Chapter 141: Like a God! Like An Invincible Expert! The Third Generation Fails!

　　In the combat arena of the Jin Nation Academy.

　　When the third generation disciples saw Ye Ping, they shrieked.

　　They were extremely excited because they were usually bored in the Jin Nation Academy and there was generally nothing for them to do everyday apart from listening to the Dao preachings.

　　In particular, the entire sect had entered a state of frantic cultivation because of the Ten Nations Grand Tournament that was round the corner.

　　The long hours of crazy cultivation made that group of third generation disciples incredibly depressed.

　　Now that there was such a freak in the Jin Nation Academy, the group of third generation disciples were naturally excited.

　　Ye Ping, who was on the battlefield, couldn’t help but frown.

　　‘Why is there a new batch again?’

　　Ye Ping honestly didn’t want to continue fighting anymore.

　　It was not that he looked down on those cultivators, but rather, a battle between members of the same realm in order to hone one’s skills.

　　To put it bluntly, if their strength was equal, it would sharpen their will in the martial Dao.

　　However, there was no other benefit apart from a sense of vanity if he simply suppressed them.

　　In fact, if he suppressed the enemies for a long time without a battle, he would not get to grow. In this case, there would be effects in the long run.

　　Those were the things that Ye Ping had perceived through the Ancient True Dragon Fist.

　　However, regardless of whether Ye Ping wanted to fight or not, this group of third generation disciples didn’t care so much as they simply jumped onto the battlefield.

　　“Kill!”

　　“Senior Brothers, let’s strike together and suppress this guy.”

　　“This guy’s Qi is really intense. If I didn’t know, I would have thought I was facing a real dragon.”

　　“It’s rare to find such a young cultivator with such vigorous Qi and blood. Seems like the physical cultivation lineage is going to rise.”

　　“I heard that there is an unparalleled physical cultivator in the Ten Nations Academy. I didn’t expect that the Jin Nation country has also produced one.”

　　The group of third generation disciples stepped onto the arena and looked at Ye Ping ferociously.

　　Although they had come over to beat Ye Ping, they had to admit that Ye Ping was strong, and thus they did not show any contempt and knew that they still had to fight.

　　Before Ye Ping had risen completely, they would hurry and beat him up lest they never get to do so again.

　　With that thought in mind, the third generation disciples got even more agitated.

　　The Jin Nation Academy advocated martial arts combat. As long as no one was killed, they would be free to fight however they wanted. If they failed they would just cultivate harder before beating him up again.

　　Of course, a martial arts battle was different from a battle between enemies.

　　There were pros and cons to such a method. The pros were that it could spark their will to fight, but one of the cons was it would easily result in violence.

　　However, each academy had its unique will, depending on the dynasty’s environment.

　　Jin Nation was considered one of the worst in the Ten Nations, and hence, it was necessary to enforce stronger policies in such an environment.

　　Boom!

　　At this moment, someone threw a punch and the light was a dazzling green color. His aura was like that of a ferocious beast.

　　In an instant, Ye Ping instantly struck, his fist shining like a golden wheel that was as dazzling as the sun.

　　Boom!

　　The third generation disciple struck and his body was as tough as a steel tower. His fist glowed brightly, colliding with Ye Ping’s.

　　Ka-cha.

　　The sound of bones breaking filled the air as the third generation disciple’s arm was broken and he was blasted away.

　　That wasn’t all. The power from Ye Ping’s body formed a terrifying impact that sent the dozens of people flying at once.

　　They immediately vomited blood, as if they had been struck by thunder.

　　The figures flew out. Even though they were the third generation disciples, they couldn’t resist against Ye Ping’s divine fist.

　　Ye Ping was too ferocious as he could destroy heaven and earth. His fists were like dragons and his palms godly, each of his strikes came with a massive sound.

　　It was as if the void was about to be shattered too.

　　That was Ye Ping’s physical body strength, so powerful that it was outrageous.

　　Once a physical cultivator condensed the Blood and Qi Furnace and turned their Dharmic powers into pure power, they would be almost invincible in close combat, unless their opponent could also condense the Blood and Qi Furnace.

　　Hence, if they really wanted to defeat Ye Ping, the only way to do so would be through a siege. The third generation disciples were very clear about that. Although they were shameless, they were not stupid.

　　After all, it would be almost impossible to win.

　　The reason being it was a physical battle between physical cultivators. If it were a Dao battle, things would be different.

　　In the event of facing hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators who cast one Dharmic Dao each, even Ye Ping would not be able to resist it.

　　However, Ye Ping could defeat everyone with one move.

　　Pfft.

　　The third generation disciples were like raindrops. As they fell onto the ground, they coughed blood and seemed to be suffering from serious injuries.

　　Fortunately, their foundation was not hurt.

　　At this moment, all the newly matriculated disciples were dumbfounded.

　　They were astonished as they watched everything in horror.

　　They knew that Ye Ping was ferocious and overpowering.

　　However, they didn’t expect Ye Ping to be this menacing.

　　He could even fight the third generation Senior Brothers.

　　That was extremely outrageous.

　　However, there were still some third generation disciples who were surrounding Ye Ping on the battlefield.

　　Although they were shameless and used a siege, they had a bottom line and did not use Dharmic Dao.

　　However, for Ye Ping, this kind of battle was completely meaningless.

　　Although the physical bodies of these people were strong, they were simply fragile compared to Ye Ping.

　　Ye Ping condensed the Blood and Qi Furnace and his vitality had been perfected. His fists were emitting a golden glow and he was surrounded by wisps of black gas. His absolutely handsome face made him look like an immortal god.

　　His physical body was terrifying as no one could move him at all.

　　That was Ye Ping’s current strength.

　　Under the augmentation of the Ancient Godfiend Body and the Torch Dragon Ancient Seal, Ye Ping’s physical body was just like a treasure.

　　The only pity was that he was not yet perfect in martial arts, otherwise, why would he need to fight here?

　　He would have defeated all of them with a single move.

　　Roar!

　　However, at this moment, Ye Ping’s vitality and spirit were fused and the furnace behind him transformed into a blazing dragon-shaped light, which was ten feet in size.

　　In an instant, it jerked all the third generation disciples away.

　　No one could resist Ye Ping’s attack, he was too invincible and had left them feeling hopeless.

　　In the blink of an eye, the combat arena was quiet.

　　Everyone looked at Ye Ping with some bewilderment.

　　It was dead silent.

　　It was an unprecedented event in the history of the Jin Nation Academy.

　　A newly matriculated disciple defeating all the older generation disciples was already incredible, and Ye Ping not only defeated the fourth generation disciples but also the third generation disciples on his own.

　　It was astonishing.

　　“Senior Brother Ye is invincible.”

　　While everyone was shocked, a voice suddenly sounded.

　　It belonged to Mo Xuan.

　　She was the first to come back to her senses, and her beautiful eyes were filled with shock and excitement.

　　She did not expect Ye Ping, who had entered with her, to be so terrifying. She swallowed her saliva and made up her mind to cozy up to him.

　　As Mo Xuan spoke, all the newly matriculated disciples could not help but come back to their senses in an instant.

　　Soon, there were voices.

　　“Senior Brother Ye is invincible.”

　　“Senior Brother Ye, you’re really ferocious.”

　　‘This… is a little too exaggerated, isn’t it?’

　　“I have an illusion that the Jin Nation Academy is going to rise.”

　　“Aren’t you stating the obvious? If we still don’t rise this time, the Jin Nation Academy can close down.”

　　“I thought I was the strongest among this batch of newly matriculated disciples, it seems that I have to give this position away.”

　　“You? The strongest? Have you got any shame?”

　　The crowd discussed and started clamoring.

　　With his own strength, Ye Ping had suppressed almost all the disciples of the fourth and third generations of the Jin Nation Academy.

　　Although he had only used the power of the physical body to suppress everything, it was still a suppression, and at this point, no one dared to deny that Ye Ping was powerful.

　　At this moment, on the battlefield, Ye Ping looked at Li Yan and Xu Chao.

　　The two of them had been lying on the ground and watching the third generation disciples fight ever since they were injured by Ye Ping.

　　Now that they felt Ye Ping’s gaze, the two of them couldn’t help but feel a chill down their spines as they subconsciously thought that Ye Ping wanted to continue to fight.

　　Thinking of this, Li Yan could not help but bear with the pain of his injuries.

　　“Ye Ping, you have passed this test, there is no need to fight again.”

　　Li Yan said.

　　In his eyes, Ye Ping was almost a battle fanatic, so he didn’t want to give Ye Ping the chance to continue fighting.

　　Otherwise, if that went on, no one would be able to withstand Ye Ping’s attacks.

　　On the battlefield, Ye Ping could not help but sigh with relief after hearing Li Yan say that he had passed the test.

　　Ye Ping was relieved, not because he dared not continue to fight, but because he felt that it was simply meaningless.

　　Hence, he thought that it would be better to end it sooner.

　　“Thank you for your teachings, Senior Brothers.”

　　After it ended, Ye Ping wasn’t arrogant either. Instead, he bowed to them and got up immediately afterwards to walk towards a woman.

　　It was Princess Taihe.

　　Ye Ping had seen Princess Taihe’s portrait, so he recognized Princess Taihe at a glance.

　　At this moment, Princess Taihe was wearing the disciples’ robe of Jin Nation Academy, looking valiant and less effeminate.

　　Princess Taihe was a ravishing beauty.

　　After all, she was a princess so her genes were naturally not bad.

　　Looking at the approaching Ye Ping, Princess Taihe was excited.

　　“You must be Li Yu’s sister, Li Yue.”

　　Soon, Ye Ping came in front of Princess Taihe and asked that question while ignoring others.

　　“Greetings Senior Brother Ye, I am indeed Li Yue.”

　　Hearing Ye Ping call out her name, Li Yue’s heart pounded rapidly.

　　After all, Ye Ping had formed a deep impression on her when he dominated the battle just now.

　　Which woman wouldn’t like such a man?

　　Besides, Ye Ping had good looks and was elegant. All the girls of the fifth generation disciples were fond of him.

　　“In terms of seniority, Li Yu is my in-name disciple and you’re my junior, but since we are in Jin Nation Academy, you should call me Senior Brother.”

　　“Junior Sister Li Yue, can you take me to the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion of the academy? I’d like to read some books.”

　　Hearing Li Yue’s reply, Ye Ping nodded. He looked gentle and refined, making him likable.

　　“Kṣitigarbha Pavilion? Sure, Senior Brother Ye, come with me. I will take you to the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion.”

　　Li Yue was a little surprised, not knowing why Ye Ping wanted to go to the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion, but she soon agreed and brought him there.

　　“Thank you so much, Junior Sister.”

　　Ye Ping thanked Li Yue who hurriedly shook her head and said, “It’s only my duty. Don’t stand on ceremony, Senior Brother Ye.”

　　Li Yue replied and led Ye Ping away without uttering another word.

　　Hence, Li Yue took Ye Ping away while everyone watched.

　　However, as Li Yue was leaving, she took a glance at Li Yan and Xu Chao as well as the other third generation disciples.

　　She was somewhat breaking the rules by taking Ye Ping away. After all, without her Senior Brother’s permission, she would not be allowed to leave on her own.

　　Those were the rules.

　　However, when Li Yue’s gaze fell on this group of fourth and third generation disciples, none of them dared to look directly at her.

　　Not a single person dared to stop Ye Ping either.

　　Who would dare to stop him?

　　They were afraid of getting beaten up.

　　Seeing that none of the Senior Brothers dared to look at her, Li Yue immediately understood what was going on.

　　Without further ado, she led Ye Ping away.

　　After leaving the combat arena, Li Yue, who was walking ahead, finally couldn’t help but speak.

　　“Senior Brother Ye, you’re too ferocious. You’re the strongest man I have ever seen.”

　　“You have no idea. These Senior Brothers are usually arrogant and tyrannical as they treat us newly matriculated disciples like their servants. They force us to be at their beck and call.”

　　“However, after today, this group of Senior Brothers will probably all behave themselves.”

　　Li Yue sounded extremely agitated and excited.

　　She was right. These days, they had been leading a tough life.

　　Outside, they were all geniuses from all over the Jin Nation. Although they might not be the best, they were still elites whom everyone respected.

　　However, after they came to the Jin Nation Academy, they were all subjected to bullying and unbearable suffering.

　　“There may not be a hierarchy in the Jin Nation Academy, but they shouldn’t bully the disciples, right?”

　　On the way to the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion, Ye Ping became somewhat curious.

　　He didn’t know much about the Jin Nation Academy but Li Yu had mentioned it during the journey there.

　　To be able to become a national academy, it should be the example of all the sects and academies in the entire Jin Nation, right?

　　How could they bully the newbies? That seemed to be unreasonable.

　　“Senior Brother Ye, you may have grown up living in a sect, so you don’t know much about the outside world.”

　　“The Jin Nation Academy is special. After all, it is one of the best academies in the Ten Nations. In the earlier years, the Jin Nation Academy was just like an ordinary academy.”

　　“Later on, they realized that this approach is difficult to truly motivate geniuses. Besides, the last head of the academy was said to be from the Great Xia Academic Palace, so they changed the teaching style.”

　　“They hope to motivate the disciples through this suppression. Although this approach has resulted in many flaws, the Jin Nation Academy has indeed produced many geniuses.”

　　“There’s no doubt about that.”

　　Li Yue explained the flaws of the Jin Nation Academy.

　　Hearing this, Ye Ping nodded slightly.

　　After some careful thought, he realized that it was true.

　　After all, the people of the world lived in worry and died in peace.

　　An academy that could really inspire everyone’s fighting spirit would indeed have to spur them to fight for what they wanted so as to produce a true genius.

　　If all the resources were given by the sect, the genius would be pampered and fragile even if he could become one.

　　Just about everything has advantages and disadvantages, and it all depends on the individual.

　　However, Ye Ping was not resistant to that and he instead felt that there would be joy only if there was competition. It would indeed be boring if everything went by the book.

　　Just like that, Ye Ping arrived at the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion.

　　The Kṣitigarbha Pavilion of the Jin Nation Academy was a pagoda with eight floors in total.

　　Even in the Jin Nation Academy, the number nine was taboo. Hence, there were only eight floors.

　　Standing in the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion, Ye Ping could not help but smile.

　　Previously, he had already thought about what he was going to do.

　　He would read.

　　Yes, he would read books.

　　Ye Ping still didn’t know much about the world of immortal cultivation.

　　Ye Ping wanted to completely understand something. At least, he wanted to know more than he did now.

　　Otherwise, he would have to keep asking everyone about everything if he stayed clueless.

　　Besides, the Qingyun Dao Sect was a hidden sect, and there was no other information other than the Qingyun records.

　　Ye Ping learned from Li Yu that the Jin Nation Academy not only gathered all the talents of Jin Nation, but also the books of strange tales and secret manuals.

　　The answers to all questions could be found in the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion.

　　Hence, Ye Ping confirmed his plan.

　　He decided to first go to the Jin Nation Academy to read some books.

　　He would then see if he could comprehend the supreme sword intent hidden in the Jin Nation Academy.

　　If he could, he would be able to kill two birds with one stone.

　　That was the reason why Ye Ping asked Li Yue to bring him there after the assessment.

　　“Junior Sister Li, you may go back and get busy with your own matters, I plan to stay here for a few days.”

　　In the Kṣitigarbha Pavilion, Ye Ping looked at Li Yue and said. He intended to spend a few days reading some books in Kṣitigarbha Pavilion.

　　“Alright, I’ll take my leave then, Senior Brother Ye. If there’s anything, I’ll come and see you again.”

　　Li Yue nodded obediently.

　　“Okay, if there’s anything, feel free to come to me. No matter what, you are Li Yu’s sister. I will help you as much as possible.”

　　Ye Ping nodded and said.

　　“Thank you for taking care of me, Senior Brother.”

　　Li Yue was overjoyed. Immediately afterwards, she watched Ye Ping walk into Kṣitigarbha Pavilion, and she then returned to the combat arena.

　　At this moment, in the Academy Master’s main hall.

　　Basically, all the senior members of Jin Nation Academy were gathered in the main hall to discuss the Ten Nations Grand Tournament.

　　In the main hall, the head of the school, Li Mocheng, frowned and looked at the crowd.

　　“The Ten Nations Grand Tournament is just around the corner, and according to the information we’ve received, the Li Nation, Chen Nation, and Shang Nation have each produced a great genius while the Jin Nation Academy has been getting worse.”

　　‘If this goes on, the Jin Nation Academy will sooner or later be eliminated by the Ten Nations. And if we don’t do something about it, the Jin Nation Academy will cease.”

　　In the middle of the main hall, Li Mocheng sounded a little agitated.

　　He was a little furious because he had been helming the Jin Nation Academy for 15 years, and yet he failed to produce a true genius, causing the Jin Nation to continuously be in the doldrums.

　　How could Li Mocheng not be furious?

　　However, at this moment, before the other elders could answer, the door of the main hall was suddenly pushed open.

　　“Demon! Demon! Demon!”

　　There was a white-haired old man outside the door who was extremely agitated.

　　A voice sounded.

　　In the middle of the main hall, dozens of elders stood up with grim expressions.

　　“What’s happening?”

　　“Have the demons invaded?”

　　“Is the Fiendcelestial Cult attacking the Jin Nation?”

　　The elders seemed to be rather curious.

　　Even the Academy Master, Li Mocheng, couldn’t help but stand up and look at the old man.

　　“No, no, it’s not the Fiendcelestial Cult, but our academy. There’s a demonic disciple in our academy.”

　　“His name is Ye Ping or something. He challenged the fourth generation and third generation disciples by himself. He’s only in his early twenties, but he has already condensed the Blood and Qi Furnace.”

　　The elder was so agitated that he stammered.

　　However, in the next moment, all the elders in the hall were dumbfounded.
