Eternal Dragon Emperor Chapter 197 198: Making an Enemy of the Sima Clan

Ye Tian smoothly escaped the light falling from the hexagram, feeling as if he'd just had a brush with death. The Ten Extres Trapped Dragon Slash was truly formidable. If the War Dragon Remnant Soul hadn't helped him, he might have actually been killed by that golden knife.

Ye Tian's successful escape left many people dumbfounded, especially Sima Tianquan and Xiao Wenjie. His survival completely subverted their expectations. It was simply unbelievable that soone could escape a peerless Hidden Weapon like the Ten Extres Trapped Dragon Slash.

At that mont, everyone erupted in cheers, overjoyed at Ye Tian's escape. Sima Tianquan, however, was plunged into despair.

The golden knife struck the spot where Ye Tian had just been standing, punching several large holes through the platform. A terrifyingly powerful storm of Energy spread out in all directions.

Ye Tian glanced at Sima Tianquan, who wasn't far away. "Sima Tianquan," he said, "if you have any other tricks up your sleeve, go ahead and use them. I'll be right here waiting. But that incense stick is about to burn out. You're running out of ti to kill ."

"Ye Tian, don't celebrate too soon," Sima Tianquan said. "You got lucky this ti, but it looks like you've run out of ti to kill , too!"

"Is that so?" Ye Tian retorted angrily. "Then let's see if I can kill you!"

The mont he finished speaking, his longsword flickered. He shot toward Sima Tianquan like a phantom, moving so fast that most people couldn't react before he was already standing before him.

Sima Tianquan instinctively tried to dodge, but his severe injuries had slowed his reactions and movents considerably. Ye Tian's longsword plunged unerringly into his heart.

"It's impossible for you to kill now, but it's the perfect ti for to kill you," Ye Tian whispered to Sima Tianquan. "In your next life, try to see a little more clearly. Don't think you're so great. In my eyes, you're the real ant."

Staring at the longsword in his chest, Sima Tianquan's face turned ashen. The aura of life rapidly drained from his body. He knew he was about to follow in Murong Rufeng's footsteps. 'This Ye Tian is terrifying! He's not even human!'

Ye Tian glanced at the incense stick, which had almost burned down. He quickly yanked his longsword from Sima Tianquan's body and swiftly retreated.

As the longsword left his body, a spray of blood shot out. Sima Tianquan stared at Ye Tian, his eyes wide with regret and indignation, but it was already too late.

"Ye Tian, you won't co to a good end! My... my brother will take your life!" Sima Tianquan managed to say before he collapsed.

He was already severely wounded, so with his heart pierced by Ye Tian's blade, death was a certainty. He collapsed onto the platform, filled with indignation. Perhaps even in his wildest dreams, he never imagined he would fail to kill Ye Tian after using the Ten Extres Trapped Dragon Slash, only to die by Ye Tian's sword instead.

Just then, the incense stick on the platform burned out, bringing the decisive battle between Ye Tian and Sima Tianquan to an end. However, Ye Tian had managed to kill Sima Tianquan in the final monts—a fact that many found hard to accept.

Everyone had witnessed the perilous situation Ye Tian was in just monts before. They had all thought his death was certain and never expected such a stunning reversal. At the sa ti, they were all shocked by his terrifying power.

anwhile, in the crowd, Sima Tianhai's face was dangerously dark. 'My own brother was actually killed by an ant!' The thought filled him with rage. He had to get justice for his brother, no matter the cost.

With a flicker, he shot onto the platform, appearing before Ye Tian in the blink of an eye. He imdiately unleashed a palm strike at him.

This sudden developnt caught many by surprise. But the very instant Sima Tianhai set foot on the platform, Xiao Wenjie moved. He appeared directly in front of Ye Tian and casually blocked Sima Tianhai's attack.

"Scram!" Xiao Wenjie roared at Sima Tianhai. "How dare you attack a student right in front of ? Do you have a death wish?"

Sima Tianhai glanced at Ye Tian, then said, "He killed my cousin, and now he's killed my own brother. Are you saying I shouldn't go after him? It would only be natural to tear him limb from limb. Dean, you had better not shelter him. Otherwise, when sothing earth-shattering happens, don't say I didn't warn you!"

"Are you trying to threaten ? Do you all really think this Dean is a pushover? I'll say this one more ti: if you dare lay a hand on Ye Tian again, I will kill you myself.

"Do you honestly think I'm afraid of your Sima Clan or the Murong Clan? Compared to the Royal Family, you are nothing! If you think I'm bluffing, you're welco to try . We'll see then if your clan can even continue to exist in this world," Xiao Wenjie roared.

Sima Tianhai was inwardly stunned. 'I never expected Dean Xiao, who's usually as ek as a lamb, to suddenly turn into a ferocious tiger.' The sudden change was difficult to process.

"I will kill the person who murdered my brother, no matter the cost!" Sima Tianhai shouted. "Don't try to scare , Dean. The Sima Clan does not shy away from trouble! If you refuse to hand Ye Tian over, then Linyuan Academy had better prepare for all hell to break loose!"

'I can't stand this guy,' Ye Tian thought, growing more irritated by the second. 'How dare he threaten the Dean? He's acting this arrogant just because of his clan's backing. He's no different from his brother. Does he really think I'm so pushover? I could kill him whenever I want. It would only take one move.'

"Your brother deserved to die! He used such a despicable weapon during our duel, and you have the gall to seek revenge for him? What if he had killed ? Would anyone have avenged ? Once you step onto the Decisive Battlefield, your life is on the line. Since he failed to kill , it was only natural for to kill him.

"You think you're so special just because you're in the Advanced Class? In my eyes, you're a loser too! What kind of skill is relying on your clan's power? You really think you're sobody, don't you!" Ye Tian couldn't help but shout.

Ye Tian's words were incredibly harsh, making Sima Tianhai so furious he almost coughed up blood. He glared at Ye Tian and roared, "You arrogant brat! Since you're so full of yourself, do you dare to accept my challenge? I will tear you limb from limb in front of this entire crowd."

"Hahahaha!" Ye Tian laughed. "Have you no sha? An Advanced Class student, an expert at the Three Vein Realm, challenging a Basic Level student who's only at the One Vein Ninth Layer Realm? Why don't you challenge Dean Xiao instead? You're a complete idiot!"

"Brat, you're lucky the Dean is protecting you today," Sima Tianhai said. "But we'll see about the days to co. The Sima Family will rember this. If Linyuan Academy doesn't give the Sima Clan a satisfactory explanation, then it's hard to say whether the academy will continue to exist in Lin Yuan City!"

With that, he flickered off the platform, vanishing from sight in the blink of an eye. No one knew if he had returned to his quarters for Cultivation or if he was preparing to leave Linyuan Academy for good…
