When in doubt, stop thinking

On the high platform, Cao Ming frowned deeply.

Even an old hand like him did not know how to wrap this up now. Ye Li's outcome was not difficult to understand; it would have been stranger if such a hot-blooded young deputy general could swallow this insult.

But the youth was not some reckless fool who did not know his limits. He must have had his own calculations in making this move.

As a cultivator likewise capable of swiftly defeating a Dao Evolution Realm domain lord, he might well possess a trump card that would let him withdraw unscathed.

At this thought, Cao Ming swallowed, and his voice rang directly beside Ye Li's ear:

"Safety comes first in all things. If necessary, I will intervene and halt the sparring."

Yet Ye Li seemed not to have heard him. Not only did he fail to turn around, the martial pressure around him only grew stronger and stronger!

Seeing this, the Sword Sect Old Ancestor slightly reined in his smile.

This Ye Li truly was extraordinary. His ability to seize the crown at Jade Mountain was no empty reputation.

The intensity of this martial pressure alone was not something an ordinary mid-stage Dao Evolution Realm domain lord could possess. He likely even had foundations approaching the late Dao Evolution Realm.

Not simple at all... the Sword Sect Old Ancestor chuckled.

But it did not matter.

Even among those at the Dao Evolution Realm, the difference between them could be as vast as heaven and earth!

"Senior Sister Zhou... the Sword Master still isn't making a move. Does she really intend to give this Ye Li three moves?" a disciple could not help asking.

"Idiot. The Sword Master always keeps her word. Once three moves are over, the victor will be decided!"
