Chapter 069: Hidden Dragon List Champion Easily Secured
Thunder roared, the heavens dimmed.
Unlike his duel with Mu Xiyao, Ye Wushang unleashed a lightning-fast killing blow against Chu Taicang.
This slash, wrapped in thunderous might, descended like a force that could crush the stars.
Ye Wushang understood Chu Taicang’s intentions.
But he wasn’t here to play nice.
With someone like Mu Xiyao, a top-tier beauty and prodigy, he could afford patience and guidance.
He wasn’t about to spar politely.
The terrifying blade sliced through the storm, carrying unstoppable force.
Chu Taicang, who had just arrived and was about to introduce himself, was stunned.
He hadn’t expected Ye Wushang to greet him with a lethal strike.
Angered, he retaliated.
“You think I’m easy prey? Fist Shakes the Galaxy Break!”
A mighty punch surged forth, infused with four-layer fist intent.
That punch was beyond their ability to withstand.
But against Ye Wushang, it was too weak.
Thunder echoed across the sky.
Ye Wushang’s blade pierced through the punch and slammed into Chu Taicang’s chest.
Chu Taicang was blasted out of the Cave Heaven world and crashed onto the arena platform.
A massive crater formed around him, spiderweb cracks spreading outward.
Any lingering hopes of sparring with Ye Wushang vanished.
His gentleness wasn’t for everyone.
Mu Xiyao, watching this, felt a strange sweetness in her heart.
She had never felt this way before.
Looking at Ye Wushang’s tall, commanding figure and handsome face, she was momentarily dazed.
Chu Taicang rose, his expression complex. Dıscover more novels at 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✶𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮✶𝓷𝓮𝓽
Though frustrated, he understood.
If their roles were reversed, he wouldn’t have offered Ye Wushang a friendly spar either.
Now, of the Four Dragon Prodigies, two had been defeated.
All eyes turned to Jiang Luocheng.
He awkwardly rubbed his nose, then calmly took the third seat.
Clearly, he had no intention of challenging Ye Wushang.
He knew his own strength.
He had fought Chu Taicang many times and they were evenly matched.
If Chu Taicang was defeated in one move, he wouldn’t fare any better.
As for the second seat, he might have contested it before.
But after seeing Mu Xiyao’s breakthrough to five-layer sword intent, he knew he wasn’t her match.
Better to yield than be humiliated.
Mu Xiyao, seeing this, gracefully claimed the second seat.
Chu Taicang’s expression darkened.
He hadn’t expected to rank last among the Four Dragon Prodigies.
He didn’t dare challenge Ye Wushang.
Mu Xiyao’s sword intent was overwhelming.
Against Jiang Luocheng, he was injured and likely to lose.
Reluctantly, he took the fourth seat.
The crowd was amazed.
The rankings of the Four Dragon Prodigies were the first to be decided.
No one dared challenge them.
Among the top 36, the hierarchy was clear.
Next came the Hero-tier prodigies, like Wang Wudao, and others with comparable strength.
Some hadn’t been officially ranked but proved themselves through battle.
After days of fierce combat, the rankings were finalized.
The 108 champions of the Hidden Dragon List were confirmed.
The tournament concluded successfully.
At the summit, Ye Wushang sat on the Purple-Gold Throne, his presence unmistakable.
Ye Wushang remained calm, unfazed by the attention.
His focus was on the saintess-level prodigies flagged by the system as compatible matches.
He knew if he proposed now, most would accept.
Even if they hesitated, they wouldn’t refuse.
But with so many Cave Heaven elders present some of them are family.
Asking them to become his concubines now would provoke outrage.
He decided to wait until after the Soaring Dragon Secret Realm.
Mo Cangfeng reappeared, gazing at the finalized list.
“The rankings are set. You will now represent the Canglan Domain in the Soaring Dragon Secret Realm.”
“This realm connects not just our domain, but all of Tianluo Daozhou dozens of regions.
Only native cultivators may enter.
Victory here doesn’t guarantee safety.
You’ll face elite prodigies from other domains, battle for treasures, and risk your lives.”
As he spoke, a radiant light enveloped the champions.
Ye Wushang and the others felt themselves pulled into a mysterious space.
When they regained awareness, they were surrounded by dense spiritual energy.
Even Ye Wushang had to admit.
It surpassed the core of the Ye clan.
The Soaring Dragon Secret Realm was extraordinary.
He soared into the air.
Though called a secret realm, it was more like a vast Cave Heaven world.
Even Ye Wushang couldn’t explore it all quickly.
Treasure hunting here depended entirely on luck.
Fortunately, Ye Wushang’s luck was excellent.
Soon after arriving, he spotted a Heaven-grade spiritual root.
Without hesitation, he reached for it.
A three-headed lion beast guarding it snarled, eyes full of killing intent.
It had slain many humans before.
But Ye Wushang didn’t flinch.
He was struck with a hand blade.
A flash of blade light.
The beast collapsed, its three heads severed cleanly.
Even in death, it couldn’t believe this human was so much stronger than the others.
Ye Wushang smiled, satisfied, and soared onward.
As the father of Ye Xinqing, the Child of Destiny, his fortune was naturally immense.
He gathered countless treasures and herbs.
Once refined into pills, they would greatly boost the Ye clan’s strength.
Following his instincts, Ye Wushang arrived at a canyon.
There, he found one of his targets.
Dozens of massive lions lounged nearby.
All adults were at Dharma Aspect Realm.
He spotted the Beast King, at Level Eight Dharma Aspect Realm, with Ancient Bloodline.
Its combat power was terrifying.
Its hide was so tough, even peak Dharma Aspect cultivators struggled against it.
That’s how it led its tribe.
Sensing Ye Wushang, the Beast King roared, eyes fierce.
The others rose, shielding their young.
Ye Wushang stepped forward, standing tall before them.
The Beast King roared again, killing intent surging.
It knew humans were treacherous.
Every time the realm opened, its cubs were stolen.
Ye Wushang understood.
To tame them, he had to defeat the Beast King.
As it charged, Ye Wushang didn’t draw his blade.
He clenched his fists and met it head-on.
With Ninefold Golden Body Art (Level Five), plus his dual physiques, Dual-Pupils, and Supreme Bone, His physical strength could crush peers.
A massive shockwave erupted.
Ye Wushang felt the force but stood firm.
The Beast King, however, was forced back, eyes wide in shock.
It hadn’t expected this human to be so powerful.
Ye Wushang remained calm.
To conquer these beasts, he had to beat them at their own game.
