Chapter 222: Is Everyone Here? I’m Taking on All of You
Ren Shaoqing walked in front, followed by others including Ye Shentian.
"Young Master Ren, Young Master Ye..."
Upon seeing the five young masters, everyone greeted them.
"Young Master Ye, have you broken through to the Half-Step Martial Emperor?"
"Young Master Long, you too?"
...
Exclamations of astonishment echoed throughout the Crown Prince Club.
The young masters looked enviously at Ye Shentian, Long Kuangqiong, and others.
These people used to be figures they admired, but now, after a month of closed-door training in the Hidden Tower, they have transformed and reached realms beyond imagination.
Ye Shentian and the others nodded, their faces cold and proud.
In the past, figures like Long Aotian might have posed a threat, but upon returning, these people were not even worth their notice.
"Two Half-Step Martial Emperors! Given time, they might reach Martial Emperor in a few decades! Truly terrifying!"
The Martial Emperor is a realm of imagination. While they yearn for the Martial King Realm, these people are already aiming for the Martial Emperor Realm.
"What about Young Master Ren?"
Eventually, all eyes were on Ren Shaoqing, even Shen Huamo’s luminous gaze focused on him.
"Mm."
Ren Shaoqing lightly nodded.
Beside him, Long Kuangqiong understood and immediately said, "Currently, Young Master Ren has reached the Extraordinary Realm. During this Hidden Tower trial, he broke through two realms and directly reached the Martial Emperor Realm!"
"Hiss!"
Sounds of gasps echoed throughout the venue.
"Martial Emperor" is the supreme realm. If a family had one, it could protect them for a hundred years.
"Back then, Mid Heaven Ye Fengtian also broke through to the Martial Emperor from the Hidden Tower. Now Young Master Ren is the same! He’s definitely the next of the Five Dragons of Huaxia!"
"Simply terrifying! The Ren Family is about to rise! The rankings of the four great noble families might change!"
...
Discussions rose continuously in the venue.
Even Shen Huamo showed a hint of satisfaction, finding Ren Shaoqing barely worthy of notice now.
"I must also tell you, Young Master Ren has condensed a Super-grade Initial-tier Martial Seal!"
Long Kuangqiong dropped another explosive piece of news.
For many, Martial Seals were unfamiliar, but some knew what it meant.
For instance, martial artists like Long Aotian.
Shen Huamo also understood the significance of a Super-grade Martial Seal.
"What? It’s already a Super-grade Martial Seal? That’s too terrifying!"
"The former Great Demon Evil Buddha only had a Mortal Martial Seal! Even later, only a Mortal Middle-tier Martial Seal!"
Everyone shivered, feeling as though they were going crazy.
The air in the room seemed to be sucked out, everyone breathing rapidly, almost suffocating.
They realized that from now on, the Ren Family would soar and might even stand on equal footing with the Ye Family.
Shen Huamo couldn’t help but look at Ren Shaoqing a few more times, his face revealing a hint of shock.
"Hey, is everyone here?"
At this moment, a voice sounded.
"How did we forget about him!"
Only then did everyone remember Ye Qingtian.
"What’s going on? Huamo, did you ask us to come here directly for something?"
Ren Shaoqing, changing his aloof demeanor, asked Shen Huamo with a bright smile.
Then, they informed the five about what had happened.
"Hmm? Is that you?"
"You’re Ye Qingtian?"
Ren Shaowu, Hua Chenfeng, and others were startled.
When Ye Shentian heard it was Ye Qingtian, he was as surprised as everyone else and couldn’t help but scrutinize him.
"Are you the one wanting to marry Junqing? Did you ask me?"
A booming voice sounded, with Long Kuangqiong glaring menacingly at Ye Qingtian.
"Fatso, stay away from me!"
Ye Qingtian snorted coldly.
"You..."
Long Kuangqiong was about to get angry but was stopped by Ren Shaoqing.
"Ye Qingtian? I’ve heard of your great name! Seeing you today, your reputation does precede you! But I heard you seem to have insulted my fiancée?"
Ren Shaoqing inquired.
"Your fiancée? Your goddess?"
Ye Qingtian chuckled.
Ren Shaoqing nodded, "Of course, Huamo is my goddess. Moreover, she’s the goddess of most of Tianjing!"
"Fine, but don’t use your low taste to judge mine, okay?"
With that, the entire place exploded like boiling water.
He actually called Ren Shaoqing’s taste poor?
Now everyone suspected Ye Qingtian might be crazy!
Even Ren Shaoqing couldn’t help but laugh, "As expected of the son of Senior Ye Kuangfeng, indeed arrogant!"
"What’s this? He even said he wanted to challenge all the young generation of Tianjing!"
Long Aotian laughed, looking at Ye Qingtian like he was an idiot.
"Huh? Challenge all of Tianjing’s young generation?"
Ren Shaoqing was astonished.
They always played wildly, but Ye Qingtian’s arrogance was beyond their reach.
He didn’t even dare claim to challenge all of Tianjing’s young generation.
Ye Qingtian glanced over everyone, "Everyone’s here, right? Who wants to get beaten first? Or do you all want to come at once?"
"Ye Qingtian, you’re too arrogant. Do you really think no one dares to take you on?"
Jing Weilong was the first to charge forward.
"Smack!"
But Ye Qingtian slapped Jing Weilong across the face, causing him to fly sideways with the force as though hit by a car.
The entire scene fell into a dead silence.
This was unexpected for Ren Shaoqing and the others who thought Ye Qingtian wouldn’t dare make a move.
"Ye Qingtian, you’re seeking death!"
Mi Xingyun from the Mi Family struck fiercely, sweeping in with a violent qi force.
A Martial Form expert.
"Bang!"
Yet Ye Qingtian punched him away, leaving Mi Xingyun wailing on the ground, and in moments fell silent.
Once again, the venue grew even quieter!
"A martial artist! Ye Qingtian is actually a martial artist!"
Qi Zhehan exclaimed in shock.
No one expected Ye Qingtian to be a martial artist.
"No wonder Eldest Young Master Ye is so arrogant, he’s a martial artist!"
The crowd was enlightened, quickly understanding.
"But how could he know the power of Tianjing’s young masters—the renowned ones like Young Master Ren have reached Martial Emperor Realm. Without being at the Five Dragon Level of Huaxia, how could anyone dare provoke them?"
Long Aotian was furious; Mi Xingyun was under his wing.
Being struck by Ye Qingtian in front of so many people was highly embarrassing.
"Ye Qingtian, you dared strike, huh? Very well, you’ll pay for this!"
Long Aotian unleashed his cultivation, roaring like a furious dragon.
Half-Step Martial King Cultivation!
Long Aotian, known in Tianjing’s Young Master List, had undeniably formidable strength.
Long Aotian delivered a mighty punch, causing a howling sound.
"Courting death!"
Ye Qingtian swung his hand out, sending Long Aotian flying.
Long Aotian smashed through countless tables and chairs before hitting the ground, motionless.
"He’s dead! Young Master Long, Long Aotian, is dead!"
Someone checked and found Long Aotian was no longer breathing, already deceased.
"He’s a Martial King!"
Faces fell on Ye Shentian and others.
Long Aotian had been killed in front of them.
"You dared kill Young Master Long! You’re finished, completely finished! This is a big deal now!"
Young Master Long Aotian was from one of Huaxia’s four great noble families; his death changed the nature of the situation.
