Beneath her mask, Tearful Lady's expression was calm, and her eyes were filled with determination. She raised her hand and slapped at Fukong as well.
Fukong's expression changed, and his palm changed direction to attack the void instead.
Tearful Lady did not use her secret technique at the last moment, and the two pulled apart.
"You want to fight me to the death?" Fukong looked at Tearful Lady with interest.
Tearful Lady's gaze turned cold. "So what?"
Bukong couldn't help but laugh. "Woman, you've forgotten that you're using a secret technique. Secret techniques can't be used indefinitely. How many times can your body withstand my attacks? If you used a secret technique to injure me this time, then the next attack will only be greater."
Tearful Lady fell silent, as this was the truth. Whether it was against Fukong or Xia Jiuyou, her weakness was too obvious, and she did not have any effective attack methods. Although Heartless Sorrow of Autumn was a battle technique that was very difficult to break, its attack power was not very strong.
As the Hall of Honor's second disciple, she had spent most of her energy on mastering her secret techniques. Because of this, she could easily surpass Shu Jing and all of the other elite geniuses in the Hall of Honor. However, once someone could withstand her secret technique, her advantage would vanish.
"It seems like you really think that you can use your secret technique to fight me. Your innate gift is not bad, and you have many secret techniques, as well as unbeatable battle techniques. If you're not up against me, then you'd be able to put up a fight against anyone. What a pity." Fukong sneered. "You won't have the chance to fight me with your secret technique. Do you know how Lockbreakers fight?
Especially Boundless Advanced Lockbreakers. "
Tearful Lady frowned and stared at Fukong.
Fukong's words were heard by many. Boundless Advanced Lockbreakers?
Most people did not know this, as Boundless Advanced Lockbreakers were too rare to encounter, especially those who could control sourceboxes and arrays.
"Lockbreakers have a great advantage over ordinary people, and that's their control over star energy. Star energy is a cultivator's weapon. Are you sure you can wield your own weapon?"
Fukong teased her, and the air began to stir. The dust on the ground began to move despite the lack of wind. This was not wind, but rather star energy. Fukong was controlling the star energy in the area.
Lei Nu's expression changed as the star energy within her body became chaotic. This had happened before, but this time, she didn't even have time to react. The star energy within her body exploded out, and she couldn't withstand the sudden change. She spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to one knee.
Everyone else could only see the shockwaves, which were visible to the naked eye.
The star energy within the Tearful Lady's body was completely expelled from her body.
Countless people were dumbfounded. How could this be?
In another arena, Wu Dan was shocked. There was actually someone from the Sixth Mainland who had such abnormal control over star energy, and it was not easy to achieve such a feat. Although star energy was the same type of energy, once it was absorbed and transformed into a person's unique strength, it would be different. A Boundless Advanced Lockbreaker could suppress another person's star energy, but it would not be easy to completely control another person's star energy.
This person's sensitivity towards star energy was terrifying, as he'd been able to figure out the characteristics of the tearful lady's star energy in such a short amount of time. Wait, that's the tearful lady, so she's not weak. No, how did she do it in such a short amount of time?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was amiss. If this person was really that terrifying, was there anyone in the Supreme Tournament who could be his opponent?
The Tear Lady was not weak, and even though she was not a Lockbreaker, her control over her own star energy was not weak.
He must have done something.
It wasn't just Wu Dan, as Qiu Shi, Xin Nu, and Lu Yin were all confused.
Lu Yin believed that his control over star energy was very strong, and he had mastered more than one sourcebox array.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
He could easily suppress an enemy's star energy, even if they were a powerhouse with a higher realm than him. However, dispersing the star energy within someone else's body was a completely different matter.
It was easy to defeat someone, but it was difficult to make someone submit willingly.
But Bu Kong had done it. How had he done it?
Outside of Mount Supreme, the older experts from the Fifth and Sixth Mainlands were all confused. There were powerful Lockbreakers among them, but it was not easy for them to achieve this unless the gap between them was too great.
No one understood how Bu Kong had done it, but he had instantly turned the tearful lady into an ordinary person.
Countless people looked at him with intense reverence.
In the second arena, the tearful lady was half-kneeling on the ground, fresh blood dripping down her mask. She had been completely suppressed by Bu Kong, and she had even been turned into an ordinary person.
Bu Kong's lips curled up, and he looked up at the screens. One by one, he saw dazed faces looking up. He did not need to guess to know that they were all looking up at him.
This was the feeling. He was one of the Daosource Three Skies, and not only was he the future sky of the Sixth Mainland, but he was also the future sky of the Fifth Mainland.
Who could turn an Enlighter, the second strongest person in the Hall of Honor, into an ordinary person?
He could, and he could do it with a wave of his hand. To these people, this was the power of a god!
Lu Yin quietly looked at Bu Kong. This guy was truly terrifying. Lu Yin had clearly seen that Bu Kong had broken through the tearful lady's Heartless Sorrow in just a few moves. Lu Yin, on the other hand, had spent quite some time thinking about it.
Bu Kong's battle talent was terrifying, and his ability to instantly disperse the star energy within someone else's body was also terrifying.
Lu Yin could not figure out how Bu Kong had done it, or why he had done it.
However, one thing was certain: the moment Bu Kong had turned the tearful lady into an ordinary person, he had become one of the favorites to win the Supreme Tournament.
This was the power of the Daosource Three Skies.
Bu Kong's battle with the tearful lady had been rather long, and the results of many of the battles had already been decided. For example, the Sixth Mainland's corpse picker had been defeated by Yao Xuan. This person was not weak and was second only to the Realmlings, but he had not been able to retaliate against Yao Xuan.
Cang Shi had also been defeated in the same arena as the corpse picker, and he had been instantly knocked out. He had not even been able to move.
Feng Shang had been defeated by Wu Dan. This senior was unwilling to accept this, but the difference between them was too great.
Liu Xiaoyun, Avery, Han Chong, and the others had all been defeated.
These people were not weak, and they were definitely elites in the entire universe. However, none of them had the ability to take another step forward in the Supreme Tournament.
Avery was ranked fourth on the Top 100 Rankings, and he was known as the Young War King. He had been predicted to be ranked very high in the Spirit Seal Flowzone's bets, but he had still been defeated here.
His defeat had caused several families in the Spirit Seal Flowzone to suffer, and the bets had collapsed.
The one who had defeated him was Xiao Bai, and it had been very easy.
The battle that had attracted everyone's attention was between Shu Jing and Wu Taibai.
Wu Taibai was also one of the Sixth Mainland's Daosource Three Skies.
This Daosource Three Skies rarely revealed his strength in front of others, and Lu Yin's deepest impression of him was the battle within the Daosource Sect's ruined furnace. This person had forced Nightking Zhenwu to use the Arrow Progenitor's battle technique, which had almost burned Lu Yin to death.
Of the Daosource Three Skies, this person was the only one who did not reveal his strength. Even so, he was still ranked seventh on the Top Ten Rankings because he was from one of the Daosource Three Skies.
Bu Kong had displayed his unparalleled strength, and everyone was curious about Wu Taibai's power level.
Shu Jing was the Hall of Honor's third technique.
(This chapter is not finished. Please turn the page.)
He had once fought on the Cosmic Sea's General Appointment Platform and had attacked Bu Kong. He was not weak, and even if he could not compare to Lei Nü, he was still one of the top contenders in the Supreme Tournament.
However, his battle with Wu Taibai was stifling. No matter what battle technique or innate gift he used, he could not even touch Wu Taibai. Wu Taibai seemed to be playing a game as he dodged Shu Jing's attacks by a hair's breadth each time. Shu Jing felt as if he was just a hair's breadth away from hitting Wu Taibai.
Lu Yin's face darkened as he watched such a stifling battle. This was a complete and utter suppression.
Unlike Bu Kong's suppression of Lei Nü, Wu Taibai was relying on his vision and battle experience. He did not use any earth-shattering power and merely dodged. This was the simplest form of dodging, but it forced Shu Jing to be helpless, and even the range of his own attacks was shrinking.
He had been toyed with by Wu Taibai.
Anyone who could become the Hall of Honor's third technique was naturally not weak, but at this moment, his battle felt like a child meeting an adult.
A straight line tore through the void and shot into the distance. Shu Jing retracted his hand, and Wu Taibai appeared beside him. Shu Jing could not see him attack, but Shu Jing's arm was naturally caught in his palm. "Let me experience this so-called Punishment Secret Technique."
Wu Taibai's feet tapped lightly, and his body rapidly retreated in a straight line. He was still holding onto a severed arm; Shu Jing's arm had been torn off.
Shu Jing's forehead dripped with sweat. "Punishment Secret Technique."
Wu Taibai's expression changed as an intense pain appeared in his right arm, as if his entire arm was about to be torn apart.
This was a Punishment Secret Technique that could perfectly reflect an enemy's attack.
However, the pain only lasted for a short while before it ended, because Shu Jing had collapsed.
He had not even been able to fully display his technique.
Wu Taibai tossed his arm away and suddenly looked up at the screen. He looked at Shangqing; only Progenitor Chen could bring him true passion in battle.
If Bu Kong's victory over Lei Nü had been shocking, then Wu Taibai's victory over Shu Jing had been strangely calm. It gave people the feeling that he should have won, even though he really should have won.
Lu Yin couldn't understand Wu Taibai. He couldn't understand his movement technique or battle technique, nor could he see it clearly.
In another corner, Wang Yi stared at Wu Taibai with a confused expression. Had he sensed wrongly?
This person had given him a familiar feeling. Wasn't he from the Sixth Mainland?
Why did he give off such a feeling?
That shouldn't be the case!
Outside Mount Supreme, Mu En's expression did not look too good.
The Hall of Honor's second and third disciples had both been defeated so miserably that it had benefited others, especially those from the Sixth Mainland.
Even though the first disciple, Shangqing, was still recognized as the only Sovereign on the surface, the other two disciples' defeats were also a form of humiliation.
Right, there was also Lu Yin.
Mu En looked at Lu Yin; this person was the Hall of Honor's fourth disciple.
If two of the Hall of Honor's disciples entered the top ten, and one of them was a Sovereign, then they would be able to wash away their humiliation.
Mu En immediately gave the order to spread the news that Lu Yin was the fourth disciple. He wanted to portray Lu Yin as someone who had been nurtured by the Hall of Honor, and not as the Great Eastern Alliance's Alliance Leader. That status was not worth mentioning.
Even though the process was incomprehensible, the results were as everyone had expected.
Shu Jing's defeat was within reason.
