The man in brocade nodded and said, “It wasn’t that first level martial artists killing second level martial artists didn’t happen before. But there absolutely would not be people so neat and tidy like him! Furthermore, his opponent is even a character close to rank 400 on the Earth Carnage Proclamation!”
The Exalt said, “It’s still this boy’s first day entering the Asura Arena, and he actually has such strength already. There’s a possibility that he’s a genius junior groomed by some super holy land. We need to investigate his origins clearly first before making a decision! This matter will be handed to you.”
The man in brocade bowed and said, “Yes!”
…
Leaving the Asura Arena, Ye Yuan rented a residence in the Asura Arena and started to help the Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood absorb the Grayflame Earth Sun Gold.
This Grayflame Earth Sun Gold contained extremely strong powers of goldelement 2 . Using it to refine into a holy artifact could make the martial artist’s attack even stronger.
But Ye Yuan had the Starmoon Sword on hand and was not overly concerned regarding the need for holy artifacts.
Rather, the Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood, using it well would absolutely be a form of enormous assistance. Therefore, he let the Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood absorb the powers of gold element inside the Grayflame Earth Sun Gold without the slightest hesitation.
Just as Ye Yuan was refining the Grayflame Earth Sun Gold, an uproar already utterly broke out at second level.
The news of Tu Gang being finished off by a newcomer spread like wildfire at the second level. This sort of thing truly made all the martial artists’ jaws drop.
Quite a few people were gasping in admiration at this newcomer’s powerful strength. But the vast majority of the people still mocked Tu Gang’s incompetence.
To be able to survive in a cruel environment like the Asura Arena, every person had tremendous self-confidence. Being killed could only show that Tu Gang’s strength was lacking.
Of course, the one who lost the most face was still Lu Licheng.
Tu Gang was his subordinate and also his right-hand hired thug. He did not think that Tu Gangwas actually killed by a second level’s punk 3 . This was smacking his face!
“Investigated properly yet? Just what origins is that punk?” Lu Licheng asked his subordinate with a grim look.
“Yes, we investigated his background. That boy just entered the Asura Arena today and directly got a wipeout at the first level! Tu Gang had long eyed the Asura Shop’s Grayflame Earth Sun Gold, but he did not have sufficient points. This time, he finally managed to amass enough points to go buy it. Didn’t expect that he actually got killed by this newcomer!”

“Humph! Does that punk called Ye Yuan really think that he’s invincible? In this Asura Arena, even a dragon has to coil up!” Lu Licheng said with a cold snort.
In this Asura Arena, there had never been a lack of geniuses.
These Earth Carnage Proclamation’s experts, which one of them was not peerlessly talented, with strength far surpassing those in the same level?
“That punk probably also knew that he got into trouble. After leaving the Asura Shop, he actually chose to enter seclusion and did not enter the second level,” the subordinate said.
“Humph! He may get off today but not tomorrow! Keep a close eye for me! When he arrives at the second level, report to me immediately. I want to let him take a look at this Asura Arena’s brutality!”
“Yes, Your Excellency! It’s just …”
“If you have something, just say it. Don’t hem and haw!”
“There are quite a few rumors out there right now. Especially Lord Zong Ta there. They are all laughing at us.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Licheng’s expression became even more overcast.
That Zong Ta was similarly a heavyweight-class figure in the second level. Regardless whether was it strength or forces, it was not at all inferior to him.
Making such a big fool of himself this time, Zong Ta would naturally grab hold and not let go, and give a good mocking.
“This damn brat, causing me to lose so much face! I must tear him from limb to limb!” Lu Licheng gnashed his teeth in hatred, hating Ye Yuan to the bones.
…
Regarding the things that happened in the second level, Ye Yuan was naturally unaware. Even if he knew, he would not care either.
He set up an array formation to help the Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood absorb the powers of gold element inside the Grayflame Earth Sun Gold, while he himself entered inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda to cultivate.
The likelihood of Ye Yuan making progress in supreme true intent was not too high within a short time. Therefore, Ye Yuan placed the focus of cultivation on the advancement of cultivation realm.
At present, titanic transformations already happened to Ye Yuan’s body. Even if he did not borrow the powers of medicinal pills, his cultivation speed was very fast too.
Ye Yuan was currently comprehending the ‘Bing’ character in the Nine Characters True Word Formula. After violent essence energy went through the Vast Heaven Pagoda’s tempering, it was absorbed by Ye Yuan into his body.
After entering the Heaven Enlightenment Realm, each time Ye Yuan advanced a minor cultivation realm, it required massive amounts of essence energy.
But ever since cultivating the ‘Bing’ character, Ye Yuan’s cultivation speed was several times faster compared to before!
Same as the ‘Lin’ character, the ‘Bing’ character similarly seized the good fortune of heaven and earth. But the effects of the ‘Bing’ character was completely different from the ‘Lin’ character. It was able to make martial artists become more sensitive toward the energy between heaven and earth. Cultivation would also yield twice the results with half the effort!
For such a long time, Ye Yuan discovered that the effect of each word was different through comprehending this Nine Words True Character Formula.
But there was one point, each word contained extremely profound maxims of the Great Dao. It could virtually let Ye Yuan reach the quintessence in an area.
And this ‘Bing’ character could let his cultivation speed increase tremendously.
Ye Yuan believed that if he could cultivate the ‘Bing’ character to an extremely high realm, his cultivation speed would probably be able to crush all of the Divine Realm’s geniuses!
Even using medicinal pills to pile up cultivation realm was probably nothing more than this too.
After advancing to Heaven Enlightenment Realm, Ye Yuan deliberately slowed down cultivation speed and fastidiously comprehended the powers of laws.
Although this way would make his cultivation speed become slow, it could let his comprehension toward Heavenly Dao become even clearer and more comprehensive.
After Heaven Enlightenment Realm, the most important was still comprehending the laws of heaven and earth, increasing concepts cultivation all-round.
If one did not pursue combat power, there naturally was no problem getting help from medicinal pills. But Ye Yuan was re-walking the Martial Path presently. This step was indispensable.
The Upper Three Realms could be said to be even more important than the six major cultivation realms before added up.
Ye Yuan wanted to pursue the pinnacle of the martial path. He would rather walk a bit slower.
But the ‘Bing’ character plus the remolding of the primeval dragon bone made his cultivation speed no worse than any genius in the Divine Realm.
Furthermore, along with the comprehension of the ‘Bing’ character, his cultivation speed would become faster and faster.
A month later, Ye Yuan finally broke through to Third Level Heaven Enlightenment.
When he went to check on the Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood, he discovered that the Grayflame Earth Sun Gold already turned into an ordinary chunk of rock. The power of
gold element inside was already absorbed fully.
Ye Yuan discovered to his joy that the Origin Magnetism Spirit Wood had indeed advanced to Tier 7! With this, the power of the Origin Magnetic Field increased greatly.
“This slaughter points is really good stuff. I’m going to inquire about it later to see if there’s any way to obtain even more slaughter points. Mmm … It’s time to enter the second level.”
Ye Yuan had seen quite a number of good stuff in the Asura Shop’s points area. Even he was quite moved as well.
…
“Congratulations to Ye Yuan, Tan Si, for entering the Asura Arena’s second level!” a melodious voice sounded out in the second level. The entire Asura Arena all knew at once.
Ye Yuan could not help laughing as he said, “Just advancing to the second level. Is there a need to raise such a big rumpus?”
“The second level martial artists’ strength is very formidable. We got to be a little more careful. It’s said that the rank one, Zhan Wushuang, his ranking reached 150th place on the Earth Carnage Proclamation. His strength is very formidable! Still remember that Tu Gang you killed? Although his ranking wasn’t high, the backer behind him is ranked ten plus at the second level. His ranking on the Earth Carnage Proclamation is also as high as around 200!” Tan Si said.
This one month’s time, Ye Yuan was oblivious to the outside world. But Tan Si inquired about the second level’s situation very clearly.
That punch of Ye Yuan’s seemed to have poked the hornet’s nest. He would probably be targeted the moment he came up.
But Ye Yuan said totally unconcernedly, “I hope that he has some common sense and doesn’t come to provoke me like that idiot underling of his.”
The people in the Asura Arena, which one was not stained full of blood on their hands? Regarding killing Tu Gang and his like, Ye Yuan did not have any psychological burden at all.
Tan Si had nothing to say. He could not figure out where the limits of Ye Yuan’s strength lie either.
But very clearly, when killing Tu Gang, Ye Yuan did not use full strength.
Just arriving at the second level, Ye Yuan naturally had to stroll around a bit. But Ye Yuan barely walked two steps when he was stopped by a group of people.
“Boy, was it you who killed Tu Gang?” A burly man at the front questioned.
“What, are you all here to help him get justice?” Ye Yuan said with a smile that wasn’t a smile.
That burly man was originally still sinister looking. But he suddenly lopped an arm around Ye Yuan’s shoulders and said with a big laugh, “Hahaha! Well killed! Tu Gang that fellow, he has rubbed me the wrong way long ago! I’m called Jiao Chong. In the future, we’ll be brothers, so let’s get on more intimate terms!”
Ye Yuan still thought that he was here to find trouble. He did not think that this guy suddenly addressed him with great familiarity, looking not at all distant either.
Ye Yuan jerked lightly, directly bouncing Jiao Chong off and said coolly, “Not everyone is qualified to address me as his brother! Who the hell are you people? State your names.”
Being easily bounced off by Ye Yuan, Jiao Chong could not help being startled inwardly,
He originally thought that Tu Gang getting finished off was because he underestimated the enemy. But just that bit earlier, this boy’s strength could not be taken lightly!
“Heh heh, we’re Lord Zong Ta’s subordinates! You killed Tu Gang, Lu Licheng will definitely not be satisfied until he kills you. In the future, you follow Lord Zong Ta around. With him shielding you, Lu Licheng won’t even dare to let out a fart!” Jiao Chong laughed and said.

After hearing this, Ye Yuan finally figured out this bunch of fellows’ intention for coming.
He did not expect that his actions in the Asura Shop actually made these people give rise to the idea of soliciting him to join their side.
Except, Ye Yuan did not have plans on joining.
“Your meaning is to pull me into a partnership?” Ye Yuan said.
Jiao Chong saw through Ye Yuan’s thoughts too and said with a smile, “I know that your strength is decent. It’s just that the second level’s situation is very different from the first level. Without a major figure shielding you, you’ll die very horribly!”
Ye Yuan said with a laugh, “It’s also not impossible for me to join in, but …”
The moment Jiao Chong heard that there was a chance, he could not help being secretly pleased. This boy’s strength was not weak; likely not beneath his. Settling this errand, Lord Zong Ta would definitely reward greatly.
Was still wondering how proud this boy was, looks like it was also just like that.
As for Ye Yuan wanting to state conditions, it was within reason too. Raising his status a little, this supported the argumentation of the main topic.
“But what?” Jiao Chong asked.
“But it will only work if I become the boss. I don’t have the habit of being sheltered by others. It has always been me covering others,” Ye Yuan looked very calm as he said.
Jiao Chong’s expression changed when he heard that. He even thought that this fellow was quite astute. But he did not expect that Ye Yuan actually did not know how to appreciate favors!
“You become the boss? What a joke! Boy, don’t think that you’re amazing with a bit of strength! Let me tell you, without Boss Zong Ta’s care, you’ll be eaten in this second level until not even any scraps remain! Moreover, have you thought it through? You already offended Lu Licheng terribly by killing Tu Gang. Offending us further, you’ll find it difficult to advance even a step in the second level!” Jiao Chong said with a solemn face.
Ye Yuan gave him a glance and said with a regretful expression, “Is that so? Looks like we can’t reach an agreement. Then there’s nothing good to talk about. Make way, don’t block the path.”
Ye Yuan reached his hand out and pushed aside. But this time, Jiao Chong was prepared and wanted to embarrass Ye Yuan.
But he did not think that the force of Ye Yuan’s light push was actually extremely strong. His body was pushed to one side involuntarily.
Looking at Ye Yuan’s departing back view, Jiao Chong’s expression was ugly to the max.
But Ye Yuan barely walked a few steps when he had his path blocked by another group of people again. Seeing this scene, a delighted expression showed on Jiao Chong’s face.
Lu Licheng actually personally moved out!
“Punk, you finally came up! Your Uncle Lu has waited very long for you!”
Lu Licheng swept a glance at Jiao Chong ferociously. Clearly, he did not think that he came even faster than him.
“A good dog won’t block the path! Get lost!” Ye Yuan said coolly.
“Heh, what an arrogant brat! In this second level, no one dares to talk like this to your Uncle Lu! I think, since you came up to the second level, you’ve already come to understand, right?”
Lu Licheng had an appearance like he got Ye Yuan and did not place Ye Yuan in his sights at all.
Ye Yuan could not help finding it funny when he heard that. This was really any random guy would all feel good about themselves!
“Of course. My awareness has always been very high,” Ye Yuan said with a guileless look.
“Very good! Tomorrow, fighting arena, the two of us have a points gamble fight! If you dare to not agree, I’ll kill you right now!” Lu Licheng said with unparalleled overbearingness.
Ye Yuan’s brows jumped up when he heard that and said, “Points gamble fight?”
The Tan Si by the side moved closer and explained, “Points gamble fight is when both parties each put forth a portion of points and carry out a deathmatch. They must determine life and death in the fighting arena! The victor can obtain the other party’s points.”
The moment Ye Yuan heard, he could not help getting very interested and asked Lu Licheng, “How many
points do you have?”
Ye Yuan showed an excited look, but it made Lu Licheng stunned.
“How many points I have, you don’t need to care! You used 15 points at the Asura Shop. Right now, you only have five points on hand. Let’s bet five points!”
Ye Yuan shook his head when he heard and said, “Too little. I’m lacking points very much right now. How about this, I’ll raise the stakes, bet all of your points!”
The moment Ye Yuan’s words came out, the surroundings could not help being speechless.
“This guy is a moron, right? Just that bit of strength of his wants to bet with Lu Licheng all of his points?”
“Even Zong Ta dare not say to be able to retreat unscathed in a deathmatch with Lu Licheng either. This boy wouldn’t think that by getting a wipeout in the first level, he can also do whatever he wants coming to the second level, right? The second level’s martial artists, any random one that goes to the first level can also get a wipeout!”
“Haha! Maybe he thinks this way! The first level is already so weak, how strong can the second level be? There are idiots every year, this year is especially more.”
Jiao Chong was not far away. Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, he could not help holding his face with his face.
He finally understood why Ye Yuan would say that sort of arrogant and conceited words earlier. Could it be that this boy was completely a fool?
Jiao Chong’s strength was roughly the same as Tu Gang; also around Earth Carnage Proclamation 400th place.
But 400th place and 200th place, the gap in-between this was akin to a heavenly chasm!
Although similarly Heaven Enlightenment Realm, the two people’s strength simply had no way of mentioning in the same breath. If not for so, why would he, an Earth Carnage Proclamation expert, throw himself under a same-realm martial artist?
“Hahaha! Did you all hear it? He wants to raise the stakes and bet all of my points with me! Boy, your Uncle Lu has 35 points. Why don’t you say what you’ll use to make up for it! Don’t tell me that you don’t know how valuable these extra 30 points are!”
