Almost at the instant Mountain God Yi Xun shouted 'begin,' Ye Zhen and Yuann Yinying moved simultaneously.
However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Ye Zhen did not choose to evade or employ various defensive measures at the start of the battle.
The first reaction of Ye Zhen was—attack!
The best defense is a good offense!
A purple flame-enshrouded Xuan Fire Drill, formed from Heavenly Thunder Spirit Fire with flickering Thunder Light inside, screeched as it blasted towards Yuann Yinying, its speed incredibly fast.
In terms of speed, it was even slightly faster than Yuann Yinying's move.
The reason Ye Zhen's speed surpassed Yuann Yinying was mainly because Ye Zhen had preemptively gathered his power even before Yi Xun announced the start, giving him a slight advantage.
This Xuan Fire Drill of Ye Zhen exuded an extremely formidable aura, an aura that even made Yuann Yinying's expression change.
