(Fourth update! Supplement 14! There's a fifth update tonight, begging for monthly votes!)
Boom –
With a loud explosion, the area where the dark spear light pierced, the void in a radius of dozens of feet suddenly shook and was shrouded in darkness. Then, it instantly exploded, like a landslide or a tsunami.
All the shadowless blade light was shattered at this moment.
The metal attribute star in the sky also trembled violently, and then disappeared in the blink of an eye, voluntarily retracting into Qi Jingyang's forehead.
The star was forcibly retracted, and Qi Jingyang suddenly felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows. His eyes were instantly filled with horror.
After shattering the shadowless blade light and the metal attribute star, the power of Ye Xing's Dark Spirit Spear was still terrifying, and it blasted into Qi Jingyang's body with the force of thunder.
Bang –
Qi Jingyang's defensive star essence was instantly shattered. His body was like a cannonball, suddenly exploding backwards.
In the air, Qi Jingyang spat out a mouthful of blood. The middle-grade Golden Leaf Saber in his hand trembled violently, almost falling out of his hand.
Heavenly Bat Steps!
A flash of light!
Ye Xing's figure flashed, as fast as lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he chased after Qi Jingyang.
The Purple Feather Spear, with a dark spear light, drew a straight black line in the void.
Ye Xing's spear did not attack Qi Jingyang's body, but stabbed the middle-grade Golden Leaf Saber.
Clang –
With a loud bang, the already violently trembling Golden Leaf Saber instantly shot out from Qi Jingyang's hand.
Ye Xing's arm continued to thrust forward, and the Purple Feather Spear continued to stab forward with a terrifying force.
With a whoosh, it stopped in front of Qi Jingyang's throat!
"Junior Brother Ye –!"
From behind, Lin Tongyu anxiously shouted. She was really afraid that Ye Xing would not be able to hold back, and the spear would pierce Qi Jingyang's throat and take his life.
In that case, although Qi Jingyang would die, Ye Xing wouldn't be able to live either. As soon as he left the Falling Star Secret Realm, he would be punished by the Sect's rules. With so many Core Disciples watching from the sidelines, Ye Xing would definitely die.
Lin Tongyu didn't want that to happen.
Ye Xing clearly knew his limits. His control was so precise that the tip of the spear almost touched the skin of Qi Jingyang's throat.
Even though the tip of the spear hadn't pierced through, its sharp aura had rushed into Qi Jingyang's throat. This caused Qi Jingyang's heart to tremble, and he immediately swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
At the same time, two drops of cold sweat dripped from both sides of his face.
"Second core disciple?"
"Six Star Martial Saint?"
Ye Xing's cold voice rang out, full of disdain. "You're nothing. You're just a good-for-nothing!"
Ye Xing's words were like a few big slaps on Qi Jingyang's face, slapping his face loudly.
Qi Jingyang clenched his teeth. His eyes seemed to spit fire as he glared at Ye Xing.
"I'll let you be arrogant now. When you leave the Fallen Star Secret Territory, I'll let you know the consequences of being arrogant in front of me. At that time, I'll crush you as easily as crushing an ant!"
Ye Xing sneered. "You're a good-for-nothing, yet you call me father and grandfather. Aiya … I'm so scared! When you leave the Fallen Star Secret Territory, you can go ask for reinforcements. But let me remind you, when you cry in front of your father or grandfather, remember to put your hands on your head. If I had a good-for-nothing son like you, I'd slap your disgraceful face! "
Ye Xing was not afraid of Qi Jingyang's threat at all.
Now, he could be said to have grown wings in the Fallen Star Sect. Not to mention that his master was the Formation Elder Lin Fenghua, his performance alone was enough to attract the attention of the Fallen Star Sect. As long as the elders of the Fallen Star Sect were not fools, they would treat him as an important seed to cultivate.
After entering the inner sect for a few months, he had become the second core disciple. When the Fallen Star Secret Territory was over, Ye Xing might even become the first core disciple. With such performance, as long as one was not blind, anyone could see that Ye Xing had extraordinary potential.
In front of the fact that he had improved by leaps and bounds, even if his cultivation talent was trash, he would still win enough attention.
In the end, trash cultivation talent was not valued because there was no chance for him to stand out.
What if he had already stood out?
Who cared if your cultivation talent was trash?
Ye Xing was about to reach the peak of the Fallen Star Sect's disciples. At this time, he had nothing to be afraid of!
As long as he did not take the initiative to bully others, if anyone dared to step on his head, he could fall down fiercely. No matter how badly he fell, it was not a serious matter.
Lin Tongyu came to Ye Xing's side and pulled his arm. "Junior Brother Ye Xing, forget it. Don't lower yourself to his level!"
After all, Qi Jingyang's status was extraordinary. Moreover, his great-grandfather had once risked his life to save Lin Tongyu's grandfather, Lin Xiuyuan. Whether it was for public or private reasons, Lin Tongyu could not stand by and watch Qi Jingyang suffer.
Ye Xing kept his Purple Quill Spear and smiled at Lin Tongyu. "He's just a good-for-nothing. I didn't lower myself to his level. Let's go over there!"
With that, Ye Xing pulled Lin Tongyu's hand again and walked towards the Starry Hall.
Lin Tongyu's face was slightly flushed. She did not say anything and let Ye Xing hold her slender hand as she walked side by side with Ye Xing.
Behind them, Qi Jingyang looked at the backs of Ye Xing and Lin Tongyu and his eyes were about to spit fire.
He kept saying that Ye Xing was a good-for-nothing, but the facts proved that he, Qi Jingyang, was the real good-for-nothing in front of Ye Xing. At the thought of being seen by so many core disciples at this moment, Qi Jingyang's heart was like a breath that could not be dispersed.
Suddenly, Lin Tongyu's voice came from the front. "Aiya, Junior Brother Ye, I can't call you Junior Brother anymore. Should I call you Second Senior Brother?"
Ye Xing patted the back of Lin Tongyu's hand and said as he walked, "What Second Senior Brother? It's just an empty title. I will always be your Junior Brother and you will always be my Senior Sister!"
Lin Tongyu suddenly let out a bell-like laughter.
Pfft — —
Behind them, Qi Jingyang's shame and anger gathered together. The gloominess in his heart could no longer be held back and rushed out, bringing with it a large mouthful of blood.
Outside the Starry Hall, Ye Xing and Lin Tongyu found an open space by the side and sat down, the two chatting and laughing.
The other ten or so core disciples looked at each other and glanced at Ye Xing from time to time, their eyes full of awe and surprise.
Lin Tongyu was right. Ye Xing defeated Qi Jingyang. According to the rules of the Sect, Ye Xing's ranking among the core disciples would rise to second and Qi Jingyang would fall to third.
Therefore, according to reason, it was not wrong for core disciples to call Ye Xing Second Senior Brother.
However, Qi Jingyang's remaining prestige was too strong. Although these core disciples were impressed by Ye Xing's heaven-defying fighting strength and were in awe of Ye Xing, no one dared to call Ye Xing Second Senior Brother. They didn't even dare to come up and say hello.
Knowing that Qi Jingyang was now angry, none of the core disciples dared to touch his reverse scale. They didn't even dare to mention the fight between Ye Xing and Qi Jingyang. Only the core disciples who had a good relationship with each other used Celestial Essence Sound Transmissions to talk about the shock and amazement of the battle.
As time passed, one by one, the core disciples arrived one after another.
The core disciples who came later naturally didn't know about the battle between Ye Xing and Qi Jingyang. The previous core disciples were afraid that Qi Jingyang would be unhappy, so they didn't dare to say anything.
Therefore, the core disciples who came later didn't know that Ye Xing, who was sitting next to Lin Tongyu, had already become the second ranked core disciple.
Qi Jingyang sat alone in a distant place. Everyone could see that he was in a bad mood, but no one dared to go up and ask.
The core disciples who came later talked to each other about their experiences in the Falling Star Secret Territory in the past month. Everyone had a lot of experiences. You talk, I talk, I talk, it's quite lively.
The battle between Ye Xing and Qi Jingyang didn't cause too much of a stir. Of course, this was only on the surface. In fact, in the hearts of the core disciples who had witnessed the battle, the shock it caused was especially calm.
As the time of the Star Palace's opening approached, the core disciples gradually became restless.
Because the core disciples who had gathered were missing one person.
The fourth ranked core disciple, He Hongjiao, one of the Falling Star's Twin Beauties, hadn't shown up.
If a core disciple at the bottom of the ranking didn't show up, no one would be surprised. The Falling Star Secret Territory wasn't 100% safe. Things like core disciples dying had happened many times in the past.
However, this thing happened to He Hongjiao, which was too strange.
