23: C23

C23

Ye Tianlin widened his eyes in anger. His handsome face was full of malevolence. The hissing sound of killing intent was accompanied by surging and leaking Spiritual Energy. It caused the surrounding trees to explode and dust filled the air.

In the next moment, his body shot forward like lightning.

Ye Tianlin had doted on his only brother since he was young, and it could be said that he had every request he could ask for. Although the former's talent in cultivation was not as good as his, after Ye Tianlin entered the Martial Hall, he gave Ye Peng many rare cultivation resources.

After knowing the difficulty of this exam, he even specially sent the fire needle, the Spiritual Weapon, to protect Ye Peng.

It was precisely because of this that Ye Peng was able to reach the level of Sixth Layer of Body Tempering at such an age, and was full of confidence in this assessment.

But how could Ye Tianlin have thought that even with the Spiritual Weapon he sent over, Ye Peng … He actually died here.

"Who is it!" Ye Tianlin screamed savagely as his eyes were bloodshot. When he saw the trace of fear and hatred in Ye Peng's eyes, the killing intent in Ye Tianlin's heart surged.

At this moment, the first thought in his mind was to sneak into the exam grounds and kill those unknown assassins.

However, looking at the resentment and unwillingness in Wu Tie's eyes, Ye Tianlin suddenly felt suspicious. He suppressed the killing intent in his heart, narrowed his eyes and squatted down.

"Spear?"

Ye Tianlin Sen said in a cold voice. As he checked, he was able to tell with a glance that Ye Peng died under the spear.

There were indeed a few assassins who had long spears as weapons. However, for some reason, the mysterious smile of Ye Hao suddenly appeared in Ye Tianlin's heart.

"Don't tell me it's you!" Thinking about the Spiritual Weapon Spear in Ye Hao's hands, Ye Tianlin's eyes flashed with a murderous light.

At that instant, he suddenly understood the reason for Ye Hao's strange smile. At the same time, he recalled that Ye Peng told him that he would thoroughly finish Ye Hao off in this exam.

Thinking about this, even though Ye Tianlin didn't have any evidence, in his heart, he had already completely attributed Ye Peng's death to Ye Hao.

"Regardless of whether you are or not, you will die with my younger brother!" Ye Tianlin roared furiously. His voice was filled with an indescribable cold killing intent.

Suddenly, the withered hand suddenly pressed down on Ye Tianlin's shoulder, suppressing his insane killing intent. At some point in time, an old man who was very old and skinny already stood beside him.

It was the Great Elder of the Ye Family.

"Grandfather!" The moment Ye Tianlin saw the old man, he said harshly, "It must be the doing of that bastard Ye Hao. Grandfather, you must avenge Ye Peng!"

The Great Elder of Ye Family wore a grey robe, and his emaciated face was filled with a dark and cold aura. Ye Peng was also his direct grandson, so how could he not be furious at himself for dying like this?

"Endure it."

However, a cold glint flashed across his eyes for a while before he opened his mouth and said, "We do not have conclusive evidence for this matter. We can only endure."

"But …" Ye Tianlin's expression was filled with unwillingness.

"Although Ye Yunfeng's internal injuries are getting worse, he still has the strength of the Tao Soul Stage. If he were to openly attack that little bastard, it's hard to say what he would do." Although he himself also had Tao Soul Stage, it was also because of this that he understood clearly just how terrifying a Tao Soul Stage expert would be if he were to go crazy.

With a dark face, the old man said menacingly," But they won't be long. As long as you can successfully enter Tianxuan Academy in half a year and have this backing, we don't have to worry about you, Ye Yunfeng.

Hearing that, Ye Tianlin gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Then let them live for another half a year!"

"Are you confident you can get a spot?"

"I have to win the placing for Tianxuan Academy, who can still contend against me within Martial Hall?!" Ye Tianlin sneered arrogantly.

"Let's go. Bring Ye Ying back as well and hand her over to the Third Elder."

"..."

It was getting dark

Ye Family, the atmosphere of the Martial Arts Practice Field became heavy, even the air seemed to have frozen. All of the Member of Ye Family present had faces full of anger, brimming with killing intent.

"You must definitely investigate. You actually dare to send assassins to infiltrate while my Ye Family is still under examination. You are truly despicable."

"When have my Ye Family ever been so useless? I must definitely take revenge!"

"Ai, calm down a bit. The Patriarch said he would investigate thoroughly, so what's the use of blabbering?"

"..."

Waves of noise rose and fell. On the high platform, four figures were sitting. After counting the casualties, Ye Yunfeng's expression was quite ugly.

There were a total of 56 people who participated in this exam, 40 people died, and of the remaining 16 people, half were severely injured.

This time, their Ye Family could be said to have truly suffered a mute loss. They did not even know who the enemy was, and even if they wanted to take revenge, they had no way of doing so.

"Second Elder, how is the Spiritual Array at the examination grounds?" Ye Yunfeng asked with a sigh in his heart.

"I've already invited Master Fann Lin to repair and reinforce it."

Ye Yunfeng waved his hand. He knew that the former must have felt bad about the expenses of repairing the Spiritual Array, but in the entire Heiyuan City, there was only one Spiritual Array Master, Fann Lin. Even if they were treated like fools, they had no other choice.

Moreover, it wasn't easy for him to calm his clansmen down at this moment, so he didn't have the mood to bother with these matters.

Thinking of this, he glanced at the Great Elder, who seemed to be sleeping with his eyes closed, and the Third Elder, who had a gloomy expression. He could not help but sigh slightly.

However, if he knew that Ye Peng and Ye Ying attacked Ye Hao and was killed by Ye Hao in the forest, he would not have any sympathy for them anymore.

"Second Elder, something unexpected happened. The result of this Martial Hall Assessment …" Ye Yunfeng asked with a questioning look in his eyes.

Even as the Patriarch, he could not interfere too much with authority. According to the rules of the past, if the participating disciples could not obtain the required items, they had to stay in the examination grounds for three whole days, otherwise, they would be expelled from the Ye Family.

Under the invasion this time, the disciples who survived did not stay inside for three full days. If they followed the usual rules, then it would be too harsh.

"This is indeed a special case. We should handle it according to our own discretion."

The Second Elder frowned and muttered to himself, "How about this, if someone obtains the heart of the Qingmu Wolfhound, they can still enter the Martial Hall. As for the others, even if they passed, it would not be easy for them to survive."

Ye Yunfeng nodded his head in agreement upon hearing this. The other two Elders remained silent. Clearly, they had no objection to this.

As for the crowd present, after they learned of this result, no one objected. However, there were still some young disciples who were somewhat dissatisfied.

Most of these people had attended the examination in the past few years and had been stuck inside for three days, barely passing the examination.

In their minds, although there was an invasion, they did not personally experience it. The dangers were all hearsay and they clearly thought that it was exaggerated. Compared to the three days they had lived in the exam grounds, they must have had an advantage.

"Ye Ze, you really are lucky."

At the back of the crowd, although a few youths were dissatisfied with this result, they did not dare to refute the elder's decision. They could only mock Ye Ze, who was wounded all over and looked rather miserable.

"Hehe, I heard that you were the first one to escape. Your reputation is beautiful. I guess you must have been scared to death inside?"

"I have to say that this bastard's luck is quite good. If it were in the past, a coward like him who escaped would have already been expelled from the clan."

The ridiculing voices of the youths without any scruples caused the surrounding young disciples to look at them with disdain. There were even some young girls that let out pleasant laughter. However, the ridicule within the laughter was extremely ear-piercing.

The jeers and jeers coming from the surroundings made Ye Ze, who was not good at speaking, have an ugly expression on his face. Anger filled his heart, and he accidentally caused his injuries to hurt as he began to cough violently.

"Are you people like you who participated in the exam and hid like turtles worthy of being compared to Ye Ze?"1

Just as the mocking voice grew more and more intense, a voice filled with disharmony suddenly sounded from behind them. "Ye Ze, this time, he's the disciple destined to enter the Martial Hall. You people do not have the qualifications to mock him."
