Splash! --
The disciples watching below collapsed one after another under the oppressive aura of a Martial Infant Realm.
They lay prostrate on the ground, their eyes wide open, their bodies trembling uncontrollably.
Elder Cheng Qing had been so humiliated, and they were powerless to do anything about it, but now things were different.
The Pavilion Master and the Supreme Elder have finally made their move!
"..."
Ye Li's eyes suddenly lit up, and a blazing golden light surged from them like molten lava.
Indestructible Golden Soul, Walk With Me!
His resilient Golden Soul allowed him to ignore the pressure from powerful superiors and stand firm under mountain-like pressure!
Despite the approaching formidable enemy, Ye Li remained calm.
He knew he would soon reach that level, and this time he wouldn't be alone.
"Snort!"
Just as the Martial Infant expert in the air unleashed his oppressive aura...
A cold snort from a young girl suddenly rang out from the dilapidated mansion behind them, echoing throughout the heavens and earth!
Alas!--
A raging wind suddenly rose from the ground and swept across most of the Hengshan Treasure Pavilion in an instant.
Countless trees were bent over under the weight, and soil, rocks, and wood fragments were swept high into the sky with a whooshing sound!
The old man's pressure from the Martial Infant Realm was instantly and completely neutralized.
"..."
Immediately afterwards, under the solemn gazes of the two Martial Infant experts...
A young girl in green rose from the shattered mansion, her bare feet treading on the air, her cold eyes filled with murderous intent.
She moved forward with each step.
Suddenly, a fierce wind arose, and the clouds surged!
"Zuo Qingyu?!"
Upon seeing the girl, the Hengshan Pavilion Master's expression changed drastically, and he exclaimed in disbelief, "Why are you here?!"
He never expected that the girl, who was usually elusive and rarely seen, would suddenly appear here.
Wasn't she searching for opportunities throughout Huaxia in order to break through to the Grandmaster realm, and at most occasionally exchanging resources with the Qingyi Bureau?!
Why would I help a junior today?
The Hengshan Pavilion Master immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
"As a teacher, do you need any reason to stand up for your own students?"
Zuo Qingyu stood in mid-air, one hand on her waist, her cold voice escaping her lips.
She immediately stopped in mid-air in front of Ye Li, subtly shielding him behind her.
"Student?!"
The Hengshan Pavilion Master frowned, his gaze quickly sweeping over Ye Li.
Upon seeing the Fengyun Gold Medal at the boy's waist, his brows furrowed even deeper instead of relaxing.
His face also turned pale.
Is this guy a student?!
Once a martial artist enters the Divine Mansion, maintaining their youthful appearance is not difficult.
He had assumed the White-robed Youth below was some seasoned martial artist who liked to act young.
Otherwise, how could they possibly have the fighting power to beat Cheng Qing to his knees, kowtow, and make him faint?
But now, Zuo Qingyu tells him that the boy is still a student.
Furthermore, the young man exuded genuine Fengyun Gold Medal...
The Hengshan Pavilion Master's face stiffened, his gaze shifting back and forth between Cheng Qing and Ye Li.
"Zuo Qingyu, so what if he's your student?!"
The Supreme Elder, unable to contain himself any longer, immediately stepped forward and roared:
"He publicly bullied our sect's elders; he deserves an explanation!"
If an ordinary elder had suffered such a calamity, the old man might have hesitated a bit because of Zuo Qingyu's title as the vice president of Fengyun University.
But Cheng Qing is no ordinary elder; she is a rising star on whom many of the sect's higher-ups place high hopes!
Less than seventy, Fifth Tier, eighth level.
This is a rare Martial Prodigy!
If resources are allocated accordingly, Hengshan Treasure Pavilion will likely be able to add a Martial Infant Realm martial artist in the future!
The old man was already furious. Everyone knew that he wanted Cheng Qing to advance to the sixth rank, otherwise he wouldn't have given him so many preferential treatments.
Although the six factions of the Three Mountains and Six Sects may have some intention of working together in secret, they are essentially still each acting as their own.
Hengshan Treasure Pavilion has been weak for many years because it has too few Martial Infant Realm experts, making it slightly inferior to the other five sects.
If Cheng Qing can advance to the sixth-tier Martial Infant, then the status of their Hengshan Treasure Pavilion will...
Therefore, in order not to disappoint Cheng Qing, the old man had to give him a sufficient response.
We must at least make them leave something behind!
But this idea quickly fell through.
"Explain?"
Zuo Qingyu looked at the old man's angry face and sneered, "You injured my school's teachers first, and now you're eyeing my people."
"This is just a slight punishment, and you still want an explanation?"
"You're dreaming! Why haven't you given me an explanation yet?"
"If you are not satisfied, you may take action now."
Zuo Qingyu's voice was cold. "If I didn't have the foundation to fight two opponents of the same level, how could I possibly advance to the Grandmaster realm?"
"I am not as incompetent as you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding Gale Force intensified, almost uprooting the ground!
"You're being so accommodating?"
Seeing this, Ye Li was slightly surprised; the other party's attitude was indeed more forceful than he had imagined.
In particular, his attitude towards fellow martial artists of the same level was somewhat reminiscent of his own.
Good.
Judging from this, Zuo Qingyu does indeed possess some of the air of a grandmaster.
The two from the Hengshan Treasure Pavilion had grim expressions, especially the Hengshan Pavilion Master, whose heart was filled with turbulent emotions.
And the Supreme Elder, blinded by anger, discovered a rather serious problem.
That's the age of a teenager, far too young!
To be able to defeat Cheng Qing so easily, one must possess at least the strength of Fifth-Tier Peak.
If what Zuo Qingyu said is true, and the other party is a student at a Martial Arts University...
That boy's potential is almost worlds apart from that of the Martial Dao prodigies who are widely recognized today!
No wonder I've never heard of it before; it turns out it was hidden away at Fengyun University by Zuo Qingyu!
Upon recalling this, the Hengshan Pavilion Master felt as if he had been struck by lightning, and his mind had suddenly become clear.
If such people cannot be eradicated, then the only option is to befriend them!
He quickly reached out to stop the Supreme Elder who still wanted to speak, and forced a smile at Ye Li:
"Friend, I really knew too little about this matter; I never imagined there were such hidden details."
"Elder Cheng Qing is now seriously injured, having paid a bloody price. He will likely require a large amount of Treasure Medicine to heal him in the future..."
The Hengshan Sect Master smiled gently, "She has remarkable talent. Although she may not be as talented as you, she is still the hope of our Hengshan Treasure Pavilion."
"Why don't we just call it quits and consider ourselves friends?"
At the same time.
The Supreme Elder, who had retreated to the lower level, changed his expression drastically after taking Cheng Qing's pulse.
