In the early morning of the second day, the sunlight shone through the clouds onto Luosha City, brightening the dark city up. The Asura Field was completely devoid of people with only Ye Mo and the Luosha Emperor waiting there. The Luosha Emperor was not worried that Ye Mo would be defeated by Xu Wuji. So long as Ye Mo utilized a tiny bit of the Evil Luosha Spirit Lord’s power, Xu Wuji’s defeat was certain.
Yet Ye Mo still had a solemn expression. He had only been able to defeat the Redbone Horseape’s spirit thanks to the Dragon God’s Will within him. But this Dragon God’s Will was not something he could control, and he had no idea what exactly the Dragon God’s Will was. To defeat Xu Wuji, he needed to rely on his own strength.
“Ye Mo, how was last night?” Luosha Emperor asked smilingly.
“Yes, last night was to my satisfaction,” Ye Mo said indifferently.
“This was also what you loved in your past life. Moreover, you have a fetish for human females. Do you want me to arrange eight or even ten of them for you tonight?” asked the Luosha Emperor.
“No thanks. After the end of this match, I will be heading to the Door of Desolation,” Ye Mo said.
Behind him, a familiar laugh rang out. Ye Mo frowned when he heard it. He turned and saw two people leisurely walking towards the Asura Field.
Only four people were aware of this match. The person leading the way was naturally Xu Fu, and behind him was Xu Wuji, number two on Luosha Academy’s Expert Ranking.
“Ye Mo, you’re early. Are you in a rush to gift Wuji your Luosha Token?” Xu Fu asked before he roared with laughter. His laugh was filled with confidence.
“Hmph. Are you sure he can defeat me?” Ye Mo sneered before frowning. “Where are the 10 Spirit Weapons? Why haven’t you brought them?”
“Do you think you can defeat me? You are not my match. It is a waste of time for us to bring the 10 Spirit Weapons. In fact, you may as well hand the token over directly,” said Xu Wuji with a sneer. He gazed at Ye Mo with a toying expression.
How could a True Energy Realm kid be his match?
As for Xu Fu, he flicked his sleeves before saying, “Let’s start.”
“Start?” Ye Mo snorted as his anger rose. “Xu Fu, Xu Wuji, I can refuse this match and head to the Door of Desolation with my token. We had agreed to this match with 10 Spirit Weapons as the wager, yet you have come without the Spirit Weapons? Fine, I withdraw from this match.”
Although 10 Spirit Weapons were hard to find, Ye Mo wasn’t in any particular rush to get them.
“Withdrawing? It’s not that simple. You have no other options,” said Xu Wuji. He leapt forward and reached out at Ye Mo. But before he could reach Ye Mo, a terrifying power started heading towards him. The Luosha Emperor had moved.
“Hmph. Xu Fu, I am hereby commanding you to bring the 10 Spirit Weapons here before starting the match. Otherwise, don’t blame me for ignoring the relationship between a ruler and an official that we have,” said the Luosha Emperor furiously.
The fury shocked both Xu Wuji and Xu Fu. How was this Ye Mo worthy of this favor from the Luosha Emperor?
“This?” Xu Fu was an old fox in the political arena. He was naturally able to see that the Luosha Emperor was truly furious. He immediately explained, “Emperor, the Xu Clan only has five Spirit Weapons. We truly can’t bring 10 Spirit Weapons. That was why we came empty-handed. In any case, Ye Mo is not a match for Wuji.”
“You don’t have them? Why did you agree to the bet, then? Tell me. What other valuable treasures does your clan have?” asked the Luosha Emperor.
Inwardly, he was so furious he wanted to tear the two apart. If they angered Ye Mo, things could get troublesome.
“Emperor, Ye Mo won’t be my match anymore. I don’t think we need to bring anything out, right?” said Xu Wuji with no fear. He was completely confident about defeating Ye Mo. Moreover, it wasn’t an overestimation to say that his clan was the number one clan in the Luosha Kingdom.
“Emperor, you need to give me an acceptable explanation for this,” said Ye Mo furiously.
The Luosha Emperor nearly collapsed there and then. He looked at the Xu father and son pair and said furiously, “You two, leave immediately and prepare items equal to 10 Spirit Weapons in value. If you can’t, the Xu Clan will be removed from the Luosha Kingdom.” While speaking, a trace of Transcendence Power was mixed into his voice.
“What? Clan removal?” Xu Fu’s voice trembled. They looked at the Luosha Emperor in astonishment. Why would the Luosha Emperor remove a clan that had contributed to the kingdom for three generations for the sake of Ye Mo? Who exactly was this Ye Mo?
“Xu Fu, my patience is limited. I do not want to keep Ye Mo waiting,” said the emperor coldly.
Hearing that, Xu Fu finally understood. It wasn’t that the emperor favored Ye Mo. Rather, the emperor feared him. At that realization, his expression paled with his emotions undergoing massive turmoil. What he needed to do now was to quickly alleviate the emperor’s anger.
“But we truly don’t have that many Spirit Weapons. Even including the weapon Wuji is using, we only have six in total,” said Xu Fu anxiously with his face flushed red.
The emperor said expressionlessly, “You have a bottle of Cosmos Qi, right? That is a Qi originating from the Cosmos Realm. After absorbing it, any warrior below the Transcendence Realm will be able to unconditionally advance a level. Why aren’t you offering that?”
“Cosmos Qi?” Ye Mo’s heartbeat accelerated when he heard that term. Wasn’t that something he wished to have more than anything else?
Ye Mo took a deep breath, his expression unchanging, and spoke, “I have heard about the Cosmos Qi as well. If you are willing to use it as a wager instead, I don’t mind.”
“Emperor, I’m saving that Cosmos Qi for Wuji to enter the Spirit Devour Realm. Can we change to something else instead? We still have many other treasures. For example, third-order offensive seals, pills, and so on,” said Xu Fu awkwardly.
When Xu Wuji heard the emperor telling them to use the Cosmos Qi as the wager, his expression had shifted greatly.
“Since you are unwilling to wager the Cosmos Qi, fine. Ten Spirit Weapons then,” said the emperor after observing Ye Mo’s expression. Although Ye Mo had maintained a calm face, the emperor was able to sense that Ye Mo needed that Cosmos Qi. Only the Cosmos Qi would suppress Ye Mo’s anger.
When Xu Fu heard the emperor’s words, he shook his head. With a wave of his hand, a bottle that looked as if the universe was swirling within it appeared on his palm.
“This is the Cosmos Qi. We’re using it as the wager,” said Xu Fu after clenching his teeth.
“Don’t worry, father. Ye Mo is not my match. So long as I defeat him, as well as the Cosmos Qi, the Luosha Token will be ours as well,” said Xu Wuji with a sneer. Then, after tossing Ye Mo a glance, he walked towards the center of the field.
Ye Mo handed the Luosha Token directly to the Luosha Emperor and headed to the center as well. He gazed at Xu Wuji with a completely calm pair of eyes.
“It won’t be that easy to get my Cosmos Qi. I won’t show any mercy when we fight later,” said Xu Wuji.
He glared at Ye Mo with a sinister gaze. How was this Ye Mo worthy of the emperor’s favor? He had to use his strength to prove that he was no weaker than Ye Mo.
