“Xiao Yun, go and tell Dongfang Ao that I won’t be giving him the three Burden Water Seals.” Ye Mo glanced at Xiao Yun before leaving the Spirit Mountain and heading towards the headquarters of Xuan Ji Sub-League.

When some of the Xuan Ji Sub-League members saw Ye Mo approaching, they all smiled at him. After all, Ye Mo’s identity as the honorary sealing artist made it worthwhile to them to treat him with respect.

Ye Mo politely greeted them and chatted with them about some random topics. Xuan Ji was currently in the meeting hall and was talking to Ye Changsheng there. Ye Mo frowned and entered the meeting hall. Both Xuan Ji and Ye Changsheng had obviously not expected Ye Mo to return this fast.

“Master Xuan Ji, your mission has been completed. The 10 Motionless Hell King Seal has been refined as well,” Ye Mo said with his hand clasped after glancing at Ye Changsheng.

“Changsheng, you may leave,” Xuan Ji said.

“Sure,” Ye Changsheng deferentially answered and sneered at Ye Mo before leaving the room.

“Take out the 10 Motionless Hell King Seals,” Xuan Ji sat back on her wind throne and said.

Ye Mo took out the 10 Motionless Hell King Seals from his Dimensional Bracelet and tossed them over to Xuan Ji. With no change in her expression, Xuan Ji grabbed the seals and nodded. “Nicely done. I know why you joined the Xuan Ji Sub-League. You are trying to get the Chief Elect position, right? But I have already decided to give this position to Changsheng. You won’t have any chance,” Xuan Ji spoke frankly. She hoped that Ye Mo wouldn’t work for nothing for a Chief Elect position that he would never get.

“Master Xuan Ji, I know Ye Changsheng is very important for you. But I hope you can give me a chance as well to become the Chief Elect and to ultimately represent the Qingyun League at the league war and fight for Qingyun League’s glory. Don’t you hope that someone even more outstanding than Ye Changsheng can go?” Ye Mo said.

Bang!

Right after he said that, a mighty aura erupted from Xuan Ji’s body. Ye Mo felt that even the pores on his person had all been sealed while his Yuanli stopped flowing as well. He nearly started suffocating as well.

“You think you are better than Ye Changsheng who I had personally cultivated?” Xuan Ji asked with rage written all over her face, an expression she had never shown before.

“Yes.” Ye Mo spoke with his back perfectly straight like a pole. Facing the suppression of a Spirit Devour Realm expert, he was still as unyielding as ever.

“Why do you think so?”

“I only hope that Master Xuan Ji can be fair during the competition over the Chief Elect position. I will definitely be able to defeat Ye Changsheng,” Ye Mo said.

He had to get the Chief Elect position. Even in the face of death, he had to give it a try.

“Interesting. How very interesting. Looks like Limestone City had given birth to quite a few interesting kids with the Ye surname,” Xuan Ji said and stowed the seals into her Dimensional Bracelet. Then, she left, leaving Ye Mo alone in the room.

“Ling’er, did you get anything from Xuan Ji’s words?” Ye Mo asked.

“Nope. That woman is way too shrewd. But since she tried persuading you against competing for the Chief Elect position, it shows that she is very satisfied with what you have done so far. The only thing left for you to do is to fully demonstrate your talent,” Ling’er said.

“Fully demonstrate my talent?” Ye Mo asked doubtfully.

“Yes. It is about time for you to advance to becoming an Elite League member. Not only must you pass the advancement test, you must pass it in a high-profile manner,” said Ling’er while sitting on a seal, swaying her perfect legs around.

Elite League advancement had always been a rather sensational event. Many warriors would pay attention to it. After all, reaching Energy Shaping Seventh Realm signified that these people were now officially powerhouses as well.

The so-called high-profile manner that Ling’er spoke of was naturally not something as simple as passing the advancement test to prove that Ye Mo’s strength was comparable to an Energy Shaping Seventh Realm warrior.

“You had a one month appointment with that Li Tianyang who was number 10 on the Qingyun Ranking, right? With your current strength, you can easily defeat him. Take this chance to spread your name far and wide with a single battle,” Ling’er said.

Although Li Tianyang occupied the tenth place on the Qingyun Ranking, he was only an Energy Shaping Eight Realm warrior. No matter how strong he was, he would at most be slightly stronger than Cao Sanshi. This level of strength was nothing for Ye Mo now.

By challenging an expert who occupied the tenth place on the Qingyun Ranking and defeating him, Ye Mo would naturally qualify to join the ranks of the Elite League members.

Within his cave, Ye Mo waited for Hu Batian to arrive before handing over the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda Seal to him.

“What? You are challenging Li Tianyang?” Hu Batian cried out in alarm when he heard what Ye Mo was planning to do.

In addition to occupying the tenth place on the Qingyun Ranking, Li Tianyang was part of the higher-ups of the Ling Xuan Sub-league. He was very good in water-attribute cultivation methods and martial techniques. He was nearly undefeated among those under the Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. He was also the only Energy Shaping Eighth Realm warrior on the Qingyun Ranking.

“That’s right. Hu Batian, you are a member of Ling Xuan Sub-league and that Li Tianyang is a member of Ling Xuan Sub-league. Can you pass him a message? Tell him I plan to battle him tomorrow,” Ye Mo said with a nod.

If he could defeat Li Tianyang, he would definitely be able to shock Xuan Ji and prove his strength. In half a year’s time, he went from being a new member to becoming an expert occupying the tenth place of the Qingyun Ranking. This feat alone was sufficient to shock many people.

“Ye Mo, that Li Tianyang is not a person Zhan Jun can compare with. Although you are strong, you stand no chance against Li Tianyang,” Hu Batian reminded him as he looked straight at Ye Mo.

“Since I have decided to accept his challenge, I feel sure about defeating him. You only need to pass him a message for me. Don’t worry,” Ye Mo said confidently.

“Okay. I’ll go look for that Li Tianyang and tell him what you said.” Hu Batian quickly left after putting the seal away.

In half a day, the news of Ye Mo challenging Li Tianyang spread to many league members. However, Ling Xue and the others had gone away for mission. This time, it was Yan Shihan that had rushed over to meet Ye Mo.

“Young master, why are you acting so brashly? Why did you challenge Li Tianyang? He is an Energy Shaping Eighth Realm warrior and is known to be undefeated among those under the Ninth Realm. All Eighth Realm warriors of Qingyun League have suffered defeat under him. Now that you are challenging him, he has already sent his underlings to spread everywhere that this is a fight for love. The winner will obtain the qualification to court Senior Sister Yao Yue.”

Yan Shihan looked very anxious. Yao Yue had long left Qingyun League, but Li Tianyang was still not willing to give up on her. He was in fact quite infatuated with her. His plan to spread the word of their fight caused Ye Mo to feel somewhat helpless.

Fight for love? He suddenly recalled the scene of Xiao Cao getting carried by Cao Zheng.

“Shihan, your young master knows what he is doing. You seem to be doing well in your cultivation. You’re now in the Third Realm!” Ye Mo said.

“Young master, do you really like that Senior Sister Yao Yue?” Yan Shihan asked softly with her head lowered and her face blushing.

“No way. She is way too much for me. We are only friends. In any case, she is no longer in the league,” Ye Mo said.

“How about that girl you pulled away when you defeated Yun Feng back then?” Yan Shihan asked again, still with her head lowered.

Ye Mo felt somewhat helpless. It would seem like he had captured the attention of yet another woman.
