Unrivaled Medicine God

by <unknown>

  Didn't that mean that Tian Yu was very much looking forward to fighting with that mysterious No. 52?

  But, was this possible?

  Everyone was clear on the strength of these sect disciples long ago. Those who could have emerged would have already emerged. Why would they wait until today?

  Could this No. 52 be new?

  With Tang Yu-er's strength and status, her eyes would forever be fixated on the position of elite disciple only. As for whatever disciple that was new to the sect, she could not even be bothered to follow. She naturally did not know Ye Yuan and Long Tang.

  Except, how could newcomer disciples possibly be Tian Yu's match?

  If a new half-step Crystal Formation Realm expert came, it was impossible for her to not hear anything about it, right?

  Tian Yu did not elaborate on his words, and Tang Yu-er remained puzzled.

  "You know this No. 52's identity? Who is he?" Tang Yu could not help asking curiously.

  "He's called Ye Yuan. As for what kind of person he is, I'm not sure either. But I believe that you and I will know very soon. To be able to defeat Wang Dong instantly, he might be a formidable foe to us!" Tian Yu said coolly.

  Tang Yu-er's pretty eye became intent as she revealed an astonishment look.

  She had also suspected previously whether or not this No. 52 was lucky and bumped into rookies.

  Tang Yu-er knew Wang Dong's name as well. His strength was exceptional among the Eighth Level Spirit Condensation Realms. To be able to instantly kill Wang Dong, he most likely had the strength to clash with her!

  "Alright. Go back and rest well. Adjust your condition to its peak! This grand competition will be more interesting than any others in the past!" Tian Yu said to Tang Yu-er with a faint smile.

  . . . . . .

  At the same time, many people were speculating who this No. 52 was. Some who were acquainted with Wang Dong went up to him.

  "Wang Dong, I remember that you're No. 49? Then was your opponent No. 52? Who is this No. 52, to actually be the first person to win for two consecutive rounds?"

  Wang Dong had a gloomy face as he said, "How would I know who he is? Either way, his age is not old; younger than both you and I. Should be a newcomer. But his strength is absolutely formidable! In my opinion . . . he can at least enter the top 10!"

  That person had an incredulous look when he heard that and said, "Are you joking?! Who can shake the position of the top 10? You aren't finding an excuse for your loss, right?"

  Wang Dong snickered coldly when he heard that and said, "Watch if you don't believe! Putting aside other things, just based solely on that ultimate move of his, to instantly transform into nine silhouettes and unleash nine sword beams, each stronger than the other! Just based on that one move, he can also enter the top 10!"

  That disciple was greatly startled when he heard that and said, "No way? So incredible? Can it be a newly emerged half-step Crystal Formation Realm expert?"

  Wang Dong shook his head and said, "That's a no. He's only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm."

  That disciple burst into laughter when he heard that and said, "Wang Dong, did he bash your brain? Did you lose to a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm? And you even say that he can enter the top 10?"

  The corner of Wang Dong's mouth twitched, but he said disdainfully, "Didn't you lose in the second round too? Since you've nothing to do anyway, follow me to watch that No.52 compete and you'll see."

  Having said that, that disciple became even more curiously and naturally would not reject. Hence, he went to find Ye Yuan's competition platform together with Wang Dong.

  . . . . . .

  The third round was 50 going to 25. If one passed the third round, it would also mean that they could enter the top 25 rankings!

  Although there were some who were occasionally rather lucky earlier and encountered weaker opponents, after two rounds of filtering, the disciples who entered the third round were all rather powerful.

  Even if there were those with weaker strength who were fortunate enough to pass two rounds, the possibility of passing the third round again would be virtually nil.

  This third round was actually a dividing line. To be able to pass the third round meant that they belonged to the top echelon among the core disciples.

  While other disciples were no less outstanding, compared to the disciples who passed the third round, the disparity became very obvious.

  After two rounds of filtering, many disciples who were defeated no longer needed to take part in matches anymore. Quite a number of them gathered at some popular platforms to spectate the upcoming matches.

  And currently, the platform where Ye Yuan was about to start his match was already surrounded by many disciples. This made him somewhat baffled.

  Ye Yuan thought that the most popular platform should be Tian Yu's. Why were there so many people gathered over on his side?

  Could it be that his opponent was very popular, that was why it attracted everyone to watch?

  Speaking of which, Ye Yuan's opponent this round was No. 14. It should be an extremely powerful foe.

  "Hey, did you guys hear? This No.52 is that newcomer disciple who snatched Ceng Yu's points right after entering the sect. He's called Ye Yuan!"

  "En, I heard it too! I really did not think that a Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm could actually pass two consecutive round! Furthermore, be the first to win! This fellow is truly perverse!"

  "Tch, still Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm? He was Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm long ago! Don't you know yet? After he snatched Ceng Yu's points, he went to the A-grade cultivation rooms to enter seclusion for five days. After he exited, he was Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm!"

  "What? There's really such a thing? Incredible! Truly incredible! I didn't think that such a monster actually entered the sect this time! How are we going to survive? But, even if he broke through to the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm, how was it possible to clear two rounds consecutively with such strength? Moreover, be the first to win?"

  "Hehe, weren't we competing earlier? Now, I want to take a good look at what areas this No.52 surpasses others in! Do you know who his opponent this time is?"

  "En? Who?"

  "This opponent, No. 14, is the number one figure in the Earth Barracks, Zhang Jing!"

  Chapter 261. Purple Yang Clear Howl! |

  Do not look at how Ceng Cheng and Qiu Peng caused huge scenes normally. Zhang Jing sat firmly on the top seat of the Earth Barracks the whole time.

  Zhang Jing was also the disciple who arranged for Ye Yuan to stay in the Earth Barracks on the day he entered the sect.

  When Ye Yuan saw Zhang Jing on the platform, he was involuntarily dumbstruck. Zhang Jing was similarly stunned when he saw Ye Yuan.

  The two stared at each other speechlessly.

  After a while, Zhang Jing looked at Ye Yuan with a bitter smile and said, "I really didn't expect the mysterious No. 52 to actually be you!"

  "En? What do you mean? When did I become the mysterious No. 52?" Ye Yuan felt baffled after listening to Zhang Jing's words.

  Zhang Jing was stupefied and said, "You've already become everyone's focal point after two rounds of competition. Don't you know that? Look at all those seniors and juniors below the platform."

  "Ugh, I thought that they came here for Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang." Ye Yuan said helplessly.

  "Why would they? In the past competitions, it was always Platform No. 1 which won first. But you won the previous two rounds at virtually the first moment. It was tough for others to not pay attention!" Zhang Jing sighed admiringly.

  Zhang Jing never imagined that this mysterious No. 52 was actually Ye Yuan.

  Furthermore, Ye Yuan was only at the Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm currently. To actually be able to win with ease in the previous two rounds, how great was his strength?

  Even though he was five minor realms higher than Ye Yuan, Zhang Jing unknowingl
y became rather guilty.

  Thinking back to how he still felt superior in front of Ye Yuan, it was ludicrous thinking about it now.

  However, Zhang Jing was also a magnanimous person. He felt at ease very quickly.

  Recalling Senior Apprentice Brother Mo's actions back then, he actually noticed that there were some abnormalities.

  Most likely, Senior Apprentice Brother Mo already knew at that time that Ye Yuan's strength had possibly already reached the level of Heaven Barracks, right? Otherwise, why would he hesitate on where to place Ye Yuan?

  However, didn't that mean that when Ye Yuan was at the Second Level Spirit Condensation Realm, he was already not his match?

  This . . . was really something which made people miserable!

  Listening to Zhang Jing, Ye Yuan came to a realization. "So that's the case! I thought that Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang has good relations with people and that they came to watch Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang."

  "Haha, Junior Apprentice Brother Ye is teasing me. How could I have such capabilities? Actually, in past competitions, the place which had the most people gathering around was Junior Apprentice Sister Tang Yu-er's platform. But the people below our platform this time is likely going to surpass hers," Zhang Jing also said smilingly.

  Within sects, the ones who attained first were the masters. Although Zhang Jing was older than Tang Yu-er, his strength was much poorer. Hence, he also addressed the other party as senior apprentice sister.

  Ye Yuan chuckled when he heard that and said, "I hope that Senior Apprentice Sister Tang Yu-er doesn't blame me for snatching her limelight."

  While talking, the third round officially began.

  After both parties saluted, Zhang Jing said, "When I saw Junior Apprentice Brother Ye back then, I really misjudged. To think that junior's strength was actually so formidable! However, I'll do my best later. I hope that Junior Apprentice Brother Ye won't be stingy with guidance!"

  Ye Yuan naturally hoped strongly for this. He smiled and said, "I dare not. This Younger Brother will obviously go all out as well!"

  "Please!"

  "Please!"

  The pair each gestured to begin as their auras rose abruptly!

  "Purple Yang Clear Howl!"

  The sword in Zhang Jing's hand shuddered violently and gave off waves of low cries. Countless azure sword qi extended out, heading straight for Ye Yuan!

  Right away, it was an extremely fierce and sharp move!

  "No way? Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang unleashed the Purple Yang Clear Howl right away. Isn't this too ludicrous?"

  "Such a fierce and sharp sword qi, has Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang already trained the Purple Yang Clear Howl to the Great Circle Realm? The Purple Yang Clear Howl is an extremely formidable move in the second layer of the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art. Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang actually trained it to the Great Circle Realm already without anyone knowing it. Truly worthy of being the top seat of the Earth Barracks!"

  "Just based on this move, Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang might squeeze into the top 10 and become a Heaven Barracks disciple!"

  "Hehe, that's really hard to say. That bunch of sickos in the Heaven Barracks can't be measured using common sense. Senior Apprentice Brother Zhang is improving, but will they remain stagnant?"

  "Now that you mentioned it, you're right! However, can this No. 52 receive this Purple Yang Clear Howl?"

  "This . . . Probably going to be hard? No. 52 is incredible, but both you and I know the power of this Great Circle Realm Purple Yang Clear Howl. Most likely, even that perverse bunch in the top 10 would choke on this!"

  This was Ye Yuan's first time facing an Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art sword move face on!

  Him directly comprehending the sword intent on the Nine Heavens Road was equivalent to having a thorough understanding of this sword art. He did not need to exchange for the cultivation method in the sect.

  In reality, the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art was a set of cultivation methods. It encompassed many martial techniques in it!

  The Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art that the Tranquil Cloud Sect had comprised of a total of four layers. Each layer corresponded to a major realm!

  And several sets of sword martial skills were included in each layer of the cultivation method.

  This Purple Yang Clear Howl was an extremely powerful martial technique in the second layer. The training difficulty was high, and the power was incredible!

  To have been able to train this martial technique to the Great Circle Realm showed Zhang Jing's remarkable strength.

  Except, it was still somewhat lacking to use this move to deal with Ye Yuan.

  Although Ye Yuan's realm was way lower than Zhang Jing's, when talking about comprehension towards the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent, Zhang Jing could not even catch up to Ye Yuan by whipping his horse!

  That final sword on the Nine Heavens Road was the full comprehension You Wuya had towards the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Intent!

  Ye Yuan fully comprehending that sword meant that he already stood on the same heights as You Wuya in terms of understanding of this sword intent!

  This Purple Yang Clear Howl move from Zhang Jing was at most the standards of the first 10% of the last 333 steps on the Nine Heavens Road. The difference with the final sword move was too far.

  Of course, Zhang Jing's advantage was his cultivation realm!

  Unleashing a sword move with peak Ninth Level Spirit Condensation Realm strength, even if it were a trash-like move, the damage to a Fourth Level Spirit Condensation Realm would also be enormous; let alone the fact that the Azure Dipper Purple Yang Sword Art itself was extremely powerful!

  Now . . . it was only to see Ye Yuan spinning around and sweep his sword horizontally!

  What was released was not a single sword beam, but countless beams of sword qi!

  In the air, beams of azure sword qi clashed with faint yellow sword qi. After each streak of sword qi collided, it would turn into nothing!

  After several breaths, not a single one of the countless sword qi released by Zhang Jing actually bypassed Ye Yuan's sword qi to reach Ye Yuan!

  "My . . . My God! H-How did he do it? No. 52 only unleashed one sword strike! The Purple Yang Clear Howl was broken just like this?"

  "Too inconceivable! Did you see that? That sword strike from No. 52 was not any even a technique. It was just a simple slash! But how can that sword strike possibly produce so much sword qi?"

  "Ah! I can't take it anymore! I can't take it anymore! This No. 52 is too perverse! The Purple Yang Clear Howl is ranked third among all the moves in the second layer, and it was actually broken by him so easily!"

  Chapter 262. Empty Alleys |

  "Purple Lighting Azure Frost!"

  On Platform No. 1, Tian Yu gave a low cry, and his opponent was defeated.

  The third round, the announcement of No. 1 winning was finally the first to sound out. Except, there was already nobody paying heed to such things.

  Even Tian Yu himself was not in the mood to listen to this voice. He walked down the platform directly and headed towards the platform where Ye Yuan and Zhang Jing were facing off.

  "Phoenix Dance Nine Heavens!"

  On Platform No. 2, Tang Yu-er similarly cried out, the red silk in her hands bounded up her foe in a peculiar manner, beating him down easily.

  The same thing happened to many disciples ranked in the top 10. They all wanted to rush to watch the platform that No. 52 was at. Just what kind of god was this mysterious No. 52?!

  . . . . . .

  At this very moment, the competition for elite disciples also reached the white-hot stage!

  The number of elite disciples was forever fixed like core disciples. Except, there were only 20 elite disciples at all times!

  These 20 people could be said to be the future hope of the sect!

  The competition for elite disciples was different from core disciples. Every grand competition, they all
fought in revolving battles!

  20 people, that was also to say that each person had to experience 19 revolving battles!

  Whoever won the most matches at the end would be rank one. And the people in the bottom three rankings had to undergo a final match with the top three core disciples to determine who stays and who leaves.

  On Platform No. 3, a youth dressed in martial outfit unleashed a flurry of fist silhouettes, beating his opponent until he could only ward off the blows and without the slightest strength to retaliate!

  Only to see him withdraw his fist momentum and give a low cry, "Boundless Tyrant Fist!"

  Only to hear a boom, his opponent was sent flying out of the platform.

  "Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu, your fist art is really becoming more and more powerful! It's simply flawless!" the youth who was defeated grumbled.

  When he was on the platform earlier, that Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu was incomparably tyrannical with an aura that disdained all life.

  But currently, Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu was meek like the boy-next-door.

  The before and after was huge. It was hard for others to believe that they were the same person.

  This Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu was called Ti Wujiu, the well-deserved leader of the elite disciples!

  This person was normally very easy to get along with. He did not put on any airs of a senior. Disciples who did not know him simply could not imagine that he was the leader of the elite disciples.

  But once the battle began, it was like Ti Wujiu was possessed by the god of war, going berserk on his opponent until they could not catch their breath.

  From the start of the grand competition until now, more than half of the matches for the elite disciples had passed. Ti Wujiu was number one in terms of battle results with complete victories.

  In reality, this was like a common occurrence to him.

  The one who fought with him just now was called Cheng Wu. His strength was somewhat lacking among the elite disciples. Now that he lost battles repeatedly today, barring no accidents, he should be one of the bottom three placings.

  Seeing Cheng Wu grumbled, Ti Wujiu smiled warmly and said, "How can there be a flawless fist art? It's just that you didn't find them. If it was Senior Apprentice Brother Mo or Senior Apprentice Brother Xin, this fist art of mine would be full of flaws."
