In the beginning, Ye Chen opened the door and subdued a fellow at the True Essence Realm Second Layer with one move. People said he attacked sneakily, that his victory was unworthy, despicable and shameless.

This time, Ye Chen faced another fellow at the True Essence Realm Third Layer in a direct confrontation, still using just one move to knock the person out cold. The crowd had nothing to say.

They all realized that Ye Chen's combat power was very strong!

Yu Heng, who led the group, wanted to say something.

But Ye Chen's voice was the first to ring out!

"I'm giving you time to prepare, so don't say I attacked sneakily and give a bunch of excuses later!"

Ye Chen stared at Yu Heng, his expression also carrying a hint of disdain.

Yu Heng looked down on Ye Chen, but Ye Chen certainly didn't think much of Yu Heng.

A spineless person, causing trouble while messing around with so many tricks, truly insidious and despicable!

Yu Heng gnashed his teeth and said, "Ye Chen, to deal with you, I don't need to prepare anything. With a raise of my hand, I can suppress you—you have no right to be arrogant in front of me!"

"Really?" Ye Chen sneered, and in the next instant, he darted forward, instantly rushing to Yu Heng's front.

Yu Heng suddenly launched a palm strike.

Violent aura exploded in an instant.

With True Essence Realm Fifth Layer cultivation, he could be said to be unleashing with no reservations!

But Ye Chen's right hand suddenly grabbed the hilt of the Spirit Sword held in his left hand.

"Swish!"

The sharp sword swept out obliquely.

Wind and Cloud Sword, rising wind!

A strong wind swept through.

The fierce sword light, like tearing a thin sheet of paper, easily shredded the palm force Yu Heng unleashed.

Yu Heng was frightened white and immediately retracted his palm, retreating swiftly.

However, it was still too late!

The sword Ye Chen obliquely swept out traced from Yu Heng's right waist to his left shoulder.

"Ah!"

Yu Heng screamed, his body flying backward!

"Bang!"

Yu Heng, who flew out more than ten meters, fell to the ground, the flesh on his front rolled back, bloody and battered by severe pain, leaving him without the strength to stand.

Around him, everyone was staring wide-eyed, mouths agape... struggling to swallow their saliva.

"Violent Wind Sword Intent?!"

"Is he really just at the Gathering Yuan Realm Tenth Layer?!"

"Ye Chen's combat power is actually this powerful?!"

Unbelievable, incredible emotions surged through everyone's hearts.

Ye Chen looked at Yu Heng with a curious expression and said, "Do you have a grudge with Yu Chengguang?"

Yu Heng, originally furious while being helped to stand, suddenly appeared puzzled.

His relationship with his cousin Yu Chengguang was good.

"Ye Chen, what do you mean!" Yu Heng shouted angrily.

Ye Chen sighed and said, "Foolish guy, didn't Yu Chengguang tell you that even he himself lost to me? He knows my strength yet sent you to fight me, obviously trying to set you up. If he didn't have a grudge against you, he wouldn't do this."

"Yu Chengguang is my cousin, we have always had a good relationship. Ye Chen, don't try to sow discord." Yu Heng shouted, but saying this lacked confidence.

Could it be that his cousin really set him up on purpose?

Ye Chen's combat power is simply stronger than ordinary martial artists at the True Essence Realm Sixth Layer, yet his cousin told him that Ye Chen's combat strength was only equivalent to ordinary True Essence Realm Fourth Layer... Moreover, he noticed that the sword in Ye Chen's hand was the Top-grade Spiritual Sword of his cousin Yu Chengguang!

The surrounding people also had flickering gazes.

Come to think of it...

The relationships within these aristocratic families are quite chaotic.

If Yu Heng was really incited by Yu Chengguang to deal with Ye Chen, it was very likely he was being played!

"Believe it or not." Ye Chen said indifferently.

No matter what's the truth, Yu Chengguang, that despicable and insidious person, wants to scheme against me, so I'll give him some trouble as well. Even if Yu Heng doesn't believe it, there will be a thorn in his heart. If Yu Heng believes it, then Yu Chengguang will have one more enemy within their family!

Playing tricks?

Who's afraid of whom!

Ye Chen glanced around at the people and said, "Who else is dissatisfied? If you want a fight, step out yourself—I don't have time to play with you all!"

No one dared to respond.

Yu Heng, at the Gathering Yuan Realm Fifth Layer cultivation, couldn't even withstand a single sword from Ye Chen, who else would dare to step forward?

It's known that Yu Heng's strength was among the upper middle in those participating in Cangxing Martial Arts Academy exams.

Seeing no one dared to stand out, Ye Chen said, "I'll say this ugly truth upfront, if anyone dares to come here and mess around in the future, I won't be so gentle next time."

Everyone was speechless.

Was this considered gentle?

Three people were taken down—one sprawled on the ground twitching, one lying unconscious, and Yu Heng almost split in half...

If he went harder?

Could this guy dare to kill people here?!

At that moment.

A cold murderous intent suddenly enveloped the scene.

Ye Chen felt his whole body hairs stand instantly and immediately operated Sword Essence, injecting it into the Spirit Sword in his hand.

"Buzz!"

The sound of sword clanging resonated.

In the next instant, a silver long spear shot toward Ye Chen.

The air pierced by the silver long spear emitted a booming air explosion.

Ye Chen swung his sword horizontally before him.

The tip of the silver spear struck the side of Ye Chen's Spirit Sword.

The Spirit Sword bent sharply.

Ye Chen roared furiously, bursting with all his strength, deflecting the silver long spear.

His body, however, slid involuntarily backward, and as Ye Chen steadied his position, he spat out a mouthful of blood!

A figure dashed in, grabbed the deflected silver spear, and then landed in front of Ye Chen.

It was a young man with bushy eyebrows, surrounded by extremely powerful energy, staring at Ye Chen with overwhelming killing intent!

"Bai Sen!"

"Why did he take action?"

"Bai Sen already has a reserved Inner Courtyard Disciple spot and wouldn't attend the exam, why is he here?"

For a moment, the uproar arose.

Bai Sen stared at Ye Chen with an icy tone, "Ye Chen, where are my grandfather and younger brother!"

Ye Chen's thoughts spun.

A spear user, surname Bai...

"Is your younger brother called Bai Feng?" asked Ye Chen.

Bai Sen said, "That's right!"

"Is your grandfather with a horseshoe mustache and full silver hair?"

"Indeed!"

Ye Chen laughed and said, "So it's them, both are dead."

Bai Sen's long spear suddenly lifted, spear tip pointing directly at Ye Chen, roaring angrily, "Who killed my grandfather and younger brother!"

"Bai Feng's head was severed by my sword, as for your grandfather, seems he was shattered to pieces by my sword." Having spoken this, Ye Chen gazed at Bai Sen, his eyes flashing with intense killing intent, then took out Bai Feng's long spear from the Storage Ring, waving it in his hand and said, "This spear is my trophy, unfortunately, when slaying the old man, I went too hard and left nothing behind."

With Yu Chengguang and Yu Heng, there was no serious blood feud, just teaching a lesson would suffice.

But not the Bai family.

The Bai family wanted to use Ye Chen's head to secure a spot for an Inner Sect Disciple in the Celestial Sword Sect!

This was a feud to the bitter end!

Upon hearing this from Ye Chen, the intense icy killing intent on Bai Sen exploded to the extreme.

His grandfather and brother left Unparalleled County a few days ago to take Ye Chen's head, yet they never returned and were lost since.

Hence, upon hearing Ye Chen joined the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy exam, Bai Sen came immediately.

The information he received was unexpectedly this!

Moreover, Ye Chen even brought out Bai Feng's weapon, confirming his grandfather and brother indeed met mishaps!

Bai Sen was about to grind his teeth, his face twisted in viciousness, roaring furiously, "Just you garbage, even a hundred couldn't harm my grandfather a single hair. I don't care who is behind you, today I will take your life and investigate the truth later!"
