Chapter 4

"Is that so? Your good-for-nothing son also came to listen to the lecture? Can he even understand it?" Bai He saw the situation and took the opportunity to mock.

"Let's go and see."

Bai Qingshan said calmly and walked over.

"Little friend, please continue," Gu Cao raised his hand to stop the boiling crowd, signaling Bai Ye to continue.

Bai Ye nodded and said with confidence, "The soul power of a person is produced by the Heavenly Soul, but soul power is merely a form of human energy used to enhance various aspects of a person. If a person's physical body has already reached a terrifying level, even if the soul power is thin, the combat power remains terrifying. Master Gu, do you agree?"

"Bullshit! You, who don't even have soul power, what do you know? Sit down quickly!" Bai Mu said angrily.

"Get out of here quickly, this place is not for you!" Many of the Bai family's descendants stood up, shouting at Bai Ye, and some were even eager to come and teach him a lesson.

These soul cultivators hadn't asked any questions, but this guy who hadn't awakened his Heavenly Soul spoke up, which they found very embarrassing.

"Shut up!"

At this moment, Bai Ye suddenly turned his head and shouted at the Bai family's descendants.

Although the voice wasn't loud, it was deep and heavy, making everyone's eardrums feel like they were about to burst, and their heads buzzed.

Everyone looked at Bai Ye in surprise, finding it hard to believe.

This voice was so powerful! Was this the same Bai Ye who used to be quiet and reserved?

But seeing Bai Ye's eyes round with anger, glaring at these people, "Do you still know how to respect your teacher? Do you still respect Master Gu? Master Gu allows free questions, but does he allow you to chatter and curse here? You are disgracing the Bai family!"

Everyone was stunned. These people had been cursing Bai Ye for not knowing the rules and asking questions recklessly, but now they were being scolded by Bai Ye, and he was standing on the side of the master, so no one dared to argue.

Gu Cao, who was watching from the side, felt as if he was being used as a tool by this kid?

Bai Mu was furious, stood up, and bowed to Gu Cao, "Master Gu, we did not mean to offend, please forgive us!"

"No problem, no problem," Gu Cao waved his hand, not caring.

But Bai Mu didn't give up. He turned his head and stared at Bai Ye, saying coldly, "Master Gu, perhaps you don't know, this person is not a soul cultivator. We have a reason to make him shut up. A person who hasn't awakened his Heavenly Soul is pointing and criticizing in front of so many soul cultivators. Isn't this indirectly insulting us?"

"Not a soul cultivator?" Gu Cao was slightly surprised and turned to look at Bai Ye.

"Does one have to be a soul cultivator to sit here and listen to the lecture?" Bai Ye asked.

"Whether you are a soul cultivator or not is not important. As long as you think what I am saying is useful to you, that's enough," Gu Cao said. "Alright, everyone, sit down. We don't have much time, let's continue the lecture."

But Bai Mu was still not giving up.

"Master Gu, you are magnanimous and won't mind Bai Ye, but to avoid affecting others' listening, I must ask Bai Ye to leave. Otherwise, everyone sitting here might not be able to concentrate on the lecture."

He walked straight to Bai Ye, his expression grim.

"This isn't good..." Gu Cao frowned.

Bai Ye, however, remained calm, not showing any panic as Bai Mu approached. "Ask me to leave? Fine, if you can make me leave, I won't listen to the lecture."

"Oh?"

Gu Cao became interested, and the people around him were also excited.

Bai Chen wanted to step forward to stop, but was held back by Bai Qingshan. Bai Chen was puzzled, but saw Bai Qingshan shake his head, "Let's see."

Bai Chen looked at Bai Ye, seeing his eyes were extremely calm, almost frighteningly so, and his posture was subtly adjusting.

Does Bai Ye have the confidence to deal with Bai Mu?

Bai Mu gathered his momentum, quickly approached, and reached out to grab Bai Ye's neck.

"Get out!" Bai Mu roared, his hand like an eagle's claw.

Bai Ye could feel the sharpness of the other's palm, like a knife, but... the speed was too slow...

He twisted his steps, his body moving nimbly to stick to Bai Mu, avoiding the claw, and his elbow hit Bai Mu's chest.

Thud!

Bai Mu's body fell backward, landing on the ground, sprawled out.

Bai Ye's reaction... was so fast!

Bai Mu, lying on the ground, was stunned.

He came to his senses, furious, and jumped up, activating his soul power, and charged at Bai Ye like a madman.

Bai Ye coldly snorted, spotting a weakness, bent down, easily avoided Bai Mu's attack, and slapped his chest with a powerful force, sending Bai Mu into the mud, looking very disheveled.

Bai Ye stood calmly, hands behind his back, not exerting much effort.

Silence.

The scene was silent, and all the Bai family members looked at Bai Mu as if they were petrified.

If Bai Ye's previous fall of Bai Mu was due to underestimation, what about now?

"Recently, I heard that Bai Ye single-handedly defeated four people at the second stage of the Force Soul Realm! I thought it was a rumor, but it seems to be true..."

"When did Bai Ye become so strong?"

The Bai family members murmured.

Gu Cao nodded repeatedly, his eyes filled with admiration.

The expressions of Bai Qingshan, Bai He, and others in the distance were varied.

Bai Mu, crawling out of the mud, eyes red like a beast, wanted to charge at Bai Ye again but was stopped by Gu Cao.

"Little friend, stop."

"Master..."

"If he had soul power, you would be seriously injured," Gu Cao shook his head.

"Let alone soul power, if I had a dagger in my hand just now, you would be dead!" Bai Ye said calmly. "I may not have soul power, but I know how to train my body. What I discussed with Master Gu is about the human body. Why can't I sit here and listen to the lecture?"

Bai Mu's face turned red and white, truly embarrassed.

Bai Ye seemed not to be satisfied, stepping out of the crowd, staring at the Bai family members, and said coldly, "I know that all of you look down on me, Bai Ye, thinking I can't cultivate soul power and am a good-for-nothing. But I want to tell you that a true strong person doesn't focus on those weaker than themselves. If you really think you are great, go and step on Ye Qian. Don't show off your power on me! Of course, if you like to find superiority in me, I don't mind. I accept any challenge from anyone here! And at any time!"

After saying this, Bai Ye bowed to Gu Cao and returned to his seat, sitting cross-legged.

The Bai family members looked at him in shock.

Today's Bai Ye... was really arrogant!!

The surroundings were silent for a long time, and Bai Ye secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, my status in the family should be somewhat improved, right?

"Good!!"

At this moment, a loud voice came from a distance.

Bai Ye followed the sound and saw Bai Qingshan and others walking over, and it was his father, Bai Chen, who spoke.

"Dad!" Bai Ye stood up.

Bai Chen laughed heartily, "No wonder you are my son! Even without soul power, you are not someone these people can bully!"

Everyone was both ashamed and angry.

"Salute the family head!" The Bai family members and guards stood up and saluted Bai Qingshan as he approached.

Gu Cao also came over to salute but was stopped by Bai Qingshan.

"Master Gu, your coming to teach in the Bai family is a blessing for us. But why did the teaching stop?" Bai Qingshan smiled. "Is it because the Bai family's descendants are too unruly? Master Gu, please speak freely. Anyone who dares to offend you will be punished by me."

"Family head, you are too kind. The Bai family is indeed the first family in Luocheng, with many talented people. I thought Zixin was already very good, but these young people are all excellent," Gu Cao smiled.

Bai Qingshan was delighted, "Master, I have already ordered a banquet to be set up. Today, we should drink more with you. Please join us!"

"Thank you for your kindness, but I need to visit other disciples' homes later and can't stay long. I apologize."

Gu Cao bowed, suddenly turned, and walked toward Bai Ye.

Gu Cao stopped in front of Bai Ye and smiled, "Little friend, though you don't have soul power, your aura is extraordinary, and your insight is unique. Your understanding of the human body is very interesting. I wonder if you are interested in joining our Absolute Soul Sect?"

"What? Master Gu... actually invited that good-for-nothing to join the Absolute Soul Sect..."

"When we asked Master Gu to join the Absolute Soul Sect, he required us to go through the normal procedures, but he has never actively invited anyone..."

"Yes, even Bai Mo didn't have this treatment..."

The young people of the Bai family, hearing this, were both jealous and unwilling.

"Thank you for your kindness, Master, but as you know, I haven't awakened my Heavenly Soul, and I fear it would be useless to join the sect," Bai Ye pretended to sigh, testing the waters with this statement.

Gu Cao, hearing this, looked regretful, thought for a moment, and still didn't want to give up, "Little friend, not awakening your Heavenly Soul by eighteen might be due to some physical issue. Although I don't know how to diagnose it, there are many talented people in the sect. If you don't mind, you can go to the Absolute Soul Sect for treatment. There might be a solution. Of course, even if it can't be treated, it doesn't matter. Our sect also has a deep understanding of body training, and you can cultivate there."

Bai Ye nodded secretly. The people of the Absolute Soul Sect were quite practical and didn't look down on people without a Heavenly Soul. He could join, but he still needed to deal with Ye Qian's issue and couldn't leave yet.

"Can I think about it for a few days?"

"If you are willing, you can come to the Absolute Soul Sect to find me at any time. Of course, I will be in Luocheng for the next few days," Gu Cao said, turning to leave.

Everyone looked at Bai Ye with surprise.

This guy... is actually still thinking about it??

Bai Qingshan looked at Bai Ye meaningfully.

Bai Chen was stunned, but heard Bai He laugh lightly, "Third brother, I think your son not only can't cultivate soul power but also has some issues with his brain!"

After saying this, everyone left.

......

......

After the martial field lecture, no one in the Bai family dared to look down on this young master who couldn't cultivate soul power, especially since he could easily defeat Bai Mu, who was at the third stage of the Force Soul Realm.

Gu Cao's lecture was very helpful to Bai Ye, solving many problems in soul cultivation. After all, a master is a master, and even a few words were like gold. His words made Bai Ye's understanding of soul power more profound.

The ten-day period finally arrived.

The Ye family set up a platform at the Bai family's gate early in the morning. This battle not only attracted the attention of the entire Luocheng but also many heroes from the surrounding areas.

The sun was high in the sky, and the scorching light seemed to be roasting this border city.

The gate of the Bai family was crowded with people, and a platform slowly rose.

Behind the platform sat a group of people in luxurious clothing. Servants held leaves to shield them from the sun, and tables in front of them were set with tea and snacks, making them very comfortable.

The Ye family!

The organizers of this battle!

Everyone's eyes were on the center of the Ye family group, where a girl with stunning beauty sat quietly.

Ye Qian!

The pride of Luocheng! The center of attention!

Today would be the day she became famous!
