Chapter 146: Chapter 133: Overwhelmingly Sweeping Away All Enemies!

"I am Ye Chen!"

Similarly, declaring one’s name, but now, completely different from when Ye Chen introduced himself to Hai Qingxue and the others before.

Before, it was simply stating a name, but now it was more like announcing his name to the entire world – his name was Ye Chen.

Ye Chen!

It appeared to be an ordinary and common name, yet everyone present had countless reasons to believe that from this day forward, it would no longer be ordinary. From this day on, this name was destined to shine brightly alongside the man it belonged to, resoundingly reverberating along the Trial Road and even across the entire Tiandu Continent.

"Ye Chen..."

Hann Fei murmured the name twice, committing it to memory, but ultimately he sighed in defeat, hanging his head and muttering to himself, "I lost..."

His defeat was not unjust. It wasn’t that he was not strong enough. On the contrary, being among the 15,000 people on the Trial Road, he stood out as the collective might of all the young strong people of the Tiandu Continent. Being ranked among the Top 100 trial participants was enough to prove his strength.

But the opponent he had encountered this time was abnormally powerful, so extraordinary and indescribable that it was impossible to contest.

Such a figure was feared to soon dominate the entire Trial Road; even Super Experts who had qualifications to be called kings would lose hope upon facing him.

Ye Chen extended his hand, "Since you’ve lost and been eliminated, hand over all your Identity Tokens."

On the Trial Road, the losers must hand over all the Identity Tokens they have collected to the one who eliminated them, an unwritten rule everyone abided by.

Hann Fei smiled bitterly, without hesitation, he handed over his bundle, a full bag of it – crammed with baby fist-sized Identity Tokens, indicating just how many there could be.

Upon inspection, it immediately attracted the eyes of everyone present, easily counting over a hundred.

Many couldn’t help but swallow, only someone like Hann Fei, a Top 100 Trial Participant, could collect so many Identity Tokens.

The people from Hai Qingxue’s side didn’t dare act rashly, knowing the Identity Tokens belonged to Ye Chen; they just looked on with more interest.

But the dozens from Hann Fei’s side almost all had greedy eyes fixed on those Identity Tokens, possessing enough of them could easily see two or three people through the entire trial.

This was a massive temptation.

At this moment, everyone shuddered uncontrollably because, at that moment, a pair of cold eyes swept over them, chilling them to the bone.

And those eyes belonged to Ye Chen, who was now looking down from high above with an indifferent, merciless gaze at the three or four dozen people from Hann Fei’s side, like an emperor condescendingly surveying his subjects, making them want to submit and kneel.

The faces of these individuals changed drastically; they had only considered the Identity Tokens, forgetting that there was an even more terrifying presence amongst them – a Young Martial God, immensely powerful and not to be provoked. And now, they even dared covet these Identity Tokens. It was as if they were asking for a death wish.

"This Martial God, sir, we were all deceived by Hann Fei before. That’s why we took actions against all of you. Please forgive us."

"That’s right, it was all Hann Fei’s doing; we were coerced by his tyranny. Please don’t take offense; we will leave immediately."

"We’re sorry, Miss Qingxue, and everyone!"

When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the wall collapses, everyone pushes. Now that Hann Fei was defeated and eliminated, these people had lost their leader, and with the presence of a Young Martial God like Ye Chen, everyone was worried that Ye Chen might strike them, so they hastened to declare their stance, putting into practice the saying ’of the Thirty-Six Stratagems, fleeing is best.’

"You are truly shameless, besieging us with such ferocity before and now wanting to flee when the tide turns against you. How vile and faceless," a girl behind Hai Qingxue scoffed indignantly. She was the first to call Ye Chen "little brother," named Xue Wei, and was now quite perturbed by the turncoat behavior of these people.

If not for Ye Chen’s intervention, these people would never have let them off. Now, with Ye Chen’s display of overwhelming martial prowess, coupled with Hann Fei’s defeat, these people shoved all the blame for their failure onto the one who had been eliminated, which was a faceless act that irritated her.

The others in the team pulled at the girl, signaling for her to stop speaking. Though they felt the same resentment, it was all because of Ye Chen’s intervention, and whether these people stayed or left should be left to Ye Chen and not them.

A rather feminine and handsome man from the opposing side stepped forward, "Miss, I think you’ve misunderstood. All of these actions were really because of Hann Fei. We were all misled and coerced by him, and what we did was out of helplessness. Now that Hann Fei has been eliminated, we naturally wouldn’t dare to act against you anymore."

"Not bad, young masters and misses, please forgive our previous reckless actions," another person began with a generous speech. "You must understand that Hann Fei is one of the Top 100 Trial Participants. His strength far surpasses ours, and if it weren’t for his coercive threats, how could we be willing to take action against you all?"

These seemingly reasonable words fell on the ears of Hai Qingxue and the others as utterly shameless and despicable.

These people were clearly after their Identity Tokens, and while Hann Fei was strong, he had merely become the leader by taking advantage of the situation.

But they all remained silent; now, the right to decide these people’s fates lay in the hands of the young Ye Chen.

"We will leave right now, ensuring not to attack any of you," those people said hastily. Where would they dare to stay now? Standing there, Ye Chen exuded an invisible aura that almost made it difficult for them to breathe. If he really took action, they didn’t know what to do.

Only Ye Chen’s gaze swept over them, and he said indifferently, "Hand over your Identity Tokens."

Everyone’s expression changed drastically, and the effeminate handsome man who spoke first couldn’t help but retort, "Ye Chen, although you are strong, we have so many people here; we might not be unable to defeat you. It’s fine that you claimed Hann Fei’s Identity Token, but don’t be insatiable like a snake trying to swallow an elephant, thinking yourself invincible. Together, we might be able to win against you."

Once one person spoke up, a second and third person also spoke up, threatening Ye Chen indistinctly. Over thirty people together were true Innate Strong People, each a valued young powerhouse from the major forces, with excellent Cultivation Techniques and Martial Arts. If more than thirty joined forces, the might they could unleash would be no lesser than that of a Martial God.

Even those deemed kings on the Trial Road who were Super Experts might fear them.

But perhaps they forgot who Ye Chen was – a man who, with a single finger’s force, defeated and gravely injured a Top 100 Trial Participant like Hann Fei, a man suspected of being a Martial God, an awe-inspiring powerful entity. How could he possibly fear their threats?

At that moment, Ye Chen’s lips curled into a cold smile, and he shook his head, "Threaten me? You’re just a bunch of chickens and dogs, daring to threaten me. It’s laughable."

"Everyone, run!" the effeminate man’s complexion changed as he yelled, and in an instant, three or four dozen people scattered and fled in all directions. Even a Young Martial God could not pursue so many at once; these people were exploiting Ye Chen’s weakness.

"Thinking of escaping in my presence? Can you really get away?"

Ye Chen let out a cold chuckle, and suddenly took a step forward. An invisible ripple emerged from beneath his feet and quickly spread outwards in all directions.

Visible to the naked eye, the invisible ripple spread out like lightning, directly skipping over Hai Qingxue and the others, but those fleeing were not so fortunate and were swept away by the ripples.

Thud, thud, thud—

In the dark forest, the fleeing figures suddenly came to a halt, then, as if struck by lightning, they coughed up blood and were flung backward, crashing to the ground, so utterly vulnerable.

With just a single step, more than thirty young Innate Strong People were defeated, unable to withstand a single blow.

Such skill was indeed extraordinary, awe-inspiring to behold.

Was this the true ability of the Martial God Realm?

"Now, do you want to hand over your Identity Tokens yourselves, or would you like me to continue?" Ye Chen spoke, yet his words resonated like the voice of the Death God in those people’s ears, chilling to the bone. They all hastily handed over the Identity Tokens they regarded as sacred, without the slightest delay or hesitation, and were then eliminated.

This teenager was simply like a Demon God; whoever dared to provoke him would suffer a hellish fate; they all preferred to be eliminated.

Farther away, inside the forest, faint but strong auras began to emerge. They belonged to Trialists who had been coveting Hai Qingxue and the others’ Identity Tokens. Now, having witnessed Ye Chen’s terrifying strength, they all inhaled sharply and chose to retreat.

Hai Qingxue and the others’ expressions shifted. If it weren’t for the overly dominant power that Ye Chen displayed, they might not have even noticed those Trialists lurking in the shadows, wishing to benefit as opportunists.

"Don’t worry. Since they’ve set their sights on our Identity Tokens, they won’t leave us be that easily," Ye Chen said with a smile, then whistled. Suddenly, an earth-shaking roar resounded, shaking the forest.

Then, amid the successive cries of agony that followed, everyone was shocked.

Soon after, a two-zhang-tall Golden Lion covered in Scale Armor bounded out, its entire body radiating a powerful aura, one that even a Top 100 Trial Participant like Hai Qingxue greatly feared. She drew her sword to confront it, full of wariness.

But Ye Chen gestured for her not to act, and the Golden Lion growled softly. Then, to everyone’s amazement, it cozied up to Ye Chen, rubbing its enormous lion head against him, appearing very docile.
