Within the Bamboo Heaven Cave, Yi Chen sat opposite King Jing.

Between the two of them, there lay a chessboard resembling Xiangqi, complete with Chariots, Horses, and Elephants.

"Your Highness, trust in my judgment, no matter how ingenious the scheme, there will always be clever people who notice the spider’s threads and horse tracks."

"Therefore, rather than having our flaws pointed out by others, let’s set the tempo ourselves."

"Your Highness, you start by spreading the word that I’m intentionally concealing my talent, then debunk it yourself. I have already highlighted all the details and informed Your Highness."

First shoot the arrow, then draw the target, this was Yi Chen’s current tactic.

The ’easter eggs’ he hid during the great battle were truly plentiful; just a slight guidance in the rhythm, and there would be plenty of busybodies to debate for him, ultimately overwhelmed by an onslaught of information.

To fade into the background, he even selected more than a dozen cultivators also ’hiding their skills’. Once this became a trend, the attention on him would naturally wane, and only then could he upgrade his scythe of reaping to a combined harvester.

"Your Highness, the people of the Controlling Spirit Holy Puppet Sect have been showing strong ambition recently, even challenging the Wuding Divine Sect. This can be dug into deeper."

"That Xue Lingzi and the True Monarch Tian Ku of this sect have participated in the war and are highly suspicious; they are definitely concealing their skills. Lead the attention to these two specifically."

"General!"

After thinking for a while, Yi Chen added another line.

To effectively target someone, one must not only hide themselves properly but also provide others with a distraction to vent their focus. If the attention shifted onto others, wouldn’t the fire focused on Yi Taoist be less?

"Hidden Dragon Taoist, such talent—" King Jing looked at Yi Chen with a complicated expression. Over these days, he had seen many of Yi Chen’s tricks, both aboveboard and underhanded.

Some were sinister, and some were outright brutal strategies, unavoidable, yet the effects were startlingly successful.

He felt deep shame for his previous statement that the Hidden Dragon Taoist had a pure and kind heart.

At this moment, King Jing suddenly thought of a possibility. How could the Martial King’s movements be concealed from him?

He couldn’t help but ask Yi Chen, "Taoist, in this battle, I have nearly staked my entire fortune. If the Martial King’s hidden man ascends to the Dao Mastery Realm just before the battle, how confident are you?"

"A breakthrough to the Dao Mastery Realm on the eve of battle? How impressive."

"Then I’ll just transform, won’t I~"

Yi Chen looked at King Jing, who was somewhat anxious, clearly aware of his concerns about the person the Martial King was hiding.

"General! Your Highness, you’ve lost!"

Yi Chen slowly stood up and burst into a hearty laugh:

"Across the Chu River and Han boundaries, I call the shots, dominating all sides!"

"In this volatile world, I dictate the flow, defeating all heroes!"

"Since I dare to enter this mortal battlefield, how could I have no assurance? Rest easy, Your Highness."

Amidst the laughter, Yi Chen’s figure slowly vanished on the spot. After King Jing finished the fine wine in his cup, his uneasy heart was smoothed by the strong confidence in that laughter, and he became calm again.

"The clouds part for the autumn moon, swords flash like falling meteors!"

"I’ve comprehended (liao)"

"Hai Tianwu, take my sword! Celestial Waterfall Meteor!"

The joyful laughter of Ye Qingxue from the Qianyuan Sword Sect resonated across the arena, as the sword light illuminated the stunned face of Zhen Tian Sea City’s Tian Wu, who had had a rough day.

His Cultivation Technique was extremely effective against this Fairy Ye’s sword moves, yet who could expect the opponent to achieve enlightenment of a new move in the midst of battle?

In an instant, the world suddenly burst into dazzling light.

Sword Qi soared like a rainbow, shooting up from the ground, piercing the heavens!

The clouds were rent asunder, and the powerful Sword Qi blasted Hai Tianwu’s robust body up to the skyline, where he disappeared like a shooting star.

The Sword Qi dissipated, and Ye Qingxue seemed to have been tempered once again, her aura becoming even sharper.

The great battle on the platform had ended, and the cultivators in shock at what they had just witnessed broke into cheers that filled the mountains and valleys.

A royal edict descended from deep within the clouds, the list of the top sixty-four had been contested and emerged.

Two days later, the prominent words, "Ye Qingxue versus Lord Tan Lang, the Freewheeling Star," stood out.

Seeing this scene, many of Ye Qingxue’s supporters cheered out loud once again.

She won, advanced by default, Fairy Ye had far outshone Lord Tan Lang.
