"Isn't it strange?" Lin Yu looked at the inverted mountain peaks and the silvery-white waterfalls that flowed to the sky.
Isn't it strange for the mountains and rivers to be inverted?
Although Lin Yu was an ancient expert and had experienced countless unbelievable things, it was not easy to witness such a scene where the mountains and rivers were inverted.
However, Lin Yu did not continue asking about this. After all, everyone had their own thoughts.
Just like the same painting, different people would see different artistic conception when looking at it.
Nangong Mu looked at his surroundings, bit by bit, from left to right. He looked very carefully, not letting go of a single detail.
Meanwhile, the duel in the arena was still going on.
Mu Qingfeng was indeed very powerful. He was at the peak of the Sage State and was once known as one of the most powerful individuals in the Holy Region. He was also the Pavilion Master of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, one of the five sects of the Holy Region.
Be it in terms of power or experience, he could be described as experienced and ruthless.
Kacha! One of the Monster King's arm was smashed by Mu Qingfeng's palm. He spat out a mouthful of blood and retreated continuously.
Evidently, none of the Monster Kings were Mu Qingfeng's match in a one-on-one battle.
Mo Shanshi's theory of 'a starving camel is still bigger than a horse' was still acceptable. Although he was severely injured in the battle with Qin Xian, he was fortunate enough to have some time to recuperate and heal himself. Therefore, he could still fight in a flurry now.
Under Mo Shanshi's brandishing of the giant black hammer, it could be said to be invincible, forcing the Demon King who was fighting against him to retreat step by step, sweat streaming down his face.
As for the Second Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion and the other elder of the Fu Xi Valley.
Both of them were equally relaxed.
The Second Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, in particular, waved the golden seal in his hand and enveloped Mu Qingfeng, Mo Shanshi and the other Monster Kings. Together with the golden sword on the golden seal, they were extremely helpful.
Fang Zhengzhi knew how powerful the Second Elder was.
The defense of the golden seal and the attack of the golden sword were definitely top-notch in terms of offense and defense. However, his cultivation state was slightly lower than Mu Qingfeng's.
"Attack!"
"We can't lose to them!"
"We must defeat these humans!"
The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race looked anxiously at the four Monster Kings who seemed to be at a disadvantage. Although they knew that they would definitely lose the duel when they saw Mu Qingfeng, they were unwilling to lose just like that.
However, the difference in strength was obvious.
Without the Godly State experts, the army of the Monster Race and Demon Race would not be able to fight against the Human Alliance no matter how powerful they were. The outcome of the competition was already decided.
The four Daemon Kings held on bitterly, but they still could not withstand the ferocious attacks of Mu Qingfeng and the others. In a short while, one of the Daemon Kings was heavily injured and could not get up.
The faces of the other three Monster Kings were also pale.
They also didn't want to lose, but Mu Qingfeng was too strong. Mu Qingfeng could indeed be called a top expert of the Saint Realm below the Divine State.
"Die!" Following Mu Qingfeng's cold shout, a finger sword struck the forehead of a Demon Monarch, sending the Demon Monarch flying.
The two Demon Monarchs were heavily injured.
The remaining two Demon Monarchs gritted their teeth. They wanted to risk their lives, but the outcome was already decided. Even if they risked their lives, could they really turn the situation around?
For some things, it was not about whether they wanted to risk their lives, but whether it was worth it.
It was obviously unwise to risk their lives for no reason.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Along with two loud thunders, seven golden swords pierced the bodies of the remaining two Demon Monarchs, creating a few bloody holes on their bodies.
Blood spurted out from the bodies of the two Demon Monarchs.
The ground was already dyed red.
As compared to the first duel between the Human Alliance and the troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race, the second duel was obviously much more tragic. The four Monster Monarchs were severely injured.
"We won!" Mu Qingfeng stepped on the chest of one of the Monster Monarchs and the finger sword in his hand shone with a dazzling radiance.
"…" The troops of the Monster Race and Demon Race fell silent.
Meanwhile, the four severely injured Monster Monarchs gritted their teeth. Although they were unwilling to admit defeat, the difference in strength was still very real.
"We admit defeat." The four Monster Monarchs looked at each other and admitted defeat at the same time.
"We won!"
"We actually won!"
"One loss and one win, we still have a chance!"
The disciples of the Human Alliance finally snapped out of their shock and cheered excitedly.
To them, they did not have any chance of winning the so-called best of three duels. However, the outcome was one win and one loss.
Meanwhile, Fang Zhengzhi had yet to appear on the Human Alliance's side.
There was hope!
There was really hope!
Never before had they felt so excited in their hearts. This was the feeling of seeing a ray of hope in the midst of despair, and it made them extremely excited.
Of course, amidst their excitement, their gazes involuntarily fell on a certain person.
Fang Zhengzhi!
The person who was extremely shameless in their eyes, the person whom the disciples of the Five Sects of the Holy Region despised and even despised.
Yet now, it was this person who helped them to find a ray of hope in the hopeless situation.
"Shameless brat, how did you guess that 'Chou Qi' would not send out a Godly State expert in the second duel?" Ping Yang also turned to look at Fang Zhengzhi. She could not hide the excitement in her clear eyes, but at the same time, she was extremely confused.
"That's because this Chou Qi is not that Chou Qi." Fang Zhengzhi smiled.
"This Chou Qi … is not that Chou Qi? What do you mean? "Ping Yang was even more confused.
Fang Zhengzhi did not continue to answer Ping Yang's question as he also did not understand why the Chou Qi in front of him was different from the Chou Qi in the past.
Inside …
What exactly happened?
"Ping Yang, shouldn't we settle our bet?" Wu Yuer's voice rang out at the same time. There was a smile in her jet-black eyes.
However, it was a smile that one would only see when one saw money.
She had easily obtained 100,000 taels of gold!
How could she not smile?
"Hmph!" Ping Yang pouted as if she was extremely unhappy. However, she felt a little helpless at the same time. She wanted to win against Wu Yuer, but she ended up losing.
How could she be happy?
However, Ping Yang was a good gambler and did not intend to renege on the bet. "I will not go back on my words. It's just 100,000 taels of gold. I will give it to you when I return to the palace of the Great Xia Dynasty."
"Thank you very much." Wu Yuer did not intend to question further as she knew that 100,000 taels of gold was nothing to Ping Yang.
…
Nangong Mu finally retracted his gaze. He did not continue to look at the inverted mountains and rivers. Instead, he slowly took two steps forward.
"One win and one loss. The outcome will depend on the third round." Nangong Mu said calmly and was not unhappy about losing the second round.
"Seems like it." Fang Zhengzhi nodded his head. Then, he slowly walked out from the crowd and stood in the middle of the field.
"Who are you going to fight with for the third round?" Nangong Mu asked again.
"Aren't you going to fight first in the third round?" Fang Zhengzhi smiled and looked at Lin Yu behind Nangong Mu.
"Hmm, that's true." Nangong Mu nodded and looked behind him.
Of course, Lin Yu knew what Nangong Mu meant. He quickly walked out of the Monster Race and Demon Army with two Monster Kings that he had chosen.
The two Monster Kings were the most powerful among the Monster Kings. They could be said to be the most powerful apart from Monster Emperor Baizhi.
One of the Monster Kings was almost as powerful as Mu Qingfeng.
It was a female monster who had transformed into an elegant man. Although she was a female monster, she was dressed in a snow-white male outfit and her face was terrifyingly fair.
If it weren't for the willow-like slender waist and the bulge in front of her chest, it would be impossible to tell her gender.
"Fang Zhengzhi, this Monster King is called 'Ling Ning'. She is the personal bodyguard of Monster Emperor Baizhi. She is very powerful and her real body is a Three Eyed Poisonous Toad. Her attack speed is extremely fast. Also, be careful of her third eye!" Mu Qingfeng reminded the female monster when he saw her.
"Poisonous toad? She's a toad? "Fang Zhengzhi looked at the female demon named 'Ling Ning' and sighed to himself. Indeed …..
One should not judge a monster by its appearance.
Such a terrifyingly fair female monster was a toad?
"Toad?" Mu Qingfeng was speechless. Fang Zhengzhi was probably the only person in the Holy Region who dared to describe the powerful three-eyed poisonous toad as a toad.
However, it was not the time to talk about this.
That was because when Ling Ning walked out, Mu Qingfeng knew that the Monster Race and Demon Race had reserved their powers for the second round of the competition.
This meant that the Monster Race and Demon Race had placed all their bets on the third round.
One round to determine the winner!
"Fang Zhengzhi, these two Monster Kings are not simple. Even old man Mo and I do not dare to say that we can win them within a hundred moves. Who are you going to send out to fight with you?" After hesitating for a moment, Mu Qingfeng finally asked the question in his heart carefully.
Meanwhile, Mo Shanshi and the surrounding disciples of the Human Alliance looked at Fang Zhengzhi.
The winner would be determined by this round.
Hence, they could not reserve their powers.
"Yan Xiu," said Fang Zhengzhi.
"Hmm … Sure, what else?" Mu Qingfeng paused for a moment before nodding his head. Even though Yan Xiu was young, his abilities were already comparable to his own.
Moreover, Yan Xiu was Fang Zhengzhi's friend.
The two of them had great teamwork.
Mu Qingfeng did not object to Yan Xiu fighting in the third round of the competition.
"Then, I will have to trouble Grandpa Yan." Fang Zhengzhi turned to look at Yan Qianli without hesitation.
"Yan Qianli?" Mu Qingfeng was surprised.
That was because although Yan Qianli was a powerful individual of the Sage State, he had not been a sage for long and had only reached the initial stage of the Sage State.
Although Yan Qianli had mastered the Dao of Asura of the Six Rebirth Dao Techniques, he was still a distance away from the powerful elders of the Five Sects of the Holy Region.
Mu Qingfeng was not the only one who was surprised. Mo Shanshi and even Yan Qianli himself were shocked when they heard Fang Zhengzhi's words.
"Are you sure?" Mu Qingfeng asked again.
"Hmm." Fang Zhengzhi nodded.
"Alright, we will do as you say. Prince Yan, please!" Although Mu Qingfeng was confused by Fang Zhengzhi's nod, he did not ask further.
Mo Shanshi had the intention to speak.
However, after hearing Mu Qingfeng's words, he swallowed back the words that were at the tip of his tongue. In the end, he didn't say anything.
"I have a suggestion for the last candidate, Elder 'Gu Yuan' of Fu Xi Valley. You should have met him once at the Heaven Dao Pavilion previously. Elder Gu, it's up to you whether the Human Alliance can win the third round!" Mu Qingfeng said after he finished speaking.
"I will definitely fight to the death!" Elder Gu Yuan of the Fu Xi Valley, who had been standing behind Mo Shanshi, quickly walked out from the crowd.
"Elder Gu, tell Fang Zhengzhi about your abilities in detail. Remember to protect Yan Xiu and Yan Qianli!" Mo Shanshi instructed.
"Alright, my Dao cultivation is …"
"There's no need for that. I have already decided on the fourth candidate, Ping Yang." Fang Zhengzhi interrupted Gu Yuan before he could finish his sentence.
"Ping Yang?!" Mo Shanshi was shocked.
Apart from him, the surrounding disciples of the Human Alliance were also shocked as though they had heard something unbelievable.
"How could it be Ping Yang?!"
"How old is she? Even though she has entered the Sage State, her foundation is not stable!"
"Be it in terms of foundation, Enlightenment State or even experience, they are far apart. Wouldn't Ping Yang lose the third round for sure?"
The disciples of the Human Alliance obviously did not believe it.
Meanwhile, Mu Qingfeng smiled bitterly when he heard Fang Zhengzhi's words.
He had been beside Fang Zhengzhi all along and naturally heard what Fang Zhengzhi said to Ping Yang and the rest. He wanted Ping Yang to fight the third round.
Because he heard what Fang Zhengzhi said, he didn't ask for Fang Zhengzhi's last choice and arranged for Gu Yuan to fight instead.
After all, the third round was too important.
Ping Yang?
Wasn't that a joke?
When Fang Zhengzhi suggested Yan Qianli to fight the third round, Mu Qingfeng actually had some objections. However, he did not voice out his opinion.
The reason was that although Yan Qianli was not as powerful as the other elders of the Five Sects of the Holy Region, Yan Qianli and Yan Xiu were close.
Both of them had a tacit understanding with each other. This was crucial.
Most importantly, even though Yan Qianli's cultivation level was slightly lower, his battle experience was not bad. In fact, it could even be said that he was extremely experienced. After all, Yan Qianli was a soldier who had been through hundreds of battles. It could be said that Yan Qianli's techniques had been honed through the fires of battle.
Although such a person's strength was slightly lacking, he was still considered suitable.
However, what about Ping Yang?
