In just a short while, two Emperor Wu powerhouses had fallen.
Duan Lingtian's first opponent in the second round of the martial competition was someone he did not want to meet the most.
Thundercloud Peak's Lan Bi.
"As a Thundercloud Peak disciple, Zhou Yi must know Lan Bi's strength very well. If he sees that I'm capable of defeating Lan Bi, I'm afraid he'll admit defeat before I even make a move. "
Duan Lingtian was slightly depressed.
Initially, he had planned to kill Zhou Yi in the Hidden Fog Martial Competition and take back the Devilseal Tablet that originally belonged to him.
However, it was a little troublesome now.
Lan Bi was the direct disciple of the Thundercloud Peak's owner, Emperor Wu of Thundercloud Peak on Cloud Continent. According to Yang Hui, she was at the Second Level of Emperor Wu Stage. She was extremely powerful.
She was definitely stronger than Zhou Yi.
Naturally, this little bit of strength was nothing to the current him. Not to mention he could defeat her without using the Colossal Aerolite Arrow, he could even defeat her without using any martial skills.
"Forget it … I'll let her win for the Devilseal Tablet."
Soon after, Duan Lingtian made up his mind.
Subsequently, under everyone's watchful eyes, Duan Lingtian and Lan Bi's battle only lasted for about ten breaths before he was completely defeated.
In the end, it was as though he did not have the strength to fight back at all.
However, all of this seemed flawless on the surface. Almost nobody, including Lan Bi herself, could see that Duan Ling Tian had intentionally lost.
"Congratulations, Senior Sister Bi."
After Lan Bi won, Zhou Yi was the first to congratulate her. At the same time, he looked at Duan Lingtian with a cold gleam in his eyes. "Although this Duan Lingtian has broken through to the Emperor Wu Stage like me, he only lasted for about ten breaths against Senior Sister Bi. His strength is far from mine."
A few days ago, Zhou Yi had sparred with Lan Bi.
Without more than twenty breaths, it would be difficult for Lan Bi to defeat him.
Due to this reason, he concluded Duan Lingtian was no match for him.
"Brother Ling Tian …"
Not far away, Yang Hui was stunned.
As for Duan Lingtian's defeat, those who didn't know his strength didn't think much of it.
However, Yang Hui, as well as Kerr and Li Fei, who were well aware of Duan Lingtian's strength, were at a loss when they looked at Duan Lingtian. They didn't know why Duan Lingtian was giving in.
They could all see that Duan Lingtian had held back just now, and had deliberately lost to Lan Bi.
"I don't want to alert the enemy."
Duan Ling Tian replied unhurriedly when faced with Yang Hui and the two girls' questioning Voice Transmissions.
Alert the enemy?
Hearing this, the three of them looked around for a while, but didn't find anything wrong.
"You dare to participate in the Hidden Fog Martial Competition with such little strength?"
Chen Zhi sneered when he saw Duan Lingtian was defeated just like that.
Lan Bi's strength had always been in his eyes. Although her cultivation was similar to his, in terms of strength, she was far inferior to him.
However, Duan Lingtian was defeated by Lan Bi.
'As long as he dares to fight … I won't give him any chance to admit defeat.'
Chen Zhi glared at Duan Lingtian coldly as he swore in his heart.
Among the people present, besides Yang Hui, Ke Er, and Li Fei who were familiar with Duan Ling Tian's strength, there was no one else who could see through the clues of the battle earlier.
Cold Emperor Wu was undoubtedly one of them.
She had fought Duan Lingtian before. Although it was only one hit, she was certain that Duan Lingtian's strength was definitely on par with a Fourth Level Emperor Wu.
'He doesn't seem to know the female disciple from Thundercloud Peak, but he admitted defeat on purpose … He must be up to something!'
Cold Emperor Wu speculated as a gleam flashed in her eyes.
However, she had no idea what he was up to.
Apart from Cold Emperor Wu, there was another person who saw through the earlier battle. This person was none other than Qing Xuan Emperor Wu.
Qing Xuan Emperor Wu glanced at Duan Lingtian. A gleam flashed in the depth of his eyes before he looked away. No one knew what he was thinking about.
"So this is his strength?"
"If this is all he has … He'll definitely die if he encounters Chen Zhi!"
"Unless he surrenders in the beginning, he'll be in deep trouble."
…
Many of the Hidden Fog Island's core disciples looked at Duan Lingtian from afar and whispered among themselves.
Chen Zhi's face darkened when he heard the whispers of the Hidden Fog Island's core disciples. He was worried that Duan Lingtian would be frightened by these core disciples. He was worried that Duan Lingtian would not dare to fight him when they encountered each other.
He did not want to see this happen.
However, he was destined to be overthinking.
As time went by, the four Peak Martial Emperors were eliminated one after another. One by one, Emperor Wu powerhouses were eliminated. At the same time, another three Emperor Wu powerhouses were killed.
Among them, one of the Emperor Wu powerhouses who was killed was under Qing Xuan Emperor Wu.
Even the Hidden Fog Island had lost two core disciples who were at the Emperor Wu Realm.
The battle was getting more and more intense.
Weng!
Spurt!
Suddenly, an ear-piercing sound pierced through the air, accompanied by the clear sound of something entering a body. It sent chills down the spines of many people at the scene.
A young lady with a pale face was performing a claw martial skill. Her claw pierced through her opponent's chest. Her pair of boneless hands then forcefully stuffed into her opponent's body.
After a while, she withdrew her hands, and a heart that was still beating appeared in her hands.
Smack!
Just as the Emperor Wu powerhouse whose heart was dug out stopped breathing and fell to the ground, the young lady exerted force in her hands and crushed the heart that was dug out.
Blood splattered everywhere. It was so dazzling that it sent chills down the spines of many people.
"Bloody! It's too bloody! "
Many people's faces turned pale as they were shocked.
"So powerful! Her ability has already broken through to Emperor Wu Realm Level Three. "
Duan Ling Tian looked at the young woman, and his heart was filled with shock.
The young lady with a pale face who was expressionless from the beginning until the end looked like a walking corpse. She was the young lady who followed the Third Island Master of the Hidden Fog Island here.
Unlike most of the people, the Third Island Master of the Hidden Fog Island had a gratified expression on his face.
This was because this lady was not only a core disciple of the Hidden Fog Island, but she was also his direct disciple as well.
Soon after, Duan Lingtian entered the arena again.
This was his last battle in the second round of the Hidden Fog Martial Competition. As long as he won, he would be able to enter the top ten in the Hidden Fog Martial Competition. At that time, he would be able to compete with the other nine people for the top ten ranking.
However, until now, he had not encountered Zhou Yi.
When Duan Lingtian entered the arena, his opponent entered the arena as well and confronted him.
"Do you guys think he'll admit defeat?"
Many people looked at Duan Lingtian and discussed among themselves.
"I think he'll definitely admit defeat. After all, he can't even win against that female powerhouse who lost to Chen Zhi."
Some people spoke as they looked in the direction of the people from Thundercloud Peak. Their eyes landed on Lan Bi.
Lan Bi was defeated by Chen Zhi earlier.
"I was wondering when they would encounter each other. I didn't expect them to encounter each other in the second round."
Most of the people looked at the scene before them as though they were on steroids.
At this moment, the person who stood opposite Duan Lingtian was none other than Chen Zhi.
Chen Zhi was the person who was sent flying by Duan Lingtian and was severely injured not long ago.
He was also the only son of the Second Island Master of the Hidden Fog Island.
"It seems like even the heavens are on my side!"
At this moment, Chen Zhi's heart was filled with excitement as he stared at the purple-clad young man in front of him.
In his opinion, since he had encountered his opponent, he would be able to kill him immediately to avenge his humiliation.
That was not all.
As long as he killed his opponent, his two women would be his as well.
Chen Zhi's heart was burning when he thought about the two beauties.
At this moment, he was most worried that Duan Lingtian would admit defeat.
If that happened, he would lose a great opportunity for revenge. This was not something he wanted to see.
When Chen Zhi looked over, Duan Ling Tian was also looking at Chen Zhi. His eyes were cold as ice.
"I didn't expect that I would meet him so soon … It's impossible for me to hand over the 'victory' to him in this battle. I must win this battle. I can't lose! '
Duan Lingtian thought to himself as his eyes gleamed brightly.
At this moment, he no longer cared about letting Zhou Yi know his true strength.
Even if Zhou Yi feared him because of his next move, or even admitted defeat on his own accord when they met later on, he couldn't do anything about it.
He only knew that he could let anyone win, but he could not let Chen Zhi win.
Moreover, he would teach Chen Zhi an unforgettable lesson.
"Boy, I'll kill you soon. After I kill you, your fiancée will be mine."
As soon as Chen Zhi opened his mouth, he pointed at Kerr and Li Fei to provoke Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian was indeed enraged.
"You want to kill me? I'd like to see who's going to be the one who dies. "
Duan Lingtian replied coldly. He was unwilling to be outdone.
"There's no need to think about it. The person who dies will definitely not be me."
Chen Zhi sneered. His robe fluttered even though there was no wind. Milky white flames rose into the sky along with strands of energy of different colors. It was the Origin Energy and Profundity that Chen Zhi had cast.
Chen Zhi's strength could be considered as one of the best among the Second Level Emperor Wu Realm martial artists.
He might even be able to fight against an ordinary Third Level Emperor Wu Realm martial artist.
For this reason, he attacked like a bolt of lightning and flashed towards Duan Ling Tian like a ferocious tiger descending the mountain. It was as though he would not stop until he tore Duan Ling Tian into pieces.
"This purple-clad young man is going to die."
"He can only consider himself unlucky to have encountered Chen Zhi."
…
In the blink of an eye, many people whispered among themselves. They felt that Duan Lingtian was going to die in Chen Zhi's hands.
After all, in their eyes, Duan Lingtian had lost to Lan Bi before.
Lan Bi had also lost to Chen Zhi before.
At this moment, apart from those who knew about Duan Lingtian's strength, everyone was shocked.
