Primordial Divine Emperor-Chapter 85 - 75: Clash of Peerless Demon Fiends (Part 2)
"I believe in Ye Xiaotian’s character. He wouldn’t be foolish enough to use cheating methods in the tournament. Even if not for himself, he would consider the one on South Peak. Besides, Ye is not such a foolish person."
Hearing Nangong Jianchen’s words, Shangguan Wan’Er finally showed a happy smile, "I also trust Brother Xiaofan’s character."
After more than a year of interaction, even if it can’t fully comprehend a person, it’s enough to reveal some clues. Shangguan Wan’Er no longer feels the previous unfamiliarity with Ye Xiaofan.
After they finished speaking, Mo Shiyi also nodded slightly and said, "Although my time with Junior Brother Ye isn’t as long as yours, and this may seem unreasonable, I also choose to side with Junior Brother Ye this time."
When the three finished speaking, they all exchanged smiles, but their expressions changed when they looked at the Martial Arts Arena.
If Ye Xiaofan has no reason to cheat, then his Array Dao talent is terrifyingly extraordinary.
At the same time.
On a Spirit Peak in the Spirit Sword Peak area.
Ye Xiaotian also stared dumbfounded at the figure, with suspicion in his eyes but remained silent.
Ye Xiaotian was not the only one feeling incredulous at this scene.
The new and veteran disciples from Ten Cities were equally filled with disbelief.
"He actually made it to this point? Is he the first in the history of our Ten Cities’ prodigies to stand among the top hundred in the Array Peak tournament?"
"Ye Xiaofan? His name is Ye Xiaofan?"
"I hope he truly didn’t cheat, otherwise, our Ten Cities’ prodigies will never hold their heads high in the Divine Sword Sect again."
Many veteran students from Ten Cities murmured to themselves, evidently suspecting that the young man likely cheated.
However, as the outside world buzzed with speculation.
The new disciples eliminated by Ye Xiaofan by the arena gradually opened their eyes in meditation, eyes surging with tumultuous waves.
As of now, only these Array Peak disciples know how terrifying that person’s Killing Array was, a completely different level of existence.
However, countless distant Divine Sword Sect disciples broke into an uproar; once cheating rumors spread, it immediately caused a sensation.
"Daring to cheat under everyone’s eyes, does that boy have a death wish?"
"The Divine Sword Sect despises cheating the most. Even though the Array Peak may not investigate now, once revealed after the tournament, not even the Sword Saint can protect him."
"Why wait until the tournament ends to investigate? Facing Senior Brother Luo Feng, he’ll be exposed immediately."
Many Divine Sword Sect disciples were convinced that the Child of Destiny with less than a Level One Martial Soul must have cheated. If not, there’s simply no way such a useless Martial Soul could stand now; no, it’s absolutely impossible.
Outside the Martial Arts Arena.
Li Chunyang was shocked speechless seeing Ye Xiaofan still on the stage, but hearing everyone’s remarks now, even he felt that person had cheated, and he couldn’t help but smile.
Compared to being eliminated at the start, cheating is more egregious, especially in a Divine Sect like the Divine Sword Sect, which has zero tolerance for cheating in disciple tournaments.
If this became true, then Ye Xiaofan, forget being the Sword Saint’s successor, likely couldn’t even stay in the Divine Sword Sect.
Even at this moment, countless Divine Sword Sect disciples still refused to believe that figure could be a peerless Demon Fiend.
Only one person, however, narrowed his eyes, filled with seriousness.
That was Luo Feng, who had been watching Ye Xiaofan ever since the clearing. Even he was extremely wary of the opponent’s array expertise.
"To think the overlooked Sword Saint successor is actually a peerless Array Dao genius." Luo Feng stared intently at Ye Xiaofan, speaking slowly.
Though separated by a mile, Luo Feng’s words reached Ye Xiaofan’s ears.
After Luo Feng finished speaking, a hint of doubt emerged in his eyes, as if he shared the uncertainty with Ning Xianyi and Luo Qingxian, questioning things that seemed settled: "I’m really starting to wonder now, is Junior Brother Ye’s Martial Soul really less than a Level One Plant Martial Soul?"
Facing Luo Feng’s doubts, Ye Xiaofan smiled without speaking.
Sometimes, not explaining is more effective than explaining. He neither admitted nor denied. If people want to guess, then let them. He can’t always carry the waste Martial Soul label, as his strength grows stronger, this concealment will become more suspicious.
He might as well adopt Mu Yan and Ning Canghai’s initial idea: assume the Sword Saint tampered with his Martial Soul test results. Such things are quite normal in the Martial Soul Continent. For example, Nangong Jianchen and Shangguan Wan’Er’s Martial Souls haven’t been revealed yet.
Seeing Ye Xiaofan’s lack of denial, Luo Feng gradually formed his own conclusion.
"It seems Junior Brother Ye’s Martial Soul awakening wasn’t as everyone thinks. In that case, I won’t hold back anymore."
Saying this, Luo Feng slowly put away over twenty amber flags, as well as countless hidden array flags in the void, eyeing Ye Xiaofan quietly: "Junior Brother Ye, you needn’t hold back anymore either. Show your most powerful array, and let’s settle this with an array battle."
Luo Feng raised his head slightly, eyes blazing with fighting spirit.
It’s evident that he’s already seen Ye Xiaofan as a worthy opponent. If all Divine Sword Sect disciples knew this, it would surely cause a huge commotion, as few new Array Peak disciples have earned the peerless genius Luo Feng’s respect.
Ye Xiaofan shook his head lightly upon hearing this. Though seen as a threat, he’d rather not get entangled.
Ultimately, Luo Feng still cares about the ’waste’ title, fearing controversy if he can’t quickly defeat Ye Xiaofan.
"Since Senior Brother says so, I’ll oblige," Ye Xiaofan finished, slowly retrieving more than twenty amber flags and countless array flags arranged in the void.
Clearly, both know that this level of Killing Array can’t defeat the other. Rather than having their array flags destroyed in the upcoming array battle, it’s better to take them back proactively.
Seeing this, Luo Feng slightly raised his head, eyes emitting two array patterns, then swung his hand as countless terrifying array flags whirled forth, fearsome as ever.
Ye Xiaofan observed, raising his eyes slightly in surprise. As expected from a peerless Array Peak genius, these array flags far surpass those just moments ago in quality.
He didn’t hesitate, seizing every second, as array flags manifested with waves of his hand, merging into the surrounding heavens.
Outside the arena, countless Divine Sword Sect disciples watched as the two waved countless array flags, utterly bewildered, with boundless turbulence in their hearts.
"What does this mean? He wants to compete in arrays with Senior Brother Luo Feng?"
