Yan Chutian immediately recognized Qiu Yu's identity when he felt the familiar aura and the unique sense of familiarity. Now that he thought about it, it was no wonder that he could vaguely sense the change in Mu Wan's aura even when he was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
It was probably at that moment that Qiu Yu's consciousness finally broke through Mu Wan's suppression and regained control of this body.
While Yan Chutian was still in a daze, Qiu Yu suddenly lowered her delicate body and looked down at Yan Chutian. Her rosy lips opened slightly and a trace of hidden danger slowly came out.
"What, you don't want me to come out?"
"No, no … of course not!"
Hearing this, Yan Chutian repeatedly shook his head and denied it. He knew very well the consequences of offending Qiu Yu. Without a doubt, even if he dared to hesitate for a moment, Qiu Yu's unruly temperament would immediately flip out.
Seeing that he answered very quickly and was in a cross-legged state to seek a breakthrough, Qiu Yu didn't do anything in the end and only said softly, "That's good."
Saying this, she slightly raised her beautiful eyes and looked in the direction of the Northern Region, where the morale was somewhat low. Finally, her gaze locked onto Shilong, who was going to fight with Yan Chutian in the fifth round. She said indifferently, "How is it? Are you confident in fighting him? If you really can't, I may be able to help you secretly. "
Although Qiu Yu and Mu Wan were one body, to be exact, she was much more powerful than Mu Wan. The things that she knew and could use were countless more. Even when her consciousness was constantly recovering, Mu Wan could still share some of her memories. However, compared to what she truly grasped, it was just a drop in the ocean.
Therefore, Qiu Yu dared to say that she would secretly help Yan Chutian in such an occasion because she was very confident in her own ability. Even if the Elders who were watching were stronger than her, she could still deceive them.
But before she could finish her sentence, she saw Yan Chutian shake his head. Yan Chutian still had the same thought in his mind. Letting Qiu Yu use those abilities without restraint was really too much of a burden on Mu Wan's body.
Furthermore, he was certain that there were lackeys from the Heaven Realm hiding in the Central Plains. If Mu Wan used these abilities and was discovered, then the two of them would be in an extremely dangerous situation.
After all, no matter what, the two of them were only at the Primal Core Realm.
However, even though that was the case, Yan Chutian wouldn't say it out loud. Instead, he said, "There's no need. My Senior Sister Xiaoyu doesn't need to act against a mere northern region Holy Son. My strength is more than enough!"
Yan Chutian's sudden intimate words made Qiu Yu's face turn red. After a moment of bashfulness, she said with a snort, "Hmph, then be careful. Don't make a fool of yourself when the time comes!"
"Haha …"
Yan Chutian also laughed softly. Then, he closed his eyes again. He was still accumulating spiritual energy for a breakthrough, and he was almost at the edge of the boundary. He just didn't know if he could make it in time for the fifth round of the competition.
At the same time, the commotion caused by Qiu Yu's victory continued to spread among the crowd. No one would have thought that the southern region would win this round again. As a result, the southern region was in the lead. Two Holy Sons had advanced to the next round, while the northern region only had one.
"How can this be? I'm a proud northern region Holy Son. Don't tell me that I can't suppress the southern region, which has been struggling at death's door?!"
"The result is definitely not like this. This time, the southern region definitely got lucky. The remaining two rounds will definitely be won by our northern region Holy Son. He will defeat the other two in the next round tomorrow!"
"That's right. How can the northern region Holy Son lose to someone from the southern region!"
The southern region Holy Son's side was enraged. None of the southern region disciples had expected that Qiu Yu would actually defeat the northern region Holy Son. As a result, as long as the southern region Holy Son won one more round in the next two rounds, they would be able to suppress the northern region in terms of points!
As a result, the fourth round was extremely eye-catching. Even the elders of the northern and southern region, as well as Zhu Yun, fixed their gazes on the two people who were about to enter the arena.
The southern region's opponent was the black-robed Holy Son, Shen Kong. Very little news about him spread to the outside world, and every time he did, it was not sensationalism. Instead, it was true battle results. As a result, he was able to secure his position as the top Holy Son early on.
Shen Kong's opponent was a pale-faced, skeleton-like man. However, not a single disciple dared to mock him because he was the number one Holy Son of the northern region, Hong Gu, just like Luo Xue.
The reason why Hong Gu was able to become the number one Holy Son in the fiercely competitive northern region was because even though his cultivation was only at the fourth level of Elixir, it was rumored that he had already begun to condense his third spiritual rune. Moreover, he was the only one in the entire Heaven's Secrets Sect.
"Holy Son Hong Gu, defeat that southern region disciple!"
"Go for it, Holy Son Hong Gu!"
"…"
As soon as Hong Gu entered the arena, incomparably enthusiastic cheers rang out from the northern region's side. Even the elders of the northern region who had locked their gazes on him revealed looks of satisfaction in their eyes.
This was because they really could not find fault with Hong Gu. At the same time, they also believed that there would be no suspense in this battle. This was because ever since he had entered the sect, he had never lost a battle.
Just from this point alone, he was somewhat similar to Yan Chutian.
After the cheers subsided, Hong Gu looked at Shen Kong with his similarly pale eyes and said something that caused an uproar among the southern region disciples.
"You … are no match for me."
As soon as these words were spoken, even though the southern region disciples agreed that Hong Gu was terrifying, they still let out angry roars. No matter how strong you are, you have not even started the battle to come to a conclusion. You are looking down on us, the Holy Son of the southern region.
While the southern region disciples were in an uproar, Shen Kong's expression was calm. He slowly removed his black robe and looked at Hong Gu with a pair of extremely indifferent eyes. He also slowly said, "Perhaps I am not your match, but in the end, we still have to fight to determine the victor."
Hearing this, Hong Gu did not say anything. He only moved his body slightly and a dense white aura rapidly revolved around his body, wrapping around his body. Faintly, there seemed to be a ghost-like wail and wolf-like howl that spread out, causing people to tremble in fear.
When Hong Gu moved, Shen Kong's expression also became solemn. It could even be said that he became serious. Against Hong Gu, even he did not have the slightest confidence that he could win.
An intense battle quickly unfolded. After an unknown period of time, the battle gradually came to an end. When the battle ended, Hong Gu's majestic body did not move, but Shen Kong's stable body suddenly trembled. Following this, a dense white handprint slowly appeared on his back and gradually disappeared.
This situation had already announced the result. Hong Gu had defeated Shen Kong!
"You are no match for me …"
Hong Gu's cold voice rang out once again. It was as if there was not the slightest bit of emotion in it as if he was only stating a fact. After defeating Shen Kong and saying such words, the commotion caused by Hong Gu was only shock. There was no more uproar.
Not to mention the excited and cheering North Region disciples, even the many South Region disciples were shocked. They had no choice but to admit that Hong Gu was powerful from the bottom of their hearts. Hong Gu was so powerful. If Qiu Yu or Luo Xue were to fight against him, what chance would they have of winning?
Looking at Hong Gu who had won from the corner of her eyes, Qiu Yu's pretty face became slightly solemn. Hong Gu's strength was probably the strongest in the entire Tian Ji Sect. Even Luo Xue might not be a match for him. Even if she were to fight against him now, if she did not use all her strength, she could not guarantee that she would win.
However, now was not the time to worry about this. The fourth battle was over and the next battle should belong to Yan Chutian. At this time, Yan Chutian was still sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed.
Therefore, she could only try her best not to disturb Yan Chutian's state. She whispered to him, "Yan Chutian, the fifth battle is about to begin …"
Before Qiu Yu finished speaking, Yan Chutian opened his eyes. At this time, he had yet to break through. His cultivation seemed to be stuck at the critical point of breaking through. This caused Yan Chutian to sigh helplessly. It seemed that even the heavens did not want him to fight peacefully. They had to create some suspense.
Finally, the fifth battle on the stage arrived. Many disciples' gazes landed on Yan Chutian and Shilong. The North Region disciples were naturally very confident in Shilong. Even if Shilong was not the best Holy Son, he was still in the top three and was very powerful.
Compared to the confidence of the North Region disciples, the South Region disciples did not think that Yan Chutian had much hope. After all, in everyone's opinion, Yan Chutian had already exhausted all his strength to defeat the Holy Son of the North Region yesterday.
