Chapter 167 - 167: Invincible White Python Grows Dragon Horns, The Hall Examination Begins (1)
It took An Le a very short time to rise from 19th on the Little Sacred Ranking to 9th.
However, the people on the Little Sacred Ranking who had been surpassed did not have any objections.
In fact, they had never thought of challenging An Le to regain their ranking because they were dissatisfied with the rankings.
This was because An Le’s battle results were real.
That day. on the long dike by West Lake. An Le fought Demon Subduing Master Monk Fakong. Many cultivators paid attention to him.
At that time, An Le was only at the third realm of Body Tempering and the fourth realm of Spirit Refinement. However, he actually defeated Monk Fakong and killed him in a bitter battle.
Although Monk Fakong was a Demon Subduing Master, his reputation was not ordinary. As one of the disciples of the Lotus Flower Temple’s Duhai Holy Monk, his Body Tempering and Spirit Refinement cultivation methods were top-notch.
In addition, he had fought demons all year round and was skilled in combat techniques. His methods were extremely ruthless. If he was placed on the Little Sacred Ranking, he would at least be ranked tenth.
On the other hand, An Le had killed Fakong openly in the battle and gathered a vast invincible aura. He had also successfully broken through to the fourth realm of Body Tempering and was ranked 9th on the Little Sacred Ranking. At this point, no one had any doubts.
If Ye Yinping, who was ranked eighth, wasn’t a disciple of the Ye family and was in the double fifth realm, the First Mountain Lord might have moved An Le’s ranking forward.
When An Le’s iconic invincible aura rose in Lin’an Prefecture, many people understood that An Le had begun to walk the legendary path again.
In the Imperial City, as soon as the news that the Hall Examination had been brought forward to three days, An Le immediately erupted with invincible aura and challenged Ye Yinping.
At this moment, they seemed to be opposing each other.
Although many people felt that the Hall Examination’s advancement was a little unreasonable, many generals were not surprised by the changes in the Imperial Court’s rules.
Prime Minister Qin, the Eldest Prince, the Sima family, and the Wang family… With so many forces meeting at the same time and His Majesty deliberately being biased towards Prime Minister Qin, this change in the rules did not seem so unexpected.
In front of Ye Residence.
An Le slowly walked down from the carriage. His white clothes fluttered, and the bamboo sword Green Mountain and Ink Pool Sword at his waist trembled slightly.
After alighting from the carriage, the door of the Ye Residence was already open.
“The ninth on the Little Sacred Ranking, An Le, is here to challenge the eighth on the Little Sacred Ranking, Ye Yinping.”
An Le looked at the Ye Residence and said.
The voice immediately surged and swept into the Ye Residence.
In the Ye Residence, majestic Qi Blood surged and powerful mental power fluctuated. Those were the experts hidden in the Ye Residence.
After a long time, Ye Yinping’s Primordial Spirit soared into the sky in the Ye Residence.
The Primordial Spirit opened its mouth and thundered.
“Come!”
An Le stepped into the Ye Residence step by step and followed the direction pointed by his Primordial Spirit to the Ye Residence’s garden, Water Pavilion.
In the empty space of the Water Pavilion, Ye Yinping, who was dressed in martial arts attire, held a spear that was completely red like a sharp spear. An Le stared at Ye Yinping, who was carrying an invincible aura as he stepped into the Water Pavilion in the garden.
The empty territory had unknowingly surrounded many people.
Madam Ye, Ye Wenxi, Ye Chong, and the others from the Ye Residence, as well as Madam Hua, Fourth Master Lin, Lin Zhuifeng, and the others who had come to watch the commotion.
The wind whistled unknowingly, and the invisible aura brought about waves, causing the cold spring wind to become a little bone-piercing.
An Le, who was dressed in white, stopped and stood in front of the empty space in the Water Pavilion, looking at Ye Yinping from afar.
Their auras collided with a bang.
In terms of aura, An Le, who came with an invincible aura, was naturally much stronger. The white python roared and seemed to easily suppress Ye Yinping’s volcanic aura.
This was an invincible aura. At the very least, An Le could gain a small advantage before the battle began.
However, it was not easy to gather an invincible aura, so the effect was reasonable.
Ye Yinping did not expect this battle to happen so quickly. However, she was not afraid. All she had was boiling battle intent.
The crimson spear in her hand was called Red Sleeves. It was a fourth-grade Dharma treasure. It had accompanied Ye Yinping all the way to growth. At that moment, it was trembling slightly, as if it was filled with excitement and anticipation.
An Le looked at Ye Yinping, whom he had met several times, and smiled. He cupped his fists and bowed.
The Ink Pool Sword at his waist had already rushed out. The sword qi instantly intertwined with the Water Pavilion, forming a huge black net.
“Please.”
An Le’s words were concise.
He knocked with his finger.
Under the control of his mental power, the Ink Pool Sword quickly galloped out like an ink mark splashed on the rice paper. Its speed was extremely fast!
After mastering the Future Sword Qi from the cliff, even though the Future Sword Qi was suppressed in Green Mountain by An Le, it still brought some changes to An Le.
That was the change in speed!
When it was fast enough and caught up to time, it could see the future!
This was An Le’s comprehension of the Future Sword Qi. Perhaps it was only superficial, but the increase in An Le’s strength was obvious.
As Ye Yinping’s pupils reflected the black sword beam that was getting faster and faster, her heart trembled. The Qi Blood in her body suddenly burst forth, and a sound that was like a tsunami hitting the shore erupted from the young girl’s petite body.
As a Body Tempering cultivator who had stepped into the fifth realm, her
Connate aura spread and increased her strength greatly, bursting out on the spear.
The spear stabbed straight out and touched the ink mark!
Clang
The sound of metal colliding was like a spark igniting.
The huge force made the Ink Pool Sword suddenly jump into the air. Ye Yinping exhaled and took a heavy step.. Red Sleeves swung like a ring of fire!
