Chapter 596
In the first battle, Ye Chu defeated his opponent in ten moves, the opponent losing beneath Ye Chu’s Silent Sword pointed at the throat!
In the second battle, another King, Ye Chu defeated the opponent in ten moves, losing beneath the Silent Sword pointed at the throat!
In the third battle, a King, Ye Chu defeated the opponent in ten moves, losing beneath the Silent Sword pointed at the throat!
In the fourth battle, a Second Level King, Ye Chu defeated the opponent in ten moves, losing beneath the Silent Sword pointed at the throat!
In the fifth battle, a King, still defeating the opponent in ten moves, losing beneath the Silent Sword pointed at the throat!
…
Five consecutive battles, without exception, Ye Chu defeated his opponents with nearly identical moves. This made everyone frown, their hearts stunned. No one had expected such a result.
Everyone had guessed Ye Chu could defeat these people, but they had not expected it to be in this manner. This result was too shocking.
Defeating five people was nothing to fear, but defeating five people using the same method and the same moves, that was simply too astonishing.
Dragonfly and the others also looked at Ye Chu in surprise. Naturally they could achieve this scene too. But they relied on their exquisite Sha Spirit Arts. Ye Chu was different. His moves were not remarkable at all, just ordinary moves. Only Ye Chu’s ordinary moves were extremely exquisite, as if every move had undergone countless temperings.
“Could it be he has experienced countless baptisms of bloody battles? Otherwise how could he temper his moves to such a degree? Every time he burst forth, it was incomparably fierce.”
Dragonfly felt puzzled. His gaze looked at Ye Chu, and he saw Ye Chu’s gaze was also looking at him. Dragonfly nodded.
“First battle’s Senior Brother Tu Fang, your silk-transforming Sha Spirit Art is not bad. Please leave it behind.”
Tu Fang accepted the bet and admitted defeat, also very straightforward. He tossed down a book, “This is Transforming Spirit into Silk. Among Sha Spirit Arts, it belongs to the lower-middle grade. Since you want it, it is yours.”
Ye Chu took the book, smiled, and said nothing. His gaze looked at the others and said, “Next round.”
Everyone exchanged glances. No one stepped forward again. This lad was too strange. They admitted they were not his match.
Dragonfly frowned upon seeing this and said, “Today’s competition also yields Merit, its value not much less than a jin of Purple Gold Liquid. Most importantly, you have been working behind closed doors. Now you have such a great opportunity to exchange blows. Not making good use of it would be too regrettable.”
Hearing Dragonfly say this, someone finally jumped out, cupped his hands to Ye Chu, and suddenly attacked Ye Chu. His Sha Spirit Art burst forth, and the moment he struck it was an unbroken stream of attacks, overwhelmingly powerful.
Ye Chu’s expression did not change. He still used the Silent Sword to resist. As the Silent Sword burst forth, in the end Ye Chu did not conceal it either. It cut through the void leaving traces one after another, the sound of breaking air continuous.
The force Ye Chu burst forth forced his opponent to retreat repeatedly. Even using his strongest Sha Spirit Art he could hardly resist. After blocking Ye Chu’s nine moves, he finally lost again.
Ye Chu still followed the old rule, using ten moves as the limit, shaking back one cultivator after another.
Every time Ye Chu defeated one, these cultivators’ expressions changed. Their hearts were terrified by Ye Chu’s strength. Their gazes could not help but look at Dragonfly, but Dragonfly and the others sat there without the slightest intention of making a move. This made them grit their teeth and go up.
Fortunately, there was Merit to be gained, so they were willing. Although they clearly knew they would be defeated by Ye Chu, when the number of people defeated by Ye Chu grew, they no longer felt it was shameful.
Ye Chu defeated another ten people in succession, obtaining the Fire Flame Art and Flowing Water Art, two Sha Spirit Arts.
This made many people stare blankly at Ye Chu. Ye Chu had defeated fifteen people. Yet his aura was still vigorous, without the slightest trend of exhaustion. This made their hearts even more fearful.
Dragonfly and the others also exchanged glances, shocked at Ye Chu’s vigorous aura.
Already fifteen had been defeated. Although their Sha Spirit Pavilion had no lack of disciples, the Blue Jade generation had fewer than a hundred. If this continued, would Ye Chu sweep through their Blue Jade generation disciples?
Dragonfly swept his gaze over the disciples filling the entire hall, wondering whether to let non-Blue Jade generation disciples form a great array to oppose Ye Chu. But thinking about it, Dragonfly also found it amusing.
If they really had to rely on a group attack to fight Ye Chu, even if they won it would not mean much.
Dragonfly nodded to some disciples, indicating they should make their move.
Ye Chu stood there, his clothes fluttering. The whole person stood there outstanding and unique. His gaze looked at the disciple walking up again. This disciple made Ye Chu’s expression show some surprise.
The moment he came up, he burst forth with his Sha Spirit Art, first making his own defence absolutely solid. Then again he burst forth with various powers, his force thick and terrifying, an unbroken stream cooperating with the power of Sha, extremely heart-palpitating, much stronger than the previous Blue Jade generation disciples.
“Somewhat interesting.” Ye Chu laughed. His figure flashed and pounced up. This time Ye Chu no longer used ten moves as the limit, but rather pounced up with terrifying and surging force.
Everyone seeing this scene finally took a deep breath. They thought, this fellow has finally changed that previously oppressive tactic. If he had kept fighting like that, they were afraid they could not withstand the pressure in their hearts.
Watching the Sha Spirit practitioner exchanging blows with Ye Chu, they could not help but grow expectant, hoping someone could defeat Ye Chu.
But the result disappointed them again. This senior brother who had some small fame among their Blue Jade generation actually, after receiving fifteen of Ye Chu’s moves, was sent flying vomiting blood by a single strike from Ye Chu.
Looking at the cultivator who smashed into the huge pillar, everyone’s gaze suddenly looked at Ye Chu, their expressions changing.
Previously for fifteen Sha Spirit practitioners, Ye Chu had not injured them. But now a cultivator had been beaten until he vomited blood. With the opponent’s current injuries, he would need to lie down for at least a week. The cultivators who had originally held a carefree, anyway-it’s-just-sparring mentality, their hearts suddenly tightened at this moment. Looking at Ye Chu, they showed a few traces of fear.
Ye Chu swept his gaze over everyone, the corner of his mouth also carrying a few traces of coldness. Previously he had merely been playing with everyone. Did they really think he was easy to bully? After defeating fifteen of them, they actually still sent someone who could not even compare to Huang Long.
“If they are all at this level, then there is no need to continue. You might as well come two at a time.” Ye Chu’s words were not loud, but they exploded in the space.
This sentence made everyone glare at Ye Chu furiously. Ye Chu was too arrogant. One after another they began to curse.
“You merely defeated a few bottom-ranking Blue Jade generation existences. What are you being arrogant about.”
“Hmph. Senior Brother Dragonfly is here. What qualification do you have to speak.”
…
The crowd’s angry shouts did not affect Ye Chu. Ye Chu’s gaze looked at Dragonfly and the others. He said to Dragonfly who sat on the platform, “You wanting to give Sha Spirit Arts and Purple Gold Liquid is very good, but such games become boring when played too much. What? You few do not intend to make a move?”
Ye Chu’s words made everyone’s gazes look at Dragonfly. Their fists clenched tightly, waiting for Dragonfly to make his move.
“Senior Brother Dragonfly, what are you waiting for? Teach this fellow a lesson, fiercely deal with him.”
“Yes. A newcomer, actually so arrogant. Even if he has some strength, he must remember his status.”
