Today, Ye Qing's cultivation technique and martial skills had advanced to Profound rank,
possessing boundless power that could sweep through the Broken Blade Sect's outer sect.
However, the only flaw was that Ye Qing did not have a Profound rank magic artifact on him. The
high-grade yellow-rank magic artifact, the Scarlet Fire Fang, was lacking in power. On the other
hand, he had already used the Ruyi Golden Cudgel once, less than a month apart. If he forced
himself to use it again, there was a high chance he would be reduced to ashes!
As a Grandmaster Blacksmith, Ye Qing was well versed in the art of blacksmithing. Suddenly, he
thought of a solution. The supreme dragon blood flowed in his veins. Using the dragon blood to
refine the Scarlet Fire Fang would improve its quality!
Taking out a dagger, Ye Qing cut his finger and a drop of golden blood dripped onto the Scarlet Fire Fang.
Zizi!
The Scarlet Fire Fang vibrated violently, emitting a bewitching light. The artifact spirit inside seemed
to be cheering in joy. Nourished by the supreme dragon blood, the Scarlet Fire Fang immediately
transformed, exuding the oppressive aura of a Divine Dragon.
A cup of tea's time later, the Scarlet Fire Fang stopped vibrating. That drop of golden blood had
completely merged with the Scarlet Fire Fang, causing it to undergo an earth-shattering
transformation, directly upgrading to a low-grade Profound rank magic artifact!
"Good treasure, I'll call you Scarlet Dragon's Fang from now on!"
Ye Qing was secretly delighted. With the Scarlet Dragon's Fang, not to mention Broken Blade Sect's
outer sect disciples, even inner sect disciples wouldn't be able to withstand half a move from him.
… …
The next day, Broken Blade Sect's outer sect was buzzing with activity. Many outer sect disciples
headed to the martial stage to participate in the outer sect competition.
Every year, the outer sect would hold a large-scale competition. As long as one stood out in the
competition and entered the top twenty, they would be directly promoted to an inner sect disciple.
Ye Qing made his way to the outer sect martial stage and saw a sea of people. More than ten
thousand outer sect disciples were gathered together, the noisy chatter continued for a long time,
most of them were discussing who would be the champion.
Among the crowd, a one-armed young man saw Ye Qing and his eyes were filled with fear.
The one-armed youth was Tuoba Yu. Yesterday, he had asked his sworn brother, Huangfu Tian, to
step forward and avenge him.
In Tuoba Yu's opinion, with Huangfu Tian appearing, Ye Qing would definitely be doomed. But now,
Ye Qing was completely unharmed, and Huangfu Tian hadn't shown himself since the beginning!
"What's going on? Did Huangfu Tian fail? That can't be! "
Tuoba Yu's face was filled with anxiety. He had a bad premonition that Huangfu Tian might be in
trouble!
Ye Qing scanned the Martial Arts Practice Field and stared at Tuoba Yu. He sneered in his heart
and slowly walked over.
"Tuoba Yu, are you curious why Huangfu Tian didn't come?"
"You … What did you do to Huangfu Tian?"
Tuoba Yu couldn't hide the fear in his heart. Even his voice was trembling.
"Kill him."
"Killed … killed?!"
Tuoba Yu was scared silly. How could Huangfu Tian, a master of Pulse Opening second stage, be killed so easily?
"Yes, he wanted to kill me. Do you think I'll show mercy?"
Ye Qing stared coldly at Tuoba Yu, releasing a terrible murderous intent.
Tuoba Yu was so scared that his face turned pale. He took three steps back, but still couldn't stand
steadily and suddenly fell to the ground.
The reason why Huangfu Tian went to deal with Ye Qing was because he was instructed by Tuoba
Yu. Now that Huangfu Tian was dead, Tuoba Yu seemed to have seen his tragic end.
"Brother Yu, what's wrong with you?"
Lan Mu 'er stood beside Tuoba Yu. Seeing Tuoba Yu fall, she suddenly exclaimed. She had never
seen Tuoba Yu in such a sorry state since she knew him.
"I'm … I'm fine."
Tuoba Yu swallowed a mouthful of saliva and forced himself to calm down. He grabbed Lan Mu 'er's hand and walked into the crowd.
Not long after, Tuoba Yu walked in front of a young man in an animal skin coat. His attitude was
humble as he whispered something.
The young man in the animal skin coat nodded. His cold eyes swept over Ye Qing, revealing a look
of contempt.
"Don't worry, taking care of a Pulse Opening Stage One trash is easy. With me here, he won't dare to touch you."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Wang!"
Tuoba Yu's face was filled with joy. The young man in the animal skin coat was called Wng Lei. He
was the number one disciple in the outer sect, and his hands were everywhere!
Usually, Tuoba Yu and Wng Lei's relationship was not bad. He often fawned over Wng Lei and gave
him all the treasures he had. Now, with Wng Lei's words, Tuoba Yu was finally relieved.
In the martial arts arena, the noisy chatter gradually disappeared. An old man in luxurious clothes
walked over. He was the outer sect's Elder Qian. He was in charge of this outer sect's competition.
"Everyone, the outer sect competition is about to begin. Everyone, quiet down. Participants, please
enter the waiting area!"
Elder Qian's powerful voice spread throughout the martial arts arena. Everyone was excited. There
were more than ten thousand people in the arena, but only about three thousand disciples were
participating in the outer sect competition.
The outer sect competition was very dangerous. There was a chance of dying in the process, so
not everyone was willing to participate.
"All participants, please enter the arena. Next will be the knockout stage. You will need to defeat
your opponents. Only one hundred people will remain."
Elder Qian announced the rules of the competition. The outer sect competition officially began.
More than three thousand outer sect disciples gathered in the arena.
Fortunately, the arena was quite spacious and could accommodate more than three thousand
people at the same time. The knockout stage was a free-for-all. Only one hundred people could
advance in the end. If they were blasted out of the competition area or died during the competition, they would be eliminated.
In the arena, Tuoba Yu's cold eyes swept over Ye Qing. He was fearless. Originally, he was afraid
of Ye Qing, but with Wng Lei backing him up, his courage immediately grew.
Wng Lei's cultivation was at Pulse Opening Stage Three, and he was recognized as the number one
genius in the outer sect!
"Let the competition begin!"
In the martial arts arena, Elder Qian waved his sleeves and a free-for-all broke out. More than three
thousand outer sect disciples, who didn't want to stand out and advance to the top one hundred?
Tuoba Yu stood beside Wng Lei. The outer sect disciples nearby didn't dare to get close to him.
After all, he was also an outer sect genius with great strength.
"Ye Qing, you cut off one of my arms. You will definitely pay a heavy price. Just you wait!"
Tuoba Yu's voice was cold and filled with killing intent. In the past, he was forced to break his arm in
the battle with Ye Qing. Although he couldn't take revenge with his own hands, with Wng Lei here,
Ye Qing's ending would be miserable!
"You want to take revenge? Then I'll fulfill your wish!"
Ye Qing's footsteps were mystical as he executed the Gale Godstep Steps. His speed was
unbelievably fast.
"Whoosh!"
A gust of wind swept past. In a flash, Ye Qing was in front of Tuoba Yu. With a point of his finger,
the Dark low-class martial skill, Annihilation Tide, exploded into a dark energy tide.
"Senior Brother Wang, save me!"
Tuoba Yu's face was pale, and half of his body was cold. The dark energy released by Ye Qing was
too terrifying. He knew that he couldn't defend against it, so he could only rely on Wng Lei.
"Stop!"
Wang Lei reacted and shouted, trying to stop Ye Qing. However, the dark energy had already been
released. Wng Lei was shocked and didn't have the confidence to defend against it.
"Die!"
Ye Qing's eyes turned cold. How could the Annihilation Tide, a Dark low-class martial skill, be
blocked so easily?
