Chapter 110 – Root Prison

The tail whip and the three Qi bolts struck simultaneously as Ye Wei just stood still. Dust flew up from the stances’ impact creating a smoke screen covering everyone’s sight.

“Hahaha! Is he stupid? Both Explosive Steps and Triple Phantom Finger are forbidden techniques! I thought Ning Yang said this kid was worthy of his time just now? Why would anyone in their right mind just stand still?”

“I haven’t seen Brother Ning used these two stances in a while. The last time he use them he brought a nine-star Warrior to his knees!”

“Pfft, this kid obviously has a death wish!” The black-robed cultivators mocked and sneered as they looked at the smoke screen.

In their eyes even if Ye Wei was hiding his power, he would be either dead or gravely injured after taking these two stances.

“Sh*t, this is not good. I think that kid is dead; these Polaris Academy students are crazy! Why the hell would they do this? Aren’t they afraid they are going to get punished?”

The crowd felt horrible. They felt pity for Ye Wei and were furious with the Polaris Academy student’s action.

“Wei!” Joe Yin bit her lip, and her eyes were teary as she didn’t think Ye Wei would just stand still and take the hits! She couldn’t believe that Ye Wei might be dead now because of her. ‘Either of those stances would easily knock me out!’

Joe Yin ran towards the smoke screen in a panic shortly followed by Cao Ning, who was as nervous as she was.

“What an idiot. The funny thing is he knew how dangerous those stances were! Haha!” Ning Yang laughed disdainfully.

“Crack! Crack!”

Ning Yang could sense something unusual from Joe Yin and Cao Ning’s direction and stopped laughing.

Just when Joe Yin and Cao Ning stepped into the smog, they felt like they were pulled towards the ground. They couldn’t even lift their feet. Ye Wei slowly stepped out of the settling dust as the smoke screen was quickly drawn to the floor.

Ye Wei looked relaxed, and he casually cracked his knuckles. “I was hoping to learn something from your stances, but I couldn’t even do that!” He glanced at Cao and Joe then turned to stared at Ning Yang.

“Step back a little.” There was a sense of tranquility in Ye Wei’s voice, and he waved his hand at Cao and Joe.

“Okay!” Cao Ning nodded stiffly and followed Ye Wei’s eyes to the seven black-robed youngsters as he tip-toed backwards. He was beginning to believe his old friend might actually be able to crush these visitors.

‘I guess he has been more productive than I was in these past three years…’ He could not imagine how strong Ye Wei actually was, and there was really no way of knowing.

Joe Yin followed Cao Ning backwards; she was still slightly traumatized.

The crowd went crazy. They never would have guessed Ye Wei could survive and walk out gracefully.

“Isn’t that the boy who knocked Mu Feng down with just one swing?” People started to recognize his face after one of them pointed it out.

“What.. What do you want to do to us!?” All seven black-robed cultivators widened their eyes in fear as they subconsciously stepped back when Ye Wei approached.

‘He took on two forbidden high-level Spirit stances directly and survived, and I still cannot feel any Qi from him that normal cultivators give off. I’ve even beaten a nine-star and ten-star Warrior with this forbidden stance combo, how can he not have a scratch…’ The thought sent a chill down Ning Yang’s spine.

“Let’s get out of here!” Ning Yang would much rather leave than to be in the presence of Ye Wei. Up till now neither he nor his six friends had any idea of Ye Wei’s level.

All seven of them then ran towards the gate as if their lives depended on it.

“Hey, you didn’t say good-bye to us.” Just when they could smell the fresh air from the other side of the gate, Ye Wei’s voice sounded, and they all stopped running, froze in place.

They wanted to run but they couldn’t. Something the ground rooted them in place and their legs felt as if they were tied to heavy rocks.

“You… You’re a demon! He has to be! This boy is a demon! What kind of wicked technique are you using?” The red-haired boy shouted. They were scared, and for the six of them, except Ning Yang, the hair on the back of their arms stood up and they started screaming.
