Concentration Attack, a unique ability of the Starry Sky Tier Four Expert, condenses the power of the soul to launch a soul attack on enemies. The lighter effects incapacitate them, while the heavier effects can leave them in a daze, losing all abilities. At this moment, Ye Yang's Concentration Attack was not overly powerful, and Peng Cheng, as a Starry Sky Expert, had strong resistance, so it only temporarily prevented Peng Cheng from attacking.
……
After petrifying Peng Cheng with Concentration Attack, Ye Yang suddenly turned around and swung his energy blade, unleashing a simple slash of blade light without any embellishment.
“Ha!”
Peng Yue shouted fiercely, blocking Ye Yang's attack with the Ironbone Blade crossed over his chest, sending Ye Yang flying back. His eyes were filled with anger and arrogance as he shouted, “Ye Yang, you control Liang City and even half of Qi State. If I were to kill you here, what would happen to Qi State?”
Ye Yang chuckled lightly, “Absolutely impossible!”
At that moment, King Yan suddenly stood up in the stands, his expression serious as he shouted, “That young general, could it be the legendary Fire God Warrior Ye Yang? The one who killed the old dog Ying Zheng?”
Ye Yang turned around and nodded slightly.
King Yan was astonished and after a moment said, “Since your esteemed self has come to our Yan State, why not sit down for a chat?”
“No, at least not until I defeat Peng Yue.”
Ye Yang showed no mercy and firmly rejected King Yan's goodwill. In fact, King Yan was so moved solely because of the 110,000 troops under Ye Yang. Without those soldiers, Ye Yang would likely just be seen as a mere warrior in King Yan's eyes.
Facing Ye Yang's indifference, King Yan was not angry but laughed loudly, saying, “Ye Shao Xia, since you are keen on competing for the Lingxi Sword, how about listening to my words? Regardless of the outcome between you and General Peng Yue, I will appoint you as the General of Yan, granting you a first-class salary. What do you say?”
Ye Yang smiled lightly, “Thank you for your kindness, King Yan. However, there is no need for that. If I want Yan Yao and the Lingxi Sword, I will take them myself without needing any exemption from you. Please wait a moment; within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, I will surely defeat Peng Yue and kill Peng Cheng!”
King Yan nodded slowly and sat down. Finally, he understood that the young man dressed as a Deputy General of Yan was actually the legendary Ye Yang. Ye Yang's reputation had already shaken the lands of Yan and Zhao. The Yan Kingdom, located in the barren north, relied on Qi State for food, warhorses, and textiles, so they could not afford to offend someone like Ye Yang.
Behind King Yan, the black-robed national teacher Si Tu Wen Ruo leaned in closer and whispered in his ear, "Sire, I have long sensed that this young man's strength is extraordinary. Now it has been confirmed that he is indeed the only heir of Hidden Dragon Hall, Ye Yang. Hmph, such a figure is immensely powerful. We must not provoke Ye Yang or Qi State until our military strength is robust. It is rumored that the changes in Qi State's royal power were not due to a shift in military authority but rather because Ye Yang led an army to conquer it. Therefore, we must not take any action against Ye Yang."
King Yan nodded and said, "National Teacher, how could I be unaware? It's just... can Ye Yang contend with the Divine General of Wei Nation, Peng Yue? What if he cannot win?"
Si Tu Wen Ruo smiled and replied, "Sire, you may not know this. Our Yan Kingdom borders Qi, Zhao, and Wei. We are closest to Qi State and somewhat farther from Wei Kingdom. Among the vassal states, everyone fears the Chu Army; however, Wei Kingdom is different. Since King Wei acquired Peng Yue, he has campaigned east and west to reclaim lost territories, having already taken over much of Wei Kingdom from Qin State. Moreover, the Wei Army's edge is quite apparent; they have long harbored intentions toward our Yan Kingdom. To the south lies Qi State, strong and formidable—our greatest threat. Now that our two biggest enemies are at odds with each other, this is heaven's will assisting our Yan Kingdom!"
King Yan was overjoyed and clapped his hands in laughter, saying, "Hahaha! With my national teacher by my side, great things can be accomplished! However, both Ye Yang and Peng Yue are renowned generals of this era. If we could bring them both under our banner, what would we have to fear from Xiang Yu of Western Chu?"
Si Tu Wen Ruo smiled slightly and said, "One cannot capture all fierce tigers. Peng Yue is a formidable general who conquers cities and lands without fail—truly rare indeed. As for Ye Yang, he is a remarkable figure in both civil and martial affairs; both possess overwhelming prowess. With your current military strength, Sire, it would be impossible to subdue these two. This matter requires careful consideration."
King Yan nodded in agreement.
On stage, facing Ye Yang's arrogance, Peng Yue was already furious. Holding his Ironbone Blade, he shouted lowly, "Ye Yang! You were just a ruffian from Liang City yet have risen to such heights! Hmph! Today, I will cleanse the doorsteps with Fire God Technique and send you to the underworld!"
"Fire God Technique?" Ye Yang smiled slightly. "Isn't that a profound Martial Arts Manual only learnable by the Peng family of Fire God Clan? I have no interest in such things; feel free to show me what you've got!"
Peng Yue's expression grew increasingly ferocious as he pushed his energy to its peak state and launched an attack. Flames enveloped his Ironbone Blade as he shouted loudly: "Fire God's Wrath!"
"Hong Hong!"
Surrounded by intense flames, Peng Yue suddenly struck down with a powerful blow!
"Clang!"
Ye Yang blocked it barehanded, the Fire God Fragment True Qi coalescing into a weapon as hard as steel, clashing against Peng Yue's Ironbone Blade. The impact jolted his arm, leaving it numb, but he stood firm, refusing to retreat.
"What's this?!"
Peng Yue was slightly taken aback, not expecting Ye Yang to easily withstand the attack. Furious, he stomped down on the platform, causing countless Starlit Flames to surge into the ground as he shouted, "Fire God Breaks the Sky!"
"Boom!"
A fiery spike erupted from the platform, sending debris flying into the air. Ye Yang stood right at the energy center of Fire God Breaks the Sky. The overwhelming energy struck him, momentarily stunning him and sending excruciating pain throughout his body. Indeed, the advanced Fire God Technique's high-level Mind Method was formidable, yet it had been hoarded by that old man Peng Feng. Without the three techniques taught by the Fire God, he would have already been defeated due to his long-term lack of high-level Martial Arts Manuals.
...
"Ha!"
With a roar, the flames dispersed as Ye Yang stood majestically in mid-air. The surrounding Starlight Power surged forth, dissipating Peng Yue's gathered energy. His golden eyes locked onto his opponent as he coldly declared, "Peng Yue, next, let me show you what true Fire God Technique is!"
Peng Yue was stunned, a glimmer of despair in his eyes. His full-force strike had been blocked so easily by Ye Yang. The powerful and fierce Fire God Breaks the Sky could incinerate even a Starry Sky Level Three expert completely; yet this kid before him seemed to disregard such an attack entirely.
"Hong!"
Crimson flames surged around Ye Yang's arm as he suddenly charged forward, shouting, "Fire God Three Techniques, Purgatory Flame Blade!"
"Clang!"
Amid the sound of the clash, Peng Yue raised the Ironbone Blade to defend, his body jolted back repeatedly, blood spitting from his mouth. He suffered internal injuries from a single strike; the strength of this young man was unfathomable!
...
A fierce follow-up attack came as Ye Yang soared from above, his palm condensing into a blade, launching a second strike: "Ha! Fire God Three Styles, Divine Oracle Descends!"
In an instant, Peng Yue's face turned ashen. The next moment, he was sent flying like a withered leaf by Ye Yang's onslaught.
"Oh my God, Peng Yue has been defeated..."
Below the stage, heroes from all directions were stunned. The legendary Divine Weapon Peng Yue, who was honored by King Wei with the might of the nation and held the title of Fire God Warrior, had actually been defeated by a mere boy. Moreover, that boy attacked barehanded while Peng Yue wielded the Ironbone Blade and was protected by the Water God Shield. Even so, he still lost—miserably!
"It's over; Peng Yue is going to be killed. Ye Yang will never allow Wei Kingdom to possess such a Divine Weapon as Peng Yue. That would be a threat to the neighboring Qi State..."
"Indeed, Peng Yue is doomed!"
A crowd murmured in discussion, many sweating for Peng Yue because Ye Yang had no reason not to kill him.
...
However, at that moment, Peng Yue suddenly flipped in mid-air, skillfully soaring backward and tracing an arc before landing on the high platform behind King Yan!
Immediately, Si Tu Wen Ruo exclaimed in shock: "General Peng Yue, what are you doing?!"
Peng Yue, with a fierce expression and covered in blood, laughed loudly: “King Yan Sire, my Battle Blade is not sharp enough. I’ll borrow your Lingxi Sword to defeat Ye Yang. I hope Sire won’t hide your treasures!”
Si Tu Wen Ruo shouted angrily: “Bold Peng Yue, do you dare to defy authority?”
Peng Yue retorted furiously: “I am a general of the Wei Kingdom. How can I be defying authority? Today, I will borrow this Lingxi Sword, whether you agree or not!”
“Boldly seeking death!”
Si Tu Wen Ruo waved his robe, and the Starlight Power surged. With one hand outstretched, his fingers curled like eagle claws, glowing with green True Qi, reaching for his opponent.
“Ha ha ha ha…”
Peng Yue laughed maniacally, lightly raising his arm and suddenly striking under Si Tu Wen Ruo's armpit. He then lifted his right leg, infused with intense fiery True Qi, shouting: “With a weak scholar like you, how dare you block me?”
“Bang!”
With a heavy thud, Si Tu Wen Ruo was no match for the Starry Sky Level Three powerhouse Peng Yue. In one encounter, he was already defeated, slowly crouching down while clutching his chest; his ribs had been shattered by Peng Yue's kick. Clearly, despite both being in the Stellar Realm, the gap between Si Tu Wen Ruo and Peng Yue was insurmountable.
King Yan stood up angrily: “Bold Peng Yue, do you dare to disrespect me like this?”
Peng Yue kicked Si Tu Wen Ruo over and sneered: “What if I disrespect you? Hmph, in this barren and cold land of the Yan Kingdom, how dare you hide such a treasure as the Lingxi Sword! This time, I will take the Lingxi Sword back to the Wei Kingdom, commanding the world. Let’s see who dares to disobey!”
King Yan hurriedly ordered the guards to stop him, but those guards did not dare to approach at all. Just one glance from Peng Yue was enough to silence them; after all, the pressure of a Starry Sky Expert was terrifying.
At that moment, Yan Yao suddenly stood up, her beautiful face filled with anger: “Hmph, this audacious thief thinks there’s no one left in my Yan Kingdom!”
The princess in front of them was about to take action herself. Yun Xiaoxi suddenly reached out and pressed her hand on Yan Yao's shoulder, saying, "Don't go, or you'll be killed. Peng Yue has gone mad; he will kill you."
As she spoke, Yun Xiaoxi's beautiful eyes swept toward the rushing Yuwen Shang. In an instant, a glimmer of brilliance flashed in her stunning gaze. Yuwen Shang fell to the ground, kneeling there with his long sword in hand, unable to move another step. Indeed, Yun Xiaoxi's Concentration Attack was executed with perfect precision; she merely directed Yuwen Shang to his doom without actually killing him.
...
Consumed by rage, Peng Yue hurried to the edge of the platform. He paid no attention to Yun Xiaoxi beside Princess Yan Yao and was unaware that this maid possessed the strength to kill him. His focus was solely on the Lingxi Sword atop the high platform.
"Crack!"
With a powerful leap, Peng Yue sprang into the air, reaching out with incredible accuracy. With a loud snap, he firmly grasped the Lingxi Sword in his hand. Suspended in mid-air, the wind howled through his battle robe as he laughed heartily, gripping the sword hilt and exerting force. Accompanied by a crisp sound of the sword's song, the Edge of the Lingxi Sword was revealed!
...
"Hahaha, Ye Yang, your time of death has come!"
