Xiaoqing raised her head and looked at the people standing on the staircase. Which one of them was easy to provoke?
Atop the staircase, Lu Yin stared at Xiaoqing. She had been able to control so many martial seals, and Bu Kong's movements had been much slower at the end. This should be related to her. Was it an innate gift?
Or was it a battle technique?
Regardless, Bu Kong's defeat left many unable to react.
Many of the major bets had also been affected by this battle, and many of them had simply disappeared with their money.
Many of the Sixth Mainland's cultivators were speechless. The Daosource Three Skies had been defeated, and a part of their status had been taken away.
Wu Taibai smiled at Xiaoqing. "Congratulations."
Xiaoqing thanked him and then looked at Lu Yin. "Help me out. Let me stay up there for a while."
Lu Yin laughed and looked at Zhiyi.
The Daosource Three Skies looked at Xiaoqing with malice. She, Bu Kong, and Wu Taibai were all members of the Daosource Three Skies, and this Sovereign Tournament was both a competition for opportunities and also a way for the Sixth Mainland to suppress the Fifth Mainland in the future. Bu Kong's strength was unquestionable, but he had been defeated by this woman in a sneak attack.
This woman had been able to defeat Bu Kong with a sneak attack, but her strength was insufficient against others.
This was going to be troublesome.
Even further away, beneath a staircase, Coquettish He and Invisible Light were fighting.
The two were both Ten Arbiters, and they were both familiar and unfamiliar with each other. Their battle attracted the attention of many.
Many people were even more curious about the battle between the Hundred Lineages and Drunkard.
It was a little strange.
Drunkard had used a single drop of wine to trap the Hundred Lineages.
The Hundred Lineages were parasites on a Progenitor's body, and they were invincible. Even Yao Xuan was wary of them because the Hundred Lineages could gnaw away at spiritual force.
Yao Xuan was absolutely confident that anyone would have a headache against the Hundred Lineages.
The Hundred Lineages not only had jaws that could gnaw away at anything, but they also had an unparalleled defense. In Yao Xuan's opinion, the Hundred Lineages' defenses were comparable to Wen Sansi's barrier.
Yao Xuan had fought the Hundred Lineages before the Sovereign Tournament, and it had been an extremely difficult fight. The main reason for that was because it was difficult to severely injure the Hundred Lineages. Even Yao Xuan was wary of this fingernail-sized beetle.
But now, the Hundred Lineages were trapped by a single drop of wine.
Drunkard's eyes were hazy as he giggled. The Hundred Lineages was crazily weaving through the drops of wine. Wherever it went, the drops of wine would appear. Gradually, the drops of wine formed a maze in the air. No matter how the Hundred Lineages tried to weave through it, it was useless.
Others found it novel, but those who could understand it were terrified.
This was the Arcane Creation Realm's star energy control. The Hundred Lineages seemed to be trapped within a drop of wine, but from its perspective, it was a world of its own. This was an incomparably terrifying scene, one that even Prime Clarity's expression changed.
This didn't mean that Wine Hao's strength had surpassed Shangqing's, but rather that his level of star energy control was unimaginable, and it didn't seem like something a youngster could achieve. In this aspect, Wine Hao completely suppressed everyone, including Shangqing.
With the Hundred Lineages' ability to devour everything, it would definitely be able to break through that drop of wine if given enough time. However, Wine Hao didn't give it that time. Under his careful guidance, the Hundred Lineages gradually descended the mountain until it reached the foot of the mountain. By the time the drop of wine disappeared, the Hundred Lineages had already been defeated.
Wine Hao hadn't defeated the Hundred Lineages. Instead, he had led it down the path of defeat. The Hundred Lineages was like a puppet that was controlled by Wine Hao.
Yao Xuan's expression turned cold. There was actually such a method? What a pity. If the Hundred Lineages hadn't met Wine Hao but someone else, even if their opponent had been Prime Clarity, it would have been able to put up a fight. At the very least, it wouldn't have lost so shamefully.
A parasite was a parasite. It had no brains.
Wine Hao was still drunk, and he swayed as he walked towards the stairway.
At this point, the only ones who had yet to emerge victorious were Invisible Light and Imperial Physician Feng He.
Invisible Light's domain bombarded Imperial Physician Feng He, but it had been weakened by Imperial Physician Feng He's Scripture of Eon Evolution. Just now, Invisible Light had used his Black Coffin Secret Technique, but it hadn't caused any damage to Imperial Physician Feng He.
Imperial Physician Feng He had used a move that ignored Fan Shun's strongest attack. The Omniscient Universe Evolution True Scripture had disregarded the Black Coffin Secret Art.
Secret arts were created by Progenitors. The Black Coffin Secret Art originated from the Sixth Mainland's Old Ancestor Hei. It was an extremely powerful killing secret art. However, such a secret art was ignored by the Omniscient Universe Evolution True Scripture.
Progenitor Realm experts were also divided into different levels. Old Ancestor Hei could only be considered as an Progenitor Realm expert of the Sixth Mainland. In terms of strength, he might not even be as strong as the current Three Progenitors. As for the Omniscient Universe Evolution True Scripture, it came from the Symbol Ancestor. He was a terrifying expert that history didn't dare to record. He was an unparalleled expert that attacked the Sixth Mainland, and the Sixth Mainland didn't dare to acknowledge his existence.
In the minds of many, the Symbol Ancestor was on par with Ancestor Chen. As for Old Ancestor Hei, he had died under Ancestor Chen.
The Omniscient Universe Evolution True Scripture disregarded the Black Coffin Secret Art. All of Invisible Light's methods were useless. On the other hand, Imperial Physician Feng He could create many offensive weapons and even strange treasures.
However, it was extremely difficult for Imperial Physician Feng He to win. Invisible Light's preemptive attacks made Imperial Physician Feng He unable to focus on anything. This was also the reason why the two had fought for such a long time without a result.
One was almost invincible due to the Omniscient Universe Evolution True Scripture, while the other's preemptive's preemptive attacks.
Imperial Physician Feng He tried to approach Invisible Light, but he was unable to do so.
During his battle with Fan Shun, Imperial Physician Feng He had revealed some of his abilities. Although no one was too clear about them, Invisible Light would not allow Imperial Physician Feng He to approach.
"You're really cautious," Imperial Physician Feng said. His long hair draped over his shoulders as he stared at Invisible Light.
Invisible Light had already opened his eyes, and his domain enveloped Mount Supreme. Above his head, an enormous forcefield took the form of his own image. He raised his hand and attacked.
Imperial Physician Feng He frowned. "It's useless." Ripples appeared in front of him, and the forcefield's attack was immediately weakened.
Invisible Light's domain was useless against Imperial Physician Feng He, but he did not give up and continued to attack. He wanted to exhaust Imperial Physician Feng He. Imperial Physician Feng He had been injured in his battle with Fan Shun, and he would not be able to gain an advantage in a battle of attrition.
Lu Yin and the rest were no longer watching the two battle, as they had a clear understanding of their strength.
Zhiyi was the first to reach the summit. In the distance, there was a giant statue. She looked up, not knowing who this statue would eventually transform into.
At this moment, Shangqing appeared in the distance and stood quietly in his original position. He also looked at the statue. Even with his temperament, he was somewhat impatient to have the statue transform into him.
Yao Xuan, Lu Yin, and the rest appeared one after another, all of them standing quietly in their original positions. At this moment, nine people had appeared at the summit.
There was only one person left. When Invisible Light and Imperial Physician Feng He decided their battle, the top ten would be determined.
There was no cover at the summit, and they could attack anyone they wanted. This was different from the previous battles, as this meant that the top ten battles could be one-on-one or a chaotic battle.
There was a whoosh, and a huge barrel of wine was thrown at Lu Yin.
Lu Yin caught it, and the drunkard grinned. "Drink."
Lu Yin was amused. "You're still drinking at a time like this? You're one of the top ten in the Supreme Competition."
The drunkard did not mind and tilted his head back to drink.
Yao Xuan smiled. "It's not bad to be drunk. It won't hurt."
The drunkard put down the barrel and looked at Yao Xuan with a smile. "Little brother, you're the one who sees things clearly. What, do you also have a past that you can't let go of?"
Yao Xuan frowned. This woman had misunderstood. He had meant that being beaten up would not hurt. Why was he always misunderstood?
Wu Taibai looked at Lu Yin. "Brother Lu, how does the Thirteenth Sword feel?"
Lu Yin shrugged. "I forgot."
"It's a pity that that person can't borrow the Thirteenth Sword," Wu Taibai said regretfully.
Lu Yin smiled. "You might be able to feel it."
Wu Taibai was stunned. "Is that so?"
"Deafmute Bro, do you want to fight for first place? I can help you." Xiaoqing smiled brilliantly as she looked at Lu Yin.
When she said this, a few people looked over. Zhiyi frowned and stared coldly at Xiaoqing. "No one will think you're mute if you don't speak."
Xiaoqing provoked, "What, you're not convinced?
The Daosource Three Skies are nothing special. "
Zhiyi was furious.
Xiaoqing turned back to Wu Taibai. "Mr. Bai, I'm not targeting you. I can't beat you."
Wu Taibai smiled. "It doesn't matter. The Daosource Three Skies have to be fought to get to the top. If you lose, then go down."
Lu Yin looked at Xia Jiuyou. "How many clones did you fuse with?"
The others looked over when they heard Lu Yin's question.
Xia Jiuyou calmly replied, "It's none of your business."
Lu Yin asked, "Is Xia Luo the only one left?"
Xia Jiuyou looked at Lu Yin. "Xia Luo and you were just classmates for a short period of time. The real reason you're stopping me from fusing with him is because you're afraid of the Nine Clones Combine."
Shangqing's voice rang out from the distance. "I really hope that the Nine Clones Combine so that I can witness Progenitor Chen's invincible battle technique. Unfortunately, the difference between you and Progenitor Chen is too great."
Xia Jiuyou's gaze turned cold. "It's enough to deal with you."
"Since you're so confident, then the Nine Clones Combine is indeed powerful. How about we eliminate this guy first?" Xiaoqing smiled brilliantly.
Xia Jiuyou stared at her, almost unable to resist stabbing her. She was clearly trying to drive a wedge between them.
Lu Yin agreed. "I agree. The Nine Clones Combine is Progenitor Chen's invincible battle technique. Who knows what special abilities the Nine Clones Combine will have? Don't let this guy steal first place."
"Leave him to me," Shangqing said calmly.
Xiaoqing pouted. "You're the one who should be surrounded the most."
Yao Xuan kept a close eye on Lu Yin, as he would not forget the State Tutor's mission.
Lu Yin was also on guard against Yao Xuan, as this guy would definitely make a move against him.
Amidst everyone's conversation, the result of the battle between Obscurer and Imperial Physician Fu He was finally decided.
Imperial Physician Fu He had lost in the end, as Fan Shun had injured her greatly. She had not been able to outlast Obscurer.
Obscurer ascended the staircase step by step and arrived at the peak. At this point, the top ten had been revealed: Obscurer, Wang Yi, Zhiyi, Drunkard, Shangqing, Lu Yin, Yao Xuan, Xia Jiuyou, Wu Taibai, and Xiaoqing. Four of the predicted top ten had been defeated: Bu Kong, Yuhua Mavis, Hundred Lineages, and Qiu Shi.
It was already quite good that a single list could accurately predict six of the top ten.
The Innerverse was more excited, as three of the top ten were from the Ten Arbiters. However, only two from the Neoverse had made it into the top ten. The Sixth Mainland's rumored invincible Daosource Three Skies only had two, the Astral Beast Domain had one, and the Technocracy had one as well.
All in all, the Innerverse's Ten Arbiters had the same number of people as the Sixth Mainland, so how could they not be excited?
The Ten Arbiters represented the Innerverse.
This was only because four of the Ten Arbiters had lost in the previous round. Otherwise, even more people would have made it into the top ten.
