Ye Yuan gave Qin Shao a glance rather surprisedly and said, “You’re different from the rest of the Qin Family! Fine, I promise you. But … I’m not your match right now. Give me three year’s time, you and I will have a fight!”
Chapter 1386. Each Preparing for Battle! |
1386 Each Preparing for Battle!
In the Qin Family’s hall, Qin Nantian father and son were seated on the right-hand side, Qin Shao standing on the left.
“How was it? Did he agree?” Qin Nantian asked in a solemn voice.
He did not have much courteousness towards this branch nephew who obtained the Golden Sword Token.
The high and mighty attitude was clear at a glance.
Qin Nantian could not be blamed either. The Qin Family’s geniuses were seriously too many!
Especially under the cover of Qin Tian’s light, Qin Shao’s achievements were not so dazzling.
“He and I made a three years agreement!” Qin Shao said.
Qin Nantian was first a little surprised, then furrowed his brows and said unhappily, “Why is it three years? In three years’ time, the variables are too great!”
Qin Shao was unhappy in his heart, but in front of Qin Nantian, he still did not dare to be insolent and could only patiently say: “Agreeing to a life-and-death battle must be of both parties’ own accord! He is currently only middle-stage Grotto Profound. Immediately undergoing a life-and-death battle can only be delivering himself to death. He won’t agree to it.”
Qin Nantian frowned and said, “Three years … Could it be that his strength is able to advance by leaps and bounds in these three years and reach an extent where he can contend with you?”
Qin Shao’s strength, he was very clear. It was rare to have rivals among those in the same generation!
Ye Yuan’s performance, they had also all learned about it. In combat strength, he was absolutely far inferior to Qin Shao.
Qin Shao was two minor realms higher than him. Furthermore, his concepts comprehensions were extremely high.
This was virtually an insurmountable gap in Deity Realm.
Three years’ time was merely a snap of a finger to Deity Realm powerhouses. What could Ye Yuan do?
Qin Shao thought about it and said, “I guess that he should be comprehending a kind of martial technique. He’s confident in successfully comprehending it within three years, this should be his reliance!”
Qin Nantian fell into contemplation. Suddenly, he said, “Then, do you have assurance in killing him after three years?”
Qin Shao said with a firm gaze, “Family Head, rest assured. These three years, Qin Shao will definitely go all out and assault the Sword Tomb’s fourth level! After three years, I’ll definitely cut him down beneath my sword!”
Qin Nantian nodded his head and said to Qin Shao, “Good. If you need any resources in these three years, feel free to ask from the family! But this battle must be won!”
Qin Shao cupped his fists and said, “Yes, Family Head!”
“Alright, go back home and take a look at your parents!” Qin Nantian waved his hands and let Qin Shao leave.
After Qin Shao left, Qin Nantian said to Qin Tian, “In your view, how great are Qin Shao’s chances of winning?”
Qin Tian said, “If it were others, with Younger Brother Shao’s strength, there’s no suspense at all. But if the opponent is Ye Yuan, his chances of winning will probably be discounted.”
Qin Nantian’s face fell, and he said, “How so?”
Qin Tian smiled and said, “Father. There is no need to worry. With Younger Brother Shao’s strength, as long as he can pass through the fourth level within three years, the chances of victory are at least above 80%! I’m worried about that Ye Yuan, mainly because he’s somewhat unpredictable!”
Qin Nantian frowned and said, “You’re talking about the incident that happened in the Sword Tomb’s first level?”
Qin Tian said, “Yes! My view is the same as Younger Brother Shao’s. Ye Yuan should be comprehending some kind of powerful martial technique. For him to dare leap realms to challenge, it must be this as the reliance! It’s just that he probably never thought that Younger Brother Shao’s talent is also exceedingly outstanding. Three years’ time is sufficient to let him improve greatly. Presumably, Younger Brother Shao’s dread towards Ye Yuan is even deeper than mine. So these three years’ time, it shall be Younger Brother Shao’s three years of transformation!”
Only after hearing Qin Tian’s analysis did Qin Nantian’s expression ease up slightly.
Qin Shao’s personality, they were very clear with it. He was very eager to outdo others!
Under the stimulation of Ye Yuan’s three years agreement, Qin Shao might burst forth with potential that would make everyone give a sidelong glance.
Even if Qin Shao’s talent was inferior to Ye Yuan’s, a mere three year’s time, he absolutely would not be pulled apart too much!
After all, Qin Shao was two minor realms higher than Ye Yuan.
This disparity was absolutely not what three year’s time could make up for!
…
In Wu Meng Academy, Ye Yuan and Qin Shao’s three years agreement already spread out like the wind.
When Xie Jingyi heard this news, he went to find Ye Yuan straight away.
“Ye Yuan, did you make a mistake? You clearly know that Qin Shao is this season’s top dog, you still dare to agree to his life and death battle?” Xie Jingyi said in exasperation upon seeing Ye Yuan.
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “I dared to agree naturally because I have some assurance.”
“Some? Are you soft in the head?” Xie Jingyi said angrily.
“Huhu, just as Qin Shao said, if I want to rise up, I must get past him, this hurdle! Furthermore, I’ve already not experienced such a battle for very long! His challenge makes me seethe with fighting intent!” Ye Yuan said excitedly.
Ever since coming to the Heavenspan World, Ye Yuan had always shown people an image of a weakling.
On his side, he always needed other people’s protection.
These several dozen years’ time, Ye Yuan virtually had not fought before in the real sense.
Now, he comprehended an extremely profound cultivation method and was also currently comprehending an extremely powerful martial technique.
Qin Shao’s arranged battle ignited Ye Yuan’s desire to fight!
“But you can’t treat your own life as a joke too! If you want to fight, why must you find Qin Shao? He is about to pass the second level right away in the Sword Tomb! Three years later, his strength will reach no idea what realm!” Xie Jingyi said in anger and disappointment.
Ye Yuan looked at Xie Jingyi and said with a smile, “You fatty, still have the mind to worry about me? If I didn’t guess wrongly, your family probably already took some action, right?”
Xie Jingyi’s expression involuntarily choked up, and he said embarrassedly, “How … How did you know? The … The family already cut off all of my resources! These bunch of fellows, really outrageous!”
“Still need to guess this? You poked such a large hole, so it’s already pretty good that they didn’t expel you from the family! However … you have to be careful of that third uncle of yours!” Ye Yuan said.
Xie Jingyi choked up and said, “Third Uncle? He … He shouldn’t have ill-intentions, right? On that day, the reason he did so should also just be because he wanted to save me.”
Ye Yuan said, “It’s always right to be more careful! There are 5 million low-grade divine essence stones in here, you take it and use first. Come find me again when it’s not enough.”
Little Fatty chuckled and said, “Then Lord Fatty, I, won’t be courteous. I know that you’re back by the Myriad Treasure Tower and are a rich man! Today, I’ll live off you, this magnate.”
Seeing Little Fatty’s greedy appearance, Ye Yuan’s expression could not help choking up.
This punk was also too discourteous.
…
From then on,
there were two more lunatics in the Sword Tomb.
One self-abused crazily, one trained in the sword crazily!
The second time entering the Sword Tomb after the three years agreement, Qin Shao made it past the second level and entered the third level!
And Ye Yuan’s cultivation also entered a crazy mode.
Each time he entered the Sword Tomb, he would be covered all over in cuts and bruises before he was willing to come out.
In contrast, Qin Shao’s Sword Dao laws were also soaring rapidly.
Ye Yuan was still the same as before, making himself a mass of bruises and wounds each time before exiting the Sword Tomb.
Then recuperating for a few days and entering again, rinse and repeat like this.
The sword art failed to be completed for a long time, but Ye Yuan was not in a hurry.
He was waiting!
Waiting for the day where water flowed when a channel was formed!
Being tortured for so long, an elementary form already gradually formed in Ye Yuan’s mind.
One day, during the second year, Ye Yuan sat down in the second level again and slowly pulled out a sword.
Chapter 1387. He Flew Over! |
1387 He Flew Over!
“Sure enough, it’s here again!”
Seeing Ye Yuan pull the sword on the light screen, Zhao Qin revealed a look that said it was as expected.
While those students on the Sword Tomb’s second level were all struck senseless at this time.
“What’s going on? Why did those Sword Dao laws all cease activities?”
“Is there a mistake? Could it be that the Sword Tomb’s second level broke?”
“Come on, when I was cultivating to the critical point, it was suddenly gone. Don’t play like this!”
…
Those violent Sword Dao laws in the Sword Tomb’s second level became incomparably docile at this time.
The students currently cultivating lost their opponents all of a sudden. This put them at a loss.
Zhao Qin’s expression turned fearful, hastily rushing into the Sword Tomb’s second level like an arrow.
“The second level’s students listen up! Hurry up and evacuate! Otherwise, bear the consequences yourself!” Zhao Qin shouted at the top of his voice.
The last time, Teacher Fan went into and witnessed the might of ten thousand swords launching in unison.
This second level’s power would only be more terrifying.
Once these students set off these swords, the consequences would be too ghastly to imagine.
Those second level’s students were mostly outer-court disciples.
Hearing Zhao Qin’s yell, they did not dare to dawdle, hurriedly withdrawing out.
“What’s wrong, Senior Apprentice Brother Zhao? What in the world happened?”
After the group of students withdrew out, they immediately surrounded Zhao Qin.
Zhao Qin’s face fell, and he said in a cold voice, “Don’t ask so much! Today, this second level is closed! Everyone is forbidden from entering inside, I’ll go and invite Teacher Fan right away!”
Teacher Fan rushed over once more after getting the news. Zhao Qin asked, “Teacher Fan, how … to handle this?”
Teacher Fan was already not as shocked as the first time. He could ascertain that Ye Yuan comprehended something in the Sword Tomb.
Teacher Fan thought about it and said, “Forget it, let him be! Seal off the second level for the time being. Others are not to enter. After Ye Yuan comes out, then let people go in.”
“Yes, Teacher Fan!”
No one would have expected that this closure was a year plus!
“Qin Shao broke through! He passed the fourth level”
“My God, this Qin Shao’s cultivation speed is also too terrifying. This rate of progress doesn’t pale in comparison to the Qin Tian back then in the least!”
“Qin Shao’s talent is still quite a bit worse than Qin Tian’s. But his three years of hard work goes even further beyond than Qin Tian.”
…
Right on the eve of the three years agreement, Qin Shao, who had always been risking his life and cultivating, finally cleared the Sword Tomb’s fourth level!
The fourth level was a dividing chasm, because the fifth level’s Sword Dao laws were all Sword Dao second-layered heaven, which was also the power of laws corresponding to Heaven Glimpse Realm.
Qin Shao making it past the fourth level indicated that his Sword Dao laws already completely surpassed Sword Dao first-layered heaven!
With his grand completion Grotto Profound Realm plus the power of laws of grand completion Sword Dao first-layered heaven, saying that he swept across those in the same rank was not in the least an exaggeration.
So when Qin Shao walked out of the Sword Tomb, a stir aroused once more.
“Qin Shao he … is already half-step Heaven Glimpse! This … What’s there to compete still?”
“Yeah, this life and death battle, Ye Yuan will die without a doubt!”
“Qin Shao is well-deserving of being this season’s top dog. Just five years’ time and he already touched the threshold of Heaven Glimpse Deity Realm!”
The disparity between each major realm of Divine Dao was too great. For martial artists to want to cross in one step, it was as hard as ascending to heaven.
Once grand completion realm martial artists produced a trace of enlightenment, it would make the realm loosen up once more, the divine sea expand again, reaching half-step Heaven Glimpse Realm from there.
Of course, there were also people who borrowed this trace of enlightenment to ascend to the heavens in one step, directly breaking through a major realm.
But these people were rare.
In these three years, Qin Shao bitterly cultivated Sword Dao and finally produced a trace of understanding, striding out this crucial step.
…
The three years agreement was arriving in a flash. On this day, Wu Meng Academy’s martial arena was booming with popularity.
On the corridors of the grandstand, it was packed full of people, virtually tightly packed until not even water could seep through.
These two people were the most eye-catching two people among the new season’s students.
One was a peerless genius personally conferred the Golden Sword Token by City Lord, His Excellency, becoming an in-name disciple.
While the other was the man of the hour who slew the Qin Family’s lineal descent daughter and could still be safe and sound.
Qin Shao’s might, everyone was clear.
But up till now, no one had seen Ye Yuan make a move before yet.
How his strength was, nobody knew.
“Who do you guys think will live or die in this fight?”
“Is there still a need to say? Qin Shao’s strength is top-notch among peers to begin with. These three years, his strength improved greatly again. This battle, Ye Yuan is dead for sure.”
“But Ye Yuan isn’t a fool either. Since he agreed, could it be that he has confidence?”
“Heh, what confidence can there be? I feel that he’s too confident, thinking that he can defy the heavens. I heard that he still hasn’t broken through to late-stage Grotto Profound yet. But Qin Shao is already half-step Heaven Glimpse. Could it be that there’s still any suspense to this fight?”
…
Many people were all guessing the outcome of this life and death battle. But the vast majority of the people were pessimistic about Ye Yuan.
Quite a number of people all went to the Sword Tomb’s second level to take a look before, Ye Yuan’s realm still stopped at middle-stage Grotto Profound.
Even if Ye Yuan’s trump card was any more heaven-defying, it was also impossible for a middle-stage Grotto Profound to defeat the half-step Heaven Glimpse Qin Shao!
Let alone that Qin Shao’s Sword Dao laws were already grand completion first-layered heaven!
At this time, several figures slowly walked out on the grandstand. One look an
d everyone knew they were extremely powerful people.
“It’s the Qin Family’s Family Head, Qin Nantian! Didn’t expect that he actually came in person!”
“Heh, Ye Yuan killed his daughter, he’s here to personally watch Ye Yuan be killed!”
But to Qin Nantian’s side was the Chi Fang whom he had exchanged blows before.
Several Origin Deity Realm teachers in the academy all appeared on the grandstand.
“Chi Fang, you’re also here to watch how Ye Yuan dies?” When Qin Nantian saw Chi Fang, he could not resist poking fun.
Chi Fang laughed when he heard that and said, “Qin Shao is really confident! How do you know that the one who dies isn’t Qin Shao?”
Qin Nantian laughed loudly and said, “Within Grotto Profound Realm, is there still someone capable of winning Qin Shao? If I believe this, do you, Chi Fang, believe it?”
Chi Fang gave a cold snort and stopped talking.
He very much wanted to say he did not believe it, but he really could not say it.
Chi Fang was really unable to understand why Ye Yuan would agree to such an unfair life and death battle.
Could it be that this brat was really tired of living?
He already confirmed that Ye Yuan did not break through to late-stage Grotto Profound.
This battle had no suspense at all!
Qin Nantian smiled coldly and said, “The hour is almost arriving. That punk keeps failing to show up. I’m afraid … he fled in the face of danger, right? Elder Tong, you’re this match’s judge, you’ll have to judge him as losing! Your Law Enforcement Hall shouldn’t be biased, right?”
Elder Tong’s name was Tong Shou. He was one of the key people at the Law Enforcement Hall.
This life and death battle today was managed by him.
According to the rules, once the hour had arrived and one party of the life and death battle did not arrive, it was regarded as automatically admitting defeat.
Their Law Enforcement Hall must carry out the death penalty on the losing party!
Tong Shou looked at the time and said, “There are still 7 and a half minutes. If Ye Yuan still doesn’t come, it will be regarded as automatically admitting defeat!”
