Chapter 2911: Intimidating the Inner Gate

Everyone saw his humble speech and also knew Tang Xinyao's troublemaking nature, so their impression of him was good.

The disciple opposite him also calmed down a bit. Moreover, he saw that Ye Liuyun was only at the Sevenfold Sovereign realm, three layers lower than him, indeed a very low realm.

So he spoke: "I'm Tang Yong. Since you're so humble, I won't hurt you today; feel free to make your move!"

Ye Liuyun heard this and could only say, "Then thank you, Senior Brother Tang Yong!"

In fact, he wanted Tang Yong to give his all, so he could better test himself. But he also knew that once they fought, the disciple would certainly use full strength, allowing him to try to win.

After speaking, Ye Liuyun stopped the chatter and directly struck a palm with Heaven and Earth Power toward Tang Yong.

Tang Yong originally thought he was spurred on by Tang Xinyao and acted impulsively; after all, Ye Liuyun was only at the Sevenfold Sovereign realm, so even if strong, he shouldn't be a match. So he didn't pay much attention, assuming a casual handling would end it.

But when he felt Ye Liuyun's Heaven and Earth Power, his complexion changed instantly.

"Did Tang Xinyao not joke this time? Is this kid really that strong?"

Not only Tang Yong, but even the other disciples felt how strong the Heaven and Earth Power in Ye Liuyun's palm was.

Ye Liuyun didn't rush to strike, but slowly lowered his palm, giving Tang Yong time to react. Tang Yong, considering his low realm, said he wouldn't hurt him, which also prevented Ye Liuyun from being too harsh.

Before lowering his palm, he studied how to continuously blend Heaven and Earth Power, making his own power rotate, forming momentum, so the strength of that palm kept increasing.

Tang Qianyu carefully felt the force of Ye Liuyun's palm, her expression very serious, because she discovered his Heaven and Earth Power was actually a bit stronger than hers.

Tang Qianyu had also entered the Heavenly Earth Secret Realm, but in the last few steps she couldn't ascend, so she secretly used a bit of True Essence to reach the end.

In ordinary battles she didn't use much Heaven and Earth Power; without True Essence it was less convenient, so she neglected cultivation and ended up a bit weaker than Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun has recently been constantly using this power,

and he's continuously refining and strengthening it, so his Heaven and Earth Power keeps rising.

Tang Xinyao smiled at Ye Liuyun, a cunning sparkle flashing in her eyes.

Tang Yong's forehead was already beading with sweat. Ye Liuyun's palm grew stronger, and he felt his own strength might not be enough to block the strike.

But he refused to concede outright, immediately mobilizing all his True Essence, merging it with Heaven and Earth Power, and threw a full‑strength punch to meet Ye Liuyun's palm.

Ye Liuyun saw him act, fixed his gaze on his True Essence and Heaven and Earth Power, realized he couldn't block his palm, and immediately withdrew some Heaven and Earth Power.

Boom!

Their attacks collided, Tang Yong stepped back two paces unharmed, but his expression turned unusually grim.

He himself sensed that Ye Liuyun was finally releasing his force; otherwise that palm, even if it didn't kill him, would have left him seriously wounded.

He bowed to Ye Liuyun in thanks, immediately leapt off the stage and returned to cultivate. Having been defeated by a Sevenfold Sovereign disciple and forced to yield, he had no face to stay here.

The others were also astonished by Ye Liuyun's strength. Some disciples strong in Heaven and Earth Power also felt his final release, so many strong disciples immediately became interested and stepped onto the stage to challenge him.

But they all forgot that Ye Liuyun only used Heaven and Earth Power, without employing Mysterious Origin. The disciples overlooked this, assuming it was Ye Liuyun's full strength.

Ye Liuyun fought two more rounds. These disciples gave their all, matching Heaven and Earth Power plus True Essence against Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun also summoned all his Heaven and Earth Power, and under the pressure of those disciples continuously amplified it, ultimately defeating the two.

Although he used Heaven and Earth Power and seemed very relaxed in battle, the final fight was extremely hard for him. He had already pushed his Heaven and Earth Power to the limit; any more he could not summon at once.

After he beat those two disciples, no one stepped onto the stage for a while. Those two were among the stronger ones; any others who tried would only be looking for a beating.

Thus everyone's gaze focused on Tang Qianyu

on her. At present, among those present, only Tang Qianyu could defeat Ye Liuyun.

Tang Xinyao, seeing the crowd's gaze, immediately said, "Sister Qianyu, step forward; now everyone's hopes rest on you. If you don't act, we old inner‑gate disciples will be outdone by a newcomer!"

Tang Qianyu hadn't intended to act, but after Tang Xinyao's words, the others echoed, putting her in a dilemma.

The Tang family's inner gate has only five Heavenly Pride‑level disciples, who normally don't spar with others. Letting him spar with a newly entered inner disciple, whose realm is still Sevenfold Sovereign, seems overly bullying.

Given her status and strength, she could never spar with a disciple of such a low realm.

She was hesitating when Ye Liuyun suddenly said, "Senior Sister Qianyu, since everyone agrees, why not use this chance to teach me a couple of moves? I've long heard you're an inner‑gate Heavenly Pride disciple and wish to learn from you."

Ye Liuyun couldn't resist wanting to spar with her, to see the Tang family's Heavenly Pride disciple's strength. Otherwise the old disciples are already familiar, and no one would challenge Tang Qianyu, leaving him no chance to gauge their power.

Having understood these Heavenly Pride disciples' strength, he would know what to expect when he engaged.

Tang Qianyu didn't expect Ye Liuyun to challenge her. She understood his desire to learn from a master, and his humble words didn't offend her.

But she shook her head: "You're not my opponent; after all, your realm is too low!" She didn't want to be blamed for bullying a disciple.

Tang Xinyao replied, "Sister Qianyu, even though his realm is low, his strength is great! Among these people, only you can match him.

And since he dared to ask you for instruction, it shows he has confidence. As a senior sister, if you refuse, won't that chill people's hearts? Others would think our inner‑gate Heavenly Pride disciples are so proud they won't mentor juniors!"

"Well… then okay!" Tang Qianyu, after hearing that, could only agree.

But after stepping onto the stage, she reminded Ye Liuyun: "With the power you just showed, you still aren't my match. You must use your full strength!"
