Grandpa Lan wanted Du Feng not to be in the top three of the leaderboard, just in case. Fourth or fifth place was not a bad idea. Although he could not get the Emperor Breaking Pill, he could still get good weapons and armor. He could also earn some reputation.
"I want to go. I have to go."
Du Feng said that he had to win the competition and get into the top three. He also had to go and watch the Sky Gate Challenge. Not only did it affect whether or not he could save Alchemy King, but it also affected whether or not he could ascend to the Sky Realm. He could not be afraid just because something had happened.
"Ah!"
Grandpa Lan sighed. He knew he could not stop Du Feng. Once this child made up his mind, no one could stop him unless he was dead.
Fortunately, Zhuo Dong Lai did not come to the Black Dragon River because of his identity. His two students were killed, and even their souls did not escape. So, no one noticed that Du Feng had reached the late stage of the fifth level. On the way back, he had Grandpa Lan to protect him, so no one noticed.
"Don't go out for a few days. Your competition is coming up soon."
Du Feng had already fought one round in the mixed competition, so he had time to go to the Black Dragon River. But very soon, his second round of competition would be arranged. If the contestant did not show up in time, he would automatically forfeit.
"Yes, I will remember."
The generals within the white bone banner had all reached the ninth level of the Ultimate Emperor Realm, but none of them had reached the peak of the ninth level. If all the generals reached the peak of the ninth level, they could, in theory, unleash the power of a perfect Ultimate King Realm cultivator. Du Feng did not want to give up, but there was nothing he could do.
When he entered the Black Dragon River, Zhuo Dong Lai already had his eyes on him. He had even sent two students after him. If he went there again, he would not be able to make it out alive. And he did not know if the little devils were still there. The second round of the competition was coming up soon, so Du Feng could not risk going down the river again. It wouldn't be worth it if he got injured and affected the competition.
This was also good. Du Feng thought that things could not always be perfect. If the generals within the white bone banner were all at the peak of the Ultimate Emperor Realm, then they would be able to unleash the power of a peak Ultimate Emperor Realm cultivator. In that case, he would inevitably have to rely on the White Bone Banner during the competition. At that time, he would not be able to display his full strength.
"I reckon that you'll be fighting against Koi Boy in the next round."
Seeing that Du Feng was in a good state, Grandpa Lan began to talk to him about the competition. According to Zhuo Donglai's personality, he would have arranged for Du Feng to fight someone he knew. Because the later matches were more important, no one wanted to lose. Koi Boy was representing the Blue Mansion in this competition. Winning or losing would affect Grandpa Lan's reputation.
If Du Feng and Koi Boy were to fight, it would be a loss to the Blue Residence regardless of who lost. Moreover, Du Feng couldn't be too ruthless against someone he knew. It would naturally affect his performance. For a fighter like him, the more intense the competition, the better. That was the only way he could improve his strength.
After hearing this, Du Feng was in a difficult position. Koi Boy was the treasure of the Blue House, and he had limitless potential at such a young age. If something bad happened to him, it would be unfair to Grandpa Lan and Miss Lan. Miss Lan usually treated Koi Boy like a little brother, so it would be difficult for Du Feng to fight him.
"Don't be soft. Do your best!"
Grandpa Lan's next words shocked Du Feng. What did he mean? He wanted him to fight with all his strength. After Grandpa Lan explained the reason, he understood what was going on.
"Okay, I know what to do."
Du Feng memorized Grandpa Lan's words, and he was even more confident about the competition. Zhuo Donglai was a cunning man, and Grandpa Lan was not simple.
A few days passed quickly, and it was Du Feng's turn to compete. But today was not his first match. The person in front of him was Shanghai Yun. And Shangguan Yun's opponent was actually Blue Jade Child. What was going on? Zhuo Donglai, that old fox, changed the order.
Grandpa Lan was so angry that his lips were trembling. Zhuo Donglai had come up with the same excuse again. It was just that some players couldn't make it at the last minute, so the order of the matches had been adjusted. But anyone with a discerning eye could see that he had planned to let Shangguan Yun use the Blue Jade Child as practice.
Blue Jade Child was very talented, and his Cultivation was higher than Shanghai Yun's. But he was still a child, and his mind was not yet mature. If Shanghai Yun dared to go on stage, it meant she was prepared. She must have prepared something to counter Blue Jade Child.
"Big Brother, be careful."
Koi Boy was wearing a red dudou. He walked to the bottom of the stage and looked up to talk to Blue Jade Child.
"Pfft. Just take care of yourself."
The Blue Jade Child did not appreciate his kindness at all. After more than a month, His Cultivation had risen from the seventh level of the Ultimate King Realm to the eighth level. His power had increased a lot. Along the way, he had never lost a single battle. In his eyes, human martial artists were just like that. No matter how strong they were, they could not withstand a single blow.
Blue Jade Child was like a piece of unpolished jade. He absorbed the essence of the sun and moon and became a baby. Then, he jumped out of a rock. His body was very hard. It was not just his skin and bones that were tough. His blood vessels, tendons, and organs were all very strong. Even a Magic-Class weapon could not hurt him.
Because of this, the Blue Jade Child had won very easily all the way. He didn't care about anyone at all. Other sharp swords and giant axes were like tickles to him. He could easily break his opponent's weapon with a flick of his arm. Those overbearing combat skills were just like a sneeze and a breeze.
"There's going to be a good show. I wonder if Beauty Shangguan will win."
"I think that Blue Jade Child will most likely win. He won't be injured at all."
The spectators discussed animatedly, guessing who would win and who would lose in this match. Most people felt that Blue Jade Child had a higher chance of winning. Shanghai Yun's performance was not bad, but she was made of flesh and blood. As for the Blue Jade Child, he had a jade body that was indestructible.
Previously, there were warriors like Shanghai Yun who were good at using fire. However, it was useless after burning him for a long time. Blue Jade Child stood there motionlessly, letting his opponent's fire skills burn him. Not to mention that there were no injuries on his body, even the blue dudou he wore was not damaged.
"Sigh, Blue Jade is too disobedient."
