"Open to the heavens, cultivating myriad paths, weaving myriad paths. Our Yuanling Sect's Saint Heir once challenged all the Saint Heirs of the other major sects and defeated them directly."
"Next, you should have a proper duel with Yuan Lue, the Saint Heir of our Yuanling Sect, whether you win or lose, our Yuanling Sect will aid you in the matter of Earth Star."
"Alright!"
Wang Ye agreed immediately upon hearing this.
After all, Wang Ye previously had the idea of challenging the Saint Heirs of various sects to enhance his own strength. However, Wang Ye's rapid advancement in realm caused him to abandon his original plan.
Now, having just advanced to the Pinnacle of Harmony Realm, Wang Ye was unsure of his own level during combat. If he could spar with Yuan Lue at this time, it would be a significant improvement in his overall capacity.
Firstly, he would know the extent of his prowess in battle, and when met with enemies, Wang Ye would have a clearer understanding.
Secondly, fighting with Yuan Lue is akin to a philosophical discussion through battling. Wang Ye cultivates myriad paths, while Yuan Lue has always had the idea of opening to the heavens, which shows their paths have a level of congruence.
During the battle, it's a process of mutual learning.
"Good."
Seeing Wang Ye's agreement, Yuan Mou turned his gaze to Yuan Lue beside him and asked, "Yuan Lue, do you have any objections?"
"I have no objections."
Yuan Lue shook his head, his eyes looking at Wang Ye with eagerness.
"Moreover..."
Seeing Wang Ye and Yuan Lue both agree to the upcoming duel, Yuan Mou continued:
"I plan to notify all forces and sects about your duel and let them witness this fight."
No need for everyone to come.
After all, the Pinnacle of Harmony Realm is the pinnacle combat power in Spirit Star.
When Pinnacle of Harmony Realm cultivators battle, as long as they're on Spirit Star, they can witness Wang Ye and Yuan Lue's duel.
"I have no problem!"
This time, Wang Ye agreed even more decisively.
He cast a grateful glance at Yuan Mou, his previous vigilance towards Yuan Mou diminishing somewhat.
He understood Yuan Mou's intentions.
From now on, Yuan Mou was already assisting him.
Letting people observe his battle with Yuan Lue, the duel itself is one aspect; the other is allowing the spectators to perceive Wang Ye's formidable strength.
In such a scenario, even if some intended to invade Earth Star, they would be deterred by Wang Ye's prowess and refrain from acting.
"Alright, let's settle it that way!"
Seeing Wang Ye's decisive agreement, Yuan Mou also agreed decisively and began promoting the event.
Wang Ye and Yuan Mou were left in the Star Pavilion to begin philosophical discussions before the duel.
Even though there was an upcoming challenge, it didn't mean they were adversaries; mutual discussions and enhancing each other's realms and strength were what they should pursue.
After a round of discussions, Wang Ye and Yuan Lue felt as if they had met too late.
They shared some identical understandings regarding the Dao, and during the process, each could lay foundations on areas less understood by the other.
Of course, they weren't entirely the same.
So if someone witnessed Wang Ye and Yuan Lue's discussion, they'd likely think the two were schizophrenic.
One moment, they were comrades in arms, and the next, they were quarreling, eager to start a brawl.
And outside.
Upon learning that Wang Ye was from Earth Star, came to Yuanling Sect seeking help, and Yuanling Sect requested him to fight Yuan Lue, many major forces on Spirit Star were stunned.
Several sects, already prepared to invade Earth Star, paused and decided to observe Wang Ye and Yuan Lue's duel first.
Meanwhile, some prodigies and sect leaders discussed the outcome of Wang Ye and Yuan Lue's impending battle.
"In this battle, Yuan Lue will surely win. After all, Yuan Lue has genuinely elevated his strength. During his quest to understand the Force of Myriad Dao, Yuan Lue even defeated Saint Heirs from other sects."
"Wang Ye? The current Wang Ye probably only possesses the realm, unsure of how to wield his own power. It took him just half a year to break through from a Seventh Grade Cultivator to Pinnacle of Harmony Realm, and during those six months, his battles were probably few."
"Needless to say, there are few Pinnacle of Harmony Realm cultivators in Spirit Star. They are considered the mightiest presently. However, even within the Pinnacles, power isn't uniform; there are strong and weak. Wang Ye, being recently promoted, can't possibly be a match for Yuan Lue."
In these discussions, it was a consensus that Wang Ye would certainly fail against Yuan Lue.
The speculation is quite reasonable.
After all, how long has Yuan Lue been at the Pinnacle of Harmony Realm?
How long has Wang Ye been at the Pinnacle of Harmony Realm?
...
The next day.
These top-tier experts do not require sleep, so upon hearing about Wang Ye and Yuan Lue's duel, they remained awake, waiting.
As dawn barely broke.
With the first light.
Wang Ye and Yuan Lue proceeded directly to the top of Iron Steel Ridge.
Iron Steel Ridge, a sprawling primordial forest.
This primordial forest covers a vast area and is uninhabited.
The location for Wang Ye and Yuan Lue's duel was chosen to be Iron Steel Ridge.
At the Pinnacle of Harmony Realm, the destruction caused during combat is extensive, and nothing can prevent the devastation of Wang Ye and Yuan Lue when they clash.
Thus, they can only choose a sparsely populated location for their fight.
No referees.
Only Wang Ye and Yuan Lue.
Everyone else was a spectator.
Waiting for Wang Ye and Yuan Lue to begin their duel and determine the victor.
