LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 74
Chapter 74: The Invincible Prince Bei
“Prince Bei, I didn’t catch that. What did you just say?” Mo Huai asked, a bit uncertain.
“Tsk~ hss~ You all want to challenge, right? It’s too troublesome to have everyone go up one by one. It’s getting dark, and I can’t exactly let you stay overnight in the palace, can I?”
“Alright, stop dawdling, the challenge starts now.”
“Wait!…”
Mo Huai wanted to say, wait a moment, having so many people fight one person doesn’t match their status.
However…
The next moment, he was sent flying over a hundred meters…
The others exchanged glances, confusion etched on their faces.
Qin Bei was serious about this.
He didn’t hold back at all.
Bang!
Just as they were still reeling from shock, the one closest to Qin Bei was sent flying again.
Even after preparing for it, he was still hit hard enough to spit blood and fly backward.
Puff~
The remaining eight turned to look at Mo Huai and the others.
Their faces turned extremely pale.
Because after Mo Huai and the others were knocked away, they couldn’t move anymore.
All they could do was watch as blood trickled from the corners of their mouths.
Their chests caved in significantly.
If he added a bit more strength, those two might not just be seriously injured.
“This… How could you be so strong?”
“Stop standing around! Let’s all go together!”
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Although the eight of them were trying their best.
They even used Heavenly Grade Martial Arts.
But the outcome was no different from Mo Huai.
Qin Bei didn’t even need to throw a second punch to deal with the same opponent.
Tsk~ Sigh~ Why must you make me take action?
Qin Bei shook his head, looking at the ten fallen individuals.
He had already gone easy on them.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t just be seriously injured.
One full-strength punch from Qin Bei, let’s be honest, even if a Golden Core expert came along, it would only end one way.
“Butler, take them to the nearest clinic.”
Qin Bei commanded the butler who had been waiting off to the side.
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“The medical expenses will be covered by my prince’s mansion.”
“Yes.”
Although Mo Huai and the others who were knocked down didn’t dare to move now, they were still conscious.
After hearing what Qin Bei said, they spat out another mouthful of old blood.
This is too much!
This is simply shameless!
Mo Huai wanted to slap himself twice.
He had just thought that Qin Bei was not as the rumors suggested, but actually a loyal and honest prince.
In the end…
They had misjudged him!
Clearly, Qin Bei had seen right through their intentions.
They had fallen for it so easily…
What a ridiculous loss!
…….
After watching the servants carry away the ten fallen individuals, Qin Bei was ready to take Qin Xuan back to the mansion.
“Prince Bei!”
At that moment, Ye Jianxiu’s voice rang out.
“What is it? Brother Ye.”
Ye Jianxiu: …
Just now, hearing “Brother Ye” felt so pleasant…
But now…
Seeing the situation, even he, dull as he may be, understood what had just happened.
What mysterious power? What defeating Qin Bei?
All fake.
He could defeat Qin Bei? That was entirely by the other party’s intention.
To make it look more convincing, so Mo Huai and the others wouldn’t notice anything unusual.
Qin Bei even helped him out…
Thinking about it, helping others only to hurt oneself…
That’s absurd…
In other words, he found it difficult to even hurt Qin Bei while he stood still.
With this realization, Ye Jianxiu started doubting himself for the first time.
Am I really the number one in the Cangzhou Continental Combat Power List?
Why can’t I do anything against someone at the sixth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm…
Or is Qin Bei truly only at the Foundation Establishment level?
Isn’t this strength a bit ridiculous?
“Prince Bei, I want to have a real battle with you.”
Ye Jianxiu said, gripping his sword and cupping his fist.
Qin Bei glanced at Ye Jianxiu.
Then he nodded.
“Alright, go ahead and attack with your strongest move.”
“Then I will strike!”
With his words, the sword in Ye Jianxiu’s hand emitted a ringing sound.
He launched his strongest attack.
“Five Elements Sword Technique, First Form: All Grass and Trees Decay!”
The Five Elements Sword Technique is a mid-level Divine Grade magical ability and also a renowned powerful art of the Sword Sect.
Although Ye Jianxiu had only mastered the first form, it’s still a Divine Grade skill!
Moreover, this strike contained all of his spiritual energy.
Coupling it with his budding comprehension of sword intent, it was more than sufficient to take down a Golden Core cultivator.
Ye Jianxiu’s thought process was quite simple.
Even if this attack couldn’t defeat Qin Bei,
At the very least, it should force Qin Bei to use his full strength.
Thus, he could gauge the gap in strength between himself and Qin Bei.
However, as his sword approached Qin Bei,
Qin Bei didn’t move at all.
He thought Qin Bei was going to stand there without resisting.
But the next moment, his sword came to a halt.
In front of him, Qin Bei held Qin Xuan’s chubby hand with one hand.
With the other hand raised, two fingers firmly pinched Ye Jianxiu’s sword.
Ye Jianxiu believed this was the strongest attack, enough to make Qin Bei unleash his full strength.
Yet…
The reality was that Qin Bei effortlessly neutralized his attack.
Ding~
Qin Bei flicked his index finger against the sword, and the Earth Grade sword let out a crisp ringing sound.
In the next moment, Ye Jianxiu’s hand began to tremble.
Puff~
He spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered backward.
Ye Jianxiu finally lost hold of the sword in his hand, which dropped to the ground.
Ding~
Ding~
Ding~
A more horrifying sight occurred.
The sword that hit the ground shattered into countless pieces.
It became a broken weapon.
“You!…”
Ye Jianxiu held back the pain in his chest, utterly shocked, staring at Qin Bei.
Qin Bei had acted so casually, yet was able to transfer force through Ye Jianxiu’s sword.
Ultimately, it hurt himself.
The sword, as a medium, bore more force than he did.
In the end, it couldn’t take it anymore and shattered.
Tsk~ What a pity, the power wasn’t controlled well. Such a fine weapon wasted.
Qin Bei shook his head and said.
“Brother Ye, halting progress for the sake of a ranking doesn’t make for a wise choice. It’s not just about effort; talent and opportunity are far more important.”
Qin Bei advised, then walked through the palace gates with Qin Xuan.
Leaving Ye Jianxiu sitting there dazed.
His mind replayed the scene from their encounter.
For the first time, Ye Jianxiu truly understood what it meant to be invincible.
Even though Qin Bei’s cultivation was lower than his own.
After their battle, Ye Jianxiu was left with a single thought in mind.
From this day forward, no matter how much he improved,
He would never be able to compete with Qin Bei.
And Qin Bei’s final piece of advice was thoroughly impressed into his mind.
He had already stood at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm for half a year.
The reason he hadn’t broken through was because he wanted to try to get into the combat power rankings for the cultivation world.
For the last six months, he had been particularly attentive to every update of the rankings.
Yet, not a single time had he managed to storm into the combat power list of the cultivation world.
The credibility of the cultivation world’s combat power rankings is incredibly high.
The strongest hundred people from all of history.
After hearing Qin Bei’s words, he understood.
There’s no need for him to cling to this anymore.
Thinking of this, he sat cross-legged.
And broke through right there.
