Ye Futian paused for a moment and felt the spiritual power.
Spiritual energy was formless. If an Arcana Plane cultivator attacked, they would be able to do it without anyone noticing.
"Enough. Go back." A low voice sounded in Ye Futian's mind. It was hard to tell who it was, but it didn't seem to have any ill intentions. It just wanted him to stop.
In reality, after defeating Xu Qing, Ye Futian was ready to leave. However, Zhou Mu stood out, so Ye Futian had to continue fighting. His master had once lost to the Art Saint and even had his Life Spirit destroyed. Today, many people had insulted him. The Art Saint's disciple, Zhou Mu, had attacked and destroyed his guqin. If Ye Futian left after losing, Ye Futian would lose face.
That was why Ye Futian was so angry and fought Zhou Mu back.
Just as Ye Futian was thinking, Zhou Mu's painting was completed. This time, Zhou Mu had drawn a golden dragon. It was ferocious and arrogant. The golden dragon circled around Zhou Mu. Zhou Mu's Life Spirit was released and landed on the golden dragon. It was as if a real dragon had descended. The eyes of the youths who were shocked by Ye Futian's strength brightened again. Zhou Mu was even more terrifying when he fought with all his might.
Seeing this, Ye Futian's expression was cold. A violent storm of Spiritual Qi gathered around him. The Roc spread its wings, shining brightly. At this point, he had no choice but to fight to the end. He could only accept Zhou Mu's good intentions.
Zhou Mu and Ye Futian moved at the same time. The golden dragon and the Roc were about to collide. The Spiritual Qi went wild and the weather changed. Some of the strong cultivators at the banquet used their powers to block the powerful shockwaves caused by their attacks.
But at this moment, Ye Futian suddenly felt another wave of spiritual energy invading him. This time, there was no warning. It was a direct attack. Ye Futian felt a sharp pain and numbness in his spirit. He felt like he was going to lose consciousness. He had already made contact with Zhou Mu's attack. Suddenly, he could not control the flow of Spiritual Qi.
Bang! There was a loud sound. Ye Futian did not know how the attack was launched. At that critical moment, he was ambushed. The power of the attack was greatly reduced.
The golden dragon exploded. Zhou Mu and Ye Futian retreated at the same time.
All of this happened in an extremely short period of time. After Ye Futian landed on the ground, he was stunned. He was not angry, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.
There were many important people at the Wang Mansion's birthday banquet. Since it was a challenge between the younger generation, those important people naturally couldn't bring themselves to make a move. However, since they couldn't do it openly, there were actually people who attacked in secret. It seemed like the person who warned him out of goodwill had foresight.
However, who was reminding him? Who had plotted against him?
Of course, he would not be stupid enough to accuse them. The other party was probably worried that they could not find an excuse to deal with him. If he dared to accuse those big shots of plotting against him, one word of slander would be enough to properly deal with him.
"Thank you." Ye Futian smiled. When he said that, he was not looking at Zhou Mu. Instead, he was looking at the important figures present. The person who ambushed him naturally understood what he meant.
"Today, I had no choice but to disturb Your Highness's birthday banquet. Fortunately, Your Highness is magnanimous and will not argue with this junior. I will take my leave now." Ye Futian smiled and bowed. Then, he elegantly turned around and left. He did not continue fighting. His opponent had already used such a method. If he continued fighting, he would only be at a disadvantage.
"The battle is not over yet. Are you leaving?" Zhou Mu seemed to have gained some confidence from the previous attack. He said to Ye Futian's back.
"Zhou Mu, that's enough," the Art Saint said calmly. Zhou Mu's expression froze. Then, he looked at Ye Futian's back and said, "If there's a chance in the future, let's finish this unfinished battle. I will give it my all."
"Alright. It's not convenient to disturb Your Highness's birthday banquet today. I only used half of my strength. You will understand when we fight again." Ye Futian's figure gradually disappeared into the distance. An extremely arrogant voice floated over. The expression on Zhou Mu's face instantly became extremely interesting.
Today, Ye Futian had forced him to this extent. How dare he say that he only used half of his strength?
"Shameless boasting."
"Arrogant." Voices rang out. Someone said coldly, "This person was defeated by Zhou Mu. Senior Art Saint was magnanimous and did not want to embarrass him. How dare he not be grateful and speak so arrogantly. Outrageous."
"What a shameless person." The sarcastic voices continued.
"Zhou Mu is outstanding. He is indeed Brother Hua's disciple." Lord Luo praised. Many people agreed. However, at this moment, everyone had their own thoughts. Although they were praising Zhou Mu, the important figures knew that even if Zhou Mu managed to defeat Ye Futian's attack in the end, it was hard to say who would win if the battle continued. Moreover, Zhou Mu's cultivation level was higher than Ye Futian's by two levels.
Therefore, this battle was really not worthy of praise.
Xia Fan's expression was extremely cold. He knew that he had never truly "known" Ye Futian before. This guy was so talented. No wonder the Guqin Devil took him as a disciple and went crazy for him. It seemed that this person had to be eliminated as soon as possible. He could not be allowed to grow.
In this banquet, other than the Art Saint and Ye Futian's master, the Guqin Devil, no one else had any grudges with Ye Futian. Even though they had been embarrassed because of Ye Futian, it was not a deep grudge. There was no need to be wary of Ye Futian. However, Xia Fan was different. Once Ye Futian grew up, he would definitely want Xia Fan's life.
"I didn't expect Ye Futian to be able to fight against Zhou Mu. He has some talent. No wonder the Guqin Devil took him as a disciple. Back in the City of Qingzhou, I saw him sweet-talking Hua Jieyu. The two of them seemed to be very close. I'm afraid that she was tricked by him. I'm afraid that he has ulterior motives," Xia Fan said. As soon as he said this, many eyes fell on Xia Fan.
It seemed that this guy had a grudge against Ye Futian.
"Hua Jieyu is the daughter of the Nandou clan. I heard that she is extremely talented. Brother Nandou, you have to be careful," Lord Luo said. Nandou Wenshan's eyes sparkled. He smiled at Lord Luo and said, "Your Highness, you are right to remind me. However, Hua Jieyu cultivated with the Guqin Devil in the City of Qingzhou. Since this guy is the Guqin Devil's disciple, it is normal for them to be close. However, if there is a chance, I will still remind Hua Jieyu."
"I believe that Brother Nandou will make the decision." Lord Luo nodded lightly. Beside him, the Art Saint seemed to be thinking. Then he said, "He did not come to the palace to celebrate the birthday. If my guess is correct, Lord Luo should be able to cure Hua Fengliu's injuries."
Lord Luo's eyes flashed. "You mean that he came to beg me to cure his master?"
"That's right." The Art Saint nodded. Thinking of Ye Futian's declaration of war against the Guqin Devil, he could not help but say, "Hua Fengliu took in a good disciple."
The Art Saint personally praised Ye Futian. The others did not know what to say.
"Zhou Mu, tomorrow, you will go to the School of the Emperor Star to cultivate," the Art Saint suddenly said. His voice was calm. It was as if one word from him and Zhou Mu could enter the School of the Emperor Star without having to go through any tests.
Moreover, the important figures present did not find this strange. It was as if this was something very normal. Even the elder from the School of the Emperor Star did not think there was anything wrong with it.
Ye Futian probably did not think of this at all.
"Alright." Zhou Mu nodded. Hua Jieyu of the Nandou Clan was also at the School of the Emperor Star. Ye Futian was also at Donghai Academy.
"Congratulations to the School of the Emperor Star for taking in another great disciple," Lord Luo said to the elder with a smile.
Lin Xiyue watched all of this quietly. The incomparably elegant figure appeared in her mind. That reckless guy probably did not know the relationship between the School of the Emperor Star, the Art Saint, and Lord Luo.
Fortunately, that guy was smart. He was reckless and cautious at the same time. He did not leave any evidence that could be used against him. The birthday banquet was a public event, so he would not be in danger. However, he had probably offended some people.
The banquet continued but the atmosphere was no longer the same as at the beginning. Lord Luo was supposed to be the main character today, but the spotlight had been stolen by that young man.
At this time, Ye Futian was already on the Black Wind Eagle on the way back to Donghai Academy. The wind blew on him, making his mind exceptionally clear.
Of course, he knew that his actions today were a bit reckless. However, he saw the Art Saint being respected by everyone, the Art Saint's disciple being worshipped by everyone, and his teacher being humiliated behind his back after being crippled. He could not take it anymore.
"This time, I probably offended some people," Ye Futian muttered. He had to be more careful in the future, especially Xia Fan. After seeing this battle, he would definitely want his life. The others did not want to deal with him directly because of their pride, but the same could not be said for him behind his back. This could be seen from the fact that Xia Fan had affected his battle with Zhou Mu.
The person who attacked me was either the Art Saint or Lord Luo, Ye Futian thought. Both of them were Spirit Elemental sorcerers.
The person who warned me must be a senior from the School of the Emperor Star, Ye Futian analyzed.
…
When Ye Futian returned to Donghai Academy, many people looked at him and whispered to each other. Now, there were many people who knew him.
However, Ye Futian did not care and continued to walk forward.
However, as he was walking, a few people blocked his way.
"Ye Futian?" the leader of the group asked.
"What is it?" Ye Futian looked at him. He had never seen him before.
"Jing Yang of the School of the Flirting Star challenged you to a battle. Why have you been avoiding it?" the leader asked.
Ye Futian glanced at him and felt bored. He could not be bothered with him and walked past him.
"The so-called lack of time is just an excuse for cowardice. You entered the School of the Finance Star because you defeated a disciple of the School of the Flirting Star. Now that you've stepped into Donghai Academy, you're acting so cowardly. Are you afraid that your true colors will be exposed? As a disciple of the Finance Star, don't you think that this is a disgrace to the school? "the leader continued.
Many people looked at Ye Futian. Then, they saw Ye Futian stop. With his back to the people from the School of the Flirting Star, he said coldly, "I'm not in a good mood right now, so you better shut up and not challenge me again. Otherwise, you'll regret it."
After saying this, Ye Futian continued to walk away. However, the leader did not seem to want to let him go. He smiled and said, "You can be so confident even when you're avoiding a battle. You've opened my eyes."
