Just like that, Murong Xue defeated her four opponents with an overwhelming advantage and ended the fifth group's competition.
After Murong Xue left the stage, she headed straight for Lin Yun and greeted Lin Yun in a friendly manner. "Lin Yun, long time no see." rdquo;
"Mm, long time no see." Lin Yun replied indifferently, then exchanged a few words with Murong Xue.
When she saw the two of them chatting away, a strange expression appeared on Yun Ruoxi's face. She couldn't help but look at Murong Xue.
She wasn't clear about the relationship between Murong Xue and Lin Yun, but judging from Murong Xue's attitude towards Lin Yun, she could tell that Murong Xue had a good impression of him.
As Murong Xue chatted with Lin Yun, she would occasionally glance at Yun Ruoxi. She couldn't help but compare herself to Yun Ruoxi.
After a round of comparison, Murong Xue discovered that Yun Ruoxi was superior to her in both appearance and temperament.
If she were to compete with Yun Ruoxi, she felt that she had no chance at all.
Amidst this awkward atmosphere, the sixth group's competition finally began.
The sixth group also included one of the six great geniuses. He was Nangong Luo, who was known to possess an absolute defense.
Nangong Luo was a skinny and weak youth. Based on his appearance, it was difficult to associate him with the genius with an absolute defense.
But when Nangong Luo's martial soul appeared, he seemed to have transformed into a completely different person.
His martial soul was a gourd made out of sand, filled with an almost limitless amount of sand.
The sand poured out of the gourd in torrents, forming a hollow ball of sand around his body, completely enveloping him.
This ball of sand was extremely dense, and its structure was several times stronger than metal. No matter how the four opponents attacked, they couldn't leave a single mark on the surface of the ball of sand.
Even if marks were left on the surface of the ball of sand, the ball of sand would quickly repair itself and eventually return to its original state.
At the same time as the four people attacked the sand ball, Nangong Luo's Martial Soul once again spewed out a large amount of sand, forming an overwhelming sand waterfall wave, sweeping towards the four opponents.
The four opponents leapt up at the same time, wanting to cross the sandfall and the waves to attack Nangong Luo.
However, the moment they crossed the sand waterfall, the sand waterfall instantly transformed into dozens of sand hands, reaching out towards the sky and grabbing them.
The few of them were dragged into the sea of sand by the sand hand. Tons of sand pressed against them from the outside, and they soon lost consciousness under the pressure.
The battle of the sixth group ended in this way. Nangong Luo defeated his opponent by an overwhelming margin and successfully entered the finals.
There were only two groups left.
Among the six great geniuses, only Shangguan Zihua did not appear.
Similarly, Lin Yun had yet to appear.
Therefore, there was a 50% chance that Lin Yun would meet Shangguan Zihua.
However, in the end, it was still staggered. Shangguan Zihua was assigned to the seventh group, while Lin Yun was left to the last group.
Like most of the Shangguan clan's disciples, Shangguan Zihua also had the image of a weak scholar. However, in his hand, he was always holding a three-foot long giant brush.
After the competition began, Shangguan Zihua directly activated his Essence to condense his Martial Soul, which was a picture scroll that blossomed with blue light.
This picture scroll could change its size at will according to Shangguan Zihua's thoughts. It could shrink to the size of an ordinary picture scroll, or stretch to the size of a bed, or even several times larger.
After the picture scroll was stretched to the size of a bed, Shangguan Zihua immediately used his Innate Ink Qi to condense the inky gaseous energy, forming a high concentration of inky liquid energy, and adhered to the tip of the giant brush.
Then, he used the giant brush to draw on the picture scroll at an unimaginable speed.
In the blink of an eye, he completed a work of art. It was a mighty lion.
When the giant brush left the picture scroll, the picture scroll shone with bright light, and formed a strange energy.
This strange energy was like magic, it actually made the lion on the picture scroll materialize, and transform into a real inky lion.
"Roar! The inky lion let out a roar, and fiercely pounced towards the four opponents.
When the four saw this, they all dodged, and did not dare to fight the inky lion head on.
This inky lion was not an ordinary lion. It was formed by a high concentration of Innate Ink Qi, and it had an extremely strong corrosive power. With just a light touch, the human body would immediately be corroded into dry bones!
It was just a black lion, but it had chased the four of them all over the stage. However, Shangguan Zihua did not have the intention to stop. He continued to pick up the brush, and started drawing on the picture scroll smoothly. After a while, he finished another eagle spreading its wings.
After a strange energy fluctuation flashed, the eagle that had spread its wings was also materialized in a state of high concentration of energy.
Under the double attacks of the inky eagle and the inky lion, the four were quickly forced into a dead end, and had no choice but to give up.
Shangguan Zihua looked the most elegant, but his attacks were also the most fatal. No one dared to be hit by his attacks.
The seventh group's battle ended without any suspense. Shangguan Zihua defeated the four opponents with an overwhelming advantage, and obtained the qualification to enter the finals.
Next was the eighth group's battle, which was also the last group's battle in the semifinals.
The invigilator came to the Wuan Gate, opened the scroll in his hand, and announced in front of everyone.
"The participants of the eighth group are …"
"Nangong Clan's core disciple, Nangong Chen. rdquo;
"Shangguan Clan's core disciple, Shangguan Rui Xu. rdquo;
"Hua Clan's core disciple, Hua Mo Yuan. rdquo;
"Wang Clan's young master, Wang Tian Long. rdquo;
"Yuzhou Martial House's core disciple, Lin Yun. rdquo;
Although the last group didn't have the six great geniuses, the lineup was still quite strong.
Whether it was Nangong Chen, Shangguan Ruixu, or Hua Moyuan, they had all reached the middle of the ninth level. They were the top core disciples of the family, second only to the six great geniuses.
The young master of the Wang family, Wang Tianlong, was also an opponent whose strength was difficult to estimate.
The Wang family was second only to the three great families of the kingdom. Together with the Murong family, they could be said to be the fifth great family of the kingdom.
Although the Wang family's foundation was far from the Three Great Clans of the Kingdom and the Murong family, it was still much stronger than the other clans. Naturally, the geniuses in the family wouldn't be too far off.
Three years ago, Wang Tianlong's talent and strength were very ordinary. However, because of the uniqueness of his Martial Soul, he was accepted as a disciple by an inner sect elder of a certain sect.
After three years, he had returned to the kingdom to participate in the Royal City Martial Arts Tournament. No one knew exactly how strong he was.
