A word like a bolt from the blue, the Martial Arts Arena of the Ye Family suddenly fell silent, with only a few gusts of cold wind brushing over the lake, causing slight ripples.
Almost everyone was bewildered at that moment.
Did they hear wrong?
Has Su Mu gone mad?!
Even Ye Jian, who could barely contain the anger in his heart, was stunned at that moment. Did he hear it wrong? Ye Jian was originally troubled about how to make Su Mu accept the challenge.
After all, he had already achieved the title of Great Grandmaster, while Su Mu was just a newly-entered Grandmaster. The other party could completely refuse his invitation to spar.
In any case, Ye Jian was prepared to disregard his reputation and others’ opinions, but unexpectedly, Su Mu presented himself on a silver platter!
In an instant, Ye Jian’s face could no longer conceal his ecstatic expression, thinking Su Mu is truly a good person, offering himself up today!
With such arrogance, even if Ye Jian makes a move now, it wouldn’t draw too much criticism, even if he kills on the spot; at most, they would give a small explanation to the Southern War Zone afterward.
The next second, Ye Jian infused his Qi and Blood, and his powerful voice resounded throughout the arena.
"Su Mu, this is the Ye Family, not the Southern War Zone. It’s not a place for you to run wild. Since that’s the case, today I, Ye Jian, don’t mind taking action to let you know the immensity of heaven and earth!"
Ye Jian’s words were righteous, generous, and at this moment, no one could find fault with them.
For a moment, a look of disbelief and urgency appeared on Ye Wuhen’s face in the audience. Even he couldn’t step in anymore, as Ye Jian held the moral high ground. If he intervened to help Su Mu, it would seem like an inside betrayal.
Ye Wuhen looked at Su Mu on the arena with deep disappointment. Not long ago, he had warned Su Mu, yet hadn’t expected Su Mu to act so impulsively, making Ye Wuhen sigh softly.
As Ye Jian ascended the Martial Arts Arena, most of the spectators snapped back to their senses.
"How arrogant, this Su Mu is truly foolish to the extreme. He probably thinks he reached the summit of the Sword Monument through his own strength yesterday. Now, this will be interesting."
A group of martial artists from the Western Countries, especially the Samurai from Japan, displayed mocking expressions. For now, it was a fight between two Huaxia martial artists, so they just had to watch.
As for Su Mu’s earlier statement, after the initial anger, there was only derision left. After all, who would take the words of an ignorant fool seriously? Everyone just saw Su Mu as a boastful madman and now just awaited the spectacle.
Even among the major Huaxia forces present, like the Gu Family and the Huaxia National Martial Arts Association, this was the general sentiment, all shaking their heads, waiting to watch this farce unfold.
Zhou Mingwu, a vice president of the Huaxia Imperial Capital Martial Arts Association, was filled with disappointment, "Previously, that esteemed individual asked us to pay attention to this Su Mu... but didn’t expect Su Mu to be so arrogant and foolish, even that esteemed individual can have a day of misjudgment."
On the scene, only a few didn’t think this way.
Huangfu Xue trembled slightly, feeling somewhat excited at this moment. It finally came, just that she didn’t expect Su Mu’s action to be so fiery and bold this time!
"Su Mu, you never disappoint!"
Huangfu Xue quickly recalled Su Mu had made similar bold moves at the Guangshen Province selection tournament.
At this moment, Huangfu Xue didn’t overthink, as there was already a prior agreement between them.
She didn’t realize she had indeed seen this scene before.
But Huangfu Xue didn’t realize this wasn’t the Guangshen Province script.
But the Celestial Cloud Mountain script!
If Huangfu Xue had observed more carefully, she would have realized Su Mu wasn’t merely intending to defeat someone this time, but to kill.
However, in truth, Huangfu Xue likely didn’t make such conjectures, as the shocking notion was immediately dismissed by her; this isn’t Celestial Cloud Mountain.
But the Huaxia Ye Family!
Apart from Huangfu Xue, the expressions on the two chiefs from the Southern War Zone who were in attendance changed dramatically, as one of them spoke urgently.
"Leader Zhao, should we..."
Zhao Dong waved his hand, "He is our General Star of the Southern War Zone, and this journey is led by him, trust in Su Mu."
Hearing this, another elder from the War Zone showed an expression of disbelief, his mouth opening and closing, but ultimately saying nothing more.
Zhao Dong’s hands behind his back were clenched tightly and trembling, for this grand banquet held by the Ye Family was originally led by him, but a few days ago, messages from the Southern War Zone arrived, instructing them on this occasion to defer to Su Mu’s leadership.
The two have been puzzled these days.
But at this moment.
Zhao Dong suddenly realized something.
The Military Department respects strength above all!
Zhao Dong immediately linked this to the Phantom Demon Suppression battle; although unaware of the hidden facets, he knew Su Mu had a leading role.
"This temporary order from the War Zone makes us defer to Su Mu, suggesting that Su Mu General Star played a significant role in the Phantom Demon Suppression battle, most likely being a primary combatant."
"Yesterday Su Mu even reached the summit of the Sword Monument, could it be..."
Zhao Dong swallowed hard, his face full of expectation and shock.
"The strength of Su Mu General Star has already grown to rival that of a Titled Great Grandmaster in such a short time; even if he loses, it will be an honorable defeat!"
It should be known that before entering the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pool, Su Mu had not yet advanced to Martial Arts Grandmaster, and it’s only been a month or two since then.
