In an astonishing turn of events, Ye Wushuang, the top-ranked freshman, has single-handedly captured seventeen members of the Chu Clan and imprisoned them within a secluded valley in the trial zone. But his audacity does not end there. Ye Wushuang has brazenly issued a challenge, daring the senior disciples of both the Chu and Qin Clans who have entered the trial zone to come and attempt to kill him. This news has sent shockwaves through everyone, leaving them in a state of disbelief and trepidation.
In recent days, as senior disciples from the Chu and Qin Clans have ventured into the trial zone, many of the freshmen participating in the Lingyun Mountain trial have become aware of this explosive situation. But what can knowing do for them? These senior disciples have come with the sole purpose of hunting down and eliminating Ye Wushuang, and the matter seems to have little direct bearing on the others. The vast majority of the freshmen choose to turn a blind eye, feigning ignorance.
After all, if the disciples of the Chu and Qin Clans are willing to take such bold actions, it implies that they are not afraid of punishment from the academy. Should others recklessly intervene and bring the matter to the attention of the elders, they might end up being retaliated against by the Chu and Qin Clans and others. It is common knowledge that within the Qingyun Academy, there are many prodigies from various powerful families. But now, the hunters have become the hunted; the very people who came to kill have been captured and imprisoned, and they are even issuing threats to others. This is nothing but a blatant slap in the face of the Chu Clan’s offspring.
Many freshmen, upon hearing of this, could hardly believe it was true. Some, driven by curiosity and skepticism, even went to the valley themselves to verify it, only to find that more than a dozen Chu Clan disciples were indeed bound there. Three days have passed in the blink of an eye, and already three Chu Clan offspring have been killed by Ye Wushuang, their bodies unceremoniously thrown outside the valley. Everyone feels that Ye Wushuang has gone mad. By doing this, he has not only exposed himself but has also completely enraged the Chu Clan offspring who have violated the rules to enter the trial zone. Just imagine how疯狂 their revenge would be.
Until the fourth day.
From within the valley, the lifeless body of another Chu Clan offspring was thrown out. Killing one person a day, Ye Wushuang has kept his word. But on this day, outside the valley, the sound of breaking the air rang out, carrying a fierce and deadly aura. The Chu Clan’s offspring have arrived!
“Ye Wushuang, you have such audacity!” A roar of anger echoed for tens of miles around and even reverberated within the valley. Ye Wushuang, who had been sitting cross-legged by the valley pond, slowly opened his eyes and looked towards the valley entrance. “Finally… they have come…” He slowly stood up and walked towards the valley mouth.
“It’s Chu Qing!” Chu Yushan, who heard the roar, suddenly became spirited and shouted loudly, “Chu Qing, don’t be impulsive. Ye Wushuang has set up a spiritual array in this valley. Don’t rush in.”
Outside the valley, Chu Qing stood tall and upright, his robust attire highlighting his tiger-like temperament.
“Yushan?” Chu Qing immediately asked upon hearing Chu Yushan’s voice, “Yushan, how are you?”
“Don’t worry, he’s not dead yet, he’s still alive for now.” A leisurely voice sounded as Ye Wushuang arrived at the valley mouth and looked at Chu Qing in front of him, smiling and saying, “Just the two of you?”
Chu Qing’s eyes immediately filled with murderous intent upon seeing Ye Wushuang. A mere orphan of the Ye Clan has actually caused such embarrassment and humiliation to their Chu Clan! Ye Wushuang must die. Now that things have escalated, the academy will surely find out, and it is inevitable that the Chu Clan’s influence within the Qingyun Academy will be affected. But at this point, there is nothing more to say. Killing Ye Wushuang is worth any trouble caused! The treasure on this boy is of utmost importance and must not fall into the hands of the Qin Clan.
“Ye Wushuang, do you realize you are at the end of your rope?” Chu Qing calmed down and said, “Now, release our Chu Clan offspring and hand over the Ye Clan’s treasure on you. We won’t kill your family. As for you, death is certain!”
“Otherwise…”
“Otherwise, what can you do?” Ye Wushuang interrupted Chu Qing’s words and sneered, “A mere seventh-rank of the Condensation Meridian realm, and you dare to threaten me? Haven’t you seen that even Chu Yushan has been captured by me?”
“Or do you think that your seventh-rank of the Condensation Meridian realm is stronger than Chu Yushan’s, and you want to test whether my sword is… sharp enough?”
