When Xu Tianlong said this, Yue the Third also hesitated.

Ye Chen, however, smiled and said, "Elder Yue, don't worry, it will be quick, it won't take much time."

Yue the Third glanced at Ye Chen.

Where did this kid get such strong confidence?

Little did he know.

With a combat capability like Xu Tianlong's, Ye Chen had already been able to cut it down in the outer realm of the different races. After returning, his strength had improved significantly, so naturally, he was full of confidence.

"Alright, I'll wait for you a while." Yue the Third said with a frown.

Upon hearing Yue the Third say this, Xu Tianlong immediately said excitedly, "Hmph, Ye Chen, I'll be waiting for you in the open space ahead!"

Leaving these words behind, Xu Tianlong instantly rushed to an open space not far away.

Ye Chen sneered and flew over.

Yue the Third, along with some city guards and a large number of onlookers, also surrounded the area.

Qi Yu, whose face had been beaten to a pulp by Ye Chen's sword, looked at him with a gloomy and vicious expression, wishing he could immediately see Ye Chen being killed by Xu Tianlong!

"Xu Tianlong has been crying in Celestial Cyan City for so many days, saying he wants to kill Ye Chen. I thought Ye Chen wouldn't pay any attention to him, but unexpectedly, they're about to fight!"

"Xu Tianlong was really unlucky. He had just made it to the hundredth position on the Qingyun list, but then, within a few days, the pet beast he kept was killed by Ye Chen, and then his position on the Qingyun list was taken by Qi Cultivator's challenge."

"You can't really blame Ye Chen for that. The Celestial Soldier Pavilion clarified the matter about the cloud ship, and it was purely the people from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect who brought it upon themselves."

"And what about the Flame Desert incident?"

"The Flame Desert is inherently a lawless place. There, even people without enmity can become mortal enemies over a bit of profit, let alone those from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect encountering Ye Chen.

People say that the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect had their eyes on a Red Fire Demon Python for Xu Tianlong to subdue, but unexpectedly, Ye Chen was hiding in the belly of the Red Fire Demon Python. At the critical moment, Ye Chen intervened, ruined Xu Tianlong's plan, and took the chance to kill an unremarkable small Elder of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect."

The grievances between Ye Chen and Xu Tianlong were quickly laid bare by the group of spectators watching the fight.

Surrounded by the crowd, Xu Tianlong's face twisted, and with a vicious look, he said, "Ye Chen, you've caused me to fall to this point during this period. I swore that I must kill you, drink your blood, and eat your flesh. I will achieve that today!"

Ye Chen sneered, drew his sword, and its light shone brilliantly, his aura unstoppable.

The clenched fist of Xu Tianlong made cracking sounds, as powerful energy burst forth from within his body.

"Die!"

With a roar, Xu Tianlong's body suddenly leaped into the air, charging towards the sky, then diving down towards Ye Chen, his fists striking rapidly.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

A dense barrage of fists created deafening roars.

Facing the rainstorm-like onsalught of fists from the sky, Ye Chen's mouth curled into a disdainful smile, and his figure instantly dashed upward, charging toward those fists.

No need for any fancy methods, just pure frontal confrontation!

"Swoosh!"

With one sword slash, a massive Sword Qi emerged, and a chilling sharpness burst forth.

The sky full of fist imprints released by Xu Tianlong were incredibly fragile under this Sword Qi from Ye Chen, shattering completely.

Xu Tianlong's expression changed as he immediately halted his descending body, twisting in mid-air to narrowly avoid Ye Chen's slashing Sword Qi.

However, at the moment he dodged, a golden light flashed under Ye Chen's feet, and he was already in front of Xu Tianlong, sweeping his Celestial Mark Sword horizontally.

The Cyan Dragon Illusion instantly appeared within the sword light, its power magnificent!

Xu Tianlong could only raise a Yuan power defense in front of him.

"Boom!"

The Cyan Dragon Sword Qi, with overwhelming force, directly shattered Xu Tianlong's Yuan power defense. Xu Tianlong let out a miserable scream, his body flying backward like a broken kite.

"Bang!"

Xu Tianlong's body crashed heavily on the ground, creating a huge crater.

His reaction was quite quick, immediately bouncing back up after landing.

But Ye Chen's sword moves were equally fast.

Just as Xu Tianlong rushed out from the swirling dust, Ye Chen's sword was already swinging down toward Xu Tianlong's head.

This scene.

It was as if Xu Tianlong was rushing headlong into Ye Chen's sword edge.

"Swoosh!"

The whistling sword light directly cleaved Xu Tianlong's body in half, exploding it!

Ye Chen's figure landed steadily.

The surface of the Celestial Mark Sword, having just killed someone, bore not a trace of blood.

"Elder Yue, I said it would be quick."

Ye Chen sheathed his sword, looked at the dumbfounded Yue the Third beside him, and said with a calm smile.

At this moment, not only Yue the Third but everyone was stunned.

Even though Xu Tianlong had fallen off the Qingyun list and lost his pet beast, he was still a genuine Unity Realm martial artist.

And Ye Chen, as everyone roughly understood, was only at the peak of the Primordial Embryo Realm, not yet stepping into the Mortal Transformation Realm.

The duel between the two ended in an absolute, overwhelming, and unsurprising way.

From the start to the finish, it only took a few breaths!

Everyone knew something about Ye Chen's past.

During the True Martial Hall examination, Ye Chen needed the assistance of a Celestial Seal Spirit Master and a little bird that could breathe fire to kill one of the weakest Unity Realm warriors of the Green Ghost Race.

Now, since joining the True Martial Hall, only two months have passed, and without relying on anyone's strength, Ye Chen could easily kill a martial artist of Xu Tianlong's level on his own.

Unbelievable!

The speed of improvement was too fast!

After a moment of pause, Yue the Third suddenly burst into laughter, saying, "Good lad, truly worthy of being recommended by Tian Bugui."

Ye Chen walked to Yue the Third's side, looked at Qi Yu, whose half face was beaten to a pulp, and said, "Did you see that clearly? If you provoke me again, this will be the outcome.

Oh, and go back and tell your Qi Cultivator's member, Qi Xiu, that I will come and spar with him in a few days!"

After saying this, Ye Chen looked at Yue the Third and said, "Elder Yue, shall we go?"

Yue the Third nodded, and then left with Ye Chen.

On the way.

Yue the Third said, "Are you really going to fight Qi Xiu?"

Ye Chen smiled and said, "Every young person wants to climb up the Qingyun list."

This statement was half true and half false.

To fight Qi Xiu, there was the Qin list factor, but more importantly, it was to get the Crescent Celestial Saber!

These past few nights, he had been discussing with Miss Hei how to poke the Moon God, and they'd developed feelings for each other. Miss Hei's matter was naturally his responsibility.

Ye Chen's plan regarding the Crescent Celestial Saber was very clear.

Stealing in the dark would easily trigger too many troubles.

Seizing the Crescent Celestial Saber openly was the most straightforward method!

The Qi Family wanted to use the Crescent Celestial Saber to celebrate Qi Xiu's entry into the Qingyun list, right?

Then just provoke Qi Xiu a bit, and take the Crescent Celestial Saber as a wager, and win it.

Today, he also ruined Qi Yu's face and made a statement; everything was set up perfectly.

Sometimes, doing things requires using your brain.

Thinking of this, three figures surfaced in Ye Chen's mind.

First Senior Brother Yuan Polu, the thick-browed Luo Tian, and the Bright Hall Master Tian Bugui.

These three served as negative examples of not using their brains when doing things.

The first two conclusions were drawn because Ye Chen was familiar with them, while Tian Bugui's was determined purely by intuition!

Therefore, he can't be like them; he must follow the path of intelligence!

Yue the Third said, "Qi Xiu's strength is not weak. Many people think he took advantage of Xu Tianlong's loss of his pet beast dragon to make it onto the Qingyun list, but in fact, that's not the case. Even if Xu Tianlong's pet beast dragon was still there, there's a great chance Xu Tianlong wouldn't be able to defeat Qi Xiu.

The Xu Tianlong you just fought was less than fifty percent of his peak strength, so don't become careless with Qi Xiu just because you overpowered Xu Tianlong."

Ye Chen said, "No worries, Qi Xiu is nothing. I'll break through to the Mortal Transformation Realm in a few days, and then crushing Qi Xiu will be as easy as chopping vegetables."

Even the corners of Yue the Third's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

Good lad.

The leap from Primordial Embryo to Mortal Transformation is a significant threshold.

How is it, in your words... you can just break through whenever?
