Getting Stronger By Fighting

Chapter 1056 - 1054: Returning Cloud Pavilion Ancestor

Time passed by minute by minute, Wang Zhan and his companions continued to sit there, quietly watching the show.

After all, it’s not every day you can witness a dogfight, and with so many people involved in this brawl, it makes the whole situation even more interesting.

Wang Zhan’s fingers tapped lightly on the table, with his eyes constantly scanning back and forth over the crowd, all the while maintaining a smile at the corner of his lips. His gaze landed on Zhao Feiyu beside him, and he spoke casually, "Watching them fight is so amusing. We’ll just sit here quietly and let them continue to struggle. Anyway, once they’re done, I don’t plan on letting anyone leave."

Actually, Wang Zhan was only joking with them. Even though everything was Ye Yunfeng’s intention, with Zuo Linglong already severely injured, it meant that everyone present had a part to play, so how could things possibly end easily?

Zhao Feiyu was already eager to act, having been ready to make a move for some time. But since Wang Zhan had not given him the opportunity, he naturally had to wait patiently to avoid upsetting Wang Zhan.

Moreover, in this chaotic situation, no one knows what might happen, and Zhao Feiyu understands Wang Zhan’s thoughts. Surely, Wang Zhan intends to take care of him and Sword Spirit.

With a loud bang, Ye Yunfeng’s face turned pale, and immediately, a longsword appeared in his hand, joining the fray with the crowd again.

Even Wang Zhan’s gaze landed on that longsword, showing a slight smile. He glanced at Sword Spirit beside him and spoke lightly, "Judging by the aura of this sword, it should be a divine weapon. No wonder he can be the master of Returning Cloud Pavilion; it turns out he has his own foundation. Now that he’s revealed his divine weapon, I believe the people here may not be his match."

Until this moment, Wang Zhan gradually understood what others had said before. Why did Returning Cloud Pavilion become what it is now? Clearly, because these people are like scattered sand, even attacking companions for their own interests. Even though Wang Zhan has no grievances with them, he is extremely disgusted by such people. In Inside Tian Pavilion, there are no such people. Like in battles met before, everyone even stood up. Even if Wang Zhan stood in front of them, they did not easily retreat and wanted to stand shoulder to shoulder with him.

In the end, they had to activate Sect Protection Formation, but even so, no one bowed their head.

This is the biggest difference between the two.

Wang Zhan hugged his shoulders, continuing to speak, "If this continues, it shouldn’t take long to determine the winner; that’s when we should make our move. And the people here may not withstand Ye Yunfeng’s offensive. Instead, it would be better to give Zhao Feiyu a chance to spar with Ye Yunfeng — it would be an exciting opportunity for him."

Hearing this, Ye Yunfeng’s eyes lit up. He quickly stepped in front of Wang Zhan, clenched his fists, and promptly said, "Alright, alright! Thank you, Brother Wang, for this opportunity. But rest assured, I will definitely not let them off! Even against a mere Ye Yunfeng, I don’t regard him at all!"

Though Ye Yunfeng’s strength was evident, Zhao Feiyu was the weakest among them. But when he was in the sea domain, he also encountered many formidable foes, and even knowing the opponent’s strength, he never retreated.

Last time in the sea domain, it was precisely because of this that he ended up fighting fiercely with others.

If it weren’t for Wang Zhan’s sudden assistance, he might have already been a corpse by now — one of the main reasons he willingly stays by Wang Zhan’s side.

After all, Wang Zhan is not only a powerful figure of the current era, but he also wields divine weapons like Poseidon’s Trident and Crystal Armor. Those in the sea domain even respect him greatly for this, which is why Zhao Feiyu wants to stay close to Wang Zhan.

After all, who wouldn’t want to be closer to the strong?

But just as Wang Zhan finished speaking, Fire Qilin’s gaze fell on Zhao Feiyu. He looked at Zhao Feiyu for a moment, then shook his head and spoke lightly, "Judging by Zhao Feiyu’s strength, he might not be Ye Yunfeng’s opponent. Though we can watch battles on the sidelines and intervene if necessary, any sudden situation could be worrisome. It would be better for me to test my skills."

"Since I transformed into a human form, I haven’t had a proper fight. I want to know if this body suits me!"

In an instant, Zhao Feiyu’s face turned much uglier. He lowered his head and hesitated for a while, yet continued in silence.

After all, Fire Qilin’s strength was evident, and the gap between them was indeed too large. If Fire Qilin was really about to make a move, Zhao Feiyu wouldn’t stand a chance. Even though Ye Yunfeng is considered a strong fighter, sparring with him could be beneficial. Despite feeling dissatisfied, considering Fire Qilin’s identity, Zhao Feiyu nodded.

Wang Zhan noticed the change in his demeanor too, showing a faint smile at the corner of his lips.

He patted Zhao Feiyu’s shoulder and spoke lightly, "Alright, don’t be so resentful. Even if you spar with Ye Yunfeng, there might be a chance to gain an advantage. Even if Fire Qilin doesn’t say it, I’m sure you grasp it yourself. But I dislike your reckless fighting style."

"I won’t allow those around me to perish before me."

Wang Zhan showed a faint smile as Zhao Feiyu lowered his head, saying no more.

Back then, Wang Zhan was like this, powerful but always fighting recklessly. It was because of this that he managed to protect those around him again and again.

When he first arrived at Star War Battlefield, Wang Zhan was accompanied only by Xiang Tian and Luo Xue. The trio went through many fierce battles, especially in the fifth war zone. At that time, Wang Zhan was not yet a strong fighter, but experts around him grew increasingly numerous. If it weren’t for his terrifying strength, it would’ve been impossible for him to stand till now.

At that time, Wang Zhan also adopted a reckless fighting style, never caring about his life while engaging in battles, which drove many away.

Yet Wang Zhan understood the dangers involved — if even a tiny mistake occurs, Zhao Feiyu could truly die. Wang Zhan had been probing the edge of life and death repeatedly, a feeling truly uncomfortable.

Zhao Feiyu nodded. Perhaps others’ words meant little, but since Wang Zhan spoke, he naturally had to heed Wang Zhan’s intentions.

Zhao Feiyu smiled and said, "As long as I can stay by Mr. Wang’s side, I believe I will eventually encounter top-tier fighters. There will surely be opportunities for me to shine. Since Fire Qilin wants to fight him this time, I’ll just quietly watch from the side."

Wang Zhan finally showed a satisfied smile.

Then, the group’s focus returned to the battlefield.

With a loud bang, they saw a figure violently crash to the ground. Following the gaze of Wang Zhan and others, they then noticed that the fallen figure was Ye Yunfeng.

But the people here were already at a disadvantage, completely suppressed by Ye Yunfeng’s attack. Witnessing this sudden scene, Wang Zhan immediately understood. He felt a wave of terrifying intimidation, and turning his gaze aside, he saw the door, squinted his eyes, and spoke slowly: "Looks like an expert has arrived!"

Sword Spirit also sensed this. Her breathing turned hurried, and she frowned, saying, "It seems the old demon from Returning Cloud Pavilion couldn’t sit still any longer and chose to intervene now."

"This becomes interesting. If this were only to deal with Ye Yunfeng, I wouldn’t bother to act — his strength is so weak the gap between us far too wide. It’s better to meet a top-tier fighter for excitement; since this old demon has appeared, it looks like I need to showcase some skills!"

After speaking, Fire Qilin was about to move forward.

As footsteps approached, an elderly man walked in from outside. With his arrival, everyone present changed faces and suddenly saw everyone from Returning Cloud Pavilion kneel, kowtowing to the elderly man, chanting, "Welcome, Ancestor!"

Wang Zhan and his companions also focused their gaze on the Returning Cloud Pavilion Ancestor.

Ye Yunfeng struggled to get up from the ground, quickly approached the Returning Cloud Pavilion Ancestor, and promptly said, "Ancestor, I didn’t expect things here to trouble you, but you can rest assured, I can still handle it."

Though Returning Cloud Pavilion Ancestor had attacked him earlier, Ye Yunfeng dared not lose temper against the Ancestor, as there is a massive gap between them; the Ancestor could kill him with ease.

The Ancestor’s gaze fell on Ye Yunfeng, seemingly ignoring Wang Zhan’s group, instead saying word by word to Ye Yunfeng, "Truly a worthless loser..."
