Chapter 2105: I've figured it out

Zuo Fu finally agreed to Ye Zhangqing's request, but before swearing an oath, he still turned to look at Zuo Jue and said seriously.

"Father, I ask you one last time: have you decided? Even if you lose this battle, will you have no regrets?"

"No regrets."

Once Zuo Fu swears an oath, it means that from now on Zuo Jue had better not go looking for trouble with Ye Zhangqing, otherwise, even if he gets killed, he cannot intervene.

Of course, one could ask others to act, but Ye Zhangqing also has people behind him, and they are of the same level as him.

Others might not be willing to help, because it's easy to get dragged in themselves.

Seeing Zuo Jue nod solemnly, Zuo Fu wasted no words and swore a soul oath in Ye Zhangqing's presence.

As the oath fell, Ye Zhangqing nodded to show his approval.

Then the group went to the fighting platform inside the sect; as for the originally planned opening mountain ceremony, it naturally had to be postponed.

After this matter is settled, we will continue.

"Kid, are you confident?"

Before going on stage, Hong Zun, Qi Xiong, and especially Bai Hua Xianzi and the other girls were a little worried.

Because a glance at Zuo Jue shows he's no ordinary person; his combat strength is not weak.

However, Ye Zhangqing said calmly with a composed face.

"Sect Master, rest assured, have you ever seen me undertake something I wasn't sure about?"

That's true; having come all the way from Zhu Tian Wan Jie, everything Ye Zhangqing has done has been extremely steady.

He hardly ever takes risks; even when pushed to the edge, he chooses the safest path.

Seeing Ye Zhangqing so confident, Qi Xiong and the others relaxed a bit and then stopped trying to stop him.

Mounting the platform, the two stood opposite each other; facing Zuo Jue's solemn expression, Ye Zhangqing said lightly.

"Please."

He gestured for Zuo Jue to strike first; not knowing what Zuo Jue was thinking, anyway Ye Zhangqing felt no pressure.

He simply treated it as an utterly ordinary sparring match.

Hearing that, Zuo Jue gritted his teeth, unleashed his natal magic weapon, and without further words attacked Ye Zhangqing directly.

Zuo Jue also wields a blade; his blade technique is fierce and violent.

Leaving other things aside, Zuo Jue's talent is indeed among the top of the young Heavenly Pride.

He is only a hair's breadth away from a Yāoniè appearance.

But a hair's breadth is still a hair's breadth; without being a Yāoniè, he lacks the qualifications to contend with those top Yāoniè.

Even if Ye Zhangqing's cultivation is a hair's breadth below Zuo Jue's, the same applies.

Therefore, facing Zuo Jue's violent assault, Ye Zhangqing, holding a kitchen knife, lightly deflected the opponent's powerful, heavy strike.

After just the first exchange, Zuo Fu below the stage furrowed his brows tightly.

"This child.................."

As an existence of the same level as Huang Lao, Zuo Fu naturally saw from this move that Ye Zhangqing was extraordinary, possessing a Yāoniè bearing.

No wonder his progress is so fast; in this battle Zuo Jue is probably..................

It seemed the outcome was already foreshadowed, but the soul oath had been sworn, so Zuo Fu could only watch coldly, unable to do anything.

I only hope that after this battle, Zuo Jue can let go a little.

A Yāoniè bearing, in a sense, is an invincible bearing, not something easily crossed.

Zuo Fu himself is a Yāoniè, so he knows all too well the terror of a Yāoniè bearing.

Just as Zuo Fu thought, on the platform Zuo Jue had already exerted his full strength from start to finish, holding nothing back.

He attacked Ye Zhangqing with all his might.

Yet those seemingly ruthless and violent attacks were all resolved one by one in Ye Zhangqing's presence.

It seemed he was merely defending, but Zuo Jue's offense could not break through Ye Zhangqing's defense at all.

After letting Zuo Jue rage on for a while, Ye Zhangqing muttered.

"My turn."

Instantly switching from defense to offense, as a golden blade light flashed, Zuo Jue immediately fell into a defensive position.

Facing that blade light's assault, Zuo Jue could only desperately defend, with no strength left to counterattack.

The offense and defense were reversed; Zuo Jue was immediately pressed and beaten by Ye Zhangqing.

As time passed, Zuo Jue only felt increasingly strained.

Yet his obsession in his heart made him refuse to relent, and he continued to struggle desperately.

It must be said, this kid still has great perseverance; it's just that his strength is misplaced.

If he had cultivated properly earlier, becoming the foremost among Yāoniè, he could still strive for something, at least securing a place among the top prodigies.

Too bad, he's obstinate, fixated only on hatred.

The kitchen knife in his hand wrapped in golden blade light; even an ordinary-looking slash put immense pressure on Zuo Jue, forcing him to defend with all his might.

Last time Ye Zhangqing still had to suppress his cultivation to fight him as an equal, but in just over a decade, Ye Zhangqing's strength has grown to this extent.

While Zuo Jue was weary from struggling, his mood was also extremely complex.

Resentment, jealousy, helplessness, despair, and even a hint of enlightenment intertwined in his heart, making him unable for a moment to articulate what he felt.

In short, it just felt strange.

Seeing Zuo Jue also reaching his limit, Ye Zhangqing stopped holding back.

First, a strike broke through Zuo Jue's protective spirit aura; that aura could not withstand even a few blows against Ye Zhangqing's attack.

As the protective spirit aura was shattered, Zuo Jue found it even harder to persist.

The blade lights filling the sky each left him no room for carelessness; he had to respond with full effort.

The terrifying attack completely enveloped Zuo Jue.

Moreover, not only is the number of blade lights not decreasing, it is actually increasing more and more.

Finally, after Zuo Jue was completely engulfed by the sky-full blade lights, Ye Zhangqing halted his attack.

"Domain Power."

Gazing at the sky-full blade shadows on the stage, Zuo Fu said leisurely.

Domain Power is an existence above Intent Power.

It is stronger than Intent Power by an unknown factor, yet the difficulty to master it is absurdly extreme.

I never expected this youngster to have already grasped it, and it seems he's far beyond just getting started.

Domain Power creates a domain around oneself in battle, and within that domain, I am supreme.

Besides possessing the same power, it is basically impossible to break.

The ever-increasing blade lights are the most direct manifestation of the Blade Domain.

As time passes, blade lights spontaneously arise within the domain, endless in number and power, continually growing stronger.

Until the opponent can no longer resist, they are utterly submerged in this Blade Domain Power.

As far as Zuo Fu knows, in the Immortal Realm, those who have comprehended Domain Power are absolutely few, let alone the younger generation.

Anyway, the Heavenly Pride generation has none, not even the Top Prodigies; as for those few Yāoniè, Zuo Fu doesn't know if they have comprehended it.

But right now, Ye Zhangqing is absolutely the first and only youngster he has ever seen who has comprehended Domain Power.

No wonder Zuo Jue couldn't stir up even a ripple against him; from start to finish, the battle was firmly under Ye Zhangqing's control.
