Due to the Jade Emperor's desire for victory, Song Zhong, as a local contestant, was able to enjoy the benefits of being the host. There were two obvious points. Firstly, his opponent was Fairy Green Vine. Compared to the other two, she was the weakest. Secondly, Song Zhong's match was the second round. He could watch the fight between Sky Stealing Rat and the silly boy before starting the competition. This allowed Song Zhong to keep some secrets. Of course, this was only a possibility, and the possibility was not high. But sometimes, a small possibility could affect the entire situation. Therefore, it was a little convenient.
After resting for a day, the first round of the top four finally began under everyone's attention.
The referee for the first round was the Fire Lord. As an important official of the Heavenly Court, his appearance attracted a round of cheers. To him, this was definitely a great honor.
Although Sky Stealing Rat was one of the Black Tortoise Heavenly Emperor's people and had some conflicts with Zhu Rong Tian, even so, he did not think that the Fire Lord would side with the silly boy in this competition. As the leader of Zhu Rong Tian, Fire Star Master couldn't afford to lose face like this. The more important the competition was, the more careful he would be. He would rather side with the sky-stealing mouse than let the others have a chance to catch him.
After Sky Pilfering Mouse and the silly boy met the Fire Lord, the Fire Lord warmly praised the two of them and reminded them not to be heavy-handed. Then, he directly announced the start of the competition.
Sky Stealing Rat had a shifty look on his face and looked like he deserved a beating. After he turned around, he put on a fake smile and said to the silly boy, "Aiya, Fellow Daoist, we're brothers, it's really fate that brought us together!"
"Hehe, yes, yes, fate!" The silly boy giggled. Although this guy looked silly, his eyes were filled with shrewdness. No one would really think that this guy was a fool.
Sky Stealing Rat obviously would not fall for it. He smiled and said, "My friend, since we are so fated, isn't it bad to fight and kill?"
"Hmm?" When the silly boy heard this, he was stunned. He couldn't help but ask, "If we don't fight and kill, how do we determine the winner?"
"Haha, actually, we don't have to fight hard to determine the victor!" Heaven Stealing Mouse laughed mysteriously.
"Oh? What does that mean? "The silly boy asked in confusion.
"It's simple!" Heavenstealing Rat bluntly said, "As long as you are willing to join our Xuanwu Army, besides the generous treatment, this competition will be considered your victory!"
Upon hearing Heavenstealing Rat's words, the surrounding audience could not help but exclaim in shock, secretly cursing, 'Shameless, shameless, to actually use such a method to rope people in?'
Among them, the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West were extremely regretful. They couldn't help but think to themselves, 'We miscalculated, we miscalculated! If I had known this would happen, I would have let Fairy Green Vine fight with Sky-Stealing Rat. At least I wouldn't have to worry about Fairy Green Vine being poached by the Xuanwu Army!
Almost everyone present was certain that the silly boy would definitely agree to this condition, because the Heavenstealing Rat was not an ordinary golden immortal, but a formidable opponent. From afar, he could steal Dharmic powers, and from close range, he could steal one's internal organs. The silly boy might not be able to defeat such a freak. And now, as long as he nodded, not only would victory be at his fingertips, but he would also receive the generous treatment provided by the Xuanwu Army. This was definitely killing many birds with one stone.
However, to everyone's surprise, the silly boy shook his head and said, "No, no, it's too boring to win without fighting. Let's fight to determine the victor, shall we?"
"What?" Heavenstealing Rat could not believe his ears. He could not help but cry out, "You're saying that you'd rather fight to the death with me than agree to my condition and join the Xuanwu Army?"
"Yes!" The silly boy nodded without hesitation. "That's what I'm saying!"
"Haha!" Hearing this, the hearts of the various forces that were hanging in the air calmed down. As long as this person did not belong to anyone, they still had a chance!
When Heavenstealing Rat heard this, he was instantly enraged. He did not expect this kid to not give him any face. This was not only looking down on him, but also looking down on the Xuanwu Army! To reject the olive branch extended by the Xuanwu Army in front of so many people, how could the Xuanwu Army face others in the future?
Heavenstealing Rat had originally been unwilling to give up this victory, but for the benefit of the Xuanwu Army, he had no choice but to sacrifice himself against his will. But he had not expected that his sacrifice would be exchanged for naked humiliation. How could he endure this?
Enraged, Heavenstealing Rat laughed in anger. "Good, good, good. You've got guts. Since you refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, then don't blame me for being vicious and merciless and beating you to the ground!"
The silly boy patted his chest and laughed. "Haha, sure. As long as this Three-inch Nail of yours has the ability, feel free to fight. I'm not afraid of a fight, but I'm afraid of breaking your little hand!"
Because Heavenstealing Rat was short, it was taboo for others to call him Three-inch Nail. But today, this silly boy had called him that in public, causing the surrounding spectators to roar with laughter. This thoroughly infuriated Heavenstealing Rat.
Heavenstealing Rat's face turned red, and he did not waste any more words. He directly charged over and said, "Since that's the case, then die for me!"
Facing the enraged Heavenstealing Rat, the silly boy really did not take him seriously. He did not dodge at all, puffing out his chest and allowing him to beat him up.
It had to be said that this silly boy's defensive power was indeed abnormal to the point of death. During the Martial Arts Exhibition, no matter what opponent he encountered, he never dodged or blocked. He allowed the opponent's various attacks to hit his body, but he did not receive the slightest bit of damage.
It was also because of this perverse defense that he looked down on the thin and small Heavenstealing Rat and allowed him to hit his chest with his little hands.
The next moment, Heavenstealing Rat quickly scurried back. There was a ball of golden soil in his hand that still had traces of liquid. A powerful earth energy radiated from it, and all the immortals within hundreds of thousands of li could clearly feel it.
"Ah? It's actually an Innate Earth Spirit. Kid, you're an Innate Earth Spirit? "Heavenstealing Rat's face was filled with surprise as he laughed wildly." Haha, I've struck gold this time! "
Compared to Heavenstealing Rat's surprise, the silly boy was in so much pain that he wished he was dead. He clutched his chest and screamed, "Ah! It hurts, I feel like I've lost a piece of flesh in my body! "
Seeing this scene, all the immortals present were shocked. They had made countless guesses about this mysterious silly boy, but they had never been able to confirm his original form. They did not expect that today, he would be discovered by Heavenstealing Rat.
What was an Innate Earth Spirit? It was the essence of the earth element that existed before Pangu split heaven and earth. After Pangu split heaven and earth, this thing could be considered extinct, and it was almost impossible to find it again. They did not expect that this silly boy was actually an Innate Earth Spirit left behind from ancient times. No wonder he had such a perverse defense!
What the Innate Earth Spirit emitted was the Qi of Thick Earth. Just the Qi of Thick Earth itself had astonishing defense, not to mention this Innate Earth Spirit that emitted the Qi of Thick Earth.
After discovering the silly boy's original form, not only was Heavenstealing Rat indescribably excited, even the other immortals were incomparably surprised, their eyes shining with greed. Innate Earth Spirit was not an ordinary material, but a super material that could be used to refine Innate treasures. The Wutu Apricot Yellow Flag in the hands of Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning was refined from Innate Earth, and its power was boundless!
Looking at this silly boy's size, if he was refined, it was not impossible to create another Wutu Apricot Yellow Flag.
And to Heavenstealing Rat, this was an extremely rare opportunity. With his Sky-Stealing Sun-Swapping ability, he could reveal more of the Innate Earth Spirit on this silly boy. Even if he could only steal a small portion, he could ask the Black Tortoise Celestial Emperor to help him refine an Innate Spirit Treasure. That was a treasure that most Chaos Golden Immortals did not have!
Thinking of this, Heavenstealing Rat's eyes turned red. He casually put away that piece of Innate Earth Spirit, and then pounced on the silly boy again. At the same time, he laughed sinisterly. "Boy, you don't know how to appreciate favors. Watch me steal you clean!"
As he spoke, Heavenstealing Rat's hands were about to touch the silly boy's chest. With his abnormal speed, the silly boy's clumsy body would not be able to dodge no matter what.
Just as everyone thought that the silly boy would once again have a piece of meat stolen by Heavenstealing Rat, unexpectedly, the silly boy roared, "Go to hell!"
As the silly boy's voice sounded, a golden light as bright as the sun was suddenly released from the silly boy's body. At the same time, an extremely heavy aura rose with it. Song Zhong, who was tens of thousands of miles away, felt his body become heavy, as if a mountain was pressing down on him. One could imagine how Heavenstealing Rat, who was close at hand, felt!
Heavenstealing Rat was almost pressed down by this pressure. He immediately knew that the situation was bad and hurriedly wanted to retreat. Unfortunately, everything was too late. Just as Heavenstealing Rat was retreating with all his strength, a golden whip flew out of the light and ruthlessly lashed at Heavenstealing Rat.
Everyone only saw a flash of golden light, and then Heavenstealing Rat screamed miserably and was sent flying thousands of miles away. After landing on the ground, he rolled for an unknown distance before stopping. At this time, he no longer looked like a human.
Both of Heavenstealing Rat's arms were hanging down softly like noodles. His entire body was covered in blood, especially his chest and lower abdomen, which were all sunken in. The bones at his waist had all turned into powder! And this was only the result of him being slightly grazed by the golden light. Because of his beautiful and swift movement technique, he had avoided most of the power!
Seeing this scene, all the Immortals were shocked. One had to know that although Heavenstealing Rat's physical body was relatively weak, his resistance to Five Elements Dharma spells was abnormally strong. However, even he was lightly swept into this state by the golden light, which showed how terrifying the power of the golden light was.
At this time, everyone noticed that there was a whip in the silly boy's hand. This whip was very inconspicuous. It was about three to four feet long and as thick as a finger. It looked like a toy that a child casually picked up, but this simple whip emitted a shocking and terrifying aura.
