Chapter 1829: Is this going against the will of heaven?

The crowd watching from below the stage also burst into an uproar when they saw this scene.

Using movement techniques to transform one person into nine, and completely unable to distinguish which was real and which was fake, made all the students present incredibly excited.

“Brothers, which of these nine people is the true body and which is the illusion?”

“How would I know? I can’t tell at all; they’re all exactly like the main body…”

“Amazing, truly amazing! If it were me, I’d definitely surrender on the spot…”

Everyone present sighed in admiration, and Lu Xueman’s expression also changed drastically.

She was all too familiar with the power of this Nine Shadows Clone technique.

During the last Heaven Ranking Battle, she and Fan Xiaofeng fought for a thousand moves without a clear victor, and she ultimately lost due to his use of this very technique.

She hadn’t expected this fellow to use it again today, enraged by his humiliation.

Under everyone’s gaze, the nine Fan Xiaofengs now surrounded Ye Erlang in the center, radiating a powerful Aura.

“Kid, my Nine Shadows Clone technique is unbreakable; it’s like having nine of me fighting you at once.

It’s an honor for you to be defeated by this move of mine…”

Fan Xiaofeng wasn’t in a hurry to act, perhaps feeling certain of his victory, or perhaps having suppressed his frustration for too long and wanting to vent.

“Noisy!”

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Erlang punched out, directly smashing a figure at a 45-degree angle to the upper left, completely ignoring the other eight.

“What is this guy doing? Is he going to gamble on his luck?”

“How could he possibly guess correctly? If he guesses wrong, it’s all over…”

Everyone was extremely surprised by Ye Erlang’s reaction, not understanding why he was so sure about the one in the front left, thinking he was entirely gambling on luck.

Just then, with a muffled thud, a figure flew out—it was Fan Xiaofeng, who had been knocked away.

At the same time, the other eight figures all vanished, clearly all illusions.

This shocked everyone.

They couldn’t tell which was real and which was fake, yet Ye Erlang hit the mark with one move.

The most shocked was Lu Xueman.

She knew very well how powerful the Nine Shadows Clone technique was.

It was precisely because she couldn’t determine which was the true body that she narrowly lost that time.

Although she analyzed it for a long time afterward, she couldn’t find a way to break it.

Later, when she advanced to the Void Refinement Stage, she could only rely on her powerful cultivation to attack simultaneously to break this move.

But Ye Bufan was clearly not like that; he truly (This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) found the true body.

He easily accomplished what she couldn’t.

The most miserable was Fan Xiaofeng.

Ye Erlang’s punch showed no mercy, directly hitting him in the chest.

He began spitting blood profusely while still in mid-air, and by the time he landed, his internal organs were burning hot, severely injured, and his Aura was weak.

In comparison, his spirit and confidence took a heavier blow.

He looked at Ye Erlang with a terrified expression, “How did you find out?”

Ye Erlang said lightly, “I guessed!”

He certainly didn’t guess.

As the most perfect bio-human developed by the 51 Area, he possessed the excellent genes of dozens of organisms.

Unlike other Cultivators, he distinguished by instinct, easily discerning the Aura of illusions from the true body.

Although this method was the most primitive, it was also the most effective.

No matter how realistic the illusions created by the Nine Shadows Clone technique were, they still couldn't simulate a human’s Aura.

Fan Xiaofeng, however, didn’t know any of this.

Hearing that answer, he spat out another mouthful of old blood.

As a Cultivators, he had failed before and could Face failure, but he couldn't accept losing so miserably.

Overall, ever since he met this man, he had paid a heavy price.

Yesterday, he lost to Lu Xueman and completely lost Face, and now he was beaten on the arena, losing all his Face again.

Financially, he lost 1 billion gold coins, plus his remaining 17,000 fire spirit coins.

If he had lost to a powerful person, it would have been acceptable, but the other party was just an Outer Courtyard student who had just joined the Academy, with a Nascent Soul Initial Stage cultivation.

He had repeatedly mocked him as a kept man.

Yet now he was beaten by the other party with no power to fight back.

Didn’t this mean he was even worse than a kept man?

Thinking of this, he was both ashamed and angry, and also heartbroken, spitting out another mouthful of fresh blood.

Ye Erlang glanced at him with a look of disdain: “Alright, if you have time, go back and spit more.

Tell me, are you fighting or not fighting?

If not, hurry up and concede!”

“I…”

After continuously spitting blood, Fan Xiaofeng’s Face was originally extremely pale, but now it turned a liver-like purple.

He naturally wanted to fight, but he wasn’t his opponent even at full strength, let alone now, being severely injured.

But if he had to bow his head and concede, he couldn't put aside his Face for a moment.

“What, are you still not convinced?” Ye Erlang sneered, “I know what you’re thinking.

You want to fiercely stomp me (This chapter is not finished, please turn the page) underfoot and regain the Face you lost.

The idea is good, but if you want to stomp on someone, you need to have the strength for it.

I’ll count to three.

If you don’t concede, I’ll make my move, and then whether you live or die won’t be my fault!

3… 2… 1…”

As Ye Bufan counted down, he also flexed his wrists.

The moment his ‘1’ just left his lips, Fan Xiaofeng hastily shouted: “I concede!”

Although conceding in public made him feel deeply humiliated, it was better than being crippled or losing his life directly.

The crowd below the stage burst into an uproar.

Before this, no one had expected this challenge to end so quickly, nor had they expected Fan Xiaofeng to concede after just two moves.

“Oh my goodness, this new student defeated Fan Xiaofeng right after entering the Academy.

Now he’s already third on the Heaven Ranking.

Is this Heaven-Defying?”

“Too powerful, Ye Bufan is truly too powerful!

He and Goddess Lu are simply a match made in heaven, a golden boy and jade girl!”

“Junior Brother Ye is too amazing!

He’s already third on the Heaven Ranking right after entering the Academy.

The future Heaven Ranking First place definitely belongs to him!”

“Junior Brother Ye will be my idol from now on, without a doubt.

I will make him my lifelong goal…”

Everyone present expressed their thoughts, desperately conveying their inner shock and admiration!

Their attitude towards him had changed drastically from before.

When they first learned that he was Lu Xueman’s man, they were all filled with righteous indignation, feeling that it was like a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung.

Now, they were completely conquered by Ye Bufan’s performance, feeling that only such a Martial Dao Genius could be worthy of Cangfeng Academy’s number one goddess, Lu Xueman.

At this moment, Fan Xiaofeng had already run off the stage and stood with Duan Wei and a few others.

They looked at each other, seeing the disappointment and shame in each other’s eyes.

They were once prominent figures in the entire Cangfeng Academy, but now they were all in a worse state than the last, not only beaten black and blue but also having lost all the fire spirit coins in their pockets.

At this moment, how could they not understand what was going on?

From the very beginning, they had fallen into the trap set by the other party, jumping in one by one, leading to their current miserable outcome.

They all hated Ye Bufan to the core, yet they were helpless.

Facing so many mocking glances, they no longer had the Face to stay there and could only lower their heads and leave dejectedly.
