Peerless Medicine God

Chapter 31: Abilities Astounding Everyone

Chapter 31: Abilities Astounding Everyone . . .

"This fellow is really dumb like a pig!"

As Fei Qingping haughtily allowed three moves in the impending match, Wan Yuan, seated among the audience, ground his teeth in frustration. Despite countless warnings in the past few days against underestimating the opponent, Fei Qingping's increased strength was accompanied by a resurgence of his habit of underestimating his foes.

Wan Yuan, unlike Fei Qingping, held a considerable disdain for Ye Yuan. However, he made it clear that if he were in Fei Qingping's shoes, he wouldn't nonchalantly declare 'allow you three moves.' Instead, he would unleash full force to subdue Ye Yuan.

Liu Ruoshui, beside him, covered her mouth in laughter and remarked, "Don't get mad, Senior Apprentice Brother Wan. Fei Qingping might be a little arrogant, but right now, he does have the capital to be arrogant. Fifth Level Essence Qi Realm versus Third Level Essence Qi Realm; no matter how you look at it, he wouldn't lose, don't you think? Even if he allows three moves, it has no bearing on the overall situation."

With Liu Ruoshui's words offering some perspective, Wan Yuan refrained from engaging in a serious discussion. Yet, inwardly, he resolved to address this matter once they returned.

"I've incurred Junior Apprentice Sister Liu's ridicule. It's just that this is a deathmatch. Fei Qingping shouldn't be so careless. But I don't think that Ye Yuan would be able to do anything." Wan Yuan shook his head, maintaining a smile.

"That's obvious. Senior Apprentice Brother Wan spent the past few days helping Junior Apprentice Brother Fei's bitter closed-seclusion training. Furthermore, he has an overwhelming advantage in terms of cultivation realm. Nothing is going to happen. What's funny is that just now, Ye Yuan was still showing off as if so many senior apprentice brothers' Essence Qi Pills were already his. Looking at this point, he isn't any different from the past Ye Yuan," Liu Ruoshui's words carried a faint enmity as she replied.

"Oh? That's true now that you mentioned it! Perhaps I was overly cautious. But this way, it does seem more like Ye Yuan's personality."

With Ruoshui's observation, Wan Yuan reconsidered. Reflecting on Ye Yuan's recent actions, it seemed reminiscent of his past tendencies—reckless and overconfident.

Yet, this was going to be the last time . . .

. . . . . .

In the arena, a middle-aged man clad in black walked in measured steps. He was Huyan Yong, the instructor overseeing the deathmatch.

Huyan Yong glanced at the two participants with stoic indifference, showing no apparent concern for the impending deathmatch.

"Since the two of you are here, the deathmatch will begin now. In a deathmatch, each person is responsible for their own life and death."

"Begin!"

Having uttered these words, Huyan Yong promptly exited.

Presently, Ye Yuan, donned in a white martial outfit, stood with a somewhat gallant and heroic demeanor.

However, this valiant appearance seemed incongruent with his strength, leaving spectators with an inexplicable sense of peculiarity.

"Hey, you said three moves. After I hit you, you mustn't retaliate!" Ye Yuan suddenly grinned and exclaimed.

Fei Qingping, in response, smiled coldly. "Just relying on you?"

"Hehe. Won't you know after trying? Here I come!"

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Yuan's figure materialized in front of Fei Qingping.

"Stacking Waves Layered Palm, First Layer Wave!"

Smash!

Fei Qingping was sent hurtling like a cannonball, crashing heavily onto the ground.

Silence . . .

Dead silence!

Everyone gaped at Ye Yuan standing in the arena with an incredulous expression, unable to comprehend what had just occurred.

No, to be precise, they couldn't fathom the truth witnessed before their eyes!

How could he be so fast?

Stacking Waves Layered Palm?

H-he really mastered it?

How is this possible?!

"Just now, that was . . . Stacking Waves Layered Palm?" On the secret viewing platform, Zuo Bugui's laidback demeanor vanished, replaced by sheer astonishment.

It sounded like he was asking Long Tang, and at the same time, as if he was talking to himself.

Shock was written all over Long Tang's face, but he still replied, "That's right. It's Stacking Waves Layered Palm, First Layer Wave!"

"But . . . didn't he only train for three days?" Zuo Bugui felt that his brain was a little insufficient to process this.

Three days to learn Stacking Waves Layered Palm, First Layer Wave. Could it be that this Ye Yuan's talent was even more monstrous than this Long Tang in front of him?

But . . .

Even if Ye Yuan was more monstrous than Long Tang, it could not be to the extent of learning it in three days . . . Right?

Long Tang used a month, and yet Ye Yuan only used three days. The time that Long Tang took was actually ten times of Ye Yuan's?

Isn't it too demoralizing?

Long Tang didn't know what happened either. But among Dan Wu Academy's students, nobody was more familiar with this martial technique than him.

What Ye Yuan used just now was the authentic First Layer Wave!

"If this was Ye Yuan's first time looking at the jade piece, it means he really mastered it in three days!" Long Tang's words were tinged with a mix of emotions.

Zuo Bugui discerned this aspect and inquired, "Do you mean that . . . he trained in it before? This time around, it's just to deceive the public? If it's like that, then it makes sense."

As Zuo Bugui ruminated on the situation, he became more convinced that this might be the case. A smile, though somewhat strained, returned to his face. "That's what I said. How can there be someone even more monstrous than you? Furthermore, it's monstrous to such an extent!"

Long Tang shook his head, offering a calm response, "I didn't say that. It's just an assumption. In reality, I'm more inclined to believe that this was his first time seeing that jade piece."

". . . . . ."

Zuo Bugui was left momentarily speechless.

In the arena, a glint of realization flickered in Huyan Yong's eyes, breaking his usual indifferent expression.

Ye Yuan's strike had shocked him, not due to the mastery of Stacking Waves Layered Palm, but because of Ye Yuan's exceptional movement technique!

While Ye Yuan had previously displayed Instant Flash, the audience's understanding remained at the large success stage. However, the Instant Flash demonstrated just now was undeniably at the great circle stage!

What Ye Yuan executed left no afterimages, deceiving every student's senses.

An afterimage is characteristic of mastering Instant Flash to the great circle stage, but it doesn't necessarily appear in the great success stage. The true mastery lies in the tactics employed, showcasing a deeper understanding of the technique.

In the past, Huyan Yong had invested substantial effort in mastering Instant Flash, even reaching the great circle stage. Though he progressed to higher-ranking movement techniques, his familiarity with Instant Flash remained.

Ye Yuan's execution had a nuanced difference that he couldn't precisely articulate. Nevertheless, it was unmistakable that Ye Yuan's understanding surpassed his own.

This punk isn't ordinary!

Huyan Yong, who initially approached the deathmatch with indifference, found himself growing intrigued.

"That fool! I already told him not to underestimate the enemy!" Wan Yuan exclaimed through gritted teeth as he observed the arena.

Wan Yuan never anticipated that Ye Yuan would succeed in mastering the Stacking Waves Layered Palm.

What transpired within this guy's training regimen?

Just three days!

Something that Senior Apprentice Brother Long Tang took a month to achieve, Ye Yuan managed in just three days!

Was this still the Ye Yuan he knew?

"Don't worry, Senior Apprentice Brother Wan. Junior Apprentice Brother Fei only underestimated the enemy for a moment. Even if Ye Yuan mastered Stacking Waves Layered Palm, First Layer Wave, he can't win against Junior Apprentice Brother Fei," Liu Ruoshui reassured, maintaining her confidence.

Wan Yuan nodded in agreement. He was aware that this strike didn't pose a genuine threat to Fei Qingping.

"Underestimated the enemy? Even if he didn't take the enemy lightly, he probably also couldn't avoid that strike just now, right?" Huyan Yong, situated not far from Wan Yuan, overheard Liu Ruoshui's conversation, forming his own assessment.
