Chapter 71 - Ch 71: Another Level Up
Ye Xiao hesitated a little and swallowed the jelly like substance and the moment he swallowed that jelly like thing, he felt a vast energy exploding in his stomach. He felt like as if he was about to explode.
He hurriedly sat down and started circulating the First Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.
A large amount of spirit energy began to move inside his body through the meridians. He was already at the peak of Sixth Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm. Now that there was a spirit energy in his body in large quantity, he instantly charge toward the bottleneck of the Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
"BOOM!"
He felt as if the energy within his body collided with something and the sound of something breaking sounded inside his body.
Immediately, his aura was strengthen and increased by a large margin and he finally achieved the Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
"Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm. Haha, I am now a martial artist at the Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm. I never thought that in these seven days of the first round of the competition, I'll become a martial artist of Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm from Third Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm."
Ye Xiao laughed out loud and when he calmed himself down, he looked at the Little Yellow. He still couldn't feel even a little bit of the spirit energy from within the Little Yellow's body.
He was with Little Yellow for more than a day and it already devoured more than ten second rank magical beast during this time. But there was not even a tiny bit changes could be seen in Little Yellow. It was still the same how it was before.
And now, it even swallowed a large half which was already around eighty percent of the jelly like thing and he only get to eat around twenty percent of the jelly like thing. But even with only the twenty percent, he took a large step forward, becoming a martial artist at the Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
It has to be known that many martial artists were not able to take exactly this step forward because there was a bottleneck between the Sixth and Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
On the other hand Little Yellow swallowed more than eighty percent of the jelly like substance and there was not even the little bit of difference in it compare to before. It is still exactly what it was before.
Ye Xiao thought it was a pity. If he were to consume the whole red jelly like substance then who knows how many stages of Qi Condensation Realm he could have level up.
But a thought again flashed in his mind.
Where does this jelly like substance comes from?
Is it related to those Martial Emperor Realm martial artist?
Is it the thing for which they were fighting with each other. If it is, then there must be much more of it in the hands of those two Martial Emperors. Maybe, during their fight, a little bit of those jelly like substance fell down on the ground and Little Yellow discovered it.
But what exactly was that jelly like thing?
Anyway, in this journey, I have gain a lot. I need to hurry and go back to report.
When Ye Xiao reached the place to report, there were already hundreds of participants present.
Since the number of participants were in hundreds, there were six row of lines. Every row of line represented a sec among five great sects and the Imperial Family.
Ye Xiao also chose a line randomly and stand up behind the last participants present.
After a very long time, his turn was about to come after two more participants when a uproar started among the participants.
"Hey, did you see that, Lin Hao just gave the examiner a total of one hundred and fifty second rank beast core."
"What? really?"
"Yeah!, I never thought that he can kill that many second rank magical beast in just seven days."
"But where did he found that many second rank magical beast? Even Xu Qing only had sixty two second rank beast core."
"What luck. He really is a lucky guy to encounter so many second rank magical beast."
When Ye Xiao heard this, even he was surprised. It has to know that the both of them were at the other side of the wall of fogs but he only managed to kill and gather a hundred and thirty six second rank magical beast.
"Hey, where are you looking. If you don't want to report then just give back the spatial bag and f*ck off."
Ye Xiao suddenly heard an unpleasant sound. When he turned to look, he saw that it was already his turn. He hurriedly gave back the spatial bag.
"Humph!"
The man who was gathering everyone's spatial bag and counting the second rank beast core snorted lightly and took the spatial bag from Ye Xiao's hand.
"This..."
That man searched within the spatial bag with his spirit energy and he was surprised to see that many second rank beast core. He took out all the beast core. When other participants present saw that many beast core they could not help but take a long breath.
"A total of one hundred and thirty six second rank beast core. Pass."
"What is your name?"
"Ye Xiao."
"Ok, you can go back and two days later, come here at morning. Second round of the competition will start three days later." That man said gently. His expression changed from indifference to surprised.
Ye Xiao nodded his head and left. Not long after, there was another rumour.
A young man who can stand equally with Lin Hao has appeared.
It was different matter that no one knows the name of that young man.
Ye Xiao on the other hand returned to the inn he was previously in and again rented the room for ten days.
At first, he took a long bath and after the bath, he fell asleep on the bed. He slept for almost a day and only on the other day, he woke up.
Just like before, he went down, ate his fill and only then did he walked out from the inn.
He was walking aimlessly when he saw a familiar figure a few meters away from him. It was Zhou Yan.
Ye Xiao looked at him closely and saw that he was still at the First Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
Last time when Ye Xiao saw him, he heard from the Grand Elder that Zhou Yan was also planning to participate in the competition. Since Zhou Yan was here it means he did participated in the competition but from the look on his face, it was clear that he failed in the first round of the competition and it was also obvious after all there were many cultivators participating in this competition and the weakest among them was at the Third Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.
Zhou Yan was only a martial artist at the First Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm so it was very likely that he was unable to a hunt even a single second rank monster by himself and if he hunted in a group then there was not enough second rank beast core in his hand which can place him in top three hundred.
Now, he was returning to the Silver Moon Sect dejectedly.
When Ye Xiao's gaze first landed on him, his eyes flashed with hatred. At this moment, he didn't wanted anything except for tearing apart Zhou Yan into thousand pieces.
Ye Xiao secretly followed him out of the Imperial City. It was obvious that Zhou Yan didn't had enough money to use the teleportation circle.
Zhou Yan was in deep thought about how to face Grand Elder of the Silver Moon Sect when suddenly a figure appeared in front of him.
"Ye Xiao? You... haven't you died already?" Zhou Yan sucked a cold breath and asked in a trembling voice. He still didn't believe that Ye Xiao was still alive and he was in front of him.
"Heh, what do you think?" Ye Xiao smiled coldly.
Zhou Yan felt an intense aura coming out from Ye Xiao's body. He was no fool. He immediately understood that Ye Xiao was definitely many times stronger than him but how? There was no time for him to think about it.
He wanted to call out for help but when he looked around, his face immediately become even more gloomy as no one was present there. He was currently at a deserted road. There was not even an ordinary bird present. He could not help but trembled in fear. He looked in Ye Xiao's eyes. He could see only two thing in his eyes. Hatred and anger.
