As the second most popular figure on the Fengyun Ranking, Sun Chiyang has absolute confidence in his talent and strength.
He broke through to the Fourth-Tier Third Layer level before he turned thirty.
Li Jiankai, who ranks first on the Fengyun Ranking, is only one level higher than him in terms of Martial Dao level.
However, Li Jiankai Sword Nurturing Technique, which possessed extremely high offensive power. He could always gain the upper hand in every clash, which is why he secured the number one position.
Sun Chiyang wasn't too worried about this, because the future was long, the gap between the two was very small, and he still had plenty of opportunities to catch up.
Moreover, with his talent, he is already one of the most outstanding young talents in Huaxia.
There is absolutely no need to be afraid of any peers.
That's how it should be.
But...
At this very moment, Gale Force swept across the mountaintop.
In the distance, a figure in a green robe, with black hair gently swaying across his forehead and sleeves fluttering, seemed to be amidst surging winds and clouds.
Ye Li took a step forward with a leisurely expression.
Alas!--
Soaring true energy burst forth from his body, and surging wind pressure gathered, sweeping across the entire mountain peak with astonishing might!
Centered on the boy, the clouds within a ten-mile radius trembled violently, churning endlessly, with muffled thunderous sounds constantly emanating from them.
'What exactly is his rank...?'
Sun Chiyang's dry throat bobbed, and as the boy moved, his back trembled slightly uncontrollably.
He wasn't actually combative; he preferred to sit back and watch the tigers fight.
The reason for informing Xu Tian about Ye Li's situation was that he was somewhat annoyed by the former's recent show of prominence and wanted to see the two of them fight like dogs, preferably to the point of mutual destruction.
But he never expected that Xu Tian was like a newborn baby in front of the other party.
He was instantly beaten unconscious.
'What the hell is this thing...?'
His gaze swept over Xu Tian, whose body was half-buried in the ground.
Sun Chiyang looked at Ye Li across from him again, his unease growing stronger, and the back of his clothes unknowingly became soaked.
He can swear an oath.
Even Li Jiankai, who had nurtured the Heavenly Star Sword to its fullest potential, did not exert as much pressure on him as the Green-Shirted Youth at this moment!
Fourth-order, fifth level? Fourth-order, sixth level?
No, if he only had two or three advantages, it would be impossible to give him this level of pressure.
That means... Fourth-Tier Level Eight or higher?!
This terrifying thought surged into Sun Chiyang's mind, instantly stirring up an unparalleled and overwhelming storm within him.
'How is this possible?!'
Sun Chiyang's heart trembled violently. If such a monstrous talent truly existed, wouldn't all of them, this group of so-called "geniuses," become a laughingstock?!
He suppressed his unease, even his breathing became cautious.
He then glanced around and noticed that everyone else, except Chen Jingli, was blushing just as much as he was.
They all stared at the Green-Shirted Youth with solemn expressions, holding their breath and concentrating as if facing a formidable enemy.
They had clearly sensed a great threat.
Based on Ye Li's statement just now, it seems that he has targeted them all.
That's a bit too much...
They did have an element of schadenfreude beforehand, intending to take advantage of Xu Tian's attack to see what this newly promoted number ten on the Fengyun Ranking was really made of.
Let's see if the boy is qualified to have an equal dialogue with us.
The outcome is now clear.
Xu Tian, who was stronger than most of them, had already been knocked unconscious by the boy's two simple punches.
Clearly, the boy was very strong, even ridiculously so.
The Martial Ground Baptism is of utmost importance; if Ye Li were to attack them now, it would indeed be a very Trouble matter.
Ultimately, however, they neither made sarcastic remarks nor launched any physical attacks.
Is this Green-Shirted Youth really going to attack them all just because he doesn't like them?!
Thinking of this, anger rose in everyone's hearts.
Even a clay figure has some temper, let alone these Martial Prodigy who are usually surrounded by praise?
At the same time.
Li Jiankai, sitting on the Green Lotus at the very front, subconsciously gripped the hilt of his sword behind him, his eyes, covered by a black belt, looking in Ye Li's direction.
In his perception, the aura emanating from the boy was far stronger than his own.
It was an absolute, overwhelming victory.
Fourth-Tier Peak?
That's interesting...
Li Jiankai chuckled inwardly, opening his eyes slightly behind the black belt.
A sharp Sword Qi began to gather in the scabbard behind him.
Within the martial arts realm, eight top geniuses from Fengyun University have naturally formed an invisible Alliance, confronting the much younger Green-Shirted Youth in front of them.
This is almost unimaginable.
This scene made Sun Chiyang relax a little.
Even a prodigy at the Fourth-Tier Level Eight or higher, might not gain much advantage if they faced all of them at the same time.
Among the crowd, a burly young man with a gloomy face and piercing eyes stared intently at Ye Li.
In the tense atmosphere, his muscles were taut, and he finally couldn't hold back any longer, stepping forward and saying in a deep voice:
"Sir, it was Xu Tian and Sun Chiyang who provoked you; it seems they have nothing to do with us, right?"
"That's right! Don't go too far!"
Song Man Seventh on the Fengyun Ranking, immediately chimed in, her sharp features flashing as she coldly addressed Ye Li:
"Ye Li, we acknowledge your strength, and we admit that we are no match for you in a one-on-one fight. But if you think you are invincible because of that, you are sorely mistaken!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Chiyang's heart skipped a beat.
But Song Man still did not stop speaking:
"We can let you sit in Xu Tian's baptismal seat, but that's all. This matter ends here."
"As for what you just said, one person against all of us..."
Song Man's face still held lingering anger, as if she had made a huge concession, and she said expressionlessly:
"We'll pretend we didn't hear it, but this won't happen again."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone nodded in agreement, immediately giving their consent to the proposal.
Of course, there are exceptions--
Chen Jingli had retreated to the edge of the mountain peak at some point and sat down quietly.
Li Jiankai was solemn, and the Sword Qi contained within the scabbard behind him grew increasingly fierce.
Sun Chiyang's flame mark between his brows flickered slightly as he subtly retreated behind the others, watching Ye Li nervously.
Immediately afterwards.
The burly young man who had spoken first stepped forward, narrowed his eyes, and asked in a cold voice:
"Sir, is that alright?"
The Martial Ground Baptism was extremely important to him, and he could not afford to make any mistakes.
They are all top ten figures on the Fengyun Ranking. Even if Ye Li's exaggeration is exaggerated, they should know the principle of being forgiving when possible.
They have already made such concessions, which is quite a show of sincerity.
"..."
Ye Li remained expressionless, glanced at him, and then suddenly disappeared from the spot.
He appeared instantly in front of the person who spoke and casually struck with his palm.
There was no need to use any martial arts techniques; he simply crushed them with his powerful internal energy.
The advancement of Fourth-Tier Martial Artist involves passing through a Heavenly Barrier, and he has already stood at the very top of this Heavenly Gate Bridge!
That seemingly light and airy palm actually carried the terrifying force of shattering mountains, directly shattering the sound barrier and striking the burly youth with lightning speed.
The burly young man's expression changed drastically. He suddenly mobilized all his energy, bulged his muscles, and responded with Qi Burst!
A head-on clash!
Boom!!--
The burly young man had faced countless formidable opponents and was most skilled at clashing energy. However, his strength, which was once enough to shatter mountains and rocks, was now like a thin egg under a giant hammer, instantly shattered by that slender hand!
An irresistible force slammed into the burly young man's body.
The bones and tendons cracked clearly, his energy exploded, his face turned deathly pale, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his burly body flew backward, tumbling and crashing into the ground!
[Seriously injuring the eighth-ranked prodigy on the Fengyun Ranking in public, Malice Points +8000!]
This scene sent chills down the spines of everyone present, their eyes fixed intently on Ye Li.
Immediately afterwards, a detached voice slowly rang out from the mountaintop.
"I said..."
The Green-Shirted Youth calmly withdrew his hand, his indifferent gaze sweeping over the same spot as before, and stated in a factual tone:
"Even if you kneel down and beg me today, I will not let you go!"
The moment the words left his mouth.
As if his patience had been completely exhausted, a sudden surge of cold air erupted from the boy's body!
