Chapter 81: Perhaps You Might Also Have the Chance to Become Number One

"Six Paths Heavenly Fist?" Li Xun's expression was strange.

Why wasn't it the Six Paths Samsara Fist?

The difference between two words reflected the difference in grade.

But...

He did lack a close-quarters combat technique. This part of the Six Paths Heavenly Fist, although only of Middle-Grade Earth quality, was enough to make up for his shortcomings.

Moreover, Ye Han was emitting blue light, so he couldn't demand too much.

"Junior Brother Ye."

Li Xun chuckled lightly and said, "I've already read the technique in this stone."

"Is Senior Brother satisfied?" Ye Han asked hopefully.

Li Xun had taken care of him a lot in the past few months, and he had always hoped to repay Li Xun's kindness, but he had never had the chance.

After all, he couldn't always repay his debt with the techniques from his master.

At present, this black stone was the only thing he could offer.

Li Xun shook his head slightly.

Seeing this, Ye Han's heart sank for a moment.

Was the technique in the stone really that bad?

"As Junior Brother said, there is indeed a technique in the black stone, but it's of no great use to me. However, it's very suitable for Junior Brother at the moment." Li Xun smiled and said.

"Ah— This—"

Ye Han's expression changed slightly, and a hint of bitterness surged in his heart.

"Junior Brother, there's no need to be discouraged. There's still a long way to go. Maybe one day I'll need Junior Brother's help. I just hope that when that time comes, Junior Brother won't refuse." Li Xun comforted him.

Upon hearing this, Ye Han's spirits lifted. He said firmly, "Senior Brother, please rest assured. In the future, if Senior Brother gives any orders, even if it means going through fire and water, Junior Brother will never frown."

"With Junior Brother saying that, I can rest assured." Li Xun nodded in satisfaction.

It seemed that his previous efforts had paid off to some extent.

At least Ye Han had firmly stood by his side now. In the future, as long as Ye Han grew up, whoever dared to oppose him, Ye Han would definitely be the first to rush forward and crush them directly.

Thinking about having a protagonist as a little brother, he felt a little excited.

"Now that the stone has returned to its original owner, Junior Brother, go back and practice diligently. Perhaps you will shine brightly on the stage of tomorrow's competition." Li Xun placed the black stone back into Ye Han's hands and said confidently.

The secret technique recorded inside this stone is not a disposable item. As long as the stone remains, the secret technique inside will never disappear.

"Senior Brother, this... isn't appropriate," Ye Han spoke hesitantly, his expression extremely embarrassed. He had just given the stone to Li Xun, but now Li Xun was returning it.

"On what grounds is it inappropriate?" Li Xun raised an eyebrow, his voice carrying a hint of severity. "Just now, Junior Brother Ye has already given this stone to me, indicating that this stone is already mine."

"And now, as the Senior Brother, I am giving a token of goodwill to Junior Brother. Does Junior Brother not intend to accept it?"

"Junior Brother didn't mean that," Ye Han shook his head, wanting to say more. But Li Xun didn't give him the chance to speak.

"As long as it's not what Junior Brother meant, that's fine. It's getting late now, Junior Brother Ye should go back soon. You should practice the technique inside the stone as soon as possible."

"Tomorrow on the competition stage, the disciples of the other sects won't hold back."

"Especially the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect!"

With the last sentence, Li Xun's voice became quite serious, carrying a hint of warning.

He might not fear Ning Cheng and the others, but it didn't mean that Ye Han and the others shouldn't be afraid. If they weren't prepared and rashly faced the disciples of Beast Taming Sect, they could suffer greatly.

"Junior Brother understands," Ye Han looked at the black stone in his hand, nodding helplessly. He stood up, clasped his hands, and said, "Junior Brother takes his leave."

"Mm," Li Xun nodded.

Finally, he added.

"Remember to pass on my words to others, don't lose on the competition stage."

"Junior Brother remembers!" Ye Han nodded.

After leaving the door, Ye Han took a deep breath, looking at the black stone in his hand, feeling a mixture of emotions.

‘Perhaps in this world, only Master and Senior Brother Li Xun treat me like this.’

"A person like Li Xun is indeed rare in the world."

The old voice echoed slowly in Ye Han's mind, carrying a sigh. He had been very powerful during his lifetime and had met many people...

Having seen countless intrigues and schemes.

Suddenly seeing Li Xun, who treated people with sincerity, made him deeply moved.

If he had such a friend back then, how could he have ended up in his current situation?

"Senior Brother Li Xun helped me resist the pressure from Beast Taming Sect today and also saw that I needed this secret technique, so he returned it to me."

"No matter what, I must find a way to help Senior Brother Li Xun!" Ye Han thought firmly.

"That Li Xun is already at the mid-stage of the Profound Core Realm," the old voice said slowly.

This sentence, implied that with your cultivation at the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm, there is almost no possibility of helping a strong person at the mid-stage of the Profound Core Realm.

Senior Brother Li Xun not only has not encountered trouble at the moment.

Even if he did, it wouldn't be something that a mere late-stage Qi Refining Realm cultivator like you could solve.

"Master, if I remember correctly, in the grand competition before the beginning of the Elemental Phoenix Secret Realm, if one wins the first place, the Grand Zhou Imperial Dynasty will reward a high-grade Earth Ranked technique, right?" Ye Han seemed to have realized something, excitedly said.

"That's right," the old voice said.

The old man originally wanted to tell Ye Han that your main goal is just to get a qualification to enter the Elemental Phoenix Secret Realm, and forget about dreaming of getting the first place.

After all, for Ye Han, who is only at the late stage of the Qi Refining Realm, being able to enter the Elemental Phoenix Secret Realm is already a great fortune.

As for winning the first place among a group of Spirit Connection Realm experts, it is almost impossible. Even with his assistance, Ye Han has basically no hope.

There is a difference of a whole major realm. If there were only one opponent, it would be one thing.

But the problem is.

There is more than just one opponent; you should know that the Xuanyang Sect alone has dispatched thirty Spirit Connection Realm experts. Add in a dozen other sects, and that amounts to hundreds of Spirit Connection Realm powerhouses.

Among so many people, it's incredibly difficult for Ye Han to stand out, even more so than reaching the heavens.

But in the next moment...

The old man's spiritual sense swept out, also scanning the black stone in Ye Han's hand. He fell silent for a moment before continuing, "Perhaps, you also have a chance to seize the first place."

He didn't understand earlier why Li Xun returned the stone to Ye Han, but now he understood.

With the secret technique within this stone...

Ye Han truly had some hope of defeating other Spirit Connection Realm experts.
