Chapter 2450: Cross‑Level Challenge

The three Martial Cultivator strongmen were now also sizing up Ye Liuyun.

The Black Kill strongman on their side was a middle‑aged man, who asked Ye Liuyun, "Which faction are you from?"

Having changed his clothes and appearance inside the Secret Realm, Ye Liuyun now emerged, and the three strongmen could not tell which faction he belonged to.

Ye Liuyun said nothing, but showed his identification badge.

"Ha ha, fine, fine!"

The Black Kill strongman couldn't help but laugh.

The army side strongman complained, "Why are they all Black Kill members again!"

"It can't be that you cheated inside, can it?"

"Why are all the ones emerging Black Kill members?"

The Imperial Family elder, displeased, asked the Black Kill strongman.

"Hah, if you have the skill, cheat too!"

The Black Kill strongman was unconcerned.

He said to Ye Liuyun, "First return to Black Kill and report, and greet your instructor!"

He pointed at a Teleportation Array, indicating Ye Liuyun should go through.

"Yes!"

Ye Liuyun replied and was about to leave.

"Stop!"

The Imperial Family elder suddenly shouted to block Ye Liuyun.

"Lao Xiao Tou'er, what are you trying to do?"

The Black Kill strongman's expression darkened instantly.

"I want to test his skill, see if he used some method to cheat the Secret Realm! Your people managed to pass the Secret Realm; dare they not spar with me?"

The elder said in a spiteful tone.

"Stop leaning on your seniority! Why should our people submit to your inspection?"

The Black Kill strongman retorted immediately.

At this moment, the army strongman, enjoying the spectacle and not shying away from trouble, urged, "Could it be that you Black Kill really cheated?"

"Lao Xiao Tou'er only wants to spar with him, not kill him; are you really scared?"

"You two, cut it out! Our people just came out, how can they be compared with you?"

"How long have you two been cultivating since you emerged?"

"Besides, our agreement doesn't stipulate that we must undergo your inspection."

"If you have objections, you can go talk to the Black Kill leader."

"But to lay a hand on our members or disciples—no way!"

The Black Kill strongman firmly disagreed, believing that Ye Liuyun, just out of the Secret Realm, was not their opponent.

Ye Liuyun, using his Golden Pupil, carefully examined those two Imperial Family and army individuals; their realms had already reached the Heavenly Man Triple stage.

However, Ye Liuyun estimated that in Spatial Power they might not be much stronger than himself.

Moreover, their Divine Soul Power was not as strong as Ye Liuyun's.

He wanted to spar with a strongman and learn how powerful the Heavenly Man Triple truly is, so he decided to test them.

The Imperial Family strongman then said again, "Those who emerge from the Journey of Death usually reach the Heavenly Man Triple realm."

"But the member you previously sent out was only at the Heavenly Man Double realm."

"Now another Heavenly Man Double Martial Cultivator emerges; can we blame ourselves for doubting?"

"If we don't test, how will we know whether you're cheating?"

"I can hold back some strength when confronting him, but if you refuse our inspection, we won't accept it."

"Makes sense! Lao Xiao Tou'er said he'll reserve part of his strength; if you still refuse inspection, there must be a fake inside!"

The army side strongman also pressured Black Kill.

"Hmph, Lao Xiao Tou'er, don't think I don't know what you're thinking! You think Black Kill is too strong and want to take the chance to eliminate him, right?"

"Don't play these wishful calculations with me."

"What does it matter if you don't approve?"

"We can approve ourselves."

"If you insist on acting, come at me!"

After speaking, the Black Kill strongman told Ye Liuyun, "Go your way! They don't dare block you!"

Ye Liuyun then bowed deeply to him, calmly asking, "If I spar with him and accidentally kill him, what consequences would there be?"

"Hmm?"

Ye Liuyun's question left the three strongmen present with a startled doubt.

After the scene quieted for a moment, the Black Kill strongman suddenly laughed.

"Hahaha, good! Our Black Kill members have ambition! If you can kill those two, I'll credit you five hundred points each! Hahaha!"

Lao Xiao Tou'er's eyes filled with a sinister glare.

The army strongman wore a mocking grin, clearly not believing Ye Liuyun possessed such strength.

Ye Liuyun again bowed in thanks.

And the moment he stood up, he suddenly vanished from the spot.

Lao Xiao Tou'er of the Imperial Family immediately unleashed True Essence, pressing outward around himself.

He thought it obvious that Ye Liuyun intended to use Spatial Power to ambush him, but to his surprise his own position suddenly shifted, appearing behind the army strongman.

The strong one in that army is now on full alert.

After sensing the spatial disturbance behind him, he immediately turned his hand and struck with full force.

Ye Liuyun knows he cannot deal with two opponents at once, so he must find a way to use force against force.

The Imperial Family's Xiao Laotou'er immediately activated Spatial Power to dodge, but unexpectedly he did not shift himself away and was brutally struck by the strong one of that army.

Fortunately, that strong one quickly realized it was him and withdrew half of his power.

But then, directly facing the army's strongman, Ye Liuyun's palm also struck with full force.

"Damn!"

The army's strongman had just withdrawn his power, yet he had to meet the frontal attack.

True Essence again surged out at full force.

The Imperial Family's Xiao Laotou'er realized his Spatial Power was not as strong as Ye Liuyun's, and after being struck by the army's strongman, he panicked, only to find his position shift again, flashing to appear before the army's strongman.

And the army's strongman, having just sent out the True Essence he had withdrawn, could not retrieve it in time.

Facing the army's strongman's full-force strike, Xiao Laotou'er could only unleash True Essence at full power.

Even if it harms the opponent, he does not want to be injured himself.

"Boom!"

The two's Zhen Yuan Gong Ji collided, and although both were cast hastily, their power was not small.

Both were shaken and kept retreating.

Ye Liuyun, however, seized the chance to suddenly appear behind Xiao Laotou'er, a silent dagger pointing at his rear heart, making him run into it.

Then, with a twist of his hand, his figure vanished again.

"Ugh!"

Xiao Laotou'er froze on the spot, having not noticed Ye Liuyun standing behind him.

Meanwhile, Ye Liuyun followed with another palm, striking the army's strongman's face again.

The army's strongman, still reeling backward from the shock, sensed another attack and hurriedly launched another palm in response.

But at that moment Ye Liuyun again used Spatial Power to appear behind him, and at the instant he released True Essence, slipped a silent thrust into his rear heart.

The strong one in that army, unwilling to accept defeat, risked death and struck backward with a palm.

Yet his position suddenly shifted, landing behind Xiao Laotou'er, and that palm solidly struck Xiao Laotou'er.
