Chapter 374: Chapter 372: Striving for First Place

"Demon God Physique?" Xiao Ye’s expression turned solemn as he realized that this physique was extremely terrifying, likely one of the top Heavenly Level special physiques.

It seems he had underestimated the opponent.

Boom!

In that instant, Jun Shitian roared loudly and charged forward. A huge Demon Shadow formed behind him, emitting boundless Demonic Qi. His pair of Demon Fists, indestructible, smashed down like two mountain peaks, exerting a terrifying suppression.

Just as Xiao Ye was about to make his move, a figure enveloped in endless starlight stepped in to block Jun Shitian before him.

"Jun Shitian, your opponent is me." Nangong Xingyu’s robes fluttered as if he was a scholar, casually repelling Jun Shitian’s attack with a palm strike.

Behind him, a vast universe emerged, with stars disintegrating and being reborn, as beautiful and variegated as fireworks, endless starlight erupting and swirling around Nangong Xingyu.

A Heavenly Level special physique!

Nangong Xingyu’s special physique, lacking the intimidating effect of Jun Shitian’s, was still stunningly awe-inspiring to the extent it rendered others feeling insignificant.

How can human strength compare with my vast universe?

"Xiao Ye, I’ll hold him off; you go and compete for a top ten position," Nangong Xingyu communicated with his power.

Hearing this, Xiao Ye’s face showed helplessness. Is this Nangong Xingyu’s way of repaying him? What he aimed for was the first place.

"Hmph, Nangong Xingyu, it’s you again!" A cold glint shot from Jun Shitian’s eyes, "Your Heavenly Level special physique is flawed and not perfect, you can’t block me."

Nangong Xingyu’s expression remained calm, his hair fluttering, "Jun Shitian, why mock one and ignore the faults of others? Your Demon God Physique is also flawed."

"And Jinpengzi has nothing to do with you, yet you keep protecting him. If I am not mistaken, that is because he is the ’Blood Seed’ for your Demon God Physique, right?"

"Only when the Blood Seed matures and you devour it, will your Demon God Physique gradually grow."

Nangong Xingyu spoke indifferently, his power transmitting his voice, purposefully explaining to Xiao Ye. His few sentences shocked Jun Shitian tremendously, his face filled with astonishment.

"You... who exactly are you? You even know about the Blood Seed matter, could it be that you are from that place?"

Nangong Xingyu smiled faintly upon hearing this, responding with a question, "I am more curious about your origins."

Jun Shitian’s expression turned awkward, then he coldly said, "No matter where you are from, anyone who dares to obstruct me must die!"

Boom!

As Jun Shitian’s figure surged forward, the Demon God behind him lifted a massive foot and viciously stomped towards Nangong Xingyu.

Nangong Xingyu rapidly formed Seal Techniques with his hands; from the vast universe behind him, a great star surged forth, filling the sky, confronting the Demon God’s foot.

Rumble!

A colossal battle between two Peak Strong People erupted, forcing the surrounding Young Talents to continually retreat, daring not to come close.

These two were far too extraordinary, with few able to withstand them.

"A flawed special physique? Jinpengzi is a Blood Seed?" Xiao Ye sank into thought, racked with confusion.

In fact, he had sensed long ago that the extremely rare top-tier special physiques didn’t manifest overwhelming power in Nangong Xingyu as it should according to the name of a Heavenly Level special physique.

You should know, Bing Ya, who also possessed a Heavenly Level special physique, had already advanced to King Martial Realm at this age, while Nangong Xingyu was only in Void Martial Realm.

Now he understood that this was because the special physique was flawed and not perfect, seeming like special physiques too needed to be cultivated step by step to grow stronger.

Moreover, from their conversation, it appeared neither Nangong Xingyu nor Jun Shitian was from East State.

Then, Xiao Ye shook his head. Where they came from was irrelevant to him; what he needed to secure was the first place.

Xiao Ye’s eyes glittered as he looked towards the center.

At that moment, Nangong Xingyu and Jun Shitian’s peak battle shifted from the plaza to other parts of the continent. The terrifying power, with them at its center, swept in all directions, causing the whole world to tremble, endless suppression enveloping the entire space.

Instantly, mountains were overturned, rivers evaporated completely, even prompting exclamations of amazement from the Dynasty Envoy.

The brilliance of this battle far exceeded his expectations; both Nangong Xingyu and Jun Shitian exhibited peak combat power, releasing endless deadly moves. The two fought indecisively, inseparable.

As they moved away from the plaza, other Young Talents launched even fiercer attacks on the seats, each determined to secure a top ten ranking.

Swoosh!

Xiao Ye no longer paid attention to Jun Shitian and Nangong Xingyu, leaping up and flying directly toward the first-ranked position.

"Hmph, you think you can take the first place?" Suddenly, a short-haired young man coldly watched Xiao Ye, kicking away someone challenging him, and mockingly said to Xiao Ye.

"Cao Wen!" Xiao Ye’s eyes sharpened as he recognized him.

This person had revealed hidden strength in the previous round, having understood the Law Profound Mysteries and also being a Heavenly Son with strong capabilities; however, he was blown away by a punch from Jun Shitian, settling for the third place.

He thought his power was definitely above Xiao Ye’s; how could Xiao Ye possibly take the first place? Thus, he couldn’t resist ridiculing him.

"Do you intend to obstruct me?" Xiao Ye said indifferently.

"If you do not use the Void Artifact, I wouldn’t mind giving you a few pointers to show you the vast difference between heaven and earth," Cao Wen declared fiercely, his face full of arrogance.

Xiao Ye was slightly stunned, speechless in his heart.

Isn’t this guy a bit too narcissistic? Does he think that aside from Nangong Xingyu and Jun Shitian, no one else can contend with him?

"Put it down, dealing with someone like you doesn’t require using something major for something so minor." After Xiao Ye spoke, he took a step forward, his body radiating unparalleled golden light. Clenching his fists, he attacked Cao Wen with an imposing force.

"Are you trying to humiliate me? You’ll regret this!" Cao Wen roared angrily. Amidst the trembling heaven and earth, a violent wind rose, greatly increasing his speed. He left a trail of illusions where he stood, causing Xiao Ye’s punch to miss.

"Haha, what I have comprehended is the Wind Profoundness, which can increase my speed enormously. How can you fight me?" Cao Wen boasted exorbitantly, standing amidst boundless fierce winds.

"The Natural Law’s Wind Profoundness?" Xiao Ye’s eyes sparkled with a strange sheen, surprised by the Wind Profoundness’s remarkable use in enhancing speed.

"Now, just lie down for me!"

Cao Wen bellowed, charging towards Xiao Ye with extreme speed, leaving a long string of illusions behind him, attracting many gazes.

In Xiao Ye’s pitch-black pupils, Cao Wen’s arrogant appearance was reflected. Xiao Ye sneered repeatedly in his heart, thinking this guy is truly an idiot, not even utilizing the power of his special physique, thinking just because he’s fast he could defeat him?

Then I’ll just restrain you completely!

Boom!

The four Xuandans within Xiao Ye trembled together, and after operating the Four Profound Treasure Technique, a restraining force surged towards Cao Wen, locking the void around him.

In that moment, the boundless fierce winds came to a halt, including Cao Wen’s body, which was frozen mid-air, unable to move.

The King Martial Realm Experts observing this battle were astonished by the scene.

"Restraining the void, isn’t that a technique only King Martial Realm Experts possess? Brother Xingyun, could it be that Xiao Ye is also a Heavenly Son?"

King Xingyun didn’t answer, as he was also completely baffled.

"It seems there are still many secrets within Xiao Ye," King Xingyun thought to himself quietly.

...

"What the hell is going on?"

Cao Wen’s forehead dripped with cold sweat, finally understanding how Jinpengzi was killed by Xiao Ye. He quickly tried to harness his power to break the restraint.

Just as the restraint slightly loosened, a voice filled with mockery resounded next to his ear.

"It seems, in the end, you are the one lying down."

As soon as the words fell, Cao Wen felt a palm covering his skull, followed by a terrifying force surging, then transforming into a giant hand, pressing down like a massive mountain.

"Ah!"

Cao Wen screamed tragically, his body was pressed down from the sky, directly smashed into the ground by that giant hand, his body halfway buried, blood spewing from his mouth.

"What an idiot!" Xiao Ye shook his head.

If Cao Wen hadn’t underestimated him from the beginning, he wouldn’t have been defeated so quickly. However, even if Cao Wen had used all his strength, he still couldn’t escape defeat.

Thinking thus, Xiao Ye walked towards the premier seat.

"Hmph, my seat is not something someone like you can sit on." Just then, Xiao Ye felt a darkness before his eyes, followed by a huge foot stomping down towards him, monstrous Demonic Qi spreading across the space.

Without doubt, it was Jun Shitian making his move.

"Get lost!"

Xiao Ye roared, his eyes shooting out two beams of peerless light, meeting the giant foot with a punch.

Boom!

Thirty-six True Dragons flew out along Xiao Ye’s arm, dragon might filled the entire heaven and earth, repelling the foot and brightening Xiao Ye’s vision.

He saw Jun Shitian in the distance, releasing terrifying Demonic Qi. After a feint with Nangong Xingyu, he flew towards Xiao Ye, like a Demon God descending.

"I’ll kill you first, then have a battle with Nangong Xingyu," Jun Shitian said, filled with disdain for Xiao Ye and confidence in himself.

As soon as he spoke, Jun Shitian slapped out, darkening the whole heaven and earth, carrying a terrifying aura, intending to annihilate Xiao Ye in this single strike.

"Jun Shitian, I’m afraid you won’t have a chance to continue your fight with Nangong Xingyu, because I will kill you!"

Xiao Ye no longer wasted words, his eyes turning blood red, suddenly a staggering killing aura swept out from around him. Layers of blood light shot straight into the Nine Heavens, tearing through the Heaven.

Boom!

Xiao Ye, like a Death God, soared into the sky, his black hair slowly turning blood-red, the fierce Blood-colored Blade Light tearing through the Demonic Qi, the killing Sword Intent shattering the Nine Heavens.

The Half-level Slaughter Principle he comprehended, for the first time, manifested in the world!
