Shocked Gu Clan Commanders
"To actually witness the geniuses of the Langya Pavilion clashing with the Gu Clan, this trip was definitely worthwhile!" Among the invited guests were many experts from Central Plains, who exclaimed in surprise.
"That's right!" Many people echoed.
"You go on stage," Xiao Wu said, drooping his head and waving his hand weakly. He had given up on struggling anyway; offending people was fine, as long as no one died.
Before he finished speaking, Ye Shenghan appeared on the Battle Stage with great interest, looking at the burly Silver Armored Brute opposite him with a cold expression.
"Gu Yue!"
"Ye Shenghan!"
"Please advise!" x2
The next instant, the two vanished from their spot, colliding without any fanfare.
"Bang!"
The moment they made contact, the floor beneath their feet instantly turned to dust. They then each took five steps back.
"Kid, you're pretty good!" Gu Yue grinned maliciously. Even among his peers in the Gu Clan, few could match his strength.
"Continue." Ye Shenghan's reply was still so cold, which made the former pause for a moment, but he quickly realized that this guy really was a poker face!
"Okay, let's continue." Gu Yue, who was also a martial arts fanatic, immediately rushed forward.
While Ye Shenghan and Gu Yue were fighting, many powerful figures were watching from the sidelines and offering their opinions.
"Ye Shenghan of the Langya Pavilion is quite strong. He actually managed to fight to a draw with this Black Annihilation Army Commander named Gu Yue." One of the Young Man with Lightning Markings, said with great interest, his eyes never leaving the two fighting.
"What, you're itching to get your hands dirty too?" A slightly older young man opposite him said with a smile.
"What do you think?" The former rolled his eyes at him, his aura indicating that he was also a Six Star Dou Zun.
The Lei Tribe is known for its warlike nature, so how could they not take the stage to spar with an opponent?
"Do you think Gu Yue is a match for Ye Shenghan?" In a room, several armored figures gathered together were staring intently at the Battle Stage; they were the other Black Annihilation Army Commander.
"This round will probably end in a draw," one of them said with some regret. The battle between the two was so intense that it was indeed difficult to determine a winner, but he was more inclined to side with his own people.
"Little Six, what do you think?" asked a Black Armored Man with the strongest aura. As soon as he said this, many figures turned to look at a Refined Man in Cloth behind them.
The Sixth Commander, Ling Feng, possesses only the strength of Three Star Dou Zun, but he has a keen eye and serves as the strategist among the many commanders, thus his advice is highly valued by the others.
Seeing everyone's gaze, Ling Feng didn't keep them in suspense and bluntly said, "Third Brother is going to lose."
"How could that be!" Almost everyone else objected.
"Oh, tell me more about it." The man who started it seemed quite interested and asked curiously.
"Ye Shenghan didn't use a weapon," Ling Feng simply said.
From the very beginning of their battle, the two had been competing in hand-to-hand combat, with Ye Shenghan not even using a sword.
But the others didn't know this. "What if he didn't use weapons in the first place?"
It's important to know that Gu Yue, who is currently fighting Ye Shenghan, doesn't repair his weapons. It's unbelievable that someone who can fight Gu Yue hand-to-hand is evenly matched with a weapon!
"Impossible," Ling Feng shook his head. "Perhaps it's possible for others, but Ye Shenghan definitely used a weapon."
"Why?"
"Little Six, you seem to know a lot about this Ye Shenghan?" the Black Armored Man said.
"Isn't this something everyone knows?" Upon hearing this, Ling Feng looked at the former with a very strange expression.
"Is he famous?" one of them laughed. Ye Shenghan commodity, so why should they know about him?
Ling Feng shook his head helplessly. He really had nothing to say to these arrogant guys. If they didn't change their attitude, they would suffer sooner or later. However, he still revealed Ye Shenghan's information.
"Ye Shenghan is proficient in Sword Dao, understand?" Ling Feng felt it was better to explain it more clearly.
"The Sword Dao?" the Black Armored Man muttered.
"Yes, and he's the kind of person who's quite dependent, very similar to Ancient Sword Cultivator," Ling Feng nodded in agreement.
The Ancient Sword Cultivator appeared, everyone immediately realized that Ye Shenghan was in trouble.
For Ancient Sword Cultivator, the sword was almost their entire life. Without the sword, their strength would be reduced by at least half.
In other words, Gu Yue is currently only equivalent to less than half of Ye Shenghan!?
"This guy's ruthless!" After a long silence, someone sighed, and no one objected.
"I hope that future Black Annihilation Army General will include figures like him," the Black Armored Man suddenly sighed.
"What?" However, the Black Armored Man's words shocked everyone. Was he really giving such a high evaluation?
"Brother, it can't be that serious!" one of them said.
The Black Annihilation Army General are extraordinary individuals, far surpassing ordinary geniuses. At least the current Four Great Commanders of the Black Annihilation Army possess at least the strength of Half-Saint.
Even if the Black Annihilation Army General will be replaced after this Coming-of-Age Ceremony, and a new selection will be made from the younger generation, and the strength may be slightly reduced, it is still not a position that an ordinary person can hold.
"What, do you think any of us commanders are his match?" The Black Armored Man glanced at him.
"Can't even the eldest brother do it?" the man asked, somewhat unwillingly.
"No way," the Black Armored Man admitted without hesitation. He was merely Seven Star Dou Zun; he wasn't necessarily going to win a one-on-one fight against a powerful swordsman.
There's nothing more to say now. The commander is no match for him; he can probably only be the Black Annihilation Army General.
"Good, wonderful!" At this moment, cheers erupted from the outside world. The battle on the field had already been decided. Ye Shenghan directly created an opening and placed his finger on Gu Yue's throat. With just a tap of his Dou Qi, he could easily take Gu Yue's life.
"You flatter me!" Ye Shenghan withdrew his hand, took a step back, and clasped his hands in greeting.
"You win." Although Gu Yue looked bad, he had to admit defeat in front of everyone.
"However, don't be too smug. I'm just the third commander. There are two more powerful ones above me." Gu Yue said threateningly with a grim expression.
This made Ye Shenghan's eyes light up. "Is what you say true?"
"Of course it is true," Gu Yue said proudly. But behind him, a group of commanders were cursing him to death. Ye Shenghan really defeated all the Black Annihilation Army Commander by himself, their Gu Clan would lose face big time.
We can't very well let a commander who has already reached the Saint Realm fight with someone else, would that be too shameful?
"Alright, guests are guests, so don't get so worked up. We can't let our guests say that our Gu Clan doesn't know etiquette." The Black Armored Man reacted faster, stopping Ye Shenghan from challenging him.
"Yeah, can't you just shut up for once, big brother?" Xiao Wu, who had been sitting idly by, hurriedly tried to stop him.
He also realized from the battle just now that the young people of the Gu Clan were not very good and could not put any pressure on Ye Shenghan. If he really let Ye Shenghan defeat the younger generation of the Gu Clan, wouldn't that be a public slap in the face?
They won't get away with it then. After all, they're just guests here; they'd better behave themselves.
Finally...
With the joint efforts of both parties, a potential crisis was averted.
Many people are simply reminiscing about that spectacular battle, but only a few can see the deeper meaning behind it.
