  Because Tang Fan could sense that if his cultivation realm was the same as Yang Wenmiao, he absolutely had the strength to brave it out with him.

  Which was also to say that his comprehensions in sword intent was at least not inferior to Yang Wenmiao.

  Yet, facing Ye Yuan's movement technique with no weakness to exploit, he could not find any way at all.

  He already strove with all his might, but still could not catch up to Ye Yuan's figure.

  In other words, he was fast, but Ye Yuan was even faster than him!

  Tang Fan giving up everything was in order to pursue the word, 'fast.' If he lost to another person in the word, 'fast,' then he really lost.

  "I … I lost!"

  The stubbornness on Tang Fan's face was all gone. What remained was intense unwillingness.

  He cultivated the quick-sword. There had never been anyone faster than his sword before.

  But today, this merely Divine Traversing Realm youth actually utterly suppressed him by a level.

  Furthermore, Tang Fan could sense that Ye Yuan seemed to still have a great deal of strength leftover.

  Under such circ.u.mstances, the sense of defeat was extremely intense.

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Myriad things under the heaven are all Yin and Yang complementing mutually. The extreme of Yang is Yin, the extreme of fast is slow. You pursue speed blindly. Have you ever thought of letting the sword become a little slower? Maybe when you understand the Dao of Fast-Slow, it will make your quick-sword even faster!"

  Tang Fan's entire body trembled. He did not expect that Ye Yuan actually uttered such words.

  Yes, cultivating until now, all of his thoughts were placed on how to make his sword faster. But he had never thought about making his sword a little slower.

  Make quick-sword slow down, was that still called quick-sword?

  However, Yin was born from extreme Yan, slow was born from extreme speed.

  Were the extremes of speed slow or not?

  Tang Fan's comprehension towards quick-sword was extremely profound and knew that the slow Ye Yuan was talking about was not slow in its true sense, but another type of realm!

  That was the realm of viewing the mountain as not a mountain, looking at water as not water!

  If he were able to comprehend this realm, his quick-sword would definitely advance a step further.

  Talking about it was easy, but to comprehend this 'slow' word, was exceedingly difficult.

  But Ye Yuan's word gave him a feeling of dispelling the clouds and seeing the bright moon. It was just like a ray of light in the dark night, pointing the direction for Tang Fan to advance!

  Tang Fan suddenly clasped his hands and said, "Although Brother Ye's age is young, your horizons are exceptionally high! The words just now, this Tang benefited endlessly. This battle, this Tang is utterly convinced by my defeat from the bottom of my heart! Today's grace, this Tang has remembered it!"

  Finished talking, Tang Fan turned right around and went down the platform, vanishing in the crowd.

  When Pei Wenqiang saw this scene, he suddenly recalled what Ye Yuan said before, the words about wanting to enter the Crimson Afterglow Valley.

  Those words sounded very laughable to him at that time. But recalling them now, it seemed like Ye Yuan … really had that hint of chance!

  Up until now, seems like apart from Yang Wenmiao, there was already no one able to beat Ye Yuan.

  But even someone as powerful as Tang Fan was still unable to force out Ye Yuan's true strength!

  If comparing Ye Yuan and Yang Wenmiao, taking Tang Fan as reference in-between, seems like Ye Yuan won more easily.

  Could it be that Ye Yuan's true strength was still above Yang Wenmiao?

  Pei Wenqiang drew a cold breath. Before this, he did not even dare to think about it.

  But now, seemed like this guess was very likely!

  If not for Peng Yan humiliating Xiang Hao like that previously, who knows if Ye Yuan would go up to challenge Yang Wenmiao or not.

  However, this was already not important.

  Ye Yuan's strength would be displayed when he entered the grand finals!

  On Wu Jianqing's side, Peng Yan was long glaring like a ravening tiger already.

  Previously, when he saw Tang Fan go up to challenge Ye Yuan, he was even secretly rejoicing for a bit.

  He felt that with Tang Fan's strength, Ye Yuan definitely could not win. Even if Ye Yuan really could win, he would have tremendous exhaustion too.

  That way, he could completely wreck Ye Yuan if he went up to the arena.

  But now that the match was over, Ye Yuan practically did not have any expenditure at all.

  This kind of strength truly daunted him at the sight of it a little.

  "Peng Yan, give up! This boy's strength is likely not what you're able to deal with! You go and challenge another person. Ensure an advancement spot. Don't go and look for trouble anymore," Wu Jianqing said with a solemn face.

  Peng Yan was extremely unresigned when he heard that, but in the end, he nodded his head helplessly.

  However, when Peng Yan was planning to go up and challenge another person, Xiang Hao ridiculed, "Yo, didn't you talk big yesterday about wanting to teach Ye Yuan a lesson? Why, this direction that you're heading doesn't seem to be Ye Yuan's platform!"

  Xiang Hao kept a constant eye on the happenings at Peng Yan's side. Therefore, Peng Yan's behavior was taken fully into his sights.

  Peng Yan's entire body trembled, his gaze glaring fiercely at Xiang Hao, wishing to swallow Xiang Hao alive.

  Xiang Hao also stared right back. Either way, fighting was forbidden at this competition area. Would Peng Yan dare to kill him?

  Ye Yuan already smacked his face until such an extent. If he did not make use of it properly, how would he dispel the hatred in his heart?

  "Don't get angry. That punk is deliberately triggering you. Calm down, apart from Yang Wenmiao and Ye Yuan, there are still many strong opponents. You have to handle the situation carefully!" Wu Jianqing said.

  Peng Yan s.u.c.k.e.d in a breath deeply, nodded his head, and said, "Rest assured, City Lord. This quota, I'll definitely take it!"

  "Oh wow, really don't have guts to challenge Ye Yuan! Next time, remember, don't have the strength, don't talk so big! So as to avoid smacking your own face! Hahaha!"

  Toward Xiang Hao's actions, Pei Wenqiang felt very liberated too.

  Of course, what made him even more pleased was still Ye Yuan obtaining a quota to advance to the grand finals!

  Just as Ye Yuan said back then, making his face feel boundless honor.

  Chapter 781 - Harsh Situation

  With Peng Yan's strength, taking down an arena lord was naturally something effortless.

  The third day of defending the platform, Peng Yan maintained his position and won 20 matches in a row.

  Although Peng Yan's strength was formidable, it was still not formidable to the extent that no one dared to challenge him.

  Those Seventh Level Boundless Realms, even some Sixth Level Boundless Realms, would all go up and challenge him.

  It was just that Peng Yan never would have dreamed that the first match on the fourth day, Tang Fan actually came up to challenge him immediately, and then Tang Fan blasted him down the platform cleanly.

  Furthermore, through a night's rest and rehabilitation, Tang Fan seemed to be even stronger than yesterday!

  After the fourth day, Yang Wenmiao and Ye Yuan directly obtained advancement quotas because no one dared to challenge them anymore.

  After Tang Fan kicked Peng Yan, likewise, no one dared to go up the stage again. Him obtaining a spot was just a matter of time.

  Based on this, there were only three quotas left.

  Starting from the fifth day, a series of intense scrambling battles unfolded on these three arenas.

  In the end, Peng Yan still relied on his powerful strength and obtained a quota.

  The fifth quota was seized by another Ye City's Seventh
Level Boundless genius in the end.

  But the sixth quota was what everyone did not expect. Through three to four days of fighting, Mu Yun actually completed 100 consecutive wins, obtaining the final quota!

  This made Pei Wenqiang incredibly thrilled.

  These six spots, Ancient Opulence City actually occupied two. This was what he did not expect at all before coming.

  He brought six people, and not a single one was at the Seventh Level Boundless Realm. This kind of strength was at the very most only able to rank in the mid-range position. Even striving for a quota was not possible.

  After all, this kind of selection competition, there were too many experts.

  But who knew that not only did his people obtain a quota, it was two!

  This kind of unexpected harvest made him feel that happiness came too sudden.

  After Mu Yun obtained the quota, Pei Wenqiang even ran in front of Wu Jianqing and showed off for a bit. Looking at that horse face of Wu Jianqing, Pei Wenqiang was incomparably exhilarated in his heart.

  Following the six quotas being decided, Ye City's division competition zone's competition also finally wrapped up satisfactorily.

  The next day, City Lord Yang Sen summoned the six people who advanced this time.

  The moment Yang Sen saw Pei Wenqiang, he could not help laughing loudly as he patted his shoulders and said, "Oh, Wenqiang, I really couldn't tell that you actually have the potential to be a good judge of talent! Your Ancient Opulence City can really be said to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat this time!"

  Pei Wenqiang smiled and said, "Your Excellency is too kind. Haha, just luck, just luck!"

  Yang Sen waved his hand and said, "Don't need to be modest, Wenqiang! Ye City's competition's news this time, I've already notified the Pei Family. The Pei Family is very pleased with your performance this time. It's said that they will bestow a Flying Crane Profound Torrential Pill to you!"

  The Flying Crane Profound Torrential Pill was a medicinal pill to help Heaven Enlightenment Realm martial artists break through cultivation realms. It was very valuable in the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land. Without a certain status, there was no way to get it at all.

  His own status was not very high, but Pei Wenqiang had an elder brother who was a holy son. Otherwise, he would also not be assigned outside to be a city lord.

  This Flying Crane Profound Torrential Pill was an extremely valuable medicinal pill even to Pei Kun, let alone Pei Wenqiang.

  When Pei Wenqiang heard this, he said agitatedly, "Are your words true, milord?"

  Yang Sen nodded and said, "If not for definite news, how would I dare to open my mouth easily? Most likely, the Pei Family's envoy is already on their way at present. You are also aware that the holy land has numerous factions. The contest for these quotas is naturally very intense too. You were able to seize two spots all at once; it naturally helps to gain a great deal of face for the Pei Family. Other than the Flying Crane Profound Torrential Pill, the merit points awarded this time definitely won't meager too."

  Pei Wenqiang was overjoyed as he said, "Many thanks for Your Excellency's news!"

  Yang Sen waved his hand and said, "Thanking me for what? I'm only just informing you a little in advance. Obtaining this reward is you yourself discovering talents with discerning eyes; i has nothing to do with me."

  By the side, Wu Jianqing's face was already livid, green with envy for some time inwardly.

  Wu Jianqing wished to obtain a Flying Crane Profound Torrential Pill even in his dreams. But this medicinal pill was in too high demand. The family clan could not possibly award it at all.

  He didn't expect that Pei Wenqiang this guy gained a new lease on life and actually obtained the Pei Family's bestowal!

  With Yang Sen's status, saying in front of so many people, this matter was basically set in stone already. How could he, Wu Jianqing, not be envious?

  No idea what bullshit luck Pei Wenqiang this guy had, to actually be able to find a freak like Ye Yuan.

  After finishing the small talk with Pei Wenqiang, Yang Sen said to the six people who advanced with a stern countenance, "Since the six of you have already stood out from the masses, as Ye City's division competition zone's organizer, I naturally have to congratulate all of you. But what I want to warn everybody is that now is still not the time to be happy. Because the cruelty of the grand finals will surpass your imaginations! I've already received some news; the genius martial artists who entered the grand finals this time, just the Ninth Level Boundless and above have 20 over people! While among the six of you, the highest is merely Eighth Level Boundless. Of course, cultivation realm doesn't completely represent strength. But you guys should be clearer than me that to be able to reach Ninth Level Boundless Realm at this age, not one of them is a mediocre person!"

  Hearing Yang Sen's words, everyone's joy from having just advanced was immediately all gone.

  Apart from Ye Yuan, the others all had very solemn expressions. Clearly, they sensed tremendous pressure. Yang Wenmiao was no exception either.

  Actually, these people had long had mental preparations regarding the grand finals' brutality.

  But they absolutely never expected that the Quasi-Holy Son selection competition this time would actually be brutal to such a degree!

  A total of 60 people, there were actually 20 over Ninth Level Boundless Realms. What kind of concept was this?

  Furthermore, who could guarantee that those Eighth Level Boundless, Seventh Level Boundless, even among the Sixth Level Boundless, and Fifth Level Boundless Realms did not have freaks like Tang Fan and Ye Yuan?

  It was not that no one dares not to guarantee this, but definitely there will be those freaks!

  The allure of entering the Crimson Afterglow Valley was too great. Even Ye Yuan, a former Alchemy Emperor powerhouse, was moved, let alone the others?

  Therefore, this time, those young geniuses who were not willing to reveal their edge all popped out all at once.

  According to Yang Sen's way of saying things, dark horses like Ye Yuan and Tang Fan were seen everywhere this time.

  Many young geniuses who were unknown before this all emerged this time.

  Four or five people even poured out all at once in some division competition zones. Those geniuses who were originally viewed favorably were instead eliminated one by one!

  This kind of line-up seriously made them unable to be happy.

  Since they entered the grand finals, no a single person did not wish to get a good ranking.

  In order to attract these geniuses to enter the holy land, the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land also poured in extensive capital this time, bleeding their reserve. The top ten young geniuses would obtain incomparably generous cultivation resources.

  Under this kind of temptation, few would be unmoved.

  These young geniuses' strengths were all at roughly the same rank. The final battle situation would surely be very intense, even to the extent of brutal.

  Under such circ.u.mstances, wanting to enter the top ten was simply even harder than ascending to the heavens.

  Yang Sen stated the risks and benefits of the grand finals' harshness and swept across the six people's faces, but he discovered that Ye Yuan was very composed from start to finish. He could not resist asking and said, "Ye Yuan, looking at you, seems like you're not very worried?"

  Chapter 782 - Crimson Afterglow Holy Land

  Ye Yuan did not think that Yang Sen would speak up and ask him. He replied with a smile, "Rather than worry about this, may as well make the best use of this one month's time to cultivate a bit more. Everyone's strength is roughly similar. Every increase in strength is naturally an increase in chances of victory."

  Yang Sen was stunned. He did not expect that Ye Yuan would actually say such words.

  Thinking carefully, it seemed like it really was that case.

  If the strength difference was too great, a month's time naturally did not have much use.

  But these 60 people's stre
ngth clearly did not have a great disparity. Whoever won or lost, either was possible.

  Under such circ.u.mstances, a month's time, one could do many things.

  Ye Yuan's words made the other five people's state of mind relax considerably. But the sense of urgency rose.

  If not for Yang Sen being present, they wished that they could go and enter a retreat right away.

  Yang Sen looked at Ye Yuan rather surprisedly. This youth seemed to have a level-headedness that was disproportionate to his age.

  "Ye Yuan, I saw that when you were defending the arena previously, seemed like you still had some strength to spare. I wonder if you have any goal entering the grand finals this time?" Yang Sen asked.

  Ye Yuan smiled but did not speak. But Pei Wenqiang interjected when he saw the situation, "I know a little about this. Ye Yuan's goal is that spot to enter the Crimson Afterglow Valley!"

  "Hiss …"

  Everyone all s.u.c.k.e.d in a cold breath. Wasn't this goal a little too big?

  Hearing it, it just sounded somewhat inconceivable.

  But Yang Sen shook his head and laughed in spite of himself as he said, "Young people having strength, having goals, are a good thing. But reaching beyond one's grasp, one will probably return in disappointment in the end!"

  Ye Yuan said with a smile, "Your Excellency, if there's nothing else, I'll go back first to cultivate."

  Finished talking, Ye Yuan ignored the dumbfounded looking people, turned right around, and went out.

  "Stop right there! You actually dare to be disrespectful toward Lord Yang! I think that you're tired of living!" Wu Jianqing finally seized the opportunity to explode.

  Ye Yuan said in surprise, "Our Lord Yang says that I'm reaching beyond my reach, so I'm cultivating a while more in a down-to-earth manner. How did it become disrespect towards Lord Yang?"

  "You! Twisting logic! With the likes of your bit of strength and you also dare to dream about entering the Crimson Afterglow Valley, simply daydreaming in broad daylight!"

  "Heh, whatever you say. This little lord is still in a hurry to cultivate, see you later!"

  Ye Yuan really left the City Lord Manor after he finished talking.
