Within the Heavenly Star Realm, as the losers left, the small spaces also disappeared.
Currently, there were a total of 251 spaces in the Heavenly Star Realm. One of them was the battle space, which was the largest and wouldn't change. The other two hundred and fifty small spaces could accommodate 250 participating geniuses.
This was the third round of the second stage of the Heaven Youth List Tournament.
Other than Chu Mu, most of the First Sky of Nirvana Realm geniuses were eliminated. Those who remained were at least at the Late First Sky of Nirvana Realm.
To be able to cultivate to the Late First Sky of Nirvana Realm within a hundred years and mainly relying on one's own talent was indeed shocking. They were all first-rate geniuses.
Now, these geniuses were gathered here to compete for the one and only shortlisted spot.
"It's a pity that Chu Mu is the God's Son of Sword Sacred Hall." The Dark Night Emperor sighed.
Qin Zhenyu's eyes flashed with light.
He was the last and only disciple of the Dark Night Emperor. His talent was extraordinary and he had always been proud of it. Now that he heard the Dark Night Emperor regretting that Chu Mu was the God's Son of Sword Sacred Hall, which meant that if Chu Mu wasn't the God's Son of Sword Sacred Hall, he would definitely have accepted Chu Mu as his disciple. This made the proud and self-centered Qin Zhenyu very uncomfortable.
Because of the Dark Night Emperor's words, a thorn was buried in his heart.
…
"Brother Chu, please enlighten me."
Chu Mu's opponent was a genius from a small force. His cultivation was at the Late First Sky of Nirvana Realm, which was above Chu Mu. To be able to have such cultivation in a small force within a hundred years, other than having a fortuitous encounter, his talent was also extraordinary.
His background wasn't high and his background was ordinary. Now that he was in a small force, it was far from being comparable to the Five Elements Sword Sect. Therefore, he didn't dare to participate in the conflict between the disciples of the Dark Night Sword Sect and the Five Elements Sword Sect. He didn't even dare to imagine the conflict between the disciples of the Dark Night Sword Sect and the Five Elements Sword Sect. He was afraid that if he was accidentally involved, he would be crushed.
Thus, no matter if it was the disciples of the Nightdark Sword Sect, the Five Elemental Sword Sect, or the disciples of the other great powers, he maintained a trace of due respect, yet he wouldn't flatter them. After all, he himself was a genius that wasn't inferior to the other geniuses, and he had his own pride and persistence.
However, he respected Chu Mu very much. Although Chu Mu's cultivation was not as high as his, Chu Mu's strength was far greater than his. Chu Mu's performance in the Azure Sky Empty World was even more powerful.
Chu Mu would never give too much of a blow to those who respected him. Thus, after fighting with this genius, he allowed him to display his sword skills to his heart's content and indirectly gave him some pointers. Only then was he able to defeat him.
Of course, the other party wasn't a disciple of the Five Element Sword Sect, so it was impossible for Chu Mu to be too devoted. Even so, it caused the other party to feel even more grateful.
This scene caused many of the geniuses who knew that they had no chance of obtaining the only spot to secretly think that if they fought against Chu Mu, they would at least be able to obtain better tempering.
In this round, Lin Yi and Lin Haichao advanced to the next round. However, several disciples of the Five Element Sword Sect were defeated by powerful opponents.
In the fourth round, there were a total of 125 participants. In theory, there would be 62 matches, and one person would get a bye. However, that was not the case. This time, there was no strict division of the rounds. The purpose was only to select the strongest person.
In this round, Chu Mu's opponent was a genius at the early stage of the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm. In terms of absolute strength, he did not have any advantage. Moreover, because Chu Mu had a Body Transformation Realm cultivation, he fell into a disadvantageous position. In the end, he was defeated by Chu Mu and was eliminated. Chu Mu advanced to the next round.
In this round, the ten geniuses at the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm all advanced to the next round. Lin Yi also advanced to the next round. As for Lin Haichao, his luck was not so good. His opponent was a genius at the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm. In the case of a great disparity in cultivation, he was defeated and eliminated after a battle.
After the sixty-second round of the competition, in theory, one person should be given a bye. However, this was not the case. This person was immediately arranged to fight against a genius who had successfully advanced to the next round.
At this point in the competition, the rounds began to show signs of being disrupted. However, this did not matter.
The tight rounds of the competition were carried out one after another. There was no time to rest at all. After one round ended, the next round began immediately. It was like a wave after wave. It was simply one wave after another.
Once again, it was Chu Mu's turn to compete.
His opponent was a genius at the peak of the First Sky of Nirvana Realm.
This person was also a genius disciple of one of the ten overlord forces. This force was older than the Five Element Sword Sect and had a deeper foundation. Therefore, although Chu Mu's performance was extraordinary in the previous rounds, this person did not have the heartfelt respect of others. He was very arrogant.
Knowing that Chu Mu's strength was very strong, he did not test the waters. Instead, he used a killing move.
With a swing of the sword, a sword light rose up like a crescent moon, emitting a faint white light. Each ray of light was a powerful sword aura. The sword aura shone and filled the entire battle space, confusing one's line of sight. The crescent moon, on the other hand, cut open the dark void and charged towards Chu Mu.
This move was obviously a unique skill.
His first move was a unique skill. This also showed how much this person valued Chu Mu. Previously, he had used this unique skill to defeat a genius from a small force whose cultivation had reached the early stage of the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm.
This person's strength was not weak. However, compared to Chu Mu, the gap was still very obvious.
The Autumn Water Long Sky Sword pierced through the sky. Vaguely, everyone seemed to see a pool of autumn water appear in the battle space and spread out in all directions.
The chilliness spread out and seemed to penetrate beyond the Heavenly Star Boundary, passing through every starship.
"Autumn Water Long Sky. Chu Mu has already grasped the essence of this move." A Sword Saint nodded and praised.
In the eyes of a Sword Saint rank expert, Autumn Water Long Sky was but a very normal sword technique. With a single glance, one could understand the profoundness within. However, the Autumn Water Long Sky that Chu Mu used deeply grasped the essence within and even surpassed it. It had already surpassed the limits of the original Autumn Water Long Sky Sword Technique and reached a new height.
This required one to have completely grasped this sword technique, to have extraordinary attainments in sword techniques, and to have a super high comprehension of sword techniques. Only by combining these three factors could one go beyond the original sword technique.
If one only grasped the sword technique thoroughly, it would be useless. For a swordsman with a little talent, he could achieve this level of sword technique with hard work.
The Autumn Water Long Sky Sword pierced through the sun and moon. The crescent moon shattered and the moonlight dissipated. Chu Mu's sword swept across his opponent's neck.
Chu Mu had killed his opponent in one strike. His battle caused another sensation.
"This boy's performance is always unexpected."
"He's too straightforward."
Some people agreed with Chu Mu and praised him. Naturally, there would be people who disliked him and mocked him.
But no matter what, Chu Mu's attention couldn't be denied.
This time, Lin Yi still won and continued to compete.
In the blink of an eye, there were only thirty people left in the Heavenly Star Realm.
Those who remained were either at the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm or the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm. Moreover, they were at least at the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm late stage. However, Chu Mu was an exception. The only exception was that his cultivation was at the First Sky of Nirvana Realm early stage.
Now, only Chu Mu and Lin Yi were left among the disciples of the Five Elements Sword Sect.
This time, Chu Mu's opponent was Lin Yi. It seemed like they were going to kill each other.
"How could this be?"
"Why is Senior Brother Chu fighting with Senior Brother Lin?"
The disciples of the Five Elements Sword Sect were very anxious.
"Haha, a dog biting another dog." The disciples of the Dark Night Sword Sect laughed. Seeing that Chu Mu and Lin Yi were going to kill each other, they were very happy.
"Junior Brother Chu, I didn't expect to fight with you." Lin Yi smiled bitterly.
"As long as it continues, it will happen sooner or later." Chu Mu was very indifferent. It didn't matter who his opponent was.
"To be able to fight with Junior Chu, I naturally look forward to it. However, this opportunity …" Lin Yi said and muttered to himself. His eyes suddenly became resolute and bright. He sternly said to Chu Mu: "Junior Chu, this time, there is only one spot. I hope that person is you."
Chu Mu didn't answer, but nodded slightly.
"I'm dying of laughter. As long as you say one sentence, it will be Chu Mu's. Then I'll just say it's mine."
Lin Yi's words caused many people to laugh at him, but some people also thought about it.
"I admit defeat." Lin Yi suddenly said loudly.
The battle here could be decided by life and death, or could take the initiative to admit defeat. No matter which one it was, as long as he lost, he would be eliminated.
Lin Yi was eager to fight fiercely with Chu Mu. This was a very good opportunity. He didn't have to worry about being killed. But at the same time, Lin Yi was worried that if he used all his strength, he would force Chu Mu to use some of his trump cards.
The reason why trump cards were trump cards was that they were unknown. The fewer people knew, the better. Maybe in the later battle, Chu Mu would have to show those trump cards. But now, he was keeping them, at least, his opponents didn't know the details.
As long as Chu Mu continued to win, his opponents would definitely be geniuses at the Third Sky of Nirvana Realm. Lin Yi felt that Chu Mu didn't have much hope to win with the difference of two Sky. One more trump card meant one more hope.
With this thought, Lin Yi suppressed the excitement in his heart and took the initiative to admit defeat.
Lin Yi took the initiative to admit defeat, which was expected by some people, but also unexpected by many people.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin." Chu Mu said.
Lin Yi smiled at Chu Mu and made an encouraging gesture. After that, he was sent out by the power of the Heavenly Star Realm. Chu Mu won without fighting, successfully advanced and returned to his own small space.
After this round of the competition, there were still ten people left. Except for Chu Mu, the weakest cultivation was at the peak of the Second Sky of Nirvana Realm.
Everyone gathered their spirits one after another because the remaining ten or so people were all extremely powerful. They were finally going to fight with each other. It was definitely going to be extremely intense and brilliant. It was not to be missed.
Both of them were immediately selected by the power of the Heavenly Star Realm. At the same time, they disappeared from the small space and appeared in the battle space.
