Swish!
The terrifying sword intent was both sharp and powerful.
A ferocious killing intent surged out of Ling Xiao's body and poured into the sword light.
The sharp sword intent became even sharper.
The black figure's hands were pierced through and a small cut appeared on its throat.
"You really are arrogant! But there's a reason for your arrogance. It's because I'm not as good as you! But you still can't reach that woman because you can't get past the fifth person. "
The black figure slowly fell to the ground and turned into a wisp of green smoke.
The fifth person?
Ling Xiao gave a start. He didn't see the fifth person.
Could it be?
He thought of the ten figures at the 18th level of Yin Yang realm.
Could this fifth person be one of them?
If so, then it'd be terrible.
The 18th level of the Yin Yang realm was the peak of the Yin Yang realm.
Aside from those at the half-step Rebirth realm, they were almost invincible.
With Ling Xiao's current cultivation, it was too difficult to defeat an opponent of this level.
But he had to try.
He knew that Tianhai Tyranny, Feng Feiye, and even Lei Lie were all at the 18th level of the Yin Yang realm.
His Taiji Eye couldn't see through their cultivation levels, but he could guess that they were stronger than that. They couldn't be weaker than the 18th level of the Yin Yang realm.
"Since no one's watching, I might as well use my full strength. It's been a long time since I've used all my trump cards."
Ling Xiao saw the black shadow that had already appeared.
Just as he predicted, it was at the peak of the 18th level of the Yin Yang realm.
Less than ten seconds had passed since the last two minutes.
Ling Xiao still had one minute and fifty seconds to defeat the black figure and save Cold Plum.
… …
At the same time, a huge uproar was happening outside Thunderclap City.
Everyone was looking at the stage.
Even Tianhai Tyranny, Feng Feiye, and Lei Lie had been sent out.
Lei Lie hadn't entered the spatial crack, but he was sent out as well. That was because the people outside were being chased by the black figure.
If the people outside could enter the spatial crack, the black figure inside could come out as well.
"What's going on? It wasn't time yet, so why had everyone come out? Could it be that something happened inside? "
"That shouldn't be the case. Maybe these people all think that victory is already in their grasp, so it's fine if they don't continue for the last two minutes."
"What you said seems to make some sense. Then guess who exactly will become the top three geniuses?"
"If you ask me, Feng Feiye counts as one, Tianhai Tyranny counts as another, and then there's Lei Lie!"
"Don't look down on the other geniuses. Drunken Linglong is unfathomable, and the little guy is strange and unpredictable. They could all be the strongest contenders for the top three."
"Anyway, it can't be that arrogant Ling Xiao, right? Hahahaha."
"Hahaha, that's right. That person is only good at talking. Although he has some strength, against 13 top geniuses, not to mention getting into the top three, I reckon he won't even be able to keep his life."
"That's right, that's right. We've seen plenty of people like him."
"He didn't come out. Could he be dead?"
"He's definitely dead. Otherwise, how could he still be alive when the others have all come out? Could he be stronger than the 13 top geniuses?"
While the crowd was praising the 13 top geniuses, they didn't forget to mock Ling Xiao as well.
It was as if Ling Xiao was the clown of the White Tiger Meet.
But they didn't know that clowns were sometimes the scariest of existences.
Lawless and the other five judges stood in the air, anxiously waiting for the results to be tallied up.
As they saw it, the second round of the White Tiger Meet, the treasure hunt, had already ended early. There was no need to wait any longer.
Ling Xiao must have died inside. In the end, he'd be teleported out with the other dead cultivators.
Right now, he was more concerned about who had the highest score and whether or not anyone had gotten a divine grade spirit weapon.
Just as the spectators had predicted, the three strongest geniuses in his eyes were Feng Feiye, Tianhai Tyranny, and Lei Lie.
But even if a dark horse appeared, it couldn't be the 16 geniuses from the first round.
Of course it couldn't be Ling Xiao, because that guy was already dead.
"The results are out!"
Suddenly, Lawless received a report.
"Announce it immediately!"
Lawless said excitedly.
He wanted to know who the top three geniuses were as well. After all, they might have divine grade spirit weapons in their hands.
"There's still a minute left. Are we really going to end it early?"
The martial artist who came to report asked hesitantly.
"What are you hesitating for? Those who haven't come out yet are all trash. Do you think they're stronger than the 13 top geniuses?"
Lawless looked coldly at the newcomer and shouted.
"Supreme Divinity's words are correct. This subordinate will announce the results now!"
After all, Lawless was his superior and he was only a subordinate. He didn't dare speak too much, lest he offend the other and lose his life.
Hearing that the results were about to be announced, everyone grew excited.
But there were still some discordant voices.
"Judge, we don't accept this!"
The ones who spoke were those who were on good terms with Ling Xiao.
"Why don't you accept this?"
Lawless looked coldly at these people. A bunch of ants dared to raise objections to his way of doing things.
"The Treasure Hunt isn't over yet. Isn't it too hasty to announce the results now? How do you know that Ling Xiao can't be stronger than them?"
The one who spoke was Dan Feng.
As the strongest and most stable martial artist in the Heavenly Empire, Ling Xiao wasn't here for the time being, so of course he had to speak.
"Are you questioning my judgment?"
Lawless looked coldly at Dan Feng, his eyes revealing a cold murderous intent.
"I wouldn't dare. I'm just speaking the truth."
Dan Feng said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
"Ants should just sit there obediently and not spout nonsense. Does Ling Xiao think he can surpass us with just his strength? I'm not afraid to tell you that I saw him killed with my own eyes, and he died under my hands. "
Hundred Eyed Demon Lord Wu Long sneered.
"Yes, we saw it too. Ling Xiao is indeed dead. He died under the sword of a black shadow. As for who killed him, it's not clear."
Lei Tun also spoke out.
"Humph, that kid is extremely arrogant. Others will choose to run when they encounter danger, but he wants to pretend to be a fatty when he encounters danger. He deserves to be killed."
Because he suffered a loss at the hands of Ling Xiao, Lei Mang naturally slandered and despised Ling Xiao.
"You say that my big brother is dead, so he's dead? What bullshit top genius, you're all just a bunch of rascals, shooting your mouth off and talking nonsense! "
Long Chen stood up in rage, and a dragon roar actually sounded out.
The current him has already become the second strongest in the Heavenly Empire, stronger than Dan Feng and second only to Ling Xiao.
Although he can be very impulsive at times, when he fights, it's very reassuring.
