The Martial Emperor with Dragon Blood

Ye Mo’s words shocked all the league members present once again. Being able to receive a Burden Water Seal by simply testing the effects of Ye Mo’s seal was a temptation that not everyone was able to resist.

If the Burden Water Seal’s effect was indeed like what Ye Mo described, Energy Shaping Seventh Realm fighters carrying this seal would be able to battle their Eighth Realm counterparts.

“Interesting, this Ye Mo. If the seal really works like he described, he could be considered a talent.”

Xuan Ji’s heart skipped a beat. Looking at Ye Changsheng and his pair of anger-filled eyes ready to explode at any time, she couldn’t help but let out a hint of a wry smile.

“I am willing to try!” An Energy Shaping Eighth Realm elite fighter said, directly jumping in the center of the conference hall.

“Many thanks to you, brother!” Ye Mo channelled water-based energy into the Burden Water Seal and the seal flew up, floating above the head of his opponent. Like a sky filled with dark clouds, a heavy downpour started coming down from the seal, causing the elite league member’s whole body to be wet.

Following that, the elite league member’s face revealed an expression of shock.

“How is this possible? The rainwater made my whole body wet, and it feels like thousands of pounds of giant boulders weighing down on me. Amazing! If I matched up against a fighter with this type of seal, I would definitely lose.”

Seeing that the elite league member’s expression seemed genuine, the crowd’s faces all started to show looks of disbelief.

“Zhao Qiang, no need to panic. Just use your own energy to evaporate the moisture, and the effect of the seal will vanish on its own.” Xuan Ji said calmly, “However, this seal can indeed be used on those who are unprepared. The first place for this first round of tests goes to Ye Mo!”

It was indeed extremely incredible that Xuan Ji was able to spot the weakness of the seal with a glance.

The results of the first round was extremely apparent, with Ye Mo undoubtedly clinching the first place. Huo Qingyun placed second, with the other three taking up the final three placings.

All the league members were still engrossed in the seal that Ye Mo had cultivated and bursted into cheers. The cheers did not last very long though, with everyone knowing that the second round of tests was going to be even more exciting.

“Up next will be the second round of tests. This round will be testing the sealing artists’ highest standards. Hence, all of you can cultivate your best seal.”

Hearing that, everyone in the crowd led out a cheer, with expressions of excitement seen on their faces. With the second round not having any limitations, everyone could demonstrate their highest levels of seal technique.

“All of you shall prepare your own ingredients and cultivate a seal that you are best at making. Time allowance is half an hour. The test begins now!”

As the middle-aged league member finished his announcement, the whole hall started to quieten down.

Every pair of eyes was filled with excitement as they stared at those five competitors.

However, due to Ye Mo’s impressive performance during the first round, most of the league members had their eyes fixated on him.

The five of them returned to their positions and each took out the heart-stones that they had prepared themselves.

Huo Qingyun immediately took out a thunder elemental heart-stone, which instantly brought about intervals of thunderous noise. The others took out their rare heart-stones as well.

“Watch me use one hand and glide with two fingers!” Huo Qingyun switched from using two fingers with a single hand to a finger from each hand, both fingers controlling the thunder elemental energy as he drew the seal texts.

“Is a technique like this worth showing off?”

As the people’s gazes slowly turned to Huo Qingyun, Ye Mo smiled before kicking the Xuan Yun crystal table out and throwing the seal paper into the air.

Every league member in the conference hall was confused regarding what Ye Mo was trying to do.

Even some of the older league members in the Qingyun League showed suspicious expressions.

Following that, Ye Mo unleashed a dark elemental heart-stone, moving both of his fingers. As the seal paper floated in the air, his fingers danced along as well.

“Is it possible to cultivate seals like this?”

Sitting on the throne, Xuan Ji, along with a few other older league members, could not help but be taken by surprise.

“Is this still seal cultivation? Such carefreeness!”

“Ye Mo’s techniques have already reached the level of a master, being able to conjure up seals with such nonchalance.”

“Who would have thought that I would get to witness the true talents of a sealing artist? Cultivating seals with one hand in itself is not something that normal sealing artists can accomplish.”

With a single hand, Ye Mo drew a seal that belonged to the more difficult type. Let alone the league members present, even some of the sealing artists have never seen something like that before. In the conference hall, everyone had shock written all over their faces. Looking at the responses from everyone in the conference hall, Xuan Ji felt slightly surprised as well.

“Interesting, this Ye Mo.”

Yan Zhi’s gaze was one of slight surprise as well. “Changsheng, that Ye Mo’s seal technique is quite impressive. I’m also a Second Order Sealing Artist, and while I can only cultivate Beast Seals, I have yet to see anyone who is able to form seals like that.”

As a genius sealing artist, she understood seal techniques more than anyone else.

In the middle of the hall, Ye Mo was unbothered by all the amazed gazes directed towards him. However, Xuan Ji’s change in expression did give him some delight.

Despite the distraction, he continued to draw his seal!

“You!” Huo Qingyun was also distracted. Looking at Ye Mo, his face started to slightly tremble as well.

“Hehe, remember that bet!” Ye Mo said softly. If Ye Mo won first place this round as well, he would emerge victorious regardless of who finished second in the third round.

Just as Ye Mo finished speaking, the Motionless Hell King Seal that was floating in mid-air burst open, giving off a huge explosion.

Every fighter in the conference hall was stunned by what they had just seen.

“Haha, who told you to show off your tricks? Now that your cultivation has failed, I’ll see how you’ll be able to recover from the mental drainage caused by the failed cultivation process! Even if you can resist it, your energy is already damaged – you won’t even have the time or the energy to cultivate another seal.”

Huo Qingyun let out a loud laugh as he continued drawing his seal, now at an even quicker speed.

If Ye Mo finished last place in the second place, Huo Qingyun would be able to win the competition so long as he finished anything above last place.

Thinking about successfully being selected as an honorary sealing artist and being able to cripple Ye Mo’s limbs, Huo Qingyun’s heart started to get excited.

“Darn it, this Motionless Hell King Seal isn’t so easy to cultivate after all!” Ye Mo had successfully entered the Energy Shaping Fourth Realm, which meant that he could cultivate now a Motionless Hell King Seal. However, this did not mean that Ye Mo could guarantee the success of cultivating it a second time.

Standing rooted to the ground, the motionless Ye Mo started to awaken the Giant Dragon Powers and the Motionless Hell King Defence, which had been mentally drained.

“Changsheng, Ye Mo failed to cultivate his seal and is currently suffering from the seal’s mental drainage. He must have been trying for a seal of greater difficulty. He may completely fail the second round of test,” Yan Zhi said as she smiled

Hearing that, Ye Changsheng’s eyes lit up as he, tooo, smiled. “One misstep leads to an eternity of regret. This is the true image of Ye Mo.”
