163 Becoming Famous After One Battle
Bang!
A huge thunder sound came out of nowhere, and a wave of sword qi spread out rapidly.
That sword was unbelievably fast, way out of the headmaster from the Multi Mountain Martial School’s expectation; it landed heavily on his protective zhen qi layer.
Pop!
The protective zhen qi layer had been broken. All of the sudden, blood spilled everywhere.
"You? How could this be?"
The headmaster from the Multi Mountain Martial School said, and pointed at Ye Chen with his finger while spewing blood. He could not believe that he could not even take one sword attack from Ye Chen. Not just unable to handle the sword attack, even his protective zhen qi layer was not able to slow it down. Ye Chen was only an Early Clasping Yuan Realm warrior, even if he was a genius, it was almost impossible for him to lose like this.
While he talked, he vomited out another chunk of blood which was still full of sword qi. He could not help but take few steps back to find his balance; he was not able to fight anymore.
Ye Chen sneered. Yuanheng Ying and Zhuang Fei combined could not handle one sword attack, how could he alone do that? However, this headmaster was indeed powerful, he could somehow survive this deadly sword attack by himself.
"Sword Qi Thunder Sound! Your sword qi could produce thunder sound?! How fast will it have to be for that?"
"He is only an Early Clasping Yuan Realm warrior, how could he perform the sword art into this level? Is it because of his sword intent?"
"It must be. Only with sword intent a warrior could aggressively improve the power, speed and impact of his sword art."
Most of the people in the crowd were masters from different martial institutions. They all had incredible analyzing skill. They had noticed how special that sword attack was the second they saw it. However, the masters who were in the battle were even more surprised.
"This is the highest level of our Sky Cloud Sword Art – Sword Qi Thunder Sound!"
"I am ashamed. I am also training the Sky Cloud Sword Art, but I still haven’t reached the highest level yet. This boy is indeed the rare top genius that could be came across only once every century. So yes! Fighting for him is definitely worth it! Even if it means I might die, it is still my way of contributing to the Sky Cloud Martial School!"
"Yes! This boy is the best hope for the future of our Sky Cloud Martial School! Killing him is like killing the lifeline of our Sky Cloud Martial School, unacceptable!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Ye Chen’s power had inspired a lot of the masters from the Sky Cloud Martial School. Their aura suddenly expended drastically, and their fighting power was even two times stronger, which had reached beyond their limitation.
"Not good! Their aura had increased, and ours is going to be oppressed! We cannot let them take the initiative! " The battle before was definitely in the masters from the Multi Mountain Martial School’s advantage. However, in the blink of an eye, the tables had turned. Everything was so overwhelming all of a sudden which was definitely not expected by those from the Multi Mountain Martial School.
"It is because of that little brat called Ye Chen, you lot go kill him!"
"If we don’t kill this brat, he will become a huge threat to everyone."
The inner masters from the Multi Mountain Martial School had only one more master than the Sky Cloud Martial School’s side, so they were quite occupied. Therefore, a few powerful outer masters were sent to kill Ye Chen.
"Despicable!"
The fourth master blew away two inner masters from the Multi Mountain Martial School using his spear, preparing to help Ye Chen.
"Where are you going?"
With the help of his low rank great spear, his power was just below the headmaster. Right then, an even more powerful inner master from the Multi Mountain Martial School blocked his way, while the others were still battling against each other. The desert within the ten meter radius had suddenly become chaotic, with different kind of qi shooting out in different directions.
"He is finally famous now." The Monster Childe Leng Wuqing smiled. The disciple from the Evil Monster Martial School who was standing right next to him was a bit confused; he had no idea what had happened to his brother disciple who was normally extremely cold.
Indeed, after this battle, Ye Chen will be so famous in the Nine Nations. After a while, his name might even spread to the other nations in the north rudra regions. Wounding the head master from Multi Mountain Martial School badly with only one sword attack is something that even some of the Hidden Dragon Rank warriors could not do. And before this, Ye Chen was only a nameless brat that no one cared about.
Liu Wuxiang and Ji Xueyan had their eyes aggressively widened. The growing speed of Ye Chen had made them feel powerless once again. Is this so called "unstoppable hidden talent"? But isn’t it a bit too powerful?
Facing the three outer masters from the Multi Mountain Martial School who had just surrounded him, Ye Chen did not move at all, he said with a loud voice: "Three of you are not enough. You will not last one attack."
"Rude!"
"Arrogant!"
"Today, I will make you bleed!"
The three were furious. They were not much weaker than the headmaster from the Sky Cloud Martial School. Combining the three of them, it should not be hard to kill Ye Chen. Right then, as they were being humiliated, their killing intent and zhen qi could not hold back any longer. It exploded to its maximum, bringing up countless waves of sands, which looked extremely horrifying.
"Mountain Break Spell!"
"Shadow Cut Ten Blade!"
"Inborn Qi Art!"
The three all had trained different powerful martial arts. Along with waves of qi and blade power, they attacked towards Ye Chen. The surface of the sand was carved with horrifying marks all of the sudden.
Ye Chen was never someone only following the rules, he always added his own stuff in a lot of his sword movements. And this sword movement was originally using the sword qi and twisting it into a tornado in order to kill its opponent. But he had to put himself into it, standing right in the center of the tornado, which was indeed the most peaceful place.
With the sand tornado around him, Ye Chen had a natural protective layer. Along with the sand tornado, he spread out waves of sword qi, attacking the three.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The sword qi was everywhere. What was scarier was that the sword qi had been increased in its speed, but at the same it had not only an unpredictable angle, but also a horrifying power.
Ah!
One of the outer master was not as careful, and his arm was cut off by one of the sword qi. He could not help but started yelling.
"Back out immediately!"
"Back out!"
The attack from the other two had also been blocked, so they hurried to escape.
The crowd was already immune to a scene like this; they did not know how to describe their emotions anymore.
Someone of them sighed with emotion: "This guy is so unpredictable, he literally does whatever he wants. He will definitely become someone huge, but of course, he would have to still be alive until then."
"The top fifty or the top thirty martial disciples from the Hidden Dragon Rank had already all grown up, and are no longer afraid of the old generation. Give this boy a little more time, and he can probably get there too."
"Don’t jump to the conclusion yet. Once reaching the Clasping Yuan Realm, it would be harder and harder to make any more progress. Rarely anyone is able to make a huge progress, unless for a huge miracle or inspiration."
"You are right. The Heave Dream Battle Palace was barely considered as an open chance. Otherwise, it would not be that easy to reach the Clasping Yuan Realm."
On this true continent of spirits, the land seemed limitless. No one knew how big exactly it was. The population counted in billions. Even if there was only one martial genius from ten million people, then there would still be millions of martial geniuses out there. Not all of those geniuses could be someone significant over their lifespans. Once they used up all their potentials, they would have to take their time and actually train by themselves. However, the path for a warrior was not an easy way. The time would not wait for anyone. Once one had accumulated enough but the time had already ran out, then there was nothing one could do nothing but curse one’s own luck.
However, there was almost someone who had endless opportunities, having a great chance before he or she ran out of their potential, and increasing their power drastically. In one day, they could achieve what normal people would achieve in one hundred days. They would become one of the greatest warriors, standing on the top of the world. For example, the Mysterious Queen, who was one of the top warriors, she had reached the Life or Death Challenging Realm when she was thirty-five. And she eventually became the top warriors on this land, right at the same rank as the Surreal King, Dragon King, the Evil King and the others. They all had thousands years of life, the ability to be reborn from their flesh or even a drop of their blood, which made them almost impossible to kill.
Therefore, opportunities were one of the most important things to become a great warrior. There was barely anyone who had made it to the top without any opportunities. If there was someone like that, then he was a great chance in himself, full of limitless potential.
"Limitless Fierce Cloud!" "Shapeless Fierce Cloud!" "The Sword of Fleetness!" "…"
Ye Chen performed the sword movements from his Sky Cloud Sword Art one by one. Those fearless outer masters from the Multi Mountain Martial School had to keep backing out, as blood spilled everywhere.
At the critical moment when the three were about to be killed, one of them took out a dark red iron pellet from his storage ring. A scary look appeared on his face.
"So despicable! Not only are they trying to win with numbers, now the Red Light Fire Melting Pellet?"
"They have ruined the Multi Mountain Martial School’s reputation."
"This boy is in great danger right now. The Red Light Fire Melting Pellet could kill a normal Peak Early Clasping Yuan Realm warrior instantly, and even a Mid Clasping Yuan Realm warrior would be badly wounded by it."
"Once badly wounded, they would surely be critical."
A lot of martial masters did not approve of what that outer master had done, but they did not think Ye Chen would be killed by that pellet. Every genius had a life-saving last escape plan. However, that was part of the problem. Once being wounded by that pellet, the situation would change drastically.
"Die!"
This outer master from the Multi Mountain Martial School looked extremely dangerous right then. He pushed his zhen qi into the pellet and threw it towards Ye Chen.
Boom!
An unbearable fire light exploded, spreading out across the whole area. Even with Ye Chen’s inhuman speed, he was still not able to avoid the light completely. The edge of the explosion still touched his body, and he was completely blown away.
"Brother Ye!"
Zhu Mei and the rest two were shocked.
Everyone including the fourth master looked extremely pale.
Swoosh!
Gently landing on the desert, Ye Chen smiled lightly, "Is that all you got? Then you will all have to die."
"What? He was not hurt at all?!"
"How is that possible? The Red Light Fire Melting Pellet is made of fire Yuan Qi from the first stage of the Shocking Sky Art. Although its power was not as strong as the real martial art, but it is still quite impossible to walk away without being wounded."
The outer master who threw out the pellet could not believe his eyes, he said to the two masters right next to him: "We were given one pellet each. No point saving it now. Let’s throw them all out and kill him!"
Within the nine nations, the Multi Mountain Martial School and few other martial institutions had found some ancient ruins. There were quite a lot of Red Light Fire Melting Pellets in there, which were divided amongst them. However, there was no way of knowing its production method, so it was almost impossible even for an Astral Reaching Realm warrior to make one. Therefore, every pellet used was one pellet less.
If it was not for the purpose of guiding the great disciples to the Heaven Dream Battle Palace, there was no way for them to get one each, since it was almost all they had. The martial institution had warned them not to use it unless it was absolute emergency so that they could be saved for other purposes.
"Okay! I don’t believe he could survive this!"
They already had no reputation left, so all they could think of was how to kill Ye Chen.
Boom! Boom!
Two more explosion sounds were heard. The fire overlaid each other, which spread out even more.
Ye Chen performed the Crane Shadow Step Art and avoided the center of the explosion. He was only hit by the after wave. Right then, a zhen qi layer suddenly brightened around Ye Chen like crystal.
Pop!
The zhen qi layer started to transform, and the horrifying explosion power had bounced Ye Chen out.
"A normal zhen qi layer definitely is not able to react in such ways. And it does not look like a defensive art."
"Is it a low rank great armor?!"
"That is very likely. The low rank armor is quite rare among the low rank great weaponry. Although it could not increase the user’s defensive power, but the slightest amount counts. And he did not get hit by the Red Light Fire Melting Pellet directly, only the after wave, that is why he was not hurt at all."
There were a lot of experienced people in the crowd. They had guessed that Ye Chen had worn a low rank great armor which was able to increase his defense.
A huge thunder sound came out of nowhere, and a wave of sword qi spread out rapidly.
That sword was unbelievably fast, way out of the headmaster from the Multi Mountain Martial School’s expectation; it landed heavily on his protective zhen qi layer.
