"Ye Qingxuan, during the Martial Competition this year, I want to see how you will defeat me!" Ye Jun was filled with indignation as he gnashed his teeth.

"Cheng, you fool!"

Helplessness surfaced on Ye Kong's elderly face. After signing the Life and Death Contract, there was no way he would go back on his words.

"Lord Pulse Master, farewell." Ye Qingxuan lightly replied as he turned and left.

The crowd stared at Ye Qingxuan's back in a daze, not knowing what to do. They actually didn't receive any severe punishments for humiliating Ye Jun and the host?

"All of you, scram!" Ye Kong shouted out. The bodies of the servants shook violently as blood flowed out from their eyes, ears, noses and mouths.

"We must report this to Second Lord immediately!" Ye Kong said in a deep voice.

After leaving the House of Ye, Ye Qingxuan let out a long breath. His back was all wet. His hands were shaking inside his sleeves. He couldn't calm down for a long time.

After eliminating the Gate of Destiny, Ye Qingxuan was unable to make Ye Kong avoid throwing rats. Facing Ye Kong, he could only gamble everything on this. Fortunately, he won the bet.

"There's still a little more than a month before the New Year. Ye Jun is at the middle stage of the Transcending Mortality Stage, I still have a long way to go." Ye Qingxuan took a deep breath. A Transmogrification Realm martial artist could definitely crush a Dragon Elephant Realm martial artist by knocking open the entrances to the Heaven and Earth. If he wanted to defeat Ye Jun, he had to break through to the Transmogrification Realm.

Or, he could cultivate a Dragon Elephant's Spirit Body.

"At this point, I have no choice but to go to Mang Gu Mountain Range."

Although the Mang Gu Mountain Range was a place of great danger, fighting berserk beasts could also increase one's strength and increase one's battle experience.

When Ye Qingxuan returned to the small courtyard, Ye Qingyu looked up in anticipation. Seeing that he had returned safely, the worry in the young girl's eyes faded. "Young Master, they didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

Ye Qingxuan shook his head, "I said that I will protect you!"

"This month, I will be going to the Mang Gu Mountain Range to gain experience. Elder sister, you don't have to worry about me."

He did not tell the matter of the Life and Death Contract to Ye Qingyu, in case she was worried. However, he couldn't hide it for too long. Within half a day, news of this would spread throughout the Sun Moon Ancient City.

"Be careful!" Ye Qingyu said.

Ye Qingxuan nodded as he departed for the Mang Gu Mountain Range.

The Mugu Mountains were located to the south of the Sun Moon Ancient City. They spanned across several tens of thousands of miles, spanning several large prefectures, including the Cyan Plains, the East Region, and the other great prefectures. According to the legends, deep within the Mang Gu Mountain range, there were even God Realm beasts.

However, the Mugu Mountains were also a paradise for adventurers. The bodies of the berserk beasts were treasures, and many warriors would hunt and kill berserk beasts, selling them to restaurants and medicine stores to earn silver taels.

Outside the southern city gate, flags were fluttering in the wind.

Ye Qingxuan's gaze swept over them as his heart trembled slightly. This was a rogue cultivator recruiting for the same path, entering the Mang Gu Mountain Range at the same time. Ye Qingxuan moved, arriving under a banner.

Three men and one woman. The strongest was at the ninth level of the Dragon Elephant Realm, while the weakest was at the seventh level.

"Little brother, you want to join our team?" A yellow-clothed youth stared at Ye Qingxuan, his eyes holding a trace of ridicule. "With your cultivation level at the fifth level of the Dragon Elephant Stage, you can't even take a single move from me. You should just leave."

The two men laughed softly as well, completely disregarding Ye Qingxuan's attitude.

"I want to try." Ye Qingxuan said with a faint smile.

"Don't mess around, hurry up and leave, don't waste our time!" The yellow-clothed youth's expression became ugly as he shouted out.

The woman's gaze was fixated on Ye Qingxuan. Her bright eyes were moved as she said, "Huang Xuan, why don't you let him give it a try?"

"Big sister Mu Yu, this kid is only at the fifth level of the Dragon Elephant Stage. How could he take ten moves from me?" Huang Xuan laughed in disdain.

"Since he dares to accept the challenge, he must know something." Mu Yu stared at Ye Qingxuan as he spoke, "If you can exchange ten blows with him, we will be able to bring you into Mang Gu Mountain Range."

"Alright." Ye Qingxuan smiled faintly as his gaze fell on Mu Yu. This girl had a cultivation base at the eighth level of the Dragon Elephant Stage. Her aura was vigorous and her strength was only below that of the burly man at the ninth level of the Dragon Elephant Stage.

The tall and sturdy man let out a light sound of surprise as a few thoughts flashed through his mind. He and Mu Yu both stared at Ye Qingxuan.

"Big brother, this kid is simply asking to be humiliated." The youth in black snickered, a saber hung at his waist, his aura cold and sharp. He was at the eighth level of the Dragon and Elephant Realm.

"Make your move." Huang Xuan said.

"You attack first."

"You dare look down on me?" A kid at the fifth level of the Dragon and Elephant Realm actually dared to let him make the first move? He coldly snorted and said, "I will defeat you in one move!"

"Tiger Kill!"

Huang Xuan let out a long hiss as his spirit energy surged. His palms suddenly turned green and black, and the sound of a tiger's roar resounded in the air. Both of his palms blasted out as black streams of air swirled around him. An infernal energy billowed as he slashed his palms straight towards Ye Qingxuan.

In an instant, the air was filled with the shadows of palms.

"Big sister Mu Yu, do you really think he can stop Huang Xuan?" The youth mocked.

The difference between the two was a full two Astral Souls. No matter how profound the martial art was, it could not make up for the difference. Hence, in the eyes of the black-robed young man, Ye Qingxuan was bound to lose.

A smile appeared on Mu Yu's delicate face. "To dare challenge a seventh level martial artist of the Dragon Elephant Stage with a cultivation level at the fifth level of the Dragon Elephant Stage, you must have someone backing you up. Do you think this person is the former?"

The black-clothed youth continued to look at him with disdain.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Huang Xuan's palm descended and layers of palm shadows completely enveloped Ye Qingxuan. His face still had a mocking smile, as if he was mocking Ye Qingxuan for overestimating his strength.

"Whiz!"

In the next moment, Ye Qingxuan's figure flashed and suddenly disappeared from the palm shadows that filled the sky.

This change caused the black clothed youth's pupils to shrink.

The burly man and Mu Yu, on the other hand, had a disapproving expression on their faces.

"Damn brat, get out here!" Huang Xuan was furious. He roared and stomped on the ground. With himself as the center, a violent blast of air surged out in all directions, trying to force Ye Qingxuan out.

"Raging Waves Fist!"

A light voice rang out and Ye Qingxuan appeared in everyone's line of sight. He activated the Dragon Elephant Heavenly Art, and his dense spirit energy ran through all five of the dragon meridians, pouring out like a torrent.

BOOM!

An earth-shattering power blasted out, like a giant wave crashing into Huang Xuan's defense with unstoppable force.

Boom! *

Ye Qingxuan's fist punched out and the palm shadows that filled the sky shattered with a loud bang. The air waves turned into nothingness, turning into a vacuum space with a radius of 30 feet.

Huang Xuan's pupils contracted as he felt suffocated.

"Raging Flames Palm!"

Huang Xuan activated his profound art as his spirit energy fiercely ignited. His palm, which seemed to be wrapped in raging flames, met Ye Qingxuan's fist head on.

Boom! *

The fist and the palm collided, and a burst of energy exploded. Huang Xuan could only feel an endless amount of power erupting from Ye Qingxuan's fist, destroying his martial art.

Another explosion rang out, and Huang Xuan's entire body flew out, landing on the main road.

"Thank you." Ye Qingxuan clasped his hands as he looked at Mu Yu, "I wonder if my strength can enter your eyes?"
