Rumble! Rumble!
The door opened, and both Ye Mo and Zi Yi who had been waiting for a while stood up at the same time.
“Ok. The two inside, the time is up. You may come out,” the voice of the Luosha Guard rang out. The two left the cave.
The two rewarded the Luosha Guard with some cultivation resources before leaving the Luosha Palace.
“Those two are not greedy individuals. The warriors I have encountered in the past would intentionally drag it on even when it was agreed that they would only be absorbing for one day. But how much more energy could they absorb from the Luosha Blood Pool with the tiny amount of additional time they gain from dragging it out?” With a laugh, the guard walked into the cave. He was immediately stunned where he stood while his smile froze on his face.
“This...this...all the energy has been absorbed?” The Luosha Guard was momentarily stunned before he immediately yelled, “Luosha Guards, listen to me. Seize that woman in purple. Her talent is terrifying. We must stop her. If the palace leader finds out, we will be handsomely rewarded as well.”
Outside the palace, Ye Mo took his leave from Zi Yi and headed back to Cloudsea City with Mu Qing.
“You were soaking in the pool with that woman?” Mu Qing asked when they were on their way.
“Yes,” Ye Mo answered with a nod.
“Did you see anything?” Mu Qing started behaving like a wife interrogating her husband.
“What can I see? It’s not like you have never been there. The pool is like a swamp,” Ye Mo said.
When the two arrived at Mu Mansion, Ye Mo made known his intention to participate in the Luosha City’s autumn examination. The yearly Luosha City autumn examination, the fight over the Luosha Token, was starting soon. Each year in the Luosha Kingdom, only three Luosha Tokens were issued. This was a rule set by the Door of Desolation. Even though the Luosha Kingdom was a high-level kingdom under the Door of Desolation, their yearly allotted quota remained at three.
Some middle level or low-level kingdoms would not even be issued a single quota.
“Ye Mo, I disagree.” When Mu Feng heard of Ye Mo’s intention to participate in the examination at Luosha City, he disagreed without even thinking about it.
“Father in law, a man should always aspire to travel far and make his mark. I can’t stay in Cloudsea City forever, right?” Ye Mo said as he pulled at Mu Qing’s sleeve.
“Father, Ye Mo is correct. I don’t want to see Ye Mo staying in Cloudsea City forever either. The husband of Mu Qing must have an outstanding accomplishment in life,” said Mu Qing as she stepped forward.
“Sigh. Ye Mo, Qing’er, I know what you mean. A young man will always be hot-blooded. But the reality is cruel. Your dead mother in law used to be as hot-blooded as you. She pursued strength and greatness and ultimately left us. In truth, life with one’s family in Cloudsea City can be good as well. Ruling a small city and living a comfortable life. What’s so bad about that?” Mu Feng said with a sigh.
“Father in law, a man should always be striving to be strong, to dominate everything. If I am to fail, I will merely return to the dust, becoming one with nature again. Man originated from nature in the first place. And if I succeed, I shall be the lord of my life.” Ye Mo voiced the words that he had only recently understood.
Those words shocked even Mu Qing. To strive to be strong, and to return to nature in death. Everyone was born ordinary, and if one persisted and succeeded, one could be an expert dominating everything.
“Fine words. Dominating everything. What resolve. If you want to participate in that examination, I will allow you to go so long as you can pass my test,” said Mu Feng as he slammed his hand on the table.
“What will the test be?” Ye Mo asked curiously with his brows raised.
“So long as you can defeat me, I will allow you to go,” Mu Feng said.
“Father, you have just advanced to a pseudo-Heaven’s Strength Realm. How can Ye Mo be your match?” Mu Qing said anxiously.
“Qing’er, those participating in the autumn examination are all the top talents of the Luosha Kingdom from the various sects, tribes, and clans. Without the combat power equaling a Heaven’s Strength Realm warrior, participating in that examination is the same as suicide.”
In a way, Mu Feng was trying to discourage Ye Mo with his words. If in the Tianwu Kingdom, True Energy Realm was the mark of being an expert among the young generation. At the Luosha Kingdom, one had to be at Heaven’s Strength Realm to be considered a genius among the young generation. To obtain a Luosha Token at the autumn examination, one had to be a genius among geniuses.
“Father in law, how difficult is it to defeat you?” Ye Mo said while Mu Qing was arguing with Mu Feng.
The two were astonished. Although Ye Mo had advanced to mid-stage True Energy Realm and was able to defeat Hong Clan with a single wave of his spear, a pseudo-Heaven’s Strength Realm warrior was easily able to do the same as well. After all, a pseudo-Heaven’s Strength Realm expert was already able to use Heaven’s Strength Qi and had access to an incomparably mighty power.
“Ye Mo, you talk big. But I like it. Looks like you have profited greatly from the Luosha Blood Pool. Let me take a look at your current level.” Mu Feng roared with laughter and said, “Come with me to the public square!” Mu Feng clapped and immediately charged out. With a smile, Ye Mo followed along.
In the public square, two figures stood. They were about 30 meters from each other and at present, Ye Mo was wielding his Sky Blood Spear. As for Mu Feng, he wielded a sword. That was a Spirit Weapon he had bought a short while ago.
“Ye Mo, attack at full power. Let me see how powerful the man who has obtained the favor of my daughter is.”
“Don’t worry, father in law. I will use my full strength.”
Bang!
Mu Feng’s face turned solemn as majestic true energy started erupting from his body. The sword he wielded started humming and glowing. With a wave, he created numerous energy wind blades. The energy wind blades were overflowing with numerous colors. It was as if a storm had hit the public square with the flagstones on the ground being uprooted and sent flying everywhere.
“Berserk Wind Blade!” Mu Feng yelled and like a dancing silver snake, his sword transformed into a wind blade that twisted and turned in the air, slicing the air into pieces.
“A pseudo-Heaven’s Gate Realm is nearly one-fold stronger than a late-stage True Energy Realm. But it is still not enough for me.”
Ye Mo raised his brow and lifted his Sky Blood Spear before erupting with 20,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power. He stabbed out, creating a sharp radiance that flashed forward to instantly send all the wind blades in the air flying everywhere, landing on the roof and pillars.
The two were attacking at full strength. The moment Ye Mo attacked, he unleashed the spirituality of the Sky Blood Spear. With this head-on collision, the stronger attack would emerge victoriously.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Countless blades flew everywhere, cutting off numerous pieces from the buildings around the public square and causing the pieces to rain down on the public square. Many buildings around the square were now missing a piece. As for Mu Feng, he was forced into retreat repeatedly and was only able to stabilize his footing after more than 10 steps.
“Good match, father in law,” Ye Mo said with his hands clasped.
“This?” Mu Feng had originally thought that after reaching pseudo-Heaven’s Strength Realm, he could defeat Ye Mo. But he only realized the difference between them after the fight. That stab of Ye Mo’s spear had not only suppressed him in terms of technique but even in terms of will, he had been completely suppressed.
Even Mu Qing who was standing to the side was completely shocked. Ye Mo was too much of a freak.
