Mengba's heart skipped a beat when he noticed Ye Qingchen's gaze.
What is supposed to come will definitely come.
as expected.
The next moment, Ye Qingchen's voice sounded on the competition stage.
"Senior Brother Meng, since you and I have met each other, how about we come and compare notes?"
Seeing the clearly pointed smile on Ye Qingchen's face, the disciples in the audience became more and more certain that Ye Qingchen definitely had a grudge against Meng Ba!
At the elders' table, the faces of the fifth elders became increasingly ugly.
His direct disciple was targeted like this in public, and his face was a little dull.
He asked: "Junior Brother Xiao, what is going on? Do you really know nothing?"
Xiao Lin still shook his head, looking confused.
He had never heard of Ye Qingchen and Mengba having any beef!
At this time, the Wind Soul Leopard who returned to him roared and returned to Xiao Lin's bracelet, which was emitting a cyan light.
In an instant, Xiao Lin's expression changed slightly.
He has made a soul contract with the Wind Soul Leopard, so he can communicate with him through his soul.
And he had already learned from the Wind Soul Leopard that Ye Qingchen had been assassinated by an assassin from Yousha Pavilion!
Ye Qingchen seemed to have used some method to search for the souls of the assassins in Yousha Pavilion, and then directly targeted Mengba!
After knowing everything, Xiao Lin immediately concealed the surprise in his eyes and waited for the next development of the situation.
He knows that Ye Qingchen will never be the kind of person who suffers losses and refuses to collect debts!
On the test bench.
"Since Junior Brother Ye has invited you, I have no choice but to accompany you."
Meng Ba chuckled and immediately boarded the competition stage.
In fact, he felt more nervous than ever before.
He knows the strength of the Black and White Shuangsha better than anyone else.
Even the black and white demons were defeated at the hands of this boy. How much benefit could he get with his sixth-level Star Gathering Realm cultivation?
But no matter what, he had no choice but to bite the bullet!
"I've heard rumors about Senior Brother Meng before, and when I saw him today, he was indeed a 'talented person'."
Ye Qingchen grinned, his words full of irony.
"Hahaha, junior brother, you deserve the award. Junior brother is the real first-class talent."
Mengba completely pretended not to hear the irony, and a warm smile appeared on his face.
"Elder Ao, you can start."
Ye Qingchen nodded towards the war supervisor elder.
The war supervisor glanced at the two of them with interest and immediately gave an order.
"The competition begins!"
After the words fell, the Yu Cang Sword instantly appeared in Ye Qingchen's hand.
The pale sword blade shines brightly in the sunlight.
"Is that the strange sword in this kid's hand? It really looks extraordinary."
Mengba had also heard the anecdote about how Wan Jian surrendered when the Yucang Sword appeared, so he stopped bragging and directly summoned his own weapon.
A golden spear appeared in his hand.
boom!
However, before he could get into his stance, he heard a muffled sound and Ye Qingchen's figure suddenly disappeared!
"!!"
Mengba's face changed drastically, and he turned around with the spear in his hand to block it.
clang!!
The Yu Cang Sword struck the gun body, making an ear-splitting clang.
Sensing the huge impact coming from the gun, Mengba couldn't help but be surprised.
How could a guy from the Guiyuan realm be able to unleash such a powerful force?!
Suddenly, he shouted loudly, and the gun body vibrated violently, knocking Ye Qingchen away.
As the force of his spear changed, the tip of the spear pierced his face like a tarsus!
Facing the sharp spear point, Ye Qingchen sneered, and the lightning flashed on his body.
Chi!
The tip of the spear pierced Ye Qingchen's afterimage.
Mengba didn't feel any surprise, and suddenly changed his gun's posture again, changing from stabbing to sweeping.
"Desolate mountains and rivers!"
An aura like sweeping mountains and rivers burst out from Mengba's body, and the spear in his hand also burst out with dazzling golden light, sweeping forward with powerful power!
The disciples under the competition stage all felt a fierce momentum coming towards their faces.
Ye Qingchen, who appeared in front of Mengba, had no change in expression, and the Yu Cang Sword in his hand suddenly unfolded with a flash of night.
Countless sword shadows like stars crashed down!
The power that swept the mountains and rivers was suddenly broken!
However, the numerous star-like sword shadows still did not end, covering Mengba Dang in the sky!
Mengba's face changed slightly, and the spear rotated at high speed in his palm, turning into a barrier, blocking all the thousands of sword shadows!
Boom! Boom! Boom!...
The ground around him was bombarded by thousands of sword shadows, creating countless craters and cracks.
After blocking this move, Mengba grabbed the spear, his arms trembling slightly.
He seemed to understand why Liu Juefeng was defeated by Ye Qingchen.
The martial arts skills used by this guy are really too powerful!
"Powerful martial arts must also be accompanied by great consumption. I think you can still use it a few times with a small Guiyuan realm!"
Mengba gritted his teeth, stepped hard on his feet, and rushed towards Ye Qingchen!
The spear in his hand was like a fierce dragon crossing the river, piercing Ye Qingchen's waist!
Thunder light flashed from Ye Qingchen's body, and he moved behind Mengba like lightning, and slashed him with his sword!
Chi!!
Blood splashed.
Mengba, who had no time to dodge, had no choice but to use his arm to block it, and was cut directly with a wound that was as deep as the bone!
"This guy's body is actually so strong?"
Now it was Ye Qingchen's turn to be a little surprised.
Although the current state of Yucangjian is far inferior to that at its peak, it cannot display much strength in Ye Qingchen's hands.
But its sharpness is still outrageous.
Ye Qingchen slashed down with his sword with all his strength, and even the fourth-level monsters could be cut into two!
But he failed to cut off one of Mengba's arms directly!
However, compared to Ye Qingchen's surprise, Meng Ba was even more shocked!
He endured the pain and quickly distanced himself from Ye Qingchen!
"Oh? The sword in that little guy's hand is so powerful, it can actually injure Mengba who has cultivated the 'Lava Ancient Body' like this."
The great elder raised his eyebrows slightly, with a look of interest in his eyes.
[Lava Ancient Body] is an extremely powerful body-refining martial skill in their Xuanyu Academy.
This martial skill requires the practitioner to have a very high affinity for the earth and fire elements, and this martial skill needs to be practiced in a lava field.
Among the top five direct disciples, only Mengba met these requirements.
Not only that, after acquiring the martial skill [Lava Ancient Body], Mengba even practiced this martial skill to the point of perfection.
Even without using this martial skill, the defensive power of his body's surface is much higher than that of other warriors in the same realm.
But even so, when he used this martial art with all his strength, Ye Qingchen still almost cut off his entire arm!
This shows how extraordinary that strange long sword is!
Hearing this, the face of the fifth elder became even more ugly.
All of them can see that Mengba will definitely be defeated by Ye Qingchen before long!
On the test bench.
Ye Qingchen looked at Mengba not far away who was covering his arms and tense all over, and said with a smile:
"Senior Brother Meng is really difficult to deal with. After fighting for so long, I still haven't been able to defeat Senior Brother Meng."
Hearing this, Mengba almost exploded with anger.
No matter what tricks he used, he was never able to touch the hem of Ye Qingchen's clothes.
Instead, he almost chopped off an entire arm!
Although he was furious in his heart, Mengba managed a smile on his face.
He took back the spear in his hand, with a sincere look on his face.
"Junior brother Ye really has endless potential, even I can't get much benefit from you."
"Since Junior Brother Ye wants the fifth place so much, I will give it to you."
As soon as Mengba said these words, everyone was shocked.
This is equivalent to admitting defeat!
The fifth elder was shocked and immediately started shooting.
"Mengba! What nonsense are you talking about! Take these words back!" "Even if you lose, you must be convinced of your defeat! Instead of admitting defeat like this!"
As the master who knew him best, the fifth elder could clearly tell at a glance that Mengba was beginning to fear the battle!
Doesn't he know how much negative impact it will have on him to admit defeat in public like this?
But how did he know that what Mengba was thinking about now was not the so-called negative impact at all.
Now he just wants to leave here quickly!
Mengba knew it very well.
Ye Qingchen must have known for a long time who the person who asked the assassins of Yousha Pavilion to assassinate him was.
If he doesn't leave here quickly, he may be exposed by Ye Qingchen directly!
Once this kind of thing is exposed, the background behind him will be greatly impacted!
There will no longer be a place for him in Xuanyu Academy!
This is much scarier than the so-called negative impact!
"I don't want fifth place."
Ye Qingchen slowly shook his head and showed a cold smile.
"What I want... is to ruin your reputation and eventually die in my hands!"
One sentence made Mengba's face change dramatically!
"Really...hehehe...hahahaha!!"
Suddenly, he laughed like a madman.
The eyes looking at Ye Qingchen were no longer full of fear, but a touch of morbid madness!
"If that's the case... then you should die first!!"
The golden spear appeared from his hand again.
"puff!"
As he sprayed a mouthful of blood on the gun, the golden gun body suddenly trembled violently and gradually turned into blood red!
At that moment, almost everyone's heart skipped a beat.
They can clearly feel it.
A violent soul hidden deep in the gun body... has awakened!
"No! He actually forcibly awakened the violent ape spirit in the ancient ape gun!"
The fifth elder was shocked.
The spear in Mengba's hand is called the Ancient Ape Spear, and it is a top-grade spiritual weapon.
There remains a wisp of extremely powerful ape spirit inside.
Originally, he wanted Mengba to reach the state of enlightenment and master a trace of the power of the law before forcibly controlling this ray of ape spirit.
But he never expected that Mengba would be crazy enough to forcefully awaken the ape spirit in this ranking match!
On the test bench.
Wisps of blood-red aura floated out from Mengba's body, converging into a blood-red ape shadow above him!
"Roar!!"
The ape shadow looked up to the sky and roared, and an extremely violent aura instantly filled the air!
The supervising elders on the side were all shaken to their core, and looked at Mengba with a hint of fear!
Looking at the blood-red ape silhouette roaring up to the sky, Ye Qingchen's face showed an unprecedented seriousness.
He slowly tightened his grip on the Yucang Sword in his hand.
He knew that this was Mengba's last trump card!
"Ye Qingchen! If you hadn't forced me, I wouldn't have used this move to damage my blood essence!"
"But since you insist on forcing me to a dead end, then be prepared to pay the price for your stupid behavior!"
Mengba's eyes were filled with red, and ferocious blood streaks appeared on the surface of his body.
As he pointed the spear in his hand at Ye Qingchen, the tall blood-red ape shadow also locked onto him in an instant!
"go to hell!!"
The spear in his hand thrust forward suddenly, and the blood-red ape shadow let out a deafening roar, raised its huge fists, and flew down towards Ye Qingchen!
Facing this powerful blood-red ape shadow, a sharp light flashed in Ye Qingchen's eyes!
The Yu Cang Sword in his hand buzzed and trembled, making waves of sword roars!
As he swung his right hand horizontally, the Yu Cang Sword flashed out a pale sword light.
At first, this sword light was only a few feet in size.
But under the astonished gazes of everyone, the sword light suddenly surged to tens or hundreds of feet in an instant!
The hundreds of feet of huge pale sword light carried a mighty force that could destroy the sky, and slashed directly at the ape shadow!
