Chapter 664 Duel Arena
Yang Wudao took the lead towards outside the Yang Family Mansion. Xiao Ye, Yang Qianfan, Yang Qianyu, and Yang Xuan, four people, followed behind him.
"Let's set off, hurry up and follow to watch!" The Yang family boiled with excitement, as a large number of Martial Artists rushed out, tightly following the quintet.
This duel was related to the future fate of their Yang family, and of course, they wouldn't want to miss watching it. Moreover, this was a confrontation between the Young Talents of the Ten Great Families of Barbarian Valley City, guaranteed to be absolutely thrilling. Perhaps they could even gain some insights from it.
With this mentality, virtually all warriors of the Yang family mobilized.
The same was true for other families; today was destined to be the most lively day in Barbarian Valley City.
Xiao Ye and the three Heavenly Prides of the Yang family followed behind Yang Wudao, rushing towards the most central area of Barbarian Valley City.
Barbarian Valley City was experiencing heavy snowfall at this time. The feather-like snowflakes would automatically melt into water as soon as they approached Xiao Ye and the other three Heavenly Prides, a sign of the strong Physical Body and vigorous Blood Qi.
The severe weather like that of Barbarian Valley City posed absolutely no hindrance to them.
"Brother Xiao, I've heard my brother mention you, your Physical Body is incredibly strong!" Just then, a deep voice came from beside Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye was slightly stunned, then turned his head to see Yang Qianfan's eyes sparkling intensely as he stared at him.
"If it weren't for the unrest in Barbarian Valley City this time, I believe we could definitely become friends!" Yang Qianfan continued.
His temperament was similar to Yang Qianyu's, both willing to make friends with Martial Artists who had strong Physical Bodies.
Moreover, the strength displayed by Xiao Ye had already made him regard him as a strong contender at his own level.
Hearing this, Xiao Ye slightly smiled and said, "Thinking so now is not too late. After this competition of Young Talents, once your Yang family secures first place, we can indeed share a joyous drink!"
Xiao Ye's confident tone caught Yang Qianfan off-guard, who then burst into laughter shortly after.
"My brother tells me that Brother Xiao has an extraordinary demeanor and exceptional strength. Seeing you today confirms it indeed. Well, let's wait for our Yang family to take first place, and then we'll enjoy that drink together!" said Yang Qianfan.
Yang Wudao, walking ahead, overheard the exchanges between the younger generation and couldn't help but show a relieved smile.
In his eyes, Xiao Ye was a Heavenly Pride with terrifying potential. His future achievements would undoubtedly be limitless. Their two sons becoming friends with Xiao Ye would surely bring great benefits to the Yang family.
Barbarian Valley City was immensely large. After Yang Wudao led Xiao Ye and the other three for two hours, a massive Duel Arena finally appeared in front of them.
The place was densely packed with people, buzzing with noise that shook the heavens, all were Martial Artists from Barbarian Valley City who came to enjoy the spectacle.
"The people from the Yang family have arrived!" At this moment, someone shouted, and the crowd suddenly fell silent. Gazes turned towards them, most converging on Xiao Ye.
The reason was simple.
Yang Qianfan, Yang Qianyu, and Yang Xuan were all well-known Heavenly Prides of the Yang family, already familiar faces. Only Xiao Ye looked relatively new.
"The Han Family has also arrived!" At that moment, another shout rose, and the Martial Artists in the arena immediately looked in the direction of the shout.
The Han Family!
Hearing this word, Xiao Ye clearly felt that Yang Qianfan and Yang Qianyu's expressions turned cold.
Among the ten great families of Barbarian Valley City, the Han Family and Yang Family had the worst relationship, something he had also heard about. Moreover, it was said that after the Han Family learned about the discovery of the Snow Lotus Sky Fruit by the Yang Family, they deliberately spread the word.
This led to the nine major families coming together to pressure the Yang Family, resulting in the young generation of the ten great families facing off in the current duel.
Even the injury that Yang Wudao suffered was reportedly inflicted in secret by the Han Family Master.
Xiao Ye looked up and saw a crowd in the distance parting to form a pathway, through which a middle-aged man with a sinister look, accompanied by several young men and women, approached.
No need to say more, this middle-aged man was undoubtedly the Han Family Master, Han Ying.
As the Han Family's group approached, the arena once again fell into silence, and the expressions of many martial artists turned strange, an invisible tension spreading through the area.
After seeing Yang Wudao, a barely noticeable sneer appeared on Han Ying's lips.
"Brother Yang, our Barbarian Valley City is freezing, and you are still injured; you really didn't need to come here yourself. After all, your Yang Family is bound to lose in the end," Han Ying said with a smile, but the sarcasm in his words was unmistakable.
Hearing these mocking words, Yang Wudao couldn't help but tremble with anger and said loudly: "Han Ying, don't be too proud too soon. It's still uncertain which family will be among the top three in this duel!"
"Is that so?" Han Ying coldly chuckled upon hearing this, "Do you think your Yang Family can bring out a Heavenly Pride who can contend with Han Tian?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Ye looked towards Han Ying's back and immediately spotted Han Feng, who he had a conflict with before, sneering at him.
Xiao Ye glanced over and his gaze finally rested on a short-haired youth.
This youth had a defiant look on his face, filled with arrogance, and barely deigned to give the Yang Family's martial artists another glance.
"Brother Xiao, this is Han Tian from the Han Family, also Han Feng's elder brother. During this duel, Han Tian will likely hold considerable hostility towards you; you must be careful," Yang Qianyu came over and said quietly.
Xiao Ye nodded.
Seeing Han Feng's demeanor, it was clear he would incite Han Tian to be ruthless towards him during the Heavenly Pride confrontation, something Xiao Ye had already anticipated.
"Take action? I, Xiao Ye, might not necessarily lose to you," Xiao Ye said upon seeing Han Tian's arrogant demeanor, and withdrew his gaze after a glance.
In the path of Martial Arts, the most taboo is arrogance and overlooking an opponent. People like Han Tian, even if they achieve some success temporarily, will halt their progress in the future.
For such individuals, Xiao Ye had no thought of even treating them as opponents.
"Humph, we'll see the real skill in the duel!" At this moment, Yang Wudao glared at Han Ying, flung his sleeve, and walked into the Duel Arena first.
"Has Brother Qian Fan's physical body not broken through yet?" Seeing Yang Wudao's frustrated look, Xiao Ye shook his head and followed him in.
Yang Qianfan, Yang Qianyu, Yang Xuan, and other warriors of the Yang Family followed one by one.
The Duel Arena was enormously large, with a spacious ring and circular, tiered seating.
At this moment, there were already quite a few martial artists sitting in the spectator seats, clearly organized by area, evidently from the other nine families of Barbarian Valley City.
"Two hours before the Heavenly Pride competition starts, I'll try to see if I can break through my King Body to Great Success!" Following behind Yang Wudao, Xiao Ye sat down and immediately closed his eyes.
