When the eighth round began, the names of all the Martial Cultivators who had a winning streak so far appeared in front of everyone, causing them to gasp in surprise.
Including Long Yu and the others, there were a total of 45 people who had a winning streak so far. There was no doubt that these 45 people would be the final contenders for the championship.
"That Long Yu is the one who became the direct disciple of the Scarlet Emperor a year ago. Now, he is only at the late stage of the King Realm. But this time, he should be the strongest in the King Realm."
"Yes, it's said that he defeats his opponents with a single move in every battle. He's very powerful. His true strength has definitely reached the middle stage of the Emperor Realm, or even higher."
"Hehe, that's just because he's lucky and hasn't encountered any strong opponents. Now there are a total of 45 people who have a winning streak. He's not the only strong one. It's hard to say who will be the champion this time. The genius of our Longhua Sect, Gu Feichen, also has a winning streak. If he meets Long Yu, it's very likely that he'll be able to defeat him. "
The millions of King Realm experts who were watching the battle began to discuss among themselves. They were all paying attention to the 45 people who had a winning streak. Not everyone was optimistic about Long Yu.
Among these 45 people, there were many geniuses from the Six Sects and Ten Nations. There were also many experts from other countries and sects who had obtained some inheritance from ancient ruins by chance, causing their strength to soar.
The eighth round!
The rules were the same, but to everyone's surprise, two people who had a winning streak were arranged to fight together. It was Long Yu, who had the highest chance of winning the championship, and Gu Feichen, the genius of the Longhua Sect from the Taiwu Empire.
The battle began. At this moment, almost all the King Realm experts were watching the battle!
… …
Long Yu was teleported to the layer of space where the battle was taking place. He discovered that this was a void with a radius of a hundred miles. It was pitch black all around, without any light. Similarly, it was impossible to see the existence of others with the naked eye.
The corner of Long Yu's mouth curled up slightly. In such an environment, he had a natural advantage. Gu Feichen of the Taiwu Empire probably couldn't even find a trace of him!
"Balanced Control, level 5!"
With a thought from Long Yu, the various energy fluctuations emanating from his body were completely concealed. At the same time, he unleashed Shadowshadow Eye to scan his surroundings.
Just as he was doing this, in the void twenty kilometers away from him, an ancient ray of light suddenly erupted. It was the Taiwu Empire's Gu Feichen, who had directly used the Light Divine Rune technique to illuminate a large portion of the void.
"It might be inconvenient for the spectators to watch the battle in such a dark place, but it's much better now."
Gu Feichen, who was dressed in a simple grey robe, appeared in the light and said indifferently, "Long Yu, everyone will witness your defeat. Remember my name, Gu Feichen of the Taiwu Empire!"
As soon as he said this, the millions of spectators went into an uproar. This Gu Feichen was indeed arrogant and was worthy of being called a genius from the Taiwu Empire. Putting everything else aside, the fact that he was able to make it all the way to the eighth round without being defeated meant that his strength was unquestionable.
However, after he said this, there was no movement from Long Yu, nor did he appear in the light in the middle of the void. This made Gu Feichen frown slightly.
He felt that something was amiss, mainly because he could not sense any aura from Long Yu. It was as if he was the only person in the entire void.
Could it be that Long Yu had not come in?
Impossible!
Gu Feichen was very confident in his detection ability, but now, he was a little nervous. Although he looked arrogant on the surface, he was actually extremely vigilant.
"Long Yu, you're not speaking or appearing. Are you afraid of me, Gu Feichen? If you're afraid, just admit defeat. Don't be a coward! "
Gu Feichen's voice continued. After a while, there was still no movement from Long Yu, causing many spectators to feel slightly disappointed. Was Long Yu really a coward? He actually did not dare to appear in the face of Long Yu?
It was fine if he did not appear, but now he was not even replying …
However, just as more and more spectators were getting impatient, a shadow suddenly appeared behind Gu Feichen. The void was originally illuminated by Gu Feichen's Divine Light Characters, but now, a thick, pitch-black fog suddenly appeared and enveloped Gu Feichen.
In almost an instant, the shadow of the black fog emitted the protective light of the Ruler Life Token. Immediately, everyone saw the result of the battle: Long Yu, victory!
These three simple words appeared on the screen, causing the spectators to be dumbfounded.
One move, it was still one move.
Even though Long Yu was facing the extremely arrogant genius of the Tai Wu Empire, Gu Feichen, he only used one move to directly defeat him. Most importantly, no one could see what technique Long Yu had used!
At this moment, everyone knew that Long Yu was not a coward. Instead, when facing such an opponent, he did not even have the mood to speak. He directly attacked and defeated him in one move. No matter how much you talk, you will only be humiliated!
Many people had witnessed Gu Feichen's combat strength. When dealing with some formidable advanced-stage King Realm experts, Gu Feichen's imposing aura was extremely grand and powerful, and he was capable of completely suppressing his opponent before deciding the outcome of the battle within three moves.
Originally, everyone thought that with Gu Feichen's combat strength, he would be able to contend with Long Yu for a while. But now, it seemed that he was still far from it.
As expected of the Red Emperor's personal disciple!
…
In fact, even the other personal disciples of the Red Emperor, such as Xing Fa, Dao Jingtian, and so on, were now watching Long Yu's battle with their eyes wide open in disbelief.
Gu Feichen was a genius of the Tai Wu Empire!
"Seventh Junior Brother is too awesome!"
Fatty Yu Linfeng chuckled and a wretched look appeared in his eyes. "Seven years ago, when I was still in the King Stage late-stage, I also participated in the Strongest King Stage Competition. Unfortunately, I only got eleventh place and lost to a genius from one of the Six Sects and Ten Countries … Now, facing the same genius from the Six Sects and Ten Countries, Seventh Junior Brother can actually defeat him in one move. It's really terrifying!"
"I've heard of that Gu Feichen before. His strength is indeed not bad. It is said that he is also expected to set foot on the twentieth floor of the Illusion Dimension of the Five Emperors and become a personal disciple of the Five Emperors … Unfortunately, he is still far from Seventh Junior Brother."
Xing Fa nodded with satisfaction in his eyes. Long Yu's combat strength was extremely terrifying. It was not in vain that he had collected so many first-class Divine Rune crystals for Long Yu.
"If that's the case, Seventh Junior Brother's goal is definitely not just to be first in the Strongest King Stage Competition, but the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition."
The fourth personal disciple of the Red Emperor, Nalan Jun, had a look of surprise in his eyes. "Seventh Junior Brother is now in the King Stage late-stage. He only needs one more step to reach the Emperor Stage and he will be qualified to participate in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition … In addition, he has challenged the Qin Family Patriarch, the Gongsun Family Patriarch, and Ji Haokong of the Water Moon Sword Sect to death last year. I can guarantee that this kid definitely wants to be first in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition!"
"His ambition is not small."
The second personal disciple of the Red Emperor, Dao Jingtian, smiled. "However, the competition for the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition is much more intense than the Strongest King Stage Competition. Even if he can easily become first in the Strongest King Stage Competition, he will not be able to become first in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition."
"Let's keep watching. If Seventh Junior Brother really wants to participate in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition, then there will be a good show to watch. Our Sixth Junior Sister is still suppressing her cultivation for the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition. She hasn't broken through to the Emperor Realm yet."
Next to Yu Linfeng, a woman with a graceful figure narrowed her eyes and smiled.
This woman was Yu Xiaoyin, Yu Linfeng's older sister and the third personal disciple of the Red Emperor! Yu Xiaoyin was dressed in a long purple dress that was extremely eye-catching. Her figure was exquisite, and her posture was exquisite. If she were to walk outside, she would definitely become the center of attention.
The 'Sixth Junior Sister' she spoke of was, of course, Yu Hanxin.
In order to participate in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition and win the opportunity to compete with the geniuses from beyond the heavens, Yu Hanxin had chosen to suppress her cultivation realm. She was still in the Late Emperor Stage Competition.
If Long Yu really wanted to participate in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition … then he would definitely run into Yu Hanxin!
One had to admit that the Red Emperor's personal disciples' guesses were quite accurate. After all, they were all geniuses. Even if they guessed that Long Yu wanted to participate in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition, they wouldn't be too surprised.
But if this news were to spread out, it would most likely shock everyone.
Participating in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition was something that had never happened before. Even if it had, it would be a complete joke. No one had ever obtained a good ranking in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition when they had just stepped into the Emperor Realm. Most of them were eliminated in the first two rounds.
If Long Yu really wanted to do this, then how high would he be able to rank in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition?
… …
If Long Yu said that he wanted to become the first in the Strongest Emperor Stage Competition, then everyone would probably think that he was crazy and overestimating himself.
But in reality, that was exactly what he wanted!
After defeating Gu Feichen, everyone in the courtyard looked at Long Yu with a completely different gaze. If it was said that Long Yu had defeated his opponent in a single move, it was still understandable. However, now that he had defeated Gu Feichen in a single move, it was unbelievable.
The move that Long Yu had used was the Nine Underworld Heavenly Light. After condensing the Nine Underworld Heavenly Light, he immediately activated the Nine Underworld Blades and attacked Gu Feichen from all directions.
Gu Feichen discovered that the Divine Rune of Space had been blocked, and he couldn't dodge the blades. He tried to block them, but he discovered that his defensive methods were completely useless against the blades. In a hurry, he activated the King's Life Tablet to save his life and admitted defeat at the same time.
If he had been one step slower, Gu Feichen would have died without a doubt!
