"My senior brother accepted his challenge out of curiosity, but accidentally exposed some of his tricks."
Another man suddenly said.
When others thought about the little trick he mentioned, they quickly came up with something.
However, many people did not agree with his statement.
One of the women even said, "Li Yin is not a weakling. Although he cannot be compared with Senior Brother, but... he fought thirteen alone. This battle record is enough to prove his strength. Senior Brother, be careful."
"I see."
Ye Chengyuan smiled slightly: "A lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit, not to mention that for a genius like Li Bin who is already at the top of martial arts at the age of 23, using all our strength is both a respect for him and a respect for martial arts."
After hearing what Ye Chengyuan said, the others also felt relieved.
While they were communicating, they soon arrived at the edge of the arena.
In the arena, in addition to the original two Star Refiners, Zhang Songbai, one of the top leaders, was also responsible for maintaining order and carrying out rescue operations.
This top star refiner nodded slightly when he saw Ye Chengyuan coming.
Ye Chengyuan also bowed slightly without being arrogant.
Although he thought that with his talent, he would sooner or later be able to break through the threshold of life and death from a Martial Saint to a Star Refiner, complete the sublimation of his spiritual will in the process of refining Qi and transforming his spirit into a spirit, and visualize the Star God, but before he became a top Star Refiner, he had to recognize his own identity.
The people around Ye Chengyuan followed suit and bowed slightly, then soon discovered something.
"Li Yin... hasn't come yet?"
Han Chixiao said this, his brows quickly frowned.
"This guy really doesn't know the rules. He was the one who challenged Senior Brother Ye to a duel, but Senior Brother Ye arrived and he hasn't. He even wants Senior Brother Ye to wait for him?"
Another person followed suit.
Ye Chengyuan himself was also somewhat unhappy.
But after looking at the current time, he still said, "We are here too early. The time written on the post is 11 a.m., and there are still ten minutes to 11 a.m. It's okay, just wait patiently."
His open-mindedness further highlights Li Bin's ignorance of the seriousness of the matter.
Many people also spoke out, saying that he was too arrogant and did not respect his opponents.
Even Zhang Songbai shook his head.
Lee Min…
I'm afraid I'm really a little bit over the top.
Fortunately, this atmosphere did not last long.
A few minutes before the agreed time on the post, accompanied by a commotion, Li Bin finally came over accompanied by Zhang Yuesheng and Su Feiyu.
Li Pin was a little surprised to see that Zhang Songbai was the host of the competition today, but considering Ye Chengyuan's importance, he nodded in understanding.
"Let's start now."
Zhang Songbai said.
Li Yin nodded.
He took a false step and went straight onto the arena.
"etc!"
At this time, Zhang Songbai suddenly shouted: "Where is your sword?"
Not only him, but others, including Ye Chengyuan, discovered that Li Pin did not wear a sword when he went on stage.
"My boxing skills are not inferior to my swordsmanship."
Li Yin explained.
"Swordsmanship and boxing are similar... or even when swordsmanship is inferior to boxing, the difference in lethality between having a sword and not having a sword is huge."
Ye Chengyuan said from the audience.
He glanced at Su Feiyu, who had brought the sword for Li Yin and looked somewhat helpless, and said calmly, "Use the sword."
"Ye Chengyuan, I know that your strongest skill is the Nineteen Swords of Longyuan, and you have already mastered this sword art to the highest level three years ago. In addition, you should be a gifted person. I estimate... your Qi and Health value will not be less than 48 points."
Li Yin looked at Ye Chengyuan and said, "So, please don't worry that I will underestimate you because I don't know your strengths and weaknesses! After all... to underestimate you, the number one on the Dragon Transformation Ranking, is almost like looking down on the entire Dragon Gate Pavilion."
"So what are you waiting for?"
Ye Chengyuan pointed at the sword that belonged to Li Pin on Su Feiyu's body and said, "Let me see if your swordsmanship is as good as your age, with high spirits and sharp edges."
"Perhaps, you will say that I am arrogant, but..."
Li Yin's tone was sincere: "I am really strong now. Even if I fight you, I can only feel the joy of fighting when I am unarmed."
As soon as these words were spoken, the originally noisy atmosphere in the field suddenly became quiet as if it had fallen silent.
Everyone, including Zhang Xujin, Cang Yunxiao, Liu Chixiao and others, all looked at Li Pin in amazement.
For a moment, I couldn't utter a word.
After several seconds, a middle-aged man next to the Great Sun Saint couldn't help but ask: "Has he always been so brave? Does he know what the three words 'Ye Chengyuan' mean in Longmen Pavilion? Or... does he really think that he is invincible just because he won the championship in the world's number one martial arts competition in the youth category?"
The Sun Saint and Master Zhao Yu both had blank expressions on their faces.
Even a little bit want to laugh.
That's right.
Lee Min…
He is the kind of person who can make his opponent's blood pressure surge with just a few words.
Although many times what he said was later proved to be true and his expression was full of sincerity.
but…
It's just infuriating.
Especially when he reminded you to be careful, it was really for your better performance. You couldn't help but punch him, but you still lost in the end...
I just want to ask you if you are angry.
"This Li Pin..."
Zhang Songbai didn't know what to say.
Anyone who hears this will shake their head.
"Li Pin!"
At this time, Ye Chengyuan shouted: "You..."
"It's not that I'm arrogant."
Li Yin waved his hand: "Time will prove that what I said is true."
He made a gesture of invitation and said, "Go to the stage. No words can be as effective as actual action."
"I'll help you!"
Ye Chengyuan didn't wait for others to speak, he jumped up and stepped directly onto the arena.
"please."
Li Pin bowed.
Then he couldn't help but add: "But I still have to remind you to use your strongest swordsmanship, at least... to inspire my fighting spirit."
“clang!”
In response to him, Ye Chengyuan drew his sword suddenly, and as the blood pill exploded, his blood and qi boiled, and the sword intent soared into the sky.
Just as he had said before on the stage, for a genius like Li Bin who was already at the pinnacle of martial arts at the age of 23, using all his strength was both a respect for him and a respect for martial arts.
not to mention…
Li Yin's words have directly increased his status to the maximum!
He not only did this with his hands, he also thought the same in his heart.
At the moment he drew his sword, he instantly entered a state of true unity of knowledge and action.
The high degree of integration of spirit, energy, blood and will made the moment he swung his sword appear unprecedentedly brilliant and dazzling.
Wherever the sword pointed, the space where Li Pin was located seemed to be completely blocked, and the air flow around him seemed to be completely solidified.
No matter which direction he hides in next, he will face a more fierce pursuit due to his advantage in sword-wielding.
In addition to resisting head-on...
There is no other way to break the impasse except to resist this sword, which is equivalent to a peerless martial arts saint combining all his energy, blood, spirit, and will.
"Ye Chengyuan's sword..."
Zhang Songbai looked at this scene and couldn't help but sigh.
But before he could finish his words, he saw Li Yin take action.
Don't dodge or evade.
He didn't even use the secret method that could temporarily enter the sublimation state. He just used the blood pill and the secret technique of burning blood to make himself seem like a volcano. The terrifying power of qi and blood followed his move, and it seemed as if the heaven and earth were covered by rolling volcanic ash.
Covering the sky and the sun!
Ye Chengyuan's sword intent and sword light were so bright and brilliant that they seemed to be able to burn other people's minds. When they slashed into the billowing smoke formed by a volcanic eruption, it was like pouring magma into the sea.
Although it created visible ripples and violent power, this sword...
But it slowed down at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The violent force contained in it was rapidly collided and dissipated by an invisible force.
So when the sword reached Li Bin, not only was its speed greatly reduced, but its power was also reduced to only one tenth of its original strength.
He just flicked his finger in front of Ye Chengyuan...
"Bang!"
A muffled sound like thunder exploded from the place where Li Pin's fingers collided with Ye Chengyuan's sword.
Accompanied by the sound of metal colliding and bursts of flames.
Ye Chengyuan's sword seemed to be hit by a hammer weighing thousands of pounds. The violent force was transmitted to his sword-holding arm through an invisible medium, even exceeding the limit of what his arm could support.
Following the waves of air that burst out in all directions, the dragon son that Longmen Pavilion had spent huge efforts to train was forced to retreat nine steps.
He retreated nearly ten meters before he finally stopped.
The people of Longmen Pavilion, who were originally dissatisfied with Li Bin's arrogance and were waiting to see Ye Chengyuan, the insurmountable mountain of Longmen Pavilion, defeat him with a crushing force, suddenly leaned forward.
Some people couldn't help but take a step forward.
Looking at Ye Chengyuan who was defeated so easily, his eyes were full of disbelief.
Even Zhang Songbai, a top star refiner, had his expression suddenly frozen.
"How could it be..."
The person in front of me is not Zhou Heng, nor is he Zhao Yunlong or Fang Ziyu.
he…
It’s Ye Chengyuan!
The number one expert in Longmen Pavilion!
It took more than ten years and a huge amount of resources to cultivate a peerless martial saint who is said to be able to compete with Wang Liancheng for the throne of the King of the Century!
The result is...
"How is it possible..."
Not only Zhang Songbai and others, but Ye Chengyuan himself was also severely shocked.
He thought that he had already exerted all his strength in that sword strike just now...
Except for not using the secret technique desperately, this sword still used all the strength of when he was in excellent condition.
Even if he were to do it again, he might not be able to replicate it exactly.
But the result...
It's like encountering a mountain!
A…
There is no way to climb or cross the mountain with swords and courage!
Li Yin stood there, watching Ye Chengyuan who had taken nine steps back to regain his balance. He did not pursue him, but said in a calm tone, "This attack may let you know who you are fighting against. If it weren't for the duel, I would have only taken the opportunity to attack and you would have been dead. Therefore, the truly arrogant one has never been me, but you."
He stretched out his hand and beckoned to Ye Chengyuan: "Use the secret technique."
I don't have any drafts saved, all of this is live code, and I only have time to revise it once, so I have to rely on everyone's help to find any missed typos.
