"Boom!"
Yuwen Zhi's palm struck out, a terrifying wave of energy swept out, destroying everything in its path. An Yuan Vein expert's attack was extraordinary, definitely not something a Xiantian realm cultivator could withstand.
"Peng!"
Li Mubai, who was standing right beside Ye Qing, swiftly struck out with a palm strike. His palm force was powerful, colliding with Yuwen Zhi's palm strike!
Both of them were Sect Leaders with similar strength. After exchanging one move, both of them took a step back with a solemn expression on their faces.
"Yuwen Zhi, you're a dignified Sect Leader, attacking a junior, isn't that too shameful?"
Li Mubai's face was gloomy. Ye Qing was Duanren Sect's hope, how could he agree to Yuwen Zhi wanting to deal with Ye Qing?
"Yuwen Zhi, if you dare to attack again, I guarantee you won't live past tomorrow!"
Murong Zhi's cold voice sounded, guarding Ye Qing's side, loyally protecting his Master!
As Duanren Sect's Grand Elder, his strength was not much weaker than Yuwen Zhi's.
"Junior, I'll let it go this time, but be more careful in the future!"
Yuwen Zhi sneered, still threatening. He didn't care about bullying the weak. If it weren't for Murong Zhi and Li Mubai, he would've killed Ye Qing just now.
"Old dog, what are you being so arrogant for?
If you have the guts, do you really think I'm afraid of you? "
Ye Qing wasn't afraid in the slightest. What Sect Leader? If he really pissed him off, he'd beat him to death with a stick!
"You!"
Yuwen Zhi snorted, not bothering with Ye Qing any further. With Duanren Sect's experts protecting him, he couldn't touch Ye Qing.
However, the Three Sects Grand Competition was about to begin. He had already instructed the Azure Sea Sect's geniuses to kill Ye Qing during the competition to raise the Azure Sea Sect's prestige.
"Enough, just an ignorant junior, why bother with him? I think we should hurry up and start the Three Sects Grand Competition, my time is precious."
The Zhao Family's Seventh Elder spoke, not even sparing a glance at Ye Qing. In his mind, Ye Qing was just an ignorant youth who didn't know the Zhao Family's strength, that was why he dared to speak like that.
The sect leaders of the three major sects did not dare to delay and hurriedly went to arrange the competition.
…
In the Martial Arts Practice Field, all the participants were gathered together. The first round of the Three Sect Tournament was about to begin.
Yuwen Zhi walked over and stood in the middle of the training field as the chief judge of the Three Sects Tournament.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the Northern Desert's Three Sects Grand Competition has officially begun. Now, we will begin the first elimination round. You will be eliminated if you die or leave the arena."
Yuwen Zhi said in a clear voice. His vigorous voice spread throughout the martial arts arena. All the contestants were excited.
There were more than 3,000 people gathered in the arena. They were all geniuses from the three sects.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a core disciple of the Cang Ming Sect attacked a beauty of the Immortal Goddess Sect beside him. The two of them started to fight.
A chaotic battle broke out. There were more than three thousand participants. If one wanted to advance, they had to eliminate the other participants around them.
Ye Qing stood in the crowd, not in a hurry. With his strength, he could be said to be invincible in the Xiantian realm. In his eyes, everyone in the arena was a weakling.
The three sects competed with each other, but killing was not allowed within the sect. At least, it was not allowed during the elimination round.
The Azure Sea Sect, Divine Moon Sect, and Duanren Sect all had strict rules. During the elimination round, they were only allowed to attack disciples from opposing sects, and were not allowed to kill each other. The purpose of this rule was to ensure that more disciples from their own sects would advance to the next round.
Ye Qing was surrounded by Duanren Sect's core disciples. Among them were Li Susu and Berserker. They were the Duanren Sect's representatives, and they surrounded Ye Qing on both sides.
Boom!
Loud explosions sounded in the arena. Geniuses from the Cang Ming Sect and Immortal Goddess Sect approached, scattering the Duanren Sect's group.
However, Ye Qing stood in the same spot. He was too lazy to make a move. The elimination round was not difficult for him at all. He could just let his little brother Berserker and maid Li Susu take action.
In the Cang Ming Sect's group, nine peerless geniuses gathered together. Their eyes were fixed on Ye Qing, emitting a cold killing intent.
Ye Qing's face sank as he felt the killing intent coming at him. He knew these nine Cang Ming Sect's disciples were up to no good.
Sure enough, in the next moment, the nine Cang Ming Sect's disciples joined forces and charged towards Ye Qing's position!
Behind these nine people, Cang Xuan Yu sneered. The corners of her mouth curved into a cold smile, as if she could already foresee Ye Qing's miserable end.
These nine Cang Ming Sect's disciples were all geniuses, known as the Nine Heavenly Kings. Their status in the Cang Ming Sect was very high, second only to Cang Xuan Yu and Zhang Jiuman.
The Nine Heavenly Kings' cultivation was originally at Xiantian Stage Eight, but in order to prepare for the Three Sects Grand Competition, Sect Master Yuwen Zhi ordered them to spend a large amount of cultivation resources. He even personally imbued the Nine Heavenly Kings with cultivation enlightenment, helping them break through to Xiantian Stage Nine!
Nine Xiantian Stage Nine geniuses joining forces was definitely a terrifying battle force. They were Yuwen Zhi's trump card. With the nine of them joining forces, they were invincible. Adding the Holy Son Cang Xuan Yu, they could cover the sky with one hand!
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, the Nine Heavenly Kings of the Azure Sea Sect rushed to the vicinity of Ye Qing. Those who stood in their way, without exception, were all sent flying. Some of them were still in the air and had already become corpses.
"Ye Qing, since you dared to kill Zhang Jiuman of the Cang Ming Sect, you're destined to die!"
"That's right, Senior Brother Cang doesn't even need to do anything, we can take care of you!"
"Ye Qing, die!"
The Nine Heavenly Kings roared furiously and executed their powerful techniques. Without exception, all of them were Mystic-ranked Martial Skills with shocking power.
"Not good!
Boss, the situation is not good. They are the Nine Heavenly Kings of the Cang Ming Sect. They are not to be trifled with! "The Berserker said anxiously.
"Master, you should hide for a while. I'll deal with them!" Li Susu shouted. Her jade-like hands fluttered in the air as she executed a set of palm techniques, taking the lead to meet the Nine Heavenly Kings.
Ye Qing's expression was leisurely. He didn't plan to make a move for the time being. When he was in the Duanren Sect, he had spent some time and effort to nurture the Berserker and Li Susu. He had helped them refine many precious dans, such as Pure Yang Void Pellet, Limitless Chaos Pellet, Nine Orifice Golden Pellet, and so on. All of them were Mystic-ranked dans with remarkable effects.
With Ye Qing's help, the Berserker and Li Susu had broken through to the Xiantian ninth stage. Their battle prowess had soared, and they were on a completely different level from before.
The Nine Heavenly Kings rushed over aggressively. Since the Berserker and Li Susu wanted to make a move, Ye Qing didn't stop them. It was a good opportunity to test their strength.
"Boom!"
In a split second, the Berserker and Li Susu made their move. They rushed towards the Nine Heavenly Kings. Terrifying Xiantian true qi erupted, forming a storm that wreaked havoc in the arena. Many people were affected by the shockwaves.
The Berserker and Li Susu's strength was very strong. It could be said that they were outstanding talents, and they weren't any weaker than the previous Zhang Jiuman.
However, the two of them were ultimately weak. Compared to the Nine Heavenly Kings, they were still lacking. After all, the other party had the advantage in numbers.
In a short battle, the Berserker and Li Susu could still hold on, but if the battle dragged on, the two of them would lose without a doubt.
Ye Qing stood behind the two of them, watching. For the time being, he didn't have any intention to make a move.
The Berserker and Li Susu still had some backbone. They didn't ask for help from Ye Qing. Instead, they fought to the death.
Five minutes passed, and the Nine Heavenly Kings' momentum was like a rainbow. On the other hand, the Berserker and Li Susu were like arrows at the end of their flight. They couldn't hold on much longer.
"Bo … Boss, save me!"
The Berserker's body was drenched in blood, and his injuries were severe. In the end, he still opened his mouth to ask for help. If he didn't ask for help now, he would really die!
