Zzz...
The Wolf Tooth Club spun rapidly in the hands of Black Maitreya, and the powerful Martial Origin Power suddenly retracted, instantly forming a barrier. The sound of air being torn was piercing.
"Fatty, do you know what it means to advance and retreat freely?" Ye Tian chuckled, and as his Thunder Palm approached Black Maitreya's defensive barrier, just as it seemed they were about to clash, he suddenly turned and retreated several feet away.
"You’re running away again?!" Black Maitreya shouted angrily.
"Look at him, he looks just like a street performer!"
"Haha, that's right, Leaf Young Master is playing with monkeys!"
Black Maitreya's momentum was fierce, but Ye Tian did not engage directly. This situation left Black Maitreya feeling powerless, forced to withdraw his strength and spin in place for a while before finally stopping. Of course, this scene did not escape the eyes of the Cold Family members, who couldn't help but mock him, led by Fifth Brother.
Black Maitreya had initially been pleased to see Ye Tian charging at him with bared teeth; he had secretly added some clever force within that defensive barrier. As long as Ye Tian dared to strike the barrier, he would surely have his arm crushed by the clever force on the Wolf Tooth Club.
However, Ye Tian suddenly retreated, leaving Black Maitreya feeling frustrated after all that effort and now being laughed at made him feel quite embarrassed.
"This young man practices Yuqi Tayan Jue, right?" After watching for a while, Windwalker Young Master finally spoke up and asked Wang Tiankuang.
Wang Tiankuang furrowed his brows slightly in surprise. It should be noted that not only in Spirit Martial Town but throughout Divine Wood County, Skyward Martial Arts was extremely rare. He didn't expect Windwalker Young Master to recognize it; this showed that he indeed had some skill.
"That's right, Windwalker Young Master has a good eye," Wang Tiankuang nodded, holding this person in higher regard.
"I would really like to compete with him," Windwalker Young Master said to Wang Tiankuang with a nod before continuing to gaze at Ye Tian with intense interest.
"Oh? Why?" Wang Tiankuang was puzzled and felt that if Windwalker Young Master took action, it would be self-humiliating. After all, Ye Tian was relying on the advantage of Yuqi Tayan Jue to toy with Black Maitreya, who was a First-Stage Martial Artist. Given the current situation, as long as Ye Tian didn't want to engage, Black Maitreya would find it difficult to touch even a hair on him. Of course, if they fought head-on, the outcome was uncertain. However, Ye Tian wasn't foolish; dragging this out would wear down Black Maitreya's mental state over time. In such a life-and-death confrontation, maintaining composure was crucial.
In Wang Tiankuang's view, aside from Hu Lue, who has already entered the realm of Second-Stage Martial Artist, it seems quite difficult for the others to surpass Ye Tian. As long as Ye Tian does not engage in a hard fight, he can at least ensure a draw.
"Why? I'm just interested," Windwalker Young Master said, his gaze towards Ye Tian sparkling with excitement.
"I advise you to reconsider. Isn't it embarrassing for a Martial Master to draw with an Eighth-Dan Warrior?" Wang Tiankuang was unaware that Ye Tian had already reached the late stage of Ninth-Dan Samurai.
"Why does Sky Mad Second Master say that? Do you think I am on the same level as that Black Maitreya?" Windwalker Young Master replied, somewhat displeased, his tone sharp.
Wang Tiankuang was taken aback; he had always looked down on Windwalker Young Master, never imagining that this person could possess such pride.
"Hehe, Sky Mad Second Master, you may not know this, but Fourth Brother possesses the skill of Point Water Without Trace. I believe he will not lose to that Ye Tian in terms of agility," Storm Thunder Antei interjected with a faint smile.
"Oh?!" This statement indeed surprised Wang Tiankuang. He had not heard of Point Water Without Trace, but the implication of Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti clearly indicated that Windwalker Young Master also possessed skills in Skyward Martial Arts.
"Yuqi Tayan Technique, Point Water Without Trace. As far as I know, these two forms of Skyward Martial Arts were created by the same martial arts master. The Yuqi Tayan Technique emphasizes sudden bursts of speed, while the Point Water Without Trace focuses on light and agile movements. Although they have their differences, they also share many similarities. If I were to face him, I should be able to win," said Windwalker Young Master, pointing at Ye Tian. Though he said he should be able to win, the confidence in his tone was unmistakable.
"Windwalker Young Master will definitely win; there is no doubt about it," Wang Tiankuang nodded sincerely. Although he lacked understanding of Skyward Martial Arts, in a contest of agility against agility, with Ye Tian's advantage gone and with Windwalker Young Master having reached a level of Martial Mastery, it seemed certain that the Eighth-Dan Warrior would lose.
Of course, this was merely Wang Tiankuang's subjective opinion. He overlooked a crucial point: the mastery both had over martial arts. Although Ye Tian had not yet reached the level of Martial Mastery, the power of his techniques, such as the Bagua Thunder Palm and the Bagua Seal Palm, was likely not inferior to an attack from a true Martial Master. Moreover, his ultimate technique, the Bagua Thunder Seal, was unknown to Wang Tiankuang. While commonly recognized as an Earth Level One Martial Art, for someone like Ye Tian, who had elevated both the Bagua Seal Palm and the Thunder Palm to new heights, this technique would likely exceed its usual level.
"That may not be the case. I noticed when he struck that there was blue light flickering in his palm; it must be the Cold Family's Bagua Thunder Palm, right?" As he stared at the fluctuating blue light in Ye Tian's hand, the confidence previously displayed by Windwalker Young Master began to fade into excitement and a hint of seriousness.
"It is undoubtedly the Bagua Thunder Palm. It seems that you have quite a broad understanding of martial arts, don't you, Windwalker Young Master?" At this moment, any disdain that had lingered in Wang Tiankuang's heart towards him vanished completely, replaced by a slight sense of respect.
"This knowledgeable and skilled Windwalker Young Master will surely enhance our family's strength significantly. Coupled with the yet-to-be-revealed talents of Storm Thunder Antei, we stand to gain immensely!" thought Wang Tiankuang, a smile of excitement unconsciously appearing on his lips.
"I wouldn't say broad; however, I traveled extensively back in the day, so I have some understanding of well-known martial arts within Divine Wood County" replied the humble Windwalker Young Master.
"Oh? Do you know our Wang family's clan-defending ultimate skill?" Wang Tiankuang asked with great interest.
"If I guess correctly, it should be the Yellow Rank Nine's Soul Shattering Nine Slashes, right?" Windwalker Young Master replied with a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, Wang Tiankuang was taken aback. While everyone believed that the Wang family excelled in fist techniques, their hidden ultimate skill was actually Swordsmanship, specifically the Soul Shattering Nine Slashes.
"How do you know?" Wang Tiankuang asked in astonishment. The Soul Shattering Nine Slashes was little known among the people of Spirit Martial Town, yet Windwalker Young Master seemed to be aware of it.
"Hehe, I encountered Wang Weiyang a few years ago," Windwalker Young Master said, gazing into the distance as he recalled that great battle.
"Oh? You have met my nephew?" Wang Tiankuang was even more surprised that the two had crossed paths.
"Indeed, we had a fierce battle."
"Who won?" Wang Tiankuang's interest was piqued. His nephew was no ordinary person; at a young age, he had already reached the fourth stage of Martial Mastery—a rare talent seen once in a millennium.
"I lost," Windwalker Young Master said with a somewhat stubborn tone, but there was more anticipation in his voice.
"Oh, losing to my nephew is nothing to be ashamed of," Wang Tiankuang said with some pride.
"Hehe, at that time I did not possess the Point Water Without Trace technique, which is why I lost. If we were to fight again today, I am confident I would win," Windwalker Young Master said, stroking the mane of the fierce tiger he rode on, his tone very firm.
This scene made Wang Tiankuang feel slightly displeased. Riding a tiger already made him uncomfortable, but he couldn't say much due to face-saving reasons. However, seeing Windwalker Young Master treating the tiger in such a manner made it hard for Wang Tiankuang to endure.
"Windwalker Young Master, I have something to say that I'm not sure if I should," Wang Tiankuang's voice turned somewhat cold.
"Sky Mad Second Master, please speak," Windwalker Young Master replied calmly, despite sensing the former's displeasure.
"You are so knowledgeable, do you not know that our Wang family reveres tigers?" Wang Tiankuang stared intently at him, the corners of his eyes twitching slightly.
Windwalker Young Master chuckled and said, "Of course I know, and it is precisely because I know that I chose a tiger as my mount."
"What do you mean?!" Wang Tiankuang was already somewhat angry, his fists clenching involuntarily.
"Years ago, I suffered a crushing defeat under Wang Weiyang's Soul Shattering Nine Slashes. I intended to agree to a rematch a year later, but he told me he looked down on fighting someone who had already lost. Therefore, to provoke him, I had no choice but to take this approach. I hope Sky Mad Second Master will not take offense," Windwalker Young Master bowed slightly to Wang Tiankuang as a gesture of apology.
"Hmph." Hearing Windwalker Young Master's words, Wang Tiankuang sneered and said, "I advise you to change your mount soon. My nephew is not as easygoing as I am; if he sees you riding a tiger, he might just kill you."
"Thank you for the reminder, Sky Mad Second Master, but he won't, and right now he doesn't have the strength to kill me," Windwalker Young Master replied calmly.
Wang Tiankuang's pupils constricted as he coldly said, "Is Windwalker Young Master being a bit too arrogant?"
"Indeed not." Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti, who had been listening nearby, suddenly spoke up. After glancing at Wang Tiankuang, he continued, "This was already witnessed a year ago when I was present. Young Master Yang and my Fourth Brother had a fierce battle that ended with a narrow victory. Before the fight began, Lord Wei Yang did not want to engage but after seeing Fourth Brother riding a tiger, he remarked that Fourth Brother was quite determined and granted him an opportunity to spar."
"..." Wang Tiankuang was left speechless. His nephew had an eccentric personality and often did things that others could not comprehend; the best example being when he was expelled from the coveted Cloud Sea Sect for openly defaming the ancestral hall.
"Second Uncle need not overthink it; Fourth Brother merely sought to battle with Young Master Yang and meant no disrespect towards your Wang family," Jingfeng Lei Kuan Ti said in an attempt to mediate as he noticed Wang Tiankuang at a loss for words.
Wang Tiankuang waved his hand dismissively and said with a hint of self-mockery, "Forget it. If the future head of the family does not care, why should I meddle?"
