Chapter 34: The Boundless Trial

Ye Yuan ignored the shock of others and leisurely walked up to Fei Qingping.

"You said you can't be killed? Do you think you're a cockroach? You're nothing but a dog of Wan Yuan," Ye Yuan said indifferently.

Fei Qingping wanted to say something, but coughed up another mouthful of blood.

One-layer wave doubled the force, two-layer wave quadrupled it.

With Ye Yuan's condensed Yuan power unleashing a fourfold attack, Fei Qingping's Yuan power shield was no match.

That palm strike directly shattered Fei Qingping's Yuan power shield and landed on his chest.

Ye Yuan held nothing back with this palm, directly shattering Fei Qingping's internal organs and severing his heart meridian.

As for Fei Qingping, Ye Yuan had long since sentenced him to death in his heart.

The predecessor had died at Fei Qingping's hands. Having inherited this body, Ye Yuan could naturally feel the resentment of his predecessor before death.

By killing Fei Qingping, Ye Yuan was also avenging his predecessor.

"Cough, cough, cough... Ye Yuan, even as a ghost... I won't let you off!" Fei Qingping struggled to stand but failed.

"Heh, then I'll make sure you can't even become a ghost." With that, Ye Yuan delivered another palm, finishing Fei Qingping off completely.

From start to finish, Fei Qingping never got to use a single move.

In the stands, everyone stared wide-eyed at Ye Yuan in the arena. This perennial bottom-dweller had brought them too many shocks today.

Killing a Yuan Power Layer 5 with Yuan Power Layer 3, perfect-level Flash, and Double-Layer Wave of the Overlapping Wave Heart Palm!

Any one of these feats would be enough to shake the Danwu Academy, yet all three happened to Ye Yuan alone.

"Life-and-death battle, Fei Qingping dies, Ye Yuan wins!" Hu Yan Yong was the first to recover from the shock and announced the result.

Ye Yuan bowed to Hu Yan Yong and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Teacher Hu Yan."

Then, Ye Yuan deeply bowed to the stands and said with a face full of gratitude, "Thank you, senior brothers and sisters, for your kindness. Knowing that I lack Yuan Power Pills for cultivation truly flatters me. I hope you will repay your debts voluntarily, so I won't have to come knocking. That would be unpleasant for everyone."

The crowd in the stands, still in shock, now felt full of resentment and contempt.

Wasn't Ye Yuan's behavior too unsightly?

This was a threat! A blatant threat!

"Heh, this Ye Yuan is interesting. With Ye Hang as his backing, does he really lack things like Yuan Power Pills?" Zuo Bugui couldn't help but laugh at Ye Yuan's mercenary attitude.

"This trip wasn't wasted. Let's go," Long Tang said coolly.

"Hehe, not wasted, not wasted. The Danwu Academy will be fun again."

...

"Ye Yuan, if I don't tear you into pieces, I won't rest!"

Wan Yuan lay on the bed, the whip marks on his back shocking to behold.

The moment Fei Qingping was killed by Ye Yuan, Wan Yuan received the news, and his heart was filled with overwhelming hatred.

Under these circumstances, he still had to undergo the whip punishment, which made his hatred for Ye Yuan beyond measure.

After a hundred lashes, Wan Yuan's skin was torn open, and he fainted on the spot.

At this moment, Wan Yuan's deep family background showed itself.

He took a second-grade top-grade Great Recovery Pill, and his injuries quickly subsided somewhat. With some external medicine, he would recover fully in at most seven or eight days.

However, while the wounds on his body healed easily, the wound in his heart grew larger.

Regardless, Fei Qingping had grown up with him since childhood. In name, they were master and servant, but in truth, they were like brothers.

Wan Yuan never imagined that Ye Yuan's progress would be so rapid, that he could kill Fei Qingping, a Yuan Power Layer 5, at Yuan Power Layer 3.

If he had known this, he would never have let Fei Qingping go to his death.

Just as Wan Yuan was seething with hatred, Liu Ruoshui entered gracefully, still charming and moving.

"Senior Brother Wan, please accept my condolences. Who would have thought that Ye Yuan was such a despicable person, setting a trap for Junior Brother Fei to fall into. His scheming is truly deep!" Liu Ruoshui showed just the right amount of sorrow, making her look pitiful.

Wan Yuan couldn't get up, but he was deeply moved that Liu Ruoshui came to see him at this time.

"Thank you, Junior Sister Liu. Indeed, I was careless. My father has been fighting with Ye Hang for years, and I've been fighting with Ye Yuan for years. I always thought I knew him well, thought he was a waste. I never expected he was hiding so deeply," Wan Yuan said hatefully.

Liu Ruoshui said, "Yes, we all misjudged him. Who would have thought he was playing the fool all along? Probably the poisoning last time thoroughly angered him, so he turned the tables and lured Junior Brother Fei in."

Wan Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "It's either him or me with Ye Yuan, and he's improving too fast. I can't let him grow any further!"

Clearly, through this life-and-death battle, Wan Yuan had deeply felt the pressure.

Ye Yuan's displayed strength was too dazzling. Even as a key talent of the Danwu Academy, Wan Yuan doubted he could cultivate the Overlapping Wave Heart Palm to such a level.

If he gave Ye Yuan more time, he might really become a threat.

With the Double-Layer Wave of the Overlapping Wave Heart Palm and perfect-level Flash, if Ye Yuan was allowed to grow, he would soon be no match.

Of course, Wan Yuan didn't know that Ye Yuan had already killed Chou Ying, an assassin of the same level as him.

In a life-and-death battle, Ye Yuan could already kill him.

Liu Ruoshui fully agreed: "Yes, Ye Yuan is too deep and treacherous. Senior Brother Wan should quickly think of a way to deal with him."

Liu Ruoshui had no choice now. She and Wan Yuan were in the same boat. She had schemed against Ye Yuan, and Ye Yuan wouldn't let her off, so she came to urge Wan Yuan to eliminate Ye Yuan quickly.

"But the academy doesn't allow students to fight privately, or they'll be severely punished," Wan Yuan said with a frown.

In fact, even if Wan Yuan acted personally now, he wasn't sure he could kill Ye Yuan. Perfect-level Flash almost made him invincible.

"Have you forgotten? In a month, it's the Boundless Trial," a sudden voice startled Wan Yuan and Liu Ruoshui.

"It's Senior Brother Su! Sorry, Senior Brother Su, I'm injured and can't bow properly," Wan Yuan said apologetically.

The newcomer was Su Yishan, a top figure in the top ten of the martial rankings!

Liu Ruoshui naturally dared not be negligent; she gracefully rose and curtsied: "Greetings, Senior Brother Su!"

Su Yishan glanced at her indifferently, said nothing, and sat down casually as if in his own home.

The Danwu Academy was a place that revered geniuses and strength. Those with strength could be arrogant without anyone daring to speak; those without strength could only be trampled underfoot.

Ye Yuan was once the perennial bottom-dweller, so no one ever respected him. Now that he had soared, he naturally drew everyone's attention.

"Senior Brother Su, what you said just now... the Boundless Trial? Right, why didn't I think of that?" Wan Yuan got excited, and with a movement, he pulled at his wounds, grimacing in pain.

Liu Ruoshui's eyes also lit up, clearly understanding Su Yishan's meaning.

"Exactly, the Boundless Trial. To deal with Ye Yuan, the Boundless Forest is naturally the best place," Su Yishan said calmly.
