The entrance to the formation was quickly opened.
The Dark Star Sect's leader was the first to rush in. The Black Tiger King followed closely behind, and the other higher-ups also entered the valley.
At this time, Ye Xing had already returned to his human form. Zhuo Yupeng crawled up and sat on the ground. There was still a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth, and he looked battered and exhausted.
Zhuo Yupeng was the Dark Star Sect's young master. Ye Xing knew his limits. Although it looked like he had beaten him up badly, he didn't suffer any serious injuries.
Ye Xing's goal wasn't to injure Zhuo Yupeng badly, but to teach him a lesson and let him know his own worth.
"Yupeng, are you alright?!" The Dark Star Sect's leader rushed to Zhuo Yupeng and helped him up.
Zhuo Yupeng had always been arrogant, but today, he had suffered such a miserable defeat at the hands of Ye Xing. Now that he saw the Dark Star Sect's leader and the higher-ups of the Dark Star Sect, he felt ashamed.
"Father, Ye Xing has gone too far. He stole my astral energy and even injured me. You have to uphold justice for me."
Although Zhuo Yupeng was ashamed, he wasn't stupid. He continued to push the blame on Ye Xing. He wanted to be in the right first.
Although there was no proof, and the Dark Star Sect's leader wouldn't believe Ye Xing's words, Ye Xing couldn't tolerate Zhuo Yupeng slandering him.
Ye Xing said, "Sect Leader, the one who stole your astral energy is Zhuo Yupeng, and the one who attacked first is also Zhuo Yupeng. He is distorting the truth and creating trouble out of nothing. Please investigate."
Zhuo Yupeng had been beaten up badly by Ye Xing. He knew that he couldn't deal with Ye Xing by himself, so he could only rely on his father. The only way was to falsely accuse Ye Xing. As long as his father believed him, he would naturally take care of Ye Xing.
Zhuo Yupeng was like a rooster with its feathers puffed up. He pointed at Ye Xing and shouted, "Bullshit! You were the one who snatched my Star Energy first. Now you've even injured me. My injuries are still there, and you still dare to deny it?"
Just as the Dark Star Sect Master was about to speak, the Black Tiger King shouted, "What are you arguing about? Elder Daoist, have you investigated how they started fighting?"
Zhuo Yupeng's face paled. Ling Daochen was an elder of formations. Could it be that there was a record of formations in the Cultivation Sacred Pond?
If that was really the case, then there would be a recording array to record everything. They would be able to find evidence of what had happened before. Zhuo Yupeng immediately had a bad feeling.
Now, Zhuo Yupeng could only pray that the Cultivation Sacred Pond did not record the array formation.
Ling Daochen said, "Sect Master, Left Emissary, I've already investigated through the Recording Array. It was the Young Sect Master who snatched Ye Xing's Star Energy first. Then, Ye Xing stopped him. Then, the Young Sect Master attacked Ye Xing. After Ye Xing dodged, the two of them started arguing.
After that, Ye Xing swallowed his anger and said that he would let it go. However, the Young Sect Master said that he could not let it go. He wanted Ye Xing to compensate him with half of the remaining Star Energy. Ye Xing refused, so the two of them started fighting and ended up like this. "
Zhuo Yupeng's face instantly turned pale. Damn, there really was a recording array formation?
The Cultivation Sacred Pond only opened once every few decades. It had been 80 years since the last time it opened. Zhuo Yupeng was only 31 years old. How could he have known that there was a recording array formation in the Cultivation Sacred Pond?
If he had known that there was a recording array formation, Zhuo Yupeng would have suppressed his demonic thoughts and not made such a mistake.
Slap!
The Dark Star Sect Master was furious. He slapped Zhuo Yupeng's face.
Zhuo Yupeng immediately vomited blood and shattered teeth. He was sent flying by the Dark Star Sect Master's slap.
The Dark Star Sect Master was truly furious today. Zhuo Yupeng was a monstrous genius, and he had always been very satisfied with him. But today, he realized that his son's temperament was lacking.
Not only did he steal someone else's things, he even wanted to hit someone. How could there be such logic in this world? The Dark Star Sect Master felt that he had lost all face.
The higher his expectations for Zhuo Yupeng, the greater his disappointment. His heart was dripping blood.
Zhuo Yupeng crashed into the distance and vomited blood once more. The injury Ye Xing had inflicted on him just now was not as great as this slap from the Dark Star Sect Master.
Zhuo Yupeng's status in the Dark Star Sect was all because his father was the Dark Star Sect's Sect Master. Now that his father had given him such a heavy slap, he was completely stunned.
The Dark Star Sect Master said angrily, "You bastard, you've disappointed me too much. I'll punish you to go to the reflection room and reflect on your actions for three months. Reflect on your actions."
After saying that, the Dark Star Sect Master waved his sleeves and walked out of the valley.
In order to prevent the Cultivation Saint Pond's astral power from leaking out, the array formation's entrance was opened and closed at will. Ling Daochen hurriedly followed the Dark Star Sect Master and opened the array formation's entrance.
The Black Biao King glanced at Zhuo Yupeng in the distance. Then, he gave Ye Xing a look of affirmation. He waved at the upper echelons and said, "Let's go out first and let them continue cultivating."
Soon, the upper echelons of the Dark Star Sect left the valley. Only the first ten young Venerables were left in the Cultivation Saint Pond.
"Young Sect Master!"
"Young Sect Master, how are you?"
…
Zhuo Yuandong, Ximen Song, and the others hurriedly ran to Zhuo Yupeng's side.
Although Zhuo Yupeng had been taught a lesson by the Dark Star Sect Master and was punished to go to the reflection room, the Dark Star Sect Master only had one son. He had always been very important to the Dark Star Sect Master. Moreover, Zhuo Yupeng was indeed a genius. The position of Sect Master would definitely fall on Zhuo Yupeng in the future. Therefore, the younger generation of the Zhuo Clan and Ximen Clan naturally continued to rely on Zhuo Yupeng.
Zhuo Yupeng spat out a mouthful of blood and fiercely punched the ground. His eyes were filled with anger and resentment.
However, he no longer dared to look at Ye Xing. The battle just now had already shown that he, Zhuo Yupeng, was not a match for Ye Xing. He no longer had the qualifications to challenge Ye Xing.
At least not now.
The Dark Star Sect's actions surprised Ye Xing. He thought that even if the Dark Star Sect Master knew the truth, he would still protect Zhuo Yupeng and not punish him.
However, he didn't expect the Dark Star Sect Master to be so fair.
Ye Xing somewhat understood why the Black Tiger King, who was the strongest in the Dark Star Sect, didn't want the position of Dark Star Sect Master. He was also very respectful to the Dark Star Sect Master.
It seemed that the Dark Star Sect Master was indeed a very competent Sect Master. He didn't seek personal gains for the Zhuo Clan, and handled things fairly.
Ye Xing looked at Wei Qingxuan. The two looked at each other and smiled. Then, they returned to the pool and sat down to cultivate.
Hei Gang and the Lin and Lan Clan elders also returned to their seats.
Although Zhuo Yuandong, Ximen Song, and the others were very dissatisfied with Ye Xing, they didn't dare to provoke Ye Xing. So, they all returned to their seats and continued to cultivate.
Soon, someone else made a breakthrough. It was the sixth star master of the Lan family, becoming a seventh star master. It seemed like he had consolidated his sixth level Astral Reaching Realm cultivation base quite well.
After that, no one else made a breakthrough.
After absorbing all the star power in the pool, Ye Xing's cultivation had already consolidated to the late fifth level, and Wei Qingxuan had even consolidated to the peak of the fifth level.
