974 It’s All a Grudge
“So what?” Ye Qiu smiled and looked straight at Daoist Tianfeng. After waiting for more than a month, he had finally waited until the last day. His disciples’ performance had ended, so it was time for him to personally go on stage.
“Damn it! This child is too arrogant. How dare he bully my Heavenly Dao Peak like this?”
As soon as Ye Qiu said this, it instantly aroused public anger. If his disciple had only ignited the anger of the disciples previously, then Ye Qiu’s words had directly ignited all the disciples of the Heavenly Dao lineage.
The atmosphere completely froze at this moment, becoming especially gloomy. Everyone watched this exciting scene nervously.
“Oh my god, has it finally begun? How exciting. You’re playing so big right from the start.”
“Could it be that he really dares to challenge Senior Tianfeng? In the end, he’s only in the Dao Sacrificial realm. No matter how talented he is, isn’t it a little arrogant to challenge an expert above the Dao Sacrificial realm?”
“Good lord! I knew he was going to play big. I didn’t wait so many days in vain. He immediately used a big move.”
There was an uproar at the scene. Everyone discussed animatedly, and their emotions were ignited. They were in high spirits. Everyone looked at the Heavenly Dao lineage’s team. How should they deal with Ye Qiu’s provocation?
Should they retreat? Or should they counterattack head-on?
The atmosphere became even more oppressive. The three candidates for the Heaven Mending Goddess, Ling Tian, Lan Zhan, Ye Qingxuan, and the others, all looked over. Even they were shocked by Ye Qiu’s words. They originally thought that Ye Qiu would at most provoke Xiao Jinse. After all, there was indeed an unfinished battle between them.
Who would have thought that he would actually challenge Daoist Tianfeng? What did this mean?
“F*ck! Is he playing so big? Damn it, he got it.” Ye Qingxuan cursed and looked at Xiao Jinse. He saw him slowly walk out with a gloomy expression.
“Ye Qiu! I admit that you’re very strong, but you’re probably not qualified to challenge my master, right? Why don’t I spar with you?”
Two astonishing sword energy instantly drew their swords. A violent wind blew, and the entire hall fell into a dead silence.
“It’s here, it’s here! The exciting moment is finally here.”
“Haha, the true peak battle is finally coming! I’ve waited for more than a month and have finally waited for the moment these two people fight.”
As if they had seen a huge battle about to begin, everyone revealed excited smiles and looked forward to it.
Seeing this situation, Ye Qingxuan and the others also understood that it was time for them to appear.
“Wait!” As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Qingxuan was the first to fly over and slowly land on a stone pillar. He said with an incomparably arrogant expression, “I, Ye Qingxuan, officially challenge the position of Deity. Ye Qiu, do you dare to accept the challenge?”
“What!”
As soon as Ye Qingxuan said this, the crowd instantly erupted. Ye Qingxuan actually wanted to challenge Ye Qiu? What did this mean? Weren’t the two of them on good terms? At least in the eyes of outsiders, these two people seemed to have a good relationship, but what was Ye Qingxuan’s intention?
They were puzzled.
Only Ye Qingxuan knew the truth. He had already set his goal before the Heaven Mending Assembly, which was to break through to the Deity position. Ye Qiu was the greatest obstacle on the path to becoming the Deity.
Be it out of his goal or because of his mental demons, Ye Qingxuan wanted to challenge Ye Qiu. It didn’t matter even if he lost. If he didn’t fight, these mental demons would haunt him for the rest of his life.
Being afraid of the enemy before the battle was the greatest mental demon as a genius.
Ye Qingxuan was the first to issue a challenge. His goal was very clear. He wanted to face the most perfect Ye Qiu and not leave any regrets in his life. He knew very well that once Ye Qiu and Xiao Jinse fought, it would definitely be an internecine outcome. At that time, it would be an unfair victory for him to attack.
Therefore, he had to fight!
He wasn’t the only one who had this thought. Currently, there are many people qualified to challenge Ye Qiu in this arena. They had been eyeing him covetously, waiting for an opportunity.
Seeing that Ye Qingxuan was the first to speak, Ling Tian could no longer sit still.
Ling Tian flew over and looked at Ye Qingxuan with disdain. Then, he said, “I, Ling Tian, request to fight. May I ask Senior Brother Ye if you dare to accept the challenge?”
Ling Tian was still polite. He had the same mental demon as Ye Qingxuan, but he admired Ye Qiu from the bottom of his heart. The two did not conflict.
“Oh? Another one who wants to challenge me. I didn’t expect myself to be so popular.” Ye Qiu was amused when he saw that two people wanted to challenge him at the same time. This was the situation he wanted to see.
There were already three people, including Xiao Jinse.
Ye Qiu glanced at the entire Seven Stars Hall and swept his gaze across everyone. He continued, “Apart from them, is there anyone else who wants to challenge me? The position of Deity is just here. Aren’t you tempted?”
“Wow, he’s too arrogant! I like it.”
“How can he remain calm and even have the mood to tease when facing the challenge of three top geniuses at the same time?”
Everyone was shocked, and Xiao Jinse frowned. He originally thought that Ye Qiu would give him a fair chance to fight, but he didn’t expect the other party to underestimate him so much.
He was very unhappy and even angry, but he did not show it too much.
As soon as he finished speaking, several more figures appeared in the arena.
“Xiao Mo, request to fight!”
“Han Sheng, request to fight!”
“Lu Chaofeng, request to fight!”
Three more challengers appeared in a row. Ye Qiu was amused when he saw these familiar faces. Apart from Han Sheng, who he did not know, the rest of this group of challengers were all acquaintances.
From the looks of it, Lu Chaofeng should be the weakest in this group. He was only at the early-stage Dao Sacrificial realm. The others had all reached the mid-stage, late-stage, and peak of the Dao Sacrificial realm.
Seeing that the atmosphere was already anxious, Ye Qiu was about to speak when he heard a very refined voice.
“Haha, so lively? Then I want to join in the fun. However, I’m not interested in the position of Deity.” As soon as he finished speaking, the blue-clothed youth in white who had been silent all along slowly walked out from the Wangchuan lineage. He had the aura of a scholar, free and easy. His personality was very refined and gentle. His gaze met Xiao Jinse’s and he smiled. “Senior Brother Xiao! I wonder if you can give me the honors and compete with me?”
“Hiss…”
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd erupted. Good lord, the big show had been placed on this day for more than a month of intense competition.
Almost every match was a grudge!
Not to mention Ye Qiu and the five challengers, Lan Zhan and Xiao Jinse were sworn enemies from a hundred years ago.
