Yi Yun was now a celebrity. If today's main characters were Chu Ran and Qiuniu, then Yi Yun would be the most important supporting character.
Yi Yun's tag-team battle with the Hongdao Association had attracted the attention of many people.
Some people wanted to see how long Yi Yun could last, while others were certain that Yi Yun would lose to Feng Hai in the first round.
The Four Bully Lords were not to be trifled with. To make a name for themselves in the capital, it was not just because of their background or being a foppish son.
Feng Hai himself was ranked 10,750 on the Earth roll of honor. One had to know that there were hundreds of veteran cultivators in front of him who were ranked beyond 10,000. Excluding them, Feng Hai was ranked in the 300s amongst the rookies.
This ranking was quite outstanding!
At this moment, in the audience stands, a girl dressed in green looked at Yi Yun with a trace of curiosity. "So she is Yi Yun."
This girl dressed in green had a petite figure and was somewhat cute. She was the daughter of the Tai Ah Dynasty's Guardian Duke, Chu Ran.
Beside Chu Ran, there was a young man who was at least 1.9 meters tall. He wore a crystal armor, his eyebrows were shaved, and most of his hair was shaved off, leaving only an inch wide hairline in the middle of his head. His hair was excessively long, reaching all the way down to his back.
The youth crossed his arms in front of his chest and spread his legs apart. He squatted on a stone bench as if he was in a horse stance. His back was straight and he had a majestic aura.
This man looked like a ten-year-old youth, but he was only thirteen. He was Qiuniu.
Qiuniu chuckled and said, "This kid is very interesting. You probably don't know this. He was born in the Cloud Wilderness and his status is low. But to have his current achievements, it was not easy! "
"I have a feeling that Yi Yun might not be outstanding now, but he is an unpolished jade. In the future, he might threaten you and me."
"Oh?" Chu Ran's eyes flashed, "He wants to compete with us for first place in the Heaven and Earth roll of honor?"
"It's possible!"
Qiuniu's head.
Be it Qiuniu or Chu Ran, their goals were. All of them would be ranked first in the Heaven or Earth Rankings in the future!
When Qin Haotian and company left the Tai Ah Divine City, Qiuniu and Chu Ran would train in the Tai Ah Divine City for more than five years. By then, it would not be difficult for Qiuniu and Chu Ran to be ranked first!
The difficult part was whether they could achieve this goal within five years.
"Ran, I want the Glory points for being the top rookie! Don't fight with me. "Qiuniu licked his lips. He asked Chu Ran.
Chu Ran chuckled, "That depends on whether you have the ability or not. We haven't competed for a long time!"
Qiuniu and Chu Ran had known each other for a long time and were good friends. They each had their own advantages, and neither was willing to concede to the other.
…
"Yi Yun, quickly come on stage and die!"
After the Law Enforcer read his name. Feng Hai impatiently jumped onto the Divine Wilderness Stage. He was holding a thick saber in his hand. The fighting spirit in his heart was boiling!
Today, I will amaze the world with a single brilliant feat!
Feng Hai shouted in his heart. He felt that his awesome life was about to begin today!
And Yi Yun would be his first whetstone in the Tai Ah Divine City, if Yi Yun was worthy.
Yi Yun leisurely walked onto the stage. He carried the flagpole-like Thousand Army Saber on his back, making him look odd.
"Haha, you also use a saber. You aren't even as long as a saber!" Feng Hai was the tallest person in the Tall, Short, Fat and Thin Combination, so he had a sense of superiority in terms of height. "Unsheathe your saber. We all use sabers. Today, I'll show you what a saber is!"
Feng Hai's saber was very different from Yi Yun's.
Yi Yun used a long saber, and his attack style was similar to a sword. It was fast and sharp.
As for Feng Hai, he used a thick machete, which was good at frontal attacks. Strictly speaking, they were two different types of weapons.
"Unsheathe my saber?" Yi Yun glanced at Feng Hai.
There was no need to use the Thousand Army Saber against Feng Hai as it was not easy to use.
According to the Tai Ah Divine City's rules, those who intentionally kill another person in the arena would be sentenced to death!
Those who mistakenly killed another person would be imprisoned!
The Hongdao Association only wanted to beat Yi Yun until he was bedridden for a few months. They did not dare to harm Yi Yun's life.
If Yi Yun used the Thousand Army Saber together with the Radiant Sun Qi, he would be able to slice through the purple tungsten Divine Wilderness Stage. With such power, it was not impossible for him to kill Feng Hai if he was careless.
Even without using his Radiant Sun Qi, Yi Yun felt that the Thousand Army Saber could easily break through Feng Hai's defense. The Thousand Army Saber's length was enough to split apart a horse. With such a huge difference in strength, he had not used it in the matches up till now.
Besides, the Thousand Army Saber was a double-edged saber. Even if he used the back of the saber to slash, it would be too much for Feng Hai, so he might as well not use it.
Yi Yun shook his head calmly. He recalled a phrase he often read in his previous life's biographies. As such, he said slowly to Feng Hai, "My saber is not easily unsheathed. Once it is unsheathed, it will see blood."
As soon as he said that, everyone present was stunned.
It took a while for them to understand what Yi Yun was planning. He felt that Feng Hai was not worthy of him unsheathing his weapon!
Was this rascal mentally sound? He did not know how many people were watching him from behind!
Each one of them was stronger than the other!
Feng Hai was originally confused by Yi Yun's words. Following that, he became furious. He wished he could tear Yi Yun, who had belittled him, into pieces. But a second later, he was no longer angry. Why would he be angry at a fool?
Even a confident person would feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy in a battle of attrition. But Yi Yun was calm, as if nothing had happened. He even boasted that he would not unsheathe his saber?
Wasn't this clearly a mental problem!?
The people from the Hongdao Association looked at Yi Yun for a while before roaring with laughter.
They now felt that Yi Yun was an ignorant and fearless fool. It was no wonder he was so calm.
As the saying goes, a wise man worries, a fool is fearless.
"Don't misunderstand. Although I will not unsheathe my saber, I will still choose a weapon."
Yi Yun waved his hands. The Thousand Army Saber was not easy to use. If he accidentally slashed Feng Hai at the waist, it would be a huge loss.
But it would not be easy to use a weapon. The power of his fists and feet was still weak. It was not that Yi Yun felt he could not deal with Feng Hai, but there were too many people behind him. It was too tiring to use his fists, and it might even hurt his hands. If he could save energy, why not use it?
Because he was going to fight in this match, Yi Yun had long taken off his Flowing Mercury Gown, so he could fight light.
As such, Yi Yun calmly walked to the side of the stage.
Everyone was looking at him. They wanted to see what kind of tricks Yi Yun would come up with.
There were eighteen weapons around the stage!
"You want to choose the weapons here?" The referee asked. These weapons were placed by the side of the stage. They were meant for the cultivators to use.
"Yes."
Yi Yun scanned the area. There were all sorts of sabers, spears, swords and halberds.
Since none of them could be used, Yi Yun decided to find a blunt weapon. It was convenient and he was not afraid of accidentally killing his opponent.
"Oh, this is not bad. What is this?"
Yi Yun picked up a rectangular metal block from the weapon rack. It was about a foot long and the width of an adult's palm.
"Oh, you can't use this." The referee shook his head. "This is a magical item called the Heaven Upheaval Seal. It was called the Heaven Upheaval Seal. Typical Yuan foundation realm warriors could release their Yuan Qi. Only when controlling a weapon can they use the Heaven Upheaval Seal. By injecting Yuan Qi into the Heaven Upheaval Seal, it can be used to kill! "
"Other than that. The Heaven Upheaval Seal has some exquisite arrays. If you do not know them, the power of the Heaven Upheaval Seal will be greatly reduced. "
No one believed that Yi Yun knew arrays. As for reaching the Yuan foundation realm, it was even more impossible. If he used the Heaven Upheaval Seal, he would naturally not be able to use its power.
"Is that so …" Yi Yun heard so much from the referee, but he did not take it to heart.
What Heaven Upheaval Seal? After explaining so much and giving it such a grand name, to put it bluntly, wasn't it just a brick?
What driving an object to kill? It was enough to smash a person's head.
Yi Yun held the Heaven Upheaval Seal and weighed it in his hand. It was huge and it was the same size as a brick. It was very comfortable to hold in his hand.
In Yi Yun's previous life, he had fought with people before. Holding the brick in his hand, Yi Yun seemed to find the feeling of the past.
"You really want to use the Heaven Upheaval Seal?"
The referee could not understand why Yi Yun was about to carry the Heaven Upheaval Seal onto the stage. He had explained it very clearly, but Yi Yun did not listen. What was he doing?
"Yes, I'll use it."
Yi Yun carried the brick and walked calmly onto the stage.
Seeing Yi Yun, this clown, the people from the Hongdao Association laughed so hard that they could not stand up straight.
Was he really here to compete and not to make a fool of himself?
To meet such a person with abnormal intelligence, one could not look at him like a normal person.
At this moment, even Zhou Kui, Song Zijun and company, who were very confident in Yi Yun, were stunned. They did not know what to do, much less the people from the Hongdao Association.
How would Yi Yun know anything about arrays? He could not use the Heaven Upheaval Seal!
"Can we begin?"
The arena's referee was very cultured. Even though such a strange scene had happened, he only gave Yi Yun an odd look. After that, he did not say anything else. He focused on the competition.
"Oh, right, I have something …" Yi Yun sure had a lot of things to ask of him. "I heard that your Hongdao Association has opened a betting pool. I previously bet 5000 dragon scale runes on myself fighting more than twenty rounds. I'm not sure if you can afford it?"
Regarding Yi Yun's competition, the highest payout was 1: 10 for Yi Yun to fight 20 rounds.
But the Tai Ah Divine City did not encourage gambling, which relied on luck to earn resources. Hence, there was a 40% tax, and there was a limit of 5000 dragon scale runes bet.
Yi Yun naturally bet the maximum. If he won, he would receive 50,000 dragon scale runes, but he would have to pay 20,000 dragon scale runes as tax.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the Hongdao Association could afford it.
In fact, 50,000 dragon scale runes was a huge sum even for an association like the Hongdao Association! After all, Li Hong was only a second year soldier.
"Hahahaha!"
Feng Hai was about to cry from laughing. More than 20 rounds?
He had always thought that Yi Yun had some ability, but looking at his amusing performance, Yi Yun was dreaming if he wanted to win more than 20 rounds!
The other Hongdao Association members were laughing even more miserably.
This rascal must be a joker hired by the ancient Spirit Ape!
He specially came here to give them dragon scale runes. And he even made them laugh. To meet such a good person. They were really too blessed.
"Alright, we can begin."
Yi Yun nodded. The referee officially announced the start of the match.
Everyone's eyes were on the Divine Wilderness Stage. They wanted to see how such a strange match would develop.
At this moment, Feng Hai stopped laughing.
Laughing was one thing, but Feng Hai still had to be alert for a real match. He had bet a thousand dragon scale runes and an interspatial ring on this match.
Li Hong had warned him time and time again not to underestimate his opponent, in case he failed miserably.
Although it seemed that Yi Yun was most likely a retard, even if he was facing a retard, he would still beat him up!
Feng Hai got into a fighting stance and began to move. He began to move quickly on the purple tungsten stage.
People only saw Feng Hai's figure blur before they heard a series of footsteps coming from the stage. "Ta Ta Ta Ta Ta …"
Feng Hai's speed was as fast as lightning. At the same time. He wantonly brandished his saber!
The golden saber slashed out a sharp saber Qi. The saber Qi tore through the air. It was ear-piercing!
"It's the Feng family's' Bell Tone Steps', 'Golden Wind Saber'!"
People in the stands said.
Most of the cultivators. Since they did not have enough dragon scale runes to exchange for cultivation techniques in the Tai Ah Divine City, they would most likely use their family's cultivation techniques.
Some family clans' family cultivation techniques were of high quality. Take the Feng family for example. As a large family clan in the capital, the 'Bell Tone Steps' and 'Golden Wind Saber' were their family's trump cards. Although Feng Hai's demonstration was just at the beginning stages, it was still very impressive!
After being praised by the surrounding elites, Feng Hai's vanity swelled. He was, after all, a thirteen-year-old youth. It was the age where he needed recognition the most. Feng Hai was very satisfied with the feeling of being the main character on stage.
He was no longer in a rush to attack Yi Yun. Instead, he wanted to demonstrate the power of his' Bell Tone Steps' and 'Golden Wind Saber'.
"The saber is fearless, the emperor of weapons. The bell tone is silent, the god travels a thousand miles …"
Feng Hai loudly recited the killing poems that the former Family Head had composed for the 'Bell Tone Steps' and 'Golden Wind Saber'. He valiantly charged at Yi Yun.
"Feng family's saber technique's first move – Golden Wind Dew!"
Feng Hai slashed down with his saber. This saber beam stirred up numerous golden winds, hence the name 'Golden Wind Dew'.
Instantly, the wind blew and clouds surged as countless saber flashes enveloped Yi Yun.
"Cha! Cha!
Cha! "The golden beams flashed and the purple tungsten ground was instantly filled with saber marks.
But at this moment, Yi Yun's body moved. He used the large success stage of Minute Subtlety. His body seemed to blend with the surrounding environment.
The Golden Wind Saber's saber beams were all dodged by him by a hair's breadth.
Feng Hai's saber was extremely fast. After all, it was the Feng family's heirloom saber technique. Once it was used, the saber beams were intricate and there was no pattern to it. To dodge, one had to calculate the trajectory of the saber beams.
But Yi Yun calmly stepped into the saber array's whirlwind. No matter how sharp the saber beams were, they did not injure him at all.
The surrounding audience were all elites. Their eyes were sharp, so they could clearly see Yi Yun's movements in the chaotic saber beams.
What!? He actually dodged it!?
Yi Yun's speed was too fast. He could pass through the dense saber beams. This movement technique was … terrifying!
And at this moment, Yi Yun's figure disappeared!
"Huh!?"
Feng Hai's heart skipped a beat as his pupils constricted!
When Yi Yun dodged his first wave of saber winds, he was already on high alert. Now, seeing Yi Yun suddenly disappear, Feng Hai did not even think as he used the Bell Tone Steps and flew backwards!
He wanted to open up a distance and plan out his next move. But just as he leaped backwards, he suddenly felt a faint killing intent coming from behind him. Yi Yun's footsteps moved and he appeared behind Feng Hai!
The audience was shocked by this scene!
How could this be!?
Before people could exclaim, they saw Yi Yun raise his hand and with the brick in his hand, no, the Heaven Upheaval Seal, he smashed it down at the back of Feng Hai's head.
Go!
"Peng!"
The crisp sound was like the sound of a polo stick hitting a polo ball.
Feng Hai was about to turn his head when he felt a shock at the back of his head. It was like a heavy hammer had smashed into him.
Following that, the world spun around him as he felt dizzy. His eyes were seeing stars.
Feng Hai's retreating body had been smashed down by Yi Yun's brick!
Feng Hai fell to the ground. He barely managed to use his golden saber to support himself. He felt a sticky patch at the back of his head. It was obvious that he was bleeding.
What … What happened …
Feng Hai's mind was sluggish from the beating. He could not react to many things. His body swayed as he turned his head with great difficulty. He wanted to see how Yi Yun had attacked him, but his vision was already blurry. Yi Yun's figure seemed a little blurry …
"Oh? That's quite strong … "
Yi Yun paused and looked surprised. Without any hesitation, he lifted the brick and smashed it down again.
This time, the brick smashed into Feng Hai's head.
"Peng!"
It was like a ripe watermelon being cracked open. It was crisp and clean!
Feng Hai, who did not manage to see Yi Yun clearly, felt his vision go black. His body was like a strand of loose noodles that had been picked up by chopsticks. He had lost all his strength.
He twisted and struggled a few times before collapsing to the ground, foaming at the mouth as his limbs twitched.
The blood on Feng Hai's head flowed down and quickly formed a pool.
The surrounding people were dumbfounded. Yi Yun had used the Heaven Upheaval Seal as a brick. With two consecutive bricks, he had defeated Feng Hai, who had used "Bell Tone Steps" and "Golden Wind Saber"!
All those fancy moves had been defeated by … the brick!!
The great Feng Hai, one of the Capital's Four Overlords, had been defeated by Yi Yun. This was …
Unbearable!
As for the Hongdao Association's members, especially the other three of the Four Overlords, their mouths were agape. Their eyes stared straight as if they were petrified. They could not say a word.
Just a moment ago, they were laughing so hard that they could not stand up straight. Now, they could not even cry.
What … What the hell happened?
… (To be continued.)
