Early in the morning, the whole Hidden Dragon Ancient City was boiling.
Looking down from the sky, one could see countless streams of people moving towards the battling field in the central area. Right then, there was still some time before the battle began.
"Ye Chen, just try your best. Don't put too much pressure on yourself." In the yard, everyone from the Sky Cloud Martial School had already finished washing up. Luo Xinglie said to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen nodded, "Leader, don't worry. What should be mine will be mine." Since he had joined the Hidden Dragon Rank competitions, Ye Chen's goal was to be the champion. It was very simple.
"Alright, let's go!"
…
On the battling field, everyone's eyes were all on the top ten seeded contestants. The rest of the young generation had become the background.
"The thirteen judges are indeed very good. The top ten seeded contestants had not lost a single time in the previous sixty-two battles. There is no doubt that they will be in the top ten this year."
"I thought Qian Yun would have the chance to be in the top ten. Who knew that he had not only lost to the top young warriors, but also to Gu Youyun, Ye Chen, Tuo Baku and Murong Qingcheng. He would not be able to be in the top ten at all. It is the first time that a disciple from the Sunset Martial School has not been in the top ten!"
"What else can we do? This year's young generation is just too shocking. Qian Yun's power is a bit weak after all. He is not as powerful as the head disciple of the Sunset Martial School. "
While everyone was discussing, the first beam of sunlight shone over from the east and landed on the battling platform.
The head judge stood up, "The sixty-third round of the battles begins now."
The first battle was not a battle between top young warriors. It was the third night from the Moon Pavilion and Wei Renjie.
The third night was tall and skinny, with a normal appearance. He looked to be around twenty-two or twenty-three years old, and his power was much higher than the fourth night.
After dozens of rounds, the third night had barely won against Wei Renjie.
The second battle was also not a battle between top young warriors, which made everyone a bit disappointed.
It was not until the sixth battle that two top young warriors got on the stage. They were Tuo Baku and Gu Youyun.
Tuo Baku's background was mysterious, and no one knew where he came from. In all of the previous battles, his defense was very famous. Even the head disciple of the Sky Demon Martial School, Mo Yan, could not break through his defense. Towards the end, Mo Yan had made up his mind and tried to take out Tuo Baku's eyes. Unfortunately, he had still lost to Tuo Baku, which made the audience have a new understanding of Tuo Baku's defense.
As the descendant of the Stone King, Gu Youyun was not as bright as Sikong Sheng, and her talent was not that amazing either. However, the Stone King's bloodline had brought her a huge potential, which allowed her to catch up and become one of the top young warriors. With her Stone King Body Protective Fist Art, she had beaten Qian Yun, who was a threat to her, and made it into the top ten.
The battle between the two had aroused countless people's interest. Everyone wanted to know which one was more powerful, Tuo Baku's defensive martial art or Gu Youyun's Stone King Body Protective Fist Art.
"Please enlighten me!" Gu Youyun was still polite as she clasped her fists.
Tuo Baku laughed, "Why would there be so many rules in a martial competition? But, your power is not bad, and so is your Stone King Body Protective Fist Art. Take one of my fist attacks first."
Without performing his Savage Godly Fist Art, Tuo Baku threw out a brutal fist attack with only his own power and zhen Qi. The fist power was like a mountain.
Boom!
Gu Youyun threw back a fist attack. The two were evenly matched.
"Alright! Now, I would like to try your ace attack and see how powerful the Stone King's Anger is." Tuo Baku jumped into the air and threw out his Ruin Eighteen Fist Attacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Ruin Eighteen Fist Attacks were one of the ace attacks of the Ruin Godly Fist Art. Each movement did not carry any fancy tricks; it was all about brutal power and overwhelming aura. There were only two ways to break the Ruin Eighteen Fist Attacks; one would be to use an even more powerful power to shatter Tuo Baku's fist aura, and the other would be to use an extreme technique to break it. Both of them were extremely difficult. Tuo Baku's fist art was already powerful and heavy, and it would be impossible for Gu Youyun to surpass him in this aspect with her current power. But, the extreme technique would be even more difficult, since once the power reached a certain level, the warrior would have the power to beat everything. Under such circumstances, the technique would have to reach another level in order to be able to break the Ruin Eighteen Fist Attacks. Obviously, Gu Youyun had not reached the requirement in both areas. Therefore, she had to perform the Stone King's exclusive martial art, the Stone King Body Protective Fist Art, in order to strengthen her protective zhen Qi.
Tuo Baku's fist aura was getting more and more powerful, more and more brutal. Qian Yun's Thunder Four Movement and Sunset Five Movement were like a kid holding a wooden hammer in front of him.
"So powerful!"
In Gu Youyun's eyes, Tuo Baku was like a mountain, a wild mountain that was rushing towards her at a high speed. Not to mention fighting back, she could barely even defend. Her Qi and blood had been shaken by the fist aura, and her zhen Qi was boiling, almost exploding out of her body.
"The sixteenth punch!"
Tuo Baku threw out a punch. The air was torn apart, bringing up a series of booming sounds.
Crack!
Her protective zhen Qi layer was about to shatter. Gu Youyun bit on her lower lip, trying her best to defend. She thought to herself, 'Just a little bit more, just a little bit more. The more pressure I get, the more powerful the Stone King Anger will be.'
"The seventeenth punch!"
A dragon roar and tiger roar was heard. Tuo Baku's punch seemed to have brought Gu Youyun back to the ancient times, where danger was lurking everywhere.
Boom!
Gu Youyun's protective zhen Qi layer had finally been shattered. However, by then, her fist aura had already accumulated to its limit. The Stone King Anger took the opportunity to explode. It had not only shattered Tuo Baku's fist power and aura, but had also been thrown back along with the Stone King Anger.
Facing this horrifying punch, Tuo Baku's protective zhen Qi layer had been shattered, and his body had been blown away.
"Testing the attack with his own body … This Tuo Baku's defense is indeed powerful." Ye Chen was extremely observant. Although the power of Tuo Baku's Savage Eighteen Fist Art had not been reduced by much, its speed had obviously been reduced. Plus, the power of the seventeenth punch and the sixteenth punch were almost the same. He must have saved some of his power. Otherwise, Gu Youyun would have been defeated by the seventeenth punch, and there would be no chance for her to perform the Stone King Anger. Tuo Baku had done this because he wanted to see how powerful the Stone King Anger was.
Lynch was surprised, "You mean, Tuo Baku did it on purpose?" He was extremely talented in blade arts, but he was slightly weaker in other areas.
Before Ye Chen could answer, Xu Jing said, "It is not entirely on purpose. Gu Youyun's protective zhen Qi layer and the Stone King Anger are indeed very powerful. Tuo Baku did not underestimate her. When he performed the seventeenth punch, he had already prepared to defend, using all of his power to block out the power of the Stone King Anger."
Stepping on the dark blue light wall, Tuo Baku flipped his body and landed on the ground. He looked down at his chest, where his clothes had already been torn apart, and there was a light fist mark on his muscles. It was black and blue. He could not help but praise, "Impressive! Luckily, I had prepared my defense beforehand."
Seeing that the Stone King Anger could not do anything to Tuo Baku, Gu Youyun let out a sigh of relief and said, "You win!"
Tuo Baku chuckled as the dragon-shaped shadow outside his body jumped towards Gu Youyun. After devouring a part of the dragon fountain Qi, it had grown to twenty-six meters, which was even bigger than Ye Chen.
The two got off the stage, and the seventh battle began immediately.
…
"The eleventh battle, Murong Qingcheng against Bing Ling!"
Just as the head judge finished his sentence, a huge commotion came from the audience seating. Among the top ten seeded contestants, there were only three young girls: Murong Qingcheng, Bing Ling and Gu Youyun. Gu Youyun's temperament and appearance were not as good as the other two, so naturally, her popularity was not as high as theirs. Murong Qingcheng was one of the top two beauties of the Black Dragon Empire. Although she was wearing a light veil that covered half of her face, only the shape of her face was enough to shake people's hearts. Combined with her mysterious and noble temperament, she had won over countless young warriors. Bing Ling's temperament was completely different from Murong Qingcheng. The former was mysterious, while the latter was cold. Her delicate facial features and cold aura combined together, making her look like a snow lotus that grew in an ice mountain, cold and elegant.
Both of them had reached the top young warriors' level, and their appearances were also extremely beautiful. Once they got onto the stage, they had caused a huge commotion.
"Bing Ling is one of the top young warriors from the older generation. Murong Qingcheng is not really a rising star, but she has also just started to rise this year. I wonder who will be more powerful."
"It does not matter who wins or loses. Among the young generation of girls in the South Rudra Region, they are the top two. If I could get their attention, I would be willing to lose ten years of my life."
"If you are willing, why would they not be willing? But you are right. Murong Qingcheng and Bing Ling could be considered as the top two martial geniuses in the South Rudra Region. In the recent generation of the true spirit continent, I think they are only second to Xuanhou. "
"Xuanhou is not someone that a country or a region could compare with. She is not only the No.1 martial genius in the past thousand years, but also the No.1 beauty of the true spirit continent. Compared to her, there would be a huge gap. Even martial geniuses like Sikong Sheng would be beaten by her. No one would be able to call themselves the No.1."
"The No.1 martial genius in a thousand years … She would not be inferior even in the ancient era. Xuanhou had indeed made all the other martial geniuses feel hopeless. I wonder who would be able to break this record."
"Alright, the competition is about to start."
Xuanhou's name was known by everyone in the true spirit continent. As long as someone talked about top martial geniuses, people would subconsciously compare her to them. Everyone watching the competition was no exception.
Shoo!
Murong Qingcheng's body flashed, her purple clothes fluttering in the air. She disappeared from where she was standing like a bubble. When she reappeared, she was already on the stage.
In front of her, Bing Ling's body was surrounded by a freezing cold qi. Wherever she went, the water yuan qi in the air would be frozen, turning into tiny ice crystals that fell onto the ground.
"Glacier Break!"
Feeling the pressure brought by Murong Qingcheng, Bing Ling attacked first. She performed the ace movement of her Ice Break Fist Art.
Pop!
When the freezing fist power was still ten meters away from Murong Qingcheng, it suddenly exploded.
"Sky Demon Catch!"
The Sky Demon Power Field gathered on her palm. Murong Qingcheng took a step forward, grabbing towards Bing Ling, who was dozens of meters away.
Crack!
The stage was shattered, but Bing Ling managed to dodge it in time. While she was in mid-air, she made a grabbing gesture in the air with her right hand. An ice blade that was made of freezing zhen Qi was thrown out.
Murong Qingcheng looked very calm. She pushed out her long and slim palm, shattering the ice blade instantly. In the next moment, a wave of invisible ripple instantly landed on Bing Ling's protective zhen Qi layer, bringing up piles of ice shards. Such a powerful attack had shocked a lot of young warriors. The Sky Demon Power Field was shapeless and hard to defend against. In the previous competitions, most of the people had been caught by Murong Qingcheng through the air, which made them feel dizzy.
