“Miss Yanzhi, Brother Ye Mo is not looking down on you. I am the one who wanted to tag along. If you feel like my appearance is an insult to you, I can return.” Yun Chuchu understood Chen Yanzhi’s meaning so immediately replied as she was scared that things might be awkward to Ye Mo.

“Don’t bother, Chuchu. I have no relationship with her anyway. Although our fathers have an agreement, a relationship between the two of us is impossible,” Ye Mo immediately said. He would never wrong Chuchu for the sake of Chen Yanzhi.

“Hmph. What’s so great about you, Ye Mo? You are only slightly talented. Do you think I will actually take a liking to you?” Chen Yanzhi said coldly when she heard Ye Mo.

She was Chen Yihan’s daughter. The millions of soldiers in the Chen Clan Army all treated her like a goddess. Those with better talent or cultivation levels than Ye Mo were among those pursuing her. In fact, she had so many suitors, they were uncountable. Therefore, these were not empty words out of anger.

“Since that’s the case, what are you afraid of?” Ye Mo said with a smile. He did not seem to mind her words.

“Hmph!” Yanzhi snorted and stopped talking. She increased the speed of her Lightning Bird and sped forward. Next, a huge palace appeared in front of Ye Mo’s vision as the Lightning Bird slowed down.

“In a radius of 300 meters around the Chen Clan Army Camp is a huge formation formed by 98,100 energy strings that were spread in the air across the Skywolf Mountain Range. Anyone touching these strings will be immediately detected by our Chen Clan Army,” Yanzhi said as she controlled her Lightning Bird to fly a certain route in the air.

Although the energy strings were not visible, Ye Mo could sense that there were countless energy strings around him.

“The defenses of your Chen Clan Army Army are quite powerful. I reckon not even Spirit Devour Realm powerhouses could sneak into your camp unnoticed,” Ye Mo lamented.

“Of course, our defenses were set against powerhouses of the Energy Burst Realm and above. As the population density of our camp is high, powerhouses at those realms could easily deal us disastrous damage by unleashing a large area attack,” Yanzhi explained as her Lightning Bird traveled through the air before finally stopping above the huge palace.

There were over 100 barracks surrounding the palace and around those barracks were soldiers of the Chen Clan Army. Some of them were training the others while some were being trained. The three of them jumped off the Lightning Bird. With a wave of Yanzhi’s hand, the True Energy Realm Lightning Bird was withdrawn into her talisman paper.

“This is the core area of the camp. Don’t wander around aimlessly. My father is teaching the soldiers spear techniques at the Ferocious Tiger Barracks. Just follow behind me,’ Yanzhi said before she traveled amid the barracks. Numerous soldiers could be seen patrolling everywhere.

When they looked at Yanzhi, respect could clearly be seen in their eyes. Soon after, Ye Mo saw a huge training ground in the distance. The training ground was large enough to fit over 1,000 people. Currently, 500 soldiers were arranged in a military formation while swinging their spears around. In front of the formation was a man in silver armor. He was seven feet tall and was standing there with a perfectly straight posture akin to a spear.

“Hah! Hah!”

The spear technique of the Chen Clan Army was quite simple. There were only three moves in this technique which required them to stab three continuous times. This seemingly simple technique had been refined over the years and today it had evolved to the point it contained the will of an ironclad army. A single stab would felt as if an ironclad army was approaching. It was incredibly intimidating and would plant fear in the hearts of all enemy armies.

“The essence of our Chen Clan’s spear technique is the simplicity of it. Although the moves are simple, they are mighty. Nobody could hope to defend against this spear,” howled the man in silver armor. Instantly, the 500 soldiers shook their bodies, the force behind their spear growing.

“Why does this Chen Clan spear technique feels somewhat familiar? Although a will is contained within the spear, a will that is akin to an ironclad army, it feels empty,” Ye Mo muttered when he saw the spear technique.

“Stop!” The man in silver armor waved his hand to stop the solders. Then, he glanced over at Ye Mo. “Which kid is saying my Chen Clan’s spear technique is empty?”

“Ye Mo, this is a military camp. Don’t act so arrogant just because you are from the Qingyun League. If you offend my father, you will have to suffer his wrath.” Yanzhi frowned and reminded him.

Ye Mo cupped his fists and said respectfully, “It is me, Marshal Chen.”

Only now did Ye Mo get a good look at the man’s appearance. This Chen Yihan might be tall and sturdy but his skin was incredibly pale. He had a handsome face and his body was sturdy and imposing with the air of a great general about him.

“You are Ye Mo?” Chen Yihan asked when he saw his daughter standing to the side.

“That is correct.”

“Since you claim that my Chen Clan Spear Technique is empty, tell me, which part of it is empty?” Chen Yihan said.

The 500 soldiers looked at Ye Mo with pity in their eyes. This Chen Clan Spear Technique was created by Marshal Chen himself. Someone actually dared to criticize it.

“The spear technique is naturally good, and is especially useful during warfare. A war is different from a fight between powerhouses. Speed would be of utmost importance. Although the three moves can easily kill opponents of the same cultivation level, and with the benefit of comprehending the will of an ironclad army after long practice, this will not be able to display real power without going through the test of actual battle,” Ye Mo explained.

In terms of spear work, Ye Mo’s Formation-Breaking Spear Technique was far stronger than Chen Clan’s Spear Technique. Moreover, he had been using a spear for a long time. Therefore, he naturally had great understanding of the art of spears.

“Audacious. Who says that a spear technique can’t display true power without going through the test of war.” Suddenly, a solder walked out and cupped his fists in greeting as he spoke, “Marshal, this person is too arrogant. His cultivation level is only at Energy Shaping Ninth Realm yet he dares to criticize the Chen Clan Spear Technique. Let me teach him the power of Chen Clan Spear Technique.”

Chen Yihan did not stop him. Clearly he also wanted to test Ye Mo’s strength. He wanted to see for himself how capable was Ye Qing’s son, even if he had already heard that Ye Mo was a chief elect. He would only believe his own eyes. Moreover, he also wanted so see how strong Ye Mo was compared to Ye Qing at this age.

“Kid, I am Wang Chao, the thousand-man captain of Ferocious Tiger Barracks. My strength is at Energy Shaping Ninth Realm. I shall spar with you using Chen Clan Spear Technique.” Wang Chao cupped his hands at Ye Mo while holding a seven feet tall spear.

Ye Mo did not look at Wang Chao. Rather, he swept his glance over the military formation before stopping at a middle-aged man.

“I am a spear user as well. But fighting you will not allow me to show the true meaning of the spear. Shall I spar with this general instead?” Ye Mo said as he pointed at the sole True Energy Realm thousand-man captain among the soldiers.

This was a great thousand-man captain, able to lead 1,000 soldiers while Wang Chao was only an intermediate thousand-man captain who could only lead 500 soldiers.

“What?” Wang Chao was first shocked before his shock transformed into fury. He stabbed out the spear in his hands. Immediately, a gold radiance erupted from the spear while a war song started ringing in the air. Ye Mo did not even spare the incoming spear a glance. He stood there motionless and just when the spear was about to hit him, he sent his dragon claws out and grabbed at the spearhead. Then he erupted in strength to instantly numb Wang Chao’s hands, causing him to let go of his spear.

“Thank you for the spar,” Ye Mo said with a smile before tossing the spear back at him.

The soldiers were all in disbelief when they saw this scene. In their army, only Chu Ge could reach such strength at such a young age.

“Wang Chao, stand down. He is a chief elect of the Qingyun League. You are not his match. Let Huo Yunqian deal with him,” Yanzhi said before glancing over at Ye Mo. This Ye Mo seemed always capable of shining brightly wherever he went.
