Following this, the second match began.
A handsome black-robed youth and a youth wearing fiery-red armor walked onto the stage at the same time.
That handsome black-robed youth was precisely one of the Black and White Heroes, Wei Lingfeng, a genius ranked in the top ten of the Azure Cloud Kingdom.
And that youth martial artist wearing fiery-red armor was a young master of some influential family in the imperial city.
Although this person had the strength of the third level of the True Element Realm and also had some fame in the imperial city, he was absolutely not Wei Lingfeng's match.
After all, Wei Lingfeng's strength reached the fifth level of the True Element Realm.
The tens of thousands of spectators in the plaza had all heard of Wei Lingfeng's name before and knew his strength.
Therefore, no one was optimistic about that youth wearing fiery-red armor called Sun Kaixian.
Seeing the two people each holding their treasured swords and confronting each other after ascending the stage, countless spectators started discussing.
"With Wei Lingfeng's strength, he doesn't need to fight at all and can definitely rank in the top ten."
"Yeah, Wei Lingfeng is a genius ranked in the top ten. Sun Kaixian is absolutely not his match."
"I reckon that Sun Kaixian can at most last ten moves under Wei Lingfeng's hands and will be defeated!"
"Ten moves? I think he'll be defeated in six moves! "
"Five moves! At most five moves! "
Just as everyone was discussing animatedly, Sun Kaixian on the stage opened his mouth to speak.
His expression was very ugly, and his tone was filled with helplessness as he said to Wei Lingfeng, "Brother Wei, forget it if we don't fight this match, I'm willing to admit defeat!"
"Huhu … Want to be a carp leaping over the dragon gate and enter the Sky Pillar Sect as a disciple, it doesn't just rely on strength, it also relies on luck!"
No one would have thought that Sun Kaixian actually did not draw his sword to fight and directly admitted defeat!
The crowd in the plaza immediately burst into an uproar. Countless people started discussing.
Some people mocked Sun Kaixian for being cowardly and afraid to fight, actually directly admitting defeat without fighting.
But some people felt that Sun Kaixian's action was wise. Rather than being defeated after exchanging a few moves, it was better to directly admit defeat.
Furthermore, when everyone heard Sun Kaixian's words, they all understood his meaning.
He also had the desire to enter the Sky Pillar Sect and soar to the heavens in one bound.
It was just that his luck was too bad, being drawn to fight with Wei Lingfeng.
This was fate!
Just as he said, wanting to be a carp leaping over the dragon gate to become a true dragon, not only relied on strength, it also required a certain amount of luck.
Deacon Han Qiusheng loudly announced the results. Wei Lingfeng won, and Sun Kaixian was eliminated.
The two of them left the ring respectively. The audience below the ring was still discussing endlessly.
Next, the third battle began.
Two young martial artists stepped onto the arena and began to fight with murderous intent.
One of the young men who used a saber was called Fan Jianren. This name brought him a lot of trouble, and he was often ridiculed and mocked by others.
His opponents then made an issue out of it, mocking and insulting him without restraint in order to provoke him.
The result was obvious. Fan Jianren lost his sense of propriety in his rage and was unable to display his full strength. Regretfully, he was defeated.
Next, the fourth and fifth matches were carried out in order …
Pairs of young martial artists ascended the ring one after another. After a fierce battle, the outcome was decided amidst the discussions and cheers of tens of thousands of spectators.
The loser was miserably eliminated and left the stage dejectedly.
The winner would advance to the next round and enjoy the cheers and praises of countless people.
Two hours passed.
During this period, a total of 14 pairs of martial artists went up the stage to fight, and seven of them were eliminated.
Among the seven that successfully advanced were top geniuses like Jiang Baiyu and Jian Wusheng.
Finally, the 15th battle began, and it was Ji Tianxing's turn to enter the ring.
His opponent was a young martial artist at the fourth level of the True Element Realm called Wan Silin.
This person was the young master of the Imperial City's influential Wan Clan. In the past, he had become enemies with Ji Tianxing, and there were grievances between them.
Wan Silin was the first to jump onto the ring. Standing on the high platform, he sneered at Ji Tianxing and even hooked his finger in ridicule.
A cold light flashed in Ji Tianxing's eyes as he walked onto the ring with the Black Dragon Sword in hand.
Instantly, the gazes of tens of thousands of spectators gathered on Ji Tianxing, and they started to discuss enthusiastically with complicated expressions.
"Ji Tianxing has finally entered the ring! This is his first battle! "
"Hehe, although this fellow has recovered to the True Element Realm, I don't know what level he is at. Can he defeat Wan Silin?"
"In my opinion, no matter how fast Ji Tianxing's strength recovers, it is impossible for him to defeat Wan Silin, who is at the fourth level of the True Element Realm!"
"I heard that Wan Silin has a grudge with Ji Tianxing. Wan Silin will definitely defeat Ji Tianxing at all costs!"
"Whether Ji Tianxing is a good-for-nothing or a genius who has recovered to the True Element Realm will be revealed soon!"
On the stage, Wan Silin looked at Ji Tianxing with a cold smile. His tone was filled with ridicule as he said, "Ji Tianxing, back then, you slapped me three times in front of everyone in the gambling house. I will never forget this grudge!"
"Today, I will beat you down in front of the entire city and make you beg for mercy. I will avenge my humiliation!"
Ji Tianxing looked at him expressionlessly and said in an indifferent tone, "Back then, you schemed against my Ji Family's disciples and made them addicted to gambling. You even instigated them to steal a million taels of silver to gamble."
"I am only giving you a small punishment. I have already given your Wan Family a lot of face!"
"You want me to beg for mercy? Hehe … Maybe in your next life. "
Ji Tianxing curled his lips and revealed a contemptuous smile.
Wan Silin's eyes were filled with rage. He shouted in a low voice, "Hmph! Ji Tianxing, you are too arrogant! "
"Everyone in the city is saying that you have recovered to the True Element Realm. I would like to see how far you can recover in a short month!"
"You good-for-nothing Ji want to turn the tables and wash away your humiliation? You must be dreaming! "
Wan Silin shouted angrily. He immediately drew his sword and attacked Ji Tianxing with all his might.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Three streaks of sharp sword light slashed towards Ji Tianxing's three vital points.
"We will know who is the good-for-nothing later!" Ji Tianxing sneered, but he did not show any signs of drawing his sword.
He used a mysterious footwork and his figure flickered. He easily dodged the three streaks of sword light.
"You are not drawing your sword? You are too arrogant! "
Wan Silin looked as if he had been greatly insulted. His eyes were filled with rage.
He waved his sword again and five streaks of sword light enveloped Ji Tianxing's figure.
Ji Tianxing's figure flickered again and again. He easily dodged the sword light again and said expressionlessly.
"You are not worthy for me to draw my sword!"
The martial artists around the ring were staring at the battle in the ring. Their nerves were tense.
Seeing Wan Silin's fierce attacks and Ji Tianxing not drawing his sword, the crowd began to whisper to each other.
At this moment, when the crowd heard Ji Tianxing's confident words, they burst into an uproar.
"Haha, Ji Tianxing is really arrogant!"
"Hmph! That guy is just putting on a brave front. If he is really so strong, why is he dodging and not fighting back? "
"So what if he has recovered to the True Element Realm? He is still no match for Wan Silin. "
"Hehe, it seems that Ji Tianxing is only that capable. It is a fool's dream to think that he can get into the top 10 in the Tournament!"
