After a few breaths, Ye Xiwen spat out a mouthful of turbid Qi. The injuries on his body had almost recovered.
The consequences would've been unimaginable if Ye Mo hadn't intervened in time. In fact, it was hard to imagine that Ye Xiwen wouldn't have been able to fight back against this man.
Even Ye Mo had fallen into a deep sleep in order to help him. Ye Xiwen didn't know when he would wake up!
Ancient Phoenix World!
No matter where this place was, he would go to the Ancient Phoenix World sooner or later, and bring her back!
Feng Ling!
Everything that he had suffered now … sooner or later, he would make him pay back in double!
Ye Xiwen had never felt so helpless before. He didn't have enough strength. He was nothing but a piece of meat on the chopping board, and could be taken away by anyone. He had no choice but to rely on Hua Menghan's sacrifice and Ye Mo's deep sleep in exchange for his survival.
Ye Xiwen had only practiced for the sake of cultivation in the past. But now, he had another goal — the Ancient Phoenix World. He would find this place sooner or later!
Ye Xiwen secretly vowed. He clenched his fists tightly. His fingertips had sunk deep into his flesh, and blood was flowing out.
"Brother, are you alright?" Qi Feifan saw Ye Xiwen's appearance, and asked in a worried tone.
That scene a moment ago hadn't been directed at him. However, he had also survived because of Hua Menghan's sacrifice. So, he was extremely aggrieved in his heart.
However, he didn't want to see Ye Xiwen depressed in any case. Otherwise, Hua Menghan's sacrifice would've been meaningless.
"I'm alright. Let's go!" Ye Xiwen finally opened his mouth. He stood up, and spoke in a dull tone. His expression was frighteningly calm, "It's not safe here. We can't guarantee that Feng Ling won't come back to kill us!"
"En!" Qi Feifan nodded. However, Ye Xiwen's appearance made him even more worried. So, he decided to vent his anger, "Brother, don't be sad. Sister Hua won't be happy if she sees this!"
Ye Xiwen grinned, "It's alright. What Ancient Phoenix World? Sooner or later, I will smash it to pieces, and bring Sister Hua back!"
"Good! This is what a man of my Yi Yuan School should say!" Qi Feifan applauded. He heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Ye Xiwen's words. He knew that the thing he was most worried about hadn't happened.
"Let's go, Senior Brother. Let's return to the academy!" Ye Xiwen had a firm look in his eyes. He would take one step at a time even if the Ancient Phoenix World was above the Ninth Heaven. If the sage realm wasn't enough, then he would advance to the Great Sage realm. If the Great Sage realm wasn't enough, then he would continue. He would turn the Ancient Phoenix World upside down even if it was a dangerous place.
Qi Feifan nodded. He also knew that this place wasn't safe. If Feng Ling really came back to kill them, then they would really be doomed.
They returned to the True Martial University without any delay. They had just returned to the True Martial University when the news of what had happened on that big star had spread to the True Martial University. Three heaven's pride experts and hundreds of elites belonging to different forces had perished. This had shaken the entire True Martial World. The casualties of these young experts weren't enough to shake the entire True Martial World.
After all, they were still young, and didn't count for anything at all. Even if all of them died, it wouldn't really hurt the vitality of the major forces. However, what really shocked them was that these people were looking for the 'Enlightening Mind Ancient Tree'.
This legendary mystical ancient tree had suddenly made countless experts boil with excitement. One could well imagine how their future cultivation would soar if they could obtain the 'Enlightening Mind Ancient Tree'.
The 'Enlightening Mind Ancient Tree', the 'Wind Dragon Treasure', and the 'Taoist rite of the almighty' had stimulated many sage experts of the True Martial World. In fact, many great sage experts had rushed to the Wind Dragon Star because of these three factors. Not only the experts of the Wind Dragon City and several nearby cities had gone there. This had made the already chaotic big star even more chaotic.
Ye Xiwen was somewhat glad that he had left early after he had heard that many sage experts had also gone there. Otherwise, how could he have gotten away?
That big star had become a taboo place for the younger generation after so many sage experts had gone there. The experts of the major forces were running amok there. So, anyone who hadn't reached the sage realm would be sending themselves to their deaths if they went there. Moreover, these people were probably happy to strangle the seedlings of the younger generation of the hostile forces while they were still in the cradle.
Moreover, the most important thing for the new disciples of the True Martial University was the 'Martial Arts Competition' between the four forces. Not everyone would participate in this time's Martial Arts Competition. In fact, not all the heaven's pride experts would participate in it. However, it was still a big event without a doubt.
In the past, all the heaven's pride experts had participated in this competition. However, all of them had been killed in the end. Everyone had learned their lesson since then. And, they wouldn't allow all the heaven's pride experts and elites to participate in this competition.
This time's' Martial Arts Competition 'had been held in accordance with the rules of rotation. And, it was the True Martial University's turn this time. Therefore, Ye Xiwen and the others didn't need to go to other places in advance.
None of the major forces dared to underestimate this time's Martial Arts Competition. It could be said that the competition between these newcomers was a competition that would determine the strength of these forces for a long time in the future. A disciple of a certain force would always suppress the other outstanding heroes. So, it was very likely that the momentum of a certain force would go to war for a certain period of time in the future.
Ye Xiwen didn't say a word after he returned to the True Martial University. He closed himself, and entered into a state of closed-door training. Qi Feifan knew that Ye Xiwen was suffering in his heart. However, he didn't have any words to advise him at this time.
Time passed day by day while Ye Xiwen was in closed-door training. And, the day of the 'Martial Arts Competition' between the four forces had arrived very soon.
The True Martial University was originally very prosperous. But, it had become even more lively now. It was a boiling cauldron of people. It was the 'Martial Arts Competition' between the four forces. However, all the major forces would send their people to observe and see their strength apart from the people of the four forces.
This was also an important segment for the four forces to display their strength to the outside world. The more outstanding a disciple's performance was, the higher their evaluation would be. This was also a way to deter others from using force.
All kinds of streamers landed in the True Martial University one after another on this day. The representatives of various forces — especially the representatives of the remaining three forces — had also dared to come over in large batches.
Many elders of the True Martial University had also come out to receive the guests on this day. They wanted to show that they valued the guests. Moreover, they wanted to deter some people who might have bad intentions.
"Brother Ye has been in closed-door training for a long time. Why hasn't he come out yet?" Deng Shui Xin anxiously looked at the place where Ye Xiwen was in closed-door training. Yang Wen Jun was beside her. He looked calm and at ease. He wasn't anxious at all.
Both of them had finally stepped into the sage realm after a few years. And, they had ended their closed-door training. Their innate talents were a little worse than Bai Jiansong and the others. However, they were still rare geniuses. Moreover, they had accumulated for hundreds of years. They had made great progress after they had obtained the complete version of the 'Hidden Star Scripture'. They had crossed the semi-sage realm in one go. Both of them had entered the sage realm, and had been promoted to become core disciples. Their status in the past was simply incomparable.
Therefore, they were especially grateful to Ye Xiwen. It was unknown how many years it would've taken for them to make the breakthrough to their current level without Ye Xiwen's help. It wasn't a matter of accumulation. The main problem was that they didn't have the complete version of their power technique. Therefore, they had to be very careful in every step of their cultivation. Their progress was much slower than that of their contemporaries. However, their accumulation and foundation were also very deep. Therefore, they would erupt as long as their power technique was correct.
Both of them had also heard from Qi Feifan who had returned with Ye Xiwen about Hua Menghan's matter. Qi Feifan wasn't very clear about the matter between Ye Xiwen and Hua Menghan. However, it was enough to let them know that Ye Xiwen's current situation wasn't very good. So, he needed time to adjust his mentality.
"Don't worry. Brother Ye has always been strong. This kind of blow shouldn't be a problem for him!" Yang Wen Jun said.
Ye Xiwen hadn't been here for a few years. However, he knew that Ye Xiwen was an exceptionally strong person. He wasn't the kind of person who would only cry.
"However, the Martial Arts Competition of the four forces is coming soon. He will miss this Martial Arts Competition if he doesn't come out," Deng Shui Xin said.
"If he misses it, then he misses it. Anyway, it doesn't matter if he doesn't go to this Martial Arts Competition!" Yang Wen Jun was open-minded. This Martial Arts Competition was a good place for an average person to make a name for themselves. However, did Ye Xiwen need to make a name for himself?
He didn't need to. In fact, he couldn't wait to keep a low profile so that he wouldn't be targeted by others.
"Creak!" The door of Ye Xiwen's closed-door training room was opened. A person's silhouette came out of it. Both of them looked at it, and saw that it was Ye Xiwen.
However, they saw that Ye Xiwen was glowing with health. He didn't have a dispirited expression on his face. In fact, it seemed as if nothing had happened.
"Let's go and participate in the Martial Arts Competition. Otherwise, we will miss it!" Ye Xiwen said. He clenched his fists tightly. The road to the peak would begin from this Martial Arts Competition.
"Ding!"
"Ding!"
"Ding!"
A melodious and vigorous bell sound resounded. It penetrated the endless clouds, and spread throughout the entire True Martial University. Everyone knew that this Martial Arts Competition had begun.
