The God of Sky and Earth - Chapter 722: Will You Dare to Battle?

“Young man, it’s better not to be too arrogant,” said the wise old man. “Remember, there are always people more knowledgeable and skilled than you.”

Elder Bing Fu couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief. His expression also calmed down. With his status, there was no need for him to be bothered by a young fellow like this.

Although this young child possesses extraordinary talent worthy of the Sacred Mountain’s attention, if he continues to show such disregard for respect, it is clear that he holds hostility towards the Sacred Mountain, and thus becomes an enemy.

A formidable enemy with such remarkable talent, once grown, would become a threat to the Sacred Mountain, a threat that wouldn’t hesitate to be extinguished in its infancy.

As the words were spoken, an unseen aura radiated from Elder Bing Fu, enveloping Su Yi in its midst.

Under the influence of this unseen aura, the temperature around plummeted abruptly, and the air seemed to freeze in an instant.

The invisible aura that surged caused a drastic change in the expressions of the Green Emperor and Xi Wuqing. This kind of aura made their hearts tremble and reminded them of the formidable strength possessed by the Elder of the Sacred Mountain, surpassing both of them by far.

“Bing Fu, did you not understand, or are you just more concerned about your Sacred Mountain disciples?”

Palace Master Gu Yue’s voice, filled with age and wisdom, gently echoed. An invisible aura began to spread, instantly warding off the chilling breath and causing Elder Bing Fu to change color. With the intervention of Old Man Gu Yue, there was simply no way to deal with this young lad today.

“Hmph, using age to bully the young, what kind of skill is that?”

Su Yi looked at Elder Bing Fu and thought to himself, “The people of this Sacred Mountain are quite something. If Palace Master Gu Yue hadn’t been here today, I’m afraid Bing Fu would have shamelessly attacked me without any hesitation.”

Upon being scolded by Su Yi’s words face to face, Bing Fu’s complexion turned pale and he became completely gloomy.

“It seems that something is not quite right!”

“Is there any history between Yi Su and the Sacred Mountain?”

“It’s quite arrogant, even daring to offend the elders of Sacred Mountain.”

The surrounding crowd was abuzz with discussions, and many people were filled with astonishment.

“Elder, may I speak?”

Suddenly, from within the crowd, Ouyang Jinwei stepped forward. She took a few steps closer and respectfully greeted Elder Bing Fu.

“But why not?”

Elder Bing Fu was feeling a bit embarrassed, but upon hearing that, he nodded and said to Ouyang Jinwei.

Ouyang Jinwei’s gaze immediately fell upon Su Yi. She glanced at him faintly, then continued speaking to Elder Bing Fu, “This Su Yi, relying on the protection of the Yutian Palace, disregards our Sacred Mountain and even disrespects you, Elder Bing Fu. As an adult, you naturally have more important matters to attend to and have no interest in dealing with a junior like him. However, as disciples of Sacred Mountain, we cannot tolerate anyone disrespecting our mountain. Therefore, as a humble disciple, I dare to request permission from you, Elder, to challenge Su Yi in order to uphold the reputation of our Sacred Mountain.”

When Ouyang Jinwei finished speaking, numerous gazes in the room suddenly shifted and became intrigued.

“Ouyang Jinwei, she actually wants to have a battle with Yi Su!”

“It seems like there’s a lively sight to see!”

Suddenly, the surrounding voices were filled with excitement. Those who enjoyed watching lively scenes were eager for some excitement to unfold.

Moreover, this was a rare spectacle from the Sacred Mountain and Yutian Palace, hardly ever seen before.

“Ouyang Jinwei, it seems like she is a direct disciple of the Sacred Mountain!”

In the crowd, among the disciples of the Divine Sword School, there was a glimpse of Gong Qi. Her eyebrows arched slightly, and a slight curve formed at the corner of her mouth.

“Not bad, this Ouyang Jinwei is said to be very powerful and holds a high position in the Sacred Mountain. She is also the daughter of Ouyang Yuanfeng, the City Master of Central Region. She is the sister of Ouyang Mingjie, who was severely injured by Yi Su!”

Ying Qianqian said, as a disciple of the Sacred Mountain, the Divine Sword School had also received some news, which she kept in her heart.

“This Jinwei Eu Yang is very scheming. It seems she wants to avenge her younger brother!”

Liu Yunchuan said calmly, his gaze fixed on the young man outside the City Master’s mansion at the moment, and said, “A third-stage Soul Tamer with Heavenly Grade-level soul, I wonder what his combat power is like?”

“You’ll understand just by looking.”

Situ Muyang stood on his tiptoes, looking ahead with great interest.

“Wanted to have a battle…”

When Ouyang Jinwei’s words fell, Su Yi’s gaze also showed some signs of astonishment. This woman actually wanted to have a battle with him.

Listening to Ouyang Jinwei’s words, Ouyang Yuanfeng, Kuang Guilan, and others’ gazes fluctuated slightly as they looked towards Su Yi. They didn’t say much, seemingly wanting to know Su Yi’s attitude.

“This…”

Elder Bing Fu pondered for a moment. It wouldn’t hurt to have Ouyang Jinwei make a move, at least they would be able to know the extent of this young man’s strength.

With Ouyang Jinwei’s strength, it is unlikely that she would lose even if she took a step back. And if she could win, it would not only save her own reputation but also restore the dignity of Sacred Mountain. It would be a win-win situation.

“Palace Master Gu Yue, this misunderstanding is actually the result of a misunderstanding between the younger generation. Ouyang Jinwei is also Ouyang Mingjie’s sister. She wants to have a friendly match with Yi Su. Matters concerning the younger generation should be resolved by the younger generation themselves. What do you think about this?”

With a thought in his mind, Elder Bing Fu immediately looked towards Old Man Gu Yue and said, a smile once again appearing on his face.

“This little girl is quite young, but her skills are impressive.”

Old Man Gu Yue squinted his eyes slightly, gazing at Ouyang Jinwei for a moment before softly speaking. Then, he looked towards Su Yi by his side.

How could Old Man Gu Yue not see it? Ouyang Jinwei was probably not an ordinary person. Looking at Bing Fu’s confident expression, he knew that Ouyang Jinwei must possess extraordinary abilities.

But on this day, although Yutian Palace was not afraid of Sacred Mountain, Old Man Gu Yue also knew in his heart that he couldn’t completely disregard the dignity of Sacred Mountain.

After all, this is Central Region, the territory of Sacred Mountain.

If Yi Su were truly a disciple of Yutian Palace, then there would be no need to say anything. Yutian Palace would be enough to face Sacred Mountain without fear.

As the story goes, Su Yi was not truly a disciple of Yutian Palace, and Old Man Gu Yue had some concerns at this moment.

But if the two were to battle, and if Yi Su were to be defeated, Sacred Mountain might not show any mercy, and Yi Su would suffer humiliation.

Although Yi Su’s detected soul quality was there, and he was a Soul Tamer of the initial stage of the third rank, this was still only the result of the assessment, and it was different from his true combat power.

Undoubtedly, Ouyang Jinwei and Bing Fu must have already learned about Su Yi’s assessment results. They dared to initiate a challenge, indicating that they naturally have absolute confidence.

After hesitating for a moment, Old Man Gu Yue gazed at Su Yi and said, “Yi Su, you should make the decision for yourself.”

Old Man Gu Yue could only let Yi Su make the decision for himself.

Su Yi’s gaze remained calm. The words spoken by Old Man Gu Yue just now, emphasizing the exceptional nature of Ouyang Jinwei, were a deliberate hint to pay attention to her in secret.

Feeling the intentionally restrained aura emanating from Ouyang Jinwei at this moment, Su Yi couldn’t help but realize that this woman must be extraordinary.

In an instant, many eyes in the crowd were fixed on Su Yi, waiting for his answer, unsure if he would dare to battle Ouyang Jinwei, the esteemed direct disciple of Sacred Mountain.

The atmosphere around instantly fell into a brief silence, but the Green Emperor and Xi Wuqing paid no mind to it at all.

And in this silence, Ouyang Jinwei gracefully took a few steps forward, with a hint of arrogance and a cool demeanor in her gaze. She looked at Su Yi, her lips slightly parted, revealing a row of pearl-like teeth. Her clear and crisp voice sounded cold yet pleasant as she said, “I am Ouyang Jinwei of Sacred Mountain. If you dare not fight, I won’t force you. Perhaps it would be best for you to leave and there may be no need for you to participate in the Saint Martial Assembly!”

As Su Yi gazed at Ouyang Jinwei, there was a slight flicker in his eyes.

Today, with the support of Old Man Gu Yue from Yutian Palace, but now, if he didn’t agree to the fight, not only would he lose his own reputation, but he would also bring shame to Yutian Palace and Old Man Gu Yue.

Moreover, facing the disciples of Sacred Mountain, how could Su Yi be afraid?

The goal of participating in the Saint Martial Assembly this time is to sweep through the heroes, especially the disciples of Sacred Mountain.

If he couldn’t even defeat the younger generation of Sacred Mountain, how could he talk about stepping foot on the mountain in the future? Besides, although Ouyang Jinwei in front of him was remarkable, she was absolutely not the leader of the younger generation at the peak of Sacred Mountain!

With this thought, Su Yi’s heart also surged with a strong sense of battle. He looked directly at Ouyang Jinwei and said, “As you wish, then let’s battle!”

Su Yi’s voice, though lacking in vigor, still rang out loudly.

Immediately, a slight commotion could be heard all around, and countless gazes secretly shifted.

“This time, the underdog and the noble Ouyang Jinwei from Sacred Mountain are about to have an early battle, who will win and who will lose, no one knows!”

“This Yi Su is extraordinary, he is a Soul Tamer at the initial stage of the third rank!”

“Ouyang Jinwei is not simple either. It is said that on the Sacred Mountain, she also has a prestigious reputation and holds a very high ranking!”

“It looks like this battle will be very exciting, regardless of who wins or loses!”

“I can’t wait for the Saint Martial Assembly to begin. I’m going to have a pre-fight before it even starts!”

A series of exclamations erupted as Su Yi accepted the challenge, leaving many people excited and curious.

Upon seeing Yi Su’s acceptance, his eyes showed no hesitation. Old Man Gu Yue, Deputy Palace Master Guan Lan, and others also felt slightly surprised, sensing that this young fellow seemed to be full of confidence. Putting aside the outcome, he displayed no fear in front of the Sacred Mountain. This state of mind and courage were not possessed by ordinary people.

“You may not win later, but just the fact that you dare to accept the challenge has already impressed me. However, since we are going to battle, let’s make it more interesting by adding some stakes!”

Ouyang Jinwei gazed at Su Yi, his eyes filled with a cold and arrogant demeanor. His lips slightly curled, as he glanced at Su Yi and continued, “Thinking that you’re protected by the Yutian Palace, you disregard everything. Little do you know that even with some talent, you are nothing more than a laughable clown. If we battle, if you lose, you must kneel and kowtow to me three times. If I lose, you can determine the stakes!”

With a gentle but cold and arrogant demeanor, Ouyang Jinwei’s voice echoed, showing no regard for Su Yi.

This person severely injured her younger brother, disregarding the Sacred Mountain, and daring to accept the challenge. That gives us a perfect opportunity to teach him a lesson.

As for the outcome, Ouyang Jinwei was confident. Being a relatively unknown disciple from the Overlord Sect, even if he possessed some talent as a third-ranked Soul Tamer, she had absolute confidence in herself.

“Will Su Yi dare to accept this challenge?”

Listening to Ouyang Jinwei’s words, people around were secretly discussing. This bet may seem insignificant, but in the presence of everyone during the Saint Martial Assembly in Central Region, if he loses and kowtows three times, afterwards, this Yi Su may find it difficult to hold his head up in the entire Central Region.
