Ye Futian's body landed on the steps. Duan Qinghe also stood up, coughing up blood.
"The hallowed disciple of the divine path is extraordinary, so I was unable to hold back during the battle. Please forgive me." Ye Futian nodded at Duan Qinghe.
Duan Qinghe looked at Ye Futian deeply. Ye Futian, who was a mid-level sage, had defeated him, an upper-level sage. There was no need to talk about extraordinary strength.
"Battles are inevitable. There is no need to be polite. With Lord Ye's strength, there are few in the Nine States who can rival you." Duan Qinghe cupped his hands and said, "Farewell."
He then turned and left. As a hallowed disciple of the divine path of the Nine State College, he represented the pinnacle of the Nine State College. Naturally, he did not need to listen to Ye Futian and the others debate.
If Ye Futian was a true saint, he would be qualified to preach to hallowed disciples of the divine path.
The hearts of the Nine State College were slightly shaken. Although Duan Qinghe's defeat did not look good, his evaluation of Ye Futian was extremely high.
But they were also very clear that to be able to defeat hallowed disciple Duan Qinghe in such a violent manner, Ye Futian was indeed qualified to stand shoulder to shoulder with the pinnacle figures of the Nine States.
Ye Futian looked at Sage Liuyun and said with a smile, "I have fought enough today. I will not fight anymore."
In the world of cultivation, only strength could win respect. The Nine State College was the number one college in the Nine States and had countless geniuses. Even if he was the leader of the Barren State and had a great reputation in the Eastern State, this was the Summer State and the Nine State College. If he only relied on his reputation, he would not be able to gain a foothold here, and the Nine State College would not give him enough respect.
Therefore, sometimes he should show his strength, but he should not overdo it. After all, he was not here for revenge. If he really defeated all the geniuses of the Nine State College, it would not look good on both sides.
Sage Liuyun smiled and nodded. "Today, Lord Ye sparred in Qingyun Building. I think these guys should know that there is always someone better out there and will not dare to be arrogant in the future."
Ye Futian returned to his seat and Sage Liuyun said, "Today, other than Ye Futian, there is also Yu Sheng, Liu Zong, and the others. If you want to learn, hurry up."
Yu Sheng and Liu Zong's plane was different from Ye Futian's. There were naturally students of the Nine State College who were of similar plane as them. At that moment, another person walked out and said, "I would like to learn from the champion of the Nine State Forum, Yu Sheng."
"Don't be too heavy-handed," Ye Futian said to Yu Sheng telepathically as he looked down with a smile.
"Then I'll be gentle." Perhaps Yu Sheng hadn't realized it yet, but he didn't reply telepathically. Instead, he spoke directly and walked out.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone had a strange look on their faces.
Gentler?
Everyone looked at Ye Futian and saw him looking at Yu Sheng with a strange expression. How could they not understand what had happened? Ye Futian must have asked Yu Sheng to show mercy.
"This …" Everyone rolled their eyes, somewhat speechless.
These two fellows were simply too much.
The student from the College who walked out did not look too good. No matter what, he was a genius and a candidate to become a disciple of the Holy Path. If he had not entered the Sage Plane before the Nine State Forum, he would have participated in the Nine State Forum as well.
Yu Sheng said that he would be gentle before the battle even started. This was simply …
"Brother Yu Sheng, you don't have to be gentle," he said with a dark expression.
Yu Sheng looked at him and saw the determination on his face. Yu Sheng nodded and said, "Alright."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step forward and the ground shook violently. Then, the student saw Yu Sheng's body rushing towards him like a demonic beast in human form. A terrifying aura appeared in the surroundings, as if it was enveloped by Yu Sheng's power.
He gathered his strength to defend himself. His Life Spirit and rule power burst forth in a dazzling display. However, Yu Sheng's punch came straight at him, crushing everything in its path.
With a loud bang, his body flew out of the area and crashed into the crowd of onlookers. He coughed up blood continuously.
"This …"
Everyone was speechless. Pairs of eyes looked at Yu Sheng. How could he bully someone like that?
Just now, he said that he would be gentle, but then he sent him flying with a punch.
Ye Futian also looked awkward and explained, "This guy was born with great strength and couldn't control it."
"It's fine." Sage Liuyun was also speechless. As expected, Yu Sheng was still the same as he was at the Nine State Forum. His temper had not changed at all.
That punch would probably leave a psychological scar on that guy.
Yu Sheng scratched his head and looked at the crowd. "I will still be cultivating at the Nine State Forum for a while. If anyone wants to spar with me, I will definitely do my best to test the strength of the College's disciples."
"Cough, cough …"
Ye Futian glared at Yu Sheng. Revenge. This guy is taking revenge on me for selling him out.
The Nine State College's disciples were speechless. Some were extremely unhappy and walked out to challenge Yu Sheng again, but he was sent flying with another punch. It was a tragic sight.
Others of the same plane felt a chill run down their spines. Is this b * stard a human or a demonic beast?
It was better not to fight.
Those who were not disciples of the Divine Path would probably not be able to withstand this guy's insane attacks.
No one challenged Yu Sheng, but someone else challenged Liu Zong. However, Liu Zong also shone with his own light. His combat ability was unparalleled, and no one could match him. He was very strong.
He was the only disciple of Xihua Sacred Mountain to be taught by all three saints. As a future saint, he naturally lived up to his reputation.
After a long while, the sparring session at Qingyun Building ended. Ye Futian, Yu Sheng, and Liu Zong had not been defeated. Zhou Ya had also defeated several challengers, and Zhou You had lost one. However, other than Duan Qinghe, no other disciples of the Divine Path had fought after that.
Sage Liuyun then set up a banquet to entertain everyone, and finally sent people to settle down the people from the three holy lands.
The cultivators from the three holy lands were all temporarily staying in the palace of the Nine State College.
…
After everyone had dispersed, everything that had happened at Qingyun Building quickly spread throughout the Nine State College.
Everyone in the College was talking about it, and the one who was most talked about was Ye Futian.
The Lord of the Barren State's holy land who had risen to fame was now staying in the College. There was also Yu Sheng, the number one of the Nine State Forum, Liu Zong of Xihua Sacred Mountain, and the others. They would all be cultivating in the College for a while.
It seemed that the College would not be peaceful anymore.
The few in front of Qingyun Building were almost undefeated, and Ye Futian had even defeated a disciple of the Divine Path. It was unknown if the other disciples of the Divine Path would have any thoughts about it.
At that moment, in front of a building in the Nine State College, a young man was carving, concentrating. Someone walked up to him and said, "Something interesting happened in the College today. Now everyone in the College is talking about it. Do you want to know?"
The young man seemed not to have heard anything and continued to carve quietly, as if he was completing his own work of art.
Seeing this scene, the person next to him was a little speechless and continued, "The Barren State's recently rather famous Palace Lord Ye Futian, the number one of the Nine State Forum, Yu Sheng, and Xihua Sacred Mountain's Liu Zong have all come to the College."
The young man continued to ignore them and continued with his carving.
"In front of Qingyun Building, many disciples of the College sparred with them, and almost all of them lost. Even Duan Qinghe lost to Ye Futian. Many people say that Ye Futian and Yu Sheng's talents are comparable to those at the top of the holy lands of the Nine States. Are you not interested at all?" He said, a little speechless.
The young man in front of him was a genius at the top of the Nine State College. There were only two or three people in the Nine State College who could compare with him.
"I heard that Ye Futian activated the Sword Matrix of the Void and killed a Saint. He was put on a pedestal by the people of the Barren State and was regarded as the hope of the Barren State's revival. Many of the older generation were willing to assist him. In the Sacred War, the will of the Barren State was unified. Although Duan Qinghe's talent in cultivation is strong, he has never been truly tempered and thinks too highly of himself.
The young man put down the carving knife in his hand and turned to look at the person. He asked, "What's there to be surprised about?"
The person was stunned and then said speechlessly, "You've seen through it all. I thought you didn't care about the outside world, but since you have such a high opinion of Ye Futian, are you not interested in such a person?"
"Time will naturally eliminate the so-called geniuses of the generation. The truly peerless figures will naturally walk to the top of the Nine States. They are all representatives of an era. If Ye Futian is such a person, why be in such a hurry?" the young man said.
The person was stunned and said speechlessly, "I really don't understand what you people think."
As he said this, he shook his head and left.
It was not just here. Many places in the Nine State College were discussing everything about Ye Futian. It was all because Ye Futian had defeated a disciple of the Divine Path of the College.
…
At this time, in a courtyard of the Nine State College, Ye Futian quietly played the guqin. He calmed his mind and focused, using the music to temper his spiritual energy. This habit had not changed for many years.
Qin Zhuang came in from outside and stood to the side listening quietly. After a while, the music stopped. Ye Futian looked up at Qin Zhuang and said, "How is it?"
"I've heard that Saint Jiang is cultivating in seclusion in the Nine State College's Herb Garden. Very few people can see him. The only ones who know of Saint Jiang's whereabouts are probably only his two disciples," Qin Zhuang said.
"Mm." Ye Futian nodded lightly. "It's getting late. We'll go visit Saint Jiang tomorrow."
"Alright." Qin Zhuang nodded.
There was the sound of footsteps. Ye Futian looked up and saw the person coming. He smiled and called, "Master."
"Futian, everything has its own destiny. Don't worry too much about it. If Saint Jiang is unwilling to help, we won't force it," Sage Douzhan said to Ye Futian. Sage Douzhan said to Ye Futian. He knew that his disciple had high hopes for this trip and wanted Saint Jiang to help him.
But Saint Jiang was ranked 12th on the Sage and Saint Ranking and had no relationship with them. He was not someone who could be easily asked.
"Mm." Ye Futian smiled and said, "Master, don't worry. I won't be too stubborn. I just have to at least try hard. No matter how much one has to go through in cultivation, there will be an opportunity to enter the Saint Plane. Now that I'm only one step away, no matter how difficult it is, it's not as difficult as the path of cultivation."
