Yang Tianji was doing everything possible to cover for Ye Chen.

The brilliance of this disciple was already too dazzling.

Not only was Yang Tianji doing this, but Ouyang Shang and Elder Bai Mei were also involved.

Previously, using the Divine Acupoint Pill from Elder Bai Mei and the Divine Radiance Pill from Luofeng Martial Arts Academy's Yu Sheng, they tried to provide a barely reasonable explanation for Ye Chen becoming a Tier Three Ultimate Celestial Seal Spirit Master in a short time.

Then, within the devil's lair, Yang Tianji and Ouyang Shang took the responsibility for destroying the demonic source. In the public announcements, Ye Chen was just presented as an executor.

Including this time, Yang Tianji thought Ye Chen might have a way to solve the trouble Yuan Polu faced due to taking the Dragon Blood Pill. This involved the royal family, so the truth must be concealed even more cautiously than before!

Ye Chen already had many people watching him.

The Qin Family, who approached Ye Chen under the pretense of investigating the death of their descendant, belonged to this kind of group.

This was all despite Yang Tianji and the others' best efforts to cover the truth, yet some people still coveted Ye Chen's secrets and took action.

It's imaginable, if the truth exposed itself to everyone, Ye Chen would face even more trouble.

The principle of "a tall tree attracts the wind" was something Yang Tianji and other seasoned strong individuals understood well.

But Yang Tianji did not ask Ye Chen to conceal himself, to keep a low profile, and to be patient.

A young person should be high-spirited and draw their sword!

Therefore, Yang Tianji knew exactly what he needed to do.

As Ye Chen's mentor, if there were obstacles in Ye Chen's path, he should level them!

If Ye Chen wants to advance against the great waves, he should protect him!

This is what it means to be a teacher!

......

Inside the Sword Tomb.

Ye Chen had already refined that piece of a Dragon Race's reverse scale into his abdominal area to guard his dantian.

According to Luo Qingyi, even a top-tier Unity Realm expert hitting with full force couldn't break the defense of that piece of reverse scale.

For a martial artist, the dantian is the most important, and with such a strong defense, its safety has greatly improved!

Ye Chen stood up.

Lifted his shirt.

Held the Celestial Mark Sword in reverse with his right hand and stabbed at his abdomen hard.

The skin slightly indented, and then, a layer of blue light rippled on the skin's surface as the reverse scale's patterns emerged.

Seeing this, Luo Qingyi almost laughed but held back, keeping a straight face and said, "What do you expect to feel by randomly poking? Use all your strength to stab; your belly won't be harmed a bit."

Ye Chen's eyes sparkled, eager to try, but he hesitated again, "What if I break my belly and ruin my dantian..."

Luo Qingyi snorted, "You give yourself too much credit."

"It's better to be safe than sorry..." Ye Chen mumbled.

"Stop being so wishy-washy, like what kind of man is that!"

"I'll stab!"

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, and instantly combined his spiritual power, sword energy, qi blood power, and Demonic Qi into one.

He gripped the sword hilt with both hands, pointed its tip at his abdomen, and the stacked waves force instantly added four layers!

"Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Sect!"

Ye Chen shouted, a mass of Sword Qi emerged and merged into the Celestial Mark Sword.

Then... he stabbed his own belly with the sword!

"Boom!"

Ye Chen's body flung backward several hundred meters, crashing onto the ground.

"Hiss!"

The sound of sucking in cold air was heard as Ye Chen climbed up, looked at his belly, and touched it; it was fine.

But the impact's force spread throughout his body, if it weren't for his achievements in cultivating the Sword Body, he would definitely have internal injuries!

Then, Ye Chen, carrying the Celestial Mark Sword with excitement on his face, returned to Luo Qingyi.

"This is the first time I've seen someone stabbing themselves with a sword so grandly and heroically," Luo Qingyi said coldly.

Ye Chen: "..."

Luo Qingyi nodded, "Fortunately, this reverse scale's effects are still there."

Ye Chen was speechless...

Elder Qingyi, you were so confident earlier... were you not sure if this reverse scale still worked?

Ye Chen felt a chill, if he could win, he would definitely pin Luo Qingyi to the ground and teach him a lesson!

"Thinking of stabbing me with a sword?" Luo Qingyi said.

"..." Ye Chen: "I wouldn't dare."

"You would dare if you can win, right?"

Luo Qingyi finally couldn't help laughing, "If this reverse scale's effects were gone, I wouldn't have given it to you. Hurry and give the Dragon Forging Technique to your senior brother, his situation is not optimistic; the sooner it's resolved, the better."

Ye Chen responded with a sound, and with a thought, left the Sword Tomb and headed towards Crumbling Cliff.

On the way, Ye Chen pondered how to pass the Dragon Forging Technique to Yuan Polu.

Luo Qingyi had mentioned not letting Yuan Polu know about this... the only way is probably to knock senior brother out, and then implant the Dragon Forging Technique's inheritance into his consciousness sea!

"Senior Brother, I'm sorry." Ye Chen silently said to himself.

Almost reaching the area of Crumbling Cliff, Ye Chen directly used the Vertical Earth Golden Light to charge at the unaware Yuan Polu at the fastest speed.

Yuan Polu had recovered his power now, but his control was poor, and his sensing ability was lacking. It was only when Ye Chen had reached his back that Yuan Polu felt the alert in his heart.

"Bang!"

Then, a huge force knocked on Yuan Polu's shiny head.

Yuan Polu's body fell... face down, twitching all over.

Ye Chen, in resignation, had to punch again to completely knock Yuan Polu out!

"Senior Brother, truly don't blame me, it's because you used to always like to hit the Crumbling Cliff with your head, your head's too hard, I had no choice but to knock you twice, but I must say, Senior Brother, your shiny head has quite a good feel."

Ye Chen mumbled, then turned Yuan Polu's body over, and pressed the light blob containing the Dragon Forging Technique onto Yuan Polu's forehead.

When the light blob merged into Yuan Polu's head, Ye Chen again used the Vertical Earth Golden Light to leave the scene of the crime!

......

When Yuan Polu woke up, he only felt his head hurting unbelievably, touched the shiny back of his head, and a big lump was there; it hurt so much his face twisted.

But then, Yuan Polu's expression froze!

In his mind, some inexplicable memories appeared... there was a dragon soaring in the sky...

"Cultivation method?"

Yuan Polu muttered, looking incredulous.

"Could it be that the one which knocked me out is a fortune fallen from the sky?"

At that moment, Yang Tianji's figure flashed and appeared in front of Yuan Polu.

"Teacher...I was knocked out by a fortune fallen from the sky, I obtained a cultivation technique, it seems very powerful..."

Yuan Polu immediately wanted to tell Yang Tianji about his situation, even to mention the cultivation technique.

Yang Tianji interrupted Yuan Polu, "Since it's your fortune, don't talk about it everywhere, you should be the only one who knows, understand?"

Yuan Polu touched the big lump on the back of his shiny head, nodded.

Yang Tianji was deeply moved.

Ye Chen really found a way to solve the trouble from the Dragon Blood Pill.

That evening.

Deep in the Luoyao Mountain Range, a huge commotion erupted.

Soon, the news spread throughout Unparalleled County.

It turned out, the dean of Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, Ouyang Shang, had gone to draw a large bucket of essence blood from the Flood Dragon King in Luoyao Mountain Range, reportedly to help Cangxing Martial Arts Academy's Spirit Martial department's disciple Yuan Polu regain strength.

Late at night.

Yang Tianji called Yuan Polu into a secret room. Inside, there was a large wooden barrel filled with fresh blood.

"Teacher, what is this?"

Yuan Polu asked.

"Flood Dragon essence blood, soak in it overnight, then practice the cultivation technique you acquired today."

"Flood Dragon essence blood?" Yuan Polu approached the barrel, tugged at a white hair, and said, "Does the Flood Dragon have pig bristles?"

"I told you to soak, so just soak, why so much nonsense!" Yang Tianji scolded sternly.

Ouyang Shang, that bastard, was so perfunctory; he actually brought a barrel of pig blood for show!

The next day.

Two news pieces spread throughout Unparalleled County.

First, Cangxing Martial Arts Academy's Spirit Martial department's senior disciple Yuan Polu not only restored his cultivation after soaking in Flood Dragon essence blood overnight, but also significantly advanced in strength.

Second, the triennial Great Zhou Dynasty Martial Arts Academy grand competition will be held in half a month in the Capital City; Cangxing Martial Arts Academy will select five outstanding disciples to participate!
