However, in this year's Heavenly Clan Gathering, the Ye clan relied on Ye Zifeng to shine amongst all the other clans in Leizhou City. They managed to get first place in the top ten and had a lot of hope for the Ye clan. He couldn't help but feel proud that he was a part of the Ye clan.
Maybe he shouldn't put Ye Chen and his son on the opposite side anymore.
While Ye Zifeng was thinking about this, he saw Ye Huichi limping down from the stage. Ye Zifeng had fought very well and Liu Yige had suffered quite a bit of injuries.
However, the result was still Ye Huichi's defeat. The score was now 1: 1.
"Cousin ….. You lied to me. You said that I could beat Liu Yige. Look at me. I've been beaten into a pig's head ….."
Ye Huichi pointed at his swollen face. He couldn't even speak properly. Even his front teeth were crooked.
"Huichi, it's been hard on you this time. Come. Where does it hurt? Tell your father." Ye Chen felt pain in his heart. He wanted to comfort Huichi but was stopped by Ye Zifeng.
Ye Zifeng smiled, "Huichi, even though you lost, it was still an honorable loss. I bet that you broke a few of Liu Yige's ribs. Look around. They're all praising you. Why don't you puff out your chest and show off your strength ….."
"Really? There's actually people who think that I fought well? " Ye Huichi's eyes lit up. He turned around and looked around. Sure enough, there were people smiling at him. There were even some girls from small clans who were shyly looking at him.
Especially when he felt the gazes of the girls, Ye Huichi's heart trembled. His entire body shook and he felt a lot more spirited. It was as if he didn't care about the pain anymore.
"Cousin, you're really amazing. I was blind before. I hope that you'll be magnanimous and not take it to heart. From now on, I'll follow you." He excitedly looked at Ye Zifeng. He felt good about himself. He had clearly forgotten about the name he was cursing when he was beaten up.
Ye Zifeng bitterly smiled and nodded. He didn't expect this outcome at all. It was all thanks to Elder Lin's help. Even if the Ye clan loses this gathering, the entire Ye clan will be united against a common enemy. Looking at it from a long-term point of view, it's not necessarily a bad thing.
"Brother Zifeng, you're going up against Liu Bingqian, who's at the peak of the 9th stage of qi refining. How about you just give up? I'm afraid that something might happen to you." Xue Yi was worried. "Brother Zifeng, you're going up against Liu Bingqian.
"You have no confidence in me?"
"This is no longer a matter of confidence …"
"Then, are you afraid that I'll be flattened like Ye Huichi's pig head? Don't worry, Liu Bing Qian won't do that. " Ye Zifeng smiled. He had some confidence in himself. After all, Bingqian had known him for a while. She would always leave some leeway for him.
"But …" Ye Xue Yi stared at him blankly. Her lips moved a few times. She was still worried in her heart.
A fourth stage of qi refining going up against a ninth stage of qi refining. This wasn't a small difference. Most people would back off. However, Ye Zifeng didn't want to do this.
From what he can see, qi refining stage disciples only have different amounts of qi. Before reaching the Martial Disciple realm, there's no such thing as an insurmountable gap.
Right now, the gathering isn't a life and death battle. If he doesn't go all out and settle for second place ….. In the future, when he faces an opponent that's several times stronger than him, how will he deal with it? It's not like he'll fight someone that's one or two levels stronger than him every time. How can he say that he'll be the strongest?
"Ye Zifeng, Liu Bingqian, please come up to the stage!" Elder Lin's voice was extremely loud. The atmosphere in the arena was at its peak.
This was the final match of the Heavenly Clan Gathering that happens once every five years. At the same time, this was the first time in many years that the difference in strength between the two sides was too great.
On the two sides of the arena, the disciples of the aristocratic families had gathered here, and their discussions were in full swing as they placed their bets in a frenzy.
"Miss Liu, I'm betting all of my money on you winning. Don't go easy on me!"
"Ye Zifeng, we're betting that you'll admit defeat on the stage. If you really do that, then we'll give you half of our money. Hahahaha ….. "
"Ye Zifeng, I bet one gold coin on you. If I win, then I'll earn two hundred gold coins! You have to work hard for me! "
Liu Bingqian had a complicated look in her eyes. She looked at Ye Zifeng, "Honestly, I don't know what you're thinking. We've known each other for a while. Wait a bit ….. "
Ye Zifeng smiled, "Since we've known each other for a while, are you going to go easy on me?"
The two of them walked up to the stage. In the middle of the stage was Elder Lin. Ye Zifeng smiled and bowed towards him. He didn't care about what he did to the Liu clan anymore.
Bingqian's face sank and shook her head, "No way. My clan's glory is very important. I can't do whatever I want. If we fight, then I'll be responsible for my clan and win. However, since we've known each other for a while, I won't go easy on you. I just hope that you'll back off and leave the stage. "
Ye Zifeng smiled and sighed, "That's right. You have a clan and I have a clan. You have to be responsible for your clan and so do I. "
He paused for a bit and looked at Bingqian, "Since we both have a reason to win, then let's fight to our heart's content!"
"Begin!" Elder Lin yelled.
Liu Bingqian gently took a deep breath. A sharp glint flashed in her eyes. A terrifying burst of spiritual energy surged from her body. It suddenly engulfed the entire arena.
"Oh my god. Did you see that? The qi is so dense that it's covering the entire stage. Too scary. Ye Zifeng, hurry up and surrender. "
"That's right. With qi being released to this extent, there's no way to fight."
Bingqian, who was at the peak of the 9th stage of qi refining, could already use qi to fight. Of course, it's still a bit difficult for a qi refining cultivator to use qi to fight. In the eyes of an expert, it's just a flashy way of fighting.
However, Bingqian was different. She wanted Ye Zifeng to surrender. If a normal person saw such a terrifying qi explosion, their legs would probably tremble. How would they dare to go up and fight?
However, Ye Zifeng didn't sigh at all. This kind of qi that swept through the entire stage was nothing compared to the heaven destroying and earth shattering Soul Tide that he had seen before. He definitely wouldn't be scared by it.
Ye Zifeng coldly laughed and charged towards Bingqian like a bolt of lightning. He channeled half of his qi into his legs and moved extremely fast. Before long, he was already in front of Bingqian. With a backhand, he attacked her neck.
"You still want to fight? Don't blame me for being merciless. " Liu Bingqian furrowed her brows. Her eyes were cold. She grabbed Ye Zifeng's hand and threw him out of the stage. Ye Zifeng was thrown out of the stage.
This scene was within everyone's expectations. The difference between the 9th stage of qi refining and the 4th stage of qi refining was like this. Also, Bingqian was being lenient. She only wanted to retreat and not injure him.
However, Ye Zifeng slammed his palm towards the ground and used the recoil to neutralize the force. He was able to stand on the edge of the stage and didn't fall down.
Liu Yige yelled, "Sister Bingqian, don't be lenient towards him. That Ye Zifeng is a mangy dog. If you don't go hard on him, he'll continue to fight with you!"
Liu Bing Qian glanced at him coldly, "My Liu family's people don't need outsiders to interfere!" She was different from Ning Zi. She had never treated Liu Yige, who was an adopted son, as one of her own.
"You ….." Liu Yige gloomily looked at her. His heart was filled with anger.
Ye Zifeng stood up and wiped the blood from his mouth, "As expected, the difference between the fourth stage of qi refining and the ninth stage of qi refining is too big. Just a casual strike from you was enough to send me flying. All of my attacks were nullified as well."
Bingqian stared at him, "If you know that you're not my opponent, then hurry up and surrender. The difference between our strength is too big. You can't win."
"I admit that in terms of strength, I'm not your opponent."
"Then why don't you hurry up ….."
The corner of Ye Feng's mouth raised into a smile, "However, if you want to win, it might not be related to strength."
He paused for a bit and then continued to smile, "When I was with you before, I told you that it's better to cram at the last minute. Do you think that the person who usually wins will win?"
Bingqian didn't understand what Ye Zifeng meant. She didn't know where his confidence came from.
"Why don't you look at your own palms? Do you think that just now, you grabbed my hand and threw me out, it was just such a simple thing? "Ye Feng reminded.
Bingqian furrowed her brows and looked at her own palms. She was shocked.
She saw that there were several lightning bolts circling around her hands. The lightning bolts shot out in the air and made a hissing sound. The qi in her hands was blocked by the lightning bolts and couldn't be used in a short amount of time.
So it turned out that Ye Zifeng was taking advantage of her soft-heartedness and not being ruthless the first time they met. It looked like he was attacking Bingqian but it was just a feint. His real goal was to be able to seal the flow of qi in Bingqian's hands.
"Thunder Spirit Pill …. I understand now. This must be the power of the Thunder Spirit Pill right?" Bingqian muttered. She had never taken any elixir with an attribute before so for a moment, she had neglected the characteristics of this elixir.
At this time, she suddenly heard a gust of wind whistling in front of her, and quickly looked up.
