"Of course, Ye Feng has reportedly broken through again. Among so many people, Ye Jun Tian is probably the weakest. All the other contestants are at least at the Sixth Pulse stage, let alone Ye Hua and Ye Hong, who are both at the Lower Rank Martial Realm," Ye Hua said.
"You seven are the leaders of the young generation in the Ye Family, representing the highest level of martial arts among our young generation. The selection for the young group in the City Lord Competition will be held among you. Of course, it will still be based on ranking, with the top three entering the young group to participate in the City Lord Competition. Moreover, to increase the rewards this time, the Elders' Council has decided to take out a high-quality Fire Sparrow Bloodline Ore left by our ancestors to reward the first place. The second place will receive a second-rank 'Blood Break Pill.' Of course, this second-rank is somewhat discounted. It's not truly at the second rank, but it is the best quality among the first-rank Blood Break Pills, with its blood-breaking ability almost reaching the second rank. The third place...," Ye Tianhao, the family head, announced with a stern face.
"The difficulty of this competition will be increased," Ye Jinxiong said seriously, suddenly pointing to the side. "Do you see? The competition area is this platform. The pile of rocks about a mile wide on the side is the 'platform.' I need to give you seven a reminder. These rocks are very sharp. Even if you don't get hit, falling into them will still injure you. Therefore, you must be cautious during the competition, but of course, you can't lack boldness. This is a testing ground to hone your courage and bravery. If anyone feels they don't have the confidence, they can withdraw early to avoid getting hurt."
"Waste! You should withdraw from the competition. Do you really want to be humiliated?" Ye Hua shouted at Ye Jun Tian arrogantly.
"Waste! It's better to withdraw early. Otherwise, if Ye Hong and the others slap you and you end up paralyzed, it won't be worth it," Ye Dongtian, wrapped in bandages like a living mummy, said sarcastically.
"Brother Jun Tian, we believe in you. Go for it," Ye Li waved her fist.
"That's right, Second Young Master, go for it. You are always the first, always the dark horse," Ye Xie also waved his fist.
"Ha, first place? If I don't come in last this time, I'll let you use my head as a hammer," Ye Hua shouted.
"That's right, if a waste can come in first, I'll kowtow to him three times," Ye Dongtian shouted.
"Start the draw!" the Elder Ye Jinxiong announced.
The seven people drew lots.
The first match was between Ye Bing and Ye Feng.
Both chose a relatively flat green stone to stand on, about ten meters apart. The area between them was filled with jagged rocks.
Ye Feng's body trembled, and blood energy surged out. Six blood vessels became prominent.
"Indeed, he has reached the Sixth Pulse stage. Ye Bing is said to be about the same. They are in for a tough battle," Ye Suizhao said.
"I think Ye Bing has a higher chance. Although Ye Feng has broken through to the Sixth Pulse stage, Ye Bing broke through long ago," Ye Quan said.
Suddenly, Ye Feng extended her arm, which looked like a javelin from a distance. Her fingers were tightly pinched into a sharp spear-like shape. A burst of blood energy infused her hand, causing the air in front of her palm to tremble slightly.
"General's Palm. I didn't expect the Elder to get 'General's Palm' for Ye Feng. He must have spent a lot of crystal coins," Ye Suizhao sighed.
"That's right. 'General's Palm' can be bought at the 'Heavenly River Association,' but it's extremely expensive. It's a high-grade Heaven Rank martial technique. The Elder really spent a lot of money," Ye Quan said, his face showing envy.
"Ye Bing looks a bit strange," Ye Suizhao said.
"Yes, it is a bit strange. I've never seen such a strange posture," Ye Quan also nodded.
Because Ye Feng used her most powerful 'General's Palm' right away, it was clear that she knew her blood energy concentration was inferior to Ye Bing's.
Therefore, she wanted to end the fight quickly with a fast attack. If the fight dragged on, her stamina would be depleted, putting her at a disadvantage. Ye Feng's choice was wise.
Ye Bing's body leaned forward, and his joints cracked as if his body had suddenly folded into several sections.
It looked like he was performing a space dance. His palm was spread out in a snake-like shape, and a faint, barely visible blood energy flowed between his fingers, causing the air in front of his snake-shaped palm to tremble.
"Father, it seems Ye Bing can release blood energy externally. However, it's very faint. It's probably a forced breakthrough under external influence," Ye Jun Tian could see clearly with his penetrating eyes.
"Ye Bing went on a long trip a few days ago. When he returned, his injuries were not only healed, but he also broke through. It's likely that his mysterious master used some secret technique to infuse high-quality, powerful blood energy, helping him awaken his blood consciousness and enter the Lower Rank Martial Realm. However, his momentum is still not as strong as a true Lower Rank Martial Realm. After all, a forced awakening of blood consciousness only indicates good luck. Artificial methods are ultimately inferior. Ye Bing's blood energy quality and storage are clearly not as good as a true Lower Rank Martial Realm," Ye Qingshao said.
"I'm a bit like him. It will be a good fight," Ye Jun Tian said softly.
"Ye Feng will definitely lose," Ye Qingshao said. Ye Jun Tian noticed that Elder Ye Jinxiong had also seen it, and the old man's mouth twitched slightly.
At this moment, Ye Feng's accumulated blood energy reached its peak. She moved, but her movements were not fast. Her body lunged forward forcefully, and her palm thrust forward, creating a gust of wind that rushed toward Ye Bing.
Ye Bing also moved, and his snake-shaped palm suddenly expanded again, as if the joints in his hand had been forcibly opened. The distance between his fingers reached an unprecedented width.
Crack...
A sharp sound echoed, and Ye Feng's General's Palm was caught by Ye Bing's snake palm. Then, Ye Bing swung to the side, and Ye Feng's body was thrown out. Ye Bing followed up with a kick to Ye Feng's waist.
Ye Feng screamed and fell into the pile of rocks, her legs cut by several blood gashes. She panted heavily, as the General's Palm had consumed about 70% of her strength. The attack was ineffective, and she almost fell on the sharp rocks.
"Great job!" Ye Shan clapped and cheered, but he was immediately glared at by Elder Ye Jinxiong. Ye Shan's face turned awkward, and he dared not cheer loudly again.
The disciples of the Ye Family knew that Ye Feng was Elder Ye Jinxiong's granddaughter, so the applause was sparse.
"Great job, Ye Bing!" Unexpectedly, Ye Jun Tian joined in, leading the applause. Immediately, all of Ye Qingshao's lineage followed, making Elder Ye Jinxiong's face turn dark.
Ye Jun Tian didn't care and continued clapping.
"Thank you!" Ye Bing bowed.
The second match was between Ye Feng and Ye Qinglian.
These two are the leaders of the young disciples in the Ye Family. They have never officially determined who is stronger, so the disciples of the Ye Family are quite eager to see who is stronger.
Their elders are Family Head Ye Tianhao and Elder Ye Jinxiong, the two most powerful elders in the Ye Family. They seem to have similar wealth and power, but as the family head, Ye Tianhao is slightly stronger.
Ye Feng used all the medium-grade Heaven Rank martial techniques of the Ye Family, and Ye Qinglian was in a similar situation. Because their elders had power, they could also obtain good martial techniques for their juniors in private.
Recently, for some reason, the chapters become one paragraph after uploading, which is quite frustrating. I have to edit each chapter, so please bear with me.
