King of Creation
Chapter 104: Chapter 102 I’ll Go Crazy with You (Asking for Monthly Tickets, Third Update)
The disparity between reality and speculation was too vast!
So vast that everyone present couldn’t accept it!
True Essence Fifth Realm vs. Fourth Realm.
Not only did he fail to even touch the corner of his opponent’s robe, but he was also defeated in a second by someone at the True Essence Fourth Realm!
Even those disciples who supported Ye Zhen, feeling confident in his victory, had never imagined, let alone considered, that Ye Zhen would win so cleanly and decisively.
If it weren’t for that Protective Spirit Talisman, Zhou Zhi’an would have been slain by a single strike from Ye Zhen.
Of course, had Ye Zhen actually slain Zhou Zhi’an with that strike, no one would have thought Ye Zhen bloodthirsty; it was Zhou Zhi’an who played dirty first.
In the sky, the multiple Sect Elders, shocked by Ye Zhen’s four Zhang long Sword Gang, turned their gaze simultaneously toward Liao Feibai.
Under the scrutiny of the crowd, Liao Feibai instantly became infuriated.
"What are you looking at me for? I never taught that move, and I can’t teach it either!"
Upon hearing this, surprise surged in the eyes of the many Sect Elders!
"Ye nearly one-shotted Zhou Zhi’an; did you see that? That’s the combat power of Senior Brother Ye!"
"From now on, if anyone says Senior Brother Ye cheats into the Heavenly List, I’ll be furious with them!" After the shock, the disciples who had supported Ye Zhen immediately swelled with pride.
After a long while, Ren Xihua and Changsun Ran, who were spectating, finally came to their senses.
"A sword gang four Zhang in length, how is that possible? Senior Brother Changsun, what’s your limit?" Ren Xihua felt a bitter taste at the corner of his mouth at the thought of Ye Zhen’s four Zhang long Sword Gang.
"Three Zhang, that’s my limit. Perhaps with the use of a martial skill, I could reach four Zhang."
Hiss!
Ren Xihua sharply inhaled a breath of cold air, "You can’t do it, so how did Ye Zhen manage? He’s terrifying, isn’t he? And here I was, thinking of finding a time to battle him fiercely!"
"It could be some secret technique! However, that four Zhang long Sword Gang is merely astonishing, and not terrifying. After all, cultivation determines one’s limitations. It can’t inflict much damage to someone in the Spirit Summoning Realm.
If you battle him now, Ye Zhen is sure to lose without a doubt!" Changsun Ran said.
Next to them, Cao Luo carefully checked Zhou Zhi’an’s injuries before handing him over to several disciples, "Zhi’an, it’s okay, it’s only internal injuries. A few months of rest and you’ll be fine."
Zhou Zhi’an, pale as paper, had an extremely fierce expression at that moment. He grabbed Cao Luo, "Senior Brother, avenge me. You can also challenge Ye Zhen, challenge him now to avenge me, please!"
Cao Luo hesitated somewhat.
Challenge one after another?
He still valued his reputation.
While Cao Luo hesitated, the messages from his Senior Brother Fan Chuyu and his master, Hong Banjiang, simultaneously exploded in Cao Luo’s mind.

"Cao Luo, continue to challenge Ye Zhen, avenge our junior brothers, use my Three Elements Sword, and directly slay Ye Zhen!"
"Cao Luo, Ye Zhen cannot be left alive, kill him!" Those were the words of his master, Hong Banjiang.
The next moment, just as Ye Zhen had stepped down from the Martial Combat Platform, Cao Luo fiercely took the Three Elements Sword from Zhou Zhi’an’s hand, leaped onto the platform, brandished the long sword, and with a sudden surge of killing qi, pointed it directly at Ye Zhen.
"Ye Zhen, I challenge you, do you dare to fight or not!"
Ye Zhen, who had just stepped off the Martial Combat Platform, instantly turned around, saw it was Cao Luo holding the Three Elements Sword, and burst into laughter from sheer anger.
"Cao Luo, you want to challenge me too? What’s with Elder Hong’s disciples today, is everyone eager to kill me to feel happy?"
Ye Zhen was not foolish. Of the eight True Inheritors of True Gang Sect, only four possessed Low Grade Artifacts. Where did Cao Luo and Zhou Zhi’an get such Artifacts?
They had obviously borrowed them to deal with Ye Zhen!
And from whom could they borrow?
Apart from their Senior Brother Fan Chuyu of the same sect, there was no one else.
But, it’s just a challenge between the same sect, it wasn’t a life-and-death battle. Was there a need to go to such lengths to borrow a Low-Grade Artifact?
Furthermore, there was today’s shameless act of Zhou Zhi’an using the Sound Amplification Talisman to blast him out; all of it was suspicious.
To say there wasn’t a scheme, even ghosts wouldn’t believe it.
"Senior Brother Ye, your words are..."
Cao Luo smiled awkwardly, "I’m just eager to compete for the great benefits of entering the top ten of the Heavenly List!"
"Cao Luo, you’re in the Spirit Summoning Realm, challenging a disciple of the True Essence Realm, can you be more shameless? And now you resort to ganging up in battle, do you have any pride left? Why don’t I challenge you as well, to see how you like it?"
Fairy Caiyi, who had been watching, directly started scolding. That’s how Fairy Caiyi was, once she formed an opinion about someone’s character, she wouldn’t mince her words. She’d scold as she saw fit, without regard for any social niceties!
Whoosh!
Cao Luo felt as if all the blood in his body was rushing to his face, which turned as red as a monkey’s butt.
The piercing gaze of thousands of disciples made him wish he could burrow into the ground.
Helpless, that was the impact of a reprimand coming from Fairy Caiyi, the dream lover of all the sect’s disciples – no foul language needed, enough to make one wish to hide.
"I...I...Ye Zhen, let’s reschedule our challenge for another day!"
After being scolded by Fairy Caiyi, Cao Luo immediately backed off.
Hearing Cao Luo say this, many disciples like Golden Yuanbao who supported Ye Zhen breathed a sigh of relief in unison.
Although Cao Luo had just entered the Spirit Summoning Realm not long ago, even if one has just stepped into the Spirit Summoning Realm, that’s still an existence within the Spirit Summoning Realm!
"No need! Since you all like playing tag team, then come on, I’m up for it!"
Whoosh!
Ye Zhen, who had already descended from the Martial Combat Platform, leaped back onto the platform in a flash.
The Inner Sect disciples below stared in astonishment.
Ye Zhen was actually accepting the challenge?
Golden Yuanbao even stopped his work and rushed down to the platform, urging Ye Zhen, "Old Ye, are you crazy? Don’t fall for their tricks! Quick, get down and count the silver for brother."
Standing on the platform, Ye Zhen took a deep breath and said to Golden Yuanbao, "Old Jin, do you have the guts to play an exciting game with me?"
"What kind of game?" Golden Yuanbao didn’t hesitate even a bit!
"Open a betting pool!"
Golden Yuanbao was startled, then started thumping his chest and bellowed, "Alright, Old Ye, I’ll join your madness!"
Turning around, Golden Yuanbao hurried to his betting table and then began to shout, "Golden Yuanbao’s Iron House is opening a pool! Ye Zhen wins, one to two odds; Cao Luo wins, one to five odds!"
Upon hearing these odds, the disciples acquainted with Golden Yuanbao were immediately shocked.
"Golden Yuanbao, has a donkey kicked your head?
A Soul Summoning Realm against a True Essence Realm, is there any doubt?
And with odds of one to five?
Do you want to lose everything you own?"
Golden Yuanbao laughed heroically, "My head hasn’t been kicked by a donkey; it’s been kicked by my brother! Today, this battle—my brother Ye Zhen—must win! Those who believe in me, bet on my brother’s victory!"
The next instant, Golden Yuanbao started shaking his dice bell, "Bets are open, come place your bets, quick have, slow lack!"
"Pfft, as if we’d believe you!"
Talk the talk, but the disciples who were keen on betting still surged forward, racing to place their bets.
However, it was one-sided; nearly everyone bet on Cao Luo’s victory!
The ones who bet on Ye Zhen were almost nonexistent!
Before long, Feng Haoran and Shi Tianjia squeezed their way to the front. Shi Tianjia waved his hand, placing several thousand taels of silver down, "I’m betting on Cao Luo!"
In the end, Shi Tianjia also turned to Feng Haoran and said, "Old Feng, come and place your bet quickly!"
"Alright!"
"Three thousand taels of silver, one Blood Essence Pill, and two hundred Sect contribution points, all on Ye Zhen!" Feng Haoran announced.
Shi Tianjia next to him was instantly dumbfounded, "Old Feng, are you crazy? Why are you betting on Ye Zhen?"
"You don’t understand!"
"Pfft, you’re just pretending again, right? Last time, you were simply lucky to have won. But this time, Soul Summoning Realm against True Essence Realm, do you think it’s possible?" Shi Tianjia scoffed.
"Ye Zhen, come on!" Up on the Martial Combat Platform, Cao Luo called out.
Ye Zhen ignored Cao Luo and narrowed his eyes, then, looking in the direction of Spirit Sword Peak, he suddenly spoke, "Senior Brother Fan, you must be tired of watching from the Spirit Sword Peak, right?
Won’t you place a few bets?
Don’t tell me you have so little confidence in your Junior Brother?"
As before, if you’re going to play, you might as well play big.
With Cao Luo’s red-faced and thick-necked demeanor, looking like an excessively shameless guy, Ye Zhen concluded that Cao Luo had someone backing him!
Ye Zhen’s voice wasn’t loud, yet it sounded like a clap of thunder, instantly quelling the noise of the thousands of disciples at the scene.
True Inheritor!
Ye Zhen was actually challenging the True Disciple Fan Chuyu!
This scene even stunned Changsun Ran and Ren Xihua.
True Disciples—the most exalted beings in the Qiyun Sect, aside from Sect Elders.
Every True Disciple, if they continue to grow, will one day become an Elder with real power in the Sect. Not to mention the Inner Gate disciples, even the ordinary elders wouldn’t dare to offend them.
Even he, Changsun Ran, known as a Quasi True Inheritor, did not dare to provoke them lightly. Even if they had already surmised that the Low Grade Artifact, the Three Elements Sword, was the prized possession of the True Disciple Fan Chuyu!
The very next moment, Ren Xihua clenched his fists, feeling a sudden rush of hot blood.
"This Ye Zhen has got some guts, he’s a real man, I like it!"
"Given the chance, I must have a big fight with him. Battling with such a true man must be highly enjoyable!" Ren Xihua exclaimed excitedly.
Changsun Ran smiled wryly, "Sometimes, the cost of being a true man can be very high..."
Under the lead of Ye Zhen’s voice, all eyes were drawn toward the direction of Spirit Sword Peak, everyone eager to see the reaction of the exalted True Disciple from there.
To everyone’s surprise, there was no reaction!
An eerily still several dozen breaths passed, and there was still no sign from the direction of Spirit Sword Peak.
At that moment, Ye Zhen spoke again.
"Senior Brother Fan, isn’t this a bit dull? Your Low Grade Artifact, the Three Elements Sword, is right here; how can you not acknowledge it?"
"Heh, Senior Brother Fan, don’t let me look down on you, that would be very disappointing!"
With a snort of derision, Ye Zhen made the hidden Fan Chuyu on Spirit Sword Peak unable to keep up his act.
Struggling to contain his towering rage, the deliberately subdued voice of Fan Chuyu rang out.
"Ye Zhen, I have great confidence in my Junior Brother! I’d love to place a few bets to join the fun, but I’m afraid your brother Golden Yuanbao can’t afford to pay!"
"If my brother can’t pay, I will!" Ye Zhen’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was resounding!
"Hahaha, with those words from you, I’ll place my bet!"
The moment Fan Chuyu’s laughter rang out, a Storage Bracelet flew from Spirit Sword Peak, cascading like a heavenly rainbow before falling in front of Golden Yuanbao.
"One million silver notes, a hundred thousand taels of gold! Plus that Low Grade Artifact, the Three Elements Sword, I hope you can afford to pay!"
Looking at the Storage Bracelet on the table in front of him, Golden Yuanbao swallowed hard! (To be continued.
