Defeating Xu Ao and winning first place, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Ye Tian's mouth in the snow of Sky Wind.
At this moment, Cold Boyuan and the rest of the Cold Family had already arrived at the Arena. They were all cheering and surrounding Ye Tian, continuously praising and congratulating him.
"Xiao Er!" Xu Tai shouted hoarsely, leaping down from the stands and picking up the nearly unconscious Xu Ao.
"Xiao Er, pull yourself together. I will take you to heal your injuries!"
Xu Ao, being a Five-Stage Warrior, was not killed by Ye Tian's palm strike. However, he felt a soft and weak sensation throughout his body, likely due to the powerful impact of the Bagua Thunder Palm injuring his heart meridian.
"Wait!" Ye Tian pushed through the crowd and stood in front of Xu Tai, coldly saying, "We agreed on this beforehand. Do you want to go back on your word?"
Hearing this, Xu Tai slowly raised his head to look at Ye Tian, whose chest was heaving violently and whose mouth was stained with blood. He thought bitterly, "It seems this kid is also heavily injured; perhaps I should take this opportunity to eliminate him!"
With that thought, a cold glint flashed in Xu Tai's eyes as he suddenly lunged forward, clawing at Ye Tian's throat.
If that claw struck true, Ye Tian's throat would likely be crushed!
"Be careful!" Cold Boyuan had been watching Xu Tai closely, so upon noticing something off in his gaze, he acted decisively.
Bang!
With a loud crash, their immense Martial Origin Power erupted simultaneously, and the fierce force even knocked the already weakened Ye Tian to the ground.
"Xu Tai, you are too despicable!" Cold Boyuan glared at Xu Tai, who had been pushed back several steps by his attack.
"Despicable? Heh heh, if Cold Frost were injured like this, would you still have the heart to say such words?" Xu Tai replied coldly with a sinister expression on his face, seemingly still searching for an opportunity to eliminate Ye Tian.
Cold Boyuan glanced at Ye Tian, who had just been struck by a powerful force, and said coldly, "If you dare to touch even a hair on Ye Tian today, do you believe I will immediately wipe out your Xu Family!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Tai stared intently at Cold Boyuan, calculating in his mind, "Although he is only threatening me with these words, in terms of strength, now is really not the time for a head-on confrontation."
Thinking this, a forced smile appeared on Xu Tai's previously grim face. "Brother Bo Yuan, my younger brother acted recklessly out of concern for his son. I apologize for any offense caused and hope you won't take it to heart."
Faced with Xu Tai's sudden change in demeanor, Cold Boyuan was slightly taken aback, but his expression softened a bit.
Seeing the change on Cold Boyuan's face, Xu Tai quickly seized the opportunity and continued in a low voice, "Brother Bo Yuan, my son Xu Ao has always been unruly and loves to show off. However, I believe you and young brother Ye Tian are reasonable people and won't hold it against him too much, right?"
"Cut the nonsense. You just want to save Xu Ao's life. But this matter depends on Ye Tian. If he insists on killing him, then I, Cold Boyuan, am not afraid to make an enemy of your Xu Family!” Cold Boyuan declared fiercely. If Ye Tian really killed Xu Ao, he wanted to make it clear that he would not abandon Ye Tian just because of a feud with the Xu Family.
A slight twitch went unnoticed at the corner of Xu Tai's eye, but he quickly put on a smiling face. After exchanging a few polite words with Cold Boyuan, he approached Ye Tian.
At this moment, Ye Tian had already been helped up by Leng Ping and others. Seeing Xu Tai approaching, Cold Bo Stone and Leng Bo Feng instantly stood in front of him, fearing that this despicable man would attempt another underhanded attack.
"Hehe, there's no need for both of you to worry. I was just impulsive earlier and will definitely not be rude again," Xu Tai said with a forced smile.
"Was that what you call being rude?" Leng Bo Feng retorted angrily. "If it weren't for my brother's intervention earlier, your hands would have crushed Ye Tian's throat by now!"
"Exactly! You bastard, get lost!" Cold Bo Stone shouted loudly without holding back.
"Cough cough..." After being scolded by Cold Bo Stone, an awkward expression appeared on Xu Tai's face. Pretending to cough, he directly called out to Ye Tian, "Young brother Ye, may I have a word with you?"
In front of tens of thousands of spectators, Xu Tai lowered his status and referred to Ye Tian as 'brother,' clearly putting aside his pride in hopes of saving his beloved son.
"Ye Tian, he wants to ask you to spare Xu Ao. You absolutely cannot agree to him!" whispered Leng Ping, who was supporting Ye Tian.
Upon hearing this, the expression on Ye Tian's face changed repeatedly as if he was hesitating.
Cold Family Everyone was slightly surprised at the sight; such a great opportunity for revenge should not be missed.
"Xiao Tian, if you want to kill him, go ahead and do it without worrying about anything else." Cold Bo Stone approached with a determined expression, making his meaning very clear.
"Yes, isn't Xu Ao your enemy!" Leng Bo Feng also urged.
With the enemy right in front of him, seeking revenge was indeed an easy task, and Ye Tian felt tempted. However, the more support he received from the Cold Family, the harder it became for him to make a decision.
Because right now, the Cold Family was facing serious internal troubles. If he were to kill Xu Ao out of personal vengeance and create a blood feud with the Xu Family, the Cold Family would find itself in a precarious situation. At that time, if Cold Wu launched an attack while the Xu Family supported from outside, it would be a blow that the Cold Family could hardly withstand.
"Let's go..."
Finally, Ye Tian made his decision; he could not allow himself to bring such disaster upon the Cold Family.
"What?!" Cold Bo Stone stared wide-eyed in disbelief at Ye Tian.
"Uncle Leng, let's just forget about the bet. We should go; I'm feeling a bit hungry." Although he felt quite regretful inside, Ye Tian still pretended to be indifferent.
Cold Bo Stone was confused and muttered under his breath, clearly wanting Ye Tian to swiftly deal with Xu Ao.
Unlike Cold Bo Stone, Cold Boyuan, who had been in charge of the Cold Family for over twenty years, was deeply perceptive. He could see that Ye Tian chose to forgo revenge because he did not want to put the Cold Family in danger. So he approached Ye Tian, his eyes filled with appreciation as he gently patted the latter's shoulder and sincerely said, "Xiao Tian, thank you."
Ye Tian chuckled lightly and jokingly replied, "Uncle Leng, if you want to thank me, how about we go eat at Broad Gathering Pavilion for some Snowflake Bass tonight?"
"Let's go home." Cold Boyuan said no more; he understood well the feeling of having an enemy right in front of him but being unable to strike. Ye Tian's choice was entirely for the sake of the Cold Family, and this bond of mutual understanding needed no further explanation.
"Wait a moment."
Seeing that things had calmed down, Elder Ge called out to stop the departing members of the Cold Family. He and Thunderstorm then stepped onto the stage one after another. After bowing respectfully to everyone from the Cold Family, they each took out an item from their pockets.
Elder Ge was the first to speak, congratulating, "Ye Tian, achieving this level at such a young age is truly impressive! I must congratulate you in advance."
"Thank you, Elder Ge," Ye Tian replied with a smile.
"This is the reward for the champion of this Martial Arts Selection Tournament, the Yuqi Tayan Jue. Please accept it," Elder Ge said, handing over an item wrapped in brocade to Ye Tian.
"Thank you, Elder Ge." Ye Tian bowed and accepted it, expressing his gratitude once more.
In contrast to Ye Tian's calm demeanor, the atmosphere in the venue was far from quiet.
"Yuqi Tayan Jue! That's Skyward Martial Arts!"
"I've heard that the rewards for this Martial Arts Selection Tournament are extraordinary, but I didn't expect them to be this precious!"
"Indeed, in the entire Spirit Martial Town, Skyward Martial Arts is extremely rare!"
The crowd erupted in exclamations, while Wang Tianba in the Wang family's viewing area wore a grim expression. The Yuqi Tayan Jue, which had been acquired through a significant investment from three families, had unexpectedly fallen into Ye Tian's hands.
For Spirit Martial Town, Skyward Martial Arts was incredibly valuable. According to his earlier calculations, Xu Ao should have been the one to win this competition. He had already discussed with Xu Tai that he would provide the Xu Family's share, but after winning this item, they would have to share the practice together.
Thinking of this, Wang Tianba glanced at Xu Tai, intending to unite with him to ensure that this item did not fall into Cold Family's hands.
However, Xu Tai did not even look at him. After receiving Ye Tian's permission, he hurriedly took Xu Ao away for urgent treatment...
Bang!
Wang Tianba slammed his hand on the table and stood up angrily. Given the current situation, it was clear that he had suffered a double loss; he had no desire to stay and admire Ye Tian being surrounded like a star among admirers.
"Ye Tian, you truly did not disappoint me." At that moment, Thunderstorm approached Ye Tian with a look of deep admiration in his eyes.
"Young Master Lei," Ye Tian nodded in greeting.
"This is the Martial Emblem of Cloud Sea Sect. Keep it safe, and in six months, someone will come to take you to study at Cloud Sea Sect," Thunderstorm said with a smile as he handed a jade emblem to Ye Tian.
With this handover, Ye Tian's identity had instantly transformed into that of a Cloud Sea Sect disciple. The crowd erupted in cheers, as it was a great honor for a small town like Spirit Martial Town to produce a member of Cloud Sea Sect.
"Thank you, Young Master Lei," Ye Tian said, taking the emblem with both hands, his face filled with joy.
Cloud Sea Sect was the largest martial arts sect in Divine Wood County, a dream for anyone practicing martial arts nearby. At this moment, he had already become one of its disciples; such an honor could not be compared to winning first place in the Martial Arts Selection Tournament.
Unbeknownst to him, the winds calmed and the snow ceased, as a warm sun rose high in the sky, casting gentle rays of light over the land once more.
Cold Boyuan looked up at the sky and smiled, "Let's go celebrate Xiao Tian's success!"
"Okay!"
"Let's go!"
The members of Cold Family cheered with excitement, while Leng Ping and other younger members lifted Ye Tian up. Everyone's faces were filled with happiness as they headed towards Cold Family's Broad Gathering Pavilion.
At this moment, on the Wang family's viewing platform, one figure did not leave. His face was obscured by a large black cloak, making it difficult to discern his expression. However, there seemed to be a faint smirk at the corner of his mouth as he murmured, "Ye Tian, you are becoming more and more surprising. Hehe, now this is interesting."
