Zhang Haoran had already heard about the news that his cousin had been badly wounded, but he was not in a hurry to seek revenge. For him, seeing Ye Chen being stepped on in public by Huang Bingwen was not a bad alternative at all. There was no need for him to do it personally. Plus, if he battled with Huang Bingwen before Ye Chen, then he would never be able to witness his enemies killing each other.
“Fine, it won’t take long to beat him, and there’s nowhere for you to escape anyways.” Huang Bingwen did not care for little things like this, he scanned the crowd, looking for Ye Chen.
In the crowd, Wu Zongming was a little bit worried: “Ye Chen, although you had already reached the Late Mortal Realm Stage 9, but the opponent had been in Early Condensing Reality Realm for a long time now. Even the martial arts he trained in are all higher ranked than yours, it would be extremely hard for you to win! Just surviving and not looking bad will be enough.” In the history of Sky Cloud Martial School, there were only a few outer disciples that had beaten inner disciples, and all of them were the once in a century martial geniuses. Although Ye Chen was not bad, it was still very difficult for him to beat Huang Bingwen, impossible really.
Ye Chen smiled a little and squeezed through the crowd. Ye Chen walked towards the battle stage and he said loudly: “No need to look for me, here I am.”
Huang Bingwen’s eyes focused on Ye Chen, he laughed: “Took you a while to get here. What? Too afraid to come out?”
Shoo!
Taking a small leap, Ye Chen landed on the huge battling stage.
“To be honest, it is a mistake not to fight with Zhang Haoran first, because you will never have a chance to.”
Huang Bingwen had never cared for an outer disciple and flicked his eyebrows, “Shameless. Soon you would know how it feels like to be stepped on.”

Editor’s Note: Couldn’t figure out a better name for linqi. It translates to spirit, reiki (the japanese form of linqi), and a bunch of other things that don’t really fit/flow well so I just chose to keep it in the pinyin form. I am currently deciding between vital energy and lingqi so comment below on which one you like better!
