"Alright, you guessed it right. Do you think you will have a bye in the next round?"
Canyang shrugged and spread his arms to indicate that it did not matter. If Du Feng could have a bye in the next round, that would be amazing.
"That's impossible. I just hope that I can fight earlier tomorrow."
Tomorrow was the third round of the competition, and the number of contestants had decreased by half. Few of the remaining contestants had a low Cultivation Level. The one with the lowest Cultivation Level was Fu Xi. Moreover, most of the independent cultivators had already been eliminated. Even the Third Revolution and Fourth Revolution Immortal Emperor disciples were almost gone.
As such, there was a high chance that Fuxi and Canyang would bump into each other. The chances that Canyang and Du Feng would bump into each other were also quite high.
This was because most of the remaining contestants were at the ninth or peak stage of the Immortal Lord Realm. Moreover, some of them had been at the peak stage for a long time. If Du Feng met them, he would probably have a tough battle.
The reason why he was in such a hurry to fight was actually very simple. After the fight, he could leave the sky palace and go to the nameless island in the Endless Sea to visit the East Thearch and check on Xiao Hei. Since he left, it had entered a deep slumber. He did not know if it had woken up yet.
"I hope so!"
Canyang did not know what the arrangements for the third round would be, so he could not answer Du Feng now. Just like that, the two sparred for a while before returning to their respective rooms to rest.
Although cultivators would not feel sleepy, they did not tire that easily either. But for the third round tomorrow, it was necessary to rest so that they could be in peak condition.
The next morning, Du Feng and Canyang arrived at the arena. Although they had arrived very early, they realized that many people had arrived even earlier. Interestingly, not only had the contestants arrived early, but the audience had also arrived early. After all, in the third round, most of the remaining contestants were experts. Some were descendants of famous people or disciples of experienced Immortal Emperors.
The first round of the competition was already very shocking. It was actually the disciple of the Yan Emperor against the nephew of the Le Emperor. Regardless of whether he was Emperor Le's nephew or not, this title alone was enough to attract countless gazes.
This disciple of Emperor Yan was also Fu Xi's Senior Brother, and Du Feng happened to know him. It was that time when he passed by Canyang's house and encountered the hidden Shadow Killer. At that time, Du Feng had conveniently pushed the shadow assassins under the Celestial Emperor to the opposite side of the Flame Emperor. It was precisely because of this that Emperor Yan decided to accept Fu Xi as his disciple.
"Yo, this is going to be interesting. My Senior Brother is really powerful."
Fu Xi was well aware of his own capabilities. Even though he had improved, he was only at the Immortal Lord Stage 2 Cultivation Realm. Furthermore, the time he had spent with his master was too short. This Senior Brother of his was currently at the Ninth Layer of the Heavenly High Immortal realm, and he had been following the Flame Emperor for quite some time now.
As for the nephew of the Le Emperor, it did not matter if he was a real or fake nephew. Since he could represent the Le Emperor Battle Team, he definitely had some capabilities. Otherwise, Emperor Le would not have sent him.
"Is that so? Then I have to take a good look."
Initially, Du Feng had hoped that he would be the first to compete, but that was not the case. Since that was not the case, then he would take a good look at the others. After all, this was a battle between experts, and it would be beneficial for him to watch more.
These two contestants were ranked near the front. The disciple of the Yan Emperor was number 71, while the disciple of the Le Emperor was number 80. Although the numbers were not arranged according to the Cultivation Realm, it still reflected the importance of the contestants to the organizers.
"Number 71 versus Contestant Number 80. Begin."
It was already the third round of the competition, and there was no need for further introductions. The competition began immediately.
Fu Xi's Senior Brother was really an impatient person, and he went all out right from the start. The aura around his body exploded and a huge fireball was sent flying. He pushed the fireball with both hands, and it was extremely fast. As for the nephew of the Le Emperor, it was even stranger. He had suddenly disappeared from the arena.
What was going on? Seeing this, Du Feng's pupils constricted. This was because the other party had not gone around him, but had simply disappeared. Therefore, he hurriedly looked up. Under such circumstances, one would usually jump to the top to launch an attack. But when he looked up, there was only the rising sun in the clear sky, and he did not see Contestant Number 80.
"What the hell? Where did he go?"
"That's right. How could he disappear into thin air? Could he have gone to an alternate dimension?"
It was true that Immortal Lords could enter alternate dimensions, but this so-called alternate dimension was just a temporary hiding place. If a warrior with a lower Cultivation Realm saw this, he would have thought that he had really transmigrated. But against an opponent who was also at the Immortal Lord Realm, it was just a clumsy move. Using a strong attack, one could be blasted out in an instant.
The hiding method of Contestant Number 80 was obviously not that simple. This forced Du Feng to open the vertical eye in the middle of his forehead and observe with the Eye of Truth.
"Be careful...."
The Flame Emperor wanted to warn her disciple, but was stopped by Empress Le. This time, she used all her strength to stop him. Both of their Cultivation Realms were about the same, and neither could do anything to the other. However, the Flame Emperor's information could not be sent in. After all, it was the nephew of Empress Le competing with the disciple of the Flame Emperor. She could not let her disciple suffer.
Eh? Du Feng used the Eye of Truth to discover a problem. The missing Contestant Number 80 was actually hiding under the arena. More accurately, he was inside the arena. Not only was he hiding in the arena, but he was also walking along the arena.
One should know that the arena here was made of thick metal. Even those who knew escape techniques would not be able to escape. But this person was very special. He could actually hide in the metal. If that was the case, would he be able to pass through if a sword was used to slash him?
Du Feng did not have an answer for now, but he knew that Fu Xi's senior brother was in trouble. This was because Contestant Number 80 had already walked below him, but he had not discovered him yet. An opponent who could hide in metal was too terrifying.
If not for the Eye of Truth, Du Feng would not have thought that such a thing could happen. The arena of the Sky Palaces was indeed filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons. It seemed like he had to be more careful in the following matches. If he was not careful, he could lose the match or even lose his life.
Although Du Feng saw it, he could not warn Fu Xi's senior brother. This was because his voice could not reach the arena at all. Moreover, Emperor Le and the Yellow Emperor were blocking it. Therefore, he could only watch as Contestant Number 80 suddenly attacked from below the arena.
