Countless eyes were focused on Xuanyuan Yuncong, waiting for him to speak.
On the spectator stand, Gongsun Shengji's expression was ugly, a bitter smile hanging on his lips. At this moment, the scene in front of him was very similar to the time when he had been forced by Nie Tian to hold the Evil Edge Sword Duel in the Asura Sword Field.
Nie Tian was still Nie Tian, but the person he forced was Xuanyuan Yuncong instead of Gongsun Shengji.
Beside Gongsun Shengji, Xuanyuan Liufeng's expression was even uglier. He didn't know what to do. Xuanyuan Yuncong was a genius of the new generation of the Xuanyuan family, regarded as the hope of the family's rise. However, he couldn't lose the Xuanyuan family's reputation. He couldn't go back on his word in front of the nine domain swordsmen.
Gongsun Shengji and the others saw it with their own eyes. How could they give Xuanyuan Liufeng a chance to go back on his word?
"Xuanyuan Yuncong, have you thought it through?" At this moment, Nie Tian's voice resounded again, echoing in the void. It was very ear-piercing.
Xuanyuan Yuncong's eyes trembled slightly, and his expression changed. Then, he made up his mind and said seriously, "The swordsmen of the Xuanyuan family mean what they say! Since I, Xuanyuan Yuncong, have lost, I will accept my defeat. I will withdraw from the Evil Edge Sword Competition, and I will promise you three things unconditionally, Nie Tian. "
After saying this, Xuanyuan Yuncong's expression calmed down a lot.
Although he was arrogant, he still had the pride of a swordsman. He could afford to lose, and he could also afford to die!
"Very good." Nie Tian smiled faintly and looked at Xuanyuan Yuncong with a burning gaze. "Xuanyuan Yuncong, you're not too stupid. You made the right choice."
Although Nie Tian had given Xuanyuan Yuncong a chance to go back on his word, he didn't have any chance to do so.
Gongsun Shengji and the others were watching from the side. How could he allow the Xuanyuan family to go back on their word in front of the nine domains?
"Nie Tian, I will withdraw from the Evil Peak Sword Competition." Xuanyuan Yuncong calmed down and said, "Tell me, what do you want me to do?"
Nie Tian's reaction was very strange. He smiled faintly and said: "Xuanyuan Yuncong, continue to participate in the Evil Peak Sword Competition. We'll talk about other things later."
"Hmm?" Xuanyuan Yuncong was stunned for a moment. After a long while, he reacted and asked, "Nie Tian, what do you mean?"
"What I mean is, let you continue to participate in the Evil Edge Sword Competition. That's the first thing I want you to do. As for the other two things, I haven't thought about them yet. We'll talk about them later." Nie Tian smiled faintly as a different expression appeared in his eyes.
"This …" Xuanyuan Yuncong's mouth was wide open, but no words came out.
He didn't expect that the first thing Nie Tian wanted him to do would be this. He felt as if he had just ascended from hell to heaven.
"Nie Tian, that's a beautiful show of kindness and power." The corners of Gongsun Shengji's mouth rose slightly as he exclaimed inwardly from the spectator stand.
Nie Tian's way of dealing with Xuanyuan Yuncong was a classic show of kindness and power. First, he pushed the latter to the lowest point, then he gave the latter a huge benefit to make the latter feel grateful.
The Evil Peak Sword Competition was definitely a very important event for Xuanyuan Yuncong. It was also his biggest goal in coming to the Divine Martial City.
He was pleasantly surprised that Nie Tian gave him another chance to participate in the Evil Peak Sword Competition.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Liufeng's expression was very strange. Of course, he could tell that Nie Tian was playing the "slap a slap and give a candy" trick. It had to be said that Nie Tian's method was very powerful. It was especially suitable for an arrogant and impulsive person like Xuanyuan Yuncong.
Xuanyuan Liufeng could see that Nie Tian didn't seem to be hostile. Instead, he seemed to want to rope Xuanyuan Yuncong in.
Xuanyuan Liufeng faintly felt that Xuanyuan Yuncong losing to Nie Tian might not be a bad thing. Perhaps this was an opportunity for him.
As for what kind of opportunity it was, Xuanyuan Liufeng didn't know.
"Nie Tian is too terrifying. He's so young, but not only is he strong and talented, he's also very shrewd." Xuanyuan Liufeng looked at Nie Tian from afar and said in his heart, "Such a person can only be befriended and not offended."
Nie Tian humiliated Xuanyuan Yuncong in front of everyone. This greatly suppressed the Xuanyuan Family. At this moment, Xuanyuan Liufeng didn't want to take revenge. Instead, he wanted to befriend Xuanyuan Yuncong.
"Xuanyuan Yuncong, prepare for the Evil Peak Sword Competition. I'm looking forward to the battle with you." Nie Tian glanced at Xuanyuan Yuncong and turned to leave, leaving Xuanyuan Yuncong standing there. He couldn't react for a long time.
The small disturbance was settled just like that.
Next, the sword stone test continued.
There weren't many swordsmen left. Many of them passed the test, but their performances were nothing compared to Nie Tian's.
After the sword stone test ended, more than ninety percent of the sixty to seventy thousand participants were eliminated. Only less than five thousand made it to the next round of the Evil Peak Sword Competition.
After a day, the sword stone test ended. Next up was the Swordsman Competition.
The so-called Swordsman Competition was a battle of points between the participating swordsmen. The top sixteen swordsmen would be decided.
The Swordsman Competition would last for a few days. Five thousand participants would fight against each other. The winner wouldn't get any points, while the loser would get one point. If a swordsman's points reached three points, he would be eliminated.
The Swordsman Competition would decide the top sixteen swordsmen. They would enter the Sword Chief Competition.
It was obvious how difficult it was to enter the top sixteen from the five thousand genius swordsmen.
The next day, the Evil Peak Sea was crowded.
Today was the first day of the Swordsman Competition. Those swordsmen who didn't pass the sword stone test didn't leave. They stayed to watch the Swordsman Competition.
The Swordsman Competition was different from the sword stone test. The swordsmen's opponent wasn't the sword stone, but the swordsmen.
The battle between swordsmen was a matter of life and death.
Although the Swordsman Competition wasn't a life and death battle, all the swordsmen would give it their all in order to advance to the top sixteen. Therefore, life and death battles were common.
The Swordsman Competition was a random duel. At this moment, many people were discussing who they didn't want to face the most.
In the end, they came to the conclusion that the opponent they didn't want to face was Nie Tian.
In this Evil Peak Sword Competition, Nie Tian was already in the limelight. On top of that, during the sword stone test yesterday, he had created a thousand-meter sword scar. This made everyone realize how strong he was.
As a result, Nie Tian was the most terrifying opponent in the hearts of most swordsmen.
However, there were always exceptions to everything. At this moment, a skinny swordsman said with a disdainful look on his face, "That guy named Nie Tian only has the strength of a highgod. I don't believe he's really that strong. The Divine Martial Sword Rock has always been strange. Perhaps his sword intent is especially suited to attacking it, which is why he can leave behind a thousand-meter scar. "
"The Swordsman Competition is different. Victory depends on true strength. I refuse to believe that I can't defeat a piece of trash who's only a higher god with my strength as a late Overgod! "
The person's voice was very loud, attracting the attention of everyone. Many people looked at him like he was an idiot.
