“Zhang Zigu said that regardless of whether the young master agrees or not, these are gifts for the young master, as an apology for his past rudeness.”
Ye Qianzhi relayed the message as instructed by Zhang Zigu's subordinates.
Just then, her beautiful eyes sparkled, revealing a hint of surprise.
"The Mystic Water Spirit Pearl... it's actually the Mystic Water Spirit Pearl I've always wanted!"
The Mysterious Water Spirit Pearl is of great benefit to cultivators with water attributes. It is an extremely rare and priceless treasure in the Cloud Sky Continent, and is rarely seen on ordinary days.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Zigu went to great lengths to send so many precious items in order to protect his nickname.
"Okay, I understand. Just leave it there."
Zhang Yun did not want to accept Zhang Zigu's so-called good intentions.
But since Qianzhi likes it, let her be. As long as she's happy, that's all that matters.
"Alright, young master, I believe you will definitely defeat Zhang Zigu. Consider these as a small gift from you."
Ye Qianzhi was overjoyed, like a money-grubber, and unceremoniously scooped up everything in front of her, causing Zhang Yun to utter two black lines on his head.
This girl has probably been holding back in front of me for a long time.

Chapter 93 Martial Arts Arena, Heavenly Pride Platform
If we're talking about the highest-level battle arena in the Cloud Martial Sect, it has to be the Heavenly Pride Arena, which attracts a lot of attention every time it opens.
Only those who are listed on the list of prodigies are qualified to step onto the Prodigy Platform.
However, there is one exception.
Throughout history, there has never been a shortage of those who, though outside the list of prodigies, desire to use certain figures on the list as stepping stones to achieve instant success and rise to prominence.
However, looking at the history of Yunwu Sect and even the entire Yuntian Continent, very few people have been able to successfully fight and win, making a name for themselves.
Zhang Yun wants to become that kind of person.
Because of the vast difference in cultivation level, almost no one in the Yunwu Sect had high hopes for him.
Zhang Yun is so arrogant that he's practically stupid.
To the disciples of Yunwu Sect, challenging the prodigy Zhang Zigu was undoubtedly a suicidal act.
Besides his terrifying background, Zhang Zigu is also a powerful figure on the list of geniuses, renowned throughout the Yunwu Sect. He is a shining star, revered by many.
Zhang Yun's idea of defeating him was simply wishful thinking.
Today is his death day!
As the sun rose and the sky began to lighten, disciples from all the inner peaks of the Yunwu Sect began to gather in the direction of the fighting arena.
By noon, the arena was packed to capacity, with no seats available.
Vice Sect Master Luo Chen, along with the peak masters of each peak and some elders, arrived and took their places on the platform, waiting with the disciples for the appearance of today's main character.
"What if Zhang Yun pulls off a stunning upset and defeats Zhang Zigu today?"
Luo Chen stroked his beard and laughed loudly, seemingly quite optimistic about Zhang Yun in this battle.
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the peak masters all became strange.
Wuji Peak Master Yuan Feifan chuckled and said, "The Vice Sect Master is really joking. The winner is undoubtedly Zhang Zigu."
"We, the peak masters of each peak, know Zhang Zigu quite well. This little guy has exceptional talent and is extremely diligent in his cultivation. He is already a figure on the list of prodigies. If he were to fight against someone on the list of prodigies today, the outcome would be unpredictable."
"Although Zhang Yun is quite talented and has shown some promise in the sect, he is still far behind a prodigy like Zhang Zigu. There is no need for comparison."
Qi Zhibai, the peak master of Full Moon Peak, also spoke up. It wasn't that he didn't think highly of Zhang Yun, but rather that Zhang Zigu, whom he was facing, was too powerful, and there was no chance of him winning.
"It is said that a few days ago, Zhang Zigu's cultivation had already entered the eighth level of the Meridian Chakra Realm, and the ninth level of the Meridian Chakra Realm is just around the corner. As for Zhang Yun, he is probably still stuck in the Body Refinement Realm. There is a big difference between the two."
"I really don't know what's wrong with Zhang Yun, that he dared to make a life-or-death pact with Zhang Zigu. Isn't this just ridiculous?"
The peak master of Lingzhu Peak, Lu Wuyai, spoke with a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Hehe, I know that the peak masters also think highly of Zhang Yun. I'm sure they won't stand by and watch him die if it really comes down to it."
Luo Chen seemed to see through the little schemes of the peak masters and smiled leisurely.
"Hmph." Lu Wuyai snorted coldly and said, "Zhang Yun's talent is indeed good, but his character is not good. Even if we save him, it will be difficult for him to achieve great things in the future. Such a person is better off dead. He is not worth saving."
Lu Wuyai was known for his fiery temper, and since what he said wasn't wrong, the others didn't refute him.
Let's talk about it when that time comes.
At that very moment, a spirited young man in white suddenly appeared on the fighting field.
In the arena's stands, everyone's eyes immediately turned towards that direction.
However, the prodigy that the disciples were hoping for did not appear.
"Zhang Yun, he actually dared to come!"
Somewhat unexpectedly, Zhang Yun, who was not favored, arrived before Zhang Zigu.
"Hey, I don't know what Zhang Yun was thinking, being so fearless and eager to come and die."
