As Ye Xiu's voice fell, strands of stellar radiance suddenly erupted from within him, coalescing on the tip of his sword.
The faces of many people changed in shock.
In everyone's impression, Ye Xiu had never cultivated before, and was an absolute waste. He had only gone to the Tianyuan Holy Palace for a few days?
Ye Xiu had actually reached the first layer of the Stellar Force realm already!
What shocked everyone even more was that the sword technique Ye Xiu was using was surprisingly the One Word Sword, and he had similarly reached the pinnacle of perfection!
Everyone couldn't help but rub their eyes in disbelief. Damn, this must be fake!
When he sensed Ye Xiu's cultivation level, even Yue Wuya's eyes flashed with surprise. Six days ago when Ye Xiu caused trouble at the Underground Star Palace, he was only at the ninth layer of the Star System realm. In just six short days, he had broken through to the first layer of the Stellar Force realm!
It was for this reason that the killing intent in Yue Wuya's eyes grew even stronger. Ye Xiu's talent had already far exceeded his expectations. If he didn't kill Ye Xiu now, he would definitely become an obstacle in the future.
In an instant, an extremely sharp sword intent erupted, along with a bone-chilling coldness that seemed to freeze one's blood!
Sword intent, beginner level! Ice intent, beginner level!
Yue Wuya clearly didn't intend to hold back at all. With the One Word Sword technique, along with two types of intent, he would kill Ye Xiu in one strike!
Yue Wuya took a step back, then gathered stellar power in his calves with a thump, and his whole body shot out like an arrow.
The straight sword light pierced through the void, advancing in one step directly towards Ye Xiu.
At this time, Fan Tong and Ye Haotian's faces changed as they clenched their fists tightly, cold sweat streaming down their palms.
However, under the tense gazes of the crowd, Ye Xiu instead revealed an ominous smile.
"I will defeat you with one sword."
As his voice fell, with a buzz, a surge of sword intent rushed to the heavens, and at the same time, a bone-chilling coldness that seemed to freeze heaven and earth also erupted!
Phantom Steps!
In an instant, Ye Xiu's figure disappeared from his original spot.
Ten afterimages appeared.
Under countless stunned gazes, the two figures were frozen at the far left and right ends of the martial arena.
Ye Xiu's speed was so fast that many people didn't even know what had happened.
As a result, sneers broke out among the crowd.
This brat is clearly courting death, comparing swords with the Holy Son Yue Wuya?
Yue Wuya the Holy Son was a natural sword cultivator. No matter how proficient he was in the One Word Sword, he ultimately wasn't a sword cultivator.
However, just as these mocking voices rang out, the senior figures sitting at the top of the stairs like the Supreme Emperor, North Ice Star Emperor, the Emperor, Ye Haotian, Yue Guan and others all suddenly stood up, their gazes filled with incredulity as they looked at the martial arena.
The crowd was baffled.
What was going on?
They saw Yue Wuya slowly turn around, his eyes filled with utmost terror. His pupils gradually dilated, his sword dropped to the ground, and on his chest, a bloom of blood dyed his white robes crimson red.
Yue Wuya's lips trembled as he said, "You-"
Before he could finish, Yue Wuya lost his breath and heavily crashed onto the martial arena.
Ye Xiu quietly looked at Yue Wuya, disdain appearing in his eyes.
Ye Xiu coldly said, "I already said that in my hands, you wouldn't make it past one move, but you just wouldn't believe it."
In that moment, the tens of thousands of princes and sons all suddenly stood up, their gazes filled with incredulity as they looked at Yue Wuya who had collapsed in the martial arena, his blood already dyeing the ground red beneath him.
No one had imagined this outcome.
In the situation where everyone was certain of Yue Wuya's victory, with just one sword, Yue Wuya had collapsed, his heart completely pierced through!
In contrast, Ye Xiu was unharmed, without even a corner of his clothes cut off.
At this moment, everyone finally came to their senses.
Yue Wuya was dead!
The esteemed Holy Son Yue Wuya, at the peak of the ninth layer of the Stellar Force realm, possessing the Tyrant Ice Physique, and comprehending beginner level Sword Intent and Ice Intent, had actually been unable to withstand a single move from Ye Xiu.
When the crowd looked at Ye Xiu, it was as if they were looking at a monstrous beast.
How could he be so powerful!
A first layer Stellar Force realm cultivator instakilling a ninth layer Stellar Force realm cultivator!
Countless people's hearts shook violently.
In fact, very few people actually saw what really happened, because Ye Xiu's speed was simply too fast.
In that instant just now, not only did Ye Xiu execute the One Word Sword technique, he also utilized the consummate Phantom Steps.
But what made the senior figures even more astonished was that in just a fleeting moment, Ye Xiu had also displayed Sword Intent and Ice Intent, and both intent realms were at the small accomplishment stage!
That meant that at the age of eighteen, Ye Xiu had already attained:
Small accomplishment Sword Intent!
Small accomplishment Ice Intent!
This completely subverted their understanding of an eighteen year old!
For most people, small accomplishment Sword Intent and Ice Intent was only possible after thirty years old and beyond!
A look of surprise flashed through Cang Yang's eyes. She had seen everything that just happened.
The Ye Xiu who had been bullied by everyone back then had now reached such great heights, possessing an absolute domineering aura.
But her gaze soon dimmed again.
She secretly thought: Perhaps we were never meant to walk the same path. I'm sorry, Brother Ye Xiu.
At this time, Fan Tong's Blue Dragon Saber slipped from his grasp with a thud.
Ye Haotian's eyes shook even more violently.
General! The young master is not a waste! Fan Tong cried, tears streaming down his face. He had followed the General for so many years. The young master was the General's only heartache, and he too hoped to see the young master truly become an indomitable man like the General!
Ye Haotian's eyes turned red. Who could have imagined that the domineering and awe-inspiring Ye Haotian, the Commander-in-Chief who struck fear into enemy armies, would actually be sobbing with his hands covering his face!
All the repression Ye Haotian had accumulated over the years was released in this moment.
Eighteen years old, small accomplishment Sword Intent, small accomplishment Ice Intent, along with the small accomplishment Zither Intent he knew about previously - no matter which one appearing in a person would cause huge shocks, but all of them were gathered in his son Ye Xiu!
His son Ye Xiu was an unparalleled genius!
But in that instant, an aura that seemed to freeze the entire Investiture Plaza instantly surged out.
Countless people's faces instantly paled. This icy cold pierced bone and marrow.
This was the aura of a Star Emperor.
The North Ice Star Emperor!
Cang Yang looked at Ye Xiu. He had also watched Ye Xiu grow up little by little. He also didn't expect that the Ye Xiu who had been abandoned by everyone would display such astounding talent upon his return.
But when the North Ice Star Emperor's aura emerged, Cang Yang's expression immediately darkened.
The North Ice Star Emperor. Cang Yang had just opened his mouth to speak.
Only to hear the North Ice Star Emperor roar in fury, "Ye Xiu, you're very bold, actually daring to kill the Holy Son of the Tianyuan Holy Palace!"
Ye Xiu turned slowly, long sword in hand, robes fluttering, to face the North Ice Star Emperor directly.
His eyes held no apprehension.
He confronted a genuine Star Emperor powerhouse like this!
"Heh heh," Ye Xiu coldly laughed, "Trash that gets one-shotted by me still dares call himself a Holy Son?"
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
