Chapter 745: Facing Ye Cao

In the Forbidden Realm, within the Five Sect World, the third stage of the individual battles officially commenced.

At the very beginning, the opponents Wu Yifan encountered were not very strong, all being around Level Ten Late Stage to Perfection. Moreover, those Prodigies, upon seeing that their opponent was him, chose to surrender without hesitation.

This made Wu Yifan feel extremely disappointed, as he had genuinely wanted to defeat them and absorb and refine the Forbidden Power within their bodies.

"I hope to Face Ye Cao and Bai Chen soon, and then eliminate them," Wu Yifan thought secretly. Based on his understanding of Ye Cao, the other party would probably not choose to surrender if they faced him, but would fight him to the death. Then he could just take care of the other party if he wasn't careful enough.

With the Dean backing him up, Wu Yifan had nothing to worry about. After all, the Five Sect Competition was inherently a matter of life and death; losing one person was a very normal occurrence.

As time passed, a year quietly slipped by, and only a few dozen Prodigies participating in the Five Sect Competition remained. Wu Yifan, coincidentally, had not faced Ye Cao or Bai Chen, as if it were arranged to make the final decisive battle more exciting.

During this year, Wu Yifan could have long since broken through to level eleven Late Stage, but he chose not to. If he had broken through, Ye Cao and Bai Chen would have chosen to surrender when they faced him, thus eliminating his chance to kill them.

Therefore, Wu Yifan's idea was to first fight them at the level eleven Middle Stage when facing Ye Cao or Bai Chen, then seemingly with great difficulty defeat Ye Cao or Bai Chen. The remaining one might think he relied on luck, and then let his guard down when facing him. He would then break through to level eleven Late Stage during the fight and instantly kill the opponent.

However, imagination was beautiful, and Wu Yifan was not sure if the plan would go so smoothly. He could only leave it to fate.

And soon, Wu Yifan faced Ye Cao again. After confirming the matchup, both Wu Yifan and Ye Cao appeared extremely excited.

Wu Yifan: "Finally facing Ye Cao! I must properly plan my tactics and strive to eliminate Ye Cao."

Ye Cao: "Finally facing Wu Yifan! He actually dared to snatch the first place in my Points Battle! This Young Master will definitely make you pay a heavy price! It is your honor to die by this Young Master's hand."

The moment the news spread, the three from the Dust World arrived before Wu Yifan.

Snow Snake looked at Wu Yifan and spoke with an extremely grave expression: "Junior Brother, if you find yourself unable to win, you must choose to surrender at the first moment. Losing is not shameful, after all, that guy Ye Cao has cultivated for tens of thousands of years longer than you. Give you some more time, and he will definitely not compare to you."

"That's right, Junior Brother. If you can't beat him, remember to admit defeat immediately and don't cling to saving Face by fighting to the bitter end," Chun Liang also chimed in from the side.

Hearing this, Wu Yifan felt a bit like laughing and crying: "Where did you all get the idea that I'm no match for Ye Cao? Wasn't my performance in the Points Battle earlier completely equal to Ye Cao's?"

Hearing Wu Yifan's words, Chun Liang, who had been very quiet, finally spoke: "But during the Points Battle, Ye Cao was careless and didn't go all out against you. Otherwise, you might not have been his opponent."

As Chun Liang spoke, Snow Snake and Chen Shi on the side nodded and agreed: "Exactly. Ye Cao probably underestimated you when you were in the Forbidden Realm, so he didn't unleash his full power. This time, he will probably go all out. So, if you sense you are outmatched, don't hesitate, just forfeit and admit defeat."

Hearing this, Wu Yifan looked at them seriously and asked: "You all think Ye Cao didn't unleash his full power, but is there a possibility that I also didn't unleash my full power?"

The moment he finished speaking, the three of Chun Liang were stunned. Clearly, they had not considered this possibility.

Without waiting for them to speak again, Wu Yifan said: "In short, I have my own measure for this matter. I know what I should do. You don't need to worry about me."

After Wu Yifan finished speaking, he waved his hand and walked out. He was going to defeat Ye Cao.

On the other side, Bai Chen also received this news, and a hint of amusement appeared in his eyes.

After the Points Battle ended, he had gone to watch the battle footage between Wu Yifan and Ye Cao. With just one glance, he could tell that Ye Cao had not exerted his full strength against Wu Yifan at the beginning.

But the subsequent strike absolutely unleashed all his power, yet it was still blocked by Wu Yifan. Moreover, he always felt that Wu Yifan might not have unleashed his full power either.

"Interesting. Since that's the case, let Ye Cao test the waters for me. I hope, Huang Yuan, you don't disappoint me."

In the battle Small World, upon learning that his opponent was Wu Yifan, Ye Cao immediately entered the Small World to wait.

As Wu Yifan entered the Small World, Ye Cao, who had been sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed meditating, opened his eyes immediately. The look in his eyes towards Wu Yifan was filled with killing intent.

The next second, Ye Cao stood up and looked at Wu Yifan, saying: "Huang Yuan, I have to admit that your talent is indeed above mine, but currently, you are inferior to me. Therefore, in this battle, I will kill you!"

Hearing Ye Cao's words, Wu Yifan's expression did not change at all. He looked at Ye Cao and said calmly: "If you have that capability, you are welcome anytime. But if you don't, then die here!"

The moment Wu Yifan finished speaking, he suddenly made his move!

The instant both of them entered the battle Small World, the fight had already begun.

Facing Wu Yifan's sudden attack, Ye Cao's expression changed slightly, but he quickly reacted. Ye Cao directly drew two scimitars and blocked Wu Yifan's attack.

But the incomparably powerful force still transmitted through the Long Spear to Ye Cao's body, directly sending Ye Cao flying backward.

After finally stopping, Wu Yifan's figure rushed in front of him like a phantom, followed by a storm of attacks surging towards him. Ye Cao could only resist in an extremely wretched manner.

This also greatly boosted the confidence of Snow Snake and the other two outside: "Well done, Junior Brother, fight like that!"

On the other side, the Master of Tianyin Mountain saw this scene, and his expression looked extremely ugly. He didn't expect a level eleven Middle Stage to be able to suppress the Prodigy of his Mount Tianyin, who was at level eleven Late Stage.

Dean Gu Yuan, looking at the Master of Tianyin Mountain, couldn't help but laugh loudly: "Tianyin, it seems your Mount Tianyin Disciples still need more training. To be unable to defeat my Gu Yuan Academy Disciple while having a higher minor Realm is truly inexcusable."

Hearing this, the Master of Tianyin Mountain's expression became even uglier, turning as black as the bottom of a pot. But the Master of Tianyin Mountain still forced himself to say: "This is just my Mount Tianyin Disciple showing mercy. If he used his full strength, he probably would have instantly killed your Gu Yuan Academy Disciple long ago. Just wait and see, the winner will definitely be my Mount Tianyin Disciple!"

"Then I shall wait and see," Dean Gu Yuan chuckled.

Although he really wanted to see Wu Yifan defeat Ye Cao, he was actually very clear in his heart that it would be very difficult. He could only hope that Wu Yifan could create a miracle.
