Soul Emperor Martial God

"Junior Brother Yuen, why are you here?" The Sky-reaching Peak Steward looked with confusion at the young man beside him.

The young man was named Wang Yue.

He was the eighth direct disciple under the Sky-reaching Peak Elder, and also the youngest direct disciple of Elder Tongtian.

The surrounding disciples also looked at Wang Yue in astonishment.

"Oh my, why is Wang Yue here too?"

"The youngest direct disciple of Sky-reaching Peak, also the most favored disciple of Elder Tongtian, is he here to personally teach Xiao Yi a lesson?"

"Impossible, how could such a supreme genius personally act for someone like Xiao Yi?"

At the Heavenly Hidden Academy, every direct disciple was the most dazzling presence.

No wonder the surrounding disciples all showed surprised expressions.

Beside the Sky-reaching Peak Steward, Wang Yue chuckled lightly and said, "It is just that my master instructed me to do something earlier."

"Today, I happened to leave the peak and heard some boastful claims from certain people, so I descended from high above."

As Wang Yue spoke, he cast a disdainful glance at Xiao Yi.

"So that's how it is, you came at the right time." The Sky-reaching Peak Steward smiled and nodded.

"Typically, a mere newcomer isn't worth my attention."

"Of course, I wouldn't bully the weak."

"But since some people don't know their limits, it's good to wake them up."

"Junior Brother Yuen, you came just in time, retrieve the Sky-reaching Jade."

"The Supreme Treasure of Sky-reaching Peak is not something anyone can covet."

Wang Yue nodded, his gaze fixed on Xiao Yi.

"You are Xiao Yi?"

"Three days ago, your name was spreading like wildfire on Sky-reaching Peak."

"Disrespecting elders, scorning my Sky-reaching Peak, notorious for ill deeds."

"To see you today, I only find you to be a Heavenly Extreme Fourth Layer mediocrity, which is truly disappointing."

"Enough with the nonsense." Xiao Yi said coldly.

"I simply ask, do you feel qualified to reclaim the Sky-reaching Jade from me?"

"What do you think?" Wang Yue sneered.

"Then make your move." Xiao Yi's tone was icy.

"Ha." Wang Yue sneered contemptuously, "Originally, a mere entry-level disciple like you, just a Heavenly Extreme Fourth Layer, isn't qualified to fight me."

"But now, my master commanded me, and I'm uninterested in wasting time with you."

"You go first, so you don't miss the chance to strike."

Xiao Yi nodded, "There's one thing you said correctly."

"I'm also uninterested in wasting time."

"However, you can take back those words about being a new disciple."

"I have no further ties with the Heavenly Hidden Academy."

As the words fell, the Blizzard Sword appeared in Xiao Yi's hand out of thin air.

With a flicker, he instantly made his move.

Wang Yue stood with hands clasped, unconcerned by Xiao Yi's attack.

The surrounding disciples shook their heads.

"This battle, no suspense."

"Days ago it was said that Wang Yue already broke through to the Fourth Layer of Saint Realm, stepping into Mid Saint Realm."

"The youngest direct disciple of Sky-reaching Peak, how could a Heavenly Extreme Fourth Layer challenge him."

What the surrounding disciples said was the word 'challenge'.

In their view, Xiao Yi was now challenging Wang Yue.

This was almost a battle without any suspense.

However, in the next second, everyone's expressions changed drastically.

Xiao Yi had already reached Wang Yue, striking out with a sword.

Stars surged within the sword.

The terrifying crushing force instantly caused the space to collapse.

Wang Yue, who had been standing with hands clasped, didn't have time to counterattack and was instantly blasted away by the sword.

Boom... a crashing sound.

Wang Yue's figure directly created a large hole in the ground.

When he stood up, he was in disheveled distress, clothes in tatters.

This was the power of Xiao Yi's full-force strike.

"You seek death." Wang Yue stood up, a flash of killing intent in his eyes.

Boom... an overwhelming aura suddenly erupted from him.

Moreover, the aura was continuously soaring.

In the distance, Deacon Youu squinted at Xiao Yi, "Good lad, just Heavenly Extreme Fourth Layer, yet has power beyond Saint Realm."

Saying this, Deacon Youu glanced at the other deacons nearby and whispered, "Wang Yue has killing intent, the Dao Body Bloodline also suddenly activated."

"Later... stop when necessary."

Deacon Youu heavily said four words.

The several deacons beside nodded, their gaze towards Xiao Yi showed a slight hint of concern.

"The Fourth Layer of Saint Realm?" Xiao Yi looked at Wang Yue, unafraid, instead feeling even colder in aura.

Xiao Yi's gaze slowly lifted to look at the night sky, nodding slightly.

"Tonight's night, quite good."

"The starlight is also bright enough."

In the distance, Fang Shushu and others furrowed their brows, "This guy Xiao Yi, facing Wang Yue now, still has the mood to admire the beautiful night?"

Beside, Cheng Suyan shook her head.

Lih Fengxing also shook his head.

"Why are you shaking your head?" Zhang Nanfeng frowned.

Cheng Suyan said sternly, "Young Master Xiao Yi shows this expression, it proves he is truly angry."

Lih Fengxing nodded.

Boom… a fierce explosion sound in the distance.

The explosion sound suddenly soared to the peak.

Wang Yue's aura also instantly soared to the extreme.

At the same time, in the sky, starlight surged.

Hundreds of beams of starlight descended in an instant.

Xiao Yi's sword suddenly changed.

Swoosh... Xiao Yi's figure flickered, striking out with a sword again.

"How audacious." Wang Yue shouted coldly, punching out.

Bang...

The clash of sword and fist created a crashing sound.

Starlight instantly flooded the fist, and Wang Yue was blasted away again.

"You are a disciple of Sky-reaching Peak, set up the formation." Xiao Yi temporarily halted his movement, saying coldly.

"I'm in a hurry, set up the formation quickly, or I may not give you the chance to strike."

"Arrogant." Wang Yue shouted violently, wielding primordial power.

The Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy suddenly rioted, intricately forming in the air.

The primordial power from Wang Yue poured out as well.

In mere moments, a tremendous formation was instantly set up.

Wang Yue's formation speed was evidently far superior to the previous disciples of Sky-reaching Peak.

Xiao Yi glanced at the formation, nodding, "Alright, the formation is complete, this is your strongest combat power, isn't it?"

"The battle can end now."

Swoosh... Xiao Yi's figure moved again.

This time, not only was there starlight surging on the sword.

Instead, the hundreds of beams of starlight descended from the sky suddenly rioted, moving with him.

"Star Illusion Sword Formation, rise." Xiao Yi shouted lowly.

Hundreds of beams of starlight transformed into countless Illusion Swords, forming their own formation.

The Star Illusion Sword Formation collided instantly with Wang Yue's tremendous formation.

Boom… almost at the moment the formations collided, the whole world turned white.

The intense power immediately swept a range of a thousand miles.

Even the Twelve Peaks trembled.

When the world returned to normal, the power settled, everyone widened their eyes.

Wang Yue, spitting blood, knelt on one knee.

Xiao Yi, also spitting blood, stood proudly.

Clearly, Wang Yue was defeated.

"This… this…"

"How could this be… Wang Yue was defeated?"

The surrounding disciples gasped.

Xiao Yi coldly laughed, glancing at the Sky-reaching Peak Steward, "It seems your direct disciples of Sky-reaching Peak are not qualified to retrieve the Sky-reaching Jade."

"However." Xiao Yi suddenly smiled playfully, "Sky-reaching Jade, I never cared about it."

Swoosh... a flash of light from Xiao Yi's hand, then a casual toss, the Sky-reaching Jade was flung, as if discarding a common item.

"You dare?" Wang Yue's face turned cold, watching the Sky-reaching Jade slowly fall in mid-air, about to reach for it.

At this moment, a cold white sword light flickered by.

The chilling sword edge instantly pressed against his throat.

"I won't let you take it, you won't be able to." Xiao Yi sneered.

The Sky-reaching Peak Steward quickly moved, his figure flickered, instantly catching the Sky-reaching Jade.

But the next second, his gaze tightly fixed on the sharp sword in Xiao Yi's hand, emanating cold white light.

"Mid-grade Holy Artifact?"
