It was Ye Qingchen's first time fighting a Green Flame Blast Cloud Monkey, a Martial Emperor Realm beast. He quickly discovered that while the monkey's strength was comparable to a human at the second layer of the Martial Emperor Realm, its actual combat power was still slightly inferior to the Boulder Demon Ape King he had faced during the Inner Sect Disciple assessment.
Back then, Ye Qingchen had only been at the fourth layer of the Martial King Realm, yet he had managed to defeat the Boulder Demon Ape King. Now, he had reached the seventh layer of the Martial King Realm and had even mastered the use of nature's spiritual energy.
Therefore, after landing two successful strikes, Ye Qingchen naturally seized the opportunity. He engaged the Green Flame Blast Cloud Monkey in close combat, paying no mind to the rescued disciple's astonished expression.
