Less than an hour after the Wanxian League announced the list, Dixian also announced its own list.
This was undoubtedly a novelty for the ancient Earth Immortals who had always disdained to keep pace with the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals. It also proved that after Wang Lu's five consecutive victories, he had received enough attention from the other party.
However, the more attention Dixian paid, the slimmer the hope for the Wanxian League to win.
"Little Poison Immortal, Xuerou Tu, Ravenous Wolf … They are serious!"
After Dixian announced the list through the signboard that was used to broadcast the competition in each area, the laments of cultivators could be heard everywhere in the City of Immortals.
Any one of the four people on the list had a thunderous reputation. In the previous two months of competition, they had already made outstanding contributions.
Outstanding achievements built on the corpses of a large number of Nine Regions cultivators.
Because of the words of the black-clad Dixian, the scene in the first two months of the Grand Competition was very cruel. Dixian showed no mercy and repeatedly brutally killed the cultivators of the Wanxian League in the battle. Although killing was not allowed in the Grand Competition, many of the killings were deliberate. For example, when Little Poison Immortal fought against Senior Red Blood Poison, Senior Red Blood Poison already had the idea of surrendering after his original blood poison was declared invalid. However, before he could open his mouth, his throat was melted by Little Poison Immortal's Immortal Transformation Powder. Until the blood in his chest was completely gushed out, he still could not say the word 'surrender'.
This was obviously a deliberate torture. Senior Red Blood Poison died miserably. At that time, Supreme Ting Feng, the master of Heavenly Book Building, also began to question Wang Lu's decision …
Dixian's move was to suppress the morale and fighting spirit of the Wanxian League and plant the seed of fear in their hearts … In fact, this tactic was successful for a time. Many cultivators of the Wanxian League did not even dare to look directly at their opponent's eyes when they walked into the arena, and could only display fifty to sixty percent of their ability. It was not until Wang Lu stepped up and reinvigorated the morale of the Wanxian League with a five-game winning streak.
However, when people saw the names of Little Poison Immortal, Xuerou Tu, Ravenous Wolf, and Bai Ze, they still felt a chill.
These people were probably the most ruthless and bloodthirsty in the Dixian, especially the previous three.
Before Little Poison Immortal joined the Dixian organization, he was an out-and-out devil. In order to study poison, he did not hesitate to sacrifice the lives of thousands of people. In today's Nine Regions, the ten thousand spirit blood pearl, which was regarded as the most valuable evil treasure of the demons, was a demonic treasure refined from the souls of tens of thousands of innocent creatures. Little Poison Immortal had at least a hundred of them.
Xuerou Tu, on the other hand, was basically a lunatic. Although he had the cultivation of a Dixian, he ate raw meat and drank blood, like a savage. He loved human flesh the most in his life. The higher the cultivation, the more he liked the flesh. In this Grand Competition, he once defeated a Yuanying Stage cultivator, and then in front of tens of thousands of people in the audience, he directly swallowed the opponent's soul, pulled out the tendons and skinned the opponent's body. That match almost caused a riot. The relatives and friends of the deceased were ready to rush into the arena to avenge him, despite the obstruction of the Golden Armored Warrior. Fortunately, they were eventually stopped by the Golden Armored Warrior. Although they could not avoid the torture of the Small Dark Room, they finally escaped with their lives … In that fight, Xuerou Tu and his flesh apron, which was sewn from the scalps of dozens of Yuanying Stage cultivators, became famous. At the same time, he also said that he would take advantage of this Grand Competition to sew a new apron.
As for Ravenous Wolf, he was a bit cleaner than the first two. He never killed or tortured his opponents. However, in the three matches he had fought so far, none of his opponents survived … Even in a relatively low confrontation match, he could still cause this and that kind of "accident" and reasonably kill his opponents. If Little Poison Immortal and Xuerou Tu were the demons from hell, then Ravenous Wolf was like a ghost hiding in the shadow, low-key, but equally deadly.
According to the match list, these three people would be dealt with by Liu Li, Zhu Shiyao, and Quan Zouhua … As long as they thought that the three young girls in their prime were likely to fall in the hands of a few homicidal maniacs, the chill in people's heart became even more unbearable.
Some enthusiastic cultivators even wanted to take the initiative to find Wang Lu and let him think twice before acting, so as not to cause irreparable losses because of a moment of impulse.
However, these people's efforts were, of course, in vain. Once Wang Lu made a decision, how could he easily go back on it?
—
In the midst of the audience's worries, the day of the match finally came.
On this day, the Central Arena, which could accommodate millions of people in Immortal One Area, was full of seats. Cultivators from all over Nine Regions gathered here to pay attention to this fateful match.
Although the whole Grand Competition had only been carried out for less than one-third, everyone knew that whether the Wanxian League would reverse the decline and soar to the sky, or fall back into the abyss and completely lose the whole Grand Competition, all depended on this move.
On the rostrum, more than a hundred Dixian members, as well as more than a hundred Wanxian League Elders, had taken their seats. The Dixian side was silent, but the Wanxian League side was in a heated discussion.
The discussion about the current situation, the opponent, Wang Lu, and Supreme He Tu … Regarding this, He Tu himself completely turned a deaf ear, closed his eyes, and did not answer. In this match, he gave Wang Lu a surprising trust, completely letting him do whatever he wanted. Even if Wang Lu gave him a list that was puzzling, He Tu still did not change his original intention.
He spared no effort to support Wang Lu.
However, He Tu himself refused to cooperate, so people's focus naturally turned to Lingjian School, which was also the protagonist of today's competition.
"Feng Yin Daoist Master, does your lead disciple really have a chance to win, or does he want to bluff? Isn't this list of names a bit too big? Not only are they all people from your Spirit Sword Sect, but they are all junior disciples! What do you mean by that? If I remember correctly, during that catastrophe, there were some surviving cultivators in your sect. Each and every one of them is very powerful. Don't hide them, call them out to fight! "
The outspoken Red-robed Patriarch always spoke his mind. He even subconsciously said some news that Lingjian School did not want to make public. However, after hearing this, it was inconvenient for Feng Yin to close his eyes and not answer like He Tu. Red-robed Patriarch had no friendship with Shengjing Sect, but his friendship with Lingjian School was very deep. There was no need to alienate and offend such an ally for no reason.
"Wang Lu naturally won't fight a battle that he's not sure of, so please rest assured, Fellow Daoist Red Robe."
Red-robed Patriarch felt a bit relieved after getting the assurance from Feng Yin Daoist Master. However, after thinking for a moment, he was still not at ease. "Even if your family's Liu Li and Zhu Shiyao are talented, isn't their cultivation time too short? Do you think I don't know about the training program of Royal Soldier Sect? At that time, Kuqin found more than a dozen people to help Royal Soldier Sect perfect that training program, and I was one of them. Even if Little Wang Lu has the ability to improve that program, the efficiency improvement is limited. At least at this time, they absolutely can't beat Little Poison Immortal and Xuerou Tu! "
Feng Yin helplessly shook his head. "Fellow Daoist Red Robe, even if Liu Li and Zhu Shiyao can't win, it doesn't mean that we will lose this match."
Red-robed Patriarch was stunned. "… Don't tell me you're pinning your hope on that dog?"
Unfortunately, as soon as his voice fell, the clear bell that signaled the start of the match rang in the central arena.
In an instant, the attention of millions of people focused on it. Even the curious and outspoken Red-robed Patriarch put down his doubts and waited for the change in the arena.
First, the contestants entered the arena.
The moment the bell rang, Dixian's team appeared in the center of the arena. Little Poison Immortal, who was as thin as a child; Xuerou Tu, who was burly and covered in blood; Ravenous Wolf, whose body was like a phantom, half real and half illusory … and Bai Ze, who was surrounded by twelve golden seals.
When the four of them appeared, they had already suppressed their strength to King Pill Stage. Their primordial spirit and body were all limited to one ten-thousandth of their original body. However, even so, millions of spectators still felt a faint suffocating oppression.
This kind of oppression did not come from their tyrannical strength, but from the cruel killing intent that was refined in the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The massive slaughter made them the natural enemy of cultivators, so that people could feel the natural fear of the lower level of the food chain toward the higher level.
"… Do we really want to fight with such an opponent?"
An old cultivator's body suddenly trembled.
"This kind of Slaughtering Demon is not something we can compete with at all. Unless Great Ancestor Desheng is resurrected, they are invincible in this world!"
"Slaughtering Demon, what are you talking about?"
The old cultivator said in a nearly collapsed tone, "You haven't experienced the great war of Immortals and Demons, so you can't understand the horror of these demons! We are all wrong! We thought they were human beings, but they are actually demons! "
"Demons?!"
As soon as this remark came out, it immediately caused an uproar. Although this old cultivator's realm was not high, only at the level of Yuanying, he had a long lifespan. He had experienced the last great war of Immortals and Demons and survived. What he had seen and heard alone was a valuable asset, far more valuable than his Four Elements Yuanying.
Although he was old and sometimes his mind was not very clear, his judgment about the demon race had never been wrong. Therefore, when he said the Slaughtering Demon and locked the identity of the demon race, the shock in people's hearts was self-evident.
"Feng Yin Daoist Master … Is this scene also within Wang Lu's expectation?" The Red-robed Elder was tongue-tied. There were demons in the Dixian, which he, as an Elder of the Heavenly Sage Hall, naturally knew. But he never thought that there would be so many demons! Moreover, even Bai Ze was a demon!
No wonder they were merciless when they made their move before, which even made many people in the Wanxian League doubt whether the Dixian really had the sincerity to cooperate against the Fallen Immortals. Now, the answer was self-evident. The blood feud between the Human Race and the Demon Race was not inferior to that of the Fallen Immortals.
However, at this time, a leisurely laughter rang in the ears of the Red-robed Elder.
"Don't worry, Elder, all of this is naturally within my expectation."
Hearing this voice, the Elder's mouth opened wider, "Wang Lu, why are you here?"
"Because the view here is the best."
