Chapter 1332: Distributing Resources
After the clan chief learned of this, he also expressed agreement, but he still advised: "You'd better test him again, in case it's a coincidence."
"Hmm, good! I'll find a few more people to test him!" A Mu also wanted to see just how strong Ye Liuyun really was.
When the time comes, I'll go check it out too!
There aren't many talented people in the tribe. So the clan chief is also very interested in Ye Liuyun.
If he really is talent, they'll definitely give him preferential treatment in resources.
"I never realized you were this strong!" A Xing kept praising Ye Liuyun's ability all the way back.
"I don't know how it happened; I just felt I should strike that way. Maybe it's from my previous memories!"
Ye Liuyun suddenly thought that his amnesia excuse was perfect—anything could be explained away!
"You'd better regain more of your memories; then you'll be even stronger!" A Xing laughed.
"I'd like that too! But what I say doesn't count!" Ye Liuyun laughed.
Ye Tiandao followed behind, snickering.
A Xing had grown accustomed to Ye Tiandao's frequent goofy smiles.
Ye Tiandao usually doesn't speak much, and when he does he sounds stiff. She really thought he was a bit simple-minded.
Not long after they returned, A Xing was still asking Ye Liuyun about the thrusts of his spear technique.
"It's actually just a spear technique. The spear is just a bit longer and thinner than a regular spear, but the usage is the same…" Ye Liuyun was explaining to A Xing.
A tribesman ran over and greeted Ye Liuyun: "Ayun, the clan chief wants you to go to the training field!"
"What's up?" A Xing asked on Ye Liuyun's behalf.
"Looks like they want to arrange a challenge!" The tribesman wasn't sure of the details either.
Ye Liuyun's heart sank. "Could it be that I've been exposed and aroused their suspicion?"
But no matter what, the chief ordered him to go, so he had to go and just play it by ear.
A Xing and Ye Tiandao also went along.
When they arrived at the training field, they discovered that the clan chief was there too.
Inside the field, four young sturdy men stood, their cultivation ranging from Body Refining Third Level to Body Refining Eighth Level.
As soon as Ye Liuyun and his group arrived, Clan Chief A Mu smiled and said to Ye Liuyun: "Ayun, even the clan chief sees great potential in you!"
"If you can defeat these four on the field, you'll receive plenty of cultivation resources from now on!"
A Mu's words made many tribespeople envious, emitting sounds of "tsk tsk" admiration.
A Xing also excitedly grabbed Ye Liuyun's arm, urging him to get onto the field quickly.
Ye Liuyun had unspeakable bitterness.
But in a tribe that venerates martial prowess, if he shrank back in battle he'd be utterly ruined. In the eyes of these tribespeople, they'd rather be knocked down than retreat from a fight.
So Ye Liuyun again took up his spear and stood in the middle of the field.
Just like last time, he removed the spear tip again.
This action of his made the four opponents instinctively feel a chill at their throats.
In fact, Ye Liuyun could make those four collapse and unable to rise just with his aura alone.
But now he can't use anything; he must rely solely on combat skill to face a Martial Cultivator at Body Refining Eighth Level.
However, powers like Mysterious Origin and aura cannot be used, but he can still draw a little Heaven and Earth Power. It's like some people are born with divine strength that isn't obvious.
As Ye Liuyun tossed the spear tip aside, the four opponents also picked up their weapons and charged at him.
This time Ye Liuyun didn't stand still; he gripped the spear with one hand, pointed it forward, and readied himself for battle.
He first aimed at the fastest tribesman, thrusting like a Xu Guang spear at his eyes; that man hastily dodged to the side, then Ye Liuyun backhanded and deflected a tribesman's incoming slash with his spear.
Then he turned, moved in front of an axe-wielding tribesman, and thrust the other side of the spear from under the armpit into his chest.
Next, against a spear-wielding tribesman, Ye Liuyun pressed down his spear and immediately swept upward to strike the man's hands gripping the spear.
The whole sequence flowed smoothly in one breath, like drifting clouds and flowing water, leaving some onlookers dazzled.
Then Ye Liuyun began to break them down one by one; in a short while all four were "speared to death" by his spear and fell defeated.
"Good!" Clan Chief A Mu exclaimed excitedly.
Even the clan chief joined in, clapping continuously.
The tribespeople's gazes at Ye Liuyun were also filled with admiration.
If the previous fight only showed a few moves that left them unsatisfied, this time it was a full performance!
On the spot, the clan chief took out some spirit stones and other cultivation resources, plus a cultivation manual, and rewarded Ye Liuyun with them, making everyone jealous.
Ye Liuyun estimated that if these people knew how many spirit stones he had, they'd be scared to death.
What the clan chief gave him was a medium-grade spirit stone and some low-grade spirit stones—this little amount was truly "rare" in Ye Liuyun's storage ring.
After the lively scene, everyone gradually dispersed.
After returning, Ye Liuyun gave that medium-grade spirit stone to A Xing.
"This is your cultivation resource—what are you giving it to me for?" A Xing asked, puzzled.
"I'm your servant; having received a reward, I naturally ought to give you the best!" Ye Liuyun joked.
A Xing also laughed, but she still refused Ye Liuyun's kindness.
Ye Liuyun had no choice but to take out another medium-grade spirit stone from his storage ring to show her, and then gave her two more.
"Look, I still have plenty—enough to cultivate for a while. Keep it for yourself and raise your realm quickly!"
A Xing stuck out her tongue: "Your identity before the amnesia definitely wasn't simple!"
Afterward, she still blushed as she put those medium-grade spirit stones away.
After all, this was Ye Liuyun's thoughtfulness, so she was wholly delighted. In her heart, Ye Liuyun liked her very much; otherwise he wouldn't have given her a medium-grade spirit stone.
Even her father, the clan chief, couldn't do this.
Ye Liuyun merely thought she felt a bit embarrassed for accepting the spirit stone, and didn't pay it any mind.
Afterwards, he helped A Xing finish the work at hand, then took Ye Tiandao and went back to cultivate.
"Ah, I still have to gradually increase my strength! This isn't just creating trouble for myself!" Ye Liuyun felt somewhat helpless; coming here also didn't escape the fate of having to fight people.
Moreover, he also had to pretend to be weak, making things even more awkward!
He flipped through the cultivation technique the clan chief gave him, then tossed it aside.
This technique is really too ordinary, and he currently cannot possibly cultivate it.
Then he calculated again; the resources the clan chief gave him could only allow him to cultivate to the first or second level of body refinement.
