“I’m also here to advance into the Inner League,” Ye Mo answered indifferently.

“What? You’re here to advance as well? You’re only a Energy Shaping First Realm martial artist. How can you possibly advance into the Inner League?”

One of them was slightly alarmed by Ye Mo’s words. He looked Ye Mo up and down before saying, “It doesn’t matter if you’re here for advancement. The Martial Saint Hall is fully booked by the Xuan Ji League for the day. If you want to advance, wait until tomorrow.”

“Wait until tomorrow?” Ye Mo sneered and spoke nonchalantly, “You guys are merely part of the Inner League but you dare to put the Martial Saint Hall on a lockdown? Who gave you the right to do that?”

“Audacious! You are challenging the Xuan Ji Sub-League!” The Energy Shaping Fourth Realm martial artist bellowed. With a shout, a huge green energy sledgehammer appeared behind him. The sledgehammer appeared extremely intricate and contained the Explosive Power within. The moment the sledgehammer appeared, he slammed it down at Ye Mo.

“Hundred Refinement Divine Hammer!”

Boom!

An immense shockwave reached Ye Mo in the blink of an eye. The shockwave whizzed through the air with a rumbling sound. It travelled forward, creating cracks on the ground wherever it passed. If this huge shockwave landed on a regular person, that person would be blasted into smithereens. The shockwave instantly reached Ye Mo, yet Ye Mo was perfectly fine. He still stood there as if nothing had happened.

“An afterimage? How is this guy moving this fast?”

The Energy Shaping Fourth Realm league member was slightly alarmed. Then, darkness covered his eyes. Ye Mo had long arrived beside him. With his Purple Flame Spirit Qi wrapped around his Dragon Power, he formed a dragon fist and slammed it at the league member.

Bang!

That league member was immediately sent flying. A huge hole appeared on his chest. Even flesh that had been strengthened by origin energy wouldn’t feel too good after getting in contact with the Purple Flame Spirit Qi.

“How is this happening? As an Energy Shaping Fourth Realm martial artist, I can’t even take a punch from him?” That league member collapsed on the ground with agony strewn across his face. He then started stuffing pills into his mouth without stopping. The other Energy Shaping Fourth Realm league members were completely shocked. They wanted to charge at Ye Mo, yet their instinct told them charging aheaed would only lead to their death.

“What’s so great about being in the Energy Shaping Fourth Realm?” Ye Mo smiled in disdain. “I am now a disciple of Elder Feng. An Energy Shaping Fourth Realm martial artist won’t be able to take even one attack of mine. You guys better retreat. I still need to take my advancement assessment.”

“What? He’s Elder Feng’s disciple? I heard that a while ago, a certain Energy Shaping First Realm martial artist had defeated an Energy Shaping Fourth Realm with one punch. Is that him?”

“So what if that’s him?”

Suddenly, a voice sounded from the tunnel. Then, a heroic looking guy walked out. He was fully clothed in crimson garments and had a devilish charm on his face. This was one of the league members Xuan Ji was proud of, Xue Xiu. This Xue Xiu had once rescued Ye Changsheng at the Enchanted Cave and had also gifted a Nine Turn Seal Spiritual Pill to Yun Shan.

Xue Xiu was an Energy Shaping Sixth Realm martial artist and practiced an extremely odd cultivation technique. He had also comprehended the Attack Aura; he was a person that was comparable to an Elite League member. In the Xuan Ji Sub-League, he was also known as the Bloodthirsty Asura.

Ye Mo looked at Xue Xiu, whs was slowly walking over towards him. He was slightly stunned as he said, “So it’s you, the league member who had rescued Ye Changsheng back then. Surprisingly, you are still stuck in the Energy Shaping Sixth Realm even after so long. I am here to advance into the Inner League today. I suggest you guys to get out of my way.”

“How audacious!”

Xue Xiu’s expression shifted, his crimson eyebrows gathering into a shape resembling a blood sword. He then pushed out with his palm. Instantly, streams of air surged forward and with the might of a torrential beast and violent thunder, the stream transformed into a huge whirlpool above Ye Mo and tried to swallow him in.

“Asura’s Wrath!”

Suddenly, a huge crimson Infernal Asura appeared amid the huge whirlpool. It had eight arms, and each of the arms was holding onto a crimson weapon. The Infernal Asura waved the weapons aggressively.

This Asura’s Wrath was a Blood Qi martial technique he practiced, a technique that made use of his origin energy to form the Infernal Asura that was incomparably powerful and sinister. A regular Energy Shaping Sixth Realm martial artist would not be able to take on this attack.

This was the first time Ye Mo faced an Energy Shaping Sixth Realm martial artist. He could clearly feel a great aura of oppression being subjected on him. However, he did not retreat. The Dragon Blood coursing within him would not allow him to retreat. The Rising Dragon Pillar would not allow him to retreat either.

Two Dragon Spears were already formed, one in each of his hands. Both spears were enveloped by the Purple Flame Spirit Qi. He waved his hands around and in an extremely dexterous and tyrannical manner, he attacked the Infernal Asura.

Bang!

The crimson colored Asura was incapable of doing anything to Ye Mo. Its eight arms battled against Ye Mo’s two spears. They moved so quickly that only interweaving black and crimson flashes could be seen. The onlookers were all dazzled; some of them were even unaware of what was going on there.

Then, the Infernal Asura exploded into a berserk shockwave that blasted everywhere. All the league members were pushed backward by the shockwave; even keeping their legs on the ground was hard. Ye Mo was also pushed about 30 feet backward. The impact caused his blood to start roiling inside him.

“How can this guy defend against Senior Brother Xue Xiu’s Asura’s Wrath?”

“Even a regular Energy Shaping Sixth Realm martial artist would be ground to death by this Asura’s Wrath if they were careless. But that Ye Mo was only pushed backward by this technique?”

The league members watched on in disbelief and shock.

“An Energy Shaping Sixth Realm is indeed powerful. If I can enter the second realm, I might be able to give him a fight.” Ye Mo was inwardly alarmed. A casual attack by Xue Xiu was enough to injure him. Of course, he did not let it show that he was injured. He pretended like he was completely fine while the water element monkey on his Energy Core started automatically healing his injury.

Ever since he had entered the Energy Shaping Realm, the Five Elements Energy Core had changed. Apart from the appearance of the five monkeys, the other change was that the monkeys had also gained the ability to automatically move the origin energy within him. For example, when Ye Mo was injured, the monkey of the water element would be able to slowly heal him up.

The battle between Xue Xiu and Ye Mo had alarmed the three elders of the Martial Saint Hall. The three elders were respectively the representative of the three sub-leagues. They managed the Martial Saint Hall together, yet each of them served a different master.

“Who’s so brave to fight in the Martial Saint Hall?” A crooked old man asked while leisurely walking out into the hall. He had a small pair of eyes, so small his eyeballs were nearly not visible. Step by step, he walked forward. His gaze never left Ye Mo, who was seemingly up to no good.

“Elder Zi Long, this Ye Mo dares to publicly attack the members of Xuan Ji Sub-League in the Martial Saint Hall. Because of that, I taught him a lesson on behalf of Xuan Ji Sub-League.” A sinister smile crept onto Xue Xiu’s face.

“Oh? He’s so brazen he’s fighting in the Martial Saint Hall?” Elder Zi Long narrowed his eyes and stared at Ye Mo as he asked.

“Stop putting on a show. You are also part of the Xuan Ji Sub-League. If you want to do something to me, just admit to it. Who are you putting up a show for? Acting like you are so righteous here,” Ye Mo sneered.
