Two years ago, Shao Yunrong was chased by the golden-armored demon. Her mind was shaken and she finally broke through the shackles and ascended to the True Qi Realm.
She was a peerless sword cultivator who had comprehended sword intent. Thus, she was valued and nurtured by the Mingjian Villa.
At this moment, Shao Yunrong had opened 17 true acupoints and was at the second level of true qi. Her limpid eyes were filled with sword qi, as if she could produce a sword intent that could destroy the void at any time.
Her opponent was a wandering cultivator in his twenties. He was empty handed, skinny and ferocious. He had opened 26 true acupoints and was at the third level of true qi.
Shao Yunrong appeared very calm when facing an opponent whose cultivation was one level higher than hers. She held her sword horizontally in front of her chest.
Her slightly curly golden hair fluttered without any wind, giving off the feeling of an immortal descending to the mortal world.
"Girl, I won't have tender feelings for the fairer sex … Hahaha, lie down!
Bone Dragon Claw! "
The rogue cultivator of the Jianghu lashed out with his claw, and whirlpools appeared everywhere. His True Qi condensed into a claw that was several acres in size. It was bony, and it tore the air into pieces. There was a feeling of ripples for hundreds of miles and penetrating through mountains.
"Break!
Great Maha Demon Subduing Sword Art! "
Shao Yunrong did not move at all. Sword light burst out!
A door-sized sword qi crushed the air, rolling and boiling, directly crushing the ferocious bone claw.
"Pfft!"
The wandering cultivator was sent flying by the sword qi. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell heavily.
"Thanks for letting me win." Shao Yunrong was emotionless as she held her sword and left the arena.
It was clear that he still had the strength to spare.
"Yunrong is getting stronger." Xiao Han nodded secretly.
On the other side.
Huo Fan's opponent was a young talent from the only sect in a small country in the southern region.
Huo Fan's opponent was relatively weak. She raised her right hand and a green light seeped out of her palm.
In an instant, the green light expanded in the wind and instantly turned into a small mountain that was more than a hundred feet tall. It was verdant and towering, simple and imposing with great power.
It directly crushed the opponent's true qi into a giant wolf, forcing the opponent to admit defeat.
"Phew ~ ~ ~ ~" Huo Fan won the first round. She held her chest with her right hand and let out a long sigh.
"Hehehe … Friend, your name is Xiao Han, right?" Fatty Zhu laughed wretchedly in Xiao Han's ear.
"The matches of the other groups.
Up until now, there hasn't been much to see. It's just average, unless those seeded players appear. "
Xiao Han smiled and said nothing.
Fatty Zhu suddenly thumped his chest and stamped his feet.
"Why is Fatty's luck so bad? He just had to be assigned to this group of death.
Fatty must have already won one round.
Sigh … Don't fight against the seeded contestants of this group later … That's right, Brother Xiao, if you encounter Fatty, you have to be merciful and take care of Fatty. "
"Hahahaha …" Xiao Han could no longer hold it in and laughed out loud.
"Brother Zhu, how can I take care of him?
Could it be …
You want me to admit defeat? "
"That's not what I meant either." Fatty Zhu smiled in an extremely honest manner. "In short, Brother Xiao, don't kill me. This fatty still wants to live for a few more years."
"Go ahead.
Fatty.
Continue to pretend. "Mo Qingtong sneered.
"Fatty Zhu of the Blazing Sun Empire's Giant Sword Sect. If Qingtong remembers correctly, he should be the son of the current Giant Sword Sect's Sect Master.
Right?
Damn fatty! "
"Hehe … This … You even know this." Fatty Zhu laughed awkwardly.
At this moment, he suddenly pointed to the stage. "There's a good show to watch this round!
The supreme experts of the other groups have all gone up! "
After the battle between Huo Fan and Shao Yunrong.
In the new round of fierce battles, a few seeded contestants finally appeared!
Xiao Han's gaze focused.
He thought to himself, I have to carefully watch and study the battles of the seeded contestants.
Xiao Han first saw one of the arenas, the battle of the seeded contestant, Cheng Feng.
This was an instant kill.
Cheng Feng's opponent was also a powerful sect disciple who had reached the fourth level of true qi.
However, Cheng Feng immediately used his ultimate technique, the 'Great Devil Flame Palm Print'. A large area of space immediately darkened. The killing was intense, and in an instant, a deep pit the size of several acres was formed on the stage. His opponent was beaten into a meat patty.
This Cheng Feng was indeed worthy of being a rogue cultivator who loved to kill. In a single exchange, he killed a person and let out a heart-wrenching laughter that made everyone's hair stand on end.
Next was another seeded contestant, the Crown Prince of Lingshan Empire. His true qi directly turned into a dragon and crushed his opponent's attack, causing him to kneel and beg for mercy.
Tian Yuan of the Ocean Emperor Sect of the Ocean God Empire pointed a finger, and an endless ocean storm swept out, annihilating his opponent's tide-like attack in an instant. He had no choice but to admit defeat.
The most stunning was none other than Li Ziqi.
This Li Ziqi had only opened 24 true acupoints, and was only at the third level of true qi.
His opponent had opened 39 true acupoints, and was at the peak of the fourth level of true qi.
However, as soon as Li Ziqi went up the stage, his entire body's essence, qi, and spirit instantly rose, forming a starry sky above his head. He stepped on a planet and slowly rose into the sky. With a wave of his right hand, a ray of light that was far more beautiful than the mundane world pierced his opponent's throat at an indescribable speed. His opponent actually died without a single drop of blood.
It was a flying dagger!
Li Ziqi's dagger directly surpassed his cultivation level to instantly kill. It forcefully defied the heavens, extinguishing all life and cutting off everything, not giving his opponent any hope. It was a killing move that could not be matched in the heavens and earth.
The entire audience was silent as they watched Li Ziqi elegantly leave the stage.
Up until now, the most stunning person in the competition was none other than Li Ziqi. His limelight had overshadowed the other seeded contestants who had already appeared.
Even some of the seeded contestants in the group of death had expressions of fear and contemplation in their eyes. They seemed to be thinking about how they would block such an invulnerable flying dagger if it were them.
"This flying dagger is powerful," Xiao Han murmured.
"Heh …" Mo Qingtong smiled but did not say anything.
Fatty Zhu said.
"Brother Xiao, in fact, this Li Ziqi's flying dagger is too extreme. It focuses on killing in one strike, raising his essence, qi, spirit, and life potential to the peak.
If he can't kill in one strike, then he'll be in danger. "
"Oh?
It seems that Brother Zhu is quite insightful. "Xiao Han looked at Fatty Zhu.
"It's just so-so." Fatty Zhu laughed foolishly.
"If I were to meet this Li Ziqi, I would either attack him before he does, or I would defend to the death and dodge his first strike.
If it wasn't an arena, it would be even easier. I could just find a group of people to surround and attack him.
Hahahaha. "As he spoke, his silly laughter changed and became extremely wretched.
After a few rounds of competition, apart from the group of death.
The contestants of the other groups had all appeared on stage and their respective victors and defeats had been decided.
Apart from a few seeded contestants, there were also some young people with great potential who attracted the cheers of the audience.
Next, it was the turn of the group of death.
According to the rules, the matches of the other groups would be held together at the same time.
As for the matches of the group of death, they would be held one by one.
After all.
The contestants of the group of death were too valuable.
It was inevitable that the audience would miss those classic duels if they were to compete together.
"It's our turn!" Fatty Zhu's face was flushed and the fat on his face trembled.
Mo Qingtong still had that charming and cold look on her face as she played with the number plate in her hand with a smile.
As for the other people in the audience.
They turned their gazes to the seats of the group of death on the east platform.
They knew that the main event was about to begin.
The entire arena became very quiet.
Finally …
"The first round of the group of death.
Contestant number 25987, Beacon Fire Empire's Pure Cloud Sect disciple Xiao Han, versus contestant number 26002, Blazing Sun Empire's Xuan Heaven Sect disciple Jun Wuhuo.
Both parties, please enter arena number 1000. "
The number plate in Xiao Han's hand sent out a voice notification.
In the seats a few rows above Xiao Han, a man's number plate also sent out a voice notification.
He also sent out a voice notification. It was Xiao Han's opponent.
Blazing Sun Empire's Xuan Heaven Sect disciple Jun Wuhuo.
That person immediately stood up.
Xiao Han stood up and looked back. Jun Wuhuo was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old.
His temperament was like that of a demon king descending to the world. The purplish-red rusty gold robe on his body was spotless, with a long silver cloak draped over him and a three-inch wide belt around his waist.
It was studded with jewels.
His whole body was like a tide of true light, with 33 five-pointed star acupoints in his body.
He was a person at the fourth level of true qi.
"Kid, come on up.
I can't wait any longer! "Jun Wuhuo sneered. His figure turned into a stream of light and flashed directly into arena number 1000.
"Brother Xiao, you're really lucky to be the first to fight in the group of death.
Moreover, you didn't meet any seeded contestants. "Fatty Zhu smiled innocently.
He then said in a low voice.
"I've heard of this Jun Wuhuo before. He's one of the few geniuses among the younger generation of the Xuan Heaven Sect in the Blazing Sun Empire. He's very arrogant and cultivates the 'Nine Heavens Whirlwind Technique'. He's quite powerful.
Brother Xiao, be careful. "
"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Zhu."
Xiao Han also stood up, slightly stretched his body and directly flashed into arena number 1000.
At this time, in the Pure Cloud Sect's camp …
"Senior Brother Xiao Han is fighting!" The young woman who was at the true qi realm clenched her fists nervously.
"Senior Brother Xiao Han's first opponent is at the fourth level of true qi … It seems that his aura is very strong.
He's not a weakling! "
"Everyone, don't make a sound and watch carefully." Dongfang Qin said in a low voice.
…
…
…
The void viewing platform.
This was a temporary space that was very magical.
In this void viewing platform, there were hundreds of experts with blazing auras. Each of their eyes had terrifying runes flashing.
Every one of them was either a famous tycoon or a top-notch disciple of a sect.
Wu Bai, Xiao Mingchu, and the Heaven's Devil Old Man sat together.
"Eh?
Junior Brother Xiao Han is the first to fight in the group of death. "Xiao Mingchu was originally sitting lazily, but now he sat up straight.
"Heaven's Devil Old Man, look at my disciple's performance." Wu Bai smiled.
"En, this young man is not ordinary. This old man wants to take a closer look." The Heaven's Devil Old Man's beard glowed and his eyes were filled with demonic aura.
"This young man has sealed his aura very tightly. Hahaha, interesting."
At this time, the Great Sun Emperor opened his eyes. "Xiao Mingchu, our bet can take effect now."
"En?" Wu Bai's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.
"Sure.
Let's begin.
I bet that Junior Brother Xiao Han will become the Evil Hero. "Xiao Mingchu looked at the Great Sun Emperor.
"Then, what are we betting?"
"Hahahaha … Although Xiao Han had some fortuitous encounters, it is not enough for him to appear in the group of death.
Not to mention becoming the Evil Hero, he can't even get a place in the main competition!
My disciple, Huo Lie, is also in the group of death. If he encounters Xiao Han, he will be killed immediately!
Xiao Mingchu, listen carefully. Whoever loses will go and kill Demon Emperor Qing Lin!
With his Demon Emperor Crystal as the wager.
How about it!
Do you dare to bet?
Do you dare to kill Demon Emperor Qing Lin? "
"Heh, Great Sun Emperor, you dare to kill Demon Emperor Qing Lin?
I am afraid that you won't have the Demon Emperor Crystal to compensate me if you lose. "Xiao Mingchu smiled.
"Xiao Mingchu, you don't have to worry about this." The Dragon Bone Saint Blade beside the Great Sun Emperor said coldly.
"I'll bet. Why wouldn't I dare?
Let's bet Demon Emperor Qing Lin's Demon Emperor Crystal! "Xiao Mingchu laughed.
"Hmph!
Xiao Mingchu, don't be so confident. "The Dragon Bone Saint Blade sneered.
"Let's not talk about whether Xiao Han can become the Evil Hero. His opponent in the first round of the preliminaries, Jun Wuhuo, is not someone that Xiao Han can easily deal with!
He might even be killed by Jun Wuhuo! "
"Bullsh * t …" Xiao Mingchu stretched his body.
…
…
…
Arena Number 1000!
Xiao Han and his opponent, Jun Wuhuo, stood opposite each other.
Xiao Han's body was as calm as an ancient well. The power of his flesh shell and true meridians were sealed tightly. He was like an ordinary martial artist of the Physical Body Realm.
As for Jun Wu Huo, the true energy in his entire body was surging like a tidal wave. His 33 Pentagram True Acupoints were sparkling and translucent, and they were releasing hurricanes. One after another, huge torrents of water flowed around the arena, scraping the ground and leaving cracks on it.
"Xiao Han, don't try to be mysterious. Maybe you took some elixir to seal your qi. Who are you trying to fool?
It's useless. In the face of absolute strength, your tricks will only become a joke!
Lose! "Jun Wuhuo said sternly.
"Hmm … the first opponent is quite weak." Xiao Han smiled.
…
…
…
