Challenging Gu Taiyi?
The moment these words were heard, everyone was stunned.
Some even suspected they were hallucinating.
Who was Gu Taiyi?
In the ancient martial arts world of Huaguo, if he dared to claim second place, no one would dare to claim first.
This was his status.
Now, a young man in his early twenties was saying he wanted to challenge him.
Either they were hallucinating, or the young man had gone mad.
"I... what did I just hear? Ye Ming said he wanted to challenge President Gu? Hahaha?"
"I must have misheard! No! I need to wash my face and sober up!"
"I... I think I heard it too! This..."
"He's crazy! Ye Ming must be crazy!"
"Challenging President Gu, what qualifications does Ye Ming have?"
"Truly arrogant! Utterly arrogant!"
"..."
...
Eastern Island Country.
Shenyin Mountain.
"Interesting! Truly interesting!"
In a thatched hut, a woman in a plain robe looked at the young man on the screen, a subtle curve at the corner of her lips.
Due to the dim light in the hut, her full appearance could not be seen. However, an aura of killing intent emanated from her, making her seem incredibly formidable.
Beside her, a long samurai sword could be vaguely seen. Even though the sword was still in its sheath, a chilling coldness could be felt from it.
It sent shivers down one's spine.
"It seems I should also step out of Shenyin Mountain and take a look!"
The woman stood up, took the long sword beside her, and held it horizontally in front of her.
Then!
*Clang!*
She only pulled the sword out halfway, and a blood-red sword energy instantly filled the thatched hut. The plain robe the woman wore was also dyed blood-red at that moment.
At this moment, she seemed like a female Asura walking in the world.
"Gu Taiyi! I wonder if you can still take one of my strikes now?"
...
Black Eagle Empire.
Special High Security Bureau.
At the round table meeting, after everyone heard the young man's declaration of challenge, they fell silent.
The people present were not ordinary individuals.
It was precisely because of this that they could see things that ordinary people could not.
For example, the feeling the young man gave them.
There were only two words: mysterious!
That's right, after observing the young man for so long, they were completely unable to see through him.
"Huaguo is worthy of the name Divine Land."
A senator sighed, "This young man is likely to bring about a change!"
He said this because they also had analysis of Ye Ming's information in their intelligence system.
They had noticed Ye Ming from the moment he first began teaching martial arts to the world.
In terms of intelligence gathering and analysis capabilities, the Special High Security Bureau was absolutely a top-tier organization in the world.
Therefore, if they were to publicize their conclusions, it would likely cause another earthquake.
"Someone from the Vatican has been here before!"
At this moment, a middle-aged man sitting at the head of the table spoke.
"The Vatican?"
Hearing this name, everyone present was shaken.
"Director! What are their instructions?" a senator asked nervously.
Instructions?
Hearing the senator's choice of words, one could tell the respect he had for the organization called "the Vatican."
"The envoy took all the intelligence we currently collected about the young man! And also said..." The middle-aged man took a deep breath at this point and said in a deep voice, "And also said that a Cardinal has already entered Huaguo and is preparing to personally meet the young man."
Cardinal!
Hearing this term, all the senators stood up, their faces filled with panic, as if they had thought of something terrible. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"The change! It has already begun!"
...
Returning to Nangong Qianyu's livestream, when Gu Taiyi heard Ye Ming say he wanted to challenge him, he was also a little stunned.
Beside him, the members of the association glared at Ye Ming with anger, all of them berating him:
"Kid! Who do you think you are! Want to challenge President Gu! Are you worthy?"
"Hmph! A mere brat, truly arrogant!"
"Kid! Let me tell you! Forget about you, even across the entire world, there are few who dare to utter such arrogant words!"
"Ridiculous! Truly ridiculous!"
...
Ye Ming naturally heard these taunts.
However, his retort was just a simple yet domineering sentence.
"Do you want to know how the Seven-Star Inspector you sent went mad?" Ye Ming looked at the crowd and sneered, "I can tell you!"
*Boom!*
The moment they heard this, everyone in the Ancient Martial Arts Association was struck by lightning, standing there dumbfounded.
After all, they had just been discussing how the Kaiyang Inspector had gone mad!
And now, from Ye Ming's tone, it seemed to hold the answer they were looking for.
"Finish what you have to say!"
Gu Taiyi's face darkened, shocked by Ye Ming's words.
"Alright! I can tell you!"
Ye Ming said with a light laugh, "If you accept my challenge, you will get the answer you desire!"
That's right!
Ye Ming wanted to force Gu Taiyi's hand.
Only if Gu Taiyi accepted his challenge could his plan begin to be implemented.
"Fine! As you wish, old man!"
Gu Taiyi suppressed his anger and said, "Three days later, at Tai Xuan Lake in the capital, I will fight you!"
For Gu Taiyi, who was a towering figure in the ancient martial arts world, being forced to accept a challenge from a junior was undoubtedly a great humiliation.
However, in order to know the reason for Kaiyang Inspector's madness, he could only agree.
"President Gu actually agreed, this..."
"By the way! What was that Seven-Star Inspector they mentioned earlier? What is that?"
"I seem to have heard of that. They are a group of very powerful figures within the Ancient Martial Arts Association, with very special status and formidable strength."
"I am a member of the Ancient Martial Arts Association! Let me tell you, beings like the Seven-Star Inspectors, each at least possesses Martial Emperor strength, terrifying to the extreme!"
"Martial... Martial Emperor! Damn! That's too scary!"
"But Ye Ming just said one of the Seven-Star Inspectors seemed to have gone mad, what's going on?"
"Yeah! The brother from before, do you know?"
"This... I'm just an ordinary member of the association, I..."
"Tch! I thought they were that powerful!"
"..."
Seeing that Gu Taiyi had accepted his challenge and even specified the time and place, it saved him some trouble.
"Good! Since President Gu has agreed, I will also tell you what you want to know!"
Saying this, Ye Ming's signature charming smile reappeared, "Listen carefully!"
Hmm?
For some reason, seeing this smile, Gu Taiyi suddenly had a bad premonition.
"The reason why the Seven-Star Inspector you sent went mad is..."
Hearing this, everyone's heart tightened.
"It's because his psychological resilience is too poor."
