Meng Chen Dies, Beast Tide Erupts!

At this moment.

Everyone in the Meng Clan was utterly certain.

Among this group, Ye Fan, who came from an ordinary family, seemed to hold the greatest say.

Because Meng Xiong had met the captain of the Star Martial Hall squad before.

Yet he was unwaveringly supporting Ye Fan.

Moreover, judging from the information that had been revealed, that Ye Family boy, Ye Fan, had definitely joined Star Martial Hall.

Coupled with the news from Captain Gu of Candle Flame Martial Hall's Jiangning Office, the one who had activated Martial Warrior Diamond-tier Clearance was definitely this silver-spear youngster!

An eighteen-year-old youngster had obtained Diamond-tier Clearance in Star Martial Hall, one of the world's three greatest Martial Halls!

What did that represent?

The answer was self-evident.

As one of Jiangning City's foremost figures, Meng Xiong knew that Ye Fan had already risen to the summit of Jiangning City!

He could only be befriended, never offended!

Meng Xiong swiftly made his decision.

"Ye Fan, my name is Meng Hui. I'm also a student from Jiangning No. 1 Middle School participating in the Jiangnan Martial University Trial Camp."

At this moment.

Meng Hui stepped forward.

He hoped to use their relationship as schoolmates to close the distance between himself and Ye Fan.

"What a coincidence. We meet again."

Meng Hui reined in his pride, along with his former prejudice against Ye Fan.

In merely one day, Ye Fan's transformation had left him stunned.

Hearing this, Ye Fan nodded.

This Meng Hui was also one of the prominent figures among Jiangning No. 1 Middle School's third-year students—handsome, talented, and backed by a powerful family.

He was the prince charming chased after by countless female students.

However, Ye Fan remembered that at the Jiangnan Martial University Trial Camp, when he had been at his lowest, Meng Hui had also mocked him.

It had been the contempt and disdain of someone looking down from above.

The Ye Fan of the past might have borne a grudge against Meng Hui, but the current Ye Fan's status, vision, and outlook had all changed.

When he looked at Meng Hui now, it was as though he were looking at a junior.

"Ye Fan, how can you let my younger brother off the hook?"

Though Meng Hui felt extremely uncomfortable under Ye Fan's gaze,

he still patiently asked.

No matter how unruly he was, no matter how he was like mud that could not be plastered onto a wall,

Meng Chen was still Meng Hui's own blood brother.

Hope flickered in Meng Chen's eyes.

He knew that this time, he had truly kicked an iron plate.

"Let him go? Heh. Tell me, what would you do to someone who nearly caused your family's ruin and death?"

Ye Fan sneered.

"But none of that has happened yet, has it?"

Meng Hui argued sophistically.

"Hahaha..."

Ye Fan laughed wildly.

But the next instant, his voice turned icy and sinister. "If I hadn't become a Martial Warrior of Star Martial Hall, my family would likely have suffered ten times, a hundred times worse!"

Thinking of it, Ye Fan was still filled with lingering fear.

It made him realize that in this High Martial World, strength was everything!

He had to grow stronger in order to protect everything he cherished!

Meng Hui was left speechless by the rebuke.

That was right. If Ye Fan had still been that kind of useless trash,

then all his talk of fairness would have been nothing more than the groaning of someone with no illness.

But now Ye Fan had returned in force.

In this matter, the rules would be rewritten!

"Ye Fan, I want to make a wager with you. Do you dare?"

With a youngster's fiery spirit, Meng Hui spoke.

Ye Fan looked at him coldly without saying a word.

"You and I will have a duel. If I am fortunate enough to win by even half a move, then please spare my brother's life.

"My Meng Clan is willing to pay heavily for the losses and harm caused to your family!"

After speaking, Meng Hui looked at Ye Fan with naked provocation in his eyes.

At their age, they were in the years when their blood ran hot.

Meng Xiong, seated steadily at the head of the room, gave his eldest son an approving glance.

Worthy of being his seed.

"Fine. Since we were classmates, I'll give you this chance!"

Ye Fan seemed not to have seen through Meng Hui's open scheme.

Leng Feng's brows furrowed slightly.

However, when he glanced at the squad captain, Wu Xie, he saw that the latter looked calm, as if he had complete confidence in Ye Fan.

"Please!"

With that, a Long Staff appeared in Meng Hui's palm, its aura deep and heavy!

Meng Hui, Vitality Value: 198.

Information on Meng Hui's Vitality Value instantly appeared before Ye Fan.

Peerless Overlord Spear—Indestructible!

Without the slightest hesitation, Ye Fan moved like a startled swan, his spear emerging like a dragon!

"What terrifying martial skill proficiency and Martial Dao Skill!"

Elder Shen, who had been standing with his hands at his sides, was instantly shocked.

Meng Hui was practically half his disciple and had always been his pride.

But when an expert made a move, one immediately knew whether he had the real thing.

The instant Ye Fan thrust his spear, Elder Shen's expression changed drastically. He knew Meng Hui was absolutely no match for this tall young man before him.

That spear was far too terrifying!

"Ha!"

As the one facing it, Meng Hui only felt that all-encompassing pressure after Ye Fan made his move!

It was too terrifying!

He had never experienced anything like it from someone his own age!

Was he truly that useless trash who had been driven out of Jiangnan Martial University just one day ago?!

Clang!

Even though Meng Hui sank his qi into his dantian and switched from offense to defense,

the Long Staff in his hand was sent flying by Ye Fan's spear.

Even the web between his thumb and forefinger split open, blood spraying everywhere.

One spear strike, and he was defeated!

A streak of spear light even pierced his shoulder, shredding his clothes and sending flesh flying.

A glint flashed through Leng Feng's eyes.

This little brother called Ye Fan possessed terrifying Spear Technique!

He could somewhat understand why Ye Fan had received Star Martial Hall's Diamond-tier Clearance!

When Meng Chen saw his own elder brother defeated in an instant,

he was immediately overwhelmed with despair.

Suddenly, he felt a fierce wind sweep toward him.

Vaguely, he saw his father arrive behind him.

"Endure it!"

Vaguely, Meng Chen heard his father's voice.

Pfft!

"Ah!"

A dagger plunged directly into Meng Chen's back, piercing his heart.

Blood splattered across Meng Xiong's face, making his gloomy expression appear all the more cruel and domineering.

Meng Chen screamed as his body went limp and collapsed.

Even Ye Fan was startled.

Even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs. This man was truly ruthless!

Even Wu Xie gave Meng Xiong a deep look. This man was a ruthless overlord!

But the next moment, Ye Fan moved.

Squelch.

With a single thrust, the Silver Spear pierced straight through Meng Hui's heart.

To prevent any mishaps, he finished him off!

Seeing this, Leng Feng froze briefly. When he looked at Ye Fan again, a trace of approval appeared in his eyes.

Decisive, ruthless, meticulous in his actions!

The expressions of everyone from Meng Corporation subtly changed.

"Woooo—"

Just then.

A piercing alarm rang out above Jiangning City.

Elder Shen, still standing with his hands at his sides, directly activated a massive projector.

A host appeared on it:

"Warning! Warning!

A section of the Jiangning City Defense System has been breached, and mutated beasts have entered the urban area. All citizens, remain indoors and do not go outside!

Please trust the nation and trust in the power of Martial Warriors. The mutated beasts will be swiftly eliminated, and peace and tranquility will be restored to all citizens!"

This announcement turned Wu Xie and Leng Feng's expressions icy.

Especially Wu Xie. Before he had come to Jiangning, Hall Master Yin Shanyue had reminded him

that Jiangning had been unsettled lately, and that he might encounter some trouble after arriving here.

Had it come so soon?

At that moment.

Ye Fan's Martial Artist Watch vibrated wildly, and moving red dots appeared across its display.

These were all mutated beasts detected near him.

It seemed the situation was far more serious than the host had said...
