Chapter 118 - 115: Three Moves
Ye Xuan’s words took Murong Yun and Feng Yuan by surprise, clearly unable to comprehend.
"Ye Xuan, this Elder Shen Hong is a genuine Second Grade Martial Sect member. Even if he suppresses his cultivation, no one below the level of Martial Sect stands a chance against him. Are you sure you want to accept his challenge?" Murong Yun furrowed his brows and gazed at Ye Xuan with a grave voice, the undertone of his reminder was unmistakable.
Ye Xuan slowly nodded, his gaze sweeping across the three elders who were also stunned by his words. He knew that if he did not comply with these two old men today, he feared he would not be able to smoothly enter the Yang Yuan Pond and would instead invite a needless fight. With that in mind, why not accept their wishes and take the three moves from the other party?
If Shen Hong hadn’t mentioned suppressing his cultivation, Ye Xuan certainly wouldn’t have been confident in accepting the challenge. However, since the other party had suppressed his power to below that of a Martial Sect level, there might be a chance for battle after all.
Seeing Ye Xuan agree, Murong Yun’s brows knitted even tighter. He glanced at Shen Hong and the others, who appeared somewhat overjoyed, and could only helplessly nod, saying, "Since you’ve chosen this path, there’s nothing I can do. You only have one opportunity, and if you fail the challenge, I’m afraid you won’t be able to enter the Yang Yuan Pond for a while. So, think it through carefully."
Ye Xuan nodded with a smile, certainly not the reckless type. Unless he was confident about something, he would not pursue it. Moreover, this challenge was related to whether he could enter the Yang Yuan Pond or not, so it was certainly no trifling matter.
"Don’t worry, Hall Master. It’s only three moves. Who knows, maybe this young one could really hold out..."
Shen Hong’s mouth curved into a smile, but it was clear he had no intention of going easy.
To this, Murong Yun merely snorted coldly. This old fellow was truly stubborn and old-fashioned.
"Since there are no objections, let’s begin."
