Chapter 275: Asia’s Ultimate Battle
Chapter 275: Asia’s Ultimate Battle
Yagyu Mugen, once hailed as invincible in Asia, barely made it onto the list.
In fact, over the past one or two years, Yagyu Kenei has been undefeated, dominating the Japan Martial Arts Realm, and theoretically should be the first on the Divine Wind List.
But he’s not, mainly because Yagyu Mugen is too terrifying.
His study of swordsmanship has reached the pinnacle, and he hasn’t appeared since he went into seclusion decades ago.
It’s said he’s striving for a higher level!
This time, with Yagyu Kenei being crippled and the Yagyu Clan humiliated in front of the whole of Asia’s elites, Yagyu Mugen must come out to fight.
This battle is called the most pinnacle battle in a hundred years in Asia, with no equal.
Huaxia, the Fifth Team, Wangyue Pavilion, and others received this news and were all extremely shocked.
A large group of geniuses turned pale; Ye Qingtian not only did what they dared not do but accomplished things even those ranked number one couldn’t.
"If Ye Xiaoyao wins this battle! The Huaxia Martial Arts Dao will shock the world, and he will surely ascend the international rankings!"
One was half pleased, half worried.
The young masters of Tianjing were all dismayed; previously, what Ye Qingtian did was unthinkable to them, and now what he does is entirely beyond their imagination.
"Is this kid crazy? He defeated Japan’s number one genius and now is challenging Japan’s top Swordsmanship Master?"
The younger generation of the Ye Family found it all unbelievable.
Ye Shentian glanced at everyone and said, "If Ye Xiaoyao wins this battle, he will stand truly at the peak! At that time, even the Ye Family won’t be able to look up to him! He will carry countless honors!"
"Ah! Who would have thought! This kid would reach such a level! Fools! If we had treated him better back then and not listened to the demonizing words of Long Wuya, our Ye Family would look different now!"
Ye Longkun couldn’t help but sigh.
"Indeed, not to speak of being worshipped by ten thousand tribes. But in Huaxia, who could compare?"
Everyone in the Ye Family regretted it deeply.
"Ah..."
Sighs echoed one after another.
At this moment, a sports car stopped in front of the Ye Family’s ancestral home.
A few young people got out of the car, including Fang Lingfei from Wangyue Pavilion.
Inside the Ye Family hall.
Du Lijun and others warmly welcomed the visitors.
"Elder Du, we came here for one thing only,"
Sheng Yunhan said.
"Sir, please speak!"
"We come to convey the intention of my master, the Pavilion Master of Wangyue Pavilion—if Ye Xiaoyao, Young Master Ye, defeats Japan’s top expert, then all past grievances between Young Master Ye and Wangyue Pavilion will be erased. Furthermore, my master is willing to marry his daughter to Young Master Ye, establishing a marriage agreement between the two."
Sheng Yunhan explained.
"Haha! Good! As long as our Qingtian wins this battle! I agree to the marriage agreement!"
Du Lijun readily agreed.
"Dad, are you agreeing too quickly? Qingtian doesn’t even know about this matter; we need to ask for his opinion!"
Du Wenyuan whispered softly on the side.
"You wait for his consent? Impossible! Qingtian doesn’t think about these matters at all now. We’re arranging the best for him! Now Qingtian is at the pinnacle of Huaxia Martial Arts Dao, and only a girl like the Pavilion Master’s daughter is a match for him!"
Du Lijun laughed.
Sheng Yunhan’s face turned gloomy: "Alright, Mr. Du, I will convey your intentions."
After leaving the Du Family, Sheng Yunhan was full of anger: "Hmph! Just a mere Du Family, do they really think they are a top noble family of Huaxia? Just a mortal family of the Mortal World, and they dare to boast that only my junior sister is worthy of him. On what basis? What arrogance? Ye Xiaoyao isn’t absolutely invincible; what does he count for in the true Martial Arts Dao?"
The others’ faces were equally gloomy.
"Alright, Brother Yunhan, let’s not mention this matter anymore."
Fang Lingfei said coldly.
"I just want to stand up for our senior brother; you should be with him, not with Ye Xiaoyao!"
Sheng Yunhan said grumpily.
Fang Lingfei maintained a cold face: "Enough! Besides, the outcome for Ye Xiaoyao is still unknown!"
...
At Mount Fuji in Japan, people were climbing.
The pinnacle battle was at the mountain top; from the foot, nothing could be seen clearly, so they could only follow to the top.
Yet they dared not get too close.
At this moment, Matsukawa Jinta and Miyata Xiaoqi became the focal point of welcome because they witnessed an earth-shattering battle.
"Crushing defeat? Ye Xiaoyao crushed Yagyu Kenei; I thought their gap was almost negligible!"
"No wonder Ye Xiaoyao dared to challenge Yagyu Mugen; he indeed has some strength!"
"But Yagyu Mugen was once invincible in Asia; who knows what realm his strength has reached now!"
...
Everyone was talking.
No one believed Ye Xiaoyao would win!
Time passed by every minute, but there was no news from the Yagyu Clan.
Even Yagyu Tensei was anxious, sweating profusely, and at a loss.
All of Asia’s martial artists had their eyes on this place, yet without news of Yagyu Mugen, how could they not be anxious?
"Where is Senior Yagyu? The Yagyu Clan won’t let Japan lose face, right?"
Ueshima Tenjin accused.
Yagyu Tensei wanted to refute but had no reason.
He and the high-ranking members of the Yagyu Clan discussed: "We don’t know where the patriarch is right now; how about we discuss it with Ye Xiaoyao and postpone the battle until the patriarch exits seclusion!"
"Yes, that sounds good! You, the Patriarch, discuss it with Ye Xiaoyao, and we’ll endure for a while!"
Others said.
Yagyu Tensei went to the scene to express the Yagyu Clan’s decision to everyone.
While people were discussing, suddenly a voice came from the sky: "No need to look; he’s already here!"
Ye Xiaoyao’s voice?
Everyone was stunned, puzzled as to why Ye Xiaoyao heard them talking from the mountain peak.
Everyone then suddenly understood...
Ye Xiaoyao meant to say that Yagyu Mugen was already here!
The entire Yagyu Clan was excited: "So the patriarch is already here!"
"No, it should be the patriarch is in seclusion at Mount Fuji and just so happened to meet Ye Xiaoyao!"
Yagyu Tensei couldn’t help but say.
And indeed, just as he predicted, Ye Qingtian, upon reaching the summit of Mount Fuji, encountered the seclusion of Yagyu Mugen.
At the summit of Mount Fuji, snow lay thick, and clouds swirled around.
The place boasted five lakes, with a volcanic crater in the center.
Though the volcano hadn’t erupted, a dim firelight shot skyward, and scorching heat could be felt.
Ye Qingtian arrived at the crater to see a person sitting cross-legged, almost immersing himself in the scalding magma.
A sword was thrust into the molten magma, occasionally splashed by bubbling magma, sounding like a dull thunder.
At any moment, the volcano could erupt, and the surging magma would crash out by a hundredfold or thousandfold.
But the person seated at the crater’s edge maintained a mind as firm as rock, unmoving, as if he were one with the place.
Seeing him, Ye Qingtian was slightly astonished.
This person was immensely powerful!
Stronger than anyone he had met before!
