Supreme Martial God of the City

"Young Master Mu, about that incident... I am really sorry." Ning Wei lifted her little head, shyly speaking, "I... I..."

Ye Tian looked at Ning Wei, at this moment she really resembled a pure white rabbit, smiling, "I should be the one to apologize."

"Alright, we're at Star Peak, you should head back now!"

"Stop calling me Young Master Mu from now on, my name is Mu Tian, the looks those disciples are giving could kill me multiple times over."

"Ah, alright alright..." Ning Wei quickly looked at the desolate Star Peak, her lips slightly parted, revealing her white teeth, "Mu Tian, is this really Star Peak?"

"Why is there no one here?"

"Ahem, no worries, a bit of peace and quiet is good."

"You should head back, it's your first day, there's a lot to learn."

Ye Tian awkwardly smiled, quickly urging Ning Wei to leave.

"Oh oh, then alright, if you need anything, come find me at Moon Peak."

Ning Wei thoughtfully nodded, then gave Ye Tian a bright smile before leaving.

...

Watching as Ning Wei left, Ye Tian put away his smile and said playfully, "Come out, no need to hide anymore."

"Ssshhh~~~"

The sound of rustling leaves came as five Heaven Rank Martial Artists emerged from the woods, some of whom Ye Tian recognized.

"Oh? It's you, so, have you sold the Second Order Spirit Artifact?" Ye Tian looked at the short and insidious man he had clashed with in the trading hall.

"Boy, I didn't expect you to be such an idiot, choosing Star Peak."

"That crippled woman will definitely drain you dry, hahaha!"

"Even if we don't make a move, you're dead for sure. It's better for you to hand over the points token and let us spend it for you."

The short insidious man, Xiong Wei, looked at Ye Tian mockingly like a cat playing with a mouse.

"Brother, this is the man from the trading hall, he's so weak."

"I've never seen anyone as foolish as you in choosing Star Peak for the Nine Heavens Star Technique!"

"Hahaha."

Xiong Wei's elder brother, Xiong Dali, a bully among the Outer Disciples, liked to team up with Xiong Wei to bully newcomers and steal points.

"Wait, what did you say about a crippled woman draining me dry??"

"Tell me more."

Hearing that the third disciple of Star Peak was not only a woman but also a cripple, Ye Tian asked curiously.

"Hehe, since you're about to die anyway, I might as well tell you."

"There's a breathtaking beauty living on Star Peak, as beautiful as a fairy."

"Unfortunately, she's a jinx. Initially, Star Peak wasn't this desolate, it was the foremost peak with at least a few disciples choosing it."

"Blame your Peak Master for bringing in that woman from who knows where. Within a year, any disciple trying to get close to her mysteriously died."

"Since then, no one dared to choose Star Peak. I can't believe an idiot like you still chose it, hahaha."

Xiong Wei stood with arms crossed, squinting his eyes, talking quickly with a hint of fear, but soon everyone was laughing, full of ridicule and disdain.

"Considering how obedient you are, you can leave."

Ye Tian didn't pay any mind to Xiong Wei's group's murderous looks, walking straight up the mountain.

"Newbie, you sure talk big. We're here to rob you of your points."

"Hand it over, and you'll be spared a beating."

Xiong Wei blocked Ye Tian's path while Xiong Dali and his gang surrounded him, their goal the five hundred points, since sect rules clearly prohibited mutual killing.

"Why bother?" Ye Tian shook his head, waved his sleeve, and a wave of invisible Spiritual Energy spread out.

In an instant, an overwhelming pressure emanated in all directions, making Xiong Dali and Xiong Wei feel as if an invisible hand was choking them!

"Boom~~~"

In the blink of an eye, their bodies flew out limply, landing heavily on the ground.

"If there's a next time, you'll die."

The sharp aura tearing at their skin caused intense pain, scaring them witless, trembling incessantly.

"Go, go, a master, definitely a master."

Xiong Dali was the first to scramble up, looking at the disappearing Ye Tian with fear, wishing he had more than two legs, fleeing quickly.

...

As Ye Tian continued upwards, the scenery grew increasingly beautiful, as if living in a painting.

Especially the heart of the vast expanse of lush green forest, where stood a beautiful palace, as gorgeous as a star, with a huge area and stunning environment, unique architecture rising up from the ground.

However, these buildings had all been abandoned, no people around, wild weeds reclaiming the land.

Ye Tian's Divine Sense swept out, finding traces of Xing Zhan Tian in the main hall, but it was empty now, only a few empty wine bottles on the table, likely out to find more wine.

Further exploration revealed an old, tightly shut room far to the left of the main hall, looking much more dilapidated than the other buildings, but with signs of life inside; this should be Star Peak's third person.

"Why is the door shut tight, not open?" Ye Tian scratched his head, murmuring, "Let's check it out."

About two minutes later, Ye Tian arrived in front of the small house, just as he was about to step forward, a blue Barrier unfolded.

With the slow extension of the blue Barrier, it was clear it resembled a blue, translucent rectangular space, completely enveloping the house.

"Kid, be cautious, this is the Star Barrier, an Ancient Array."

"How could such a grand array appear in this plane? Though weakened, it can still withstand ten strikes from Primordial Martial Realm experts."

"Is there some terrifying monster inside?"

At this moment, the ring on Ye Tian's hand projected Elder Hei's phantom, cautiously examining the blue Barrier, touching it, causing ripples like on a calm sea.

The azure Star Power continuously strengthened the Barrier, enhancing its defense.

"Star Barrier? I have a way, I'll use Space Law to slip in."

Ye Tian smiled slightly, his figure gradually becoming blurry, seemingly disappearing into the space.

"I'm in, good thing my strength is sufficient, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten through."

Ye Tian eagerly looked at the blue Barrier. Though not very interested in Arrays, acquiring this array would be useful to defend his apartment.

"Little Monkey, eat this, and hurry back!"

"Don't come here again, Xiaozi thanks you for your company, go now."

At this point, a melodious voice reached Ye Tian's ears.
