On this continent, the arena fell into a deathly silence, all disciples and elders gazed dumbfounded at the upright figure, their hearts pounding wildly.
Because the strength Xiao Ye displayed was simply too exaggerated.
They had long anticipated that Xiao Ye, upon reaching the King Martial Realm and forming the King Body, would beco incredibly terrifying; yet, they had not expected him to be so fearso. To defeat Fan Li, a genius disciple of Xuanzi Hall, with one move right after reaching the King Martial Realm was sothing even the devilish disciples of the Main Hall at this ti could not surpass, and possibly, they were even inferior to Xiao Ye.
Of course, only the Sub-Hall Elders who had reached the Emperor Martial Realm knew that Xiao Ye was able to defeat Fan Li in one move not because Xiao Ye had beco so powerful that he could utterly overpower him, but because both disciples had displayed their strongest abilities, abandoning all defenses and unnecessary moves, aiming to determine the winner in one strike.
Xiao Ye was stronger than Fan Li, and naturally could conclude the victory in one move, but this was enough to demonstrate how formidable Xiao Ye was.
"Cough, cough!" Tian Jiu’s old face, red with excitent, gave a dry cough to bring everyone back to reality and to their senses.
"Xiao Ye, our Earth Hall’s assessnt is still paused because of your participation, you have already defeated Fan Li, please continue with the assessnt," Tian Jiu said to Xiao Ye with a smile, his attitude much kinder than before, speaking to Xiao Ye in a completely friendly tone.
"Yes, Xiao Ye, continue with the assessnt, so as not to waste ti." Wu Tong, along with eight other elders, approached amicably, their deanor very relaxed, as if conversing with a peer, lacking the previous condescending attitude.
You see, among Taiyi Palace’s Four Main Halls, Earth Hall only ranks second to Heavenly Hall. For an Earth Hall Elder of Emperor Martial Realm to show such an attitude to a disciple is extrely rare.
From this, it was clear how highly they now regarded Xiao Ye.
This was also normal; among the Four Main Halls, Earth Hall had always been suppressed by the genius disciples of Heavenly Hall. Now that they finally had a disciple who might surpass them and who had caused such a sensation even before entering Earth Hall — overshadowing Heavenly Hall’s lilight — how could they not be excited?
"Alright!" Xiao Ye smiled and nodded, equally thrilled by his current strength, and then followed the Earth Hall’s Elders, moving through the air towards the assessnt area.
Only at this mont did the entire continent erupt in a thunderous uproar, yet silently, the disciples were grumbling.
With Xiao Ye’s current performance, what need was there for further assessnt? He could directly advance into Earth Hall, leaving the ten Law Enforcent Elders speechless with amazent.
"Hmph, just because a good disciple appeared, so what if the talent is fierce? Without growth, they won’t be able to contend with our Sub-Hall’s disciples." At this ti, an elder overseeing the Heavenly Hall’s assessnt snorted coldly, feeling very uncomfortable inside.
Although he looked down on Earth Hall, he couldn’t help but admit that Xiao Ye’s performance had shocked even him.
"Senior Brother Xiao Ye!"
"Senior Brother Xiao Ye!"
...
As Xiao Ye flew back into the mid-air of the assessnt area, the fifteen outstanding disciples of Xuanzi Hall showed awe on their faces and then retreated in all directions, yielding the ten islands.
It was a joke to contest against Xiao Ye after even their best talent, Fan Li, had lost. It was better to graciously give way. Regarding the call of ’senior brother’, in a Sect where power dictated status, naturally whoever was stronger earned the title.
Xiao Ye, with a smile on his lips, effortlessly claid an island under the watchful eyes of all.
Only after Xiao Ye’s spot was secured did the remaining fifteen disciples dare to carry on fighting, now vying for the other available spots. They didn’t dare contest for the island previously occupied by Fan Li.
Despite Fan Li being defeated by Xiao Ye in one move, he was still not soone they could contend with.
As the assessnt for Earth Hall proceeded normally, the evaluations for Heavenly Hall and Xuanzi Hall continued elsewhere on the continent. One storm had passed, but still, people sotis looked towards Xiao Ye and whispered among themselves.
Due to the severe blow and losing to a new disciple, Fan Li lost all face, and without even greeting the elders of Earth Hall, he slinkly left this continent.
"Hmph!" Xiao Ye watched Fan Li’s extrely embarrassed departure and couldn’t help but snort coldly, a chilly light flashing in his eyes.
"However," Xiao Ye thought to himself, "Fan Li said he approached intentionally because one of the devilish disciples from the Main Hall was interested in Little White, I wonder which ranked devilish disciple it was." Xiao Ye was enveloped in dark thoughts.
Such actions were unlike those from the previous devilish disciples, Xiao Ye guessed his origin must not be simple, and trouble would certainly lie ahead.
"But never mind, now that I’m qualified to enter Earth Hall, even if that devilish disciple of the Main Hall is powerful, he’s still only at the King Martial Realm and can’t possibly challenge an Emperor Realm Elder of Earth Hall," Xiao Ye shook his head, dismissing further thoughts.
His sole focus now was to improve his strength, aiming to soon qualify to traverse the vast Central State to find Bing Ya.
"My cultivation has just reached the King Martial Realm, and I still don’t know what’s different about this realm," Xiao Ye muttered to himself, then closed off his senses, sitting cross-legged on the island, beginning to comprehend the King Martial Realm.
First, Xiao Ye felt that his Physical Body seed to contain terrifying power; rely raising his hand could produce imnse oppressive force, each inch of skin emitted a luster like white jade, with might beyond Xiao Ye’s imagination.
"This is probably the King Body," Xiao Ye thought, filled with anticipation. "Once I fully cultivate the Ten Thousand Refining Golden Body’s Third Layer and the King Martial Dominating Body Combat Techniques to perfection and combine them with the King Body, I wonder how much power can be unleashed?"
Then, Xiao Ye explored his Grotto Heaven and found, as he suspected, his Grotto Heaven had not transford into King Realm but was sothing in between, seemingly requiring a special Secret Technique to convert.
This did not surprise Xiao Ye at all; when he initially opened his Grotto Heaven, he also needed the cooperation of a Secret Technique, and Earth Hall certainly possessed this technique.
An hour later, everything settled down, and the ten spots for entry into Earth Hall were finally confird.
