Ye Xiwen stepped into the competition space. The opposite party was already waiting for him. However, Ye Xiwen gawked when he saw the opposite party's appearance. He couldn't help but smile. Ye Xiwen knew this person. It was Li Fei. He was the same person who had come to the Yi Yuan School to take away everyone.
Ye Xiwen hadn't seen him for almost ten years. He had already entered the legendry's great complete realm. He had killed his way to the third round.
Ye Xiwen and Li Fei had some enmity in the past. However, Ye Xiwen didn't care about it anymore. In other words, Li Fei didn't pose any threat to Ye Xiwen.
Although Li Fei had been in the True Martial University for a long time, he could only be regarded as Ye Xiwen's peer. They were the descendants of the original disciples of the True Martial University. They had been born in the True Martial University since childhood. However, they could only be regarded as non-staff members of the True Martial University at that time. Only when the True Martial University had opened its mountain gate to recruit disciples did they become official disciples of the True Martial University.
There was an essential difference between non-staff members and the disciples of the True Martial University.
Li Fei was also stunned as he looked at Ye Xiwen. He smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that his opponent this time would turn out to be Ye Xiwen, an evil star. He and Ye Xiwen had a grudge for a long time. Initially, he had thought of looking for trouble with Ye Xiwen. However, he had extinguished this thought after Ye Xiwen had risen like a rising star. When someone was a little more powerful than you, you would be very jealous. However, when someone was much more powerful than you, you would lose the will to compete with him.
This was Li Fei's current mentality. He also understood that Ye Xiwen and he weren't on the same level since a long time ago. So, he didn't have the will to compete with Ye Xiwen anymore.
"Brother Ye, I admit that I'm not your match. I surrender!" Li Fei didn't wait for Ye Xiwen to open his mouth, and spoke first. He was older than Ye Xiwen. However, Ye Xiwen was much stronger than him. Moreover, they were from the same generation. So, it was natural that strength would speak for itself.
Ye Xiwen gawked. He hadn't expected that Li Fei would admit defeat so straightforwardly. This made Ye Xiwen have a whole new level of respect for him!
"True Martial University's Ye Xiwen wins this round!"
The referee elder's voice echoed throughout the entire space.
Ye Xiwen, Shuiyan Luo, and the others arrived at the 'Metropolis Martial City' under the 'Metropolis Martial Peak'. The 'Metropolis Martial Peak' was the core of many mountain peaks of the True Martial University. And, the 'Metropolis Martial City' was the core of many cities of the True Martial University. It was also the most flourishing one. The 'Hidden Star City' was undoubtedly inferior to the 'Metropolis Martial City'.
Regardless of whether they were disciples from various legacies or major factions, all of them had settled down in Metropolis Martial City. They had already booked their accommodations long ago. They could stay here, and it would also be convenient for them to head to Metropolis Martial Peak to participate in the competition the next day.
Ye Xiwen had booked the largest restaurant in the Metropolis Martial City. He had invited Shuiyan Luo, Huang Luochen, and other senior brothers to a banquet. Qi Feifan hadn't participated in this competition. However, Ye Xiwen had also invited him.
Ye Xiwen and the others booked a private room, and each took a seat. There weren't many disciples of the Yi Yuan School who had come to the True Martial University. Therefore, a private room was more than enough to accommodate everyone.
"It's rare for everyone to gather together today. This is a rare opportunity. So, I propose a toast to everyone!" Ye Xiwen raised his cup and said.
"Brother Ye, we've already gathered together several times. It's just that you're busy!" Qi Feifan teased with a smile. He felt a little relieved when he saw that Ye Xiwen wasn't in deep sorrow.
"Yes, yes!"
"That's right!"
Other people also started to make a ruckus. Qi Feifan had taken the lead, and everyone also became excited. It seemed as if they had returned to the time when they were in the Yi Yuan School. There wasn't such a huge disparity between their status in the True Martial University.
They weren't very familiar with each other when they were in the Yi Yuan School. However, they seemed to be closer to each other in this foreign land of the True Martial University.
This was the most upscale restaurant in the Metropolis Martial City. So, the dishes served here were naturally rare and extraordinary delicacies.
The atmosphere gradually warmed up as they drank and ate to their heart's content.
Suddenly, a loud noise came from downstairs after they had eaten and drank to their heart's content.
Everyone released their divine senses to see. A special array formation had been set up in this private room. The divine senses of the people outside couldn't penetrate into the room. However, the people inside could penetrate out.
They saw a middle-aged man dressed in a scholar's robe coming up from downstairs at this time. He looked like a storyteller. He walked all the way into the restaurant. Many disciples gathered around him in succession.
Everyone's eyebrows suddenly wrinkled. He looked like an ordinary legendary realm scholar. However, no one would dare to look down on him as long as they knew a little inside information. That was because they all had a mysterious origin — the 'All Knowing Scholar'.
No one knew when the 'All Knowing Scholar' had appeared in this world. They only knew that the 'All Knowing Scholar' had spread all over the teahouses and restaurants a long time ago. These storytellers all came from an organization called 'All Knowing Scholar'. They had the most perfect intelligence organization in the world. It could be said that there was almost nothing that they didn't know as long as they were willing to pay.
These storytellers didn't even have the strength to truss a chicken. However, no one would dare to look down on them or bully them. Otherwise, they wouldn't need to think about the retaliation of the 'All Knowing Scholar'. The powerhouses who had owed favors to the 'All Knowing Scholar' over the years were enough to annihilate an entire force. So, one could well imagine the terror of the 'All Knowing Scholar'.
Not many people knew the origin of the 'All Knowing Scholar'. However, the more they knew about it, the more apprehensive they would be. Therefore, they wouldn't dare to overstep their boundaries. Ye Xiwen was also very interested in this' All Knowing Scholar '. He wanted to know how such a huge organization could maintain its operations. However, he was only interested in it.
Of course, not everyone's storyteller was the 'All Knowing Scholar'. The 'All Knowing Scholar's influence was very huge. This was publicly acknowledged. How could they get the information that many big forces couldn't get if they weren't huge enough? However, the' All Knowing Scholar's influence was very huge. It had many branches. However, the 'All Knowing Scholar' rarely appeared on a large scale. In fact, the 'All Knowing Scholar' wouldn't appear in a place like the Yi Yuan School. Some storytellers were at most the subordinates of the 'All Knowing Scholar'. There was only one 'All Knowing Scholar' in the True Martial University. He was in charge of the 'All Knowing Scholar's true intelligence network in the True Martial University.
Nobody knew how many informants the 'All Knowing Scholar' had developed so far. In fact, many people said that the 'All Knowing Scholar' only needed to exchange information with others to maintain the smooth operation of the intelligence network.
There were many legends about the 'All Knowing Scholar'. Ye Xiwen also knew a little about them. However, they had never participated in the disputes of the True Martial World. They were only responsible for selling information. They could get any kind of information as long as someone paid enough money.
However, these storytellers were only the subordinates of the 'All Knowing Scholar'. However, most people also called them 'All Knowing Scholar'. After all, they didn't have their own names.
The major forces were very afraid of the 'All Knowing Scholar'. However, they had finally turned a blind eye to their behavior after seeing that they hadn't participated in the disputes of the True Martial World for countless years.
Especially, the 'All Knowing Scholar' was very popular in this competition. Therefore, most of the information about the disciples had been circulated from the 'All Knowing Scholar'.
Many disciples who had passed the third round today were asking the 'All Knowing Scholar' about their opponents tomorrow. Ye Xiwen was very confident in himself. However, most of the people would try their best to inquire about their opponents in tomorrow's battle. Then, they would collect information. This was the so-called 'know thyself, know thy enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles'.
Ye Xiwen wasn't arrogant. Instead, he was confident. There would be three rounds tomorrow. So, he would look for a block of tofu and knock his head against it if he couldn't even enter the first six rounds.
However, he saw that the 'All Knowing Scholar' was listening to the information that everyone wanted. Then, he continuously took out jade slips from his spatial ring. These jade slips contained all the information that they wanted. In fact, it contained everything.
This was the first time that Ye Xiwen had seen such complete information.
Ye Xiwen saw that Shuiyan Luo, Huang Luochen, and several other disciples who were going to compete tomorrow were somewhat tempted. They weren't as confident as Ye Xiwen. Moreover, they weren't like Qi Feifan who didn't participate in the competition.
They wanted to go down and buy the information that they wanted from the 'All Knowing Scholar'. In fact, they didn't even need to inquire about tomorrow's opponents. They could ask the 'All Knowing Scholar'. After all, the battles weren't random. Instead, there were certain rules. So, it wasn't difficult to inquire about it as long as one had the intention.
Everyone was about to go down and buy the information that they wanted from the 'All Knowing Scholar'. However, they saw a pair of tall figures walking in with large strides. They turned out to be the Xuan Yuan Twin Stars. They arrived beside the 'All Knowing Scholar', and looked down at him.
"Aren't they the Xuan Yuan Twin Stars? What are they doing here? Don't tell me that they also want information? But, who can stop the two of them from joining hands? What information do they need? "
"They naturally don't care about ordinary people. But, what if the opponent is a heaven's pride expert? Didn't I hear that the Xuan Yuan Twin Stars had gone to look for trouble with Ye Xiwen today? Perhaps, they want to know the specific information about Ye Xiwen! "
"It's hard to say. These heaven's pride experts haven't competed with each other. So, it's hard to know who is stronger and who is weaker. So, it's normal for them to be cautious!"
Many disciples of various forces were making guesses out of curiosity.
The 'All Knowing Scholar' raised his eyelids. His expression remained unchanged. He insipidly said, "What kind of information do you want?"
"We want information about a person!" The Xuan Yuan Twin Stars said in unison. It seemed as if they had telepathic connection.
"Whose!" The 'All Knowing Scholar' asked.
"Emperor Chen of the East Sea!" The Xuan Yuan Twin Stars replied, "We only care about Emperor Chen among the disciples of this year. The rest are mediocre!"
The faces of the disciples of the True Martial University and the Fire Cloud Cave turned ugly as soon as these words came out … except for the disciples of the East Sea's Muddy Sky Island. This was a blatant disregard for their heaven's pride experts.
