Ye Xingchen's performance had indeed shocked many disciples.
Elder Li, who was in charge of the competition, looked at Ye Xingchen with surprise.
This new disciple's strength and potential are not bad. He can be nurtured in the future. Elder Li thought.
The competition continued. After the fourth batch, the fifth batch, then the sixth batch.
Mo Yunxi was in the sixth batch. When she stood on the stage, her opponent had an ugly expression, but he still cupped his hands and said, "Senior Sister Mo, please enlighten me."
As he spoke, he circulated his True Qi and executed a Low-Grade Spiritual Martial Technique, throwing a punch at Mo Yunxi.
Mo Yunxi didn't move. She only released her aura and forced the disciple to admit defeat.
After Mo Yunxi won, the other disciples continued to fight.
As time passed, some disciples were eliminated, while others advanced to the next round.
During this period, Zhang Yuntao, Zhang Zilan, Nie Ming, Luo Lingxia, and the other disciples in the top ten of the Martial Ranking all fought.
Zhang Yuntao and Zhang Zilan's opponents admitted defeat.
Nie Ming and Luo Lingxia's opponents were defeated in one move.
Soon, the first round of the competition ended.
The second round of the competition required a new drawing of lots.
There were only fifty people in the second round.
Ye Xingchen went up the stage to draw his lot. He was number fifty-three.
The second round was the same as the first round. Ten disciples went up the stage at the same time to compete.
The first batch's battle didn't attract much attention, but the second batch's battle instantly attracted a lot of attention.
In the second batch, Mo Yunxi against Zhang Zilan.
The second and third on the Beauty Ranking fought. Putting aside their strength, their beauty alone was enough to attract the attention of the disciples.
"Mo Yunxi against Zhang Zilan. One of them is bound to lose. Doesn't that mean they won't be in the top ten?"
Someone asked doubtfully.
At this moment, someone beside the person explained, "After the competition, the defeated disciple will have a chance to challenge a disciple on the Martial Ranking. If he wins, he will replace the disciple on the Martial Ranking."
"I see. Thank you for your guidance." That person cupped his fists and expressed his gratitude.
On the stage, the two girls faced each other. Hostility could be seen in their eyes.
"Hehe, Mo Yunxi, I will let the Martial Hall's disciples know that I, Zhang Zilan, am not weaker than you." Zhang Zilan sneered.
"Really?"
Mo Yunxi laughed and said, "Zhang Zilan, as long as I am in the Martial Arts Hall, be it the Martial Roll or the Beauty Roll, you will always be ranked third."
Mo Yunxi purposely provoked Zhang Zilan and made her lose her rationality so that she could defeat her opponent.
She could feel that Zhang Zilan's cultivation had also broken through to the Heaven's Mandate realm.
Both of them were at the first level of True Fate, so the victor had yet to be determined.
Zhang Zilan was flustered and exasperated when she heard what Mo Yunxi said. She said, "Mo Yunxi, don't be complacent. I will scratch your face today, and we will see if the Martial Arts Hall disciples still like you."
Annoyed, she mobilized all the vital energy in her body, stirring up gusts of strong wind in the arena.
Zhang Zilan had the Fourth Grade Earth Grade Wind Bloodline, and the True Qi she cultivated was of the wind attribute.
The astral winds that she brought about were many times stronger than the martial techniques that Tao Jiang executed.
The astral winds were like blades that spun on the floor of the arena, causing the floor to emit cracking sounds. It was as if the arena could not withstand the power of the astral winds and was about to collapse at any moment.
Seeing this, Elder Li secretly praised in his heart. The top few disciples on the Martial Roll all had talents and superior bloodlines. He was afraid that in just a few years, they would surpass him.
He struck out a vital energy to activate the formation on the stage to prevent the battle between the disciples from affecting the people below the stage.
"Whirlwind Palm!"
Zhang Zilan's delicate body moved, swaying along with the wind. She unleashed a palm strike with gusts of astral winds towards Mo Yunxi's chest.
Mo Yunxi's expression revealed a trace of seriousness. She mobilized all the Kui Water True Qi in her body, and it turned into a river that appeared out of nowhere.
She had the Fourth Grade Earth Grade Kui Water Bloodline and cultivated the Kui Water True Qi.
Mo Yunxi formed a seal with both of her hands and formed a one-meter water shield in front of her chest to block Zhang Zilan's astral winds.
Then, she waved her right hand, and a stream of Kui Water True Qi rushed out, turning into a water dragon that rushed forward.
The water dragon was three meters long, and its entire body was crystal clear. It carried a powerful aura as it rushed down from the sky, wanting to strike Zhang Zilan down the stage.
"Hmph, slut, is that all you've got?"
Zhang Zilan was disdainful. She waved her hand, and an astral wind turned into a blade that slashed towards the water dragon.
The astral wind blade was extremely sharp, and it instantly shattered the water dragon.
Seeing this, Mo Yunxi stomped on the floor of the stage. Her delicate body moved, and she shot out like an arrow.
The water shield in front of her turned into three water swords that pierced towards Zhang Zilan.
Whoosh!
The water swords pierced through the air and emitted a whooshing sound. It was obvious that this attack was not weak.
Zhang Zilan was not afraid. She mobilized her vital energy, and waves of astral winds swept out, shattering the water swords. At the same time, she flew towards Mo Yunxi and struck her chest with her palm.
Zhang Zilan said: "Mo Yunxi, the mountain on your chest is not big. Let me help you and completely flatten it."
Mo Yunxi raised her hand, and a stream of Kui Water True Qi wrapped around her palm to meet the attack.
Mo Yunxi was not to be outdone: "Zhang Zilan, your mountain is very big, but what's the use? I'm tired just looking at it, so I'll help you collapse it a bit."
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The two girls exchanged dozens of blows. If it wasn't for the chest, then it was for the face. Each blow was ruthless, causing the spectators below the stage to be dazzled and frightened.
Ye Xingchen's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise. Although the strength of these two girls was not as good, they were not weak either. They both had the strength to fight above their level.
They could kill a second-level True Fate cultivator and fight against a third-level True Fate cultivator.
"If Mo Yunxi and Zhang Zilan's strength are comparable to a second-level True Fate cultivator, then Zhang Yuntao, as the number one on the Martial List, has a possibility of being comparable to a third-level True Fate cultivator." Ye Xingchen said.
Of course, he was not the slightest bit worried. With his strength, he could fight against an ordinary sixth-level True Fate cultivator.
In the Martial Hall, there were not many elders that could be his opponent.
"Cut!"
After the two girls fought for dozens of rounds, a winner was finally decided.
Mo Yunxi channeled her true qi and unleashed a mid-grade Spirit level Martial Technique. It turned into a huge energy sword that slashed towards Zhang Zilan.
Zhang Zilan's expression greatly changed. She quickly channeled all of her true qi to block, but she was still blown away by the huge energy sword.
"Bang!"
Zhang Zilan fell on top of the formation and fell down. The martial robe on her body had many cracks, revealing a large area of her snow white skin.
Zhang Zilan used her hand to cover her chest and coldly stared at Mo Yunxi: "This time, you won, but I will not admit defeat."
After Mo Yunxi's victory, the rest of the matches continued.
Zhang Yuntao and Luo Lingxia went up one after the other and cleanly defeated their opponents.
Ye Xingchen was among the last batch of disciples to ascend the arena.
"Ye Xingchen, I've been waiting for you." Nie Ming went up and said with a cold tone.
"It's you!"
Outside of Zhang Yuntao, Ye Xingchen had no interest in anyone else. Even Zhang Yuntao only wanted to see his martial technique in order to gather information on how to deal with Zhang Tianyang.
Nie Ming saw Ye Xingchen's nonchalant eyes and tone, and he immediately became angry.
He sneered: "Ye Xingchen, I will let you experience the power of a fifth-grade Earth level Profound Ice Vein."
