YM778.TV Chapter 81: Chapter 75: His Name is Ye Chen!
Because they were right beside Ye Chen, they had a clearer view!
At the moment Patriarch Ye released the Yin Yang Profound Bell, everyone had launched their pursuit simultaneously, yet Ye Chen was able to surge past everyone in an instant, soaring to a height of forty or fifty meters in the blink of an eye, even surpassing the white Yang Profound Bell shooting towards the sky!
Such speed, such movement technique, completely dumbfounded all the other participants from the three families!
Even the genuinely strong participants from the three families like Bai Xiaodie and Qian Ming, who had also been in pursuit of the Yang Profound Bell, were momentarily stunned.
The entire Thousand Feet Field, with over eight hundred participants in the "Bell Snatching" first round, even felt a strange sense of suspension for a moment.
A hundred black and white bells were flying chaotically in every direction, while the more than eight hundred young bell snatchers were all momentarily dumbfounded, only watching Ye Chen as he reached for the swiftly approaching white Yang Profound Bell!
And when Ye Chen caught three white Yang Profound Bells in one swoop, that moment of suspension turned into exclamations of astonishment, just like those of the outsiders watching the competition.
"My god."
"What kind of movement technique is this!"
"Who is that?"
A swell of discussion rose, sweeping across the entirety of the Thousand Feet Field in an instant, and amidst this shock, the participants had even forgotten to chase after the bells that were still speeding away!
Within the Bell Snatching participants, Bai Xiaodie was next to Ye Chen, chasing those swiftly flying Yang Profound Bells.
At this moment, the young girl who had been quiet and indifferent since entering the Martial Arts Plaza was now filled with disbelief, her large, bright eyes fixed on Ye Chen, with all her indifference vanishing into thin air.
She had never imagined that among the family, there would be a young man with a movement technique even stronger than hers!
Such a movement technique, even in her own sect, the sixth-grade great sect "Peach Blossom Valley," was rarely achievable by True Qi Realm disciples!
"He is..."
Bai Xiaodie looked towards Ye Chen, but could not remember the name of this youth.
The Ye, Bai, and Qian families had dominated Qingyang City for over a thousand years, with descendants spread far and wide. The younger generation was especially numerous, and except for a few familiar sisters, Bai Xiaodie, who had always been dedicated to her cultivation, wasn\'t familiar with the other young members at all.
Or rather, no one had ever managed to catch her attention.
Now, this young man who surpassed her had suddenly invoked a desire within Bai Xiaodie to get to know him!
She wanted to know which family this young man, who seemed about her age, belonged to, and what his name was -- how could he be so incredible!
"The tri-family competition really does hide some young talents with secret strengths!"
"Which family does he belong to? He is definitely not from our Qian Family. Could he be from the Bai Family, or possibly the Ye Family?"
At this moment, Qian Ming also felt a sense of crisis.
This unexpectedly powerful young man had become another person who commanded his attention besides Bai Xiaodie.
He aimed to win the tri-family competition, and there were hardly any among the young generation he took seriously.
He used to have only Bai Xiaodie on his mind, but now there was another!
Not only had Bai Xiaodie and Qian Ming failed to recognize Ye Chen, the vast majority of the participants from the three families in the competition were unfamiliar with Ye Chen.
"Who is this powerful young man, exactly?"
This question arose in the hearts of the majority.
It was very normal not to know Ye Chen, who had always been so unremarkable within his family.
Among the crowd, only a select few of about a dozen people recognized Ye Chen.
"Ye Chen!"
"That\'s Ye Chen!"
A tall-legged young girl who was following Bai Xiaodie, Qian Ming, and others in pursuit of the white Yang Profound Bells suddenly recognized Ye Chen.
This girl, whose long legs were straight and shapely, was a captivating figure at seventeen or eighteen years old - from the Ye Family, just like Ye Chen, and currently the highest in the True Qi Realm among the younger generation of the Ye Family, with the ninth level of True Qi, Ye Xue!
Ye Xue, according to the Ye Family\'s internal hierarchy, was Ye Chen\'s older cousin.
When she was younger, not much older than Ye Chen, Ye Xue would often play with him.
Later, once Ye Xue entered the seventh-grade sect "Huoli Sect" and left the family, her contact with Ye Chen reduced significantly.
When she heard about the incident involving Ye Chen\'s parents and the rumors that Ye Chen had provoked a Spirit Sea Realm expert, Ye Xue was also startled. She had hurried back to the family not only to participate in the tri-family competition but to see if she could assist Ye Chen in any way.
After learning from the Patriarch that Ye Chen and his parents had safely returned, Ye Xue had even gone specifically to visit Ye Chen\'s parents, but at the time Ye Chen was in the midst of his training and she did not see him.
What Ye Xue did not expect was that Ye Chen would now be so formidable, seizing everyone\'s attention as the frontrunner during the first round of the tri-family competition!
"No wonder Ye Chen has even provoked a Spirit Sea Realm powerhouse; his strength has become so formidable!"
As she watched the youth soaring above the crowd, Ye Xue murmured to herself.
In addition to Ye Xue, those youths who regularly trained with Ye Chen before he had joined Qingyun Sect also recognized him now.
"It\'s Ye Chen!"
"My God, Ye Chen has become so powerful?"
"Didn\'t he join the eighth-rank Qingyun Sect? How could he have improved so quickly?"
At this moment, the two people whose hearts were most tumultuous were Bai Xiaodong and Qian Yun.
Seeing Ye Chen grabbing three white Yang Profound Bells, they immediately remembered what he had said before the competition started.
Back then, when Ye Chen said he would try to help the two of them snatch the bells, they thought he was joking.
Even when Ye Chen said he would help them snatch the Yang Profound Bells, they wondered if he had gone mad to think of snatching one of the mere ten Yang Profound Bells available.
Now, with Ye Chen clasping three Yang Profound Bells in his hand, it was clear that in addition to keeping one for himself, he had also managed to grab two for them.
Ye Chen had directly fulfilled his earlier promise!
Not only did he help them snatch the bells, but he also snatched the most precious Yang Profound Bells!
"Ye Chen..."
"I can\'t believe Ye Chen really has such strength!"
"He wasn\'t bragging; he truly can help us snatch the bells!"
Amidst Bai Xiaodong and Qian Yun\'s murmurs, amidst the stunned silence of hundreds of youths from the three clans, amidst the shock of the strongest youths like Bai Xiaodie, Qian Ming, and Ye Xue from the three clans, and under the watchful eyes of countless spectators from the clans outside the arena.
Ye Chen, holding three white Yang Profound Bells, twisted his body and swooped downwards.
Under countless gazes, he flew directly towards Bai Xiaodong and Qian Yun.
"Xiaodong, Ah Yun, these two bells are for you."
Ye Chen stretched out his hand and pushed the two wildly struggling, flying white bells into their hands.
"He snatched three Yang Profound Bells, and the extra two were for helping others?"
"By the looks of it, did he plan to snatch three at once from the start?"
"Three Yang Profound Bells, out of only ten in total, and he was confident enough to snatch three all at once?!"
Ye Chen\'s actions once again astonished the many youths of the three clans who were watching him.
While they were still worried about whether they could snatch a bell, this youth was able to help others snatch bells, and not just any bells, but the most precious ones.
That\'s just too powerful!
These youths of the three clans wouldn\'t say anything about Ye Chen\'s actions; in the Barbaric Wilderness Continent, martial prowess is revered, and in the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, the martial spirit is especially strong.
Ye Chen, being so powerful, was also helping his comrades within the allowed rules.
Others could only admire him, wishing that they had such a powerful comrade to help them, just like Bai Xiaodong and Qian Yun!
Bai Xiaodong and Qian Yun, holding the Yang Profound Bells, were also flushed with excitement.
"Ye Chen, thank you!"
The two hadn\'t imagined that they would have the chance to hold a Yang Profound Bell in their hands.
Ye Chen!
So his name is Ye Chen!
The way Bai Xiaodong and Qian Yun addressed Ye Chen caught the attention of all the youths who were observing him, as they simultaneously turned to look at the youth standing beside Bai Xiaodong and Qian Yun.
"Ye Chen."
Bai Xiaodie, dressed in a bright yellow gown, softly recited the two characters.
"Ye Chen!"
Qian Ming, at the eleventh layer of True Qi Realm, mentioned this name with a grave expression.
"Ye Chen!"
"His name is Ye Chen!"
All the youths participating in the tri-clan competition instantly remembered that name, the name of the youth called Ye Chen!
