  The Diamond Fist in Ye Chen's hands seemed to come alive, evolving into many wonderful uses, and actually firmly blocked Ye Jun's continuous leg kicks.

  "Hardness and softness are one, not divided into yin and yang, this is the highest realm of Gang Meng Quan Fa." Lin Cheng Zhu inhaled a cold breath, he had lived for so many years, seen countless geniuses, but very few people reached Ye Chen's level in martial arts.

  Ye Jun's face was gloomy, at this moment he had already made eleven moves, yet he couldn't even touch Ye Chen, the opponent's stubbornness exceeded his expectations.

  "Four Revolving Ghost Fire Kill!" "Three Kills Ghost Path!"

  The next seven moves can be combined into two ultimate moves. Ye Jun gathered all his inner energy and launched a fatal attack on Ye Chen.

  At this moment, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel that his martial skills were insufficient. Excluding swordsmanship, he only had two high-level human-grade martial skills: the Golden Fist and the Overbearing Fist. The latter was too overbearing and difficult to practice with his current cultivation level, even posing a risk of self-harm.

  "This time before going back, I must break through to the realm of true condensation. After becoming an inner door disciple, no matter how many top-grade martial skills there are at the human level, at least it won't be as embarrassing as it is now."

  Facing a 'dangerous' situation, Ye Chen let out a bitter smile and raised his strength to the peak of threefold, punching seven punches into the air.

  Boom boom boom boom boom...

  A burst of air currents exploded in the field, blowing Ye Chen back several steps, his feet floating, he looked up to see Ye Jun, dressed in purple, like a kite with a broken string, drawing a beautiful arc in mid-air, finally landing on the edge of the crowd.

  "Alright, won beautifully?" Only then did Ye Tianhao let out a breath of relief and exchanged a smile with Shen Yiqing.

  The man beside Ye Ba Tian let out a dry laugh and cast his gaze onto Ye Tang, hoping that his most favored son could give him an explanation.

  On the other side, Ye Xiaomei burst out laughing, "I knew it! Ye Chen will win."

  Upon hearing this, Ye Xuan furrowed her brow. In that instant just now, she had clearly sensed Ye Chen's power increase by a fold, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to easily defeat Ye Jun.

  "Ye Chen wins, third round, Ye Hai against Ye Ming!" The three elders were somewhat surprised, but they didn't think much of it. After all, Ye Chen's cultivation was a notch higher than Ye Jun's, so winning was only natural.

  Ye Hai and Ye Ming's exchange was extremely fierce, with both of their styles being the same - every move and every technique was ruthless and decisive, never dragging on or hesitating. Many times it seemed as if they had a vendetta against each other, fighting to the death to take down their opponent.

  "It's your fault for not being strong enough!" Finally, Ye Hai unleashed his true power and struck Ye Ming with a flurry of two palms, sending him flying.

  "Ye Haisheng, fourth round, Ye Xuan versus Ye Jin!"

  In the crowd, Ye Jin thought for a moment and raised her hand: "I give up."

  The three elders nodded and said to Ye Lin, the last contestant: "Now you can choose your opponent. If you win, you can replace him; if you lose, you will be eliminated."

  Ye Lin looked at Ye Xuan, Ye Tang and Ye Hai, shook his head, then looked at Ye Chen, still shaking his head. "Three Elders, I concede!"

  The first three are absolutely unbeatable, as for Ye Chen, although he is not a condensed true realm warrior, from the previous two matches, it can be seen that those below the condensed true realm are absolutely no match, why bother to humiliate himself, might as well admit defeat, anyway, at this point, he has lost the desire to think about the top three.

  "That's good, now there are four people left, namely Ye Tang, Ye Chen, Ye Hai and Ye Xuan. The first match is Ye Tang against Ye Chen, the second match is Ye Hai against Ye Xuan. The winner will enter the final and compete with another winner for the first place in the Ye family meeting. Next, there will also be a competition for the second and third places. Do you have any objections?" The three elders looked at the four of them.

  Including Ye Chen, all four of them shook their heads.

  The three elders said: "Since that's the case, you all take a rest for a moment and try to recover your depleted true energy, lest when the time comes, you'll be in a situation where your true energy is insufficient."

  After finishing speaking, he sat down with a plop and picked up his teacup to drink tea.

  In the arena, only four people were left, and they looked at each other. To be precise, Ye Tang, Ye Hai, and Ye Xuan looked at each other, while Ye Tang glanced at Ye Chen for some reason, as if telling him to wait and see what would happen later. The other two almost ignored Ye Chen, after all, they were competing for the first place, and with Ye Chen's cultivation base at the peak of the 10th layer of Qi Refining, he didn't even have the qualifications to intervene.

  Ye Chen smiled and returned to his own position for a short rest.

  "Yexuan, up to now, you should have only used thirty percent of your strength, I don't know if what I'm saying is right or not." Yehai had already taken Yexuan as his greatest opponent and spoke tentatively.

  Ye Xuan gently brushed away the hair in front of her forehead and calmly said: "Apart from you two, no one else is qualified to make me use more than sixty percent of my strength."

  "More than 60%, don't be arrogant yet. Once I deal with Ye Chen, let you experience the violent snow knife technique of Beixue Manor." Ye Tang sneered.

  Ye Xuan turned around and walked back to her seat, leaving behind a sentence: "I have seen many stunning talents in Feicui Valley, including Master Brother Feicui Gongzi, Second Master Brother 'Palm Absolute' Liu Wuxiang, Third Master Brother Shi Potian. Compared to them, you are only an average talent, not qualified for cross-level challenges, so if you challenge me, you will definitely lose."

  The final has not yet begun, and Ye Hai can already feel the tense atmosphere, his breathing slightly rapid. By now, he is no longer fighting just for first place, but more for the sake of fighting itself. After all, everyone is a genius, but there must be a winner and loser in the end.

  Time flies in an instant.

  No need for the three elders to announce, Ye Chen and Ye Tang arrived at the center of the field, standing ten meters apart.

  "Don't struggle in vain, you're absolutely no match for me. After defeating you, I'll go on to defeat Ye Xuan and Ye Hai." Ye Tang was eager to fight Ye Xuan and had lost interest in Ye Chen, trying to end the battle as soon as possible.

  Ye Chendao said: "A wandering heart and a restless energy are the greatest taboos for a warrior. In this regard, you have already lost."

  "Cut the crap and give me defeat."

  Ye Tang suddenly activated his true energy, and his white shirt fluttered without wind. A white icy aura appeared outside his body, causing the temperature to drop sharply within a radius of several meters. He stomped his foot fiercely, and like a flying swan, he leaped out. Countless knife-like hands chopped towards Ye Chen in all directions.

  "A thousand mountains covered in snow!"

  This move is a knife technique, but Ye Tang has evolved it into a hand blade, although the power has been greatly reduced, it is more than enough to deal with warriors below the Condensing Realm.

  Hehehe!

  The air was cut through in an instant, with layers of white hand knives stacked up, covering the entire mountain.

  "Give me a break!"

  Power increased to over 60%, Ye Chen refused to back down, his fists flying out in a flurry of punches, like a hundred arrows firing at once, like the surging Yangtze River, crashing into countless hand blades with a fierce and unyielding attitude.

  In an instant, the sound of air bursting forth rose and fell in succession, causing a turbulent airflow to appear at the center of the stage, which could easily blow away a fierce tiger.
