chapter 22 : What a pretense!

Sampson Xiao shook his head and said: "I was going to beat you up again, but then I thought, you don't deserve it!" After speaking, he patted the dust on his buttocks and then turned around to leave! Two days later, at night. Julian Ye sat on the stone steps in front of the main hall, his hands propping up his head, looking at the starry sky. Tonight was a full moon, and around the moon were countless stars. Looking at that piece of starry sky, he was full of yearning! Unfortunately, he was still unable to go to the depths of the starry sky by sword. He was not powerful enough! At this moment, a fragrant wind blew. Rudolphus Fei sat next to Julian Ye and looked at the starry sky, "Are you confident for the life-and-death platform tomorrow?" Julian Ye smiled and said: "Of course.” Rudolphus Fei said: "Don't underestimate the enemy.” Julian Ye nodded and said: "I understand.” Rudolphus Fei suddenly said: "After this matter is settled, we will have to prepare to go to the upper world!" Julian Ye turned his head to look at Rudolphus Fei and said: "The upper bound?” Rudolphus Fei nodded and said: "The three-month interval for the martial arts exam is approaching. We need to go to the upper world in advance!" Julian Ye said in a deep voice:” Tutor, how can I go to the main branch of the Guan Xuan Academy?" Rudolphus Fei shook her head and said: "It's too difficult! It's too difficult.” Julian Ye said:"How difficult?" Rudolphus Fei smiled and said: "In this vast universe, there are countless branch schools of Guan Xuan Academy, and all their students' goals are the main branch of Guan Xuan Academy. To go to the main branch, they have to keep fighting and defeat all the talented people and monsters in the branch schools!" Julian Ye remained silent. This is really a bit outrageous! Rudolphus Fei smiled and said: "I know you are not satisfied with being ordinary, but for now, don't think about the main branch of the academy. Just focus on taking one step at a time." Julian Ye nodded and said: "I understand.” Rudolphus Fei suddenly opened her palm and a golden armor appeared in front of Julian Ye. Julian Ye was stunned. Rudolphus Fei said: "This is a heavenly level armor and I only have one. I'll lend you a day to wear it.” Julian Ye glanced at the armor, and could still smell a faint fragrance coming from it. Julian Ye shook his head and said: "Tutor,I don't need it!" Rudolphus Fei looked at Julian Ye and said: "Didn't I say that we shouldn't underestimate the enemy?” Julian Ye smiled wryly, "I.....” Rudolphus Fei directly placed armor in Julian Ye's hand, then stood up and left, "See you tomorrow for your performance!" After speaking, she disappeared into the distance. In place, Julian Ye looked at the armor in his hand and remained silent. In the end, he put it away! Julian Ye lay down and continued to look at the starry sky, as if thinking of something. Suddenly, he asked, "Lanny, what kind of person is my mother?” After a moment of silence, Little Lan said: "A very powerful person.” Julian Ye quickly asked, "Very powerful?” Little Lan said: "Yes! She is very admirable.” Julian Ye said in a deep voice, "She is now imprisoned in the Ye family?" Little Lan said: "Yes.” Julian Ye suddenly said: "To achieve what strength level will I need to save her?" After a moment of silence, Little Lan said: "At least you have to become the Great Sword Immortal.” Great Sword Immortal! Julian Ye slowly closed his eyes and said: "I will become the Great Sword Immortal.” Little Lan hesitated for a moment and then said: "Don't hate her. They put you up to it for their own reasons. otherwise,They wouldn't let me accompany you! " Julian Ye nodded slightly, "I guessed some. If my parents are really heartless enough to do that, then why did they send you to accompany me and leave me the sword?" Little Lan felt relieved in her heart and said: "Practice well, then I will take you to inherit... Oh, what I mean, I will take you to save your mother.” Julian Ye nodded and said: "Okay.” On a certain mountaintop, Zephyr sat on the ground. At this moment, an old man suddenly appeared in front of him, and the old man bowed deeply to Zephyr: "Young master.” As he spoke, he took out a black box and handed it to Zephyr. "The head of the family heard that you would be fighting on the life and death stage today. He specifically sent me to bring this to you." Zephyr opened the box, and inside it was a piece of painted black armor. Zephyr's eyes narrowed slightly, "Heavenly Step Armor.” The old man said in a deep voice, "The ultimate heavenly level turtle shell is made of 108 heavenly level turtle scales, and there is also a defensive array personally drawn by the Rune Master on top of it, which can withstand the full force of powerful divine realm attacks without any damage.” Upon hearing this, Zephyr suddenly became excited and said: "Uncle Nan, did my family really have such a precious treasure?" The old man proudly smiled and said: "As one of the three major aristocratic families in Nanzhou, how could we not have some reserves? The head of the family knows that you will be fighting on the life and death stage with Ye Guan tomorrow. Therefore, he had me bring this treasure to you in a hurry." Zephyr looked at the Heavenly Step Armorl in his hand and said coldly; "With this treasure, I will be unbeatable!" The old man nodded and then took out a small box and handed it to Zephyr. Zephyr looked puzzled and said: "What is this?” The old man smiled and said: "Open it up and take a look.” Zephyr opened the box  and inside were two smooth and shiny pills that gave off a pleasant fragrance. The old man's pupils suddenly narrowed and he exclaimed in surprise, "Is this a panacea?” The old man nodded and said: "panacea. As long as you haven't been killed in a flash, no matter how severe your injuries are, these pills can repair them for you in a short amount of time." As he spoke, he paused and said: "There are only five of these pills in my Nan family.” “Tomorrow, I will kill that Julian Ye! "Zephyr said in a deep voice. The old man nodded and said: "The clan leader believes in your strength. As long as Julian Ye dies, he will lose any value. At that time, our Nan family can eradicate the Ye tribe in the ancient city.” As he spoke, a hint of ferocity flashed in his eyes. "Our Southern family wants the world to understand that whoever violates our Southern family will undoubtedly die.” The old man put away two pills and the mysterious turtle shell, "I only had a seven out of ten chance of killing Julian Ye before. But now, I have a ten out of ten chance!" In addition to these two pills and the mysterious turtle shell, he also has a heavenly level martial arts skill. It can be said that, not to mention killing a Cultivation Realm of Tong You, even those who are strong in The Cultivation Realm of Shen Po,he can also have a battle! After all, whether it's his level martial arts skills or his mysterious turtle shell, at this stage, it can basically be said to be an existence against the heavens! Fighting not only relies on strength, but also on money and equipment! And the Ye clan of Julian Ye is just a small family, what are you using to compete with the Nan family? At this moment, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Zephyr's mouth. The old man said again, "Young master, our master has told us that if this Julian Ye can be appreciated by Rudolphus Fei, so he must have some outstanding skills. Therefore, even if you have full confidence, you cannot underestimate him. Please be careful and do not let yourself make a mistake that could cost you everything!" Zephyr nodded slightly and said: "I understand! Don't worry, I won't underestimate him. Tomorrow's battle will be my full strength, leaving no opportunities for him!" The old man smiled and said: "That's good.” Zephyr's eyes slowly closed, "I can't wait anymore.” The old man nodded and said: "My Nan family can't wait! As long as Julian Ye dies tomorrow, the strong members of my Nan family will immediately go to the ancient city to destroy the Ye tribe.” Zephyr frowned slightly and said: "Tutor Fei.” The old man smiled and said: "Don't worry, as long as Julian Ye dies, Tutor Fei will definitely not tear her face with our Nan family for a dead person, because it's not worth it at all.” Zephyr nodded and said: "That's right.” After speaking, he turned his head and glanced in the direction of the mountain, with a sneer on his lips. The next day, as a hint of pink appeared on the horizon, the students of Guan Xian College all hurried to the life and death stage one after another. Before long, tens of thousands of students had gathered around the stage. At this moment, a young man suddenly appeared in the air above the stage and slowly descended to the ground.  This person is exactly Zephyr!The young man was dressed in a cloud-colored robe with his hands behind his back. The clothing fluttered in the wind without anyone controlling it.  When they saw him, many students cheered for him! After all, he was one of the three top talents at Guan Xian College before! Zephyr closed his eyes tightly and remained silent. Zephyr's eyes closed slightly and he remained silent. At this moment, some people also appeared on the surrounding stone pillars! Rudolphus Fei also arrived early, her eyes slightly closed and she didn't know what she was thinking. Not far from her was Sampson Xiao, Zephyr's mentor. Zion Xiao glanced at Rudolphus Fei and didn't speak. Ryker Song was also on the side. He glanced at Zion Xiao and his expression was not good! That day, Levin Sun was almost killed by this Zephyr! He certainly did not forget this hatred! At this moment, an old man suddenly appeared in the field. Seeing the person coming, the people in the field quickly bowed and said, "I have seen the head of the courtyard!" Someone, it's Everett Zhu, the head of Guanxuan Academy! Everett Zhu smiled slightly and then said: "No need to be polite.” After speaking, he looked at the stone pillar not far to the right, where a man was standing, Sampson Xiao! At this moment, a woman suddenly stepped out of the air! Seeing the person coming, the crowd immediately boiled over! Brianna Na Lan! At the moment Brianna Na Lan appeared, the eyes of countless male students immediately straightened! Brianna Na Lan is currently known as the first beauty in Guanxuan Academy! The object of countless people's admiration! Brianna Na Lan landed on a stone pillar with a calm expression. At this moment, in the eyes of everyone, a man suddenly appeared not far from Zephyr! The person who came was  Julian Ye! Seeing Julian Ye, the atmosphere in the field immediately reached a climax! A great war is coming soon! With the appearance of Julian Ye, Zephyr slowly opened his eyes and looked at him, with a cold smile on his lips. Julian Ye's expression was calm. At this moment, Everett Zhu appeared between the two of them and glanced at them, "Now, if either of you wants to quit, it's not too late!" Zephyr chuckled and said:"If I quit now, won't it become the biggest joke in the history of the academy?" As he spoke, he looked towards Julian Ye. Julian Ye gave Everett Zhu a slight salute and said: "Chief, let's begin!" Everett Zhu nodded and said: "In that case, from this moment on, you two will fight to the death!" Then he turned around and disappeared in the same place. Zephyr looked at Julian Ye and chuckled lightly, still holding his hands behind him. "Julian Ye, this day of the following year is yours.......” At this moment, a Qi sword suddenly flew past the field, like a thunderbolt! Julian Ye didn't have any nonsense, nor did he let Zephyr talk nonsense, and he just launched his attack! Shit! Zephyr just realized what was happening and tried to pull out his hands, but it was too late. His throat was ripped open, blood spattered, and his voice stopped abruptly! Everyone in the arena was petrified! What's going on? On the stone pillar, Rudolphus Fei stared fixedly at Julian Ye. She didn't expect Julian Ye to directly wield his sword! Below, everyone in the arena had been petrified! Not only the students, but also the instructors on the stone pillars, including Juff, were stunned! Everett Zhu's face, which had regained consciousness, suddenly became extremely solemn. And Zion Xiao's face was as pale as death, looking at Julian Ye with an incredulous expression. Below, Julian Ye shook his head and said: "Why do you like to taunt before fighting? Does it help you improve your fighting ability? Or do you want to kill me with words?" In front of Julian Ye, Zephyr covered his throat with both hands as he spewed blood. He looked at Julian Ye incredulously and said hoarsely, "You... sword cultivation... sneak attack... don't talk about martial arts.” Shit! It's another Qi sword that pierces directly through Zephyr's eyebrows! Zephyr fell straight down! Kill the enemy! Julian Ye shook his head slightly and said:"The leader of the academy has already said that it's time to start. It's your fault for talking nonsense, isn't it?" In his opinion, talking nonsense during a fight is a very, very foolish behavior! Julian Ye walked up to Zephyr and searched for him. When he found the black turtle shell and two pills, his eyes lit up and he quickly put them away! Become rich! He did not choose to fight for three hundred rounds with the other party, because there was no need. Why waste energy and time on something that can be solved with a sword? Keep a low profile! High-profile murder! "Sword Cultivator! He's a Sword Cultivator" At this moment, someone in the audience suddenly exclaimed! In an instant, everyone came back to their senses! This is a Sword Cultivator! There was an uproar in the hall! It's unbelievable! But Julian Ye ignored the crowd and flew directly to Brianna Na Lan, probing his left hand and saying, "Sword.” Shit! The XingDao sword suddenly flew out, then drew a beautiful arc in the air, and finally landed steadily at his feet. Julian Ye stood on the sword and extended his right hand towards Brianna Na Lan. Brianna Na Lan looked at Julian Ye and smiled slightly. She reached out her right hand and placed it in Julian Ye's hand, then stepped on the XingDao Sword. Julian Ye gently supported Brianna Na Lan's slender waist with his left hand, and pointed to him with his right hand, "Get up.” Shit! The Xingdao Sword directly transforms into a sword light that rises into the sky and breaks through the clouds. In the field, everyone looked at the sky, and the woman's eyes were filled with envy. On the side, Sampson Xiao looked at the sky and whispered softly:"That's a cool trick!"
