Chapter 29: Wager . . .

The Stacking Waves Layered Palm, a martial technique known for its ability to create resonance between the essence energy within the human body and the energy of heaven and earth, amplifying its power to inflict damage upon enemies. This concept, akin to tossing a rock into water causing ripples to spread, may sound simple in description, but in reality, it posed an immense challenge, akin to reaching for the heavens.

Heaven and earth essence energy, being a vague and ethereal existence, required a profound understanding to create the necessary resonance. While martial artists instinctively cultivated essence energy, most could only gather it based on their martial skills without truly comprehending its essence.

As one's cultivation realm increased, a deeper understanding of essence energy was gained. For those initially ignorant, mastering the resonance essential for the Stacking Waves Layered Palm involved relentless training to slowly grasp the technique's intricacies.

Ye Yuan, with a past life marked by an exceptionally high cultivation realm and significant achievements in Alchemy Dao, found it comparatively easier to learn this technique. Raising his right palm, an earthly-yellow glow condensed, forming a tiny vortex. With a palm strike, the yellow light spread like water ripples, creating a deep dent in the wall – a successful execution of the Stacking Waves Layered Palm on his second attempt.

Examining his achievement, Ye Yuan mused, "Well, that's the feeling, but it still isn't that stable. Also, the execution time is too long. Looks like I still need to practice more."

In the blink of an eye, three days elapsed. On the morning of the anticipated deathmatch, the combat arena buzzed with spectators eager for the impending clash. The news of Ye Yuan and Fei Qingping's confrontation had circulated widely within the Dan Wu Academy during this period.

The anticipation reached a peak, as the deathmatch promised an outcome where one party would inevitably meet their demise. The allure of such a spectacle drew crowds, especially since the academy had not witnessed a deathmatch in over two years.

Discussions among the onlookers intensified, contemplating the likely winner. Arguments unfolded, with some optimistic about Ye Yuan's potential surprises, while others dismissed the possibility given Fei Qingping's higher cultivation level.

"Hehe. Who knows? Perhaps that Ye Yuan has something surprising up his sleeves. Don't you know that he spent the past few days cultivating in a closed-door seclusion? Maybe when he appears, he would be at Fourth Level Essence Qi Realm already?" one spectator proposed optimistically.

In response, a skeptic countered, "What's the use of hugging Buddha's feet at the last moment? Ye Yuan isn't the only one who went into a closed-door seclusion. That Fei Qingping also spent three days in a closed-door seclusion. I heard that Fei Qingping has been stuck at the Fourth Level Essence Qi Realm for a long time. This time around, who knows if he might directly break through to the Fifth Level Essence Qi Realm. That Ye Yuan is definitely dead."

However, another voice chimed in with a different perspective, "That's not necessarily true! I heard that Ye Yuan managed to learn Instant Flash, and it's even at the great success stage. This practically means that he is in an undefeatable position."

"Instant Flash? What's the use? Shitty combat power, low cultivation realm; don't tell me he has to keep using Instant Flash? When his essence energy is finally depleted, wouldn't he still be defeated? Furthermore, Instant Flash might be amazing, but it isn't invincible, okay!"

A skeptical voice echoed through the crowd, questioning the effectiveness of Ye Yuan's reliance on Instant Flash. The speaker emphasized the perceived weaknesses in Ye Yuan's combat strategy and cultivation level, expressing doubt about the technique's invincibility.

"I'm guessing that Ye Yuan is making up for his weaknesses during these three days of closed-door seclusion. It's hard to increase cultivation realm in a short period of time, so it's possible he's training some amazing martial techniques. I heard that a few days before, Ye Yuan went to the Scripture Library. Oh right, wasn't it Senior Apprentice Brother Zhao on duty then? Senior Apprentice Brother Zhao, what martial technique did Ye Yuan choose?"

The discussion shifted to the possibility that Ye Yuan utilized his time in seclusion to enhance his skills. The mention of Zhao Chunyang, who was present and on duty at the Scripture Library, sparked curiosity about the martial technique Ye Yuan might have selected.

Zhao Chunyang found himself unexpectedly drawn into the conversation, responding, "It's the Stacking Waves Layered Palm."

"Pfft! I already said so. This Ye Yuan is outrageous! Plenty to choose from, yet he just had to choose this martial technique. Even Senior Apprentice Brother Long spent a month before he managed to master the First Layer Wave. Ye Yuan is too confident. Does he think he's stronger than Senior Apprentice Brother Long? Even if he is stronger than Senior Apprentice Brother Long, how long does he need to master the First Layer Wave? Half a month? Ten days? Seven days? Hahaha!"

A dismissive tone accompanied the ridicule of Ye Yuan's choice of the Stacking Waves Layered Palm. The speaker mockingly questioned Ye Yuan's confidence and compared his abilities to Senior Apprentice Brother Long, suggesting an overestimation of his strength.

"Uh. So it's that martial technique? I was still hoping that he could create a miracle by becoming a dark horse, and finishing off that Fei Qingping. Looks like I was expecting too much. I reckon this deathmatch doesn't have any more value to watch. That Ye Yuan is dead."

Disappointment resonated in the discussion as participants expressed their skepticism about Ye Yuan's chances of success. The sentiment among the onlookers leaned heavily towards anticipating Ye Yuan's defeat in the upcoming deathmatch.

"I've long said that there isn't anything worth watching, but you didn't believe me. This Ye Yuan is just a silkpants whose father forcefully raised him by two cultivation realms. What combat power can he have? If it wasn't a deathmatch, I wouldn't even be bothered to come and watch. Make a guess, how many moves will Fei Qingping take to finish off Ye Yuan?"

Casual cynicism dominated the conversation, with participants disparaging Ye Yuan's perceived lack of combat prowess. The discussion evolved into predictions about how swiftly Fei Qingping would defeat Ye Yuan in the impending deathmatch.

"That . . . Twenty moves?" one person ventured a guess.

"Twenty moves? You are expecting too much! At best five moves!"

"Senior Apprentice Brother Zhao, what do you think?" another person asked Zhao Chunyang.

"Uh . . . That I'm not too sure. But I feel that it might not be impossible for Ye Yuan," Zhao Chunyang replied.

Zhao Chunyang hesitated, expressing uncertainty about the outcome, yet hinting at a subtle belief that Ye Yuan might surprise everyone. His ambiguous response added an element of intrigue to the ongoing discussion.

That person thought he heard wrong and was just about to open his mouth when another voice sounded off from behind him.

"Ten moves. Junior Apprentice Brother Ye wins!"

The abrupt declaration disrupted the ongoing discussions, catching the attention of the entire crowd. The unexpected proclamation stood in stark contrast to the prevailing sentiment, injecting an air of curiosity into the atmosphere.

Before this, everyone's opinions were one-sided; thinking that it was impossible for Ye Yuan to win. The two who were predicting how many moves Ye Yuan would last before he loses were not in the minority.

Therefore, this voice could be said to be very different, resulting in all the other discussions ceased.

"Tang Yu, are you alright?" Someone recognized who it was. It was precisely Tang Yu who returned to the Dan Wu Academy with Ye Yuan. There was even a young lady beside him, who was Lu-er.

"Tang Yu. I've heard that you've been walking very closely with that moron recently. Is that why you also became retarded?"

"The matter of Tang Yu and Ye Yuan returning together obviously could not be hidden from others. It was dug out over these few days.

Tang Yu emotionlessly swept a look over everyone and gave a cold smile. He then said, "100 Essence Qi Pills. Who dares to wager with me?"

Tang Yu's words once again made everyone silent, but their expressions were even more like they were looking at a fool.

"Tang Yu
