Novel Full Chapter 172 - Like A God, Ye Ping's Fist Is Invincible
Chapter 172: Like A God, Ye Ping’s Fist Is Invincible
Outside the Jin Nation Academy.
Countless cultivators gathered around to watch.
Their eyes were full of curiosity.
They wanted to see who Ye Ping was.
Among the people of the Jin Nation Academy, Fang Lei and his company were the ones who were the most shocked.
“Why is it him?”
Fang Lei, Mo Xiaoping, Duanmu Yun and the others spoke in unison as they looked at Ye Ping.
Fang Lei, in particular, couldn’t help but recall Ye Ping’s self-introduction the other day.
‘Ye Ping?’
Fang Lei swallowed his saliva. He didn’t expect the person in the Essence Demon Mystic Realm to be Ye Ping.
In the next moment, Fang Lei couldn’t help but look at Duanmu Yun.
Duanmu Yun suddenly felt somehow awkward.
“What’s wrong? Senior Brother Fang? Why have your expressions become so odd? Also, do you guys know him?”
A disciple noticed the strange changes in the expressions of Fang Lei and the others and thus couldn’t help but ask them.
However, as soon as he said that, Fang Lei and the others spoke in unison.
“I don’t know him, I don’t know, don’t talk nonsense.”
Their expressions were bizarre.
Only the four of them knew about the Essence Demon Mystic Realm, but they didn’t want to reveal the truth because it was embarrassing.
“Ye Ping seems to be very strong. I can sense the strength of his physique even from hundreds of meters away.”
Some disciples couldn’t help but compliment Ye Ping.
Fang Lei and the others also snapped back to their senses. They did not dwell on the matter about the Essence Demon Mystic Realm for the time being, and instead looked at Ye Ping who was not far away.
They were amazed and shocked.
Not far away, the golden-haired Huangfu Tianlong was standing under the sun and glistening like a sun god.
He looked rather valiant. Although he was not old, he had a heroic aura that could not be put into words.
On the other hand, Ye Ping had the aura of an absolute Confucian immortal that, coupled with his perfectly handsome features, made him attract a lot of attention.
When Ye Ping appeared, all their doubtful voices fell silent.
Ye Ping’s looks were worthy of an elite.
However, the crowd also knew that a battle was the only way to prove if he was an elite or not.
“I’m Huangfu Tianlong. Greetings, Senior Brother Ye.”
Looking at Ye Ping, Huangfu Tianlong was so excited that his body quivered a little. He was not afraid but excited.
He only needed to take one look to know that Ye Ping was really powerful and could contend with him.
Hence, he was extremely excited because his goal of fighting his way through the Ten Nations was to meet a true powerhouse and elite.
Now that the elite had come, how could he not be excited?
Huangfu Tianlong’s eyes were full of battle intent that could not be concealed.
Although he was a fourth generation disciple, Huangfu Tianlong was younger than Ye Ping, and hence, it was only right for him to call Ye Ping his senior brother.
After all, the two of them were not disciples of the same academy.
“Greetings, Senior Brother Huangfu.”
Ye Ping bowed as a form of courtesy.
However, in the next moment, Huangfu Tianlong spoke up again.
“Senior Brother Ye, do you want to fight in another venue?”
Huangfu Tianlong asked.
He was worried that this place was too small and Ye Ping would not be able to exhibit his powers.
However, Ye Ping responded.
“No, we can just have the battle here.”
His words caused a huge uproar, and the students of the Jin Nation Academy clenched their fists with their eyes full of excitement.
Ye Ping’s words were exactly the same as what Huangfu Tianlong had said that day.
That kind of counterattack made them feel elated.
“Okay, in that case, please do your best, Senior Brother Ye. I don’t want to have any regrets.”
Huangfu Tianlong didn’t care about those. He took a deep breath and looked at Ye Ping with a firm gaze in his eyes.
He wanted Ye Ping to do his best and not have any reservations. Otherwise, it would still be meaningless.
“Yes.”
Ye Ping nodded and agreed.
In fact, he did not have any hostility towards Huangfu Tianlong, and it was normal for a martial arts sparring session. However, Huangfu Tianlong was being too proactive.
However, it was normal to be young and zealous.
Soon, everyone quietened down and stared at both of them while holding their breaths.
They were expecting a huge battle.
However, neither Ye Ping nor Huangfu Tianlong attacked.
That made them feel anxious.
However, no one dared to speak up because it was a real battle between elites and any interjection would very likely affect the battle. It would be troublesome if they ended up doing something wrong.
However, the true powerhouses understood why Huangfu Tianlong and Ye Ping did not strike.
Ye Ping was too confident.
To be more precise, both of them were too confident.
They both felt that they could defeat each other, so neither wanted to make the first move.
On the battlefield, Huangfu Tianlong looked at Ye Ping who seemed extremely calm and was waiting for him to strike.
He knew what Ye Ping was thinking.
Therefore, Huangfu Tianlong sighed and immediately launched the first strike.
Boom!
The sounds of the void quaking filled the air.
Unparalleled power emerged from Huangfu Tianlong’s body who took the initiative to attack as he did not want to wait any longer.
The terrifying power of his fists made the void tremble too.
It was pure power, and in the eyes of the spectators, Huangfu Tianlong was like an ancient beast that was incredibly terrifying.
The most terrifying thing was not his power but speed.
Huangfu Tianlong’s fists moved too quickly, and he was like a bolt of lightning. Some of the cultivators with weaker cultivation levels could not even see Huangfu Tianlong’s speed clearly.
Everyone was astonished, and be it the disciples of the Jin Nation Academy or the spectators, they were all overwhelmed with despair and hopelessness.
‘Is his physical body alone that strong?’
To be honest, his combat power was probably enough for him to put up a fight even when faced with a Golden Core realm cultivator.
The disciples of the Jin Nation Academy were not just shocked but also worried.
They were afraid that Ye Ping might fail.
It wasn’t that they didn’t believe in Ye Ping, but Huangfu Tianlong was just too overpowering.
At this moment, they completely realized that it was Huangfu Tianlong’s true strength.
Previously, Huangfu Tianlong seemed like a powerhouse but it was not his true power. What he was displaying now was his true power!
Boom!
The Dragon-Elephant Ancient Fist appeared in front of Ye Ping.
Huangfu Tianlong’s aura was unparalleled while his fist was tyrannical and terrifying, full of power.
However, at the next moment…
Boom!
There were various booms.
At this very moment, Ye Ping threw a punch.
There was no light, nor any strange sound as it was just an ordinary punch.
It collided with Huangfu Tianlong’s Dragon-Elephant Ancient Fist, emitting a terrifying roar.
Dumbfounded, everyone watched with their eyes wide open and glassed over.
‘Psht!’
Something astonishing happened.
Now, Huangfu Tianlong, who was like a heavenly deity, was blasted away while vomiting golden-colored blood.
“This is impossible!”
“Why not?”
“Huangfu Tianlong is defeated?”
“He defeated Huangfu Tianlong with one punch? This doesn’t make sense.”
Sss!
In an instant, countless voices surged over. They dared not believe that Huangfu Tianlong had been defeated just like that.
That was simply impossible.
At the age of eighteen, Huangfu Tianlong cultivated the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique to the sixth level, and his physical body was invincible while his physique was like a dragon as he dominated the elites of the Ten Nations.
However, no one expected him to have gotten defeated in the Jin Nation.
He even lost to a young cultivator who wasn’t famous at all.
‘How is Ye Ping so strong?’
The spectators were not the only ones who were shocked.
The first and second generation disciples of the Jin Nation Academy were just as astonished as they watched everything with their eyes and mouth wide open.
In particular, Fang Lei and the others had indeed fought against Huangfu Tianlong before.
They knew how strong Huangfu Tianlong was.
However, they didn’t expect Ye Ping to actually effortlessly defeat Huangfu Tianlong.
It was simply too dramatic.
In everyone’s opinion, Ye Ping would either be defeated by Huangfu Tianlong in this battle without much effort, or he would show incredible strength and go toe-to-toe against Huangfu Tianlong.
However, no one expected Ye Ping to have really won.
It was just too incredible.
However, before they could speak, Ye Ping spoke again.
“You asked me to do my best, but you didn’t really exert your full strength. Since you have reservations, this battle is meaningless. Just go all out, don’t leave behind any regrets as you might not have the chance next time.”
Under the academy, the rays of sunlight were cast onto Ye Ping whose expression was calm and gaze was indifferent.
He did not seem excited or gleeful at all and was merely calm.
However, his words shocked all the cultivators.
“Reservations? Huangfu Tianlong still has reservations?”
“This can’t be right, he’s already so strong but he’s actually still holding back?”
“The Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique is indeed worthy of being the best Body Tempering technique in the Ten Nations. He’s already so powerful but it still isn’t his full strength yet.”
“Unbelievable, unbelievable, is the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique so powerful?”
“No! You’ve only focused on Huangfu Tianlong. Ye Ping is very strong too.”
“Ah! Yeah, how could we have neglected Ye Ping? Since when has there been such a genius in Jin Nation?”
The cultivators discussed and were at a loss for words.
Huangfu Tianlong was incredibly powerful and yet, he was defeated by Ye Ping calmly. In the end, it turned out that he had restrained his power. That was simply too terrifying.
Not far away, Huangfu Tianlong coughed and wiped the golden blood on his lips indifferently.
He stared at Ye Ping, his eyes like divine lamps.
The emotions in his eyes were not anger but heartfelt excitement.
He did not say anything, but his domineering aura was increasing rapidly.
Roar!
Moo!
The terrifying roar of dragon was accompanied by the trumpet of an elephant.
The sounds caused the hearts of the crowd of cultivators to ricochet.
At this moment, a white True Dragon and a divine elephant appeared behind Huangfu Tianlong.
The True Dragon was entangling the divine elephant. The dragon and elephant fought while all the cultivators felt an unparalleled pressure.
It was as if they were carrying boulders that weighed thousands of kilograms and were making it difficult for them to breathe.
At this moment, Huangfu Tianlong was like a heavenly god.
The white Dragon-Elephant shadow was emitting a powerful light that enveloped him and healed all the injuries that he had just suffered.
His energy had also reached its peak at this juncture.
“Senior Brother Ye, please guide me.”
Huangfu Tianlong spoke again.
In the next moment, he leaped over again.
However, this time, he was far stronger than before.
The sounds of dragon roars and elephant trumpeting filled the air.
Under the academy, Ye Ping calmly sensed the aura of Huangfu Tianlong.
He was indeed very strong. If he hadn’t made a trip back to the sect, he might not have been able to defeat Huangfu Tianlong.
However, things were different now. He had condensed the Great Godfiend and the difference was just too large.
Hence, even if Huangfu Tianlong attacked with all his might, Ye Ping did not sense any pressure.
It was just like Fang Lei and the others challenging Huangfu Tianlong. Ye Ping wanted to be serious but he couldn’t.
Boom.
In the next moment, Ye Ping punched calmly.
There was nothing fancy or mysterious about his moves.
It looked plain but his punch was extremely domineering.
Boom.
The terrifying roar filled the air again.
Their fists collided and resulted in a huge impact that was enough to push the cultivators away by dozens of meters.
In some halls, many geniuses got up and looked at the scene with deadpan expressions.
Just like before, Huangfu Tianlong was once again knocked away.
He couldn’t resist or retaliate at all.
It was suffocating.
They were stunned!
Incredible.
The tens of thousands of cultivators had different expressions.
They were shocked the first time Ye Ping defeated Huangfu Tianlong effortlessly, and Huangfu Tianlong’s reservations made them slightly relieved.
However, Huangfu Tianlong went all out the second time and was again sent flying with a single punch.
It was just ridiculous!
It was simply unbelievable.
They were all stunned and at a loss for words.
Bang!
After falling to the ground, Huangfu Tianlong seemed to be in disbelief too.
He knew that Ye Ping was strong.
However, he didn’t know that Ye Ping was actually this strong.
Even Huangfu Tianlong was certain that Ye Ping had not really exerted his full strength yet.
The difference made Huangfu Tianlong feel stunned.
He knew that it wasn’t that he couldn’t beat Ye Ping, but that Ye Ping was just too powerful and the difference between them was too great.
However, it was simply impossible. Although Ye Ping was only 22 years old, which was four years older than Huangfu Tianlong, the difference should not be so drastic.
At this moment, Ye Ping’s voice suddenly sounded.
“The difference between us is too large. You’re very competent and strong but it’s all over.”
Ye Ping said.
He wasn’t mocking Huangfu Tianlong.
Instead, he was just telling him that the difference between the two of them was too large.
It was the truth. However, it was not mockery or contempt.
Ye Ping respected Huangfu Tianlong who was a true cultivator.
However, Huangfu Tianlong shook his head.
There was some bitterness in his eyes and his golden hair was a little messy. He then said, “I haven’t lost yet, can you give me one last chance? However, let’s go outside the city instead.”
Huangfu Tianlong said.
His eyes were filled with bitterness but there was also some confidence.
He still had a trump card.
He wanted to fight Ye Ping.
At this moment, even Ye Ping was shocked, let alone the spectators.
He could tell that Huangfu Tianlong’s ultimate power had been completely exerted.
It was impossible that he would have any other means.
However, at this very moment, Huangfu Tianlong took out a drop of essence blood.
The drop of blood was as brilliant as a diamond which looked like a beautiful blood diamond.
“This is the genuine blood of a ten-thousand-year-old flood dragon. If I swallow it, I can directly break through to the seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique. Senior Brother Ye, can I fight with you again?”
Huangfu Tianlong stood up and stared at Ye Ping with a calm expression.
That was his last trump card.
That drop of essence blood could help him break through to the seventh level directly, but he didn’t want to break through and instead wanted to rely on his own strength and break through to the seventh level.
However, he wanted to win.
He had finally met a true genius, and if he lost the opportunity, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
He was a genius and so was Ye Ping. At the same time, the distance between the two of them would continue increasing too.
Regardless of who was stronger the one between the two, it would be a regret.
In the era of the strongest, such battles were the most meaningful when met with powerful enemies.
Hence, if Ye Ping agreed, he would swallow the essence blood, but if Ye Ping did not agree, he would not swallow it.
Defeat was defeat. He just felt a little indignant.
Everyone could not help but look at Ye Ping.
They were also filled with astonishment.
He didn’t expect Huangfu Tianlong to have that trump card.
Many geniuses who were secretly watching in the dark had their faces turn sullen.
They knew that Huangfu Tianlong’s sixth level of Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique was powerful but they didn’t know that he had that last trump card.
If Huangfu Tianlong really swallowed this drop of genuine blood and broke through to the seventh level.
That would be really invincible.
To them, geniuses could appear in this world, but they couldn’t be too much better than them.
There were a total of 13 levels in the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique, and from the sixth level onwards, each level would be exaggeratedly more powerful than the one preceding it.
The sixth level and the seventh level were definitely worlds apart and the increase was certainly not ordinary.
“Junior Brother Ye, don’t agree to it. The difference between the seventh level and the sixth level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique is enormous. It’s very likely that you will lose.”
“Yes, Senior Brother Ye, it’s enough, save your strength for the Ten Nations Grand Tournament.”
“Huangfu Tianlong, you should know of the difference between the sixth and seventh level of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique. Even if you win this battle, it won’t be honorable.”
“Defeat is defeat. The difference in age between you and Ye Ping is less than four years, and even if he wins, there won’t be an advantage. However, if you force a breakthrough to the seventh level with the help of external forces, it wouldn’t be fair.”
At this moment, the first generation disciples of the Jin Nation Academy spoke up and persuaded Ye Ping not to accept the battle.
It would be best for him to preserve strength and shine at the Ten Nations Grand Tournament.
They also knew that Ye Ping definitely had reservations, but the difference between the sixth and seventh levels of the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique was extremely terrifying.
It was the same as the difference between two large realms.
In this case, Ye Ping would definitely lose.
Now that he had already won, there was no need for him to go out of his way to make trouble.
The first generation disciples of the Jin Nation Academy were not the only ones.
The rest of the cultivators thought so too.
It was mainly because the Great Dragon and Elephant Ancient Technique was too extraordinary. After the sixth level, the difference between levels would be drastic.
If Huangfu Tianlong really broke through to the seventh level, he would really become invincible and Ye Ping might not necessarily win.
However, even if Huangfu Tianlong won, it would be meaningless.
After all, with the help of external forces, it would be the same as forced enhancement and thousands of years of cultivation would be added to Huangfu Tianlong’s body.
That would be meaningless.
However, Huangfu Tianlong did not listen to anyone and simply looked at Ye Ping while waiting for his answer.
At this moment, all eyes were on Ye Ping.
All of a sudden, someone spoke up.
“You’ve already lost.”
It was a calm voice, and it belonged to Ye Ping.
He told Huangfu Tianlong that he had lost.
“I have indeed lost but I still have the strength to fight one last time.”
Huangfu Tianlong admitted that he had been defeated, but he thought that he could still fight one more battle.
Ye Ping shook his head.
He looked at Huangfu Tianlong with a clear gaze.
He then said slowly, “No, that’s not what I’m talking about.”
Ye Ping said.
At this moment, everyone couldn’t help but seem curious outside the Jin Nation Academy.
