Li Chengtong unjustly disqualifies Ye Yun from the Daluo Sword Fruit competition and traps him and Liu Yiyi in a pavilion. However, Ye Yun sees this as an opportunity to seize all the fruits. As the competition begins, the Ninth Spiritual Vein leader learns Ye Yun is confined, realizing Li Chengtong and the other leaders have conspired against them.

Under the crushing pressure, the outnumbered Ninth Master finally gave in.

He really had no way not to.

Li Chengtong had already left a slot to the Ninth Spiritual Vein; if he still refused to appreciate the favor, then even going to the Supreme Ancestor would be useless.

"Hehe, Ninth Master, our Nine Major Meridians have always shared breath and branches, sharing blessings and hardships alike. The choice you made today is a wise one..."

The Seventh Sect Leader’s expression changed, then he smiled gently and pleasantly.

The Third Leader said sourly, "Yeah, your Ninth Spiritual Vein has gotten two Wushang Disciples of Heaven’s Pride. In the future you’ll naturally be thriving. We’ll all have to curry favor with you then!"

"Everyone is being too modest."

The Ninth Master symbolically cupped his hands with both fists, politely replied with one line, then lowered his head and fell into a sulk.

No matter what.

He still felt he’d let Ye Chen down.

But his strength in Daluo Sword Palace just wasn’t enough, he was all alone and powerless, really had no say.

All he could do was swallow it.

Whoosh, whoosh...

After the Sword Qi of the Nine Major Meridians was all injected into the Secret Realm, after a moment, waves of strange fragrance began to waft out from the entrance of the vortex.

Everyone smelled this peculiar scent.

Their pores all over their bodies relaxed, their spirits surged, they even felt the Sword Intent in their bodies boiling a bit at this moment.

"The Daluo Sword Fruit has ripened."

No one knew who shouted it, but once they heard this voice, everyone got excited.

On the plaza of the Sect Leader’s Main Hall.

As soon as they heard the Daluo Sword Fruit had ripened, the eyes of over a hundred Disciples of Heaven’s Pride all lit up, battle intent roaring through them.

"This Daluo Sword Fruit, I, Lei Zhengxiong, will definitely get one!"

A handsome young man crossed his arms and sneered coldly.

"Lei Zhengxiong, if you want to get this Daluo Sword Fruit, you’d better ask the Sword in my hand, Zhao Zilong, first, don’t you think?"

Another young man shook his head and mocked with a smile.

"Zhao Zilong, you and I are just about the same. If we really fight, who wins and who loses is still up in the air!"

Lei Zhengxiong let out a cold snort.

Scenes like this, with swords drawn and bows bent, were everywhere on the plaza.

Aside from those from the same Spiritual Vein, the Disciples of Heaven’s Pride of the other veins all became each other’s most powerful competitors.

So the gunpowder in the plaza had already been ignited at this moment.

Standing inside the Sect Leader’s Main Hall, Li Chengtong gazed leisurely at those high-spirited youths and said with some emotion, "The younger generation... the future of My Great Luo Sword Palace will all depend on them..."

"Palace Master, where is Liu Yiyi?"

The Ninth Master couldn’t help asking.

Up till now, Liu Yiyi of the Ninth Spiritual Vein still hadn’t shown up on the plaza.

Right now on the plaza.

It was filled with disciples of the other Eight Great Veins; not a single disciple of the Ninth Spiritual Vein was there.

After all.

All the disciples of the Ninth Spiritual Vein had long pinned their hopes on Senior Brother Ye Chen and Liu Yiyi.

"Don’t worry, I’ll send someone to bring Liu Yiyi over right away!"

Li Chengtong’s face was as calm as an ancient well. He waved his hand lightly and perfunctorily replied.

Ninth Master: "..."

If it weren’t for his status and strength being lacking, he’d really want to slap him.

The contest was about to start, and Liu Yiyi still hadn’t come. Li Chengtong was going way too far.

A beam of sword light shot over from afar.

The sword light descended from midair, landed on the plaza, and revealed the figures of a man and a woman.

"Ye Chen is here!"

All the Disciples of Heaven’s Pride present felt their hearts tremble a bit the instant they saw Ye Chen.

Without question.

No one on scene dared to challenge the powerful Ye Chen.

"Hehe, I’m late, but since the contest hasn’t started yet, I’m just in time..."

Ye Yun glanced toward the main hall and smiled faintly.

Damn!

How did this kid get out?

Li Chengtong’s gaze sharpened, waves crashing inside his heart.

The other Heads of the Eight Great Veins, upon suddenly seeing Ye Chen appear, were also shocked speechless.

How did that powerful Formation at the West Pavilion fail to trap these two brats?

What accident happened?

Li Chengtong’s figure flickered and he appeared at the door of the main hall.

"Ye Chen, why are you here?"

"As the senior brother of the Ninth Spiritual Vein, I naturally have the right to take part in this Daluo Sword Fruit contest..."

Ye Yun smiled lightly.

Ye Chen?

Liu Yiyi?

The Ninth Master also came to the entrance of the main hall. When he saw the two of them appear together, he was shocked and delighted.

"Could it be... the Supreme Ancestor secretly helped them?"

A thought surfaced in the Ninth Master’s mind.

In his heart.

Only a transcendent figure like the Supreme Ancestor could break the Formation of the West Pavilion.

And only the Supreme Ancestor could ignore the authority of Palace Master Li Chengtong.

Li Chengtong stared at Ye Yun, his eyes almost spitting fire.

Three days ago, when he announced in the West Pavilion that Ye Chen had lost his qualification, it had only been said in secret, in a way that couldn’t see the light of day.

Now that there were so many people watching, he absolutely couldn’t say again that Ye Chen was unqualified to participate.

If he did.

He’d be slapping the Supreme Ancestor in the face.

Even as Palace Master of Daluo Sword Palace, he didn’t have the guts to challenge the authority of a God King Supreme Ancestor.

"Fine, you’re qualified too."

Li Chengtong took a deep breath and silently nodded.

"Many thanks, Palace Master, for your great sense of justice, haha!"

Ye Yun looked at Li Chengtong’s stiff face and couldn’t help laughing.

"Presumptuous!

Ye Chen, how dare you be so rude to the Palace Master!"

The Seventh Sect Leader shouted angrily.

"What did I say?

Master Teaching, I only laughed a couple of times at random. Don’t just casually put a big hat on me, or the consequences will be very serious, you know?"

Ye Yun spread his hands, smiling carelessly.

Seeing Brother Yun’s smile, Liu Yiyi’s smile grew even brighter.

The more Brother Yun smiled, the more it meant he was getting ready to release the anger in his heart.

These people were probably all going to cry later.

"Ye Chen, you’re too arrogant!"

The Seventh Sect Leader shook with rage, itching to slap this arrogant brat to death.

"Ignore him; the Supreme Ancestor is still watching this place..."

Li Chengtong hurriedly sent a voice transmission to the Seventh Sect Leader.

The Seventh Sect Leader’s expression turned solemn. He stepped back and forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart.

Li Chengtong kept his face taut, his gaze passing over Ye Yun’s shoulder to the Disciples of Heaven’s Pride of the Nine Major Meridians on the plaza. He took a deep breath, flung his hand, and a Sword Stone landed on the plaza.

"This is the Sword Shadow Stone?"

Ye Yun glanced at it twice and muttered thoughtfully.

As long as you inject your Primordial Spirit into it, a Sword Shadow Avatar will form in the world inside the stone.

This Sword Shadow Avatar would have the same Sword Dao cultivation base as the main body.

Anyone could inject their Primordial Spirit into it to form a Sword Shadow Avatar, and all Sword Shadow Avatars would start with the same cultivation base.

So with this Sword Shadow Stone, anyone’s level in the Sword Dao could be directly tested.

This Daluo Sword Fruit contest would also be carried out through this Sword Shadow Stone.

Ye Yun walked over.

Standing beside the Sword Shadow Stone, gazing at all the Disciples of Heaven’s Pride of the Eight Great Veins opposite him, he smiled faintly.

"Ye Chen, it’s not your turn yet!"

A Disciple of Heaven’s Pride looked at Ye Yun and shouted.

Ye Yun’s face was full of smiles. He slapped the Sword Shadow Stone with a "pa" and said calmly, "Everyone, I’m taking all nine Daluo Sword Fruits! So, I’m challenging all of you. Don’t hesitate, come at me together!"

Challenge everyone?

The Disciples of Heaven’s Pride on the plaza were all stunned for a moment.

When it came to this guy Ye Chen, they indeed had no confidence one-on-one, but in a group fight they definitely weren’t scared.

One hundred and one versus one—how hard could that be?

"Ye Chen, stop fooling around and get back!"

Li Chengtong shouted angrily.

"I’m serious."

Ye Yun turned around, smiled slightly at Li Chengtong, and said, "If you old geezers are not convinced, then inject your Primordial Spirits into the Sword Shadow Stone too and join this group fight!"

"Presumptuous!"

Li Chengtong was furious and slapped at Ye Yun.
