Ye Chen, however, saw no point. To him, this first place was already determined.
No one here ... not even Yun Tao with his fresh breakthrough ... could stand against him.
Why waste ti when he could be using those days to cultivate?
His plan was simple: sweep through the sect with overwhelming strength, establish absolute dominance, and claim the title in one stroke
Strength ruled the Dou Qi Continent. If he was to one day inherit the sect, he had to show his power clearly .... not just to his peers, but to every elder, every disciple.
"Disciple agrees with Junior Brother Ye Chen's proposal!"
The voice rang out before the elders could respond. It was Yun Tao. His eyes glead with ambition as he spoke.
To him, this was an opportunity. Yes, the challenge was harder, but if he could seize victory under this rule, his glory would shine even brighter.
He would prove to the entire sect that he was not to be overshadowed.
"What do the elders think?" Yun Yun asked, her gaze shifting to the council.
The Great Elder stroked his beard, glancing at Yun Tao's confident face. After a pause, he nodded. "I find Ye Chen's idea reasonable."
Once the Great Elder spoke, the others quickly followed. "Indeed, it is a clever thod." "It will save ti and reveal strength more clearly."
Seeing the consensus, Yun Yun's lips curved in the faintest smile as her eyes returned to Ye Chen.
"This child… he knows how to build montum for himself."
She, better than anyone, knew Ye Chen's true strength.
She understood that this proposal wasn't arrogance for its own sake, but a deliberate move to establish authority.
"Very well," she announced. "This year's competition will proceed as Ye Chen suggested.
The rules shall be the Defend the Stage thod."
The disciples erupted into whispers, the air charged with both excitent and nervousness.
On the stage, Ye Chen stood tall, his eyes calm and unwavering.
He had declared his intention. Now ca the ti to prove it.
The entire training ground was buzzing with disbelief.
"The rules really changed?"
"Senior Brother Ye Chen actually wants to defend the arena all by himself? Isn't that way too arrogant?"
"Yeah! Doesn't he realize this ans everyone here can challenge him one after another? Isn't he afraid of being exhausted to death?"
The disciples of Cloud Mist Sect whispered and argued loudly.
None of them had expected the elders to agree so easily to Ye Chen's suggestion.
For generations, the sect tournant had always been decided by random draws....luck and matchups often determined outcos. But this new rule was different.
Defend the arena.
It was a far harsher test. Whoever stood on the platform would have to accept endless challenges in succession.
Only those who survived every battle until the end could be called a victor.
And Ye Chen… had been the very first to step onto the stage.
Either he had absolute confidence in his strength...
Or he was simply being reckless.
"Could it be that Senior Brother Ye Chen has already broken through to the Fighter Realm, just like Senior Brother Yun Tao?"
"That's possible. Otherwise, how could he dare to do this?"
"But Ye Chen is only fifteen years old! How could he already reach the Fighter Realm?"
"Even if he did, how can he endure a hundred battles in a row? This is madness!"
Doubt and suspicion filled the crowd. To most disciples, Ye Chen's move seed like pure arrogance.
At that mont, Sect Master Yun Yun rose to her feet.
Her eyes swept across the noisy crowd, then settled on Ye Chen, who stood calmly at the center of the arena, hands behind his back, his expression unshaken.
A faint smile flickered in her beautiful eyes.
"Since the elders have agreed," Yun Yun said, her voice carrying clear across the square, "there's no need to waste ti. Let the battles begin."
The mont her words fell, the square erupted.
Ever since Ye Chen broke through to the Great Fighter Realm, Yun Yun had known that this year's tournant would be his stage alone.
None of the inner disciples could truly threaten him anymore.
That was also why she had allowed the rule change without hesitation.
In fact, she had been preparing for this mont for a long ti.
She wanted to declare Ye Chen as the Young Sect Master, but the elders had always objected.
They claid Ye Chen was too young, his cultivation too shallow, and that it was too early to entrust him with such responsibility.
But if today....before the eyes of every disciple...Ye Chen defeated all challengers and stood as the undisputed number one… then what argunt could those old n have left?
Yes. This tournant was more than just a test. It was Ye Chen's chance to claim his rightful place.
