"Give up?"
Ye Tian asked, blade against Sun Feng's neck.
"I give up!"
Sun Feng reluctantly admitted.
Though an Elite Martial Artist, Sun Feng's attack power under Knife Technique rivaled Great Martial Artists, but his defense remained Elite Martial Artist level. Yuan Force body protection couldn't withstand Ye Tian's blade.
The neck was a human body's weakest part, no way to withstand a Yuan weapon strike.
"Hand over the Green Wind Slash Bronze-level Knife Technique manual!"
Ye Tian demanded.
Sun Feng's face darkened, glaring fiercely: "You really want to take my Knife Technique? Don't regret it!"
A Bronze-level Knife Technique was valuable. Martial Artists without Blade Talent wouldn't care, but those with it highly valued such manuals—some willing to spend tens of millions to acquire one.
Sun Feng didn't care about the money loss but hated losing face.
He was utterly humiliated, and so was Iron Tooth Base.
A renowned mid-sized base's genius defeated by a small base's talent? His reputation was shattered; his clan would be ashamed in front of others.
Hence, he hated Ye Tian deeply.
"Give it here!"
Ye Tian's voice turned cold.
Sun Feng threw the Green Wind Slash manual at him, then gave Ye Tian a murderous glare, silently saying, "Just wait!"
Ye Tian happily took the manual, ignoring Sun Feng's threat.
If Sun Feng dared cause trouble, he'd regret it.
After the duel, other Martial Artists dispersed, spreading the news.
It was certain that the next day the whole Seaside Base would talk about Ye Tian's duel with Sun Feng, and Ye Tian's fame would soar.
A single battle to fame—this was Ye Tian's moment.
"Ye Tian!"
Wind Wolf and others approached.
"Wind Wolf, you're here too!"
Ye Tian greeted with a smile.
"Be careful. Sun Feng isn't someone to mess with. You've made him lose face big time; he might seek revenge!"
Wind Wolf warned.
"Don't worry, I have plans!"
Ye Tian nodded.
Wind Wolf said no more—just a reminder, since he couldn't help anyway.
After parting, Ye Tian returned home to study Green Wind Slash.
Green Wind Slash was difficult to comprehend. With only Intermediate-grade Blade Talent, Ye Tian could only train it to the pinnacle, matching Sun Feng's level.
Reaching the ultimate mastery of Green Wind Slash was extremely hard—unless he found a great opportunity or improved his Blade Talent.
His main cultivation task now included Green Wind Slash.
Meanwhile, news of Ye Tian's victory spread throughout Seaside Base.
Defeated Sun Feng instantly!
Even Great Martial Artists might not achieve this, but Ye Tian did.
Lin Family
Lin Wanli listened to reports in disbelief.
"Ye Tian's speed is incredible. Maybe I underestimated his Speed Talent. Perhaps it's Intermediate-grade or even High-grade Speed Talent!"
Such Talent made Ye Tian's strength surpass Elite Martial Artists and comparable to Great Martial Artists.
"Too bad the Sun Family is not to be trifled with. Let's see if Ye Tian can withstand their revenge!"
Lin Wanli sighed.
Ye Tian was their base's genius, and logically, Lin Family should support him against Sun Family. But Lin Wanli dared not.
The Sun Family was far more powerful.
Though without Grandmasters, Sun Family had two peak Great Martial Artists and eight other Great Martial Artists.
Those two peak Great Martial Artists were stronger than Lin Wanli. He had been defeated in one strike by one of them before.
Many Sun Family Martial Artists had Blade Talent, a result of their inbreeding among close branches to keep pure blood and increase chances of Blade Talent.
Unfortunately, this also caused many to be born disabled or mentally handicapped, who were secretly executed.
Such a ruthless clan wouldn't easily let Ye Tian live.
In Iron Tooth Base, Sun Family ranked among the top five.
With their power, Lin Family couldn't hope to resist.
One peak Great Martial Artist from Sun Family could wipe out the whole Lin Family.
Sun Family
At the Sun Family residence, Sun Feng was furious, smashing furniture and punishing servants to vent his rage.
"Feng'er!"
A middle-aged man entered, frowned at the mess, and said, "Still angry over losing the match?"
This man was Sun Feng's father, Sun Qinghe, a Great Martial Artist at an early stage, also with Blade Talent, comparable to late Great Martial Artist strength.
"Father!"
Sun Feng calmed down and greeted him.
"It's just one loss. Don't be so down!"
Sun Qinghe advised.
"Father, I want Ye Tian dead. Can you help?"
Sun Feng asked.
He knew he couldn't kill Ye Tian himself or mobilize the Sun Family's Great Martial Artists, so he appealed to his father.
"No!"
Sun Qinghe refused firmly.
"Why not?"
Sun Feng was puzzled.
Ye Tian was just a high-grade Cultivation Talent; no matter what, he was insignificant before Sun Family.
If Sun Qinghe intervened, Ye Tian would surely die.
"Because now is a critical period!"
Sun Qinghe explained.
"Though we joined Seaside Base, many still see us as outsiders, and our foothold here is unstable. Killing Seaside Base's top genius now might not cause trouble with Lin Family, but others might create obstacles. That would seriously harm the family's development."
"Then should we just ignore Ye Tian?"
Sun Feng was reluctant.
"No, Ye Tian embarrassed Sun Family badly; we won't let it go. But not now. In a few months, after our family stabilizes in Seaside Base, we'll kill Ye Tian."
Sun Qinghe promised.
"Fine, let Ye Tian live a few more months!"
Sun Feng said darkly.
A few months wasn't long, and neither believed Ye Tian would grow to rival a peak Great Martial Artist by then.
Time passed quietly throughout Seaside Base.
"Sun Family hasn't caused trouble?"
After about ten days of training, Ye Tian wondered.
