Ye Chen did not know what Xie Zhiqiu was thinking, but even if he did, he would not care. In fact, running into Xie Zhiqiu here was not a big deal to him at all. If Xie Zhiqiu insisted on looking for trouble, then he would have to give him a taste of his own medicine and teach him a lesson.
Right then, the benefit of training the first level of his undying body secret art, 'Flesh Recovery', had finally arrived. His body was obviously sore and numb a second ago, and his meridians were slightly damaged. But in the next second, all these hidden wounds had been healed up completely.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Chen turned around and walked toward Yan Fengfeng and the rest.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Ye."
Yan Fengfeng smiled.
"Luck!" Ye Chen had already seen his ranking.
"Your luck is indeed impressive. Dugu Jue and Dantai Mingyue have been fighting for a long time, and now, you are added to the mix."
Dugu Jue and Dantai Mingyue were known as the twin stars of the Sky Martial Region. Adding Ye Chen, it would be three stars, which would be even more spectacular.
Hai Wuya walked over and said to Ye Chen with his fists held together, "I am the head disciple of the Sky Ocean Martial School, Hai Wuya. I am a good friend of Yan Fengfeng. Brother Ye, let's meet up more often in the future."
Although the Sky Ocean Martial School was not one of the top nine martial schools, it was still a very powerful rank 5 martial school. As the head disciple of the school, Hai Wuya had personally come to befriend Ye Chen, which meant that he had already considered Ye Chen as a very important person.
Ye Chen was not the kind of person who would keep people at arm's length. Since people were trying to befriend him, he had no reason to reject them. Plus, Hai Wuya and Yan Fengfeng seemed to be good friends, so their personalities should be guaranteed. Therefore, the two got to know each other for a while before starting to chat.
"There are countless forbidden places in the True Spirit Continent. Some of them have already been discovered, and some have yet to be discovered. Among these forbidden places, there are some that even Life and Death Realm warriors would have to think twice before going there. There are also some even more terrifying forbidden places that could kill Life and Death Realm warriors. Of course, most of them are forbidden places that are suitable for us to explore. If there is a chance, we can all explore together and try to minimize the danger."
Another benefit of being part of the Genius Faction was that they could explore together. If only one person explored, the benefits would indeed be maximized, but the danger would also be infinitely greater. With more people, they could look out for each other. After all, a dead genius was no longer a genius.
"Definitely!"
Ye Chen did not reply half-heartedly. He had already heard about the dangers of the forbidden places. Not to mention him, who was only a normal Sea of Souls Realm master level warrior, even a famous Sea of Souls Realm master level warrior would face great danger when entering the forbidden places. In comparison, the Blood Demon Battlefield seemed much safer.
"Since the test is over, let's descend the mountain together!"
Yan Fengfeng laughed.
Hearing her, the group of people left the Sky Martial Pavilion and walked down the mountain.
On a hill near the Sky Martial Pavilion, five young men had appeared out of nowhere. They were all at the Sea of Souls Realm, with the lowest being at peak level Early Sea of Souls Realm and the highest being at peak level Mid Sea of Souls Realm. There were two people in the lead. The one on the left was a handsome young man with green hair, wearing a green leather armor and a red cape. The one on the right looked very old, with grey hair and a battle blade on his back. Before he even moved, an invisible blade aura surrounded the area, causing the plants to wither. Right next to the two was a slightly older young man in grey robes. He looked a bit similar to Yuwen Ye and Yuwen Hao, with bulky bones and a very aggressive aura.
"Yuwen Jie, I heard that your Yuwen family had suffered a big loss a couple of months ago. Your nephew Yuwen Ye had not only been robbed of his fiancee, but he had also been wounded badly." The handsome young man had a good relationship with the young man in gray robes, so he did not hold back his words at all.
The young man in gray robes said coldly, "Huh! He is lucky that I ran into him. I will make him kneel down and beg for mercy."
The young man in gray robes was Yuwen Ye's youngest uncle, Yuwen Jie. He was thirty-eight years old this year, and had been traveling around the world for years. Later on, he got together with the handsome young man and joined the latter's faction. Two months ago, he had returned to the Yuwen family and found out about this. He was so mad that his face turned green, and he swore to himself that he would teach Ye Chen a lesson.
As for how the handsome young man found out about this, he did not know either. The two had agreed to meet here, and they had just bumped into each other.
"Alright, you and Lin Ku wait here. I will take my brother disciple to test his potential."
As he spoke, the handsome young man took a step forward, leading the other two toward the Sky Martial Pavilion on the mountain.
On the stairs …
The handsome young man and the other two ran into Ye Chen's group.
"I was wondering who it was! It is Yan Fengfeng from the Phoenix Martial School and Hai Wuya from the Ocean Martial School!"
The handsome young man had recognized Yan Fengfeng and Hai Wuya, so he chuckled.
Hai Wuya frowned, "What a coincidence! Running into the famous Ice Spirit Martial School's Duan Lengya here." The two both had the word 'Lengya' in their names, but they were like fire and water.
"Let's catch up when we have time. Thank you so much for last time."
Duan Lengya was not afraid of Hai Wuya, but Yan Fengfeng was afraid of everyone. Her speed was the number one in the Sea of Souls Realm, and no one would be able to compete with her. Saying that with a bit of pride, Duan Lengya led his brother disciple and walked past Ye Chen's group.
"Huh!"
Hai Wuya's face suddenly turned cold. Last time, he had brought a group of martial geniuses from his faction to find an ancient ruin, which contained a lot of good stuff. He did not expect that Duan Lengya and the rest would follow them and take most of the things. Although he did not like Duan Lengya, he had to admit that the latter's power was slightly higher than his.
"Brother Hai, who is this person?"
Ye Chen did not know much about the martial geniuses in the Sky Martial Region, which was why he asked.
Yan Fengfeng helped Hai Wuya introduce, "This person is the head disciple of the Ice Pavilion, one of the top nine martial schools. People call him Duan Lengya from the Ice Spirit Martial School. Although he is not one of the most famous young warriors, he is just below them. His reputation and power are both very powerful. He had once frozen three hundred miles of river with one palm attack."
Jing Aoxuan and Li Xiaoyun sucked in a breath of cold air. Freezing a three-hundred-mile river with only one palm attack … This kind of power was beyond their imagination. It seemed like they still had a long way to go. At least, compared to those famous martial geniuses in the Sky Martial Region, there was still a huge gap between them.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Hai Wuya was about to say goodbye to Yan Fengfeng and Ye Chen and bring his brother and sister disciples back to the martial school.
"Ye Chen, stay!"
A loud yell was heard, shaking the whole area.
Not far away, a grey shadow flew over and landed on the empty ground a hundred meters away. It was a young man in grey robes with two sword sticks on his back.
Ye Chen turned his head and looked at him.
"His aura is a bit similar to Yuwen Ye and Yuwen Hao. Are you from the Yuwen family?"
Ye Chen knew what was going on immediately.
Although there were a lot of young warriors who came to the Sky Martial Pavilion to take the test, it was already afternoon, and most of the people who came to take the test had already left. There were not many people left. Therefore, once Ye Chen arrived at the foot of the mountain, he was noticed by Yuwen Jie.
"You are from the Yuwen family?" Ye Chen asked.
Yuwen Jie glanced at Hai Wuya and Yan Fengfeng with a bit of fear. Before, he had only noticed Ye Chen, but did not expect that there would be two famous young martial geniuses right next to him. "Indeed! I am Yuwen Ye's uncle, Yuwen Jie. Ye Chen, you are so despicable! How dare you break into our Yuwen family and hurt my nephew! If you do not give me an explanation today, don't even think about leaving!"
"What are you? Stop yelling! "
Hai Wuya was not happy. That gentle temperament of his suddenly changed. With him as the center, the whole world seemed to have turned into a vast ocean, oppressing all of the young warriors who were watching from the side. They all backed out with a shocked expression on their faces. Yuwen Jie, who was in the front, had a pale face as he backed out a couple of steps.
"Hai Wuya, this is between me and Ye Chen. I hope you will not get involved." Yuwen Jie took a deep breath and said with a low voice.
"I will give you three breaths' time. Leave now!"
Hai Wuya did not give him any face at all.
"You!"
Yuwen Jie's expression was extremely bad as he looked at Hai Wuya with hatred.
"Yuwen Jie, what is it?"
Right at that moment, a warrior flew over from the sky. As he moved toward them, a wave of withered blade aura spread out like lightning, splitting apart Hai Wuya's ocean aura. The ground under everyone's feet started to wither and turn black.
"Hai Wuya's aura has combined the profound of water, and this guy's blade aura has combined the profound of withering plants. This is a realm that I have yet to step into."
Ye Chen knew that there was still a big gap between him and the two. The path of martial dao would never have an end, and he had only just started. Either Hai Wuya or this blade artist could easily beat him, and he could tell from their auras.
"Withered Blade School's Lin Ku!"
Hai Wuya's eyes squinted.
The gray-haired teenager glanced at Hai Wuya and Yan Fengfeng before landing on Hai Wuya, "Were you the one who told Yuwen Jie to leave just now?"
"So what if I was?"
"Just because of this sentence of yours, you will have to leave something behind today."
"Hehe, others might be afraid of your Withered Blade School, but I, Hai Wuya, am not. Use whatever tricks you have." Hai Wuya was originally standing up for Ye Chen. Now that the other party was bullying him, how could he back off?
"I have made some progress recently. I will use you as a sacrifice to my blade."
Lin Ku's tone was very calm, carrying a deathly cold killing intent.
Bang!
As the two's auras clashed, a volcanic aura erupted. Under this aura, everyone felt as if they could see the earth's crust cracking open, lava rolling, and a phoenix rising from the ashes. It was Yan Fengfeng. As the head disciple of the Mysterious Martial School, her strength was just as powerful as her reputation.
"Lin Ku, I would like to experience your blade arts."
With a blue flame burning between her brows, Yan Fengfeng walked out step by step. Her noble temperament made people unable to look at her directly. Under her flame-like aura, the ground around her started to smoke, and the scorch became even more intense. Even Lin Ku's blade aura was forced back.
"Phoenix Sect's Yan Fengfeng is indeed worthy of my blade."
The blade on Lin Ku's back pulsed, as if it could be unsheathed at any moment. At the same time, waves of threatening blade Qi spread out, leaving fine blade scars in the void.
"Lin Ku, forget it. I only want to teach that kid named Ye Chen a lesson. It has nothing to do with others." Yuwen Jie knew that it was impossible for Lin Ku to fight one against two. His target was Ye Chen.
Hearing these words, the blade on Lin Ku's back stopped pulsing. He followed Yuwen Jie's gaze and looked at Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, get the hell out here."
