"If Blood Mountain hadn't shown mercy, do you think you would still be alive?"
Commander Hong's words were like a sharp knife that directly pierced Zi Diao's heart.
"I, I …" Zi Diao stammered for a long time, but could not say a word.
No matter how unwilling he was in his heart, what had just happened did not allow him to quibble at all.
If Jian Wushuang had not shown mercy?
Then he … would have been dead!
"Humph."
Commander Hong snorted and scolded, "You lost. How dare you quibble? Moreover, do you think Blood Mountain can't defeat you without using his consciousness attack? "
Zi Diao was stunned and immediately looked at Jian Wushuang.
Jian Wushuang's eyes were still as indifferent as ever.
The Three-clawed Blood Eagle Guards looked at Zi Diao with contempt and ridicule.
All the Three-clawed Blood Eagle Guards present were experts at the peak of Step Six. They had seen the battle clearly.
In that fierce battle, from beginning to end, Jian Wushuang had only been resisting Zi Diao's attack, but everyone could see his calmness.
They were sure that Jian Wushuang had not used his full strength from beginning to end.
Even though it seemed that Jian Wushuang had suddenly used his consciousness attack to catch Zi Diao off guard, in fact, Jian Wushuang had used the simplest way to win because he was afraid of trouble or did not want to expose his powerful means.
If Jian Wushuang had not used his consciousness attack, how could Zi Diao have won the battle?
What a joke.
"Blood Mountain is very strong!"
"He is indeed very strong. In the battle just now, he was only passively defending and did not show his full strength at all. But even so, he easily defeated Zi Diao. According to my estimation, his real strength can definitely rank in the top five among us Three-clawed Blood Eagle Guards."
"Top five? I don't think so. With his calmness, maybe he has the strength to rank in the top three. "
"Zi Diao has been defeated. Is he still not convinced? Ridiculous. "
Some Three-clawed Blood Eagle Guards were talking casually. They did not deliberately hide their voices, so Jian Wushuang and Zi Diao heard it.
Zi Diao's face had turned red and he was extremely shy.
As for Jian Wushuang, he was still indifferent.
To him, defeating a Zi Diao was nothing at all.
15 years ago, when Jian Wushuang first joined the Blood Eagle Guard, his strength soared after a month of Divine Sea cultivation. At that time, he was confident that he could compete with an expert at the peak of Step Six with the Blood Mountain's Sword.
Over the past 15 years, his strength had improved tremendously from the dangerous missions he had been through.
Putting everything else aside, just in terms of Sword Heart, he had already reached the fourth level of Sword Heart and his Sword Heart had advanced by leaps and bounds.
Even if he did not use the Blood Mountain Sword and the Mind-controlling Secret Skill, he was confident that he could fight with Zi Diao head-on. Once he used the Blood Mountain Sword and the Mind-controlling Secret Skill, he could easily defeat Zi Diao.
"Alright."
Commander Hong said, and the whole hall immediately quieted down.
"Zi Diao, as you said, strength is everything. Whoever is stronger can participate in this Hell Level task. Now that you have been defeated by Blood Mountain, if you are not convinced, you can continue to challenge Jiu Zui, Ling Long, and Shui Jin. As long as you can defeat any one of them, you still have a chance to participate in this Hell Level task," Commander Hong said indifferently.
Hearing this, Zi Diao's face twitched.
There were 17 Three-clawed Blood Eagle Guards before Jian Wushuang. These 17 Three-clawed Blood Eagle Guards had secretly competed with each other and had a rough ranking of their strength. Zi Diao, for example, ranked 10th in this ranking, not even in the top 10.
The three people mentioned by Commander Hong were Jiu Zui, Ling Long, and Shui Jin …
Among the three people, Jiu Zui was ranked first in the rough ranking and was recognized by everyone.
Although the other Three-clawed Blood Eagle Guards were confident in their own strength, they had to bow their heads in front of Jiu Zui.
In terms of ranking, Ling Long was indeed inferior to Jiu Zui, but she was still ranked third. Moreover, she was recognized as the most terrifying person in the Blood Eagle Guard. She had endless means, and even Jiu Zui did not dare to rashly confront her.
As for Shui Jin, he was still ranked eighth in the ranking, three levels higher than Zi Diao.
The reason why Zi Diao had asked Jian Wushuang to back off was that, in addition to his jealousy of Jian Wushuang, the other three were all stronger than him. He had no room to compete with them, so he could only treat Jian Wushuang as a pushover.
Who would have thought that Jian Wushuang was also an iron plate?
Now, according to the strength ranking, the other three were all stronger than him, and Jian Wushuang had defeated him. Naturally, he had no chance to participate in this Hell Level task.
"Why? Don't you want to challenge them?" Commander Hong looked down at Zi Diao.
Zi Diao clenched his teeth. Seeing Jiu Zui, Ling Long, and Shui Jin's faint smiles, he could only shake his head with a wry smile and give up the task.
"In this case, the four people who will carry out the Hell Level task have been decided. They are Jiu Zui, Ling Long, Shui Jin, and Blood Mountain." Commander Hong announced the result directly. "As for the others, if there is nothing else, you can go back to carry out the previous task."
"Yes."
The Three-clawed Blood Eagle Guards who did not accept the Hell Level task quickly left.
Only Jian Wushuang and the other three stayed in the hall.
Inside the palace, Commander Hong stood at the top of the stairs and looked down. "The mission this time is no small matter. Although the four of you have great strength and confidence, you still have to be mentally prepared."
Hearing this, the hearts of Jian Wushuang and the other three sank.
Commander Hong floated down and waved to Jian Wushuang and the others. "Follow me."
"Commander, where are we going?" Jiu Zui could not help asking.
"This Hell Level task was issued by Empress Leng herself. I don't know the content of the task, so I will take you to see her," Commander Hong said.
"Empress Leng?"
Jian Wushuang, Jiu Zui, Ling Long, and Shui Jin were all shocked.
Empress Leng?
One of the four emperors in the heyday of the Tang of the East?
The current ruler of the Tang of the East?
Empress Leng, who had great fame and deterrence in the entire Eternal World?
