Chapter 4028: Ye Ying Cai Was Defeated
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Ye Ying Cai was not as relaxed as before; his expression was serious.
The crowd could sense the change as well.
The next moment, Ye Ying Cai flew out with his sword toward the partic.i.p.ant from the Feudal Lord Mansions Frozen Mountain Manor.
Ive not heard of this person from the Frozen Mountain Manor.
It doesnt matter. He has to be strong to be selected as a seeded partic.i.p.ant. Previously, I was still wondering why so many unknown figures were selected as seeded partic.i.p.ants. The Profound Jade Mansion must have insider information.
!!
Right. Not only are there the two hidden trump cards from the Divine Morning Mansion and the Underworld Mansion, but theres also this unknown person from the Feudal Lord Mansions Frozen Mountain Manor.
Its not just that, but all the famous young disciples from the Frozen Mountain Manor werent selected to be seeded partic.i.p.ants at all.
Earlier, they said his name is w.a.n.g Xiong, right?
At this time, Ye Ying Cai, who was fast approaching w.a.n.g Xiong, cast his profundities from the law. Along with his Divine Energy, he imbued them into his prominent divine sword. Soon enough, dazzling sword rays shot out.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
The sword rays weaved into a net that surrounded w.a.n.g Xiong in just an instant.
Many people felt anxious on behalf of w.a.n.g Xiong at this moment, but w.a.n.g Xiongs expression remained the same. However, his gaze turned piercing as he tossed his wine gourd up into the air. Light burst forth from the wine gourd, and a huge translucent barrier in the shape of a wine gourd quickly shrouded him. Streaks of gray energy intertwined with mustard yellow energy around the barrier, forming an iron wall.
Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!
The sword rays landed on the gourd-like barrier, creating metallic sounds. However, they did no damage at all.
Ye Ying Cai did not stop. He continued to attack with all his might. However, it did not take long before his expression changed. He discovered that no matter how hard and how long he attacked, he could not break his opponents defense at all.
At this time, a burst of energy swept out from the gourd-like barrier with a flash of light, destroying all the sword rays around it before it swept toward Ye Ying Cai.
Ye Ying Cai continued to attack as he retreated. However, just like before, his attacks did not even leave a dent in his opponents defense. Fortunately, he had speed on his side. Although his opponent was considered fast among those who comprehended the law of earth, his opponents speed was still slower than his.
The tables turned in just a blink of an eye.
Ye Ying Cai who was on the offensive earlier was forced to defend himself since he couldnot break w.a.n.g Xiongs defense.
A small commotion broke out among the crowd. They were shocked by w.a.n.g Xiongs performance.
w.a.n.g Xiongs defense is terrifyingly strong!
He comprehends the law of earth, after all. The law of earth is known for its defense.
Hes really amazing! Ye Ying Cai uses the sword so his offenses and defenses are quite balanced. However, he still cant break w.a.n.g Xiongs defense!
Thats right. The only thing that w.a.n.g Xiong is lacking is speed. Otherwise, Ye Ying Cai wouldve been defeated by now.
w.a.n.g Xiongs defense did not only shock the young disciples, but even a few high-ranking officials seemed surprised.
At this time, someone said loudly to an elder from the Frozen Mountain Manor with a sigh, Elder Qi, I didnt expect the Frozen Mountain Manor to hide such an outstanding prodigy. Did you recruit him for the Seven Mansions Feast?
This question attracted the attention of the people in the surroundings. They turned to look at the people from the Frozen Mountain Manor in unison.
The person who led the entourage from the Frozen Mountain Manor here was an old man with a ruddy face dressed in a cyan robe. He smiled as he calmly said, w.a.n.g Xiong grew up in the Frozen Mountain Manor since he was young. However, not many people know about him since he doesnt usually cultivate in our estate. He only returned recently to partic.i.p.ate in the Seven Mansions Feast. Although youve not heard of him before, you shouldve heard of his father. His father is w.a.n.g An Chong.
Someone exclaimed, w.a.n.g An Chong? Elder Qi, are you talking about w.a.n.g An Chong who ranked in the top ten during the Seven Mansions Feast 10,000 years ago?
During the Seven Mansions Feast 10,000 years ago, one person from the Feudal Lord Mansions Frozen Mountain Manor managed to rank in the top ten, and it was none other than w.a.n.g An Chong.
Thats right, the elder from the Frozen Mountain Manor said and nodded.
With this, people began to gossip again.
So hes w.a.n.g An Chongs son?
Zhen Ping Fan and Ye Chen Feng, who both heard the words of the elder from the Frozen Mountain Manor, exchanged a look and saw the surprise in each others eyes. They both knew w.a.n.g An Chong since they all partic.i.p.ated in the Seven Mansions Feast 10,000 years ago. In fact, w.a.n.g An Chong even defeated them. However, w.a.n.g An Chong was a good man, and he had a very good temper as well. As such, the duo hit it off with w.a.n.g An Chong even though it was their first meeting. The duo considered him a friend at that time. It was unfortunate that not long after the Seven Mansions Feast ended, they received news that w.a.n.g An Chong had died outside of the Feudal Lord Mansion due to an accident. At that time, the duo felt rather sad and lamented that the good died young.
After a while, Duan Ling Tian learned from Zhen Ping Fan that w.a.n.g Xiongs father had once defeated Zhen Ping Fan and Ye Chen Feng during the Seven Mansions Feast 10,000 years ago. He also learned that w.a.n.g An Chong ranked in the top ten of the Seven Mansions Feast at that time, but unfortunately, w.a.n.g An Chong pa.s.sed away not long after.
Duan Ling Tian sighed inwardly. What a coincidence. As it turns out, his father defeated Elder Ye and Elder Zhen 10,000 years ago He looked at the fight in front of him and continued thinking to himself, w.a.n.g Xiong is going to win
Although Ye Ying Cai had the advantage in speed, Duan Ling Tian knew w.a.n.g Xiong was going to win based on w.a.n.g Xiongs strength. w.a.n.g Xiongs attacks seemed unorganized and random; he kept attacking even his attacks seemingly missed. However, Duan Ling Tian could see that the attacks were in fact very well thought out.
Amazing! Ye Chen Feng suddenly exclaimed.
Following that, Duan Ling Tian and the others saw that w.a.n.g Xiongs attack that seemingly missed did not dissipate at all. On the contrary, they suddenly turned into mustard yellow pillars of light. The pillars of light formed a cage around Ye Ying Cai, and the cage was slowly shrinking.
Hes been preparing for this! Ye Ying Cai finally realized something was wrong. He tried to escape but found that he was unable to do so. Clearly, w.a.n.g Xiong had been preparing this since the beginning and made his move once he was confident enough to do so.
Since I cant escape, Ill have to try and break the cage!
Ye Ying Cai attacked the cage with all his might. Under his attack, minute cracks began to form on the st.u.r.dy cage. Upon seeing the cracks, he was overjoyed. However, his expression changed in the next second. While he was attacking the huge cage, w.a.n.g Xiong had already arrived. He was left with no choice but to fly away.
w.a.n.g Xiong continued chasing Ye Ying Cai.
At the same time, the huge cage continued to shrink. There was only so much s.p.a.ce for Ye Ying Cai to move around, and it was shrinking. When he could no longer move around, he was forced to confront w.a.n.g Xiong. He knew he could not break through w.a.n.g Xiongs defense, and he would be severely injured by w.a.n.g Xiongs attack. In the end, he could only say helplessly, I surrender.
Although Ye Ying Cai felt unwilling, he knew nothing could be done about it. If he did not surrender, he would be severely injured, and it would affect his performance later. He knew he had no hope of ranking in the top 30, but he still hoped to rank in the top 40 or 50 so as to not bring shame to the Pure Yang Sect.
Good match, w.a.n.g Xiong said goodnaturedly with a grin, Youre stronger than I imagined. I couldnt tell you were still holding back your strength and speed during your previous fight.
Ye Ying Cai smiled bitterly. During his fight with the Alliance of Benevolence and Justices Hu Chai Yi, he did not intend to dodge or maintain a distance from Hu Chai Yi. He only wanted to fight Hu Chai Yi directly. As such, he did not show his true speed.
This was also the reason w.a.n.g Xiong had said Ye Ying Cai should make his move first, otherwise, Ye Ying Cai might not have had a chance to do so. He had underestimated Ye Ying Cais speed.
Youre very strong. I lost fair and square, Ye Ying Cai said seriously.
With this defeat, Ye Ying Cai was knocked out of the top 30 rankings of the Seven Mansions Feast. However, he did not look discouraged after leaving the battlefield. Instead, his eyes shone as though he was in high spirits. It seemed like he had figured some things out.
Upon seeing this, Ye Chen Feng smiled. He said, Youre still young, and the possibilities in the future are endless. There are many people stronger than you today, but that may not be the case 10,000 years later
Ye Ying Cais eyes shone even brighter upon hearing these words. He was reminded again that his grandmaster did not even rank in the top 20 during the Seven Mansions Feast 10,000 years ago. However, 10,000 years later, his grandmaster had far surpa.s.sed the top 20 partic.i.p.ants from that time!
