Zhang Ye had led a group of young geniuses to the Heavenly God Pavilion to seek justice for Ye Chen's killing of Yin Heng.
They did not represent themselves, but the entire Tianyan Empire. Thus, even Duan Yunxin could not stop them. He could only watch silently from the side. As long as no lives were lost, everything was within the bounds of what he could do.
As for Leng Luoxue, he represented the Qinwu Dynasty.
Although there were countless disputes between the dynasties, they could not be made public. They could only fight in private. On the surface, they still maintained a good relationship.
Therefore, no matter how arrogant and domineering Qin Pojun was, he had not taken Leng Luoxue's life. He had only injured him so that he could not participate in the battle between the dynasties.
This was the deterrence and binding power of the dynasties.
However, Ye Chen had issued a challenge to Qin Pojun in his own name. Instantly, everyone frowned. Even Duan Yunxin's expression changed slightly.
A battle between individuals had nothing to do with the dynasty. It depended on one's strength.
Qin Pojun had come to the Heavenly God Pavilion to fight with Ye Chen to prove that his strength was comparable to Zhang Ye's.
Given Qin Pojun's character, he would definitely go all out if he accepted the challenge. He would not show any mercy. At the same time, no one was allowed to interfere. Even Qin Wu King could only watch the battle from the sidelines until one of them emerged victorious.
This battle was not a battle to the death, but it was no different from a battle to the death. It was extremely dangerous.
"Ye Chen, don't be rash," Fang Yi frowned and reminded him.
Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry. Since I dared to make such a request, I am naturally filled with confidence. I will not lose this battle."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chen glanced lightly at Leng Luoxue, causing Leng Luoxue's gaze to focus slightly. She was able to sense that a large part of the reason Ye Chen made such a request was to help her vent.
This help wasn't out of friendship, nor was it because Ye Chen wanted to curry favor with Leng Luoxue.
However, Ye Chen felt that Leng Luoxue had prepared for so long for the sake of the Imperial Battle, yet now, Leng Luoxue had lost such a precious opportunity because of Qin Pojun, and such actions were truly unreasonable.
Ye Chen wanted Qin Pojun to pay the price. He wanted him to know how painful it was to have his hopes crushed.
"Interesting."
From Qin Pojun's body, a powerful aura was released, covering Ye Chen's entire body.
"Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish."
Qin Pojun lunged forward. His saber light emitted an ear-piercing sound as he stared at Ye Chen. His killing intent was so dense that it was almost tangible. It was extremely terrifying.
On the broken blade, a terrifying evil force flowed continuously, and a bloody head slowly appeared.
Coldness flashed through Ye Chen's eyes when he felt his opponent's powerful attack.
Just at this moment, he stepped forward. His body was surrounded by a golden light, and a domineering dragon's might completely bloomed in the air. Qin Pojun's heart couldn't help but tremble. This pressure was like the birth of a true dragon. It was so pure and powerful.
"Dragon Tiger Sky Destroying Fist!"
Ye Chen snorted inwardly. Within his arms, the dragon and tiger shadows started to circulate. That horrifying power started to crazily condense on the tip of his fist. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Qin Pojun. He threw out a punch, shattering even the air.
"Destroy!"
The powerful fist emitted a whistling sound. Qin Pojun's eyes suddenly froze, and he slashed out with his saber. The bloody head opened its mouth and swallowed the fist, leaving nothing behind.
Seeing this, Ye Chen's face didn't have the slightest expression. He was very calm, as if he had already expected this.
"Dragon Soaring Through the Nine Heavens!"
Ye Chen's body turned into a shocking dragon, and he once again pounced towards Qin Pojun. The terrifying fist was still revolving, and it enveloped Qin Pojun's body. Qin Pojun's hair was blown up, and his face was trembling. He could feel a sharp pain.
"Get lost!"
Qin Pojun suddenly waved his saber, and before the saber light could condense, Ye Chen had already thrown out a dozen punches. The punches wreaked havoc, and the saber light became incomparably dim. Qin Pojun was forced to continuously retreat, and he couldn't find a chance to counterattack. He could only passively fight back.
The saber light circulated on the broken blade, and Qin Pojun stared at Ye Chen. He felt extremely wronged.
He had been cultivating the saber art for a long time, and in terms of agility, he wasn't too strong. However, Ye Chen was different. He had already cultivated the Dragon Soaring Through the Nine Heavens to the sixth level. He was like a flying dragon, and his speed was unbelievably fast. Moreover, he had a powerful dragon's might that could suppress his opponent.
"Qin Pojun is at a disadvantage."
The crowd was looking at the two people in the sky, and their hearts were pounding. From the beginning, Ye Chen hadn't used any powerful martial arts, he had only relied on his speed and his punches. His punches were like lightning, and each of his punches made it difficult for Qin Pojun to breathe. Qin Pojun was feeling extremely uncomfortable.
"Ye Chen's cultivation has increased, and even his fighting skills have improved tremendously. It's really amazing."
Wu Lan was standing next to Duan Yunxin, and she was fixedly staring at Ye Chen's movements. She didn't want to miss a single detail.
Duan Yunxin glanced at Wu Lan, and his face was filled with gratification. Then, he looked back at the battle.
At that moment, Qin Potian's face looked extremely gloomy. His pure Qi was rolling around his body, and he was breathing rapidly. His eyes were filled with anger.
"Die!"
An intense roar came out of Qin Pojun's mouth as he raised the broken blade with both of his hands. That bloody head opened its two mouths and shot out countless blood colored blade lights. They were filled with an evil aura as they attacked toward Ye Chen from all directions.
"Be careful!"
Shouted Leng Luoxue. He had been defeated by this attack, and he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
"Humph!"
Ye Chen's face was still cold, and he groaned. Immediately, the flames of the sun appeared, and they turned into a fiery lotus, which rushed towards Qin Pojun at an incredible speed.
Boom boom boom!
The fiery lotus and the rays of light collided, and a rumbling sound erupted. A strong wind blew, and flames soared into the sky. At the same time, the blood-red rays of light shot through the air. Surprisingly, neither of them was weaker than the other, and when they collided, the air started to crack, and dust rose into the air.
"A mere flame dares to fight against a demon? Devour it!"
A look of disdain appeared on Qin Pojun's face. He waved his arm, and the broken blade pierced towards the Solar Fiery Lotus. The bloody head opened its mouth, and countless blood-red tentacles shot out. It was like an octopus, and it bound the Solar Fiery Lotus tightly before swallowing it whole.
Puff!
After the fiery lotus was swallowed, the rays of light tore through the air and approached Ye Chen. They emitted an overbearing and evil Qi.
"Even Ye Chen's flames of the sun have been swallowed. This broken blade is really strange."
Fang Yi's heart jumped, and his face turned ugly. Now that the flames of the sun had failed, it would be difficult for Ye Chen to defeat Qin Pojun.
When the people of the Qinwu Dynasty saw this, they knew that things weren't going well.
On the other hand, the young men of the Sky Yan Dynasty had mocking smiles on their faces, as if they could already see Ye Chen's defeat.
With a loud rumble, the rays of light exploded, and a violent tornado was formed. Ye Chen's figure suddenly rushed out of the tornado. At this moment, there were some wounds on his body, and hot blood started to flow out of them.
However, he didn't care. He sped up and rushed forward.
