Chapter 1930: I Accept!

On the Purple Xuan Arena, two auras were fiercely clashing.

One aura was vast as the boundless ocean, while the other seemed extremely weak before it.

Yet that weak aura stood firm as a rock, unmoved no matter how the tides surged.

The stronger one had sweat on his brow; the weaker one remained composed, still as a pine.

"Condense!"

Ye Yuan gave a cold shout, and the pill was formed!

Li Danqing sighed, bowed to Ye Yuan, and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Brother Ye. I concede defeat."

This Li Danqing was the third-ranked expert on the Purple Xuan Arena, a six-star Divine Pill Master.

Yet before Ye Yuan, he still ended up defeated.

Ye Yuan cupped his hands and smiled, "Guidance is too strong a word; it was just a friendly exchange. Brother Li is powerful, infinitely close to the Dao Realm. Just one step away from leaping over the dragon's gate!"

Hearing this, Li Danqing's eyes flashed with joy, and he smiled, "Thanks to Brother Ye's guidance just now, I have gained some insight. I hope to break through to the Dao Realm this time!"

Ye Yuan smiled, "Then I congratulate Brother Li in advance!"

With this victory, Ye Yuan had won eighty consecutive matches on the Purple Xuan Arena. He needed only twenty more wins to advance to Black Scale.

Ye Yuan's winning streak was simply unstoppable.

Although these six-star Divine Pill Masters were much stronger than five-star ones, with far greater soul power, they were still no match for Ye Yuan.

In this kind of pill duel, direct soul power attacks were forbidden; one could only influence the opponent through the momentum formed by one's own pill refinement.

Otherwise, with the soul power of a six-star Divine Pill Master, it would be too easy to kill a five-star one.

Of course, with Ye Yuan's methods, even if the opponent really used soul power to attack him, he was not afraid at all.

With the Soul-Calming Pearl, such an act would only be suicidal.

Ye Yuan successfully defended his position and was about to leave when suddenly a figure leaped onto the arena.

It was a middle-aged man in a black robe, looking at Ye Yuan with a contemptuous expression.

"Are you Ye Yuan?" the black-robed middle-aged man said.

Ye Yuan did not know him, but clearly the man came with ill intent. Ye Yuan naturally ignored him and was about to step off the arena.

The black-robed middle-aged man frowned, moved, and blocked Ye Yuan's path, sneering, "I'm talking to you. Are you deaf?"

The referee frowned slightly and said, "Yu Ying, what are you doing on the Purple Xuan Arena? Are you trying to cause trouble? Don't forget the rules of the Dan Chen Pavilion."

"Yu Ying! So he's Yu Ying!"

"Good heavens, this is a top-five super expert of Black Scale. It's said he reached the Dao Realm ten thousand years ago!"

"Looks like he's here with ill intent! This is going to be interesting."

...

As soon as the referee spoke, the crowd below erupted.

Clearly, Yu Ying's name was extremely famous; these people had all heard of him.

However, Black Scale alchemists were different from Purple Xuan ones. Each of them was a major figure renowned in their own right, rarely appearing in public, so few had seen them.

Now that the referee had revealed Yu Ying's name, they were naturally shocked.

But they were curious as to why Yu Ying would seek trouble with Ye Yuan.

Yu Ying said indifferently, "Wang Jian, this is none of your business! I naturally understand the rules of the Dan Chen Pavilion; no need for you to remind me."

The referee, Wang Jian, was also a Black Scale alchemist, with a very high status.

But in terms of rank within the Black Scale level, Wang Jian was far inferior to Yu Ying.

Yu Ying stared intently at Ye Yuan and said, "Kid, I heard you look down on my Qingfeng Hall, saying that my Qingfeng Hall's elders aren't even qualified to meet you?"

Yu Ying was also an elder of the Green Wind Hall!

Hearing the name Green Wind Hall, Ye Yuan frowned slightly.

He had never said such a thing, nor had he ever had contact with anyone from Green Wind Hall except the Jiang Manor.

Ye Yuan immediately thought of Jiang Hua, but Jiang Hua was merely a minor steward of the Jiang Manor—how could he possibly move a Black Scale Alchemist to deal with him?

Perhaps the problem lay with Jiang Yuan!

Soon, Ye Yuan had figured out the whole story.

But he couldn't understand why Jiang Yuan would be manipulated by a mere steward.

Seeing Ye Yuan silent, Yu Ying was extremely annoyed and said in a deep voice, "Do you think you can muddle through today by keeping quiet?"

Ye Yuan looked at him and said calmly, "If I say I never said that, would you believe me?"

Yu Ying sneered, "A coward who dares to act but not to own up! With your meager strength, you dare to provoke my Green Wind Hall?"

Ye Yuan looked at Yu Ying and said calmly, "Fine, let's say I did provoke your Green Wind Hall. So what?"

Ye Yuan knew there might be some misunderstanding, but Yu Ying's attitude annoyed him.

The other party insisted he had provoked Green Wind Hall and clearly gave him no chance to explain. So... provoke it was!

A mere Black Scale Alchemist was nothing in his eyes.

Yu Ying laughed loudly, "What an arrogant brat! Do you think winning a few matches on the Purple Xuan Arena makes you something special? Let me tell you, only when you reach the Black Scale Arena will you realize how weak you are!"

Ye Yuan chuckled at this, "The Black Scale Arena? In my eyes, it's nothing special!"

Arrogant!

Too arrogant!

Even the audience below the stage was shocked.

Such domineering words—Ye Yuan really dared to say them!

In fact, since the Gold Arena, Ye Yuan had rarely gone all out in alchemy.

These alchemists all wanted to learn from him, and Ye Yuan didn't hold back, often guiding them in their alchemy.

As a result, the grades he produced were naturally not very high, just barely maintaining above the Divine grade.

Because of this, many thought Ye Yuan's alchemy for high-difficulty pills would no longer be as stunning as before.

Of course, his strength was still the strongest.

For pills of difficulty levels six or seven, these Purple Xuan alchemists could never produce Divine grade.

So at this moment, everyone felt Ye Yuan's boast was a bit too much.

Even Wang Jian couldn't help but frown deeply.

After all, he too was a Black Scale Alchemist.

"Haha... The Black Scale Arena is nothing special? Kid, you really have a big mouth! Since you look down on the Black Scale Arena, how about we make a bet?" Yu Ying laughed loudly.

Ye Yuan looked at him and said calmly, "Whatever you've got, bring it on. I'll take it."

"Good! Let's have an alchemy duel right now. If you lose, get out of Golden Emperor Capital and never set foot in the Dan Chen Pavilion again!" Yu Ying sneered.

"And if you lose?" Ye Yuan asked with a faint smile.

"Me? I can't lose! If I lose, I'll also leave Golden Emperor Capital and never enter the Dan Chen Pavilion again!" Yu Ying said without hesitation.

Wang Jian was greatly alarmed when he heard this.

Both were rare talents who might one day enter the Dan Chen Pavilion and become elders.

Losing either one would be a great loss to the Dan Chen Pavilion.

"No! You are both alchemists of the Dan Chen Pavilion; you must not harm your friendship!" Wang Jian said.

But Ye Yuan said with a faint smile, "Fine, I accept."
