Standing in the middle of the battling platform, Ye Chen's body was like an unsheathed sharp sword.
"This guy is really scary. If beating Huang Bingwen proved how powerful he is, then beating the genius Zhang Haoran only proves that he is a freak."
"That's right, it's not scary for a genius to challenge someone with a higher cultivation than him. What's scary is that the one who is defeated is also a genius, just like when someone challenged the head disciple."
"That's impossible. Among the younger generation of the Windy Nation, no one can challenge the head disciple."
"I'm just giving an example!"
Kneeling on the ground with one knee, Zhang Haoran held his broken right arm with his left hand and raised his head. His lips were covered in blood and slid down to his chin. He said viciously: "No one can beat me, Zhang Haoran, not even you. Ye Chen, wait for me, you have to become an inner disciple in five months, then I will challenge you again."
Everyone shook their heads. Ye Chen could already beat you when he was only at the Mortal Realm Stage 9. When he becomes an inner disciple, would you still have a chance?
Ye Chen admired Zhang Haoran a little. Although he was arrogant and thought that no one could compete with him, his fighting spirit was amazing. He never knew when to retreat. Huang Bingwen, on the other hand, was much worse. Once he lost, he would hide in the crowd. Maybe he was planning something bad behind the scenes. With this kind of personality, it would be hard for him to achieve anything great.
"Alright, I will give you a chance to challenge me, and in five months, I will definitely become an inner disciple." Facing someone with fighting spirit, Ye Chen did not say anything sarcastic.
Standing up unsteadily, Zhang Haoran looked deeply at Ye Chen, "You are very powerful. I, Zhang Haoran, did not feel bad losing to you. But if you want me to submit to you, that is impossible."
After saying that, he walked off the stage with determination.
"Wow, such a proud character, not bad!" The battling platform was surrounded by stands for the audience. They went up step by step until they reached a height of six meters. On the edge of the stage, a young man in green was waving a fan in his hand, looking relaxed.
On the side, the young man with the iron sword in his arms said lightly, "Reaching the Condensing Reality Realm at the age of thirteen, he should be in the top five of the Sky Cloud Martial School in the past ten years."
The green-clothed youth nodded, "When he grows up, he will be our opponent. As for the other one, I'm very curious as to why he has such great strength. Even the core disciple Xu Jing can't compare to him."
"He is nothing to worry about. After reaching the Condensing Reality Realm, physical strength will no longer be able to determine the outcome of a battle. But his defense is a bit tricky, and I have never seen it before."
"Everyone has their own secrets. Didn't you also obtain a sword art in the Ghost Weeping Forest?" The green-clothed youth smiled and said, "Let's go! We're too relaxed. "
The sword-wielding youth nodded and left the Martial Arts Square with the green-robed youth.
If someone saw these two, they would definitely recognize them. The sword-wielding youth was one of the top ten inner disciples of the Sky Cloud Martial School. His name was Li Kuang. His sword art could even make ghosts worry, and he was known as the Ghost Sword in the northern part of the Windy Nation. The green-clothed youth was called Pei Shaoqing, and he was ranked even higher than Li Kuang. Although he was young, he had a friendly attitude.
The two had just returned from a school mission. They saw a lot of people on the Martial Arts Square, so they came to have a look. They didn't come to watch the battle.
On the way back, Wu Zongming looked at Ye Chen strangely, "Ye Chen, you've improved so much! You've left me far behind. "
Ye Chen couldn't explain what had happened to him, so he said, "Improved a lot? I don't feel anything. "
"Think about it, when you were in the Mu Ren Gang, you were only at Mortal Realm Stage 6. Now you are at Mortal Realm Stage 9, and not just any ordinary Mortal Realm Stage 9. When you reach the Condensing Reality Realm, who knows what kind of monster you will become."
"Eh, maybe I've been enlightened all of a sudden!"
Hearing this, Wu Zongming nodded unexpectedly, "You're right. Some people are mediocre in the beginning, but suddenly rise in the middle. You might be one of them."
Ye Chen was speechless.
…
As the days passed, Ye Chen was not as high-profile as everyone thought he would be. Instead, he stayed in his house all day. Even when he went out, he would go to his training spot – the cliff.
During this time, Zhang Haoran and Wu Zongming had officially become inner disciples.
Every inner disciple had a special tag on their waist. On the back of the tag was their name. With it, they could freely enter and exit the Martial Skill Pavilion, read the top rank Mortal Realm manuals, accept missions from the school, travel around the martial world, and build their own business and reputation.
Of course, there was a certain amount of danger in the Jianghu. In the past ten years of the Sky Cloud Martial School, countless inner disciples had died. Some were ambushed by the Jianghu, some were killed by the martial artists of the underworld, some were killed by the disciples of other martial schools, and some had completely disappeared, no one knew if they were alive or dead.
Even so, the leaders of the Sky Cloud Martial School did not take any measures to reduce the number of inner disciples who died. To them, no matter how beautiful the flowers in the greenhouse were, they would not be able to withstand the wind and rain. Only by letting them travel the martial world would they be able to grow up and build a solid foundation for the future.
However, Zhang Haoran and Wu Zongming did not need to do any missions for now. Within half a year of becoming an inner disciple, the leaders allowed them to focus on training their martial arts. After half a year, they would be able to use the martial world as a grindstone to train their will power and martial arts talent.
While everyone was working hard, Ye Chen worked even harder.
Every day, besides training the third spell of the Pure Jade Body Boosting Spell, he would train with the soul stones.
After Ye Chen had absorbed all the Qi from the blue jade, he did not need to absorb the Jade Qi anymore. What he needed to do was to master the martial art, which made every inch of his body have a connection with each other. Once this connection was established, his defense would be flawless, and he would not have any weaknesses.
Without a doubt, the meat of the strange fish had helped Ye Chen a lot. Otherwise, he would not be able to train the third spell of the Pure Jade Body Boosting Spell to this level in such a short time. Even Early Condensing Reality Realm warriors would not be able to hurt him.
Seeing that he was about to finish the meat of the strange fish, Ye Chen's strength had stopped at twelve thousand pounds. Towards the end, every increase of ten pounds of strength would be ten times more difficult than before. It was almost the limit of his body. If he wanted to continue to increase his strength, he would have to make a breakthrough.
At night, a bright moon was hanging high in the sky.
The bright moonlight shone through the window, making the room look hazy. Outside the window, the shadows of the trees stuck to the ground, which added a sense of serenity to the room.
Ye Chen sat on the bed with his legs crossed, holding a soul stone in each of his hands.
Originally, Ye Chen did not dare to train with two soul stones. Although it would double the speed of increasing his Qi, the huge amount of Yuan Qi from the soul stones would break his meridians and turn him into a useless person. However, since his body condition had been greatly improved, and the third spell of the Pure Jade Body Boosting Spell was almost completed, using one soul stone to train was already a piece of cake. Using two soul stones at the same time was just right.
As the huge amount of Yuan Qi from the soul stones turned into Qi, the Qi whirlpool in Ye Chen's Dantian kept expanding, and finally filled up his Dantian. Fortunately, the Pure Jade Body Boosting Spell could strengthen his Dantian, and the meat of the strange fish had also strengthened his Dantian. Otherwise, it would be very easy for him to have problems.
Whoosh!
The Qi whirlpool suddenly shrunk by thirty percent, and became the same size as before.
Ye Chen opened his eyes, and slowly let out a breath, "Finally, the Peak of Mortal Realm Stage 10. The Condensing Reality Realm is even harder than I thought."
In order to reach the Condensing Reality Realm, one had to liquefy the Qi into Zhen Qi, which was a very difficult process. The further one advanced, the harder it would be to compress the Qi, and there might even be a rebound effect. Compared to other people, Ye Chen's breakthrough was already much easier. The Pure Yuan Art was famous for its purity, and it was easy to control.
However, when it was time to break through to the Condensing Reality Realm, Ye Chen would not be able to continue refining the Yuan Qi from the soul stones. No matter how pure the Yuan Qi was, it would still take some time to merge with the Qi inside the body, which would have a huge side effect on reaching the Condensing Reality Realm.
Standing up and walking to the window, Ye Chen looked out at the night sky, and said to himself: "The Ye Family Meeting will start in half a month, it's time to go home."
