"Ha! When I fight, I don't hold back. If I accidentally kick you to death, will I have to pay with my life? Besides, since it's a competition, there should be a prize, right? Otherwise, what's the point!"
Boom! The moment Yun Mo said this, the scene erupted!
"Haha!" A hearty laugh, Wen Peng laughed in anger.
"Good! I, Wen Peng, representing the Purple Mist City guards, will speak clearly. Since we are in Purple Leaf City, wielding weapons is indeed inappropriate. We respect the Lord of Purple Leaf City very much. So, let's just use our fists and feet. Of course, in a martial arts match, life and death are left to fate! As for the prize?"
He glanced at his young master!
The handsome young man nodded slowly! With this, Wen Peng felt more confident and continued, "That red-eyed demon horse is priceless, and you've ruined it. If you can knock out all of us guards, you won't have to compensate for the demon horse. If you lose, we don't want your gold coins. Just kneel before me and call me 'Grandpa.' How about it, dare you?"
Oh my! Everyone became excited upon hearing this, "This is a fight for dignity, does Captain Wen have a chance to win?"
"Don't agree to it!" Liu Mengmeng shouted from the crowd.
Yun Mo turned and smiled at his little sister, then said loudly, "Using the red-eyed demon horse as the stake is fair, but calling you 'Grandpa' is out of the question. My ancestors wouldn't have someone like you! If I lose, Wen Junlai's life will belong to Purple Mist City, to be disposed of as you see fit. How about that?"
"Good, straightforward, it's settled!" Wen Peng barely suppressed his anger at being called a bastard and immediately agreed to the match. He thought, "I must crush this guy to vent my anger. Tonight has really pissed me off!"
He gave a signal to the person on his left. A short but sturdy young man, built like a brick, walked up steadily, made a guard salute to Yun Mo, and said in a deep voice, "I am Captain Zhao Chong of the Purple Mist City guards. Please, Captain Wen, show me your skills!"
Since Yun Mo had boldly challenged all the Purple Mist City guards, these guys were prepared to use a relay strategy to crush him. After all, he was asking for it!
Boos erupted! Only then did the surrounding Purple Leaf City guards notice that the number of participants and the rules had not been specified. They had assumed Wen Peng was the representative of the Purple Mist City guards, but now it seemed they were planning a relay attack!
"Shameless, despicable!" The shouts around them were deafening!
Wen Peng's frown relaxed. As a martial artist, the goal is to defeat the opponent, and everything else is a means to that end! Since Yun Mo had referred to "you" and "you" in the plural, anyone from Purple Mist City could step up! If not for the emotions of the surrounding Purple Leaf City guards, a wave of 200 guards could have crushed this arrogant guy! After all, who asked for such arrogance? It's not us being shameless!
These battle-hardened warriors wouldn't care about fairness or righteousness! They would fight in a way that was advantageous to them.
"This pretty boy's arrogance is shocking! Who knows if he has some secret technique?" Wen Peng, a seasoned veteran, wouldn't be careless. He didn't want to lose and look foolish!
Don't be fooled by this old man's muscular appearance; he's not simple-minded. He's devious!
Yun Mo wasn't surprised. He had anticipated Wen Peng's move. As long as the 200 guards didn't swarm him, Yun Mo wasn't afraid!
"Captain Zhao Chong, right? Please!" Yun Mo looked at the silver thread on the other's sleeve, indicating his captain status, returned the salute, and then stood with his feet apart, one hand in front and one behind, in a Wing Chun stance. However, the internal cultivation technique he was running was the Violent Thunder Vajra Body technique!
Whoosh! Yun Mo's body visibly swelled! An overwhelmingly powerful aura surged from his entire body, making him feel like a mountain suddenly pressing down, causing a suffocating sensation!
Good! The surrounding Purple Leaf City guards, all of them martial artists, could see that despite Yun Mo's cultivation being reduced to Fourth Rank Tian You, he wasn't to be underestimated! At least, the short and sturdy Sixth Rank Tian You captain in front of him would find it difficult to win!
Hmm? Even the ugly man and the other nobles sitting and drinking tea, watching the show, showed surprise in their eyes, their playful expressions turning serious!
The only one who didn't change was the sickly-looking beauty. She watched Yun Mo calmly, her face as expressionless as usual, but a golden light flashed in her eyes. She muttered to herself, in a voice so low that even her brother couldn't hear, "Interesting, it's Wing Chun! This young man is quite intriguing! But which year are you from?" She fell into deep thought.
Yun Mo had anticipated that the girl would recognize his stance. This was what he hoped for. After all, coming from the same time and place, it's natural to be excited to meet a fellow countryman. This was his way of greeting her.
Every Tian You level martial artist has a varying degree of radiance on their body! This is the external manifestation of their internal energy. Below Tian Yun, martial artists can't conceal their energy, so it's easy to judge their cultivation level!
For example, Zhao Chong in front of him had a faint layer of radiance on his body, clearly indicating his Sixth Rank Tian You cultivation. Wen Peng was much more advanced, at least Eighth Rank Tian You! The few behind him were Sixth and Seventh Rank, which was why these captains followed Wen Peng's orders!
Yun Mo, however, had given these people a mysterious impression! They hadn't seen any radiance on his body before! Generally, this could mean two things: either Yun Mo had a cultivation level above Tian Yun, with his energy concealed, or he had no cultivation at all!
It wasn't until Yun Mo deliberately revealed his cultivation level that these people realized this pretty boy was only Fourth Rank Tian You! This led them to consider a third possibility: he had a technique to hide his cultivation! This alone made them take him seriously, as such techniques were closely guarded secrets of major forces!
Since Yun Mo had a method to conceal his aura, he might have even more powerful techniques or a powerful figure backing him! To be safe, Wen Peng decided to use a relay strategy, regardless of his reputation. It must be said, the old man was cunning, and his concerns were now realized!
Seeing Yun Mo's strange stance and the bizarre changes in his body, his aura rising to an incredible level, even though his cultivation was still Fourth Rank, no Purple Mist City guard dared to underestimate him. Everyone instinctively stepped back, clearing a space of nearly a hundred square meters. Zhao Chong, in front of him, was fully alert, his left foot forward and right foot back, in the best stance for both offense and defense, ready to see what this arrogant Purple Leaf City captain had to offer!
"Forgive me!" Yun Mo shouted, no longer hesitating, and launched his attack!
