41: Above the sequence! Named the Holy Son!

Sword Dust conceded defeat.

He was a straightforward person. For Chen Yi to be able to fight him to this extent with a Purple Mansion Realm cultivation, strictly speaking, he had already lost long ago.

Not to mention now, Chen Yi himself was unharmed, yet he had made Sword Dust vomit blood.

Even if he still had the strength to fight, there was no need to continue. Continuing would only make him a laughingstock.

The moment Sword Dust admitted defeat, a beam of light descended from the sky, teleporting him away.

Chen Yi then looked at the other person inside the Illusory Void Formation besides himself, Red Hua.

He said indifferently, “Senior Sister Red Hua, do you want to fight me? Although I’ve consumed a lot of True Essence, I can still fight another round.”

Red Hua looked at him, recovering from her shock, then smiled and said, “Junior Brother Chen Yi really likes to joke. How could I bear to hurt you?”

“Is it that you can’t bear to hurt me, or that you can’t hurt me? Or are you afraid of being abused by me?”

Chen Yi said indifferently, showing no mercy with his words.

Red Hua looked at him and said faintly, “Junior Brother, this is where you’re not very cute; your words are too hurtful.”

“Sorry, I was just being a little honest.”

“I’m ignoring you.”

“Thank you, that way, I’ll have much more peace and quiet.”

Red Hua was so annoyed by his words that she gritted her teeth. This guy, does he even know how to chat?!

Does he have to be so blunt?!

Can’t he just coax me a little?

Can’t he be a little gentler with me?

Alright.

Thinking of Chen Yi’s Path of Emotional Detachment, she felt that her idea was a bit unrealistic.

“Ding! Host is insensitive! Rewarding Host with one bottle of Dragon Tiger Pill!”

Dragon Tiger Pill is a Medicinal Pill that can be used to enhance Physical Body strength.

This time in the Sequence Competition, Chen Yi’s Physical Body strength greatly helped him, and he felt it was necessary to continue improving it in the future.

He was quite satisfied with this Dragon Tiger Pill.

And Red Hua looked at Chen Yi and said, “Alright, I’m not talking about these pointless things with you anymore. You’ve really stolen the show in this Sequence Competition! Even Sword Dust lost to you, so of course I won’t be your opponent. I concede!”

After she finished speaking, a flash of light appeared in front of Chen Yi, and Red Hua was also teleported away.

Only Chen Yi remained in the entire Illusory Void Formation.

He looked around, a little puzzled.

How do I leave?

Outside the Illusory Void Formation.

When the Elders saw Chen Yi display three phenomena, they all fell silent.

Elder Yunxiao said, “Three phenomena. Has our Yuhua Sect ever had such a Prodigy?”

“It seems, probably, no.”

“Even his Revered Master Liu Wuqing only had two phenomena, although the strength of those two phenomena was a bit terrifying.”

“Goodness, possessing three phenomena, this guy can not only sweep through those of the same Realm, but even Martial Artists with higher cultivation are very likely to be suppressed by him!!”

“Prodigy, this is a well-deserved Prodigy!”

“What do you say? Should we list him as Sequence One?”

The Elders discussed animatedly.

At this moment, a voice came from within the main hall, “Elders, please come in for discussion.”

It was Yu Hua Sect Master’s voice.

Everyone entered the main hall.

Yu Hua Sect Master was well aware of what had happened inside the Illusory Void Formation. He said indifferently, “Everyone, where do you think it’s most appropriate to place Chen Yi in the sequence?”

“Sequence One, it must be Sequence One!”

“Even Sword Dust was defeated, plus his talent and potential, it’s completely unreasonable not to give him Sequence One.”

“Indeed, it must be given!”

Although the Elders usually had some disputes, their opinions were surprisingly consistent on this matter.

Apparently, Chen Yi’s talent had already conquered them.

Elder Yunxiao said, “Possessing the Pure Yang Body and three great phenomena, plus cultivating to the Purple Mansion Realm at such a young age, and having impressive attainments in Body Refining and sword arts—these alone are enough for him to become Sequence One!”

“Not to mention, his Heart-Nature is extraordinary! The Heart-Nature test set by Elder Hu Shuang, even we might not be able to pass, but he did.”

“His future achievements will surely surpass all of us!”

After listening to Elder Yunxiao, Yu Hua Sect Master smiled faintly, not objecting, “Sequence One, I’m afraid that’s not enough…”

The Elders exchanged glances upon hearing this.

Sequence One isn’t enough?

What identity should they give Chen Yi then?

At this moment, Luo Qinghuang thought of something and said, “Everyone, how about we first release Chen Yi from the Illusory Void Formation?”

Everyone was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, then suddenly realized.

“Oh, right, I almost forgot about that.”

“Let’s not let this little fellow get too bored.”

The several people immediately cast spells, releasing Chen Yi from the Illusory Void Formation.

On the plaza in front of the main hall, numerous Disciples gathered, whispering to each other, all waiting for the assessment results.

Some people were replaying the battles.

Especially those few Sequence Disciples, standing at the very front, exchanging glances, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Senior Brother Dao Taiyi glanced at the spear in Senior Brother Yun Yang’s hand, which was almost bent into a semicircle, and smiled, “Senior Brother Yun Yang, why is your silver spear bent like this?”

And Senior Brother Yun Yang looked at the oiled paper umbrella on Senior Brother Dao Taiyi’s back, with broken ribs and damaged paper, and smiled, “Why has your oiled paper umbrella become so tattered?”

The two looked at each other, then Senior Brother Dao Taiyi said faintly, “You didn’t happen to run into Junior Brother Chen Yi, did you?”

“You too?”

The two immediately felt a sense of shared suffering, then sighed in unison.

A sigh also came from nearby.

Ghost Mystic looked at his bandaged finger and couldn’t help but sigh, lamenting, “How can someone’s Physical Body be so hard? My finger, which can pierce through metal, couldn’t penetrate it, and it even broke.”

“Who did you run into?”

“Junior Brother Chen Yi.”

“So that’s it.” The two looked at Ghost Mystic, not surprised at all.

And Ghost Mystic continued, “Actually, we’re still pretty good. I heard that guy Zhao Qing is still lying down.”

“He lost too?”

“Nonsense, we all lost. Can Zhao Qing, facing Junior Brother Chen Yi, win?”

“So, almost half of the Sequence Disciples were defeated by Junior Brother Chen Yi?”

The several people exchanged glances, then quietly cursed under their breath, “Monster.”

At this moment.

Two figures appeared before them.

It was Sword Dust, and Red Hua.

They were the last two to emerge from the Illusory Void Formation.

But the crowd did not see Chen Yi’s figure. They couldn’t help but think of something, and a hint of shock appeared in their eyes.

Senior Brother Dao Taiyi walked up and tentatively asked, “You, you wouldn’t be…”

“Indeed, it’s as you think, we lost.”

Sword Dust admitted it generously.

The several people gasped!

Even Sequence One Sword Dust was defeated?!!

Is this new Junior Brother going to be Heaven-Defying?!!

After a while longer.

The Illusory Void Formation disappeared, and a figure gradually emerged with the dissipating light of the Formation.

Everyone’s gaze was fixed on this last person to emerge, with curiosity and awe in their eyes!

“He is the final victor?!”

“It’s actually not Sword Dust!”

“He is… Junior Brother Chen Yi!”

“Junior Brother Chen Yi can actually become the final victor?!”

“Oh my goodness, this is too astonishing.”

At this moment, inside the main hall, the Elders slowly walked out. Elder Yunxiao held a list in his hand and said, “Next, I will announce the list of Sequence Disciples for this time!”

“Sequence Ten, Yu Ling’er!”

As soon as the first name was announced, everyone was somewhat surprised.

Everyone looked at Yu Ling’er.

And a hint of smugness appeared on her face, “I’ve been messing around in Golden Core for so long, what’s wrong with letting me be a Sequence Disciple? Do you have any objections?”

“None, none.”

“Senior Sister Ling’er is awesome!”

Chen Yi quietly retorted from the side, “Does it make any difference whether you’re a Sequence Disciple or not?”

After all, the Sect Master is your father.

Yu Ling’er glared at him, “Of course it’s different! This is proof of my strength!”

“Hmm… the strength of being punched away by me and hanging on a tree branch?”

“You, you, you’re not allowed to mention that again!”

Yu Ling’er immediately blushed deeply from his words.

And Elder Yunxiao continued to announce the list.

“Sequence Nine, Zhao Qing!”

“Sequence Eight, Luo Ao!”

“Sequence Seven, Lei Yi!”

“Sequence Six, Ghost Mystic!”

“Sequence Five, Senior Brother Yun Yang!”

“Sequence Four, Senior Brother Dao Taiyi!”

“Sequence Three, Wang Zhuang!”

“Sequence Two, Red Hua!”

“Sequence One… Sword Dust!!”

The Elder finished reading out the names one by one. Upon hearing them, everyone immediately started discussing animatedly.

“Aside from Yu Ling’er replacing the original Sequence Ten, there’s almost no difference from the previous batch of Sequence Disciples.”

“Yeah, where’s Junior Brother Chen Yi? Why isn’t his name there?”

“That shouldn’t be…”

Chen Yi was also a bit puzzled. What the hell?

I defeated a bunch of Sequence Disciples, and now you’re telling me I’m not on the Sequence Disciple list??

I want to report! There’s foul play!

But before he could speak, Yu Ling’er jumped out first and shouted, “I’m not convinced!”

You’re already a Sequence Disciple, what’s there to not be convinced about?

Chen Yi glanced at her.

But then he heard her say, “Why isn’t Chen Yi’s name there? He clearly defeated several Sequence Disciples. Logically speaking, he should be ranked among the top of the sequence!!”

So she was standing up for him!

Chen Yi felt a little touched inside.

And not just Yu Ling’er, Sword Dust also raised a question. He said indifferently, “Junior Brother Chen Yi defeated me. It’s only right that he should be Sequence One.”

Elder Yunxiao smiled faintly and said, “Don’t worry, as for Chen Yi, we have other arrangements. Let the Sect Master explain it to everyone personally.”

He took a step back, and Yu Hua Sect Master stepped forward, looking at the Disciples and smiling faintly, “Everyone, rest assured, my Yuhua Sect has always prioritized fairness and justice, and there will never be any favoritism or malpractice!”

“This time’s Sequence Competition ranking was selected based on the comprehensive performance of all Disciples in the assessment!”

“As for why Chen Yi isn’t here, that’s because, after discussion between myself and the Elders, we unanimously decided…”

At this point, he looked at Chen Yi and smiled, “Chen Yi, not entering the sequence, but above the sequence, can be conferred… Saint!!”
