989: Chapter 982: Show of Strength 989: Chapter 982: Show of Strength Standing on the platform, Ye Chenfeng was about to step down after seeing Xiao Li Yuan leave the arena, but suddenly his step faltered.
Unexpectedly, he felt a subtle fluctuation of Soul Force spontaneously developing within his body.
Noticing this, Ye Chenfeng slightly furrowed his brows.
In the battle for life and death with the Ancient Martial Punishers and the top forces of the Ancient Martial World, to the point where Ouyang Ming used his life’s True Energy Force to help Ye Chenfeng remodel his meridians and reform his body, Ye Chenfeng’s Soul Force had already accumulated to the pinnacle of the Initial Stage of Venerable Level.
He was only missing an opportunity to break through to the Middle Stage of Venerable Level.
But who would have thought that this opportunity would arise now?
Ye Chenfeng certainly wouldn’t miss such a rare chance.
Now wanting to break through smoothly to the Middle Stage of Venerable Level as soon as possible, he must continuously elevate his Soul Force to the limit and then release all of his power from within his body.
Facing a strong opponent in battle was undoubtedly the best method to achieve a breakthrough.
While Ye Chenfeng stood on the platform deep in thought, Xu Ziqi, who was extremely angry in his heart, spoke sarcastically, “Kid, why are you still standing on the platform?
Are you still thinking of challenging the masters of our Obliterate Heavenly Alliance?
Do you actually believe we have no one left?”
Ye Chenfeng looked at Xu Ziqi with a cold gaze, his incessant buzzing was starting to irritate him.
Just then, Lin Kangsheng’s daughter Lin Xinyi walked onto the platform by herself.
Pressing her thin lips together, she spoke in an icy tone, “Can you fight with me?”
The noble and glamorous Lin Xinyi didn’t step onto the platform because she was provoked by Xu Ziqi; on the contrary, she looked down upon people like him.
However, as the daughter of the Vice Alliance Hierarch of the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance and knowing Ye Chenfeng was not from their alliance, she must come forward and defeat Ye Chenfeng to restore some face for the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance, especially since many members of the alliance were present.
Originally, it should have been Shen Mingxuan, the son of the Alliance Hierarch of the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance, who stepped into the arena, but Shen Mingxuan had already broken through to the Initial Stage of Venerable Level Soul Force.
If he had taken to the platform, even if he won against Ye Chenfeng, it would be considered an unfair victory.
When Lin Kangsheng and Shen Jingwu saw Lin Xinyi step onto the platform, Lin Kangsheng hurriedly scolded her, “Xinyi, what are you fussing about?
Get down from the platform right now.
Brother Ye’s strength is only at the Initial Stage of Venerable Level, while yours is already at the Peak.
It was already unfair when Li Yuan stepped into the arena against Brother Ye.”
Wearing a black dress with her dark hair draped over her shoulders, Lin Xinyi didn’t respond to Lin Kangsheng.
Instead, her captivating eyes were fixed on Ye Chenfeng, filled with a provocative look.
Ye Chenfeng knew that Lin Xinyi was only at the Peak of Venerable Level strength, which made them quite matched in power.
He was currently worried about how to achieve his breakthrough.
So Lin Xinyi stepping up to the platform was exactly what he wanted.
Ye Chenfeng faced Lin Xinyi’s gaze unflinchingly and said, “Okay, I will fight with you.
But, you must use all your strength, otherwise step down from the platform now.”
Lin Xinyi had intended to use only eighty percent of her power, considering Ye Chenfeng’s strength was only at the Initial Stage of Venerable Level.
Hearing Ye Chenfeng’s confident words now, she slightly furrowed her brows and after a silence of three seconds, she said, “Alright, I will exert all my effort.”
Listening to the conversation between Lin Xinyi and Ye Chenfeng on the platform, Lin Kangsheng and Shen Jingwu could only shake their heads helplessly.
Lin Kangsheng said, “Let’s just let them go ahead!
They are both willingly competing after all.”
Shen Jingwu nodded and addressing the two on the platform, said, “Both of you, keep it to a point, the duel begins.”
Standing opposite Ye Chenfeng, Lin Xinyi tied up her hair, which was draping over her shoulders, with a simple hair tie and rapidly elevated her Soul Force to the Peak of Venerable Level within her body.
Without any further ado, she stepped forward and with a flash, swiftly pounced toward Ye Chenfeng.
If Ye Chenfeng had used his Storm Profound Step Method, he could have easily defeated Lin Xinyi in an instant.
However, in order to breakthrough in strength, this time he chose not to win with speed.
Taking a step forward as well, he met Lin Xinyi head-on.
His right fist thundered toward Lin Xinyi.
Members of the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance below the platform originally thought Ye Chenfeng could demonstrate even faster speed, but now seeing that he wasn’t showing increased speed and instead chose a head-to-head confrontation with Lin Xinyi, they shook their heads one by one.
In their view, Ye Chenfeng could perhaps train to increase his speed, but how could he possibly compete in strength with Lin Xinyi, who was at the Peak of Venerable Level?
After exchanging glances, Shen Jingwu said to Lin Kangsheng, “Kang Sheng, it seems this time it won’t be beyond our expectations.
Since Ye Chenfeng can’t increase his speed any further, Xin Yi should be able to easily win the duel.
After all, she is two small levels above Ye Chenfeng.”
Xiao Li Yuan, who had just battled against Ye Chenfeng, stared intently at the two figures on the stage, his expression serious.
He instinctively felt that Ye Chenfeng wouldn’t lose and could even defeat Lin Xinyi.
Xu Ziqi, whose cheek was swollen, burst into a triumphant smile upon seeing Ye Chenfeng clash head-on with Lin Xinyi.
He taunted, “Kid, do you really think you’re all that?
With your mere Clan Level Initial Stage strength, how can you contend with Xin Yi’s Clan Level Peak strength?
What an idiot.”
However, just as the words left Xu Ziqi’s mouth, a muffled “Bang!” echoed through the air as Ye Chenfeng’s fist touched Lin Xinyi’s.
At the very moment their fists met, a torrential aura burst forth from Ye Chenfeng’s body, matching Lin Xinyi’s in intensity.
Lin Xinyi had thought she could send Ye Chenfeng reeling with a single punch, but feeling the force from Ye Chenfeng’s fist, she realized she was severely mistaken.
“Thump, thump, thump, thump, thump!” Her footsteps retreated five steps in succession, while Ye Chenfeng only took three steps back.
Ye Chenfeng didn’t choose to stay put.
His figure rushed toward Lin Xinyi again, throwing one punch after another with the sole intention of using sheer brutality to achieve a breakthrough in strength, unconcerned about showing mercy for the fairer sex.
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
…
Dull thuds resonated through the air.
Ye Chenfeng’s body had been completely transformed, and although their strength was closely matched, there was no denying that Ye Chenfeng’s physique was significantly more formidable than Lin Xinyi’s.
With each successive punch, she was forced to keep retreating, looking increasingly disheveled.
Whenever their fists collided, she felt as though she was striking a rock, fearing that if this continued, even her bones would shatter.
Lin Xinyi, drenched in fragrance-filled sweat, dodged aside once more.
Though her beautiful eyes were filled with reluctance, she still panted delicately and said, “I admit defeat.”
The extent of her display was far from enough to cause a breakthrough, yet Lin Xinyi had conceded first, so Ye Chenfeng had no choice but to cease his attacks.
The audience beneath the stage, including Shen Jing Wu and Lin Kang Sheng, were stunned.
Ye Chenfeng, at Clan Level Initial Stage, forced the Clan Level Peak Lin Xinyi into continuous retreat with his strength alone, which suggested that at the very least, Ye Chenfeng’s power was on par with Clan Level Peak, wasn’t it?
Did Ye Chenfeng possess the strength to defeat opponents across two minor levels?
Xu Ziqi, with his swollen cheek, saw his smirk freeze completely.
Swallowing hard with a “gulp, gulp” in his throat, he began to feel fear toward Ye Chenfeng.
Shen Jing Wu and Lin Kang Sheng’s eyes sparkled decisively.
They were determined to recruit Ye Chenfeng into the Obliterate Heavenly Alliance.
Even if Ye Chenfeng could not advance any further in his life, the fact that he could defeat a Clan Level Peak master meant he was already considered a formidable expert.
Just as Shen Jing Wu was about to speak up, Ye Chenfeng on the stage turned his gaze toward Shen Ming Xuan, who had Venerable Level Initial Stage strength, and asked, “Can you battle with me?” (To be continued.
