Supreme Lord of Towers

”Ye Lin’Er, I know you’re watching the duel nearby. Now that Duanmu Jie has been killed by me, it’s your turn soon.” From above the Life and Death Battle Platform, Ye Chen scanned the crowd, his tone incomparably cold.

The reason he tangled with Duanmu Jie was all because of Ye Lin’Er.

It could be said that Ye Lin’Er is the true instigator behind it all.

Whenever he thought about the Phoenix Race bloodline within him, cruelly taken away by Ye Lin’Er, and even the treasures left by his parents that all fell into her hands, a raging fire burned within Ye Chen, making him wish he could tear Ye Lin’Er apart at that very moment.

Unfortunately, Ye Lin’Er is now a Seed Student at Profound Sword Peak, greatly valued by Duanmu Ying.

If Ye Chen cannot get past Duanmu Ying, he simply can’t do anything to Ye Lin’Er.

Therefore, what he could do was to strive to improve his strength until he could crush Duanmu Ying.

By then, he would be able to seek revenge against Ye Lin’Er.

”Hmph! Ye Chen, you think you, a worthless piece of trash, can kill me? You’re really overestimating yourself! To tell you the truth, my cultivation has already stepped into the Fifth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm. Crushing you is as simple as snapping a finger.” At this moment, a graceful figure slowly emerged from one of the palaces at the front of the Life and Death Battle Platform, speaking coldly to Ye Chen.

That figure was none other than Ye Lin’Er.

At this time, her snow-white chin slightly tilted upward, her mouth curled into a mocking smile, and her gaze at Ye Chen was like looking at an ant that could be crushed at will.

”What? Senior Sister Lin’Er’s cultivation has already reached the Fifth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm? Am I dreaming?”

”A miracle, this is simply a miracle. Even Senior Brother Chu Feng’s cultivation speed back then wasn’t this fast.” The onlooking students gasped in disbelief, their eyes full of incredulity.

You should know that when Ye Lin’Er just joined Celestial Flame Academy, her cultivation was only at the True Qi Realm Tenth Layer.

But in just a little over two months, her cultivation broke through to the Fifth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm.

Such a cultivation speed is truly astonishing.

”Lin’Er, is this true?” Even Duanmu Ying’s body trembled fiercely, and her eyes were fixed on Ye Lin’Er, her expression extremely excited.

”Yes, I only recently broke through, so I haven’t had a chance to inform the Peak Master.” Ye Lin’Er smiled slightly, her brow full of pride.

Buzz!

The next moment, an immensely fierce Gang Qi surged out from within Ye Lin’Er, enveloping an area of fifteen zhang around her.

The power contained within this Gang Qi alone reached the Power of Seven Hundred Fifty Tigers, far more terrifying than Duanmu Jie.

”It’s really the Fifth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm; how is this possible?” In the splendidly decorated hall, Ouyang Zhong’s pupils suddenly constricted, his face turning even more pale than a corpse.

He knew that Ye Lin’Er had awakened a Profound Level Second Grade bloodline, and her cultivation speed was extremely fast.

But he did not expect it to be this quick.

In the entire history of Celestial Flame Academy, you wouldn’t find anyone with such heaven-defying cultivation speed.

If Ye Lin’Er was just an ordinary Seed Student, Ouyang Zhong wouldn’t be so anxious.

But she happens to be Ye Chen’s arch-enemy.

Even if Ye Chen can currently unleash about the Power of One Thousand Tigers with his physical power, and has even practiced the Storm Swordsmanship, a Yellow Level Top Grade Martial Arts, to the Transformation Realm, defeating Ye Lin’Er is still a nearly impossible task.

After all, the bloodline awakened by Ye Lin’Er is a Profound Level Second Grade bloodline, its power greatly surpassing that of Duanmu Jie’s Golden Dragon Elephant Bloodline.

Considering Ye Chen’s current strength, he absolutely cannot contend with her.

”Haha, truly a blessing for our Profound Sword Peak! Lin’Er, as long as you continue to cultivate, becoming an Immortal Seed is just around the corner.” Duanmu Ying’s eyes shot with dazzling brilliance and her expression was extremely excited.

”Congratulations to Junior Sister Duanmu for recruiting such a promising student. Given time, Ye Lin’Er’s achievements should not fall short of Chu Feng’s.” The Celestial Flame Peak Master couldn’t help but praise out loud.

In fact, he was also deeply amazed at Ye Lin’Er’s cultivation speed, even suspecting that she had consumed some rare Heavenly and Earthly Treasures or Spiritual Elixirs to improve so quickly.

To know that the top prodigy of their Celestial Flame Peak, Chu Feng, who also awakened a Profound Level Second Grade bloodline like Ye Lin’Er, couldn’t even match half of Ye Lin’Er’s cultivation speed.

If Ye Lin’Er continues to improve at this pace, even Chu Feng’s spot as the top prodigy might have to be given to her.

”Senior Brother, you’re too kind. There’s still a big gap between Lin’Er and Nephew Chu Feng! After all, Nephew Chu Feng’s cultivation has already stepped into the Celestial Spirit Realm, and he holds a position on the Hidden Dragon List. Lin’Er still has a long way to go to catch up with him.” Duanmu Ying said with a smile.

”Peak Master, I have one more thing to report. My bloodline has recently transformed into an Earth Level bloodline, so please refrain from casually comparing me to Chu Feng.” Ye Lin’Er raised her head high, her expression incomparably arrogant.

As if comparing Celestial Flame Academy’s top prodigy Chu Feng to her was an insult.

”What? Your bloodline has transformed again, and it’s now an Earth Level bloodline? This is unprecedented in our Celestial Flame Academy.” Duanmu Ying’s eyes widened in disbelief, unable to trust her ears.

She had already known that Ye Lin’Er’s bloodline could undergo transformation.

Before joining the Celestial Flame Academy, Ye Lin’Er’s bloodline was only at the Profound Level Seventh Grade, which definitely did not qualify her to be designated as a seed student of the Celestial Flame Academy.

However, after undergoing a transformation, Ye Lin’Er’s bloodline reached the Profound Level Second Grade and was immediately recruited by Duanmu Ying into the Profound Sword Peak.

And now, in just over two months, Ye Lin’Er’s bloodline has transformed yet again, becoming an Earth Level Bloodline.

This is truly beyond comprehension.

”Earth Level Bloodline? Could it be that our Celestial Flame Academy is really about to have a change in fortune?” At this moment, the Celestial Flame Peak Master stood frozen in place, his gaze fixated on Ye Lin’Er as if he were observing an extraordinary uncut jade.

The Celestial Flame Academy has been established for about five hundred years now.

Yet, it has never produced a prodigy with an Earth Level Bloodline.

If Ye Lin’Er is not lying, then she will become the student with the most formidable bloodline in the history of the Celestial Flame Academy.

Even Chu Feng pales in comparison to her.

No wonder she is so reluctant to be compared to Chu Feng.

Because, she indeed has the credentials.

”How can this be? If Ye Lin’Er has truly awakened an Earth Level Bloodline, then Ye Chen will probably face grave dangers in the future.” Ouyang Zhong’s face suddenly changed dramatically, his eyes filled with deep worry.

Earth Level Bloodlines are rare even in the Azure Sky Immortal Sect and even have the potential to become true disciples of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect.

A person like this, their future achievements are limitless; even a single thought could obliterate the entire Celestial Flame Academy.

And Ye Chen!

Though his martial arts talent is incredibly heaven-defying, he cannot awaken his bloodline; the chance of becoming an immortal in the future is undoubtedly extremely slim.

So what if he can dominate in the Celestial Flame Dynasty’s mortal realm?

Once Ye Lin’Er becomes a true disciple of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, she could render Ye Chen dead without a place to be buried in an instant.

”Oh heavens! Senior Sister Lin’Er has actually awakened an Earth Level Bloodline. Am I dreaming?”

”Given enough time, even Senior Brother Chu Feng may not be her match. After all, the gap between a Profound Level Bloodline and an Earth Level Bloodline is incredibly vast.” The surrounding students all gasped, looking at Ye Lin’Er with deep respect, as if observing a true immortal.

They have never seen an Earth Level Bloodline.

However, according to various ancient texts, the power of an Earth Level Bloodline is far more terrifying than that of a Profound Level Bloodline.

Even a Profound Level First Grade bloodline is nothing compared to an Earth Level Bloodline, let alone a Profound Level Second Grade bloodline.

Thus, it seems that completely surpassing Chu Feng is only a matter of time for Ye Lin’Er.

”Ha! Ye Chen, the reason I could be where I am today is thanks to your useless Phoenix Race bloodline! Moreover, my rapid rise in cultivation is all thanks to the spiritual elixirs your father left behind. Without them, breaking through to the Fifth Layer of the Gang Qi Realm would have taken more time.” Ye Lin’Er’s gaze landed on Ye Chen, her lips curling into a mocking smile, deliberately transmitting this to him.

The fast pace of her cultivation was primarily due to consuming those spiritual elixirs left by Ye Chen’s father.

These spiritual elixirs, even in the Divine Spirit Family, are considered very precious and significantly enhance cultivation.

Even those who haven’t awakened a bloodline, consuming them can rapidly enhance their cultivation, let alone Ye Lin’Er.

Originally, all these spiritual elixirs were prepared by Ye Chen’s father for him.

Yet, unexpectedly, they ended up in Ye Lin’Er’s hands.

To Ye Chen, this is nothing short of the greatest irony.

”Hmph! Ye Lin’Er, don’t celebrate too early. One day, I will reclaim everything that belongs to me!” Ye Chen’s teeth clamped tightly, making an ever-piercing scream, as he shouted angrily at Ye Lin’Er.

If he could, he would have loved to dash over right now to kill Ye Lin’Er and reclaim the treasures his parents left for him.

However, after merging with his Phoenix Race bloodline, Ye Lin’Er’s power has undergone a dramatic transformation.

Not even Ye Chen has any confidence to defeat her.

Especially with Duanmu Ying also protecting Ye Lin’Er here, if Ye Chen dares to act rashly, it is definitely him who will suffer.

So, for now, he still needs to endure.

”Strength, I must quickly enhance my strength. If Ye Lin’Er joins the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, killing her will only be harder.” Ye Chen’s fists clenched tightly, within his heart longing desperately for power.

Now, Ye Lin’Er already possesses an Earth Level Bloodline, and becoming a disciple of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect is a foregone conclusion.

Therefore, Ye Chen must resolve her completely before Ye Lin’Er is recruited into the Azure Sky Immortal Sect; otherwise, who knows how long he will have to wait!
