The host of the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties was sent by the Third Prince of King Qin's Mansion. He was a Great Overarching Golden Celestial.
"Both of you should be careful … I'm going to exert pressure on you now!"
The moment the host's voice fell, waves of powerful aura suddenly extended from his body and swept towards Yang Jin and Chu Yan, who were in the midst of a fierce battle, directly engulfing their figures.
Immediately, Yang Jin and Chu Yan both felt tremendous pressure.
However, they continued to fight while resisting the pressure from the host's aura. They were evenly matched, and it was difficult to determine the winner.
"Hmph!"
The host snorted when he saw this. His Celestial Origin Energy surged out of his body and transformed into an invisible force that shrouded Yang Jin and Chu Yan.
Yang Jin and Chu Yan felt even more pressure.
At this moment, everyone's gazes landed on Yang Jin and Chu Yan's bodies.
"Yang Jin!"
Wang Qi Ling, the County Governor of Fair Mountain County, looked at Yang Jin with anticipation. He hoped Yang Jin would defeat Chu Yan and win the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties.
If Yang Jin defeated Chu Yan and won the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties, Fair Mountain County would be able to obtain three mediocre Celestial Pills, the Great Overarching Pills, from King Qin's Mansion.
Three Great Overarching Pills would make three Great Overarching Golden Celestials!
"Yan 'er …"
The governor of the Lingfeng County, Chu Tingxuan, was no longer as calm as before. His gaze towards Chu Yan was filled with anticipation and desire.
He hoped Chu Yan would be able to defeat Yang Jin and win the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties.
This way, even if Duan Ling Tian, the trump card of Nine Specters County, appeared after Chu Yan defeated Yang Jin, he would still be able to secure second place in the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties and obtain two mediocre Celestial Pills, the Great Overarching Pills, for the Soaring Wind County.
As long as Soaring Wind County obtained two Great Overarching Pills, he would be able to break through and become an earth-rank Great Overarching Golden Celestial!
Unlike Chu Ting Xuan, who was worried about Duan Lingtian, Wang Qi Ling, the County Governor of Soaring Wind County was not worried about Duan Lingtian.
The County Governor of Fair Mountain County, Wang Qi Ling, was not worried at all that Duan Lingtian would appear.
It wasn't because Wang Qi Ling thought that Fair Mountain County's trump card, Yang Jin, could defeat Duan Lingtian, but because he knew that even if Duan Lingtian appeared, he wouldn't be able to survive.
The reason the gray-robed man beside him had appeared here was to wait for Duan Lingtian to appear.
Therefore, in his opinion, as long as Yang Jin could defeat Chu Yan, he would be the champion of the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties, and Fair Mountain Prefecture would be rewarded handsomely by King Qin's Mansion, three Great Luo Pills!
"In the end, he couldn't hold it in anymore …"
In the VIP spectator seats, Duan Lingtian, who was originally staring intently at the intense battle between Yang Jin and Chu Yan, seemed to have noticed something as he secretly muttered in his heart. He also withdrew his gaze and did not take another look at Yang Jin and Chu Yan.
Almost at the same time Duan Lingtian retracted his gaze.
Bang!!
There was a deafening explosion.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Yang Jin had lost his composure and revealed a flaw. Chu Yan's eyes turned cold and his lips curled into a smile. He took advantage of Yang Jin's flaw and went straight for the root of the problem!
A vast amount of energy whizzed out from Chu Yan's palm and slammed into Yang Jin's body, directly sending him flying.
"Wah —"
After spitting out a mouthful of blood, Yang Jin did not pass out. However, his face was as pale as a sheet of paper, and his originally powerful aura had weakened significantly.
In his current state, it was impossible for him to continue fighting with Chu Yan.
If he continued, he would only be humiliating himself!
"Damn it!"
Because he realized this, Yang Jin's expression was very ugly, and his eyes were filled with unwillingness.
However, no matter how unwilling he was, he knew clearly that he had lost.
He had been defeated. He had suffered a crushing defeat!
"Do you still want to continue?"
After severely injuring Yang Jin with one blow, Chu Yan looked at Yang Jin in high spirits and asked.
"When I've recovered, I'll challenge you again … At that time, I won't be as careless as I was today!"
Yang Jin glanced coldly at Chu Yan. After saying this, he returned to the spectator stand where the people from Fair Mountain Prefecture were seated. He came before Wang Qi Ling, the County Governor of Fair Mountain Prefecture, and lowered his head. He said apologetically, "County Governor, I'm sorry to disappoint you."
Wang Qi Ling sighed. Although he was unhappy, he did not show it. "It's alright … Even if you didn't win the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties, you still won two Great Luo Pills for Fair Mountain Prefecture. It's just one less Great Luo Pill. "
"County Governor … Isn't it too early to say two Great Luo Pills? We don't even know if Duan Lingtian will show up … If he does, Yang Jin will have to settle for third place in the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties. "
An elder from Fair Mountain Prefecture said with a wry smile.
"Duan Lingtian might not show up … Even if he does, he might not be able to win the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties!"
Wang Qi Ling smiled coldly. It was as if he was 100% certain.
Whether Duan Lingtian showed up or not, Yang Jin from Fair Mountain Prefecture would not be able to win the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties.
After hearing Wang Qi Ling's words, the elders and High Officials of Fair Mountain Prefecture, as well as the group of young experts including Yang Jin, all looked at the mysterious man in the gray robe standing beside Wang Qi Ling.
"This man in the gray robe … Could he really be the person that the County Governor hired to kill Duan Lingtian?"
"I don't think so … Now, not only is the Third Prince of King Qin's Mansion here, but even King Qin himself is here. Under such circumstances, not to mention the fact that the grey-robed man might not have the chance to kill Duan Ling Tian, even if he kills Duan Ling Tian, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape death. Moreover, our Fair Mountain County will definitely be implicated.
"I don't think so either. Even if the man in the gray robe manages to escape after killing Duan Lingtian, King Qin's Mansion will definitely think that Fair Mountain Prefecture is trying to sabotage the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties … At that time, King Qin's Mansion will be extremely grateful if they don't punish Fair Mountain Prefecture. They won't even give us the rewards we deserve. "
"If the man in the gray robe was not hired by the County Governor to kill Duan Lingtian … Where did the County Governor get the confidence to say that even if Duan Lingtian showed up, he would not be able to win the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties?"
…
The group of people from Fair Mountain Prefecture discussed among themselves using Voice Transmission. They could not figure it out.
Where did the County Governor of Fair Mountain County get the confidence to say that even if Duan Ling Tian came, it would not affect Yang Jin's chances of winning second place in the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties?
"Chu Yan won?!"
"I didn't expect … I didn't expect Chu Yan to win in the end!"
"This time, Lingfeng Prefecture is in the limelight!"
"Just now, I saw it clearly … It was because Yang Jin couldn't keep his composure that Chu Yan was able to take advantage of the opportunity and beat Yang Jin with one move!"
"No matter what happened, a loss is a loss! Chu Yan is the final winner today! "
"The final winner? It's too early to say that … After all, the trump card of Nine Specters County, Duan Lingtian, hasn't shown up yet. "
"That's right. Once Duan Lingtian shows up, Duan Lingtian will definitely win the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties … If Duan Lingtian doesn't show up, Chu Yan will definitely be the final winner. "
"Whether Duan Lingtian shows up or not … Chu Yan will definitely win the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties this time! Moreover, he will be stepping on Yang Jin! "
…
A commotion broke out among the spectators.
Many County Governors of the various counties under King Qin's Mansion took the initiative to congratulate Chu Ting Xuan, the County Governor of Soaring Wind County. "County Governor Chu, congratulations … Congratulations to your son for winning the Martial Competition of the 16 Counties!"
"County Governor Chu, I used to know that you have a daughter who's as good as a man. I didn't expect your son to be more outstanding than your daughter! I'm so envious! "
"County Governor Chu, my daughter is an adult this year … Why don't we get married?"
…
Chu Ting Xuan, the County Governor of Soaring Wind Prefecture, was overjoyed when he saw the group of County Governors crowding around him.
Unlike the other spectators' seats that were bustling with noise and excitement, the County Governor of Soaring Wind Prefecture was in an uproar.
The VIP spectator seats were noisy for a while, but they fell silent again.
All of this was because of one person's words.
"Since Chu Yan won, doesn't that mean the primitive Celestial Alchemist from the Flying Dragon Sect has won as well?"
When this sentence was spread in the VIP auditorium, a group of people in the VIP auditorium also thought, "That's right."
Before the battle between Yang Jin and Chu Yan ended, there were two people in the VIP seats who had made a bet. Moreover, the Third Prince of King Qin's Estate was the middleman and the notary of the bet. Moreover, the Third Prince was in charge of the bet as well.
"Zhou An, the Vice Sect Leader of the Poison King Sect, has lost!"
"50,000 prominent Celestial Stones … That's 50,000 prominent Celestial Stones!"
…
Many pairs of eyes landed on Zhou An, the Vice Sect Leader of the Poison King Sect. His expression turned grave as he glared fiercely at Duan Ling Tian who was surrounded by the people from the Flying Dragon Sect like stars surrounding the moon.
At this moment, Duan Lingtian was no different from a hero in the eyes of the people from the Flying Dragon Sect.
"Congratulations, Revered Elder Tian Ling!"
"Revered Elder Tian Ling, you've won!"
"Consecrator Tian Ling, this time, you have helped our Flying Dragon Sect vent our anger!"
…
The elders, Revered Elders, and disciples of the Flying Dragon Sect praised Duan Lingtian.
Even Huang Guangji, the Vice Sect Leader of the Flying Dragon Sect, was beaming with joy at this moment. When he looked at Zhou An again, he felt elated.
"Humph! It's just a stroke of luck. What's there to be proud of? "
"That's right! Did he really think he could predict Chu Yan would win? What a joke! "
