Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ye Mo walked down the arena slowly, leaving the crowd speechless. Just one thrust from Ye Mo and down Ye Changsheng went.

Not one word, just a single thrust and Ye Mo was crowned the best of Limestone City.

Ye Kuang shifted a little as he witnessed everything. He knew that Ye Changsheng did not use all of his power.

But he also knew that no matter how normal Ye Mo’s attack looked, it was a deadly attack. Even if Ye Changsheng were to use all of his power, he would have a hard time defending against Ye Mo.

“Impossible! There’s no way Ye Changsheng would just lose to a single attack!” one of the Ye clan’s disciples said.

“Ye Changsheng lost the duel on purpose,” Ye Hou explained. “He told me that being the best in Limestone City doesn’t mean anything. Now that he has become a prized disciple for one of the Union Chiefs at Qingyun Alliance, there’s no way that title would satisfy him. He lost to Ye Mo intentionally to boost Ye Mo’s confidence in his match against Man Qi so that he would not run from the fight. Ye Mo will definitely die at the hands of Man Qi!”

“So that’s why,” the disciple exclaimed. “Like I said, there’s no way Ye Changsheng would lose to him!”

Yet the crowd held different opinions from the disciple.

“That thrust Ye Mo had just shown us it’s not a martial technique but a mere thrust! Did he just use the will of the spear?”

“One thrust and he defeated Ye Changsheng, a Spirit Cultivating Ninth Realm genius? This is the first time that our city has produced such a fine warrior!”

“Ye Mo is just way too strong!”

Xiao Yuanshan and Madam Xiao plasted on happy faces on the viewer’s stage, but deep down, they were worried for Ye Mo since his biggest enemy wasn’t Ye Changsheng but Man Qi.

Ye Changsheng quickly swallowed a few recovery pills and began to tend to his wounds. His face darkened as he recapped the thrust from Ye Mo.

Even Qin Hao was astonished by Ye Mo’s performances. He couldn’t help but admit that Ye Mo was strong, strong enough to claim the title of the best disciple in Limestone City.

“What a splendid match!” Qin Hao’s voice rang throughout the crowd. “Our participants are getting better every year! I will now announce the results of the Limestone Champion List Tournament! First place, Ye Mo! Second place, Ye Changsheng! Third place, Qin Tianmu! Fourth place, Leng Feng! And finally, fifth place, Leng Leng!”

After Qin Hao had announced the results, the crowd began to congratulate all four of the big clans while the clan heads replied with smiles, especially Leng Fubo. Now that Leng Feng and Leng Leng got into the Tiandi Alliance, the Leng clan would definitely flourish. But Leng Fubo also knew that everything that the Leng clan had all came from Ye Mo.

“Our top five participants may now enter the VIP box to claim their badges!” Qin Hao announced.

With his victory, Ye Mo had become the brightest star in the whole city. Quite a few young ladies were looking at Ye Mo with stars in their eyes, and Ye Mei was among them.

“Next year! I’ll definitely get into the Qingyun Alliance next year!” Ye Mei promised to herself.

Ye Mo jumped onto the viewer’s tower, nodded towards Xiao Yuanshan and Madam Xiao, and walked into the VIP box. Ye Changsheng, Qin Tianmu, Leng Feng, and Leng Leng also followed Ye Mo into the box.

Yao Yue took out two badges from her dimensional bracelet and handed them to Ye Mo and Ye Changsheng.

“These badges are proof that the both of you have the right to participate in our Entrance Trial,” Yao Yue said. “Remember, winning the trial doesn’t mean that you are already accepted into the alliance.”

Ye Mo nodded and accepted the badge from Yao Yue’s hand. He noticed that the word “Qin” was written on his badge while Ye Changsheng had the word “Yun” on his badge.

“Why are our badges different?” Ye Mo asked.

“Come to the Unbreakable Mountain located at West Zhou in two months, and you’ll know,” Yao Yue said.

Leng Feng and Leng Leng also got their own badges from the Tiandi Alliance. Leng Feng has the word “Di” on his badge while Leng Leng had the word “Tian” on hers.

After they had handed over their badges to the winners, all three disciples from the Three Major Alliances left.

“Ye Mo, don’t think that you’re the best just because you defeated me,” Ye Changsheng scolded. “My power will increase at a tremendous speed when I arrive at the Qingyun Alliance, and by then, I’ll be stronger than you! The strongest will always be the one who can stand until everyone is dead!”

“You’re right,” Ye Mo taunted and jumped off the VIP box. “The strongest will be the one who can stand until the end!”

Now that the tournament had come to an end, no one was left except for the disciples from the alliances because there was another big fight they were dying to see.

As soon as Ye Mo jumped down from the box, he could hear a familiar voice coming from afar. Ye Mo frowned and looked at where the voice came from as a group of people marched into the plaza.

The one leading the group wasn’t Man Weiwu, but instead was the Barbarian’s High Priest. The High Priest was thin, but Ye Mo could feel that he was the real deal and not a clone.

“Congratulations on winning the tournament!” Man Weiwu shouted. “But don’t celebrate too much as you’re going to die soon!”

“Not before I defeat Man Qi!” Ye Mo shouted as he stared at Man Qi. “Have enough fun yet? Why don’t we begin?”

“I’m going to kill you today and take your badge off your dead body!” Man Qiu laughed and landed right in front of Ye Mo.

Xiao Yuanshan had his eyes on the High Priest the whole time. He let out a breath of relief as soon as he saw the High Priest took Man Weiwu to the side of the stage.

“Ye Mo, be careful,” Xiao Yuanshan said.

Ye Mo nodded. He’d only have to wait for the right time to use the Heavenly Frost Charm in his possession. And with the spear technique Twin Dragon Emerging from the Sea, he might be able to take Man Qi’s life in one go.

Taking Ye Mo’s life might only be one of the reason for the Barbarian to march into the Limestone City, there was a high chance that they wanted to take the whole city down.

The crowd was eagerly waiting for the fight to begin. Even if Ye Mo had managed to defeat Ye Changsheng with a single thrust of his spear, Man Qi was still an Energy Shaping First Realm warrior. The difference in level was so great that Ye Mo would’ve died the instant the match began.

“Qin Hao!” Man Weiwu shouted. “Why don’t you host this fight too since you were the one who hosted the tournament?”

“No problem!” Qin Hao agreed and jumped onto the stage, landing between Ye Mo and Man Qi. “This will be a fight to the death! Begin!”

“I’ll definitely kill you today! I’ll show you the difference between a Spirit Cultivating Realm and an Energy Shaping Realm!” Man Qi shouted as he swung his arm around. He tightened his grip as a huge Energy Hammer appeared in his hand. The power of Energy Shaping First Realm, shaping energy.

“Come on! Show me!’ Ye Mo challenged as he wielded the Formation-Breaking Spear in his hand. It was the first time Ye Mo would fight against an Energy Shaping First Realm warrior, and he was very cautious of every move that his opponent would be making.
