The instant Ye Beichen crashed into the wall of the arena, the entire Martial Battle Hall fell into a suffocating stillness. Moments ago it had been roaring with excitement, yet now it was as quiet as a frozen wasteland. The air seemed to solidify, and even the faintest sound would have been painfully clear.
For a heartbeat, no one spoke.
Then someone gasped.
"Oh my god."
"Ye Beichen actually lost?"
"Li Yun, with only first level Xiantian Realm cultivation, actually defeated Ye Beichen, who is at the sixth level of Xiantian Realm. He won the New Disciples Ranking competition and became the New Talent King!"
The silence shattered.
A wave of uproar swept through the hall like a storm breaking loose. Every disciple of the Martial Ascension Gate stared at the scene in disbelief, their eyes wide and their faces pale with shock.
