Chapter Ten: Initial Display of Power
"Hit the cow across the sky"
Wei Hong's face changed when he found out Ye Tian Nan was going to make a fatal move, no longer hiding, he rushed forward, simultaneously swinging his fists, the second form of the Fierce Ox Fist, heavily colliding with Ye Tian Nan's Flowing Star Hammer.
However, it only blocked the power of the Flowing Star Hammer for a moment. After the fierce attack of the Pugilist's Fist dissipated, the Flowing Star Hammer continued to smash towards Wei Ning on the ground.
However, in just a few breaths, Wei Hong had already arrived at Wei Ning's side and directly pulled him to one side while punching again.
"The fierce cow comes down from the mountain."
Wei Hong used his full strength, and with a wave of his right hand, a fierce bull appeared out of thin air. With Wei Hong's punch, the bull fiercely collided with the Flowing Star Hammer.
Wei Hong involuntarily took a few steps back, his right hand feeling a slight numbness, but his face was expressionless and abnormally cold as he said, "Get out."
Ye Tian Nan put away his own Flowing Star Hammer, with a hint of killing intent in his eyes as he stared at Wei Hong. He was somewhat astonished that Wei Hong had actually managed to withstand his finishing move, and looking at the opponent who was clearly from the Wei family, he couldn't help but feel even more puzzled - when did the Wei family have such an expert?
Compared to Ye Tian Nan's confusion, Wei Ning was in a daze. As for the illegitimate son of the Wei family, Wei Hong, Wei Ning still had some understanding of him. If it weren't for seeing this person wearing Wei family clothes, Wei Ning would have thought he was similar to Wei Hong!
"Martial artist, second-rate cultivation. You're looking for death, kid." Ye Tian Nan didn't stay shocked for long, especially after seeing Wei Hong's cultivation. He was enraged to the point of laughter and fiercely attacked him.
One of them pushed Wei Ning away, and Wei Hong entangled with Ye Tian Nan. Although this guy was a fifth-grade cultivator, Wei Hong relied on the Bull Demon Three Forms to fight him evenly.
"Damn it." Ye Tian Nan gazed at Wei Hong, who was always at a disadvantage but still had some strength left, and said in anger, while feeling his own waning martial energy. A hint of unwillingness flashed across Ye Tian Nan's eyes.
"Shooting Star Mallet."
With a loud shout, Ye Tian Nan used his martial energy to the extreme, heavily slamming towards Wei Hong. The speed was so fast that it made the sound in the air sharp.
"The world is in chaos."
Looking at Ye Tian Nan's fierce attack, Wei Hong clenched his fists tightly, took a deep breath, and then the martial energy transformed into his arms, transforming into a ferocious bull, letting out a loud roar, and fiercely charging towards the incoming Flowing Star Hammer.
"Bump."
The intense collision caused the two to retreat backwards, and Ye Tian Nan's face also turned pale at this time. He looked at Wei Hong with a reluctant gaze and shouted: "Withdraw."
As Ye Tian Nan's voice fell, the others who were attacking the Wei family also quickly retreated. Wei Ning stared blankly at the retreating figures of Ye Tian Nan and the others, muttering to himself: "Why did they retreat?"
"That Ye Tian Nan, it's clear that he hasn't reached the level of a fifth-grade martial artist, and is only relying on a secret technique to temporarily possess fifth-grade strength." Wei Hong glanced at Wei Ning and said calmly.
Wei Hong's soul force was extremely old and cunning, naturally sensing Ye Tian Nan's actual strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have rashly offered to help. After all, with his current strength, encountering a Martial Artist of the Fifth Rank would be utterly hopeless.
"Hehe, Wei Hong, thanks to you this time." Wei Ning also reacted at this moment, looking at Wei Hong and saying with gratitude.
Wei Hong and Ye Tian Nan's fight just now, others could also see it. At this time, everyone in their hearts had an idea, that is, Wei Hong was pretending to be a pig eating a tiger, and actually beat Ye Tian Nan away.
Wei Hong slightly waved his hand, after all, in his memory, although Wei Ning's relationship with him was not very good, he had never bullied him either. So, helping him out this time wouldn't be a problem.
"How did you meet Ye Tian Nan?" Wei Hong asked doubtfully, recalling what Ye Tian Nan had just said.
"We were a few people together in a mountain cave, and we found the Blood Yuan Grass. We also spent a lot of effort to kill the first-class demon beast that was guarding it. As a result, we were discovered by Ye Tian Nan, which led to the conflict." Wei Ning didn't hide anything, and calmly explained what had happened.
Xueyuan grass itself is not precious, but it's extremely rare. Moreover, to cultivate the Blood Splitting Palm, one must use Xueyuan grass, so for those cultivating the Blood Splitting Palm, a single sprout of Xueyuan grass would be worth buying even at a price of 10,000 taels of silver. No wonder Ye Tian Nan had ulterior motives when he saw the wealth. Furthermore, the Ye and Wei families have been sworn enemies for generations.
"Oh" Wei Hong merely let out a soft "oh", then turned and left, if he didn't leave now, the martial arts competition with Wei Bao would be missed, thus in just a few blinks of an eye, Wei Hong had already disappeared from view.
"Brother Ning, is that really Wei Hong?" a short young man asked uncertainly, staring at the disappearing figure of Wei Hong.
"Of course, can't our Wei family even have one decent person?" Wei Ning said softly, but in his heart, he was also puzzled. He had thought that Wei Hong would have some interest in the Blood Yuan Grass, but unexpectedly, he left without a word.
"By the way, Ning Ge, I heard that Wei Hong is going to have a martial arts competition with Wei Bao today. I thought it wouldn't be suspenseful at all, but now it seems like Wei Bao will probably lose." Another girl said calmly, furrowing her pretty eyebrows.
"Alright, let's hurry back! We can also take a look at the two of them competing." Wei Ning, who was clearly the leader among these people, waved his hand to stop everyone's discussion and said loudly.
。。。。。。。。。。。
"Young master, why did we just retreat?" On the other side, Ye Tian Nan's face didn't look good at this time, while a follower beside him asked in confusion.
"In the short term, we can't take him down, and continuing to fight won't be of any benefit. But who is that new kid? Obviously a second-rate martial artist, yet he's able to hold his own against me." Ye Tian Nan explained in an icy tone, while preparing to head back and thoroughly investigate the people of the Wei family.
A Blood Yuan Grass, it was just a little bit away from being obtained. How detestable! Next time I see that kid, I will definitely tear him to pieces. Ye Tian Nan thought of the Blood Yuan Grass and his heart felt a wave of anger, roaring out in rage.
The Wei Family
In the arena, there were already not a few people, and on the competition platform stood a coarse-clothed young man with a smile on his face, and in his eyes, from time to time, flashed a triumphant color. This person was none other than Wei Bao, who had agreed to fight with Wei Hong.
"Heh heh, this time I'll thoroughly teach Wei Hong a lesson. That way, the young master will surely reward me heavily. And when the young master becomes the head of the household, then..." Wei Bao's heart grew more and more delighted as he imagined the scene of Wei Hong begging for mercy at his feet.
"Wei Song, I'm sure your useless brother won't dare to come, will he?" Wei Wu You walked calmly to the front of Wei Song and said with a provocative tone.
"Hmph!" Wei Song let out a cold snort, turning his head away from the competition stage. However, in his heart, he was extremely furious. If Wei Hong had listened to him and taken the Violence Pill, they would still have had a chance to win. But that ungrateful thing...
More and more people came to the arena, but basically everyone discussed that they all didn't think highly of Wei Hong. Everyone thought that once Wei Hong went on stage, he would be instantly killed.
Suddenly everyone stopped talking, and the crow was silent. At the door, an old man walked in, plain and unremarkable, step by step onto the competition stage, looking at Wei Bao with a hoarse voice and said: "Wei Bao, this time I will be your judge, do you know if you are satisfied?"
"Satisfied, satisfied. Mr. Sun, you've come over yourself, I'm more than happy to oblige." Wei Bao clearly hadn't expected that Mr. Sun would actually come to act as a judge, and his whole body couldn't help but get excited.
The old man was none other than Sun Bo himself. He was very interested in the medicinal herbs that Wei Hong was holding, so he volunteered to come over and be the judge.
Another hour passed, and Wei Hong still hadn't arrived. Sun Bo couldn't help but furrow his brow, looking at Wei Song below him, and said lightly: "Wei Song, do you know where your younger brother went? Why hasn't he come yet?"
"Sun Bo, I...I don't know either." Wei Song said with a stifled tone, his face flushing bright red, and in his heart he was secretly cursing Wei Hong for making him lose face.
"Sun Bo, I thought Wei Hong was afraid, so he didn't dare to come!" At this time, Wei Wuyou in the field showed a smile and said loudly.
"Not bad, Sun Bo. As for Wei Hong, you may not know him well yet. If he really wants to compete on the arena, I'm afraid he can't even withstand one of my moves." Wei Bao said with a slight smile and an arrogant tone.
"Huh?" Sun Bo slightly furrowed his brow, could it be that he had misjudged that little kid?
Sun Bo looked disbelieving, so Wei Bao said again: "Sun Bo, I'm telling the truth. That kid is a waste of space. He's probably scared and ran away."
"Too much nonsense, just arrived a bit late, chattering away, who's the waste material, let's compare and see."
Wei Bao had barely finished speaking when a loud voice rang out, and in the blink of an eye, someone quickly walked onto the stage. With a disdainful glance at Wei Bao, he respectfully said to Sun Bo, "I encountered some trouble on the way, sorry for being late, Wei Hong has arrived."
