Chapter 166: Chapter 151: Want to Fight, Then Fight! (2nd Update)

"I’m sorry, the Demon Flood Dragon is mine, and nobody can give it away," Ye Chen directly refused.

The atmosphere became instantly silent and tense, as Ye Chen’s words clearly conveyed that he did not want to hand over the Demon Flood Dragon and wanted to keep it for himself.

An elder couldn’t help but say, "Ye Chen, the Demon Flood Dragon was discovered on the Trial Road, and this land belongs to our Tiandu Academy. It should also belong to our Tiandu Academy, and I hope you can hand it over."

Ye Chen pondered, this statement made a lot of sense. To simply take a Demon Beast from Tiandu Academy like this didn’t seem right.

He nodded, surprisingly not refusing again, but simply saying, "Well then, if this Demon Flood Dragon follows you and leaves, I absolutely will not stop it, but if it wants to stay with me, you also must not stop it. What do you think?"

"Okay!"

Many seemed to agree with this decision because it seemed to be the best one. Only the 13th Pass Master frowned but said nothing.

Ye Chen said to the Demon Flood Dragon, "If you are willing to follow them and leave, then leave, and I will not stop you. But if you don’t want to leave, you can certainly stay. Everything I promised before still stands."

The Demon Flood Dragon turned its head to look at all the elders, and immediately the Ninth Pass Master stepped forward and promised, "You don’t need to worry. As long as you’re willing to belong to our Tiandu Academy, our academy will certainly do our utmost to help you grow. You won’t lack Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and there will be Heavenly Gods to guide you. There may even be visits from Supreme Divine Spirits to guide you on your cultivation path. What do you think?"

Another elder hurriedly said, "Our Tiandu Academy has handwritten notes and cultivation methods from several Demon Race divine spirits of the past, which can be taught to you to pave your path. Pocket Worlds and Spirit Ponds are indispensable, with Spiritual Energy to baptize you. What do you think?"

Many trialists at a distance took a deep breath when they heard this; to win over the Demon Flood Dragon, Tiandu Academy was willing to pay a substantial price.

The Demon Flood Dragon then turned to look at Ye Chen, who simply smiled faintly, "Follow me, and I will lead you to Dragon Transformation one day."

Although everyone thought Ye Chen’s words were arrogant, an intangible sense of strong confidence exuded from him, making others feel a sense of conviction.

The Demon Flood Dragon immediately moved behind Ye Chen because of the latter’s previous display of power and that overwhelming Dragon Power, it had completely submitted to Ye Chen. With a low growl, its huge head lifted Ye Chen up, making its own choice.

Seeing this, the elders’ expressions changed; the Demon Flood Dragon ultimately chose the youth.

The 13th Pass Master only scoffed coldly, "Indeed it’s a beast, really ungrateful. It originally belonged to our Tiandu Academy, yet it rebelled. Everyone, let’s catch this miscreant beast, then ask the Heavenly Gods of the Heavenly Divine Realm’s Supreme Elder to step in and subjugate it completely."

The 12th Pass Master, Elder Mu, slightly paled and said, "Elder Mu, isn’t this a breach of faith? Didn’t we just agree to let the Demon Flood Dragon choose on its own? Why go back on your word now, which undermines our Tiandu Academy’s credibility?"

Elder Mu from the 13th Pass coldly responded, "Elder Nalan, you’re thinking too much. This Demon Flood Dragon is no ordinary beast; it has the blood of the True Dragon flowing within it, which is extraordinary and of great research value. I believe that the Supreme Elders will support my choice once they know."

Elder Nalan’s expression changed back and forth. Indeed, the Demon Flood Dragon was not just any Martial God Demon Beast but an extraordinary one, with the supreme Holy Spirit Bloodline of the True Dragon flowing within it, immensely extraordinary even in trace amounts.

If the Supreme Elders of the Tiandu Academy found out, they would probably not be willing to let it go.

However, Ye Chen’s expression turned cold, and he stood in the air, his chilling gaze sweeping over the many attentions and said, "Gentlemen, I already gave you a chance just now. Since the Demon Flood Dragon has chosen to submit to me, it should belong to me. Do you still want to forcibly seize it?"

Elder Mu coldly said, "Ye Chen, this matter isn’t up for a kid like you to decide. Since the Demon Flood Dragon is found on the Trial Road, it is the property of our Tiandu Academy. Now I order you to let it follow me back to Tiandu Academy immediately. Don’t make a mistake, as there will be a substantial reward for you later."

A reward? Is this how you trick a three-year-old?

Ye Chen laughed, but his laughter was cold to the bone, "Why should I hand it over to you? Since the Demon Flood Dragon has submitted to me, it is my property, and no one can take it away."

"What a gutsy kid," the 13th Pass Master barked with furious eyes, "Do you really think you’re something special because you’ve become a Martial God, thinking you have the leverage to confront our Tiandu Academy? Ridiculous. A green boy like you, if you truly dare to oppose our Tiandu Academy, at worst it will be like three years ago on the King’s Ancient Road, where we crippled you and made you a waste once again."

Suddenly, the temperature between heaven and earth seemed to become much colder, and even the Gate Masters felt an icy chill penetrate their bones.

Ye Chen looked towards Elder Mu, his eyes colder than before, and he said slowly, "Is that so? If you have the ability, then make your move and see how you can cripple my cultivation. But I’ll give you one last warning, if you really strike, don’t blame me for being ruthless."

"Hmph, a little brat who’s still wet behind the ears dares to threaten me? You’re courting death!"

Hearing this, Elder Mu’s expression darkened. He strode forward, stepping on the void, his Daoist robe fluttering without wind. A powerful Martial God Qi Mechanism surged upwards, overwhelmingly pressing towards Ye Chen: "Since you wish to be crippled, I will cripple your cultivation."

Elder Mu joined his index and middle fingers together, forming a sword seal. With a thunderous sound, his Sword Dao Divine Ability was unleashed. A gigantic Divine Sword appeared in the void, its Sword Radiance soaring into the sky, the force of its Qi Wave surging upwards, as a sharp Sword Qi soared to the heavens, directly slashing at Ye Chen.

This was Elder Mu’s Sword Dao Divine Ability. Despite Ye Chen being so young, Elder Mu had not completely underestimated him, otherwise, he would not have employed such a powerful Divine Skill, aiming to give him a profound lesson.

Yet Ye Chen did not make a move. Instead, the Demon Flood Dragon roared, taking Ye Chen’s place to strike. A massive Dragon Claw directly swatted away, shattering the huge Sword Radiance, which could not break even one Jiao Scale.

Then the Demon Flood Dragon’s claw struck towards Elder Mu again, causing his face to change color as he shouted in defiance, "Dare you defy me, vile creature?"

Elder Mu activated his Divine Skills. The Seven-colored Heavenly Earth Power shimmered and Divine Power surged as he took the initiative to clash head-on with the Demon Flood Dragon. Then, he staggered back, blood churning in his body, almost to the point of vomiting blood.

He had not expected the Demon Flood Dragon’s strength to be so terrifying and he shouted, "Fellow elders, why don’t you act swiftly and subdue this Demon Flood Dragon together?"

Several Gate Masters, aside from the Twelfth Pass Master, were all moved by the impulse to subdue the Demon Flood Dragon.

But at this moment, a terrible Qi Mechanism began to emerge. Ye Chen stepped forward, blocking the many Gate Masters, and said, "If you all choose to make a move, don’t blame me for being merciless, even towards the Gate Masters."

"Ye Chen, are you truly willing to oppose Tiandu Academy?" the Eleventh Barrier Lord also shouted.

"I’ve said it before, the Demon Flood Dragon belongs to me, not to Tiandu Academy. If you want to snatch it, do not force me into a real battle," Ye Chen said, expressionless.

"Do you really think you alone can stop all of us?"

The Ninth, Tenth, and Eleventh Barrier Lords all cooled their expressions at once, each one’s aura exploding in full force, all powerful and terrifying to an extreme degree.

"Fellow elders, do not act rashly out of pride." Elder Nalan, the Twelfth Pass Master, intervened, not only because the other elders were too hasty, but also because she sensed something extraordinary about Ye Chen.

He was no ordinary youth, not even an ordinary Martial God, but a terrifying Young Martial God who could suppress the Demon Flood Dragon.

The Tenth Pass Master looked coldly at Elder Nalan and scolded, "Elder Nalan, why do you keep trying to defend this boy? Are you also against the decision to subdue the Demon Flood Dragon? Do you wish to betray Tiandu Academy?"

Elder Nalan’s face changed color at that, and then she responded with a dark expression, "Elder Hea, you’ve gone too far. I was merely trying to offer some friendly advice. Since you are so determined, I will not interfere, but I will not partake in this. At worst, we can argue before the Lord Mansion Master; I doubt His Excellency would blame me."

After a visible change in their expressions, the three Barrier Lords merely snorted coldly, obviously not wanting to escalate the situation to the level of the Supreme Old Mansion Master.

Elder Nalan stepped aside, standing aloof in the void, playing no favorites and merely watching everything with cold eyes. However, her intuition told her that if these elders dared to underestimate Ye Chen, they would likely suffer tremendously.

Boom—

On the top of Ye Chen’s skull, a gush of golden Blood Qi soared to the heavens, stirring the Nine Layers of Heaven, causing the void to tremble with a continuous deep rumbling.

"If a battle you want, then a battle it shall be."

Boom—

The Martial God battle was on the verge of eruption.
