Chapter 50: The Furious Sun Feng!

TL: Etude

"Do you concede?" Ye Tian held his knife to Sun Feng's throat and asked.

"I concede!" Sun Feng said reluctantly.

He was just an elite martial warrior. Although his attack power had reached the level of a grand martial warrior with the aid of his knife skill, his defense was still at the level of an elite martial warrior. His elemental body shield would not be able to withstand Ye Tian's strike. Moreover, the neck is one of the weakest parts of the human body, naturally unable to resist a weapon imbued with elemental force.

"Hand over the bronze-level knife skill—Qing Feng Slash manual!" Ye Tian demanded.

Sun Feng's face turned ashen as he glared at Ye Tian. "You really want to take my bronze-level knife skill? You'll regret it!"

A bronze-level knife skill was not cheap. Martial Warriors without knife skill talent might not care, but those with knife skill talent would value it highly, even willing to spend tens of millions to purchase it. Sun Feng didn't care about losing a bronze-level knife skill to Ye Tian; it was equivalent to losing some money. However, the real loss was not about money but face.

He had been thoroughly humiliated this time, losing not just his own face but also that of the Tieya base. A genius from a medium-sized base had come to a small base and been defeated by a genius of that small base. If word got out, where would his prestige be? Even his family would lose face in front of other families.

Therefore, he despised Ye Tian.

"Hand it over!" Ye Tian's voice turned cold.

"Here!" Sun Feng threw the Qing Feng Slash manual at Ye Tian, then glared at him with murderous eyes, as if to say, "Just you wait!"

Ye Tian got the Qing Feng Slash manual and was in high spirits. As for Sun Feng's threat, he didn't take it seriously. If Sun Feng dared to cause trouble, he would be the one to regret it.

The duel ended, and the other martial warriors dispersed, spreading the news of the event. One could imagine that the entire Linhai base would be discussing the duel between Ye Tian and Sun Feng the next day, and Ye Tian's fame would surely resound throughout Linhai Base.

One battle made him famous, and that was Ye Tian.

"Ye Tian!" Wind Wolf and his team approached.

"Wind Wolf, you guys came too!" Ye Tian greeted with a smile.

"Ye Tian, be careful. Sun Feng is not someone easy to deal with. You've made him lose a lot of face; he might seek revenge," Wind Wolf warned.

"Don't worry, I have plans," Ye Tian nodded.

Wind Wolf didn't say much more; a warning was enough. After all, he couldn't help much.

After parting ways with Wind Wolf and his team, Ye Tian went home and began studying Qing Feng Slash. It was a bronze-level knife skill and very difficult to comprehend. With his medium-level knife skill talent, Ye Tian could at most cultivate Qing Feng Slash to the same level as Sun Feng.

To cultivate Qing Feng Slash to the perfect realm would be too difficult unless he had a great opportunity to comprehend the essence of the knife or improve his knife skill talent.

Next, Ye Tian had one more primary cultivation task—Qing Feng Slash.

While Ye Tian was diligently cultivating, news of his achievements spread throughout Linhai Base.

Defeating Sun Feng in seconds!

Such an achievement was probably difficult even for a grand martial warrior, but Ye Tian had done it.

Lin Manor.

Upon hearing the news from his clan members, Lin Wanli's first reaction was disbelief.

"Ye Tian's speed is so fast; it seems I've underestimated his speed talent. Perhaps Ye Tian has medium-level or even high-level speed talent," Lin Wanli speculated.

With such talent, Ye Tian's strength had already surpassed that of elite martial warriors and was not inferior even when compared to grand martial warriors.

"Unfortunately, the Sun family is not a family to be trifled with easily. It remains to be seen whether Ye Tian can withstand the Sun family's retaliation," Lin Wanli sighed.

Ye Tian was a genius of Linhai Base, and logically, Lin Wanli should support him against the Sun family. However, he dared not do so. The Sun family's strength far surpassed that of his Lin family. Although the Sun family had no grandmasters, they had two peak grand martial warriors and eight grand martial warriors. Moreover, those two peak grand martial warriors were far stronger than he was. He had once sparred with a peak grand martial warrior from the Sun family and was defeated in a single move.

Many martial warriors in the Sun family had knife skill talent. It was said that this was because the Sun family rarely married outsiders; they mostly married within their own branches to ensure the purity of their bloodline, which also increased the chances of giving birth to clan members with knife skill talent. Rumor had it that because of inbreeding, many members of the Sun family were born mentally challenged or disabled and were secretly executed.

Such a ruthless family like the Sun family would definitely not let Ye Tian off easily. In the Tieya base, the Sun family was also one of the top five major families. With the Sun family's strength, how could the Lin family dare to oppose them? One could even say that a single peak grand martial warrior from the Sun family could sweep the entire Lin family.

On the other side, the Sun family.

At that moment, Sun Feng was venting his anger in his residence, smashing many pieces of furniture. Even some servants were severely beaten by him to vent his frustration.

"Feng'er!" A middle-aged man walked in, glanced at the broken furniture scattered on the floor, and frowned, "Are you still angry about losing the duel?"

The middle-aged man was Sun Feng's father, Sun Qinghe, also a grand martial warrior but only in the early stages. However, he also had knife skill talent, making his strength comparable to late-stage grand martial warriors.

"Father!" Sun Feng calmed down a bit, walked up to Sun Qinghe, and called out.

"It's just one loss; there's no need to be so disheartened," Sun Qinghe said.

"Father, I want Ye Tian dead. Can you help me?" Sun Feng requested.

He was self-aware, knowing that he couldn't kill Ye Tian with his own strength and couldn't mobilize the Sun family's grand martial warriors. His only option was to seek help from his father.

"No," Sun Qinghe flatly refused.

"Why?" Sun Feng was puzzled.

"Because it's a critical time now," Sun Qinghe explained. "Although we've become part of Linhai Base, many people here still consider us outsiders. Our foundation here is not yet stable. If we kill Linhai Base's top genius at this time, even if the Lin family doesn't trouble us, what will the other martial warriors of Linhai Base think? They might cause us problems in various ways, severely affecting the family's development."

"So, we're just going to let Ye Tian go?" Sun Feng was very unwilling.

"No, Ye Tian has made our Sun family lose a lot of face. We can't let him go. But we can't act against him at this time. In a few months, when our family has completely stabilized its foundation in Linhai Base, we can then take action to eliminate Ye Tian," Sun Qinghe assured.

"Fine, let Ye Tian live a few more months," Sun Feng's face darkened.

A few months was not a long time, and basically, nothing would change. Neither Sun Feng nor Sun Qinghe believed that Ye Tian could grow to the level of a peak grand martial warrior in just a few months.

And so, time slowly passed, and the entire Linhai base remained very peaceful.

"The Sun family hasn't troubled me?" Ye Tian, who had been cultivating for about ten days, found it strange.
