Enough talk, let’s fight!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yichen said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan kept his eyes on Mo Yichen’s sword rather than Mo Yichen himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>According to the System’s analysis, Mo Yichen’s entire strength lay in that sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the moment, the sword didn’t emit the slightest hint of Qi, making it look like an ordinary weapon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made it difficult for Bai Zihan to determine to what extent Mo Yichen had strengthened the sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Earth-Grade? To Heaven-Grade?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it were at the Heaven-Grade level, it might give Bai Zihan some trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Mo Yichen clearly looking down on Bai Zihan, he wasn’t planning to hold back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that he was using his Divine Sword, along with his Golden Core cultivation, proved this—quite different from typical villains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd went silent, their attention entirely focused on Bai Zihan and Mo Yichen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yichen tightened his grip on the sword, the air around him growing tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mei Clan members watched with bated breath, some already murmuring words of encouragement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yichen lunged forward, his sword blazing with a golden light filled with powerful Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He moved with precision and speed, his sword slicing through the air, aiming straight for Bai Zihan’s torso.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Bai Zihan didn’t move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Calmly, he took his time and drew his own sword—an Earth-Grade sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way! An Earth-Grade Artifact?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can Bai Zihan use an Earth-Grade Artifact against Mo Yichen? Isn’t that an unfair advantage?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mei Clan members were stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To them, an Earth-Grade Artifact was so rare and precious that they could only dream of owning one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some even thought Bai Zihan was taking advantage of his background, fighting unfairly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, when they first saw a Core Formation cultivator going up against a Golden Core expert, they didn’t think it was unfair at all—but now that Mo Yichen was at disadvantage, suddenly it’s unfair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hypocrites, just like everyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>!!!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yichen also felt the power and pressure radiating from Bai Zihan’s weapon, but he showed no signs of stopping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sword descended like a golden comet, its radiant light fierce and overwhelming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in that instant—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A crisp, metallic ring echoed through the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan’s Earth-Grade sword met Mo Yichen’s strike, effortlessly halting it in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two blades ground against each other, sparks flying as spiritual energy clashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yichen’s confident smile wavered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had expected to slice through Bai Zihan’s defense, to see panic in his eyes. Instead, he was met with a calm, almost bored expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with an Earth-Grade Sword, Mo Yichen believed that the wielder’s strength mattered most.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like a baby with a knife—dangerous, but not necessarily powerful. Easily subdued by an adult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Mo Yichen thought he was that adult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that all you’ve got?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(Looks like the sword has been upgraded between Earth-Grade and Profound-Grade!)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was similar to Top Profound-Grade Sword which meant that Mo Yichen wasn’t too much of opponent for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t get cocky!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yichen roared, his Qi flaring as he channeled even more power into his strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A brilliant golden aura exploded around him, the pressure of his Golden Core Stage cultivation surging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The marble floor beneath his feet cracked, wind howled, and the weaker disciples in the hall stumbled back, their faces pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s Mo Yichen’s true strength!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No way! The pressure even more than when our elders unleash their Qi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The younger disciples staggered back, some even dropping to one knee, unable to withstand the pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mei Clan elders looked thrilled, their eyes filled with hope once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Bai Zihan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stood as steady as a mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Earth-Grade sword continued to hold against Mo Yichen’s empowered strike, the blade glowing with a silver sheen as Bai Zihan’s own spiritual energy surged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A powerful Qi burst from Bai Zihan’s body—radiant, sharp, and overwhelming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Golden Core Stage!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His cultivation was no longer hidden, not that he was keeping it a secret anyways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The oppressive pressure of his Golden Core Stage swept through the hall like a tidal wave, crashing against Mo Yichen’s aura and even somewhat overwhelming it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What...?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mo Yichen’s confident expression twisted in shock. His body trembled under the crushing force of Bai Zihan’s powerful Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mei Clan members, who had just been cheering, fell silent. Their faces turned pale, some even stepping back instinctively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Golden Core... He’s at Golden Core Stage too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But how? Bai Zihan was supposed to be a Core Formation Stage waste!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So it was all a lie? Did the Bai Clan deceive the entire world?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How can this be possible? He’s at the late stage of the Golden Core Realm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Golden Core Stage and an Earth-Grade Weapon—can Mo Yichen win against that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Mei Rulan’s face turned pale as she looked at Bai Zihan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She always thought it was strange that someone as cunning as Bai Zihan would fall for Mo Yichen’s trap and accept his challenge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now it all began to make sense—he accepted because he was never going to lose in the first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Bai Clan’s elders and disciples were equally shocked, their initial panic transforming into astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mei Clan might think of Bai Zihan’s \"waste\" reputation as a deceptive scheme of Bai Clan. But the Bai Clan knew better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan wasn’t just called a waste because of his trashy cultivation talent but also because of his refusal to work hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Giving him resources was like pouring fuel into a broken engine—no matter how much they gave, there was no progress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiding his power?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Impossible! With Bai Zihan’s personality, they couldn’t imagine him keeping up an act since birth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So how did he reach the Golden Core Stage?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grand Elder Bai Ren’s eyes glinted with pride and excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So he already reached the Golden Core Stage. I thought he was hiding something, but I never expected this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grand Elder Bai Ren’s evaluation of Bai Zihan as the future Clan Leader soared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even without cultivation talent, he had always been satisfied with Bai Zihan’s cunning and leadership qualities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, with such astonishing cultivation talent as well, which could only be called perfect for the Bai Clan Leader—both brains and brawn—there was nothing left to complain about.\u003C\u002Fp>",1045,"2026-05-28T18:17:14.491Z","2026-06-01T04:28:34.960Z",1,"novelbin.me","fe5a55a954a352d357a6c78faab4dd4e236a6076bb9cc17abab2ca49eee62cf3","turns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-chapter-102","turns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-chapter-400",580,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fturns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-cover.jpg"]
