Chapter 500: Gathering of Heroes

Yunmeng and the others helped the Martial Cultivator down and gave him a healing pill.

After that, they no longer dared to challenge Ye Liuyun. Two attacks, and Ye Liuyun didn't even move a muscle before neutralizing them; if they provoke Ye Liuyun again, they're clearly courting death!

The other teams just watched the spectacle, while also whispering cautiously.

"That cultivating youngster is amazing! Is he aiming for the championship?"

"Hmph, no matter how strong, he's probably not Mo Tianheng's match. Mo Tianheng is the truly powerful one!"

"Mo Tianheng? Could he also join the Cangyun Continent martial tournament?" Ye Liuyun heard this and his heart stirred instantly.

Although he was cultivating, his Divine Sense kept monitoring every comment and movement on the platform.

The two attacks just now happened to be his strong points, so he was too lazy to get up. Yet he heard every word those people said clearly in his ears.

He has always thought Mo Tianheng mysterious and hopes to see his demeanor again. Since their parting in the Demon Race Secret Realm, Ye Liuyun hasn't properly thanked Mo Tianheng for his gift.

Yunmeng now knows that Ye Liuyun is definitely the strongest here. So she dares not provoke him again; she shifts her focus to Lu Wentong and Gao Yuan, sending people in succession to challenge them.

After Lu Wentong was defeated by Ye Liuyun last time, his sword intent greatly improved, reaching the pinnacle of the Perfect Stage, and a single strike defeats his opponent.

Yunmeng's side no longer sent anyone to challenge him, as it was enough to know he was a sword cultivator and his sword intent level. Next was Gao Yuan. Gao Yuan is the most belligerent; he could hardly wait. As soon as someone challenged him, he leapt out and started blasting the opponent.

Unfortunately his realm was slightly lower than his opponent's, so he ultimately couldn't defeat him. Yunmeng's group finally regained a bit of face. Yet Yunmeng felt a hidden dread; the Golden Peng Dynasty's team this time was far stronger than before.

Especially Ye Liuyun, utterly unfathomable. At least for her, facing Ye Liuyun leaves no chance of victory.

Having probed enough, Yunmeng led her team back to recuperate. Gao Yuan also began treating his wounds on the spot.

The battles here paused for a while, but as more teams arrived, fights among the youths grew increasingly frequent.

The Elders of each team silently watched in tacit understanding.

These youngsters, full of vigor, naturally have some friction. If they lose, the Elder must intervene, and they'd be despised by everyone.

Soon the entire platform saw nonstop battles, one after another. Sometimes multiple fights erupted simultaneously. Spectators who love excitement were overwhelmed.

Ye Liuyun's Divine Sense also monitored each newly arrived team. Some were strong, some weak, but undoubtedly each was the strongest young generation of its Sect.

This grand platform could be called a gathering of elites.

Soon, Ye Liuyun saw the Lingxi Palace team; Liang Xue was indeed among them, and her realm had already risen to Tian Gang Third Level.

Moreover, Liang Xue's aura seemed even more transcendent. Upon her arrival, she instantly attracted many male disciples' attention.

Ye Liuyun immediately communicated with Liang Xue via Divine Sense. With many people around, gathering to reminisce was inconvenient, so they used Divine Sense instead.

Soon the Heavenly Sound Hall's team arrived. Su Miaoyin was also in the team, though her realm was only Tian Gang Second Level.

Ye Liuyun multitasked, greeting Su Miaoyin as well, though he hadn't introduced her to Liang Xue yet. He told her not to worry; even if he leaves Cangyun Continent, he'll take her along before departing.

Su Miaoyin's biggest worry was exactly that. Seeing Ye Liuyun volunteer, she was moved to tears.

In the Heavenly Sound Hall, the female Elder and disciples were all women. When Su Miaoyin faltered, a close female disciple immediately asked the reason. Su Miaoyin tossed out a random excuse and brushed it off. *Clack—*

Then she smiled contentedly. In her view, this meant Ye Liuyun had acknowledged her status, declaring he would not abandon her.

This cry and smile left her sister disciples bewildered.

At that moment, a unicorn‑winged horse let out a long whinny, pulling a carriage that landed on the platform. From the carriage stepped out many young people, all splendidly attired, clearly not ordinary disciples.

The Team Leader at the front disembarked and, without settling the group, walked straight toward Liang Xue.

"Miss Liang, how have you been lately?" the man greeted Liang Xue directly.

Liang Xue's Divine Sense was discussing her cultivation progress with Ye Liuyun. Upon the man's greeting, she politely replied, "Young Master Nie!" and then resumed talking with Ye Liuyun, showing a clear shift in tone.

The Nie youngster, not feeling his face was bruised, hurriedly chatted with Liang Xue. "Not long ago I ran into Mo Tianheng and even fought him, losing by half a move! Now my realm has risen, and if I meet him again, I'll definitely have the strength for a bout."

His voice was loud, drawing many eyes, especially when he mentioned Mo Tianheng.

"Seems Mo Tianheng is quite a celebrity; I wonder how strong he is now!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself.

He didn't mind that others pursued Liang Xue. Given her looks, figure, and cultivation, being courted was normal. As long as Liang Xue's heart belonged to him, he had no reason for jealousy.

"Oh, then congratulations, Young Master Nie!" Liang Xue politely replied. She felt a bit displeased that the Nie man interrupted her conversation with Ye Liuyun.

The man was Nie Weihe, the strongest disciple of Canglong Hall. After losing to Mo Tianheng by chance, he took Mo Tianheng as his pursuit target.

Recently he felt his realm had risen, so he deliberately sought Mo Tianheng for another duel, only to be defeated in a single move, lacking any resistance.

Now his realm is Tian Gang Fifth Level, and he again believes he can fight Mo Tianheng.

He met Liang Xue during an inter‑Sect exchange duel. At that time Liang Xue was only at Golden Core Ninth Level, so there was no chance for a match.

But when he saw Liang Xue's looks, he was instantly smitten. Though he expressed his intention to pursue her and was firmly rejected, he remained unyielding, believing his status and strength would eventually win the beauty's heart.

"Huh, Miss Liang, are you transmitting voice with someone? Who are you talking to?" Nie Weihe finally noticed Liang Xue's absent‑mindedness and couldn't help asking.
