Li Wenbo quickly said, “Jie Ou, you’ve been out on a mission and don’t know what’s been happening in the sect. Don’t act rashly.”
Jie Ou chuckled and said, “How could I not know? I ran into Jiang Yihan, and he told me everything.”
“Ye Wushuang, seventeen years old, was at the eighth level of Tengang half a month ago, and now he’s at the ninth level.”
“Half a month ago, at the eighth level of Tengang, he defeated Li Bai Fan in just three moves.”
“I heard from that kid Jiang Yihan that as soon as he broke through to the first level of Wanfa, he privately challenged you to a duel and ended up losing. Now he’s too embarrassed to show his bruised face in public.”
“To be honest, I’ve improved during my time away, and now I’m at the second level of Wanfa. I also want to have a friendly match with you.”
With a carefree expression, Jie Ou said, “So, what do you say? We’re both men here. Let’s make this quick. Do you dare to compete with me, Baldy the Strong?”
Li Wenbo and Su Jin Yue stood by, speechless. The nickname was so embarrassing that they wouldn’t even give it to someone else. Yet Jie Ou wore it with pride, constantly using it without a hint of shame.
Seeing Jie Ou’s earnest expression, Ye Wushuang smiled slightly and nodded, “Sure, why not?”
Jie Ou laughed heartily, “That’s the spirit!”
“Let’s go, to the sparring ground on Lingjian Mountain!”
With that, Jie Ou hoisted his massive blade onto his shoulder and set off immediately.
Li Wenbo paid the bill with a pained expression, then turned to Ye Wushuang and said, “Brother Ye, don’t take it personally. Both Jie Ou and Jiang Yihan are the youngest disciples of Master Shi Wuhen.”
“These two are just simpletons.”
Su Jin Yue stood by, speechless. If she were to describe others as simpletons, what about herself?
Upon hearing this, Ye Wushuang nodded. In fact, from Jie Ou’s words and demeanor, he hadn’t detected any hint of disdain or provocation. Instead, it was more of an eager desire to challenge someone strong. Jie Ou simply wanted to test his skills against a formidable opponent.
Soon, the four of them returned to Lingjian Mountain. However, as they made their way back, they encountered several disciples who stared at them with strange looks.
“What’s going on?” Li Wenbo asked, bewildered.
At that moment, a female disciple approached. It was Shui Wanrong.
Shui Wanrong looked at Ye Wushuang with her beautiful eyes and said in surprise, “You’re going to have a match with Jie Ou?”
Li Wenbo, standing by, asked blankly, “How did you know?”
Shui Wanrong replied with a shocked expression, “Jie Ou just came back and shouted all the way along the main road of Lingjian Mountain!”
“What did he shout?”
“I, Jie Ou, have returned and will have a match with Ye Wushuang at the sparring ground. Everyone, come and watch!”
Shui Wanrong repeated the words exactly as Jie Ou had shouted.
Li Wenbo and Su Jin Yue’s faces turned dark with embarrassment. This guy… really had no common sense!
“Is it true?” Shui Wanrong asked, her face filled with disbelief.
Previously, when Jiang Yihan had challenged Ye Wushuang, the several mountain lords had intervened and, to be precise, scared him off. But later, after Jiang Yihan broke through to the Wanfa realm and became the seventh core disciple, he immediately sought out Ye Wushuang. What happened afterward was unknown to everyone. Since that day, Jiang Yihan had vanished from public sight.
Now, as soon as Jie Ou returned to Lingjian Mountain, he loudly announced his intention to have a match with Ye Wushuang, which naturally sparked a lot of speculation.
Lingjian Mountain had a specially designated valley that served as a sparring ground for both inner and outer disciples to practice and compete.
At that moment, within a vast valley, the ground was paved with hard black steel source stones. Such stones were so tough that even a Wanfa cultivator would find it difficult to leave a mark on them. The walls of the valley were inscribed with glowing array symbols.
At this moment, the peaks surrounding the valley were already occupied by over a hundred figures.
Inside the valley,
Jie Ou stood with one hand on his massive blade and the other on his hip, wearing a calm and composed expression. After learning from Jiang Yihan that he had reached the Wanfa realm only to be defeated by Ye Wushuang, who was still at the Tengang level, Jie Ou was extremely surprised.
So, he immediately sought out Ye Wushuang for a duel.
Ye Wushuang, at the ninth level of Tengang, was a core disciple personally appointed by Lord Siyin and a new generation of genius who had captured everyone’s attention.
If Jie Ou could defeat Ye Wushuang in front of a large audience,
how cool would that be!
However, while Jie Ou was fantasizing about his moment of glory, a figure appeared on the mountaintop…
