Although there were fierce battles in the final stage of the Seven Prefectures Grand Banquet, it was still acceptable to the onlookers.
Now, Wang Xiong, a prodigy from the Cold Mountain Residence of the Spirit Rhinoceros Mansion, had shown amazing strength again and again.
Duan Lingtian was not the only one who was curious about Wang Xiong's true strength.
Everyone present could tell that Wang Xiong had not shown his true strength, so they were curious about his strength.
Wang Xiong's current opponent, He Yuxi, was a prodigy from the Spirit Rhinoceros Mansion's Haoshen Sect. Everyone knew that he was very strong.
At the very least, if Wang Xiong showed his strength earlier, it would be difficult for him to tie with He Yuxi, let alone win.
"They're making their moves."
As Wang Xiong and He Yuxi made their moves almost at the same time, everyone, including Duan Lingtian, stared at the field without blinking. Obviously, they did not want to miss anything.
In the beginning, Wang Xiong and He Yuxi were obviously holding back. It was more like they were testing each other.
After thirty moves, the battle gradually became more intense.
However, the two of them were evenly matched.
After another ten moves, He Yuxi seemed to realize that if this continued, his strength would be exhausted and he would not be able to challenge the person in front of him.
After all, his target was the Chunyang School's Yang Qianye.
His goal for this round was to drag Yang Qianye down from ninth place.
Before that, he had to fend off Wang Xiong's challenge and be in an invincible position before he could challenge Yang Qianye. If he lost, he would not have a chance to challenge Yang Qianye in the next round.
If he lost this round, he would become the new number eleven.
Wang Xiong took a step forward.
In the next round, Wang Xiong was still tenth. If he lost to Wang Xiong in this round, there would be no need to challenge him in the next round. He could only wait for Wang Xiong to move forward and a new number ten would appear.
"Wang Xiong, this is my full strength. If you can defeat me, show me your strength. If you can't, let's stop. There's no need to continue wasting our strength. We'll consider this a draw. "
After dozens of moves, Wang Xiong's strength was recognized by He Yuxi.
Because they didn't want to get hurt, neither he nor Wang Xiong were overly aggressive …
"Awesome!"
As for Wang Xiong, after hearing He Yuxi's words, he laughed out loud. Then, the power of the bloodline in his body erupted, displaying an even stronger strength. "Since that's the case, as you wish!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xiong attacked again. It was as if he had turned into a completely different person. His entire body was filled with an arrogant aura, as if a god had descended to the world. At this moment, his sloppy figure seemed to have become incomparably tall.
Bang!!
Wang Xiong's attack forced He Yuxi back. Wang Xiong stood where he was, his body trembling slightly.
"Pu!"
He Yuxi did not try to hide her injuries. She spat out a mouthful of blood.
If he tried to hide it, he would suffer even more severe injuries.
"I admit defeat."
As for He Yuxi, she was straightforward. After Wang Xiong further displayed his strength, even if she still had the strength to fight with Wang Xiong, she didn't continue.
If he continued to fight, he would most likely still lose in the end. Furthermore, he might even be injured further, which would affect his performance later on. There was no need to do so.
His goal was to get into the top ten, not to defeat anyone.
If he lost his chance of getting into the top ten because of a moment of anger, it would be difficult for him to answer to the sect behind him.
Whoosh!
When Wang Xiong injured He Yuxi with one attack and she took the initiative to admit defeat, an uproar broke out in the crowd. "Wang Xiong is so strong!"
"The Great Mansion's Han Mountain Residence has really hidden an expert this time!"
"I feel like … Wang Xiong's strength is not any weaker than the two Unparalleled Prides from the Great Mansion who have obtained the tokens to get into the top ten!"
…
In the past, the Unparalleled Prides from the Great Mansion represented the strongest among the younger generation in the Great Mansion.
However, now that Wang Xiong had made his move, it seemed like the Unparalleled Prides would be renamed as the Three Unparalleled Prides.
Or perhaps, Wang Xiong would suppress them and become the strongest person among the younger generation in the Great Mansion, causing the Unparalleled Prides to become history!
"How powerful!"
At this moment, not only were the people from the various major forces in the Great Mansion stunned, but even the group of prodigies from the Great Mansion's Han Mountain Residence.
The strength that Wang Xiong had displayed earlier had already shocked them.
Now, even He Yuxi, the strongest person among the younger generation in the Spirit Consonance Mansion, had been defeated a few times.
Unlike the prodigies from the Han Mountain Residence, the high-ranking officials from the Han Mountain Residence only had a joyful expression on their faces. They were not shocked at all.
It was obvious they had long known Wang Xiong had such strength.
Now that they saw Wang Xiong had made it into the top ten, they were overjoyed.
At the very least, there was hope for them to enter the Saint Land Secret Zone.
…
After defeating He Yuxi, Wang Xiong became the new number ten while He Yuxi became the new number eleven. Both of them had exchanged tokens.
Then, it should have been number ten's turn to issue a challenge. However, since Wang Xiong had already used his only chance to issue a challenge, it was now number nine's turn.
"Number nine, please enter the arena."
As Lin Donglai's voice resonated in the air, many pairs of eyes shifted to Duan Ling Tian from all directions and landed on the cold figure standing not far away from him.
Yang Qianye was the person who had obtained the number nine token.
"Yang Qianye …"
Although many of the prodigies from the Chunyang School were not familiar with Yang Qianye, they still hoped that Yang Qianye could bring glory to the Chunyang School, even though they felt that the chances were slim.
Some of them comforted Yang Qianye. "Yang Qianye, just do your best. Let Duan Lingtian fight for the top ten. "
"Yes, you don't have to feel too much pressure."
…
Under the gaze of the crowd and the persuasion of many disciples from the Chunyang School, Yang Qianye flew into the arena with an indifferent look on his face.
Then, without looking at anyone, he said indifferently, "Number five."
In an instant, everyone's eyes, which were originally focused on Yang Qianye, shifted to the young man standing at the front of the Puppet Mountain Villa in the Qingzhou State Prefecture.
Number five was the prodigy from the Puppet Mountain Villa.
"Xi Men from the Puppet Mountain Villa."
So far, everyone only knew that the young prodigy from the Puppet Mountain Villa was called Xi Men, and most of them guessed that his surname was Xi Men.
Under the gaze of the crowd, Xi Men flew into the air. His face was equally cold, and his body exuded an unapproachable aura.
As soon as Xi Men entered the arena and stood next to Yang Qianye, everyone felt that they were the same kind of people.
The two of them faced each other, but neither of them made a sound. However, their auras were locked onto each other.
Then, as soon as Lin Donglai spoke, the two of them attacked at the same time.
That was, it was an intense collision.
What happened next shocked all the spectators …
This was because they realized that Xi Men from the Puppet Mountain Villa was not the only one who had concealed his strength. Even Yang Qianye from the Chunyang School was hiding his strength!
The battle between the two of them was more intense than any of the previous battles. Both of them did not seem to have any intention of holding back. They attacked with all their might, and their divine power, which was infused with the profundities of the laws, collided violently.
In the blink of an eye, 30 moves had passed, and the two of them were evenly matched.
After 50 moves, it was still the same.
After 100 moves, the two of them seemed to have reached a tacit understanding. They retreated one after another, and the battle ended in a draw.
At this moment, not only did the leader of the Puppet Villa's group have an ugly expression, but even the Virtual Jade elder Yuan Hanjin from the Pure Sun Sect's side had an ugly expression.
As early as when Yang Qianye and Xi Men from the Puppet Mountain Villa had exchanged 50 moves, Yuan Hanjin had asked Yang Qianye and Xi Men to end the battle in a draw and not consume too much divine power.
However, Yang Qianye did not respond to him.
It was not until he contacted the leader of the Puppet Mountain Villa, and the two of them put pressure on Yang Qianye and Xi Men at the same time that the two of them stopped fighting.
Yuan Hanjin did not think it was necessary for the two of them to consume so much divine power, and the people of the Puppet Mountain Villa thought it was even more unnecessary.
Moreover, in their opinion, Yang Qianye was No.9. After this battle, it would be his turn to fight or be challenged in the next round.
However, Xi Men from the Puppet Mountain Villa, as No.5, might be challenged by No.7 next.
"No.7 is Lin Yuan from the Mystic Jade Mansion's Flaming Howl Sect!"
"Lin Yuan is very strong, and he is the foreign aid that the Flaming Howl Sect specially asked for. A prodigy like him will not take advantage of others' difficulties."
…
The people of the Puppet Mountain Villa were already comforting themselves.
After No.9 Yang Qianye and No.5 Xi Men left the stage, the prodigy with No.8 token also entered the stage. He was one of the Peerless Duo from the famous mansion.
For the time being, no one from the Chunyang School looked at the prodigy from the famous mansion.
Their eyes all fell on Yang Qianye, and their eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
Yang Qianye was so strong?
He did not even use his full strength in the previous round?
In their opinion, based on the strength that Yang Qianye had just displayed, he might not even lose to Wang Xiong, the prodigy from the famous mansion's Han Mountain Villa.
"Yang Qianye, you're amazing."
"Yang Qianye, I didn't expect you to be so strong … I thought it was impossible for you to make it to the top ten in the Seven Mansion Banquet."
"It seems that two prodigies from the Chunyang School will make it to the top ten this time!"
…
The people from the Chunyang School were in high spirits.
He Yuxi, the prodigy of the Hao Shen Sect from the Consonance Mansion, who had become the new No.11, was also looking at Yang Qianye from the Chunyang School.
His expression was unusually solemn. 'I've underestimated him … I might not be a match for him!'
Previously, he had thought that Yang Qianye was a pushover and had planned to use him as a stepping stone.
However, it seemed like he had been dreaming.
"I forfeit."
At the same time, the No.8 prodigy who had entered the stage spoke. He shocked everyone and chose to forfeit. He did not challenge anyone in front of him.
In fact, there was nothing he could do.
He could only challenge No.4, No.6, and No.7.
These three prodigies were Luo Yuan from the Autumn Leaf Sect of the Heavenly Star Mansion, Lin Yuan from the Mystic Jade Mansion's Flaming Howl Sect, and Tuoba Xiu from the Yuwen Clan of the Netherworld Mansion.
He had no chance of winning against these three prodigies.
In that case, he might as well save his strength.
