Ye Xingyun's words instantly silenced the lively atmosphere in the great hall.
Many representatives from powerful factions looked at Ye Xingyun with bewildered expressions, as if looking at a fool.
"It's that Star King Body from the ancient Ye family. What is he trying to do?"
"Indeed, this is the ten-year-old banquet for the Young Lord of the Jun family. How dare he say such things?"
"I've heard that Ye Xingyun seems to have taken a liking to the precious daughter of the Jiang family..."
Many guests around were whispering discussions.
They didn't dare to speak carelessly about it.
After all, the Ye family was also a renowned ancient family with formidable foundations and countless years of heritage.
It was best for them not to get involved in this conflict.
The old servant beside Ye Xingyun's face also changed drastically upon hearing Ye Xingyun's words.
"Young Master, you mustn't make trouble..."
"Enough, Uncle Fu. I'm not causing trouble. I just got a bit excited seeing the Young Lord of the Jun family," Ye Xingyun directly interrupted the old servant's advice.
He could no longer bear to see the object of his affection looking at Jun Xiaoyao with such an infatuated expression.
"Well then, Young Lord Jun, may I have the honor?" Ye Xingyun said, suppressing the jealousy and anger in his heart, trying to speak in as calm a tone as possible.
He wasn't stupid. At the Jun family's banquet, if he truly spoke rudely and without restraint, that would be seeking death.
However, if it was just a friendly exchange and sparring, Ye Xingyun believed the Jun family wouldn't do anything to him.
Sure enough, hearing Ye Xingyun's words, although Jun Zhantian and others frowned slightly, they didn't say anything.
This wasn't because Ye Xingyun had the backing of the ancient Ye family, but because Jun Zhantian and others also wanted to know how much progress Jun Xiaoyao had made during his year of closed-door cultivation.
"You are...?" Jun Xiaoyao's expression remained calm.
"Ye Xingyun of the Ye family," Ye Xingyun said, looking directly at Jun Xiaoyao.
"Oh, so you're that Star King Body," Jun Xiaoyao realized.
He did have some understanding of the young geniuses from ancient families.
The most famous forbidden genius of the ancient Ye family should be that legendary reincarnation of the Sword Demon, Ye Guchen.
Wielding the Emperor-Slaying Sword, he was an unparalleled sword prodigy who swept through the younger generation of the Immortal Realm without an equal.
It was rumored that when fighting against geniuses of the same generation, he had never needed to make a second strike.
Because no one could withstand his first sword strike.
As for this Ye Xingyun, possessing the Star King Body was decent, but he couldn't be compared to Ye Guchen at all.
If it were Ye Guchen here, Jun Xiaoyao might have shown some interest.
As for this Ye Xingyun...
Jun Xiaoyao really couldn't be bothered with him.
"There's no need. This Jun's strength is utterly ordinary, there's no need for an exchange," Jun Xiaoyao shook his head, really too lazy to make a move against Ye Xingyun, casually making up a flimsy excuse.
Hearing Jun Xiaoyao's words, some of the bigwigs from various factions showed strange looks in their eyes.
To be honest, Jun Xiaoyao's entrance had indeed shocked them, with his profound aura and transcendent temperament, like an immortal descending to the mortal realm.
But now, facing Ye Xingyun's provocation, Jun Xiaoyao actually didn't make a move, instead saying his strength was utterly ordinary.
Could it really be so?
Was the Young Lord of the Jun family just all show and no substance?
Hearing these words, Jun Zhiangjian and others had looks of embarrassment.
What the hell do you mean "utterly ordinary"!
"If cousin Xiaoyao is utterly ordinary, then I might as well smack myself to death with a block of tofu," Jun Zhiangjian inwardly felt embarrassed.
However, Ye Xingyun didn't know Jun Xiaoyao's true strength.
The phenomena when Jun Xiaoyao broke through earlier could at most make Ye Xingyun take him a bit more seriously.
Now, seeing Jun Xiaoyao unwilling to make a move, Ye Xingyun felt anxious.
If Jun Xiaoyao didn't make a move, how could he show off in front of Jiang Luoli?
After thinking for a moment, Ye Xingyun spoke up: "Young Lord needn't be modest. If it's because your realm isn't high enough, this Ye can suppress his realm to the peak of the Divine Palace Realm to fight with you."
In Ye Xingyun's view, even if the ten-year-old Jun Xiaoyao was a prodigy, he would at most be at the Divine Palace Realm.
While Ye Xingyun himself, at sixteen or seventeen, was already an expert at the fifth level of the True Spirit Realm.
Hearing Ye Xingyun's words, everyone in the great hall turned their gazes towards Jun Xiaoyao.
If Jun Xiaoyao still didn't agree under these circumstances, it would inevitably invite criticism.
Jun Xiaoyao inwardly sighed.
He didn't want to slap faces, yet someone insisted on offering their face to be slapped.
He glanced at Jiang Luoli beside him, roughly understanding why Ye Xingyun was acting this way.
A beautiful woman brings trouble!
"Why are you so annoying? Why do you keep pestering Brother Xiaoyao?" Jiang Luoli, this little girl, was displeased.
She had wanted to chat properly with Jun Xiaoyao and develop their relationship.
But this Ye Xingyun was being stubborn and interfering.
"Luoli, I just wanted to..." Ye Xingyun's face turned pale, Jiang Luoli had even started calling him "Brother Xiaoyao".
Jiang Luoli impatiently said: "What do you want? If you hurt Brother Xiaoyao's face, can you compensate for it?"
"I..." Ye Xingyun choked, his face flushing red, almost unable to hold back from cursing.
Does being handsome mean you're above everyone else and can do whatever you want?
Ye Xingyun felt even more jealous in his heart.
Jun Xiaoyao was also speechless, Jiang Luoli could practically be the president of the looks association.
"Never mind, since you insist on sparring with this Young Lord, then make your move," Jun Xiaoyao said calmly, with one hand behind his back.
"Brother Xiaoyao, you..." Jiang Luoli hesitated.
She was also a bit worried that Jun Xiaoyao would be suppressed by Ye Xingyun.
"Tsk tsk, Luoli is already starting to worry about her future husband?" Jiang Shengyi beside her revealed her pearly white teeth and chuckled lightly.
"No way..." Jiang Luoli's pretty face flushed red.
Ye Xingyun's expression became solemn, eager to prove himself.
He suppressed his cultivation to the ninth level of the Divine Palace Realm.
Jun Xiaoyao calmly said: "You can make the first move, and there's no need to suppress your realm."
"No need," Ye Xingyun directly refused.
He knew that if he really did that, then Jun Xiaoyao would also have an excuse to explain away his defeat.
That way, it wouldn't achieve the effect of showing off and slapping faces, so how could he make Jiang Luoli look at him with new eyes?
"Sigh..." Jun Xiaoyao sighed.
He didn't say anything more, directly activating the Divine Elephant Subduing Prison Technique.
During this year of closed-door cultivation, Jun Xiaoyao had awakened another ten thousand elephant particles.
In other words, Jun Xiaoyao had now awakened a total of forty thousand elephant particles, which was equivalent to four hundred million catties of giant force!
What concept was four hundred million catties of giant force?
One palm could shatter ancient mountains and strike across the nine heavens and stars!
Boom!
Inside Jun Xiaoyao's body, golden sacred blood surged!
The surging golden blood essence gushed out from his body, vaguely forming the illusory image of an ancient divine elephant, suppressing all of heaven and earth!
Jun Xiaoyao simply pushed out one hand horizontally.
Like the hand of an ancient god, opening up new territories and breaking the earth, the strength of the waves was so strong that it made the void tremble, and the entire great hall let out a violent roar!
All the people who came to attend the banquet, whether young geniuses or older generation figures, couldn't help but stand up, their faces dumbfounded!
That terrifying force and pressure made many of the older generation feel a sense of fear and trepidation.
As for Ye Xingyun, he was now as if struck by lightning, his face changing drastically in shock!
