Peerless Empress: One Woman, One Sword, Slaying Through Myriad Realms

Inside the room, Ye Wuxi did not improve his cultivation level, but instead began practicing the Soul Forging Technique, as a strong soul perception would also be helpful in combat.

Ye Wuxi sat cross-legged on the bed, sweating profusely as if he had experienced some great pain. Soul skills are not easy to cultivate. Although this was only a high-level Yellow Realm Soul Skill, the cultivation method was almost like self-harm.

The essence of this Soul Forging Technique is to repeatedly cut and condense, allowing the soul to be strengthened through countless trials and tribulations.

The night was as still as water. After advancing the Soul Forging Technique to a minor level, Ye Wuxi finally fell asleep.

The next day, as the sun slowly rose, Ye Wuxi changed into a sky-blue dress and leisurely walked out of the room.

Liu Yu'er had already arrived at the inn early and was waiting. The two of them called Duan Hong and headed towards the Tianya Martial Arts Arena together.

Ye Wuxi was somewhat surprised that she didn't encounter anyone blocking her way. She had thought that the martial arts arena would secretly send people to block her path, but it seemed that she had been presumptuous.

"Wu Xi, if you can really achieve a hundred wins today, you'll become famous," Liu Yu'er said excitedly, linking her arm with hers.

"Becoming famous isn't a good thing. My only goal is to earn spirit stones," Ye Wuxi said, shaking his head.

"What are you afraid of? You are Master Chi Huo's disciple, and you are also Huo Yun's senior brother and sister. No one in the Zi Yun Empire would dare to really do anything to you."

"That old man won't care whether I live or die! Besides, I'm not that close to Senior Brother Huoyun..." Ye Wuxi smiled. She had managed to latch onto a powerful figure, but it wasn't always reliable. She had a master, and so did he! Ultimately, she had to rely on herself!

Duan Hongyi laughed and said, "That's right, it's better to be cautious!"

"Brother Duan, are you interested in alchemy? How about I introduce you to that old man?" Ye Wuxi asked with a smile. Duan Hong's affinity for fire was not low, and his talent was also good. Becoming an alchemist would definitely not be a problem.

"No, that's time-consuming and laborious, and difficult to manage. With Wuxi around, why should I bother? When Wuxi becomes a high-level alchemist in the future, he can just give us a few pills to eat," Duan Hong said with a smile.

Ye Wuxi was speechless. "Do you think those are candy beans, eating them as you please? But once I can refine them, I won't forget about you two!"

But she felt a little strange. Why did Senior Brother Huoyun and Duan Hong complain that alchemy took up too much time? After she learned it, she felt that it didn't take much effort on her. On the contrary, her true energy improved a lot. How strange!

As they talked, they soon arrived at the martial arts arena. The Tianya Martial Arts Arena was bustling with activity today, especially the third battle zone, where the stands at the back were already full of spectators.

The first few rows were filled with disciples from various sects who had come after hearing the news, followed by the scions of the major families within the imperial city. Rogue cultivators could only sit in the more distant stands next door.

When Ye Wuxi and his two companions approached, they were slightly shocked by the sight of the massive crowd.

"Won't I capsize today?" Ye Wuxi suddenly had some doubts.

Liu Yu'er waved her little fist, "What are you saying? Go for it! Go for it!"

"Go ahead, it doesn't matter if the boat capsizes, it'll just mean losing some spirit stones," Duan Hongfeng said casually.

Ye Wuxi raised an eyebrow and said, "Just kidding, there's no way I'll capsize. I'll definitely get my hands on this spirit stone." With that, she leaped onto the arena.

"Ye Wuxi is here!"

In the crowd, Duan Hong and Liu Yu'er finally found two empty seats in the stands. Oh, no, kind people gave them up.

Several disciples of the Hehuan Sect were right in front of them. "Young Master Duan, you've kept us waiting for quite a while..." Jiang Xiaoyu turned her head and smiled gently.

Duan Hong felt confused and ignored it, instead turning his attention to the platform.

Looking at the stunning woman in purple, Liu Yu'er asked curiously, "Brother Duan, who is this?" Where did Duan Hong get such a beautiful woman in just one day...?

Duan Hong said calmly, "I don't know him!"

Jiang Xiaoyu wasn't angry, and said with a smile, "Young Master will gradually get to know me..."

Zhou Pei frowned and asked, "Xiao Yu, why are you so enthusiastic towards him? Is there something special about him?"

According to their Hehuan Sect's cultivation methods, dual cultivation is indeed very beneficial, but Duan Hong's cultivation level is not high and is unremarkable. With this Junior Sister Jiang's talent, she shouldn't have found this person.

Jiang Xiaoyu simply smiled in response and said nothing more.

On the arena, Ye Wuxi proclaimed loudly, "All fellow cultivators at the sixth level of the Xuanwu realm are welcome to come and fight!"

The sound spread, and the surroundings fell silent for a moment. Many people showed fighting spirit, but did not rush forward easily.

Li Kui, standing in the stands, snorted coldly, "I'll make sure you lose in the first match!" and then rushed onto the stage.

"Li Kui of the Hehuan Sect! Ye Wuxi, if you are willing to cultivate with me, I might consider not crippling your cultivation today!" Li Kui revealed a lewd smile. Ye Wuxi has good talent and is good-looking. Cultivating with such an ice-cold beauty will definitely make your cultivation advance very quickly!

"Idiot! You've reminded me. Keeping a scoundrel like you around to harm other girls is bad news. Today, I'll rid the world of this scourge," Ye Wuxi said coldly.

This arena is not meant to be a place of killing. People like Li Kui are not worth the death. Judging from Li Kui's dog-like appearance, he doesn't seem to have a powerful master. So, killing him is fine.

"I want you to die!"

Li Kui shouted, a surge of light green true energy coursing through his body, and with a stomp of his foot, he suddenly struck out with a palm towards Ye Wuxi.

"Flower-Inducing Palm!"

A black palm strike mixed with green true energy, along with an eerie aura, made Li Kui appear incredibly sinister.

"A complete mishmash!" Ye Wuxi sneered.

The Azure Rainbow Sword appeared in his hand. He activated his two dantian and unleashed a sword strike without hesitation.

"Phoenix spreads its wings!"

The sinister palm, upon seeing the sword light burning like flames, crumbled instantly like a mouse seeing a cat. The supremely yang sword, imbued with the essence of fire, stabbed directly towards Li Kui's lower abdomen.

"Ah!" Li Kui let out a scream. Ye Wuxi sneered and channeled his energy into his hand, stabbing deeper several more times.

Another shrill scream rang out as Li Kui's true energy leaked out wildly. In the blink of an eye, his cultivation was destroyed, and he became a cripple!

Li Kui fell to the ground like a dead dog. Ye Wuxi calmly delivered another sword strike to his neck before kicking him off the stage.

Li Kui, die!

The entire place fell silent, utterly silent. This disciple of the Hehuan Sect had been killed with a single sword strike.

In the stands, Zhou Pei and Zhao Qi stood up, their faces grim. "She actually killed Li Kui! Unbelievable!"

Zhou Pei said coldly, "This is simply disregarding our Hehuan Sect!"

Jiang Xiaoyu, standing to the side, remained calm and said indifferently, "Let them go if they want. They're asking for trouble by humiliating others. They deserve to die!"
