even adjusted their expressions yet, but the battle was already over.
It had been nothing like everyone had expected, so the whole scene was silent.
The heavily promoted battle had ended in just a moment.
"What- How is this possible-" Pan Cheng murmured. Liu Leiâs roar made him shiver.
"Pan Cheng, itâs your turn now! You said in front of everyone that you will fight me to death. Iâm waiting for you here. Youâre a sect member of Shang Qing Mountain, donât let everyone think that youâre a p*ssy!"
